Fireproof anti-theft anti-bamboo horse
Chapter 45
After hearing what Guo Kaifan said, Yan Jing completely gave up.
He helped him clean up too many messes, and in the end, he only got more and more use and contempt. Yan Jing thought that his sincerity could move that person to some extent, but he didn't expect that it was just a hypocrisy after he had nowhere to go. If it wasn't for Lu Cheng's advice and reminder , if it wasn't for the coincidence that he had to turn back to get the dropped cell phone, I'm afraid he would still be obsessed with it.
Fortunately, it is not too late to regret now.
Life is short, why spoil yourself.
Guo Kaifan's last life-saving straw was also lost by him. He always thought that Yan Jing was devoted to him, but he never thought that if the firm relationship is not treated sincerely, there will be a day when it will be exhausted. Filled with feelings of lies.
Now that he has lost the backing of Yan Jing, the original role must be gone. Dinghua Media, which was able to maintain him before, has been acquired by other companies. Naturally, the new owner will not take care of a worthless artist. The starlets he once looked down upon have all been reassigned to managers, but no one has contacted him so far.
The three words Guo Kaifan are already notorious on the Internet, and it is impossible for anyone to use him. He is also delusional about starting over, first going to the film and television base to play tricks, and then slowly looking for opportunities.It's a pity that Guo Kaifan didn't expect that even if it was a side role, he would never be able to get it in the future.
Lu Cheng quickly dried his hair, and walked out of the lounge to see if Yan Jing had gone far, maybe he could see the follow-up, but Guo Kaifan had already caught up with Yan Jing, but was thrown away mercilessly.Those who are obsessed with obsession are finally enlightened, and they will no longer be taken advantage of for their hard work and hard work.
He was sitting on the sofa next to him, watching Guo Kaifan lose his composure with joy, and the ambiguity with Xu Boyan just now disappeared without a trace after being disturbed by these two people, and was forgotten by him to a certain corner.
Xu Boyan came back after wandering around somewhere, holding a white porcelain plate in his hand, on which was a piece of cheesecake dotted with blueberries. Looking at her, her black eyes sank: "Is he coming to trouble you again?"
"No." Lu Cheng took the cake with a smile, scooped a piece into his mouth with a small spoon, "He came here on purpose to kill himself, and let me watch a scene for free."
Seeing that he was in a good mood, Xu Boyan curled his lips calmly.
"I'm going to record a variety show next week, and the round trip will take about two days. Let's go when it's over?"
"Okay, you don't have to worry about anything, I will arrange the hotel itinerary." Xu Boyan paused, and then asked, "When are you going to go back for the New Year?"
Lu Cheng was stunned for a moment, and quickly realized: "About 27, my dad came back around those days."
Since his uncle's family settled abroad, he and Lu Xian spend the Spring Festival together every year, so that's why Lu Cheng basically doesn't join the team in January, in order to free up a few days during the New Year.
Xu Boyan could still clearly recall the lively scene of Lu's New Year's Eve, and suddenly felt nostalgic.
"Why don't you go to your uncle's place?"
"My dad is busy, and I don't have many vacations, so it's too much trouble." In fact, his uncle would invite them over every year, but every time he couldn't make the trip due to various reasons, and after that, the two of them couldn't make it. I just got used to it, "What about you, did you come back for the Spring Festival when you were studying in England?"
Xu Boyan shook his head: "I don't have time, I don't want to go back. But this year must be spent in the old house."
The thought of facing relatives whom he didn't know well, as well as Xu Mingzhang, gave him a headache.
Especially Xu Mingzhang, who is still insisting on marrying the Tang family, plus Xu Mingwu, who is afraid of chaos in the world, no matter how you look at it, this Spring Festival will not be peaceful.
At this moment Xu Boyan's cell phone rang, but he acted like he didn't hear it.
"Bo Yan?" Lu Cheng didn't know the other party's complicated psychological activities at this time. He shouted twice but didn't respond, so he stretched out his hand and shook it in front of his eyes, "Your phone is ringing."
Only then did Xu Boyan come back to his senses, glanced at the caller ID, and pressed the answer button in some surprise.
Lu Cheng couldn't hear what the person on the other end of the phone said to Xu Boyan, but in the next second, he was frozen as if cast by a spell.
"What's the matter?" Lu Cheng panicked for no reason, he had never seen the other party's expression like this, and he already had a bad premonition in his heart.
"Brother Cheng..." The phone had already been hung up, but Xu Boyan still held the phone, with astonishment and confusion in his eyes.
After a long time, he struggled to utter a few words: "My father is dead."
Unlike the ups and downs of the entertainment page, which has hot spots every day, near the end of the year, the news of Xu Mingzhang's sudden heart attack caused a huge shock in the long-silent business world.
As soon as the news came out, the shares of the Xu Group directly fell to the limit the next day, and even most of the real estate sectors went green.With the sudden death of the current president, all the companies under Xu's will face huge changes. Even if the chairman Xu Zhongjing, who is nearly eighty years old, comes to preside over the overall situation in person, the company is still in panic.
Under the guidance of people with good intentions, rumors spread all over the outside world for a while, and many companies began to pay close attention to Xu's movements. In the past, Xu's group had always been an unshakable existence under the management of Xu Mingzhang, but now, there are many people. They are all happy to see the Xu family split in order to profit from it.
It was very cold on the day of the burial, and the wind blew on the faces like bone-piercing, which further brought out the heavy state of mind of everyone at this time.
Lu Cheng has been watching Xu Boyan calmly deal with the funeral affairs of the company and Xu Mingzhang these days. Since he received the news, he has never shown any excitement except for a moment of surprise, and only when he saw the body in the hospital , lost all the blood on his face, showing a fragile look.
He stood quietly for half an hour, and after coming out of the morgue again, he resumed his usual style, handling the follow-up matters step by step, and everything was done perfectly.
Outsiders all praised the heir of the Xu family for being prudent at such a young age and sure to accomplish something in the future. Only Lu Cheng knew that Xu Boyan's reaction was by no means normal. He regarded himself as a robot and mechanically completed all kinds of instructions, but never cared about what would happen to him. There are times when I can't hold on.
Facing Xu Boyan like this, even considering his status, Lu Cheng didn't dare to walk away until the funeral was over, and finally Mr. Xu also left the cemetery with the support of the juniors. Lu Cheng seemed to see the string that was tense on Xu Boyan's body Relaxed, he sat slumped beside the tombstone, with a bewildered look in his eyes.
Lu Cheng looked at the person in front of him, and his heart ached.
Xu Boyan stared at Xu Mingzhang's tombstone, his eyes stained with blood. Su Ling was buried next to it. Her mother's ashes were brought back by her grandfather. No matter how much she hated her, she hoped that she could be buried with Xu Mingzhang in the future.
Lu Cheng knew that he needed time to recover, so he didn't make a sound to disturb him, but just leaned sideways and tried his best to help people block the howling wind.
I don't know how long it took, Xu Boyan finally spoke slowly, his voice was hoarse, obviously very calm, but it seemed more sad than crying.
"Brother Cheng, I have known since I was a child that their relationship is not good, and I also know that he has someone outside. He doesn't care about my mother, and he doesn't care about me. Even though I am his proud son in the eyes of outsiders, I know he just treats me as a A tool to inherit the family business, because grandpa likes me, so he also has high hopes for me."
"At the beginning, my mother took me away secretly. She didn't want to divorce or lose my custody rights. I remember that I was just in the first grade and I was still in school. She came here in a panic to take me away. , and then kept going to various cities..."
"So, Brother Cheng, do you know how much I envied you at that time..."
"I envy a normal family life, that's why I lied to you, saying that I have no family, and I just don't want to go back to that cold old house."
Those days in the Lu family were his happiest times. In fact, after his mother died, his grandfather found him, but he begged him not to take him away.
Although Xu Zhongjing wanted to take his grandson back at that time, he would compromise when he thought of what his son had done and Xu Boyan's poor condition at that time, so Xu Mingzhang couldn't find him after searching for so long because of his grandfather's resistance.
"Bo Yan..."
This was the first time Lu Cheng heard Xu Boyan talk about his family, those painful memories that had never been mentioned before, were spoken out by that person like a bystander.
He gritted his teeth hard, as if a bucket of ice water had been poured into his heart, the pain accompanied by a fine and dense chill penetrated into every cell in his body.
Xu Boyan in front of him is not what he wants to see, he wants him to forget the shadow of childhood, he wants him to be carefree all his life.
That person had already shown his calmness and rationality beyond ordinary people since he was a child. He would not make any demands. At the very beginning, he would even refrain from talking about his illness, for fear of causing trouble to them.
It took Lu Cheng a long time to let Xu Boyan really integrate into their family and regard himself as a member of the family. Slowly, he saw in Xu Boyan what a teenager should look like, who can laugh, make trouble, and occasionally act like a baby. Instead of being cautious every day for fear of being sent away.
Maybe only when he has been suppressed for too long and can't bear it, he is willing to confide and show weakness when there is no one else.
"Brother Cheng, I hate him." Xu Boyan rubbed the corners of his eyes, obviously very sour, but couldn't shed a single tear, "I'm not sad at all."
Brother Cheng saw such an embarrassing appearance, and he smiled self-deprecatingly: "The house they gave me is only an empty shell, but he is gone, and I am really the only one left in this empty shell gone."
Lu Cheng couldn't bear it any longer, he stepped forward and hugged the man in his arms, afraid that the other party would disappear in the blink of an eye, he had never been so scared before, his body trembled violently, tears overflowed his eyes uncontrollably, But he hugged the person in his arms tightly again and again, hoping to make him feel even a little bit of warmth.
"You are not alone, and you will never be alone with me."
The eager tone exploded in Xu Boyan's ears, and he belatedly realized that Lu Cheng was hugging him. His already numb senses were still sluggish, but they slowly revived and melted from a certain corner.
not alone.
won't be alone.
After several days of running around, his physical strength has been exhausted, and his body is extremely exhausted.Now it is all supported by thoughts. It is the first time in his life that someone has given such a moving promise, and it is Lu Cheng who he thinks about day and night.
The huge surprise made Xu Boyan even a little dazed. He raised his hand carefully and touched the other person's face, and after confirming again that it was not his imagination, he hugged him back fiercely.
"Brother Cheng, don't lie to me, I will take it seriously."
Lu Cheng, who was so distressed because of the other party just a second ago, was confused by this sentence. He sucked his nose, wiped his tears on Xu Boyan, and flicked his forehead lightly pretending to be angry.
"Brother promised you something, when did you go back on it?"
"But there will always be a time to separate..." Xu Boyan buried his head in his chest and said sullenly.
"Then let's buy a house in the same neighborhood."
"You won't have time to accompany me when you fall in love in the future."
"You will also find a girlfriend."
"I'm not looking for it!" He hugged Lu Cheng even harder, not looking for anyone but you and me.
"Then I won't look for it either, I will stay single with you for the rest of my life."
You are my younger brother, the treasure I want to hold in my hands.
So stop showing that dazed look, no matter how difficult the road ahead is, I promise I will be with you.
He helped him clean up too many messes, and in the end, he only got more and more use and contempt. Yan Jing thought that his sincerity could move that person to some extent, but he didn't expect that it was just a hypocrisy after he had nowhere to go. If it wasn't for Lu Cheng's advice and reminder , if it wasn't for the coincidence that he had to turn back to get the dropped cell phone, I'm afraid he would still be obsessed with it.

Now that he has lost the backing of Yan Jing, the original role must be gone. Dinghua Media, which was able to maintain him before, has been acquired by other companies. Naturally, the new owner will not take care of a worthless artist. The starlets he once looked down upon have all been reassigned to managers, but no one has contacted him so far.
