I'm not a good substitute

When Huo Jindong returned from pouring water, he found that Zhang Yanran was much better, but his face was still red because of a severe cough just now.

"Drink some water." Huo Jindong handed the water glass to Zhang Yanran, the temperature was just right.

Zhang Yanran was indeed thirsty, took the cup and poured two big sips of water, Huo Jindong was afraid that he would choke, so he patted his back to help him breathe.

Zhang Yanran came out hungry to find something to eat, but he didn't expect to fill himself with water first.He handed the water glass back to Huo Jindong with some embarrassment, and didn't want to eat anymore, "I'm fine, go back and rest."

"En." Huo Jindong responded, looking at Zhang Yanran with a slightly deep gaze.

Zhang Yanran was a little overwhelmed by this kind of wolf-like gaze. He turned his head and felt his heart beating, and laughed dryly, "Well, you should go to bed earlier, and you're still at work tomorrow, haha."

Huo Jindong chuckled, "Tomorrow is Saturday, so I won't go to work."

He stared at Zhang Yanran very suggestively, although he did not speak, his gaze was quite meaningful.

Zhang Yanran suddenly felt a lot of pressure, didn't dare to say anything more, said good night quickly and fled away.

After returning to the room, Zhang Yanran leaned against the door to pant for a while, and moved along his chest, feeling a twinge of fear in his heart.

After confirming that the door of the room was locked, he went to bed, opened his eyes and sighed.

Look, look!Look at Huo Jindong's current appearance.It was agreed to be infatuated, and it was agreed to be broken for the sake of Xiaoliang's appearance, and it has only been a while since he started to make up his mind again.

What's more, they only saw Xiao Liang today, but Huo Jindong was very indifferent.

Could it be that when Xiao Liang went abroad, he felt that love was hopeless and planned to live in peace?

Zhang Yanran thought about it carefully, and it seems that this is also a classic development: a man pursues his sweetheart obsessively, after being rejected many times and has no hope of love, he honestly marries a wife and has children, hides the person he loves deeply in his heart, and occasionally misses it.

Huo Jindong is a man, he is also gay, and he looks somewhat similar to Xiao Liang.

So the development of the matter is that Huo Jindong pursued Xiao Liang for many years, and then fell in love with him after he went abroad, and then became enlightened, and finally chose his own dog's tail grass to live in?

He was stunned by the process of making up his own brain, but the more Zhang Yanran thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense. He felt that something was wrong.

He thought to himself that if Huo Jindong really gave up on Xiao Liang, wouldn't he become Huo Jindong's target? Then he couldn't leave, no good.

Zhang Yanran made up his mind that he must rekindle Huo Jindong's enthusiasm for Xiao Liang, and he will retire with success.

That's it!Zhang Yanran clenched his fist in his heart.

In the kitchen, Huo Jindong shook his head and chuckled as he saw Zhang Yanran's almost fleeing back.

Zhang Yanran didn't finish drinking the water, so he slowly drank the water in the cup and returned to the room. When he passed Zhang Yanran's door, he paused for a while, and finally took a deep look before returning to his room.

He sat on the bed, dialed a phone casually, and was immediately picked up by the other party.

Song Jae's loud voice sounded, and he kept apologizing, "Brother, I'm really sorry for today's daytime, I really didn't know you were there, isn't it just a coincidence?"

He really didn't expect to meet Huo Jindong and Zhang Yanran. This kind of "new love and old love" meeting made him, who is not the party involved, very embarrassed. He was afraid that he would do something wrong, so he was always worried during the day.

I wanted to make a phone call to apologize, but I have been talking with Xiao Liang today, and there is a low-key welcome reception in the evening, so I haven't been free.

Thinking about contacting Huo Jindong after the reception was over, the other party's call arrived first.

Finding a place where no one was around, Song Zai hurriedly apologized first. He knew Huo Jindong's character, and he was afraid that the other party would blame him if it was too late, so he preemptively struck.

Huo Jindong didn't care about it, but asked another thing, "Is the male lead of the TV series you invested in recently?"

Song Jae became alert, "Why do you want to inquire about this and recommend someone to me?"

"Zhang Yanran." Huo Jindong didn't hide it, and directly expressed his thoughts.

Song Jae hissed, feeling a little headache, "Breakup fee?"

"A promise gift." Unusual, Huo Jindong's voice was filled with a smile.

"Are you serious? Where's Xiao Liang?" Song Zai's loud voice almost exploded when he heard these words. He couldn't believe that his friend had moved on so quickly.

Although it's normal for a man to change his mind, Huo Jindong was not so kind to Xiao Liang back then.What's more, in Song Zai's view, Zhang Yanran is ordinary, and has nothing to recommend except good looks.

Now that Huo Jindong actually wanted to give Zhang Yanran such an expensive gift of love, Song Jae was naturally surprised, and couldn't help but raise his voice.

Huo Jindong sighed, "I've said it countless times, I really don't like Xiao Liang."

Song Zai let out a sound in his heart, and secretly thought that Huo Jindong wanted to save face and suffer, if he couldn't catch up with others, he would settle for second best and find a substitute.

He sighed, but he agreed, "Okay, you can do whatever you want. But the male lead of the TV series has already been decided, it is Xiao Liang, and the contract will be signed after a while."

Huo Jindong frowned, he really didn't want to have anything to do with Xiao Liang now, "I'll invest, can I change Zhang Yanran?"

Song Jae explained in a good voice, "Brother, it's not that I don't help, it's that the investment in this show is quite large, and I can't make the decision by myself. I advise you to quickly dismiss this idea."

He lit a cigarette and smoked it slowly, "Let's not talk about the large investment in the current drama, which can cost hundreds of millions. Even if you have money, Zhang Yanran has never acted in a drama, can he support it? Take a step back, even if he The acting skills are so good, a newcomer with no fame and no fans, who wants to cooperate with him? Going back further, you spent a lot of money to pay the heroine and the crew to come over, can the TV station and video site buy it? Who will sell it to? ? Although I am a big investor in this drama, TV stations and video websites also have shares, so I will point them to buy it."

"Besides, we decided on Xiao Liang not only because of his good acting skills, but also because he is an actor, he also has many fans and a high nationality. With his own popularity, he can save a lot of money just by promoting it, and his reputation is also guaranteed. .If you want to force Zhang Yanran to be the number one male, it is very likely that hundreds of millions will be spent, and there will be no splash at all."

Song Jae puffed out his cigarette, and persuaded, "If you really want to praise him, you might as well put him in our show as the second male lead. Find a screenwriter to add some drama, make the characters better, make the appearance better, and get famous first." With fans, run a few more variety shows, and it will become popular."

After he finished speaking, he chuckled, "It just so happens that Zhang Yanran looks a bit like Xiao Liang, and he can also stir up the relationship between the two of them, with their own enthusiasm."

Huo Jindong frowned.

In fact, he didn't really want Zhang Yanran to have contact with Huo Jindong, after all, Zhang Yanran had a simple mind and was inexperienced in the world, while Xiao Liang had a deep mind.

If Xiao Liang was scheming, Zhang Yanran might not be able to fight back.

He thought for a while and finally said, "Forget it, I'll think of another way."

Seeing that he dismissed this idea, Song Jae felt relieved.Hearing that Huo Jindong was going to hang up the phone, he asked without giving up, "Xiao Liang is here too, so you have nothing to ask?"

Huo Jindong was taken aback, "What did I ask him for?" As if he really didn't care.

Okay, Song Jae gave a thumbs up in his heart, it really is a dead duck with a stubborn mouth, and he still pretends like this.

Since Huo Jindong wanted to do this, he could only accompany him to the end, but he thought in his heart that Yan Ran was really scheming, and that he could coax Huo Jindong to be so generous, so he had to be careful.

My buddy is good at everything, he is handsome, can make money and has a high IQ, but he is a little love-minded.

Thinking about what was on his mind, Song Zai quickly walked out of the door of the bathroom cubicle, and unexpectedly saw Xiao Liang washing his hands slowly, he was startled, he didn't know how much he had listened to what he said just now.

Xiao Liang raised his head when he heard the movement, a little surprised, "You're inside? What a coincidence."

Song Zai's tense nerves immediately relaxed. If Xiao Liang wanted to eavesdrop, he wouldn't be here now.

He smiled, "It's too stuffy inside, come out for a cigarette. How long have you been out?"

Xiao Liang slowly pulled out a piece of paper to wipe his hands, "It's been a while since I came out. They always ask me to drink and come out to hide. They have been blowing air at the corridor window, and the smell of alcohol is almost gone. Come and wash your hands. go back."

Knowing that Xiao Liang has a slight obsession with cleanliness, he washes his hands habitually, and his hair is also slightly messy, it must have been blown by the wind, so he immediately felt relieved.

As the two walked back, Xiao Liang seemed to mention it casually, "I saw Huo Jindong today, who is next to him?"

"Oh, you said Zhang Yanran, Jindong's friend." Regarding the matter of Huo Jindong and Zhang Yanran, Song Zai didn't want to say more, so he casually said a few words.

Xiao Liang nodded and didn't ask any further questions, just smiled and said, "Zhang Yanran looks familiar, but I can't remember where I saw him. I thought it was some forgotten friend. I'm overthinking."

Song Jae complained in his heart, you two look alike, you can see similar faces in the mirror every day, don't you look familiar.

But he didn't say much, and turned to talk about TV dramas, Xiao Liang also echoed a few words from time to time.

The next day was the weekend, but the entertainment reporters didn't rest. The entertainment-related news was overwhelmingly reported on the news that actor Xiao Liang had returned to China and that he had signed a contract with the big-budget TV series "Zi Fei Biography".

Xiaoliang's many fans are looking forward to this, and some people who eat melons are also somewhat interested.

But there are also some black fans who said that Xiao Liang vowed to go to Hollywood to develop and become an international superstar, but now he has returned in despair after less than a year. It can be seen that his development in Hollywood is not going well. evidence of.

There were also very few people who broke the news, saying that the actor got a lot of money for signing this show, which is a typical example of bending his waist for money, and some people said that he has a relationship with the investor.

These sporadic bad remarks were quickly buried under the powerful fans of the actor. After all, Xiao Liang said that he would go to Hollywood to develop, but it made the fans very sad. Now that he is back and accepting new dramas, the fans only care He was so happy that he didn't have time to think about the reasons for his return to China, let alone listen to these slanders.

However, Zhang Yanran just glanced at Xiao Liang on the Internet and didn't pay much attention.He is going to the repertory theater today, to help his brother, and make a guest appearance as an actor temporarily.

This is what was agreed long ago.Unexpectedly, Huo Jindong also went with him.
