Dressed as a top-notch stand-in for the president

The matter between Ji Yu and Chu Nanxing was handled in a low-key manner by Wang Luoshui.

The director who filmed the relevant content on the spot also reached a contract with the program team, and both sides tried to suppress this matter as much as possible for the sake of publicity and reputation——

What's more, judging from the previous shots, Chu Nanxing did not deliberately pull Ji Yu back into the water, and the matter was more likely to be attributed to an accident... Besides, Chu Nanxing and Ji Yu had no grievances and no enmity, especially in front of everyone's eyes. Next, they are all people who want to make their debut, so they won't do such crazy things.

Combined with Chu Nanxing's background, everyone believed that this was just an accident.

Even if it wasn't for Ji Yu's deep hydrophobia, in fact, when she was pulled back into the water before, she would not have fainted and convulsed after choking on the water. It was confirmed.

The matter seemed to be concluded so flatly, without even causing any waves.

……

Yanxia Mountain Scenic Hotel, recording background.

Wang Luoshui pressed his head with a headache, looked at the various results of Ji Yu's examination in the hospital, sighed deeply, and said to Meng Rendong: "Did I have a wrong posture before I turned on the incense? It was the pig's head I bought. The offerings are not fresh enough?"

"Why do they encounter bloody disasters as soon as they go out?"

Meng Rendong was fiddling with his mobile phone beside him, and raised his brows noncommittally until he heard Wang Luoshui's next sentence: "Nan Xing is really..."

"I think it is necessary to find someone to counsel her in the past two days."

"The thing about seeing Yu before left a deep shadow on her, and now such a misunderstanding happens before her eyes, maybe she will have a long nightmare again... Alas, before filming, I thought For this reward theme, I also deliberately thought about whether to change the cooperation project and advance the subsequent variety show, but she told me that artists can’t be picky about work, and I will work hard to overcome it... Who knows that this kind of thing happened again?”

As Wang Luoshui said, she couldn't help feeling a little sympathetic to Chu Nanxing. After all, they were childhood friends who grew up together. Besides, she knew how much Chu Nanxing had been hurt in the incident seven years ago. The person who caused Ji Yu's injury was also biased for a moment.

Hearing her words, Meng Rendong looked away from the phone and looked at her meaningfully: "Oh? Do you sympathize with her?"

Wang Luoshui's heart skipped a beat when she felt what she meant.

She licked her somewhat dry lips, as if she didn't know how to speak, so she hesitated for a long time, and could only remind with some hesitation: "Lonicera... don't you..."

Meng Rendong laughed lightly.

She knew what Wang Luoshui meant——

seven years ago.

After Chu Jianyu fell into the water, after going through a series of investigations, everyone believed that Chu Nanxing, who was the closest to the crime scene, did not respond in time because he was too young. After the discovery, all rescues were too late.

Later, the Chu family, people from the police station, and children's psychological counselors, including friends such as Wang Luoshui and Yan Xi, all distributed part of their regret and pain for Chu Jianyu to Chu Nanxing. They knew that the friends who had left were gone forever. They left, and Chu Nanxing shouldn't be condemned by others for not being able to do anything at the scene. Chu Nanxing is not a tool for them to vent their guilt and annoyance.

She is also a human being, and she too will feel the pain and heartbreak of losing her sister.

but……

Only Meng Rendong was alone, like a hungry wolf who refused to let go of the blood, staring at Chu Nanxing, taking advantage of the absence of others, she was going to ask this person over and over again what did Chu Nanxing do when Chu Jianyu fell into the water? What.

No matter how Chu Nanxing shows weakness, cries, or breaks down and accuses her in turn:

"What qualifications do you have to say about me, Sister Lonicera? You are so good at water, if you hadn't left to buy a drink, you would have saved my sister after she fell, right? Even if you've conspired against me ten thousand times here, Chu Jianyu will not come back either!"

"Meng Rendong! What right do you have to interrogate me here? If you are not convinced, you can ask those who recorded the case back then, what's the use of labeling me here? This way you can feel less guilty? "

……

Later, Meng Rendong began to get injured frequently, as if he had been unlucky, he always injured his head by accident.

The questioning of Chu Nanxing was nothing.

Then, at some point, Meng Rendong seemed to have completely given up, accepting that no matter what she said, she could not change the fact that Chu Jianyu had left. Gradually, her relationship with Chu Nanxing also recovered, and it was even stronger than before. Be more intimate, even Chu Nanxing was prevented from going abroad by the Chu family at that time, and then she insisted on going away to another country, it was Meng Rendong who gave her financial assistance.

Everyone thought that Meng Rendong had forgotten his stubbornness back then, and Wang Luoshui was no exception.

Who knows today——

She saw Meng Rendong like this again.

That's why I asked in surprise, thinking that she was going to go back to her old ways.

Meng Rendong raised his eyebrows flatly, and by the way, looked at the rows of camera screens next to him, and found that Ji Yu was writing in circles on the lyrics paper with a pen. He should be making corresponding adaptations of the songs. I can’t find a table in the house, so I just lie on the ground, prop my head, and write when I feel inspired, and roll up the pen with pouting at other times, or sit upright on the ground and press my legs, without wasting any energy to practice time.

There was a little smile in her black eyes, and when Wang Luoshui thought she would not answer, she said softly:

"some things……"

"It's a coincidence that it happened once. If it happened one after another, it's called premeditated."

Wang Luoshui: "..."

She knew that Meng Rendong had never been able to get out of the shadow of seven years ago, but without evidence, it was difficult for her to support Meng Rendong's conclusion.

So he moved his lips, wanting to persuade something, after all, no matter from reason or emotion, very few people can accept that the friend they grew up with suddenly turned into a vicious villain who wanted to put people to death.

At this moment, Meng Rendong said lightly again:

"I think, you may not have a problem with some prayer ceremony..."

Wang Luoshui thought that she had changed the subject on her own initiative, so she said "Huh?" very face-saving, and put on a posture of listening attentively, waiting for the well-informed president of the imperial court to open her eyes. Meng Rendong said:

"Didn't you find it?"

"I have had headaches a few times, all because of Chu Nanxing appearing by my side. Similarly, Ji Yu's accident this time is entirely because of Chu Nanxing's presence—"

Wang Luoshui looked around subconsciously, even though she temporarily dismissed the others because she wanted to discuss things with Meng Rendong, she still reflexively did not want this shocking words to be heard.

At the same time, she said helplessly, "Lonicera."

Wang Luoshui said: "No investigation, no right to speak... No matter how Nan Xing is still our friend and Jian Yu's sister, it is really inappropriate for you to make such speculations without evidence."

Meng Rendong looked at his phone again, clicking back and forth on it, and when he heard Wang Luoshui's serious voice, he nodded clearly:

"I'll find out."

Her black eyes stared at the screen of the mobile phone, reflecting a faint light, like a flame that never goes out: "If you want others to know, you must do nothing yourself."

……

"South Star."

In the corridor next to the dormitory, Chang Xue put her on Chu Nanxing's shoulder. Seeing that she seemed to be out of control these days, she couldn't help saying: "What are you thinking? Are you still feeling guilty?"

As she said that, Chang Xue looked around, lowered her voice and said to her, "Don't worry about it, I heard from Director Wang that although Teacher Ji was really afraid of water, she overcame it during the filming. We didn't know she had such serious sequelae, did we?"

The two of them were looking out at a narrow window in the corridor at the moment, and they could clearly see part of the scene outside the hotel. The window was very small and narrow, and there was a railing in front of it. The security measures were excellent, and it was a good place to breathe here good choice.

After hearing Chang Xue's words, Chu Nanxing gave a absent-minded "hmm".

When Chang Xue was about to comfort her with the glutinous rice chicken she had just brought from the cafeteria, she suddenly heard Chu Nanxing ask, "What kind of person do you think... would be afraid of water?"

Although Chang Xue didn't know why she came to ask such a question, she still began to guess obediently, "Of course it must have been drowned when she was a child, or she saw something bad about it..."

Chu Nanxing nodded thoughtfully.

Chang Xue saw that she was still here in a daze, and that the glutinous rice chicken she smuggled up was about to get cold, so she quickly brought the plastic bag in front of her, shook it from side to side and said, "You didn't eat breakfast, did you? Hurry up, I brought you some !Try it! The glutinous rice chicken here is really soulful! I like it so much!"

Chu Nanxing softened his face, smiled at her, then took the breakfast she handed over, and when he peeled off the wrapped lotus leaves layer by layer through the plastic bag, he heard her say slowly:

"Thinking about it this way, it seems that Ji Yu has never heard anything about her childhood."

Chang Xue was easily distracted by her, and nodded, "That's right, let alone when she was a child, sometimes Rongshen told us about her foreign friends, or Ling Lan told us that she was once When I was forced to learn Peking Opera, Teacher Ji was always listening, and never took the initiative to bring up family members or things about my childhood."

With her affirmation, the suspicion in Chu Nanxing's heart grew bigger and bigger.

She had a ridiculous idea——

Thinking of Ji Yu's face that is extremely similar to Chu Jianyu, and the other party's familiar suppressing force on the stage, it seems that he was born with an excellent talent in this area...not to mention that he has a kind of difficulty with water. verbal fear.

Is it...

Chu Nanxing couldn't suppress the speculation in his heart, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case.

There were two voices arguing endlessly in my heart:

One said that Chu Jianyu's funeral, including the cremation process, was all arranged by the Chu family. If there was something tricky, Chu Huaide would not sit idly by. She must have thought too much.

The other sneered again, "It's not like you don't know how weird this world is, Chu Nanxing, you already know that all the stories here are written by someone's handwriting, you can make Chu Jianyu the protagonist yesterday, today you can If you are endowed with amazing abilities, then... what is it to bring Chu Jianyu back from the dead?

……

Under everyone's different thoughts, the days are gradually approaching the third performance of "Dream Chasing 100".

Meng Rendong's investigation into what happened back then has come to a standstill.

She repeatedly looked at the records of that time, and took pains to find out many people who had worked in that homestay and appeared on the scene that day and asked, and she got the same answer as seven years ago again and again.

The detectives sent by Meng Rendong to investigate came one after another, which made her firm from the beginning, and gradually gave birth to a crack of vacillation. When there was only the last person left, she couldn't help but squeeze the phone tightly. Feeling a little fidgety in the office.

Just then, she received a very unexpected invitation.

……

"Uncle Chu."

In the high-end teahouse club, Meng Liandong sat on the ground on the grass ball exuding a faint fragrance, looking at the majestic Chu Huaide opposite, with a bit of surprise in his expression.

Obviously, she couldn't figure out why Chu Huaide, who was almost half-retired in the industry, would suddenly meet her.

But because of the friendship between the two families and some other reasons, Meng Rendong immediately put off the matter at hand and came to the appointment.

Chu Huaide was very calm, so he first told her that the location of the tea room is good, the source of tea is also very high-end, and even the utensils used for making and tasting tea here are made of what materials...

Meng Rendong chatted with him patiently, like a polite junior dealing with an elder thoughtfully.

It wasn't until Chu Huaide was making tea that he didn't know whether he was not careful or what, and accidentally dropped one of the green lotus teacups he had just praised, and it was crisp and crushed on the ground.

Meng Rendong was startled, and hurried to get someone to clean it up, and wanted to take the teacup and make tea for him himself, but Chu Huaide looked down at the cup, with a bit of regret in his expression:

"I like this set of tea sets very much. I dropped one and it looks incomplete."

Meng Rendong didn't think much about it, and just said appropriately: "I heard that there will be an auction next month, and there will be some good antiques on it. If Uncle Chu likes it, I will collect a new set and send it to you. .”

Chu Huaide shook his head: "Others think that things are a complete set, and the collection value is the highest, but I don't think so..."

He raised his eyes and looked at Meng Rendong, as if he was implying something, but also as if he was only talking about the teacup. The regret in his expression was not taken away, but there was a tougher attitude in it, as if he had shown his usual negotiating skills. momentum:

"If you can change to a new set, how can you call it like it?"

"Although some beloved things are lost, the more important thing is to protect the rest, so that we can live up to our original intentions. Otherwise, it would seem unfeeling to exchange them easily, what do you think?"

Meng Rendong just took the teacup and was stretching out his arms to pour tea for him. Hearing this, he wanted to respond with a smile, but when he raised his eyes and met Chu Huaide's, he suddenly realized that the elders of their generation like to use tea. These vague words hinted at something, she hung her wrist in time to stop her movements.

The tea was just full.

Meng Rendong smiled calmly, "Uncle Chu came to see me today, he seems to have something else to say."

Chu Huaide lowered his eyes to look at the clear tea soup in the blue teacup with lotus leaf pattern, he lowered his eyes slightly, and said, "I know you have a good relationship with Jian Yu, and you have never forgotten what happened back then for so many years—"

"But those things have already been settled. I don't care what speculations or plans you have, just stop. If you continue to investigate, it will be of no benefit to anyone."

……

"How did you come?"

two hours later.

Si Tian opened the door of the rental house, saw Meng Rendong outside, and looked at her very strangely.

Meng Rendong came in with lowered eyes and a pale face. Si Tian noticed some wet spots on her body, so he couldn't help but look out the window, and said, "It's raining outside, didn't you take an umbrella when you went out?"

Meng Rendong gave a "hmm" and asked softly, "Is it convenient to chat?"

Si Tian didn't expect that she wanted to have a heart-to-heart talk with him, so he was surprised, and stepped back immediately to welcome her in: "Of course! I just want you to help me with two blueprints!"

Meng Rendong went in to change her shoes, and was led by Si Tian to walk forward. She soon saw a pile of handmade parts on her computer desk. Looking carefully, she found a light gold bracelet on it. what to do.

But Si Tian pulled her over and introduced to her enthusiastically:

"I recently joined Ji Yu's fan support team and was responsible for designing her support items. I heard that the first fan to call her on the stage used a flashlight, so everyone decided on the golden orange support color. ..."

"Look! Although you can't bring a flashlight in, isn't the design of my wristband very meaningful?"

Meng Rendong followed her instructions to look, and found that she took out a simple silver round bracelet, and strung several exquisitely polished pendants in the shape of flashlights on it, four of which were fixed in different positions, and the flashlight There are also heavy metal punk patterns on the accessories, which can also be opened, but the light emitted is not strong, like a miniature flashlight, with her shaking movements, it makes a crisp sound.

Then scattered golden-orange lights flickered.

Although not strong, it also makes people feel warm.

Meng Rendong suddenly felt that the chill from being in the rain outside had been dispelled. When he saw Si Tian's support bracelet, he praised approvingly: "It's much better than that fluorescent one, and it's really very commemorative."

Immediately, Si Tian was encouraged and smiled in surprise: "Really!"

Meng Rendong nodded.

Si Tian was secretly happy for a while, then remembered that he should pour water for the guests, and then asked Meng Rendong if he would like to take a hot bath in the bathroom to drive away the cold, and finally asked:

"By the way, why did you think of coming here today?"

Holding the hot water cup in his hand, Meng Rendong blew on it. After thinking for a while, he slowly replied: "I told Ji Yu about finding you."

Si Tian: "Ah!"

She asked nervously, "And then?"

Meng Rendong glanced at her very calmly, said nothing, and then just told her about the variety show and the arrangements behind it, Si Tian immediately began to nervously grab the manual parts on the table.

"I, I, my...God...how so fast...I didn't prepare myself..."

She started to walk around the room, as if she had already decided that Ji Yu was going to take the first place again, and at the same time, she was planning to meet in her heart, only to find that Meng Rendong was standing by the side like an outsider holding a hot water cup in his spare time. I can't help but want to spread my nervousness to the past:

"Mr. Meng."

Meng Rendong: "?"

Si Tian looked at her seriously: "Aren't you afraid?"

Meng Rendong pursed his lips, and said, "The boat will go straight when it reaches the bridge."

Si Tian didn't know what to imagine, and her expression became more and more ugly. In the end, she solemnly raised the flashlight-like bracelet in her hand, and solemnly said to Meng Rendong:

"Don't worry! I will remember to speak for you! Ji Yu is so nice and kind, and you two had such a deep relationship, you can definitely be together again!"

Meng Rendong was stunned for a moment, then said in frustration: "I didn't think about it that much..."

Si Tian immediately said to her bitterly, "Then start thinking now!"

Then, as if puzzled, she added: "You have been together so much before, and you have fallen asleep, why is your progress going backwards now? Think about it, think about it now! Think hard!"

Meng Rendong: "..."

Si Tian raised his hand, wishing he could rush up and shake her shoulder: "You must be together! I can be single! But you must be happy, understand! Mr. Meng! Fight hard!"
