After dinner, when Xiao Jian drove back to the villa, he told Zhang Mu about it in detail.

Zhang Mu was in a delicate mood after hearing the cause and effect: "You agree?"

"No," Xiao Jian said, "I still have some doubts. Besides, this is our family's business, and we need to ask for your opinion."

What he said was serious, Zhang Mu smiled immediately: "Did you listen to what I said?"

"listen."

Zhang Mu joked, "Then what if I disagree?"

Xiao Jian said without hesitation: "Then I don't agree."

Zhang Mu was very happy, and his attitude towards Xiao Jian was very useful. After laughing, he became serious again. After thinking about it, he said, "Do you know that Lin Chen wants to accept F&R's endorsement?"

"I know a little bit, but he has no advantage." Xiao Jian said, "Do you suspect that this matter is not simple?"

"I was skeptical at first, after all, there is no such a coincidence, but Xiao Jiayou also said that Lin Chen would die if he was a little bit off. He can't gamble his life with his future, right?"

"Then based on what you know about Lin Chen?"

Zhang Mu immediately smiled sarcastically: "How do I know him? If I really understood, I wouldn't be so miserable by him."

He paused as he spoke, and then pondered: "But I know that Lin Chen is by no means as pure as he appears on the surface. He is very scheming, he will do anything to achieve his goals, and he is very good at patience, just like he clearly hates me. See I still have a smile on my face.”

Xiao Jian nodded: "He is indeed very resourceful."

"Has Xiao Jiayou made up his mind to be with him?"

"That's what he told me."

Zhang Mu thought about it, and felt that if Lin Chen really got together with Xiao Jiayou, he would be very upset.

"He wants to be with Lin Chen, but you can't stop him. Maybe the more you stop him, the more persistent he will be. It's better to follow him and let them be together. It's courageous for Lin Chen to block that knife for him. , maybe he really likes Xiao Jiayou. Besides, if you agree, you can see what Lin Chen wants to do and whether he has other purposes. If he is sincerely good to Xiao Jiayou and has no other intentions, then I have no objection. "

Zhang Mu said: "Lin Chen and I have long since broken up our friendship."

Xiao Jian lightly squeezed Zhang Mu's hand, "You don't hate him?"

"I hated it before, and the feeling of being betrayed is too bad." Zhang Mu looked at Xiao Jian and said with a smile: "But I don't hate it a long time ago. If it wasn't for him, how could I have met you?"

Xiao Jian smiled softly and said: "I think the same as you. I also want to see what Lin Chen wants to do. I will find out the matter. If he really saved Jiayou's life, I have nothing to say, but he If you dare to play any conspiracy, I will never forgive you."

"Yeah." Zhang Mu could understand: "I'm fine, I'm living with you, not with them, so they can make as much trouble as they like."

Xiao Jian said "Yes", and said: "I will ask Jiayou to tell them that they can be together, but there are conditions. Lin Chen can't reveal his relationship with the Xiao family, and he can't use the Xiao family for profit. If he is sincere If you like Jiayou, you probably won't mind these things."

Zhang Mu nodded and thought it was feasible, and he also wanted to know whether Lin Chen really liked Xiao Jiayou, or just for the benefit of the Xiao family.

Lin Chen woke up not long after being transferred to the ward. The wound was stitched up, so the pain was unavoidable.

He looked at Xiao Jiayou who was sitting by the bed, and said in a daze, "I'm still alive."

"Of course you are alive." Seeing him waking up with a happy face, Xiao Jiayou quickly said, "Don't talk nonsense."

Lin Chen lost a lot of blood, his face was very pale, he smiled weakly and said, "Jiayou, it's good to see you still."

"You can see me not only now, but also in the future."

Xiao Jiayou was very moved by Lin Chen's life-saving grace. He seemed to be a different person, showing unprecedented enthusiasm for Lin Chen: "I have some good news to tell you. Guess what it is?"

"I can't guess, what is it?"

Xiao Jiayou said with a smile: "My dad agrees with us."

"Really?" Lin Chen was extremely surprised.

"Well, when you recover from your injury, I'll take you back, okay?"

Lin Chen seemed to be hit by a huge surprise, he didn't react for a long time, and couldn't hide the smile on his face.

"Okay, of course." He said excitedly.

Xiao Jiayou then said a few words to him, thinking of something, hesitantly said: "But my father agrees with conditions. He asked us not to announce the relationship to the public, let alone disclose your relationship with the Xiao family."

The smile on Lin Chen's face suddenly froze, and his eyes flickered.

"Why?"

"I don't know." Xiao Jiayou said indifferently: "That's not the point, as long as my dad agrees, we don't need to show it to outsiders, right?"

"Yes..." Lin Chen's expression management was a little out of control, but he still maintained a smile and said, "Of course, it's good to be with you."

And where no one could notice him, his heart suddenly fell to the bottom.

But he still had hope, if Xiao Jian could agree with him and Xiao Jiayou, then he could agree to other things, besides, he and the Xiao family were a community of interests, and the Xiao family had no reason to suppress him.

His development is good, which is also beneficial to the Xiao family.

After that, Lin Chen recovered from his injuries for half a month.

He originally had another performance, so he had to suspend it, and his injury was reported by the media, which also attracted a lot of discussion from the outside world.

Some fans greeted Lin Chen distressedly, some black fans gloated about his misfortune, and more wanted the truth, hoping to find out the murderer as soon as possible.

There was surveillance around the place where the incident happened that night, and the perpetrators were quickly arrested.

The investigation revealed that the gangster was a fan of Lin Chen, named Gao Hui, who was somewhat morbidly obsessed with Lin Chen, and had stalked and spied on Lin Chen several times.

After Xiao Jiayou beat him that time, Gao Hui always held a grudge. That night he followed Lin Chen again, and seeing the two making out, he couldn't hold back his jealousy and moved his hands. The target was naturally Xiao Jiayou.

Of course, these are the truth of the case, but Xiao Jiayou was hidden from the public announcement, and it was only said that Gao Hui followed and was later scolded by Lin Chen due to conflicts.

After being arrested by the police, Gao Hui confessed to the crime, and the court judgment went smoothly.

As soon as the truth came out, there was a huge commotion on the Internet. Who would have thought that the murderer who put Lin Chen in danger was actually his own fan.

While condemning the murderer, many officials also took the opportunity to have a serious discussion on how to follow stars correctly and rationally.

The case came to an end temporarily, and Zhang Mu didn't pay any more attention.

After "Phoenix Town" signed the film copyright, it quickly entered the preparatory production stage while the iron was hot.

As the author of the manga, Zhang Mu also has to cooperate with the screenwriter to adapt it, so as to better condense and perfect the plot.

This is a big project. After all, the original manga has a lot of plots, and it is bound to be deleted after it is made into a movie. What to keep and what to delete becomes the key point, which is more related to the excitement of the plot.

Zhang Mu and the director of the film version naturally hope that the film will be well received and sold at the box office.

Fortunately, he shares the same philosophy as the director, and both agree that more money should be spent on scene props, and that actors with acting skills who fit the roles should also be hired, instead of spending 70% of the funds on hiring those flashy traffic stars.

He was busy going to work, cooperating with adapting the script, and accompanying Peipei, but he didn't pay much attention to it. It was the time when Xiao Jiayou said he would take Lin Chen home.

Zhang Mu had the idea of ​​avoiding seeing him, but he quickly dismissed the idea. He didn't do anything wrong, so there is nothing to be afraid of. If he is afraid, it should be Lin Chen.

Besides, when he was with Xiao Jian, he was a generation taller than Lin Chen, so it was quite cool to think about it.

When Xiao Jiayou and Lin Chen arrived, Zhang Mu was painting with Peipei, and Xiao Jian was sitting beside him, the atmosphere was very warm and beautiful.

The two came over with a lot of presents, Xiao Jiayou called "Dad", stood in front of Xiao Jian and behaved himself.

Lin Chen followed suit and called "Uncle", smiling all over his face, looking really pretty and friendly.

After he finished speaking, his gaze touched Zhang Mu who was next to him again, his expression froze suddenly, and an imperceptible embarrassment flashed in his eyes.

"Zhang Mu." He finally greeted with a smile, "Long time no see."

The attitude was as peaceful as if nothing had happened before.

Zhang Mu looked at him, marveling that Lin Chen is really good at disguising, and said with a half-smile: "Well, who knows that we will see each other again."

Lin Chen smiled, unable to maintain his expression.

Xiao Jiayou glared at Zhang Mu, but dared not speak out.

Now in this family, he listens to his father, his father listens to Zhang Mu, and his grandparents also favor Zhang Mu. He has nothing to do with Zhang Mu.

During the meal, the atmosphere at the dinner table was very awkward and silent, and all the delicacies were placed on the table, but Xiao Jianben didn't talk much and looked very serious, how could Lin Chen dare to talk to him.

Xiao Jiayou didn't even bother to speak, and just concentrated on eating, probably because he was used to this kind of atmosphere.

Lin Chen was eating, but his head turned quickly.

After thinking about it, he intentionally showed his kindness to Zhang Mu: "Zhang Mu, do you remember? When we were in school, we said that it would be nice if we could be neighbors in the future and take care of each other. I didn't expect it to come true now."

He paused as he spoke, before seriously expressing his position: "Also, I was ignorant before and did some wrong things. You are a big man, so don't bother with me. I really like Jiayou. Don't worry, I will definitely I will treat Jiayou well."

What he said was really embarrassing.

Perhaps Lin Chen wanted to ease the relationship with Zhang Mu, and took the opportunity to let Zhang Mu step down.

Zhang Mu was reminded of the past, but not as Lin Chen wished.

"Oh, did I say that? I don't remember." He said coldly, "You and Jiayou are your business. You don't need to report to me, and I don't care."

His tone was direct and merciless, he immediately blocked Lin Chen's words and interrupted the topic.

Although he is relieved now, he will never be able to forgive what Lin Chen and Xiao Jiayou did.

Lin Chen couldn't hide his embarrassment, he opened his mouth to make fun of himself, but was unable to speak again.

Probably because he failed to find a breakthrough from Zhang Mu, Lin Chen then turned to Peipei.

After dinner, Peipei was running and playing.

Lin Chen watched it for a while, then smiled and wanted to touch Peipei's head, with a friendly smile on his face.

But before he touched it, Peipei ran away in fear.

Lin Chen's hands were empty, and his expression was very embarrassed. He didn't expect a child to be so wary of him.

Peipei and Zhang Mu are so close, maybe it was Zhang Mu who taught them.

He thought about the haze in his heart.

Xiao Jiayou asked puzzledly, "What are you doing?"

Lin Chen was even more embarrassed immediately, he could clearly feel that he was obviously an outsider who didn't fit in.

"I think Peipei is cute. I wanted to touch him, but I didn't expect to scare him. It's my fault."

Xiao Jiayou glanced at Peipei, pretending not to see the light in Peipei's eyes, humming inappropriately: "How cute."

Lin Chen forced a smile and didn't speak any more.

When it was time to leave, Xiao Jiayou "reluctantly" took out a gift box and stuffed it for Peipei, and said perfunctorily, "Here, I didn't lie to you about the gift you gave me."

Peipei likes painting, so he did what he likes, and what he gave was an exquisite painting album.

Peipei accepted the gift with a face full of surprise, and said crisply: "Thank you brother."

Xiao Jiayou turned his head awkwardly, with an uncomfortable expression, then ruffled Peipei's hair in disgust, turned and left.
