red and white roses together

Although there was a distance, Ji Congxiao recognized Qiao Yi who was walking last at a glance.In the front, it is not difficult to guess that one is his manager, and the other... is a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes.

What is Qiao Yi doing here?Who is that man?

Ji Congxiao frowned and watched the three of them go up to the second floor and disappeared, only then did he remember to add food.

"What's wrong?" Sheng Huai asked, seeing that his expression was not right.

Ji Congxiao shook his head: "I just saw a friend."

The word "friend" is too cheap in today's society, and you can call anyone a friend with a smile.Ji Congxiao also has many so-called friends, but they are either good friends or casual acquaintances.Qiao Yi is the only one who can be called a true friend.

They were college roommates who initially hated each other.Ji Congxiao couldn't get used to Qiao Yi's innocence, and Qiao Yi couldn't get used to Ji Congxiao's pretense, so there was never a day when the two faced each other.It wasn't until Ji Congxiao fell ill that Qiao Yi didn't know what was wrong, and hurried to the hospital with him on his back in the middle of the night. Then the relationship between the two began to ease, and they gradually became close, and they became good friends who talked about everything. friend.Even after entering the entertainment industry, this relationship has not changed.When Ji Congxiao is happy, the first thing that comes to Ji Congxiao's mind is still Qiao Yi, and Qiao Yi will still be the first to stand up for him after his accident.

However, there are still changes, such as the gradually widening gap between them.

Both of them are high-achieving students in the acting academy, and they are destined to have ups and downs in the entertainment circle.Ji Congxiao debuted as a child star and has never left the industry, while Qiao Yi is a solid newcomer.As early as in college, as one of the protagonists who must appear in the photos posted by Ji Congxiao on Weibo, Qiao Yi has long been labeled as Ji Congxiao's best friend, and has been known by fans and the media.Because of this, he was picked up by DK, an established entertainment company, and entered the entertainment industry ahead of schedule.Relying on a historical drama, she became an instant hit, and her popularity was close to that of Ji Congxiao.During that time, the two were dubbed the "Emperor and Shadow Twins".It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and Ji Congxiao relied on his superb acting skills and Du Mingjing's intentional promotion to sing triumphantly all the way.And Qiao Yi, because he rejected the unspoken rules of the DK executives, was once targeted and even hidden. He didn't have any good resources, so he could only make some bad movies to make ends meet.

Ji Congxiao couldn't see his friend being like this, so he wanted to give him a hand.He handed over many good scripts, and tried to recommend Qiao Yi to familiar directors, but Qiao Yi rejected them all.

Ji Congxiao didn't know why at the time, he just wanted to pull his friends out of the predicament.But Qiao Yi was not only ungrateful, but also asked him to take back all the help.The two had a fight on the spot and broke up unhappy.

Although Qiao Yi apologized later, he still insisted not to let Ji Congxiao interfere in his affairs.Ji Congxiao knew his temperament, and understood that if he insisted on going his own way, the two of them would turn over the boat of friendship, so he never asked Qiao Yi about his work from then on.It's just that they will still pass some unobtrusive opportunities in private, and order Qiao Yi's agent to shut up.

That's why he was so surprised right now.

Qiao Yi doesn't like socializing, especially the suggestive entertainment in the entertainment industry, and hidden rules are the bottom line that he can't touch.And just now, although Ji Congxiao didn't know if their dinner party brought something that you and I knew well, at least he knew it wasn't a gathering of friends.Qiao Yi's manager's praise and hospitality for the middle-aged man were too obvious, and Qiao Yi... didn't seem so willing...

Ji Congxiao frowned fiercely. He really wanted to go directly to the second floor to ask for clarification, but he was also worried that his impulsiveness might have missed Qiao Yi's matter. Under all kinds of entanglements, he could only vent his anger with food.

"Cong Xiao?"

A faint voice came from the opposite side, like a basin of normal temperature cold water poured on his head, pulling his sanity back to half.As soon as he raised his eyes, he saw the obvious concern and inquiry in Sheng Huai's eyes.

He shook his head again, finding an excuse to get by.

You can't tell Sheng Huaiming about these things, even if this person looks really upright, but after all, he has only known each other for a few days and knows people and faces.The so-called trust is not so easy.He can associate with Sheng Huai without any scruples, but he can't risk Qiao Yi.

The first time I avoided the important ones, and the second time I was perfunctory.Sheng Huai is not stupid, he understands that there are some things that are inconvenient for him to know.He didn't ask much at the moment, just continued to enjoy the food on the table, and appropriately reduced the topic of chatting.It not only properly ensured the harmony of the atmosphere, but also left enough room for Ji Congxiao to think.

Although Ji Congxiao was in a trance for a moment just now, he was only concerned and confused.Now that he has some calculations in his mind, he naturally returned to his previous attitude, and chatted with Sheng Huai.After a meal, the host and guest are suitable.

After drinking the last cup of herbal tea for digestion, Sheng Huai took the initiative to get up and bid farewell to Ji Congxiao.

"I still have something to do, so I have to go first. If you're okay, you can take a rest. The herbal tea here is good."

After finishing speaking, he ordered another pot of herbal tea for Ji Congxiao, and after thinking about it, he packed a Zhemei Yanbei.

Ji Congxiao didn't understand until after he left, what's wrong?Who doesn't forget to pack desserts?

This person probably saw through everything, including his absent-mindedness and frequent glances at the second floor, but he didn't ask a word, and stood firmly outside the boundaries he drew, even knowing that he wanted to stay. When he left, he took the initiative to leave, not forgetting to find an appropriate reason for him.

Ji Congxiao leaned on the back of the chair and frowned.

This is the thoughtfulness and tenderness unique to Sheng Huai.No wonder even someone as picky as Du Mingjing was fascinated by it.It's just... It seems that my host has failed in his duty again?

Ji Congxiao sighed, pondered for a while, and called the waiter.I ordered a plate of Zhe Mei Yan Bei and had it delivered to Tiansong the next day.

And he himself was lost in thought while holding the teacup.I plan to wait for Joe to translate it here.

He had already figured it out just now, the twelfth floor was just a simple restaurant and did not do other business, if Qiao Yi really had something for this dinner, then he would have to go out of the twelfth floor first.So, he just sat here and waited for someone to come out.

……

Qiao Yi washed his face in the bathroom, regained consciousness a little, and then followed the footsteps of the first two and went downstairs.

The three of them stood together in front of the door on the twelfth floor and waited for the driver to come over. The manager glanced at Qiao Yi and pointedly said to the director: "Xiao Qiao is not good at drinking, and I have to trouble Huang Dong to send him off later." A ride?"

"Little Qiao..." Huang Dong's eyes lit up immediately.Turning around and getting close to Qiao Yi, she stretched out her hand and wanted to put it on his shoulder.

"It's not as serious as what Brother Liu said? You still have enough alcohol, so don't bother Huang Dong." Qiao Yi avoided it calmly, with a smile on his face, but his heart sank.This Huang Dong is a director of DK, and he is a rare person who can handle serious business. Although it is good to have unspoken rules, he pays attention to your wishes and wishes, which is why he will agree today, or take the initiative to save this dinner.But unexpectedly, the manager couldn't wait to send him out.

"How can it be trouble? It just happened to be on the way, no trouble." Huang Dong likes young and beautiful boys, but Qiao Yi's aloof and indifferent but compelled to be kind to him also made his heart tremble. It is inevitable that I cannot control it.Immediately wanted to get closer, but...

"Little Joe?"

The voice came into my ears, and a bright and wanton young man came from behind.He took off his sunglasses, revealing a pair of peach blossom eyes with a smile, which made Huang Dong's heart itch.

But you can only take a look.

Ji Congxiao is not from DK, he can't control it.What's more, this person is really difficult to deal with. He still remembers that an investor touched Ji Congxiao's hand once a few years ago, and he didn't do anything else, or he beat him severely before he could do it. After a meal.

The investor was upset, and asked Du Mingjing for an explanation, demanding that Ji Congxiao be handed over to let him relieve his anger, but Du Mingjing was not a good person, so he was blocked outside the door without seeing him.

And after Ji Congxiao heard about this, he feared that the world would not be chaotic, so he directly exposed the matter on Weibo. Although he didn't name his name and the outsiders didn't know about it, there were almost no secrets in the circle, and investors had no face. It fell clean, but Ji Congxiao had no choice but to swallow his anger.

Ji Congxiao swept across the other two present, raised his hand and put his elbow on Qiao Yi's shoulder, then turned to ask him, "Exactly, I haven't given me the things I asked you to bring last time, I'll go to your house to get them later? Are you done yet?"

Although he said this to Qiao Yi, his eyes were on the other two.

After Huang Dongjing's encounter with him, and the night wind blowing, he sobered up a lot, and immediately replied: "It's over, I'm worried that Xiao Qiao can't drink well, since I have a good friend here, then I'll be lazy .”

"Then I'll take Xiao Qiao away, and you two should be careful on the road." Ji Congxiao smiled at the two of them, and pulled Qiao Yi into the car parked on the side of the road.

As soon as the car door was closed, the smile on Ji Congxiao's face disappeared.As soon as the accelerator was stepped on, the sports car drove out at high speed.There was silence in the car, no one spoke.

Qiao Yi didn't want to speak because he was suffering from drunkenness.There was no need to pretend anything in front of Ji Congxiao, he immediately unbuttoned his neckline and leaned against the car window to rest.

As for Ji Congxiao, he suppressed his anger, for fear that if he was careless, if he got angry, he would even hit the car.

The low pressure drove all the way to Qiao Yi's downstairs. The moment he stopped, Qiao Yi opened his eyes and yawned with a tired face: "Today's incident was an accident."

It's fine if he doesn't speak, but Ji Congxiao's stomach is full of fire when he speaks.

"Accident?! This is not the first time you have encountered such a thing. Don't you know the way that person looked at you? He went to the dinner party knowing that he had plans for you?! There is nothing wrong now, and a word of accident can reveal it. If something really happened, can you still understate it so lightly?!"

"What can happen? A big man, I'm afraid that he will use force..." Qiao Yi replied, but Ji Congxiao gambled him back before he could say the last word.

"Qiao Yi!" Ji Congxiao frowned fiercely, and said seriously, "You have seen more filth in this circle than I have. You don't have to do anything, and you don't know how easy it is to knock down a man!"

"What are you thinking? Do you think that I, Qiao Yi, will become a first-rate person who relies on unspoken rules to obtain resources?" Qiao Yi sat up straight, with cold eyes, "Ji Congxiao, I apologize!"

Ji Congxiao was startled, and then the whole person quieted down, the corners of his mouth slightly tugged, his eyes were full of ridicule, his voice was soft but extremely mocking: "Who do you think I am? Who do you think you are? Let them die?!"

"My mother waited downstairs for two or three hours. I didn't dare to call you for fear of ruining your business, and I didn't dare to move around for fear that you would be taken away by them if you were careless! Replace it with someone else. Do you think I can take a look at them?! It's just because you, Qiao Yi, are my only good friend!"

"Who are you, I know very well. I also understand where your bottom line is! Today, I don't have the slightest misunderstanding of you. I am just worried that you will step on the tip of the knife. You accidentally hurt yourself."

"But! Xiao Qiao, have you noticed? You are too sensitive today, and there is a guilty conscience in your rebuttal."

Quiet in the car.

Qiao Yi turned away, staring at his own reflection on the car window in a daze.Ji Congxiao lifted the veil that he had been covering his eyes.In the final analysis, today's dinner was nothing more than relying on Huang Dong's intentions against him, using himself as a lure to invite others to take the bait.It's just that after taking the bait, he took a business-like attitude and blocked the other's love and I would like to go back.

It's true that even if you become a female cousin, you have to set up a chastity archway.

He raised his hands to cover his eyes.Pull out a laugh.

"Isn't it funny? You still think you're clean, but in fact you've already been very unbearable."

"What is this? This is called the rational use of resources." Ji Congxiao looked up at the roof of the car, "You don't have to tell me this, you know, even if you kill people and set fires, I can help you destroy the corpses and wipe out the traces .You need to go through the test in your own heart, it's not a big deal, it's nothing more than normal."

He raised his hand and patted Qiao Yi's hair.

"Go back and take a shower, and you'll be clean again."

"Fuck off. Take your paw away." Qiao Yi was amused by him.

"There will be such things in the future. If you still want to go, tell me in advance. If something really goes wrong, I will go there in time." Ji Congxiao warned.

"Understood." Qiao Yi responded, and started chatting as usual, "I went there today for the audition of "Mute". This person has connections and can get the qualification for the audition."

"Amber" is a film Director Li is preparing for, and Ji Congxiao heard the name at Mr. Du's birthday party.If Qiao Yi can really get the role of Director Li, then all these years of cold storage should come to an end.What he lacked was never strength, but opportunity.

"I know that the lead actor in this show has been booked, but I don't know about the others. I'll ask you when I get back."

Qiao Yi didn't refuse. Although he didn't want Ji Congxiao to give him resources to match him up, he shouldn't be polite about such trivial matters as asking for news.

"So why do so many people have such bad eyesight? Our Chongchong family is clearly the best friend in the world." Qiao Yi said with emotion.Although Ji Congxiao definitely has a lot of friends on the surface, in fact, there are not many who can make friends.When I was in college, even though I had such a high profile, I still had a few good friends, and this guy was sick and hospitalized, as long as he didn't take the initiative to release the news, no one would come to him, let alone visit him.

Ji Congxiao smiled, but did not speak.After Qiao Yi got out of the car, he took out a cigarette and lit one.

If you want someone else's sincerity, you have to exchange it with your own.But he has never been the one to take the initiative to open up his heart, not to mention the sincerity, even the whole person is full of false lies, so who will treat him sincerely?

He is already this old, so it's better not to play the game of finding friends as a child.Adults should play like adults, and the exchange of interests is the most concise and clear way.

Ji Congxiao turned off his cigarette, turned on the ignition, and was about to go home when his phone vibrated suddenly.Taking advantage of the red light, he fished it out to have a look——

[Sheng Huai: No. 39 Gaoshi Road, Du Mingjing is also there.come? 】
