Fangzheng stared at the boy in a daze, and asked the boy to come over to drink with Guan Qianyue, and said with a smile: "This is Guangya's Mr. Guan, you take care of him, maybe you will be popular tomorrow."

Guan Qianyue remained calm and asked lightly, "What's your name?"

The boy's voice was too low, covered by the cheers of rolling the dice, Guan Qianyue only heard his surname was Liu.He does look a bit like Chu Quan, but his temperament is quite different.Just like duckweed, no matter how beautiful it is, it is rootless after all.

Guan Qianyue said, "Sit down."

The boy was quite discerning, and he brought tea and wine to Luo Xiao and Guan Qianyue from time to time, without talking too much.Seeing that Luo Xiao didn't play cards with them today, Guan Qianyue was quite surprised: "You don't want to play."

Luo Xiao shook his head: "What has your brother been up to lately?"

"Don't you know." Guan Qianyue said, "When I was young, I was so dog-legged. One day, I thought you would be the first to contact him when you came back. But he's been very busy recently, and he's about to get engaged."

"What?" Luo Xiao yelled, the surroundings became silent for a moment, and everyone's eyes focused on them.Luo Xiao forced a smile: "It's okay, you can continue playing."

Guan Qianyue muttered: "It's inexplicable."

Later, Luo Xiao drank several large glasses of spirits, Guan Qianyue was afraid that something would happen to him, so he told the little boy not to pour him any more.On the way, he answered a call from Chu Quan, saying that "Dark Night" was finished and the whole crew wanted to have dinner together.Guan Qianyue was going to ask when the dinner was over so that he could pick him up, but Chu Quan hung up the phone.

"Tsk tsk tsk, who is it?" Luo Xiao put down his wine glass and folded his arms to read Guan Qianyue's joke: "Don't be dumped."

Guan Qianyue glared at him: "None of your business."

After being awkward with Chu Quan for several days, Guan Qianyue thought it was time to get back together, but Chu Quan was still so lukewarm.He was suffocated in his heart, and he hung out in the club for a while before asking the driver to pick him up - he lost 10,000+ in a card game halfway through, and was ridiculed by Luo Xiao as "frustrated in love, and also frustrated in the casino".

The driver drove the car to the entrance of the hotel next to the film and television base.Guan Qianyue counted the time, more than two hours had passed since Chu Quan made the phone call, and it was time for the finale banquet to end.He called Chu Quan's cell phone, but it took a long time before he was picked up.

"Where are you?" Guan Qianyue lost his money after drinking, and got a little angry: "Come down quickly, I'll wait for you at the hotel entrance."

Holding the boarding pass, Chu Quan unconsciously tapped on the armrest of the seat. After a while, he said, "I'm at the airport and I'm about to board the plane."

"Airport?" Guan Qianyue repeated in disbelief, wondering, "Where are you going?"

"Go back to H City to accompany my grandparents." Guan Qianyue's figure appeared in front of Chu Quan looking around downstairs in the hotel, suddenly felt distressed, and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, I forgot to tell you, and caused you to make a futile trip. "

So there are some things that really hurt the enemy one thousand and self-harm eight hundred, such as the love that you don't want to admit.

"But didn't you agree to go to the hot springs with me..." Guan Qianyue felt that he lacked confidence and coughed twice: "That's fine, you can accompany the old man well, and video with me at home, I think Look at you. Besides, your grandpa and I can talk quite well."

"Okay." When boarding began, Chu Quan wrapped the scarf twice with one hand, and said, "Your friends should not be gone yet, why don't you go back and continue playing?"

"It's nothing fun, and I'm losing money." Guan Qianyue ordered the driver to drive to the villa in the middle of the mountain, and said to Chu Quan: "Just now they called a few boys, and one of them looks a lot like you."

"Really." Chu Quan walked slowly across the covered bridge. In the night, the wing of the plane was like a sharp knife cutting the throat. As he approached, it cut deeper into the flesh.

Guan Qianyue sighed helplessly, and then called his name in a gentle, solemn and unquestionable tone: "Chu Quan, when you come back, let's have a good talk."

There are a few stars dotted on the dark blue sky, the light is dim, but it never stops twinkling.Chu Quan stopped and stared for a while, then agreed, "Okay."

The plane arrived on time, Chu Quan hailed a taxi and went back to his grandparents' house.It was quite late, but fortunately the old couple was still up. Seeing Chu Quan come back, his grandma was so excited that she burst into tears.Grandpa Chu Hui rebuked him happily: "This kid, I don't know how to say hello in advance. You don't know that my blood pressure gets high when I get excited."

"I was wrong, I will tell you in advance next time." Chu Quan smiled and criticized himself. Seeing several boxes of supplements piled up in the living room, he knew that Chu Hanlin had come back some time ago, but if the two old people didn't mention it, he would Pretend not to see.

That night Chu Quan ate tomato and egg noodles made by his grandma, and went to sleep contentedly. He woke up early the next day, and accompanied Chu Hui to the park for a bird walk.Chu Hui raised a starling, and taught it to talk when he had nothing to do, but the starling would repeat a few words over and over, and the most he said was "what to eat today".

Chu Hui and his friends who were familiar with each other met in the park, hung the birdcage on the branch, untied the black cloth, and the birds began to sing one after another.Chu Quan said hello to several old people, and his grandfather proudly introduced: "My grandson!"

Those old people didn't know that Chu Quan was a star, so they simply asked him a few words and they chatted about their daily topics.Chu Quan stepped aside, took out his cell phone and took a picture of his grandfather giving advice.

With crisp or tactful birdsong echoing in his ears, Chu Quan sat on the bench in the park, feeling that everything was very intimate.This is his hometown. Although the geographical location is not good, it lacks historical and cultural heritage, and its development is relatively slow, there is always a corner in it that can soothe restless souls.

In fact, I want to ask Guan Qianyue to come here to see, he should stand in front of the cage and compete with the birds for the loudest voice.Chu Quan couldn't help laughing at this thought, and then remembered the phrase "Go back and talk", and couldn't help feeling a little sad.

Guan Qianyue must have felt what he felt, maybe this relationship has come to an end.

A row of ants crawled past Chu Quan's feet carrying food. He subconsciously looked up, and there was no cloud on the pale blue sky.Chu Quan said to himself: "I have to be sure once, right?"

He stayed at home for five days, during which he kept in touch with Guan Qianyue on WeChat intermittently, chatting about homely topics such as "Have you eaten and what did you eat" and "How are your grandparents?"On the fifth day, Guan Qianyue sent a video request to come over and chatted with Chu Quan's grandparents for a while.Guan Qianyue deliberately imitated the accent of City H in order to get close to the old cliché, making the three people on the other side laugh out loud.

Before the video hung up, Guan Qianyue lowered his voice and said to him, "Quan Baoer, come back quickly."

The heart seemed to be gently swept by a feather, itchy and sore.Chu Quan has lived for more than 20 years without doing a few impulsive things, but when he stood outside the terminal building in City H, he suddenly felt that everything should be like this.

The plane landed in City S at two o'clock in the morning, and Chu Quan was so sleepy that he couldn't keep his eyes open, so he fell asleep when he got home.

It didn't take long to hear the phone buzzing and vibrating beside him. He didn't want to move, and just waited for the other party to run out of patience and hang up the phone. Unexpectedly, the phone didn't stop ringing for five or six minutes. Chu Quan let out an irritable "ah" and pressed the answer button , Chen Ling screamed eagerly: "Something has happened!"

Chu Quan opened his eyes suddenly: "What's wrong?"

Chen Ling was so excited that she could speak incoherently, and every sentence was like a heavy hammer: "Go and see Weibo hot searches! It's blown up! You, you, you... are not newcomers who just debuted, why don't you have any sense of protection, how could you Let people take pictures! Guangya is too, I can't hold it down for two hours!"

Chu Quan hung up the phone and clicked on Weibo, and saw his name prominently displayed on the headline, followed by Guan Qianyue's name, and the word "Nurture" was extremely eye-catching.

The account that broke the news first belonged to a tabloid. It first said how about a celebrity with the surname C, but did not mention his name, but the description pointed directly at Chu Quan.Chu Quan's fans naturally quit, and both sides pinched each other, and the person who broke the news "put a real hammer".

All of this was done extremely skillfully, and it seemed that someone was behind it.The whistleblower used vicious words, describing Chu Quan's unscrupulous pursuit of superiority, and also said that Guan Qianyue's promiscuous style and poor character.The article starts from when Guan Qianyue photographed Chu Quan's shirt in the night of the heart lamp, until he invested in "Dark Night" and let him play the leading role. There is a lot of black material about Chu Quan bullying newcomers and suppressing colleagues.As for some of the names he mentioned, Chu Quan didn't even remember them at all.

The article repeatedly mentioned "support", "hidden rules", and "bullying others", quickly occupying the moral high ground, and even stated that he is not discriminating against homosexuals, but just can't understand this kind of behavior that has no lower limit.

In just one hour, the article had been forwarded tens of thousands, and Chu Quan's private mailbox was full of obscenities.

The cold air continued to penetrate into his body, Chu Quan's cold fingers slid across the secretly taken photos one by one, and finally stopped on the short recording.

"Believe it or not," Guan Qianyue seemed to be calling someone, and said frivolously, "I don't like him, I just want to sleep with him. Really."

Chu Quan leaned against the head of the bed, his body shook slightly.There seemed to be an invisible sharp knife piercing through the heart in the air, and the thin and dense barbs tore the flesh, and the gravel was blown in, squeezing and rubbing deep in the wound, the pain was so painful that one wished to die immediately.

The phone rang again, this time it was Guan Qianyue's number.Chu Quan hung up on him three times, but he still hit him unrelentingly.Later Chu Quan picked it up, but Guan Chi's voice came from inside: "Chu Quan? You have seen the news. Don't go out these few days. The public relations teams of Guangya and Feitian have already connected, and your Weibo will also be handed over to you." Special people will manage it, and this matter will be properly resolved, so don’t worry too much.”

With a hoarse voice, Chu Quan said with difficulty, "Thank you Mr. Guan." After a pause, he still asked, "What about him?"

"Shut up at home and meditate."

"Oh." Chu Quan hung up the phone.

He stayed at home for the next few days and lived a life that was almost isolated from the outside world.If you can't sleep at night, go to the gym or find a long black-and-white movie to watch.

He doesn't feel hungry or sleepy. Home is the safest place. He hides here, and the huge waves on the Internet will never hit him.If possible, Chu Quan would rather never go out to meet people again.

It's just that this last line of defense sometimes collapsed. One day when he went downstairs to get a drink, the door of the house opened with a "beep".

Guan Qianyue walked in with a haggard face, and soon saw Chu Quan standing in front of the refrigerator. "Are you okay?" he asked, sounding like he had a cold.

Chu Quan nodded slowly.

"I ran out," Guan Qianyue had a green stubble around his lips, he took a few steps forward, and touched the pocket of his jeans nervously: "I just want to tell you, that recording... ...I don't know what's going on...you still don't understand my thoughts."

"You don't need to explain." Chu Quan interrupted him with a pale face: "I said before, you helped me, I can sleep with you, and I will never interfere with your private life—"

Guan Qianyue kicked the low stool next to the tea table flying, and the low stool hit the wall, smashing the vase when it fell, and the sound of continuous explosions reverberated in the villa, which made people shudder.

Chu Quan had never seen Guan Qianyue lose his temper before, he was startled, and his fingers were tightly digging at the leather top of the sofa.The anger in Guan Qianyue's eyes almost burned Chu Quan to ashes, his chest heaved violently, and the veins on his fists were bulging.A moment later he slammed the door and left, putting a stop to the noise.

Chu Quan stood there for a while, then knelt down to pick up pieces of the vase.Large and small pieces of porcelain were stuck in the carpet, and he concentrated on picking them up for a long time until he heard someone banging on the door.

Standing outside the door was a distraught Chen Ling, who scolded Chu Quan when she saw him, "How long are you going to pretend to be dead?"

The so-called nurturing incident gradually subsided after a week, and the new hot search was the exposure of an artist's extramarital affairs in Chihai.Guangya's reaction was very quick - there was no time for them to procrastinate. The day after the gossip broke out, the stocks of the two listed companies controlled by the Guan family fell to the limit at the opening, causing huge losses.In the official article published by Guangya Media, the relationship between Chu Quan and Guan Qianyue was vaguely described as "good friends", leaving people's daydreams at the same time, and it was justified that the so-called "nurture" is nothing, Chu Quan did not "bully" the newcomer through Guan Qianyue, nor did he maliciously steal other people's roles.The so-called intimate photos were interpreted as a joke between two friends. Regarding the recording, a seemingly professional appraisal conclusion was also made, which proved to be a patchwork and forgery.

Feitian's public relations personnel cooperated with Guangya to post a statement on Chuquan's Weibo account, the tone was neither humble nor overbearing, and the content echoed Guangya's statement.People in the circle who have a good relationship with Chu Quan and are more righteous, such as Zhou Mian, reposted this Weibo to express their support.During this period, Guangya has been guiding public opinion and exposing Chihai's black material in due course, and this matter has been covered up like this.

These are all Chen Ling told him. Chu Quan still refuses to watch TV, refuse to surf the Internet, and refuse to read any news about himself.He knew it would haunt him forever, like a haunting ghost.No matter how many years have passed in the future, there will always be some netizens who think they are all-knowing and omnipotent will dig up a distant link, and then ruthlessly laugh at him: "He, isn't he the hero who kept the family back then?"

Why care about it, Chu Quan said to himself over and over again, anyway, this is also true.

"What are you going to do in the future, you have just transitioned and you have to rest for a while." Chen Ling looked at him sadly: ""Dark Night" became popular because of your scandal."

Chu Quan had no time to take care of that now, so he called his grandparents back. The two elders heard the news from somewhere, and they were so anxious that they almost took the plane to teach him a lesson.Guan Qianyue's identity could not be hidden at all, and Chu Hui kept asking him what was going on.Chu Quan mechanically explained: "It's all fake, don't listen to those people talking nonsense."

"Don't do this to me, are you so old-fashioned when we are two old men? Xiao Guan looks good to me, if you fall in love, we have no objection!"

Chen Ling, who was next to her, almost stood up and applauded Chu Quan's grandfather when she heard this.Chu Quan had two big dark circles under his eyes, his face was ashen, and he didn't say a word.

"I'm going to let you show your face in front of the media in the near future." Chen Ling waited for him to hang up the phone, and explained the purpose of today's visit: "If you keep hiding, it will make people feel guilty. The press conference of "Dark Night" after a while is a good opportunity , as the leading actor, you should have participated." She waved her hand in front of Chu Quan: "Did you hear that?"

Chu Quan nodded: "Understood."

Early in the morning of the press conference, Chen Ling and Qin Lan took the makeup artist to Chu Quan's house.Chu Quan had lost a lot of weight, his eyes were bloodshot, his hair had grown and he hadn't managed it, and he looked like he hadn't slept for several days. "You're playing a vampire." Chen Ling dismissed the others, and said earnestly, "I know you haven't encountered such a big negative news since your debut, but now the matter is over, you have to adjust your state, always like this How can you be anxious?" She looked at the messy room and asked, "Didn't you say before that you live with Mr. Guan, and he's busy with nothing recently and doesn't accompany you."

Chu Quan's face became even paler.Chen Ling coughed, and called the makeup artist over: "It doesn't matter, let's put on makeup first."

As soon as Chu Quan arrived at the press conference, all the cameras were aimed at him, and white flashes formed one piece.He subconsciously turned his head away, Chen Ling pinched his arm beside him, and then he squeezed out a stiff smirk, looked at the ground, and quickly walked onto the stage.

Zhou Mian was next to him. After Chu Quan took his seat, he asked softly, "Brother Chu, are you alright?"

Chu Quan nodded, remembering that Zhou Mian had helped him speak, so he said thank you.

This was the longest press conference Chu Quan had ever experienced, and he didn't even know how he made it through.With long guns and short cannons pointed at him, the reporters asked sharp questions one after another, and all kinds of eyes were like poisoned daggers, vowing to cut a piece of flesh from him.

"What's your relationship with Guan Qianyue?"

"Is it true that you asked people to block Guo Cang and Yan Liang?"

"How do you explain those pictures?"

"Guang Ya's announcement is full of doubts, what do you think?"

Chu Quan sat upright, crossing his fingers in front of him
