In the middle of the trip, it rained heavily, and the sky above Haitang City was thunderous and lightning flashed.

Such a terrible weather made Fang Qing, who was already full of distrust for tonight's dinner, feel more uneasy. The last time there was such a similar dinner was three years ago, when he just met with Shengxing Entertainment After signing the contract, the agent arranged a party with ulterior motives.

The name is to broaden the network, but in fact it contains sinister intentions.

Thinking back now, if he had compromised that day, maybe the road now would have been much smoother, and he would not have offended the company's top management, so that before he had time to officially come back, he was abandoned by the company like a shoe, and he was left unattended for three years.

If he said that he missed the film and television resources that he was about to get many times, and that Shengxing Entertainment was not behind it at all, he would not believe it. The contract between him and Shengxing Entertainment placed too many constraints on him, but fortunately, Shengxing Entertainment Although he didn't want him to be famous, he still chose to turn a blind eye to some of his actions, and he didn't intend to put him to death, otherwise he wouldn't even run away all these years.

However, two or three years have passed, and the company's control over him has become less and less. Fang Qing regards being able to connect with a famous director like Liu Xiangkun as the beginning of breaking the ice in his career. Although the result is still bad, compared to the past, this is also It's a good sign...

Fang Qing leaned on the back seat of the car, holding her mobile phone and continuing to browse the Internet for information about Zhao Shen's new play.

It is an ancient costume fairy tale drama. The original work is very popular on the Internet, and the production team that has been announced is also quite famous. From this point of view, it is a big project that the capital focuses on. There was a lot of discussion about this, among which the actor who played the leading role was Ling Yao.

Ling Yao became famous two years ago with a hit idol drama, and he was promoted to a popular artist. In fact, his acting skills are average, but his innocent and harmless Japanese face is his weapon in the entertainment industry. Although he played two plays in a row, his popularity remained high.

Zhao Shen likes to use traffic artists the most in filming. If Ling Yao is finally chosen as the male number one, Fang Qing thinks it is normal.

If he is lucky, Zhao Shenxing may be able to give him a male number three.

He doesn't expect much from the male number two.

This kind of star-studded big IP production can get a considerable bonus in the first four episodes. This is not just a competition among actors, it is directly related to the game of the economic company behind the actors.

And Shengxing Entertainment behind him is one of the best entertainment companies in China, but it is impossible to stand up for him.

According to the address given by Zhao Shen, Fang Qing came to the five-star restaurant in the bustling area. He arrived nearly 10 minutes earlier than Zhao Shen requested. He called Zhao Shen in the magnificent lobby and asked Zhao Shen where he was. Which box.

Zhao Shen asked Fang Qing to go up to the tenth floor first, and he waited for him at the elevator entrance.

Before hanging up the phone, Fang Qing vaguely heard the crisp sound of the cups colliding, and a group of people talking and laughing, this is...

Already started the bar?

Fang Qing checked the time on the phone to confirm that he was not late. He also clearly remembered that the time Zhao Shen said was eight o'clock tonight, unless Zhao Shen himself made a mistake.

Taking the elevator to the tenth floor, as soon as the elevator door opened, Fang Qing saw a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes standing outside. He barely exceeded 1.7 meters in height and had a shiny back.

That was Zhao Shen.

Fang Qing had seen Zhao Shen's photo on the Internet, and Zhao Shen just said that he would wait for him outside the elevator, so Fang Qing didn't hesitate at all about the identity of the person in front of him. After walking out of the elevator, she said politely: "Zhao Shen Hello, I am Fang Qing."

Zhao Shen looked at the tall and handsome young man in front of him, he was even more amazed than when he saw the photo Liu Xiangkun gave him, he couldn't help nodding, and smiled with [-]% satisfaction: "Not bad, no wonder old Liu recommended you so much to me. "

Fang Qing was a little uncomfortable being looked at by Zhao Shen. Although this Zhao Shen and Liu Xiangkun were about the same age, they had completely different temperaments. Greasy finish.

Fang Qing shook hands with Zhao Shen: "Sorry Director Zhao, I seem to be late?"

"It's not too late, everyone has just drunk half of the wine, and the atmosphere is just right."

“…”

Fang Qing was even more puzzled.

Since the drinking party was halfway through, why did Zhao Shen let him come here now?

"Come on Fang Qing, follow me first."

Zhao Shen turned around and walked towards the box not far away, Fang Qing raised his heel to follow.

Now that she has arrived here, Fang Qing doesn't mind taking another step. If there is something tricky, she will be willing to retreat after hitting a wall.

Zhao Shen walked very slowly, and deliberately took advantage of this gap to tell Fang Qing: "After entering the box, you must have good eyesight, especially for Mr. Lu, he is the most honorable person in this wine bureau, and I will kill you when he enters." The main reason to introduce him and ask you to come is to please Mr. Lu."

The person Zhao Shen originally planned to call to warm up the scene was not Fang Qing, but another young and beautiful male artist. Until yesterday when he saw Fang Qing's photo from Liu Xiangkun, his aesthetic nerves were ruthless by Fang Qing's face. It was right, because Fang Qing looked so much like a female star he had a crush on when he was young.

Zhao Shen made such a decision after careful consideration.

Of course, Zhao Shen is not ignorant of Fang Qing. Apart from Liu Xiangkun's descriptions, he has also checked Fang Qing's information and learned that Fang Qing and the contracted company Shengxing Entertainment seem to have some problems. He is obviously talented, but he debuted for three years. I haven't won a role within four episodes, and I have just been returned by Liu Xiangkun's new play. This is the most frustrating and tormenting time, trying to get ahead.

Zhao Shen thought he had figured out Fang Qing's psychology clearly, so he called Fang Qing over as a matter of course.

This opportunity tonight is rare for any [-]th-line actor. He took it for granted that Fang Qing was grateful to him at the moment, and tonight would be like most of the artists he brought to the bar in the past. He tried his best to please the powerful people in the banquet, and according to the usual practice, he would assign Fang Qing a role in his new play afterwards.

Fang Qing frowned upon hearing Zhao Shen's words. He always felt that the phrase "to please" in Zhao Shen's words did not refer to ordinary flattery. This reminded him of the rumors he had heard from Tang Shui before...

In general wine games, the first half of the game is mostly about business, and when the wine is half drunk, the people who usually hold it in their mouths start to show their true nature and do whatever they want, the second half of the adult wine game will come.

The nature of adults is greedy for money and sex. The focus of the first half is to earn wealth, and the indulgence in the second half is naturally...

Therefore, the person who was pushed into the wine game in the second half was more like a "surprise" for the high-ranking person, or a gift.

I don't know if it's true or not.

Fang Qing has not had the opportunity to come into contact with this level of dinner in the past few years, but it is not that he does not understand the rules of this kind of banquet. It is inevitable to flatter the capitalists. He can still say a few nice words, but there is a limit to everything, within the limit he can deal with it calmly, but if the limit is exceeded, he will never accompany him.

When he reached the door of the box, Zhao Shen stopped, turned to Fang Qing and said, "Xiao Fang, if you come out after tonight, you must not forget me, the noble man who will guide you."

Fang Qing said politely: "Of course Director Zhao should keep such support in mind all the time."

Complacent, Zhao Shen once again described Fang Qing from short black hair to slender legs with greedy eyes in admiration, as if he was looking at a perfect artwork he had personally selected.

He was very satisfied with his decision to make a temporary replacement.

Zhao Shen had privately known Mr. Lu, who had just come to China at the beginning of the year, and knew that he had no interest in women, and had an eccentric and unpredictable temper.

It's just that men are not bad-tempered, and Zhao Shen knows this well. In his opinion, this seemingly indifferent Mr. Lu is just too picky and doesn't look down on ordinary Yingying Yanyan, so he gives people a kind of A sense of style.

But as long as it is not sexual and impotent, when a man meets a prey with the right taste, his self-control will collapse or will collapse.

If Fang Qing falls in the eyes of this big boss tonight, he can also get a lot of benefits, but if Mr. Lu doesn't look down on Shang Qing, then it doesn't matter. Cheap him early.

Zhao Shen's burning gaze made Fang Qing feel that Zhao Shen didn't ask him to come over tonight to consider whether he was suitable for his new play.

"Okay, let's go in."

As Zhao Shen said, he turned and pushed open the door of the box.

A strong smell of alcohol hit, Fang Qing subconsciously frowned.

Zhao Shen has skillfully put on a beautiful smiling face: "I'm sorry everyone, I'm late, this person is still nervous. When I heard that the person I want to meet is Mr. Lu, I hesitated all the way..."

Zhao Shen turned sideways, and Fang Qing's figure completely faced the people sitting at the wine table.

Fang Qing's white skin glowed with the luster of fine porcelain under the light, and his eyes were like black ice, filled with a clear starlight under the light, the bridge of his nose was straight and slender, and the color of his lips was reflected by his skin. It was a little bright red, as if a few drops of cherry juice were attached to it. He was wearing a tailored black suit. Because those two legs were so slender, the suit in his early [-]s gave him a luxurious and tailor-made texture.

There were a few people in the banquet who couldn't move their gazes away...

The man sitting leaning on the top seat, the moment Fang Qing's face was reflected in his eyes, his pupils trembled almost imperceptibly for half a second, and he narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes were as dark as the deep sea, changing rapidly in an instant.

this is----

"Come here, Fang Qing..." Zhao Shen led Fang Qing to the seat of the seat.

Fang Qing kept a proper, indifferent smile on his face, his eyes swept across the wine table in front of him calmly, and he weighed the polite words in his heart for a while.

However....

One and a half seconds later, Fang Qing's pupils constricted suddenly, and her eyes fixed on the face of the man sitting on the top table in astonishment!

Even the smile on his face froze at the speed of light!

That is---

No.

impossible.

The man looked extremely handsome, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, a straight nose and thin lips. He looked young, but his temperament was stable and stable. According to the visual inspection, he was no more than thirty or so at most. He was wearing a pure black shirt of fine texture, and the cuffs of his clothes were casually rolled up to the elbows. , exposing the smooth and strong forearm of muscles.

Looking at the five or six people at the bar, he was the only one who took off his suit jacket, giving people a feeling of complete relaxation.

He leaned back on the chair calmly, staring at Fang Qing lazily but sharply, the corners of his mouth raised a subtle arc that seemed to be there.

"This is the President Lu I told you about earlier." Zhao Shen gently pushed Fang Qing forward, picked up a glass of wine and stuffed it into Fang Qing's hand, and said with a smile, "Fang Qing, what are you doing here? , Hurry up and toast Mr. Lu."

Under Fang Qing's ice-covered face, there had already been a turbulent wave, and there were tens of thousands of glass beads jumping wildly in his head, which made him unable to calm down.

He has always considered himself to be frank, but at this moment, Fang Qing found that even looking at the man's eyes was extremely exhausting.

Will it be him?

President Lu?

The same surname is Lu, even with a more profound and mature appearance than before, but still can't get rid of the shadow of seven years ago...

How could there be another person like him in this world.

This is him!

Fang Qing suddenly didn't know what kind of mood and expression to face, and he didn't dare to think about how he looked at himself who suddenly appeared at this moment.

After seven years, more than 500 days and nights, it is obviously such a long time, but everything in the past clearly seems to have happened yesterday.

It's just that things are different and people are different, and the transformation of each other is like going through centuries, turning the world upside down...

Fang Qing had trouble breathing. He felt that the calm mask on his face was cracking a little bit. He could almost feel the playfulness and playfulness in the man's eyes, and he seemed to be appreciating the earthquake in his pupils at the moment.

Fang Qing held the wine glass without moving, and the atmosphere suddenly became stalemate. Everyone looked at Fang Qing for no reason.

In front of Fang Qing, Mr. Lu, who had always been silent, leaned lazily on the seat, caressing the hand on the wine glass, and tapping the glass body with his index finger casually.

It's like waiting for something, but it doesn't seem to be in a hurry.

"What's the matter, Fang Qing, are you nervous?" Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Zhao Shen hurriedly said with a smile again, "Mr. Lu is on his own, come on, quickly toast Mr. Lu, don't make Mr. Lu wait in a hurry."

Only then did Fang Qing seem to be relieved from the distant memories. He tried his best to calm down, and moved his mouth and said, "I respect Mr. Lu."

He couldn't say a word of extra polite words, Fang Qing believed that this man must have recognized him, even if it was a pretentious addition of a long-standing name, it would appear extremely hypocritical between him and this man.

But if he runs away at this moment, then in front of this man, not only his current living situation, but also his spiritual realm will be completely defeated.

"Sit down first." Lu Lixiao didn't serve the wine, and said to Zhao Shen with a light smile, "Director Zhao has a heart.

He obviously looked friendly, but he still gave off a condescending and low-pressure aura, which made it difficult for people to observe his words, and could only be cautious in front of him, smiling respectfully.

When Zhao Shen heard this, he was overjoyed secretly, he knew that Lu Lixiao had accepted this "gift" from him.

Since ancient times, heroes have been saddened by beauty, this is really true.

"As long as President Lu likes it." Zhao Shenxi smiled, and opened the chair next to Lu Lixiao for Fang Qing, "Come Fang Qing, sit here and pour wine for President Lu."

When Fang Qing found out that Zhao Shen no longer introduced him to other people in the banquet, he realized what kind of role he was playing tonight.

As he had thought before, he was really a "gift" from Zhao Shen to this man.

In addition to him and Zhao Shen, there were only seven people in the banquet, and there was only one actor besides him, and that was Ling Yao. He was sitting next to another middle-aged man opposite him, and half of him was very close to the man. Nearby, there was a bright smile on his handsome face, and he said some joke, which made the man next to him laugh out loud, stretching out his hands from time to time to pinch Ling Yao's cheek lovingly.

This is completely different from Ling Yao's sunny and innocent feeling on the screen, but Fang Qing has never been lazy to give his emotions to people who are not important to him. The only thing he cares about at the moment is that he finds this The essence of the wine game is just to please these capital businessmen who play an important role in the entertainment industry.

And this kind of "pleasing" is not just the flattery he thought before.

But even if he wanted to leave with an excuse, he had to act tactfully. Offending this group of people would definitely be a fatal blow to his career.

After Fang Qing sat down, the banquet resumed as lively as before.

The gaze on one side was so intense that Fang Qing couldn't ignore it, so no matter how he pretended to be natural, he couldn't get rid of the feeling of being locked on by someone's gaze.

"Where is Mr. Fang?" Lu Lixiao asked suddenly, his voice was low, and he seemed to be asking casually.

Fang Qing was stunned for a moment, unable to tell whether the man really didn't recognize her, or he was asking questions knowingly.

Even after seven years, his face still won't leave him with no impression.

"Zhong'an City." Fang Qing also looked at Lu Lixiao, and replied very politely.

If this guy really hated him all the time, even if he slammed the door and left now, he would never be able to escape this man's investigation, so it's better to face it calmly.

What's more, so many years have passed, even if he has hatred in his heart, how much is left now.

"Mr. Fang looks very similar to a person I met many years ago." Lu Lixiao smiled lightly, his eyes were narrow and deep, and the light was as deep as an ancient well, making it impossible to figure out what he was thinking at the moment, "It just so happens that he Also surnamed Fang."

Fang Qing smiled: "What a coincidence, I once had a friend who was very similar to Mr. Lu, and that person was also surnamed Lu. I wonder what the name of Mr. Lu's friend is?"

"No, I'm not friends with him." Lu Lixiao leaned over slightly, with one arm lazily resting on the back of the chair, he looked at Fang Qing, and said meaningfully, "To be precise, I should be the one he's most afraid of right now. people you see,

"....Fear?"

"He has done too many bad things and is arrogant. I think if he sees me now, he will probably want to run away."

Fang Qing's eyelashes trembled slightly, but she smiled for a moment, and said calmly: "People change, maybe he is not as cowardly as Mr. Lu thinks now."

"Mr. Fang is right, people do change." Lu Lixiao said with a smile that was not a smile, and said slowly: "Once this person is downcast, he will easily degenerate, even if he was once a rich and famous young master, he may be willing to be low for money and future. , so if he can sit calmly in front of me, I can understand."

“…”

The sarcasm deep in the voice was like Ling Chi.

One hand on her lap couldn't help but clenched tightly, Fang Qing told herself repeatedly in her heart not to be quick with her tongue, this is not what it used to be, at this moment, rebuttal and counterattack will do her all harm but no benefit.

In these years, isn't what he has learned the most is restraint?

The world of adults is divided into high and low, and he has already accepted his fate.

Why do gnats shake the tree, it is a lifetime to detour...

"Since ancient times, most successful people have been open-minded." Fang Qing's voice was gentle, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him, "If that person can sit in front of President Lu calmly, it must be because he thinks he is like Mr. Lu. A person with such a noble status will never be vengeful, and will never be obsessed with old things."

Lu Lixiao narrowed his eyes slightly...

A trace of flattery reveals a half tactful request for peace, but the words are neither humble nor overbearing like a joke, as if he insists on pursuing it, it will appear that he is narrow-minded.

He couldn't feel the slightest sign of weakness from the man in front of him.

"How did you know..." Lu Lixiao leaned slightly closer to Fang Qing, with a strange smile, "I'm not someone who will take revenge."

Lu Lixiao's face is shockingly handsome under the bright light. The line from the brow bone to the bridge of the nose is comparable to a perfect statue of an ancient Greek god. Every inch is perfectly proportioned. Very shallow, with a friendly mouth shape, but there is not much emotion in his eyes. When he looked at Fang Qing, the smile in his eyes was not warm.

Fang Qing didn't speak, and the already far-fetched smile on his face disappeared little by little.

It seemed that what he said was meaningless.

Continuing to ask for peace is just a joke for this man.
