The Common Man's Return in Chinese Entertainment

After the four of them joked around for a while, Zhu Yawen asked curiously, "Brother Chicken, what did your company say?"

Ji Qingxu said nonchalantly, "Never mind me."

The three looked at each other in bewilderment upon hearing this answer.

"in spite of?"

"対."

Pointing to the newspaper, Luo Jin asked curiously, "This news didn't affect you?"

Ji Qingxu smiled and shrugged. "Am I married? Do I have a girlfriend? Is she married? Does she have a boyfriend?"

The three of them were taken aback by Ji Qingxu's question.

"Brother Chicken, you mean since you're both single, it won't be a problem even if you have sex?"

"We only had drinks together once and went to the same hotel, what could be the problem?"

"Damn, Chicken Bro, you're really stubborn."

"But what Brother Chicken said makes sense. If we encounter a similar situation in the future, we can do the same as him."

"Old Lu, you've gone bad."

Lu Fang-sheng laughed and said, "I was just giving an example. Brother Chicken is so outstanding, is it wrong for me to learn from him?"

Zhu Yawen and Luo Jin exchanged a glance and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, it's always good to learn from Brother Chicken."

Seeing this, Ji Qingxu shook his head with amusement.

"Ring ring!"

Hearing the phone ring, Ji Qingxu picked up his phone, glanced at it, and raised an eyebrow. Noticing the gossipy looks on Zhu Yawen's and the other two's faces, Ji Qingxu got up, walked to the balcony, and closed the door.

"Feed..."

"Ji Qingxu, you bastard..."

"Beep beep beep!"

I glanced at the phone that had just been hung up, and less than ten seconds later, the call came in again.

Ji Qingxu answered the phone with a smile.

"Ji Qingxu, you bastard..."

"Beep beep beep!"

After hanging up the phone, Ji Qingxu opened the balcony door and gestured, "Give me a cigarette."

Seeing Ji Qingxu's calm expression, Zhu Yawen quickly picked up a pack of cigarettes and a lighter from the table and handed them to him. Ji Qingxu took the cigarettes, nodded, and closed the balcony door again.

Seeing Ji Qingxu light a cigarette and turn away again, Zhu Yawen whispered, "Did Brother Ji's girlfriend call?"

Luo Jin replied while looking towards the balcony, "Maybe, but didn't Brother Chicken say he doesn't have a girlfriend?"

Lu Fang-sheng whispered, "Could it be a call from that Golden Horse Award-winning actress?"

"Impossible! ×2"

Zhu Yawen and Luo Jin replied in unison.

......

"Ji Qingxu, if you hang up on me again, believe me, I'll go back to Beijing and bite you to death!"

"letter."

"Hmph, he's really something, he actually slept with a Golden Horse Award-winning actress."

"Don't talk nonsense, we just had a drink together."

"Get lost! Do you think I'm stupid? You think you can hold back after drinking?"

"I did all this for both of us."

"..."

"Don't believe me? The TV series we both starred in has already started airing. Have you seen any news about it airing?"

"Should I thank you?"

"Of course, I asked you to help me with this publicity stunt before, but you said you had something to do and couldn't come back. I sacrificed so much, and you still scolded me. As expected, the most vicious heart is that of a woman."

"Damn it, Ji Qingxu, your skin is thicker than a city wall."

"If you curse at me again, I'll kill you next time."

"Get lost, I'm not sleeping with you."

"Then I'll go sleep with someone else."

"Ji Qingxu, do you believe I'll castrate you?"

"If you don't believe me, you won't be able to bear it."

"Tch, shameless."

"I only want you."

"Pah, I'm not a Golden Horse Award winner, how could a big star like you possibly look up to me?"

"No sarcastic or sarcastic remarks allowed."

"Yes, I want to. You can sleep with me but I can't say?"

"Even if I wanted to sleep with you, I couldn't."

"Can't you come visit the set?"

"Okay, I'll visit the set this weekend. Where are you filming right now?"

"You heartless bastard, you don't even know where the movie is being filmed, and this movie is even produced by your company."

"Our company's play? What play?"

"The Lofty Ambition of Bao Zheng"

"The Bao Zheng series?"

I guess so.

"Okay, I got it. I'll come over on Saturday."

"You're really coming?"

"Then I won't come."

"Ji Qingxu!!!"

"Haha, just kidding. I'll be coming to visit you this Saturday. Get all clean and ready for me."

"Beep beep beep!"

Hearing the phone hang up, Ji Qingxu couldn't help but find it amusing. This woman, if she wanted him to visit the set, she had to go through such a long and roundabout way.

Out of the corner of his eye, Ji Qingxu glanced at the three people watching the show in the dormitory, then calmly opened the balcony door and walked in.

Zhu Yawen and the other two exchanged glances and cautiously asked, "Brother Chicken, are you alright?"

Ji Qingxu smiled faintly, "It's nothing."

The three exchanged glances, and Luo Jin said with a smile, "Brother Chicken, are you free tonight? It's my treat, let's go have a couple of drinks."

Ji Qingxu blinked and looked at the three of them. "Okay."

......

"Brother Chicken, come on, cheers!"

"Still drinking?"

"Drink, I'll keep you company today."

"Okay, let's do it."

"Dry."

After Zhu Yawen finished drinking, he grinned and then slid down with a thud. Ji Qingxu immediately reached out and grabbed him.

Ji Qingxu glanced at Luo Jin and Lu Fang Sheng, who were already drunk and asleep on the table, and chuckled.

These three were noobs, but thinking about how they had kept him company with one drink after another, Ji Qingxu smiled and got up to leave the private room.

After a while, Ji Qingxu returned to the private room and, as before, carried the three of them out.

......

The crew of "The Legend of Bao Qingtian" at Shanghai Shengqiang Film and Television Base.

"Bingbing, someone's been visiting the set."

Upon seeing the production assistant enter the makeup room and utter those words, Fan Xiaopang, who had just finished his makeup, asked in surprise, "Who's here to visit the set?"

The production assistant smiled mysteriously, "You'll see when you get out; your friend has quite the budget."

Fan Xiaopang was stunned when he heard this. Was it Ji Qingxu, that little rascal?

So Fan Xiaopang quickly got up and walked outside.

Upon arriving at the film set, Fan Xiaopang saw a group of people crowding in front of what looked like a truck or a food truck, making a lot of noise. He could clearly smell a strong aroma in the air, somewhat like the scent of wheat with a hint of coffee. Fan Xiaopang stopped and immediately scanned the area.

When he saw the familiar figure chatting and laughing with Gao Hu, Fan Xiaopang's eyes lit up. This bastard is still so unreliable.

Seeing that Ji Qingxu had noticed him and waved, Fan Xiaopang gave a haughty snort and slowed down to walk towards him.

"The leading lady has arrived. Thanks to Miss Fan, we are able to enjoy hot coffee and hot bread on this freezing day."

"Thank you, Sister Bingbing."

"Sister Bingbing, we're benefiting from your success."

"..."

Faced with everyone's gratitude and cheers, Fan Xiaopang smiled modestly and said, "I'm glad everyone likes it..."

Seeing the undisguised smile on Fan Xiaopang's face as he approached, Ji Qingxu asked with a smile, "So, you're satisfied with this set visit?"

Fan Xiaopang glared at Ji Qingxu, "Just buy some random things, how much money will this cost?"

Ji Qingxu smiled and glanced at the food truck making bread and coffee in the distance. "It's alright, just the salary for one movie."

Upon hearing this, Fan Xiaopang exclaimed in surprise, "So expensive!"

Seeing the crew happily drinking steaming coffee and eating bread, Fan Xiaopang leaned closer to Ji Qingxu and said, "I'll make it up to you tonight."

Upon hearing this, Ji Qingxu chuckled mischievously, "Paying off debts with one's body?"

Fan Xiaopang slapped him lightly, annoyed. "You're being indecent."

After saying that, he looked around and said, "Shall I show you some people?"

Ji Qingxu smiled and said, "No need, I already know them. Besides, don't you even know which company's crew this is?"

Fan Xiaopang retorted, "Why aren't you filming Ciwen's movies again? Don't you want to work with me anymore?"

Ji Qingxu said speechlessly, "Wasn't I clear enough before? I have to go to school."

Hearing this, Fan Xiaopang's face flashed with embarrassment, and he said in a coquettish tone, "I just wanted to cooperate with you!"

"Next time, next time for sure."

"You're just trying to coax me. You've already turned down two roles that would have allowed us to work together."

"There's nothing I can do. It'll be fine once I graduate. You know I just appeared on the Spring Festival Gala, and the whole school is watching me."

"He didn't even tell me he was going to be on the Spring Festival Gala, he has no conscience."

"Why didn't I tell you? You called me on New Year's Eve."

"I said before participating in the Spring Festival Gala."

"I signed a confidentiality agreement."

"Hmph, I'm not even worth as much as a piece of paper in your heart."

"Keep acting up, I'll teach you a lesson tonight."

Faced with Ji Qingxu's threat, Fan Xiaopang punched him in embarrassment and anger, "Don't mess around, I'm the female lead in this play, I have a lot of scenes every day."

"It's alright, I'll just ask Mr. Ma and Mr. Fan for leave."

Thinking of Ji Qingxu's shamelessness, Fan Xiaopang said coquettishly, "I'm being serious with you."

"Beg me."

"you......"
