It was within Jiang Bailu's expectation that he did not receive Cen's employment notice.It was also within his expectation to receive the recruitment call from the publishing group.On the first day of reporting at the new company, he ran into the new movie queen whom he met at Song Tang's birthday party a few weeks ago at the elevator entrance.

There were a lot of people crowded around in the corridor, the elevator door opened slowly, the sister from the personnel department pulled him back to make way for a group of people beside him, Tong Wei, who was in the center of the crowd, turned her face away after hearing the sound, her eyes were calm and unwavering The ground brushed across Jiang Bailu's face, and with the support of his assistant, he stepped into the spacious and bright elevator.

Jiang Bailu lowered his eyes, but his heart was like a mirror. The other party probably recognized him.

This idea was thoroughly confirmed half an hour later.The personnel elder sister led him to the studio to familiarize himself with the environment, but Tong Wei, who was sitting under the light and posing, turned her eyes away and asked Jiang Bailu to take pictures of herself.

Jiang Bailu was stunned for a second, then walked forward with a calm expression, taking over from the original photographer to complete the rest of the filming work.During the break, Tong Wei went into the dressing room next door to touch up her makeup. Two minutes later, the other party's assistant quietly walked up to Jiang Bailu and asked him to come.

Jiang Bailu followed the assistant into the dressing room, sat in front of the makeup mirror and closed her eyes to rest herself. Tong Wei opened her eyes, looked at Jiang Bailu carefully again, and said jokingly: "Mr. How are you going to repay me for getting in trouble and losing roles in two big-budget movies?"

"It's my fault that Sister Tong lost her role. It's just that I want to return Sister Tong's role, but I'm powerless. The relationship between Mr. Cen and I hasn't reached that level yet." Jiang Bailu laughed sincerely, "It's not as good as Tong Sister's role." Sister, do me a favor and let me make amends with dinner."

What Jiang Bailu said, Tong Wei's expression remained unchanged, but she didn't believe it at all in her heart.Not to mention that she has been in the entertainment circle for so many years, she has never seen any kind of investor, but she has never seen a man who can climb into Cengo's bed.

Just because the other party can let Cengo not wait for a while, and solve this problem directly in the toilet cubicle, it is enough for Tong Wei to look at him with admiration.

Although he couldn't catch up with Cengo himself at the beginning, if he could catch up with the little lover next to Cengo's pillow with only two lost characters, it would definitely not be a loss-making deal.She showed a delicate and beautiful smile, "Since that's the case, I hope Mr. Cen won't mind."

The place for dinner is a well-known member-only Japanese restaurant in Forty-Nine City.The owner of the restaurant is a film king who retired years ago, and he pays great attention to the privacy and safety of customers. Even though the film king has retired, the contacts accumulated in the circle over the years are still not to be underestimated. A-line star actors are frequent customers of this restaurant.

In the restaurant, tatami mats and low tables are arranged beside the huge floor-to-ceiling windows. The dining tables are isolated by exquisite Japanese-style screens and dark cyan curtains, and the ukiyo-e prints on the screens are vivid.

Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows is a long sunken wooden corridor. Hand-blown Edo glass wind chimes are hung under the eaves. The inside of the glass is hand-painted with complicated patterns, and there are brightly colored short books hanging below.There are two plain round cushions on the side of the porch.

Outside the corridor is a lush Japanese-style courtyard. There is a beautiful large water tank in the courtyard, and three or five red koi swim lazily in the water tank.

Tong Wei and Jiang Bailu met at seven o'clock sharp, and finally arrived at a quarter past seven o'clock.She took off her shoes and took her seat, with a smile on her face and said: "Sorry, it's been a long time. I just met the director of the new film crew in the front hall and came over for dinner. After calling me over, he even told me a lesson."

Jiang Bailu handed over the menu, "Does Sister Tong have any other activities tonight?"

Tong Wei took the menu with one hand and put it down, and with the other hand gently rolled up the broken hair hanging from the corner of her forehead, "I was supposed to come over to have dinner with the director of the new crew tonight, but I turned off the dinner on the pretext of something urgent " She paused, raised her head, and winked at him playfully, "Because of you."

Jiang Bailu folded his hands on the side of the table, and answered without changing his expression: "Then I probably have to treat Sister Tong to dinner again, so I can clear up."

Tong Wei laughed again, her eyes full of charm.The gorgeous and full red lips parted slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but was suddenly interrupted by the vibrating mobile phone in his jacket pocket.She took out her mobile phone and put it to her ear, "Director Chen?"

The person on the other end of the phone said something.Tong Wei raised her slender eyebrows, "Then you have to ask the gentleman sitting across from me first." After she finished speaking, she put one hand on the phone and turned her eyes to Jiang Bailu, "Mr. The director we met in the hall seemed to want to invite us to join them for dinner."

Jiang Bailu said calmly, "I'm a young photographer who has just returned to China. I really don't have any place worthy of Director Chen's invitation to dinner at the same table."

"If I remember correctly," Tong Wei thought for a second, smiling, "Mr. Jiang's father should have cooperated with Director Chen in a film project last year."

Jiang Bailu spoke frankly, "Sister Tong also said it was my father. My father is my father, and I am me. To be honest," he drew his tone slightly, pretending to sigh, "When I went abroad to study six years ago, my roll noodles My father asked someone to help me forge the grades."

"Okay." Tong Wei shrugged regretfully, "Then I have to help our young master Jiang refuse." She raised the phone again, only to find that the call had been hung up from there 30 seconds ago. Lost.

"I think—" She turned over the screen of the phone she hung up to show Jiang Bailu, with a hint of teasing in her tone, "I seem to have a bad premonition. You know," her voice rose happily , "Director Chen is a stubborn old man who is not easy to dismiss."

The stubborn old man who was not easy to dismiss in Tong Wei's mouth fell off before he arrived, but his voice was thick and solid, and he sounded full of air through the curtain: "Well, Tong Wei, I still plan to be at the dinner table tonight, yes Let us, the investor, praise you. It’s good for you, not to mention rejecting the dinner party of the crew, but hiding in this corner and making arrangements for me with others.”

After finishing speaking, the speaker opened the curtain and stepped in, turned to introduce the man, his face was full of complacency that didn't match his age, "I just got up and went to the door to meet Mr. Cen, so I just stopped by to find you. Tong Wei , if you don't go to dinner with us, then it's not because you don't give us Cen face."

Jiang Bailu, who was sitting on the inside, froze for a second, and looked past Director Chen.

Several crew members and popular actors gathered outside the curtain, among them was a man in a tall and straight suit who was standing like a star, with an expensive high-end suit jacket draped in his arms.

The dull and indifferent gaze, as if substantive, swept across Tong Wei's beautiful face in a perfunctory manner, and landed on Jiang Bailu's face, with unclear emotions in his eyes.
