Lu Mengxin stood aside and listened to their conversation calmly, thinking to himself: Yes, it was not an accident that the two ran into each other on the set that day - it seems that Ji Chuhuan also wanted to spend time digging out news about An Yuan.

An Yuan chatted with Ji Chuhuan for a few words, and then Director Lai also joined their conversation. The three of them spoke with great interest, obviously leaving Lu Mengxin on the sidelines in the cold.

Lu Mengxin didn't think of this limelight, but Ji Chuhuan didn't let him go.

After a topic was over, he took the lead to ask, "This... If I'm not mistaken, he should be the most famous paparazzi in the entertainment industry—Mr. Lu Mengxin, right?"

When Lai Songcheng heard the other party's background, his expression froze slightly, his eyes showed a hint of vigilance, and when he looked at Lu Mengxin again, his expression was not as easy-going as before.

Seeing the end of the topic, An Yuan didn't stay any longer. After greeting Director Lai, he led Lu Mengxin and prepared to leave.

Ji Chuhuan stood where he was, with contempt in his eyes, and said to Lai Songcheng: "Director Lai...you don't know, this is the entertainment reporter who broke the news of "Love in a Fallen City" before, and now he is in Shenghui Media, they made a lot of money by selling this revelation."

Lai Songcheng recalled that he suffered a secret loss from Gao Jinyang a few days ago, and wondered, "How did Sheng Hui recruit such a person?"

"You don't know..." Ji Chuhuan smiled, and explained: "Lu Mengxin's reputation in the paparazzi circle has never been very good, I heard..."

An Yuan led Lu Mengxin away gradually, neither of them expected to kill Ji Chuhuan halfway, An Yuan first asked: "Is this old acquaintance with you?"

Lu Mengxin echoed absently, nodded and admitted, "Well, it's... an old acquaintance."

The paparazzi circle is similar to the entertainment circle, An Yuan saw that Lu Mengxin's expression was very ugly, and the two of them must have had a feud before.

At this moment, the two of them had already walked back to the venue, An Yuan was about to ask another question, but his eyes were unnaturally attracted by the figure of a person in the crowd, and he stopped in surprise and did not move forward.

Lu Mengxin followed his gaze, and saw Gao Jinyang surrounded by a group of people, beside him stood Zhao Zixiang and Yan Jiashan who had met several times.

Yan Jiashan has developed a good skin. He has been soft in accepting dramas in the entertainment circle these years, and he can be regarded as prosperous. Most of the people around him are his loyal fans and die-hard fans; Gao Jinyang is an investment in the circle. Boss, and the identity of the major shareholder of Shenghui Media, this kind of occasion inevitably has to deal with all the directors and newcomers who fawn on him, and his face gradually shows impatience; and Zhao Zixiang, as the host of this dinner, stood With Yan Jiashan and Gao Jinyang, even if they wanted to keep a low profile, they would be unable to do so.

An Yuan was only stunned for a moment, then raised his legs and walked in the direction of the three of them.

Lu Mengxin was unwilling in his heart, but he couldn't, so he could only bite the bullet and follow up.

"Mr. Gao, Mr. Zhao." An Yuan greeted them both very familiarly, but when his eyes fell on Yan Jiashan, he didn't say a word.

Gao Jinyang glanced at this person who came out of nowhere, at first he only thought it was some [-]th-line actor, after a closer look, he finally recognized An Yuan—the two TV dramas that Sheng Hui invested in this year are both It's him who plays the leading role. It's hard for Gao Jinyang not to know him.

But Zhao Zixiang didn't react as quickly when he saw someone coming.

He vaguely remembered that this face made headlines in the entertainment news a few days ago. As one of the leaders of Anyuan's agency, Zhao Zixiang had a cold attitude and responded, "You're here too? Why don't you see Director Lai?"

An Yuan answered respectfully, "Director Lai is dealing with a small entertainment reporter, and he won't be able to leave for a while."

Zhao Zixiang snorted softly, "The old man likes to do such nonsense." He turned his head and said to Gao Jinyang who was beside him, "Look, there should be news tomorrow."

Gao Jinyang let out a "huh" and ignored him, his eyes fell on Lu Mengxin.

After Zhao Zixiang finished speaking, he also saw Lu Mengxin standing next to An Yuan, "Hey... Mr. Gao, I saw an old friend today."

Lu Mengxin replied patiently, "Hello, Mr. Gao, Mr. Zhao."

Gao Jinyang's face was deep and silent, but Zhao Zixiang laughed and said, "No, I can't afford your 'Mr. Zhao'." He always likes to joke, and now he said: "I forgot how Mr. Gao taught me a lesson before. Do you want to do it again?"

Lu Mengxin showed embarrassment, a layer of cold sweat broke out unconsciously on his back, he hung his head and remained silent.

Gao Jinyang also ignored it. At this time, Yan Jiashan had already dismissed all the fans, moved to Gao Jinyang's side, and muttered, "Mr. Gao, let's go."

Gao Jinyang didn't want to delay any longer, nodded in agreement, and led Yan Jiashan away.

An Yuan didn't hear Gao Jinyang's response from the beginning to the end, and seemed a little unwilling, his eyes followed the figures of the two men, and he didn't move for a long time.

Lu Mengxin tugged on his sleeve lightly, and asked again, "Let's go too."

Zhao Zixiang who was on the side suddenly said something, and asked him: "Are you the famous No. [-] entertainment reporter? Lu Mengxin?"

Lu Mengxin turned to look at him, and responded in a low voice, which was an admission.

Zhao Zixiang asked again: "Seeing that you are still capable, are you interested in leaving Shenghui and joining Narada Films?"

The Junlan Film and Television he was talking about was the brokerage company where An Yuan worked. After many years in the industry, Lu Mengxin knew very little about the inside secrets of Junlan Film and Television.

I heard that Zhao Zixiang's grandfather is a major shareholder of Narada Films and Television. He had a serious illness a year ago, and Narada's executives were ready to move. It seems that Zhao Zixiang's return to China this time is not as simple as outsiders think.

He smiled, and politely declined the other party's kindness, "Thank you Mr. Zhao for looking at me, I have no plans to change jobs yet."

Zhao Zixiang showed an unscrupulous smile, and said again: "After talking for a long time, you still care about the way we met for the first time..." He took out a business card from his suit pocket, and inserted it into Lu Mengxin's chest pocket , "Don't reply me in such a hurry, I have plenty of time for you to think about it."

Gao Jinyang led Yan Jiashan away from the party. The driver, Lao Li, had already been waiting in the parking lot for a long time.

When the two got into the car, Gao Jinyang paused, wondering what he was thinking while looking at the scenery outside the window.

When Yan Jiashan came out of the party, his mood was already uncertain, but when he saw that the people on the side didn't say a word, he felt hesitant, and asked flatteringly, "Mr. Gao, what are you thinking?"

Gao Jinyang thought for a moment, and asked him: "That... An Yuan, is he very familiar with you?"

Yan Jiashan's expression froze immediately, and he responded without embarrassment: "Mr. Gao, what are you talking about?"

He was about to explain, but Lao Li, who was driving ahead, suddenly said, "Mr. Gao, there is a car following us all the time."

Gao Jinyang frowned, turned his head and took a look, it was true.

In the night, a black off-road car followed closely behind, maintaining its speed all the way without slowing down.

Yan Jiashan was terrified when he heard this, and asked the people beside him in shock: "Could it be some paparazzi?" Before they went out together in the venue without any scruples, now they are worried about being followed .

Gao Jinyang was calmer than him. After confirming the model, he took out his mobile phone and made a call.

Wen Xianting quickly picked up the phone, "Mr. Gao?"

Gao Jinyang's voice was cold, and he ordered straight to the point: "I'm on my way to Phoenix Mountain, and unfortunately I'm being followed... You find a few people to keep an eye on them, I don't want reports to write scribbles tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

After two sentences, he closed the line.

Yan Jiashan looked nervous, "How is it?"

Gao Jinyang looked at him, "What are you worried about? Don't you have any news? If someone really wanted to follow you, why did you go?"

After hearing this, Yan Jiashan was still uneasy, clenched his fists secretly, and turned his head to look out the window.

Gao Jinyang's car drove out of the city center and approached Phoenix Mountain.

The car behind him was still clinging tightly, and Gao Jinyang saw that Lao Li couldn't get rid of it, so he said in a deep voice, "Take a small path and turn right at the intersection ahead."

Lao Li got the order, said hello, and gradually slowed down, intending to drive towards the trail.

The car behind seemed to know their intentions, and suddenly accelerated the speed, getting closer and closer. Seeing that the two cars were about to meet, Gao Jinyang lowered the window to see the other car clearly, but he didn't want the car to suddenly turn sharply, heavily hit them.

The two cars collided with each other, Gao Jinyang felt a sharp pain all over his body, and someone said anxiously in his ear: "Boss...they are unconscious..."
