Just like that, it's gone.

Xi Gu's mood, falling and falling.

He did how much psychological padding, and how to rack his brain thinking of going with the flow, and finally get this result, angry almost turned into a blowfish.

Xi Gu didn't have to pretend to be drunk this time, he thought his brain might have been filled with a few bottles of wine, swollen and dizzy.

Just now the noise of the phone rang again, Xi Gu half asleep, half awake, slowly opened his eyes.

The dimly lit back seat of the car, picking up the phone, the tone ambiguous: "Hello?"

Listen carefully, and you can sense Xi Gu's tone is not good.

If it wasn't for the phone call, he wouldn't have been shaking, and if he hadn't been shaking, he wouldn't have been discovered by Jing Rong, and if he hadn't been discovered, maybe now...

You guys really, really came at the right time.

Xi Gu rubbed his head against the door frame and saw Jing Rong looking over, indicating that he had sobered up a bit.

Suddenly was cut off, the heart of the heart of the fireworks, snapped away.

Don't want to talk, a little stuffed.

Yu Liu's loud voice could be heard even by Jing Rong next to him, and he shouted hurriedly, "You finally answered! If you don't pick up, I'll call the police!"

The little actor from the 38th line called something just now rushed in and said Jing Rong had left with a drunk Xi Gu.

Just now Xi Gu said to go to the bathroom, indeed until now did not return, what the situation, this group of LSP can not be good!

Now they can't have a party, and it's important to make sure Xi Gu is safe first.

Xi Gu that thing is still hanging on the Internet, to have a good or bad they are all responsible.

Yu Liu remembered that during the last shooting of Lota, a young Alpha actor stole a room card and went to Xi Gu's room in the middle of the night.

Fortunately, Xi Gu sleeps with his assistant and carries pepper spray with him, so he is aware of the precautions. The young actor didn't want to do anything, but just had a brain fart and wanted to sneak in and confess.

It is this type of confession that is simply bizarre.

But it's not Xi Gu's fault that flowers are beautiful by nature and flower thieves are disgusting.

In Yu Liu's opinion, confessing to Xi Gu is basically a dead end, Xi Gu is a career brain, this group of Alpha are all love brain.

The channels are not even together, there is no future.

"What's the police for?" Xi Gu felt baffled.

"Weren't you taken away by Jing Rong? We are just worried, you are fine!" Yu Liu glared at the small thirty-eight line, this is where the no eyesight, just now that talk about what Xi Gu drunk was taken away, said the fierce thing, they can not misunderstand!

"I've had too much to drink and I don't feel well." Xi Gu opened his eyes and said, " Jing Rong was kind enough to help me get a taxi, why are you people so nasty-minded!"

Xi Gu almost immediately turned on the guardian mode. He didn't want to hear someone say bad things about Jing Rong, or this kind of indiscriminate, and still felt depressed after proving Jing Rong's innocence.

"Police uncles are also very busy, not a big deal don't bother people."

What and what, this is to call the police, you are how idle.

The reason why Yu Liu was so nervous to come several phone calls, necessarily who said a few words.

At that time, there were only three people on the scene, who else could there be.

Xi Gu can immediately guess the process, Ying Qi is right.

Did you come here to kill me?

Tonight, this beam is big.

The car is very quiet, along with the surrounding cars speeding by, Xi Gu's half-drunken raspy voice echoes in the ears.

A hint of drunkenness, three hints of YOU.

The cool breeze from the riverside blew Xi Gu's hair. The orange light of the street lamp was half dim and half dark on his jade white face, he looked like an aggrieved cat, the corners of his mouth sinking, lazily leaning.

Jing Rong was just scanning to observe the state of Xi Gu, but his eyes were glued to it and he could hardly move.

Don't look, it's a man.

Jing Rong sobered up a bit and took a bottle of mineral water from the small refrigerator and handed it over, with two antidote candies in his palm.

Xi Gu only drank a few sips of wine how can be drunk, he took the water, take the sugar, slightly cool fingertips grazed Jing Rong's palm lines, like a piece of feathers dropped thoughtlessly.

Jing Rong quickly withdrew his hand and looked squarely out at the view.

Xi Gu opened the sugar paper, when the mouth filled with sweet orange flavor, the aggravation under the eyes also dissipated in the sweet taste.

Only Jing Rong can give him this sour, astringent and sweet taste.

Originally only a small desire, unknowingly, more and more greedy.

As he got out of the car, Xi Gu's right arm touched the door and he took a small breath.

Jing Rong noticed that he did not know that Xi Gu had crashed in the afternoon and had given all his possessions to an aunt he had never met.

But Jing Rong knows that Xi Gu is a very independent person, so independent that she doesn't want to bother anyone.

It's almost 11:00 p.m. and Jing Rong thinks his nightlife is just beginning.

He also had to read a lot of documents that You Zhou brought up and study online with the professional manager Ling Xie hired for him, which took him till midnight again.

Xi Gu also saw the stack of documents and thought, "Jing Rong is too busy to juggle so many things.

At the request of Xi Gu's rut, their rooms were close together and Jing Rong was too lazy to move after it was over.

By now, You Zhou has already entered the study with his computer and materials, while Jing Rong is hesitant to speak.

Xi Gu looked over, "?"

The pure eyes like glazed pearls, Jing Rong simply can not say, you may have bastards in your pocket to put the love pills such as.

It's better not to mention it, don't let Xi Gu know how dirty the adult world is.

Xi Gu : "......" I heard it all.

I know, I'm wrong, okay?

Xi Gu, who was flushed and a bit overwhelmed, closed the door with a bang.

Xi Gu is temporarily unable to face Jing Rong, casually took a shower and found many more male skincare products in the bathroom, all of which have a pretty good reputation and are more suitable for male stars.

He came in a hurry, here originally did not have these, but now it is the same as the appearance. Xi Gu eyes look over, towels, replacement clothes, washbasin ...... very complete.

Xi Gu came to the washstand and picked up one of the bottles of face wash, a niche brand that he had recommended on air, not as an endorsement, but because he genuinely felt it worked well before pushing it to his fans.

Xi Gu doesn't know if this is a coincidence or if Jing Rong prepared it on purpose; he prefers the latter.

Jing Rong is such a white radish swaying in his heart, the most delicious part is hidden under the soil, and he finally found it by searching for it.

Changing into his T-shirt, Xi Gu flung himself onto the bed, burying his face under the covers, and was extremely excited when he should have fallen asleep soon.

His eyes fell into confusion after his shame.

Tomorrow we will have to choose a random match, no more chances, right?

Xi Gu felt that her body and mind were splitting apart, divided into two halves.

Rolled around in bed and couldn't sleep.

*

After Jing Rong finished talking with the professional manager, he asked You Zhou to send the other documents to the company first, while his robot brother was probably still working overtime.

Jing Rong told You Zhou to focus on the development of Fun and the acquisition of Shengteng Entertainment, a notorious company he wanted to clean up once and for all.

You Zhou expressed understanding, and said an off-topic, Ji's family wants to fish out Jicheng Xie, they want to do something about it.

Jicheng Xie has both Xie and Ji family bloodlines, but because Master Xie cannot see the Ji family's young lady who cheated on him during marriage and is angry with the Ji family for making their affair a win-win situation, he has never thought much of the Ji family, let alone Jicheng Xie, who has Ji family bloodlines.

So from a young age Jicheng Xie and the Ji family closer, but too many children and grandchildren of the Ji family, the struggle for power and profit is white-hot, that group of people from childhood instilled in Jicheng Xie the need for power, only to get power to override everyone.

If Jicheng Xie can do what he did to frame Ling Xie and Zhanhong Xie, then why should the Ji family be left alone?

No, Jicheng Xie chose to be both.

Now the Ji family to help him, purely because he is still useful, and is the second youngest Xie family's part.

Jing Rong knows that Jicheng Xie still has to assassinate the Ji family, but the Ji family side is the main plot of the original, his mind is a fog again.

" You Zhou, you find a way to let these uncles and aunts of the Ji family know about the series of crap Jicheng Xie has done recently, and that Jicheng Xie has paid people off and intends to get rid of them. It's best to let them know that Zhanhong Xie was indirectly put in the hospital." Jing Rong does not want this group of people to keep staring at the Xie family, rather than stirring up a pool of water.

"But it's making something out of nothing, and the Kee family won't necessarily believe it."

"Who said it was created out of nothing, do not doubt, go straight to it." Jing Rong can feel the world will prevent him from thinking up the name of the specific person killed because he destroyed Jicheng Xie to inherit the Xie family, but as the main male Jicheng Xie and the Ji family this golden finger, the heavenly path will change direction to use the Ji family to hold it.

Jicheng Xie can become a strong player in the main attack, is because of the financial strength of the two families.

Jing Rong simply does not remember who is there, let them all think they will be killed. The Jicheng Xie family is one of the red-eyed, found Zhanhong Xie side of the fishy, and then find some Jicheng Xie ready to do the evidence, automatically can become the six parents do not recognize the iron evidence.

At that time, Jing Rong would like to see if the Ji family will still help Jicheng Xie?

You Zhou : "......" young master, so you know more than anyone? The mountain is a good place to sit and watch the tiger fight.

Who would have thought that the one who stirred all this up was the young master who did not seem to be in business and was forced by his brother to spend money on investments.

This dark line, buried so deep ah.

After You Zhou left, Jing Rong went to the window and looked at the sky, which was just like his own world. The blue velvet sky was dotted with stars, and the quiet environment was suitable for thinking.

Today almost lost his life, the scruples about this matter was only temporarily suppressed.

He helped Ling Xie to escape once, why Ling Xie did not encounter danger again?

What's the difference between him and Ling Xie.

Not as much as Ling Xie?

It's all about the cannon fodder that is going down the line, and it's the same with more and less drama.

Jing Rong looked at the floor mirror next to his desk and saw a face that was dozens of percentage points uglier than the original him.

Because not handsome enough?

It can't be such a silly reason.

No, Jing Rong looked again at the mirror.

I am not me.

Because, I'm an otherworldly soul?

Ling Xie is not only about the stumbling block to the protagonist attacking the open life, according to the novel character existence, he is also the indigenous in the original.

His existence is justified, what is not justified is his own soul of the earth.

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning struck the top of the mountain and the flash lit up Jing Rong's face.

The storm clouds change the weather as if to foretell something.

Did you guess correctly?

He is the bug that needs to be cleared the most.

And only by removing him will the plot line have a chance to get back on track.

He changed too many episodes before he knew about wearing the book, as well as after wearing the book. The fate of Feiyu Wu and Xi Gu met to a cut plum, and Jicheng Xie's open life to the butterfly, the original should die people also did not die into ...... a piece of a pile, if the world has the will, of course, to get rid of him first.

As long as he is not dead, the others are safe for now.

He's up there blocking, and Tendo doesn't have the energy to deal with others for now.

So, all he has to do is to live as long as possible in one life and death moment!

A thunderbolt of lightning cuts through the long sky.

Like to split the heaven and earth, the sound is like to tear the eardrums.

As if in anger at this little human, not knowing the sky.

Jing Rong grunted coldly.

It's not that easy to want him dead.

Jing Rong, worried that the thunder would wake Xi Gu, went over and knocked on the door.

Xi Gu's low voice came from inside: "I'm not sleeping."

The screen light of the cell phone illuminated his face, and the screen rested on the official website of Wood Pear, the necklace that had already placed an order.

When he heard Jing Rong's voice, Xi Gu immediately pressed the screen off his phone.

Jing Rong took the medicine box and reopened Xi Gu's room.

It was dark inside, with only the occasional flash of lightning at the window illuminating the interior.

Xi Gu was under the covers, blinking and looking at him.

Seeing that Xi Gu was still awake, Jing Rong turned on the bedside lamp and spread warm light on both of them: "It's been an hour, you're still awake?"

"Woke up by thunder." In fact, just didn't close my eyes, and as soon as I do, I'm reminded of tomorrow afternoon's sentencing.

Unhappy and want to make a scene.

Xi Gu did have serious insomnia, and Jing Rong did not break him down and said, "Hold out your right hand."

Xi Gu : "!"

His hand shrank under the covers.

Jing Rong also did not speak, and the two just stared at each other in a wide-eyed stare.

Xi Gu was watched by Jing Rong's plaintive eyes, a bit overwhelmed, his heart thumping.

The aggrieved beeped, or slowly put out his hand.

Xi Gu : "How did you find out?"

"If I don't find it, you'll pretend it's not there, right?" Jing Rong saw that the bruises on the top might still be too white for Xi Gu's skin, which was particularly obvious, "How did you get it like this?"

"Accidentally bumped into."

"Not telling the truth." As they became more familiar with each other, Jing Rong became a little more nonchalant in his words.

Xi Gu glanced at him, the words, did you just tell the truth to me?

Jing Rong is also an old hand at treating his injuries, and seeing that the skin was not broken, she applied ointment to him and slowly rubbed away the bruises: "Bear with it."

Xi Gu is a little painful, but tolerable.

Instead, he was more concerned about the temperature of another person on his skin.

Mixed with the wet and sticky ointment, a circle drilled into his heart.

The atmosphere was somewhat cozy.

Jing Rong's eyes were downcast and he didn't look at Xi Gu: "Don't always hold it in yourself, you have to say when it hurts, you can try relying on others."

Similarly, Xi Gu has heard Hongyi Guan say the same thing.

But he never took it seriously because he knew his fate was like a curse and he didn't want to drag others down with him.

Xi Gu smiled lightly as if he didn't understand: "Others, you?"

Jing Rong also did not say anything reassuring, just a simple umph.

Xi Gu gazed at the man with a gentle aura radiating from the light.

In fact, this moment is too common.

It wasn't even as tense as it had been in the car earlier, but Xi Gu found it extraordinarily moving.

I feel like I'm soaking in afternoon lemon tea, sour and up, a million little bubbles crackling up.

I had thought the pancake was sweet enough.

But each time it refreshes his perception that it can still be sweeter.

Sweet he simply could not let go.

Jing Rong has a special massage technique, and in his previous life he knew how to remove the bruises by playing more scenes.

The skin that was massaged by him is still hot.

Jing Rong closed the box and asked Xi Gu to put his hand outside first and then put it back when the ointment dried.

Turn off the bedside lamp and take the medicine box to leave.

" Jing Rong ."

Jing Rong turned back.

Xi Gu : Can you stop being so nice to me, I can't help it.

When Xi Gu didn't say anything, Jing Rong: "What's wrong?"

Xi Gu : "...... Good night."

This piece of pancake delivered to his door, just one more bite, he swore it was the last time.

"Well, I'll see you tomorrow."

Jing Rong admires Ling Xie when he thinks of the piles of paperwork he still has to handle, and what kind of a triple-headed man he is to be in charge of such a big company. He can't even manage his own acre of land, he is simply burnt out.

Before entering the group there are one, two, three ...... companies restructuring, acquisition, merger and other official business processing, should we let big brother hire another manager to help?

And also take the time to read the script, acting is the life, refers to this hobby to renew life, can not lose.

Can a day become 48 hours, it's not enough.

Life, it's so hard.

The room was dark again, and Xi Gu felt himself enveloped in darkness again, so he simply sat up and turned on the overhead light.

I can't sleep anyway, so it's better to do something.

Xi Gu also saw the tweet #royalrights, slip powder, this hot search looks bought, but of course part of it is true.

The name is not exposed now, just to be released when there is more controversy and rejection.

By then this newcomer, it is easy to be discharged from the crew, even if not discharged out of the future can not receive the play is unknown, and not yet debuted without the roadside, the killing power is too big.

Then again, Jing Rong has a dark history.

There is no way to wash the previous black history, know more people, the video of the year is still there, the start is not good.

Xi Gu called the water army company he had previously hired and asked them to keep an eye on the situation and post neutral comments that were more passerby if there was a large boycott of the comments.

Good reviews are too obvious and counterproductive.

As a senior love bean, Xi Gu knows not to have a brain of praise, Jing Rong has no works and fame, a fair comment can pull a little passerby good feeling.

Jing Rong was the one he settled on, but he did just find Jing Rong's performance to be amazing.

Jing Rong has a tension in his acting that is in control of the whole situation and allows Xi Gu to see the potential.

That's why Jing Rong never asked why the crew chose him, he trusted Xi Gu's professionalism and wouldn't joke with his career.

The support group created by Xi Gu has more than a dozen applications. Xi Gu's previous efforts to promote the group on bars and forums have been effective.

Xi Gu carefully sifted through the applications, and these fans should at least know Jing Rong's basic information. The majority of these applications, apart from the inexplicable and the hilarious, came for Jing Rong's face, and many of them are hardcore fans of Jing Rong's microblog.

They were pretty excited to be vetted and approved.

Jing Rong does not operate at all, they thought Jing Rong to retire, did not expect to suddenly appear a base, simply an unexpected pleasure.

"Whoops, the baby is finally home."

"I never thought I could wait for the day of the backup group [Buddha's light.jpg]"

"has been concerned about Jing Rong's self-service photos, but these years so little ah, he looks super handsome, can be sweet and salt, entertainment industry this type so little ah!"

"Thank you to the group owner for opening this group, Master Qing back ~ ~"

"I even waited for Jing Rong's support group, is passing level 4 still a dream?"

"Thank you all, I hope to continue to support Jing Rong Oh!"

The Great Wall wasn't built in a day, so Xi Gu thought we should take our time and build a good foundation for Jing Rong first.

Xi Gu is aware that he is not a professional and he does not have the time to take care of it. He plans to wait for Jing Rong's fans to grow and find a reliable one to transfer these over, and then he will be able to finish his work.

There was little he could do for Jing Rong, and a little was a little.

Xi Gu thought of Jing Rong the black history that could not be deleted, since it could not be deleted, not deleted.

During the previous audition, he found out that Jing Rong's fear was not just about the camera, but about being watched.

If you want to overcome it, you need to train again and again, or be surrounded by people to train.

Jing Rong's condition is more psychological, and Jing Rong itself has the idea to change, just need time to train.

Xi Gu dialed a phone number of an acquaintance, who was surprised to find out that it was Xi Gu and was on the verge of screaming.

"Well, it's been a long time ...... I'm fine, don't worry. Recently, ah, not busy ...... can I ask you a favor ......"

After calling this one, continue to dial the next one to confirm the time and schedule with them.

Hopefully, these people, they will be of some use.

Xi Gu finished the phone call, seamlessly fished the script out of his bag and started outlining and writing highlights with a watercolor pen.

He will be on a plane tomorrow night to attend the Venice Film Festival and will be away for several days, so he won't be able to accompany Jing Rong.

The script is not for himself, but for Jing Rong, who is a newcomer even if he is talented, and will make more or less the mistakes of a newcomer.

Dissecting out the script is what makes it easier for him to get into the swing of things.

I don't know how long I've been writing.

A drop of water, without warning, fell on the script.

Xi Gu was busy wiping it off, but the water droplets were getting bigger and bigger.

Xi Gu embarrassingly wiped the water stains on his face.

Just busy doing things temporarily forgotten, but once distracted, the emotions came up again.

What's there to cry about.

It is not to find a matching tool people, physically suitable on the line, who also talk about feelings.

Grow up, grow up.

It's just a temporary marker, not a big deal.

Yes, it's okay.

......

You're just, kind of, resigned.

You just, want so badly to give the initial, to that person.
