Star of tomorrow

Qi Chen has never talked much, now he is talking a little bit to Ji Xing, and when there are outsiders around, he doesn't say a word, just quietly listening to Ji Xing and Su Changyu chatting.

Su Changyu couldn't reveal Ji Xing's identity, so he only chatted about some friends he knew, and mentioned Xiao Shaoyin's cousin, Xiao Shaohan.

"That kid has done some meritorious service recently and gained a lot of goodwill from his cousin. His father praised him for finally doing the right thing by investing in his new film and television company." Su Changyu sneered, "But it's just Just pass on a word, his dad can be happy like this, how bad was this kid before?"

Su Changyu took a sip of tea and pointed to Ji Xing: "But it's thanks to...fortunately, I got a ride with his family, and it's not a loss."

Ji Xing paused when he heard him, and knew that he wanted to say "thanks to you", probably because he was afraid of Qi Chen's suspicion, so he didn't say it.

When Ji Xing knew that Xiao Shaohan and Xiao Shaoyin were relatives, he asked Su Changyu to pass on a message, deliberately revealing that Sheng Yanjie was gay. Xiao Shaohan listened to gossip and did not suspect that Su Changyu did it on purpose. , turned around and hurried to find my cousin.What is Xiao Shaoyin's temper?Turning around, she went to tidy up the Sheng's house, so naturally she didn't have time to ask Qi Chen out for dinner.

Ji Xing kills two birds with one stone, adding trouble to Sheng Yanjie, and helping Qi Chen get rid of a difficult trouble.Xiao Shaohan was praised by his father for this matter, so he was naturally very grateful to Su Changyu, and Su Changyu reaped a lot of benefits from it.

Ji Xing glanced at Qi Chen, seeing that he didn't respond, raised his teacup and touched Su Changyu: "Nowadays, film and television companies may not necessarily make money, and the water is deep inside."

"I'll run away as soon as I make a fortune, and I won't hang out with him for a long time."

Su Changyu said it casually, but Ji Xing is familiar with this feeling. If you have connections and connections, it's easy to withdraw if you want to make a fortune, and money makes money in the blink of an eye.

That was the world Ji Xing was familiar with, and it was completely different from the struggling Golden Triangle.

Probably different "worlds" have their own rules of survival. Ji Xing tapped his finger on the edge of the table, not noticing that Qi Chen had been secretly observing him.

What Su Changyu said was something Qi Chen was not familiar with. From the man's tone, Qi Chen didn't feel any deliberate showing off or bragging, as if eating and drinking were taken for granted. He couldn't help thinking, was Ji Xing like this before?Live so easily, so at ease?

probably?Otherwise they wouldn't be friends either.

This was the first time Qi Chen experienced Ji Xing's past life at close range. He became a little worried for a while, and couldn't help observing Ji Xing's face frequently, worried that he would feel sentimental because of his current situation.

But fortunately, Ji Xing never showed any injustice or sadness, but just listened naturally, complaining a few words from time to time, smiling brightly.

He is a very strong person, Qi Chen couldn't help thinking.

After eating, Ji Xing cleaned up the dishes, and Su Changyu sat on the sofa with arms folded and looked at Qi Chen: "You asked him to wash the dishes?"

Qi Chen noticed that there were some clothes in the pockets on the sofa, which Su Changyu presumably bought, and said calmly, "This is the rule of shared renting."

Su Changyu frowned, thought for a while and said, "I'll pay you an extra sum every month, and you will do these things later."

Qi Chen paused: "I have no reason to charge you."

"Just make extra money." Su Changyu took out his wallet, "He still owes you rent, right? I'll pay it for him first."

Qi Chen glanced at the kitchen, lowered his voice, and looked at Su Changyu coldly: "If you are really good for him, you should take him away."

Su Changyu raised his eyebrows.

"Money is not important to you." Qi Chen said coolly, "Giving something unimportant to you won't prove anything."

Su Changyu had to react for a long time before turning his head and pointing to his nose: "Are you accusing me of not helping him?"

Qi Chen sat on the other side of the sofa, put his hands on his knees, and said casually, "I didn't say that."

Su Changyu: "..."

Su Changyu suddenly felt that the matter became interesting, and looked at him with his chin propped up: "You love him dearly."

It's a declarative sentence, not an interrogative sentence.

The corners of Qi Chen's mouth curled down a little, but he didn't speak.

Su Changyu put away the wallet,

Turning his head and looking in the direction of the kitchen, he moved closer to Qi Chen, and said softly, "Since I love him so much, can I do a job for you? I'll pay you, this amount per month..."

Su Changyu stretched out his hand to gesture, and said with a smile: "I know you are short of money, this is much more than your hard work in a game."

Qi Chen said coldly, "No."

Su Changyu cheered: "Don't rush to refuse, it's about Ji Xing."

There was a little doubt in Qi Chen's eyes, and his expression relaxed a little.

Su Changyu saw it, held back a smile and said: "You also know that his family background was good before, so I won't talk about it, but let me remind you that his family is quite powerful, and it's not like he's not in a corner. Young master, do you understand me?"

Qi Chen said nothing, but frowned slightly.

Su Changyu observed his expression, and said: "He was born with a golden spoon in his mouth, and was raised by the whole family. If it were before, he was bullied in this kind of place, and none of you would Don't think about it. Well, it's just now, the family background...cough, what..."

The corners of Su Changyu's mouth twitched. It was really not good to "curse" the Ji family, so he had to perfunctory, saying: "He came to the Golden Triangle because of no other choice. There are many people who want to deal with him."

"Who?" Qi Chen narrowed his eyes immediately, faintly angry, "He's still a child, isn't it enough to live in this kind of place? Who wants to kill them all?"

Su Changyu: "..." God damn is still a child.

Su Changyu cleared his throat and said, "This matter has nothing to do with you. Do you know those people? Can you help Ji Xing?"

Qi Chen pursed his lips and stared at Su Changyu closely: "What about you? You can't help him either?"

Su Changyu touched his nose in embarrassment: "I can't do it, our family...well, we don't have that ability either."

Qi Chen looked down at the floor thoughtfully.

Su Changyu said seriously: "Actually, I've always been worried that if his...well, my opponent finds this place, he will be in danger." Su Changyu thought about the story in the dog blood TV series, and said nonsense, "Business Competition, you know, there is deep water here. If someone with malicious intentions finds it, it will be dangerous. So I would like to ask you a favor, how about being his bodyguard?"

"bodyguard?"

"I originally wanted to hire professional bodyguards for him outside, but firstly, the price of professional bodyguards is not cheap, and he may not agree to the money I give, and secondly, if someone finds out about professional bodyguards, Instead, your identity was exposed. Look, isn't this ready-made for you?"

Qi Chen frowned: "Is it so dangerous?"

"Just in case." Su Changyu said, "Just say yes or no."

Qi Chen lowered his head in thought, he was a little uncertain - although his occupation gave him a certain ability to protect himself, he was not sure about protecting another person.He has never been a bodyguard, so his sensitivity and intuition for danger are naturally not that sensitive.After all, it is a matter of life and death. Of course, it is more reliable to invite professional people. In case something happens to Ji Xing in his own hands...

Su Changyu observed his expression, and said: "Ji Xing trusts you, I can see that. He trusts you, so it will be much more convenient for you to protect him. You don't need to have too much mental burden, as long as you are with him every day Together, it is enough not to let him out of your sight."

Su Changyu almost laughed when he said that, and hurriedly covered his mouth and coughed.

Qi Chen looked at him suspiciously: "Follow him every day? Is that all right?"

Su Changyu choked back his laughter: "Cough, yes, even if someone wants to target him, you can always see that something is wrong when you are with him every day. Also, you are very familiar with the Golden Triangle, which is your advantage."

Ji Xing didn't know that it was not a big deal for his friends to watch the fun, so he sold himself.When he came out after washing the dishes, he saw the two of them sitting on the sofa muttering something in a low voice, and asked strangely, "What are you talking about?"

"It's nothing!" Su Changyu winked at Qi Chen, stood up and said, "I'm leaving now, are you seeing me?"

"Yeah." Ji Xing glanced at Qi Chen, Qi Chen looked solemn, as if he had something on his mind, and followed Su Changyu to stand up.

"I'll go too." He gave Ji Xing a complicated look, and said in a muffled voice.

Ji Xing:

"?"

Su Changyu secretly laughed in his heart, rubbed his hands together and waited for the good show. Ji Xing really knew him too well. Taking advantage of the darkness downstairs, he secretly pinched Su Changyu, and said harshly, "What are you doing, kid!"

Su Changyu grinned his teeth and made a "shh" gesture, shaking his phone, signaling - I'll tell you later.

Ji Xing and Qi Chen sent Su Changyu to the outside of Golden Triangle Street together. Su Changyu got into the taxi, lowered the window of the car and reported his phone number to Qi Chen, and said meaningfully, "I'll entrust you to take care of the stars."

Ji Xing's eyelids twitched, feeling that something was wrong.

Watching the taxi rush into the convoy like a fish, Ji Xing turned to look at Qi Chen, and said, "What did he say?"

Qi Chen shook his head, and walked back with a heavy heart.

Ji Xing trotted a few steps behind Qi Chen, and said, "No matter what he says, don't believe it, that guy likes to play tricks!"

Qi Chen stopped and turned to look at him: "He said your family is quite powerful, is that true?"

Ji Xing: "..."

Ji Xing wasn't sure what Su Changyu had said, and was afraid of making too many mistakes, so he said, "It's sort of."

"You came to the Golden Triangle to take refuge, right?"

Ji Xing: "..." It's a dog.

Ji Xing bit the bullet: "Evacuation is too exaggerated..."

Qi Chen made a gesture of "you don't need to say more", and said clearly: "I understand."

Ji Xing's head is full of muddleheaded horses, you know what a fart, you know!

Ji Xing felt guilty, embarrassed, and a little guilty, and didn't want to mention this matter again: "You don't have to worry about my affairs. In short, no matter what he says, you don't believe it."

Qi Chen took a deep look at him: "I don't care? Who else can you rely on here?"

Ji Xing froze for a moment, not knowing what he meant.

Qi Chen clenched his fingers by his side and then relaxed, relaxed and clenched again, and suddenly said: "There is something I have been keeping from you."

Ji Xing: "Huh?"

Qi Chen's deep facial features rarely showed a bit of awkwardness, the side of his face flushed slightly, and he stopped looking at him and said: "Actually, I am too."

Ji Xing turned into a repeater: "Huh?"

Qi Chen gritted his teeth: "I like men too."

Ji Xing: "...Huh?"

Qi Chen felt that Su Changyu was right about at least one thing. Ji Xing trusted him very much. If he really wanted to take on this job, then he would not be able to live up to this trust. He had to be more honest and bring Ji Xing closer.

Qi Chen has lived for so many years, and this is the first time he has come out voluntarily. He is a little nervous, and he also has some indescribable expectations—looking forward to Ji Xing's reaction when he knows the truth.

"I like men." After saying that, everything became much easier, Qi Chen relaxed, and said in a deep voice, "I've been keeping this from you, sorry."

Ji Xing: "..."

Ji Xing was a little dazed, but faintly excited: What does he mean by this?Why did you say this suddenly?Could it be...to confess?so direct?He's not ready yet!

Ji Xing's ears turned red suddenly, and he pursed his lower lip, a little embarrassed: "Oh, this, it's nothing. Actually, I also feel a little bit."

"Feeling?" Qi Chen froze for a moment.

Ji Xing picked his fingers back and forth, feeling his heart beating wildly, and said: "It feels like you, although it's not obvious, but... my intuition is quite accurate in this regard." Ji Xing said and laughed, "You Can it be regarded as 'like' attracts?"

Qi Chen nodded and found that Ji Xing didn't resist, so he breathed a sigh of relief: "It's best if you don't get angry, I..."

Ji Xing clenched his fists, and raised his heart in his throat: Are you coming? !Are you really going to confess? !

Qi Chen took a deep breath and said, "Xiao Su told me something about you just now, and I think what he said made sense. We trust each other very much. You are still young, and you are the most sunny and optimistic person I have ever seen." People, very cute and clean."

Ji Xing blinked nervously and frequently, and his mind was buzzing. At this moment, he suddenly realized that he was actually looking forward to Qi Chen's confession, as if he had been waiting for this moment.

No embarrassment, no panic, only full of expectation and joy, he even wanted to

After a while, how to agree, how to kiss...

"I am willing to protect you. If you don't dislike it, you can trust me more." Qi Chen said, "I hope you are safe."

Ji Xing heard such a confession for the first time. Although he didn't mention "like, love" or anything else, he felt that it fit Qi Chen's character, low-key, restrained, simple and affectionate.

It's better than those scumbags who are full of sweet words but stabbed in the back!

The more Ji Xing thought about this, the more he blushed to the neck, and took a step forward, closing the distance with Qi Chen: "Are you stupid? I don't despise you."

Seeing that he agreed, Qi Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Talk to Xiao Su, I won't charge him. I take back what I said before, you are a good friend."

Ji Xing: "..."

Ji Xing: "???"
