One only regrets not having read enough books when he needs them. Zhang Shuo took a deep breath and said simply: "Aren't you two in love? What's wrong with letting him come? Will it save you a piece of meat?" He was very confident.

Qiao Wenzhou withdrew his gaze from the distance. The situation of the crew was unclear, and he didn't want Mr. Chen to get involved in this mess.

He smiled sheepishly, "Mr. Chen is very busy."

Tsk, Zhang Shuo is so disappointed with his friend, he looks like this again!

"Qiao Wenzhou, you two are in a relationship, so this request is not excessive. He only needs to come over to solve your problem. Why do you insist so much?"

Qiao Wenzhou scratched his head and said, "I don't think it's necessary. Mr. Chen is so busy, I don't need to bother him with such a small matter. Anyway... I won't lose a piece of meat, right?"

The raised smile looks silly.

Alas... Zhang Shuo: This child is so sensible that it makes me feel distressed...

He shook his head. "Forget it. Make your own decision."

"Yeah, yeah, I get it." The boy nodded obediently.

Zhang Shuo was worried and said, "If you need my help, don't be polite to me, got it?"

"Yeah!" Qiao Wenzhou smiled harmlessly.

"Alright." Zhang Shuo straightened his clothes, "Then let's go over there. You'll be there soon."

Here, Chen Xingzhu put down his phone and was preparing to work when Secretary Zhang walked in from outside.

"Mr. Chen, the day after tomorrow is the 80th birthday of Mr. Zhong. Miss Chen Aman wants to ask if you want to go?"

Chen Xingzhu: ???

"Who?"

Chen Xingzhu: Who are you talking about?

Secretary Zhang: "The old man of the Zhong family."

"No, that's not what I meant." Chen Xingzhu was full of questions: "Did you just say Chen A'man?"

Secretary Zhang: “Yes, that’s right.”

Chen Xingzhu glanced at the full signal on his mobile phone and became even more confused.

He scratched his head and said, "Okay, I get it. You go ahead and do your work."

Secretary Zhang nodded in agreement.

The next second, Chen Xingzhu quickly opened Chen Aman's chat interface, "???"

The other side replied immediately, "Chen A-man: (picking nose) What?"

"Chen Xingzhu: If you have something to say, you can just tell me directly. Why do you have to ask me through Secretary Zhang?"

"Chen A-man: Tsk, do you think I don't know you?"

"Chen Xingzhu: What's going on? (I really don't understand)"

"Chen A-man: If I inform you directly, will you go?"

Uh...this...

"Chen A-man: You must have a hundred reasons why you can't go."

Chen Xingzhu was speechless. He actually... really didn't want to go...

"Chen A-man: But notifying Secretary Zhang is different."

Chen Xingzhu typed angrily, "Tsk, you are such a cunning fellow!"

Secretary Zhang was informed. This is a business matter and he can't avoid it no matter what he says.

"Chen A-man: Hehe, go ahead, why are you shy? Is there a tiger in the Zhong family?"

"Chen Xingzhu: Don't you know whether there is a tiger or not?"

"Chen A-man: Tsk, you haven't let it go yet? Maybe I don't even remember who you are anymore."

"Chen Xingzhu: Get lost, I don't want to talk to you!"

After sending this message, Chen Xingzhu threw his phone aside and scratched his hair fiercely.

Ahhhh! This is so annoying!

One of the main reasons why he didn't want to go to the Zhong family was the Zhong family's daughter - Zhong Qingli.

When he was a child, his family was close to the Zhong family, and he and Zhong Qingli were of similar age, so it was inevitable that their parents would joke that they should just have a baby marriage.

When he was young and ignorant, he really regarded the other person as his future wife.

But then...

Alas... he always felt sorry for her, even though he had never made any promises and the elders never mentioned the child marriage again.

Logically speaking, he shouldn't... ah... I can't explain it... Anyway... it's quite embarrassing...

Tsk, he really doesn't want to go!

So annoying!

With her hair almost singed from anger, Chen Xingzhu weakly called Secretary Zhang on the dedicated line and said, "Please prepare a gift for me, thank you."

Because of this incident, Chen Xingzhu couldn't even enjoy eating fried chicken.

Hey……

He sighed one after another, and his eyebrows were almost bald due to worry.

At night, as usual, when chatting with Qiao Wenzhou before going to bed, "Qiao Wenzhou: Mr. Chen, are you unhappy?"

Chen Xingzhu's typing speed slowed down. "No."

"Qiao Wenzhou: What happened?"

Alas... Chen Xingzhu sighed again, "Nothing happened."

"Qiao Wenzhou: Is it because of the Zhong family's old man's birthday the day after tomorrow?"

Chen Xingzhu paused, "Huh? How did you know?"

But then, "Oh yes, Zhong Yisi is in the same crew as you."

He asked as a matter of course: "Did he tell you?"

There was a pause before the other side replied, "Well, yes."

But in fact, it wasn’t, it wasn’t Zhong Yisi. As the central figure in the crew, he simply couldn’t say anything to the other party.

The news was told to him by his partner, who also told him some other news.

"What do you think? Am I kind-hearted enough?" Qin Xunwen's voice mixed with laughter came from the receiver.

"What do you want to do?" Qiao Wenzhou clenched his phone.

"I didn't mean to do anything. I just wanted to tell you some news. Don't think so badly of me, kid."

"I see, do you have anything else to say?"

"Tsk, just throw it away after use, how cold-blooded."

If I want to be cold-blooded, can I be colder than you?

After hanging up the phone, Qiao Wenzhou's breathing quickened slightly.

Maybe he had something on his mind, so he was not in a very good state. He NGed several times and Director Qu's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

"Sorry, sorry..."

Qu Tiexin: "Forget it, you should take a rest first."

Qiao Wenzhou quickly responded, "Thank you, Director."

Walking to the open space, Qiao Wenzhou took out his cell phone. He lowered his head and his expression could not be seen clearly.

Just at this moment, trivial discussions came from behind.

"Tsk, the acting is terrible."

“That guy is also the lead actor.”

"Tsk, is the leading role so awesome? Didn't he get it by relying on others?"

"Hey, don't say that. This may be his only chance to act."

"Who says it's not true? The entertainment industry is not for everyone."

Seeing that Qiao Wenzhou didn't seem to react, the voice gradually became louder.

Qiao Wenzhou glanced around and happened to meet the eyes of a man with a pointed chin and monkey cheeks inside.

He was the man who stopped Qiao Wenzhou from using the powder puff in the dressing room that day. His name seemed to be... Skinny Monkey?

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and a flash of anxiety disappeared from his eyes.

At this moment, a half-smiley voice suddenly interrupted, "Then who do you think can stay in the entertainment industry?"

Several people panicked instantly, "Mr. Zhong...Mr. Zhong?"

It’s Zhong Yisi.

He crossed his arms over his chest and didn't look very well.

Several people apologized hastily, with an attitude of fear and trepidation, and it looked like they were almost about to kneel on the ground and kowtow.

The expressions on several people's faces changed from harsh to flattering so quickly that it was almost impossible to tell.

Zhong Yisi, who was originally a little angry, soon became bored. He waved his hand, and several people instantly scattered like birds and beasts.

When there were only two people left at the scene, Qiao Wenzhou withdrew his gaze.

From beginning to end, his expression did not change at all.

He continued to stare down at the black screen of his phone, his eyes empty and unfocused.

Suddenly, a shadow was cast on the side and Zhong Yisi walked over.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?"

Qiao Wenzhou didn't even raise his head, "I'm fine."

It's quite strange. The two people played opposite each other in the drama and were so familiar with each other, but once they were away from the camera, they instantly became strangers.

To the point that until now, the two of them have barely spoken to each other outside of the play.

Zhong Yisi scratched his head, "You..."

Qiao Wenzhou held the phone in silence.

After a while, Zhong Yisi asked: "Do you hate me?" His voice sounded a little lonely.

Qiao Wenzhou tilted his head, "Hmm? Why do you think so?"

Zhong Yisi whispered: "You don't even talk to me."

Qiao Wenzhou: "...I'm not talking to you now?"

Zhong Yisi waved his hands, "No, no, no, I mean you don't usually talk to me."

Qiao Wenzhou raised his eyebrows, "With so many people around you, are you still missing me?"

Zhong Yisi shook his head, "That's different."

Qiao Wenzhou nodded slowly, “Oh okay, I’ll talk to you later.”

Zhong Yisi smiled instantly, "Yeah."

An inexplicable friendship was established.

Then, Master Zhong extended a warm invitation, "My grandfather's birthday is the day after tomorrow, do you want to come?"
