At the beginning, Shen Yici and his girlfriend were almost at the stage of discussing marriage.

But he hid it very well, and few people in the circle knew about it. So when they saw Lu Qi and Shen Yici getting close during the filming, it was rumored that Shen Yici, who was not interested in women, finally fell in love.

-

At that time, Lu Qi had just entered the industry and really thought that Shen Yici was single, so she was not too averse to getting close to him.

To be honest, she admired this person very much. He always taught the actors how to act personally and was very serious and kind.

Even though he is the chief director, he still does the errands of the executive director.

On the day of wrapping, after finishing the last scene, Shen Yici shouted "Cut" and left his seat. The entire crew was excited, waiting for him to say the word "wrapped".

But he kept lingering by the window of the studio.

Someone couldn't sit still anymore and asked Lu Qi: "Boss Lu, why don't you go ask Director Shen? We don't dare to go."

At that time, Lu Qi joked: "Why would I dare to go? Bet I'm brave."

"Not really. Director Shen is still immersed in the play. When he's in it, none of us can talk to him. But you're different. You've interrupted him several times, but he didn't get angry."

"Okay, I'll try." With a skeptical heart, Lu Qi actually went to ask Shen Yici.

Sure enough, he didn't get angry when his train of thought was interrupted. When I asked him, it turned out that he was thinking about whether he had missed any scene.

Lu Qi smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, the filming is finished."

She has a poor long-term memory, but a very good short-term memory. She remembers every scene shot in the three months clearly.

After hearing this, Shen Yici felt relieved. In an instant, his excitement came out and he actually asked her, "Can I hug you?"

Lu Qi glanced at the people still waiting for news in the distance, tilted his head, and replied: "Not appropriate."

However, because of this rejection, Lu Qi has been feeling uneasy. After much thought, she bought him a watch at the wrap-up party. It was quite expensive, costing her more than 20 million yuan.

However, she didn't expect that not long after this thing was sent out, she heard news in the circle that Shen Yici's girlfriend committed suicide. Only then did she realize that he had a girlfriend and was engaged.

On the night of his suicide, Shen Yici was still texting her, asking her out for dinner the next day.

So, Lu Qi didn't go the next day and didn't contact Shen Yici again.

The news of her girlfriend's suicide was not reported in the newspapers, and even in the end, she didn't know the girl's name.

It was not until a year after the incident that Lu Qi received another call for cooperation with Shen Yici. He heard that his girlfriend had been rescued but was still lying in a vegetative state in the hospital.

When they met again, Shen Yici returned the watch to her. Lu Qi didn't take it back and said calmly, "Sell it and give it to the patient for treatment."

-

Thinking back, Lu Qi lazily leaned back in the director's chair, listening to what Shen Yici said now, and replied: "You are indeed not worthy of it."

"Pei Yao's flowers are all in the open, unlike you, who do such shameful things. You're eating what's in your bowl, thinking about what's in the pot, and you still pretend to be affectionate. Is that appropriate?"

Originally, I thought that since so many years had passed, Lu Qi didn't want to mention it and only talked about work.

But if he insisted on having a private affair with her, she would not give him any face.

Shen Yici was speechless: "I was despicable at the time. I didn't dare to break up with you, and I didn't dare to tell you the truth. But how many truths did Pei Yao tell me?"

Lu Qi smiled and looked at him without avoiding the question: "Yes, he never tells the truth. It's precisely because I hear all his lies that I like to believe him."

They are all lies, which makes it easier to understand because you don't have to guess whether he is lying or not.

What I’m afraid of is that it sounds like the truth but turns out to be completely false.

Shen Yici couldn't believe it: "Lu Qi, have you been bewitched by him? This is not what you want!"

"Do you know what I want?" Lu Qidan glanced at Shen Yici's impatient expression and stood up. "Don't presume to guess what I'm thinking. You don't understand me at all."

She is a monster in the darkness, longing for light.

There was also a moment when I wanted to enter the world and experience the emotions of normal people.

So when Shen Yici treated her well, she reciprocated and also thought about using the short five years to exchange for some warmth.

That was all she wanted, no emotions to be suppressed.

Even if Pei Yao was lying to her, she was willing to sink into depravity as she only had a few months left.

Just as he was about to leave, Shen Yici stopped him: "Does he really like you? Putting aside those scandals about him, wasn't his purpose in getting close to you back then for power?"

Lu Qi paused, she had not forgotten what Pei Yao had told her at the beginning, that he wanted to follow her for power, to enter the circle, and to take charge of the entire entertainment industry.

She was happy about this at first, but now she doesn't want to mention it.

"So what? He already got it."

Since he has already obtained it, and he is still with her, does he still want to squeeze out her surplus value?

Shen Yici said anxiously, "Lu Qi, believe me. Men love money, power, and sex, without exception, and his appetite is greater than anyone else's. With top-tier money and power, you are nothing more than a vassal to him. He wants you around just to satisfy his desires."

He didn't believe that a man with so much gossip could truly fall in love with a woman.

No, even saying I like it is a luxury.

Pei Yao wanted to leave Lu Qi because Lu Qi was the best.

Every man has this desire to conquer.

But often after we get something, we are the least likely to cherish it. The boredom after the pleasure comes faster than a storm.

Shen Yici became more and more anxious as he spoke. He grabbed Lu Qi's wrist and said, "She was discharged from the hospital last year. We broke up peacefully this time. Can you give me another chance?"

Lu Qi immediately pulled his hand away: "Director Shen, I never gave you a chance."

There was no way to talk any more. Lu Qi glanced at the scene that had just been filmed and said, "Let's go first. There are so many eyes on the crew. I'm not afraid of being laughed at."

After packing up my things, I said goodbye to Qi Hong and left the director's studio.

Lu Qi walked very fast.

To be honest, it's not necessarily true that Shen Yici's heart-wrenching words had no effect on her at all.

She has also been wondering recently what Pei Yao wants from her?

Shen Yici helped her find the answer. Although his intentions were ill-intentioned, they were very realistic. It seemed that it was this desire to conquer. Otherwise, she would not be able to explain what he really thought of her.

A liking, a crush, or... love? It's hilarious, how could it be possible?

Let’s not talk about Pei Yao for now. It’s not easy for ordinary people to fall in love with someone.

As I walked out of the filming set and arrived outside the venue, I suddenly heard a horn honking across the road.

Lu Qi looked in the direction of the sound and saw a Maybach with a Guangdong A license plate parked across the road.

The car window was open, and Chen Ang was sitting in the driver's seat in the front row. He was like a wooden stake, not saying a word, staring blankly at the street ahead.

Pei Yao placed his laptop on his lap in the back seat, looked at her sideways, and smiled: "You're out so early? It seems I'm not late."

Lu Qi walked over with some confusion, and suddenly thought of what he had just said to Shen Yici. He didn't say anything, but he inexplicably felt guilty.

Probably because Pei Yao asked her about Shen Yici when they were taking a bath before, she deliberately concealed what happened before, as if she was lying.

He asked tentatively, "When did you come?"

"It's been a while since I arrived." Pei Yao put the notebook aside with a smile on his face.

She had seen this smile before. He smiled like this the last time she fabricated a rumor about Lin Zixuan and him.

Lu Qi wanted to say something else when the car door suddenly opened and he suddenly pulled her into the car. Then he saw the door closed and she was sitting on his lap, held tightly in his arms.
