red and white roses together

When "Heze" was about to wrap up, Ji Congxiao went back to the company.He didn't go anywhere, just pushed open the door of Ye Zhuo's office.

"Don't call me before you come, if I'm not here, won't you be in vain?" Ye Zhuo habitually taught him a lesson.After the lesson was over, he realized that the two of them were no longer what they used to be. He coughed lightly and quickly got to the point, "What do you want me to do?"

Ji Congxiao didn't take his words to heart at all, and sat down in the office chair in front of the desk, with his elbows resting on the armrests, his fingers interlocked, his long legs crossed casually, and he looked totally careless.But what he said did not quite fit this image.He said: "The filming of "Heze" is about to be finished, have you selected a new book? Let me take a look? It can be read as a story."

"There are no good books at the moment, and the ones handed over are uneven. The better ones have already found someone else because of the conflict in the schedule of "Heze". You should rest at home first, and I will tell you when there is a suitable one."

When it came to business, Ye Zhuo's previous unease quickly disappeared. He sat behind the desk with a pen in his hand, his expression and movements were the same as usual.Ji Congxiao leaned against the back of the chair and looked at him, feeling that all Jinghuan employees were good actors, from Du Mingjing to Ye Zhuo, even a professional like him couldn't see them Something is wrong.

If it was the former Ji Congxiao, he would probably accept the arrangement Ye Zhuo said without any objection.Although he enjoys filming, it is common for him to take a little rest, not to mention, during the holidays, he may be able to get along with Sheng Huai for a while.However, the current him, after seeing a lot of things, can never go back to the time when he let Ye Zhuo arrange him.

"I remember that Director An and Director Fu have new films to shoot, but they haven't started yet. When I was in Haicheng, I met several directors who wanted to ask me to try a scene. No matter how bad it is, Director Guan has been waiting for me to go back to be his TV series. It’s impossible to be the leading actor…” He deliberately paused, raised his eyes to look at Ye Zhuo, and lowered his voice, “…you don’t even have any invitations for TV dramas, do you?”

His eyes were light, without much emotion.But as soon as Ye Zhuo caught his gaze, his heart tightened suddenly, and he had an inexplicable intuition——Ji Congxiao already knew what he did.

He lowered his eyes, remained silent, and did not speak.

After he came back from Changnan, when he made a choice, he knew that there would be such a day sooner or later.But what can I do?What he wants to bring is the actor, he wants to create a legend, he wants to be talked about by others one day. No one knows!What he wants is definitely not a Ji Congxiao who carries bombs|bows and all kinds of unstable factors!

He knew that he was sorry for Ji Congxiao, but if you don't do it for yourself, heaven and earth will destroy it.What's more, how many of those endorsements, commercials, variety shows, etc., were not found by him for the other party?Take it back now and hand it over to the other good seedlings he fancy, so as to consolidate his position in Jinghuan, why not? !

He had already forgotten that all he did was based on the existence of Ji Congxiao.

Ye Zhuo's silence is enough to explain everything.The slight change of expression on his face did not escape Ji Congxiao's eyes.But Ji Congxiao didn't intend to argue with him any more, the camouflaged arc of his mouth slowly drooped, and the movements of his hands stopped.

"Brother Ye." He called out according to the previous address, Ye Zhuo looked up and saw his serious expression, "I was almost sent to someone else's bed, do you know?"

Ye Zhuo stood up abruptly and looked at him in shock.The office chair crashed down, and the four wheels were still spinning.

A person can camouflage his expression very well, but it is only after he has been prepared, and when he is really shocked, no one can prepare in advance.

He didn't act like a fake.

Ji Congxiao suddenly laughed, and his whole body became light: "We have worked together for so many years, and I am grateful for taking care of you."

He rubbed his wrists, pushed away the chair and stood up, turned around and wanted to go out.

"Cong Xiao!" Ye Zhuo belatedly called out to him, "You want to go?"

Ji Congxiao stopped in his tracks, turned his face to the side without turning his head, and the corners of his lips curled into a sarcasm: "Otherwise? Stay here? I don't know when someone will kill me behind my back."

After saying this, he strode away without looking back.Ye Zhuo had taken care of him for so many years, and at last he let him go. The two of them owed nothing to each other. The friendship of seven or eight years was wiped out and vanished.

……

He put on his sunglasses and walked out of the office.For the first time, I didn't take the elevator, but walked down the safe passage step by step.Until there was a choking smell of smoke and a faint sound coming from the corner downstairs.

Ji Congxiao looked up at the floors, only to realize that he had reached the third floor without knowing it. This was a place specially set up by Jing Huan to train newcomers in various skills.Ji Congxiao was too lazy to meet them face to face, so he wanted to go back to the upper floor and take the elevator down.

However, before he could move, he heard a familiar name appear in the conversation between the two——

"Hey! How was your audition? Did you pass? What did Director Guan say!"

"Don't mention it, I was intercepted, Qiao Yi, you know that right? Mom | 25 old pujie should accept his fate and don't bother, what are you grabbing!"

"Joe... Qiao Yi? Hey, isn't this Ji Congxiao's good friend?! What's the matter, did he help?"

"Bah! Good damn good friend, what a fucking person! Acting! Do you believe that too?" The man sneered and mocked, "What a good friend, why don't you see him give it a shot? As far as the resources in his hand are concerned, let the surname come out a little bit." Qiao's can still swing on the [-]th line?"

"You mean..."

"Being hired by someone, it's being spread now, or do you think he is the only one who can rub Yinyan's red carpet like that? Let me tell you, I saw him get off the luxury car with my own eyes, and it stopped for a long time. I didn’t get out of the car, and I didn’t know what kind of mess I was doing inside—”

He was gossiping secretly, when he accidentally heard a lighter sound, he stopped abruptly, turned his head to look at the source of the sound, and saw that one of the protagonists he had just talked about was leaning on the armrest, holding a gun in his hand. Yan raised his eyebrows: "Go on, why don't you say it?"

The two fell silent immediately, lowered their heads to their chests, and shouted tremblingly: "Brother Ji."

They wished they could slap the self who broke their mouths just now. You must know that Ji Congxiao is notoriously difficult to get along with and play big names. up!

"Jiehu, it's called "Jiehu" when something is almost in hand but someone robs it, but is this role yours?" Ji Congxiao twitched the corners of his lips, exhaled a smoke ring, and walked down slowly, "Guan Daoxuan People, it doesn't matter what your background is, acting skills are the most important thing, understand?"

He took a breath, and smacked the cigarette he had only smoked two or three times on the trash can.Walking straight past the two of them, he sneered and laughed: "The skills are not as good as others, how can you have the face to arrange others?"

The face of the person who spoke just now turned pale.

Ji Congxiao didn't even look at him, strode downstairs, pushed open the security door, pressed the elevator, and sat directly in the underground parking lot.

The door of the sports car closed with a "snap", and his expression suddenly darkened.Quickly picked up the phone and dialed Qiao Yi's number.

"Where are you?"

"...Don't fool me, I know you are in the imperial capital today."

"Are you at home? Don't move, I'll go right away."

Without further ado, he hung up the phone, reversed the car, exited the parking lot, and stepped on the gas pedal to the end.With lightning speed, he arrived at Qiao Yi's downstairs in half an hour.

The sports car had just turned off, and before he took off his seat belt, he saw a Bentley passing by.

His complexion instantly became even uglier.

The place where Qiao Yi lives has not changed much over the years.In an ordinary community, the rent is cheap, and the neighbors are mostly young people from the north, so it is definitely not a place where luxury cars can easily haunt.Of course, it is impossible for him to doubt Qiao Yi because of this, after all, his own car is parked below, maybe it is someone else's friend?

But this can't stop his current aversion to luxury cars.Seeing these cars and hearing these two words reminds people of the strong malice towards Qiao Yi in the choreography in the stairwell.

He knew that something was wrong with Qiao Yi recently, and he wanted to have a good chat with someone as early as in Haicheng.However, he left first, was busy with work, and the other party's various reasons caused the two people to have little contact with each other. Occasionally, as long as Ji Congxiao brought up this topic, Qiao Yi would definitely bring it over. Say nothing.He originally planned to have a good talk with someone after Qiao Yi returned to the imperial capital, but for so long, the news he got was that he was out filming and had no time to come back.However, just because of the lie he answered when he asked where he was today, Ji Congxiao can definitely conclude that he is filming outside!What no time!She was clearly just avoiding him!

When he thought of this, he became furious.He even stood still at the door of Qiao Yi's house for a long time, forced the fire pressure down, and then knocked on the door.

Qiao Yi opened the door for him in home clothes, his brows were still tired, but at least he had recovered a bit, not as thin as before.

The house is not big, and the living room can be seen at a glance from the door.Ji Congxiao glanced at the cups on the coffee table, his eyelids twitched suddenly: "Is there a guest?"

"Already gone." Qiao Yi brought him slippers, closed the door, smiled, and asked as usual, "Why did you come here suddenly? Do you want to eat here at noon?"

Ji Congxiao changed his shoes and stared at him. The two people he met today asked him this question, and these two people were also acting in front of him, whitewashing the peace.But in terms of proficiency, it is obvious that the number of paragraphs translated by Qiao is much higher than that of Ye Zhuo. After all, he is a professional.But in front of Qiao Yi, Ji Congxiao didn't need to make detours, and he didn't need to observe by himself. Whatever he had to say, he was outspoken.Because the person in front of him is his brother for many years.

"Don't you know why I came here?" Ji Congxiao looked into his eyes, before he could answer, he continued on his own, "I heard some rumors, so I came to check with you."

He said verification.

Qiao Yi looked back at him, and his original intention to whitewash the peace was instantly shattered by these two words.His friend refused to listen to the rumors and wanted to check with him personally. He knew that as long as he denied it now, Ji Congxiao would definitely believe it, and he would even stand firmly by his side and criticize all rumors against him.But he also clearly understood that he could no longer give the answer the other party expected.

He turned his eyes away in embarrassment, and tried his best to maintain a steady and indifferent tone: "It's all so clear, what else is there to verify?"

Qiao Yi knew what was rumored from the outside world much earlier than Ji Congxiao.

"What do you mean clearly?! Clearly convey what!" Ji Congxiao stared at him fiercely, trying to suppress his anger, "It's just a luxury car, it's just a pick-up and drop-off, it's just resources, why can't you hand it over to me? My new friend! Why can’t it be your Bole! Why can’t it be your suitor or even your boyfriend! What is clear about things without beginning and end!!”

Qiao Yi broke his fantasy: "Don't lie to yourself, there are no friends, no bole, no suitors and no boyfriend, that's Jin..."

Before he could say the last word, Ji Congxiao punched him hard in the face.

"Shut up the fuck!" Ji Congxiao tugged at his collar, his chest heaving sharply, which was enough to show his current anger.

"Did I treat you badly?! I want to give you resources, connect you, and pull you! You didn't want it yourself! You were so noble back then, why are you willing to degenerate now!"

"Say it again!" The word "Qing Gao" pierced Qiao Yi's whole life, "Say it again! Who is Qing Gao!"

"Am I wrong! You're not Qing Gao——"

The corner of Ji Congxiao's mouth twitched, he staggered and couldn't stop, bumped into the coffee table, and the glass of tea fell down, spilling water all over the floor.

"Anyone can say that! You are the least qualified, you are my friend!" Qiao Yi trembled all over, pointing at him fiercely, "Apologize to me! Now!"

Ji Congxiao wiped the corners of his lips, and licked the fishy sweetness around his lips.He grabbed his wrist violently, pushed his knee against his stomach, threw him on the carpet, and was about to strike at his face: "God damn friend! You don't treat me as a friend at all!"

"Ji Congxiao, your conscience has been eaten by dogs!" Qiao Yi's eyes turned red with anger, "If I hadn't regarded you as a friend, I would have sold my brain because I had a hole in my head, and I wouldn't want to find you!"

Ji Congxiao knelt on him, his hands clenched into fists, he was stunned for a while when he heard this sentence: "What did you say?"

"Get up!" Qiao Yi pushed him away.

"What do you mean, say it again!" Ji Congxiao glared at him.

"You asked me to say it, so I said it? Why?" Qiao Yi didn't even give him a hand. I feel sore all over.

"Can you stop being so childish!" Ji Congxiao rolled his eyes, "Childish ghost!"

"Violent maniac!"

"Wow woof puppy!"

"You are a worm!"

"Aren't you childish!"

"Do you only know this sentence!"

"What's the matter with one sentence?! Just enough!"

"Oh, scumbag!"

"Student bully is amazing? What's the use if you can't win a fight!"

"To shut up!"

"If you tell me to shut up, I will shut up?! Why!"

"Why are you so childish!"

……

After the two had a quarrel like elementary school students without any nutrition, one of them occupied one end of the sofa.Qiao Yi asked Ji Congxiao for a cigarette, and choked after taking a puff.

Ji Congxiao pulled out the cigarette in distaste: "If you don't know how to smoke, then don't smoke, what are you messing about."

Qiao Yi ignored him, looking at the ceiling and recalling the years when he was just out of school.

At that time, he was signed by DK, and he was in the limelight. He and Ji Congxiao were called "Emperor and Shadow Twins". That was the happiest time for him, he could act in his favorite drama, and his good friends supported each other along the way.At that time, he never thought that what awaited him next would be unspoken rules, targeting and snow storage after rejection, and the endless and never-ending cold winter.

Ji Congxiao was really kind to him, but he couldn't see it, so he quietly stuffed him with resources.At first, he was also happy for his friend's help and accepted it gladly.Then after one or two times, he suddenly realized that he was looking forward to the party with Ji Congxiao.Not because of friends, but because as long as the two get together, the other party is likely to have the resources prepared for him.

He still remembers that when he realized this kind of mentality, it was the hot summer season in July and August. In this small house that didn't even have air conditioning at that time, he shivered abruptly in the scorching midday, and his whole body felt cold. , sweating profusely.

From then on, he never dared to ask Ji Congxiao for help again.He is well aware of his passion and pursuit of acting, he dare not put his dream and friendship on the balance, he is afraid that he will not be able to keep his heart, afraid that he will be like a leech, trying to drain Ji Congxiao's bones and blood.

So he justly refused his friend's help, and even had a fight with him when the other party insisted on going his own way, and almost broke up.

"You..." Ji Congxiao didn't expect such an inside story, he wiped his face and looked at Qiao Yi with complicated eyes, "Why didn't you tell me at that time?"

Qiao Yi pulled the corners of his lips, touched the wound, took a deep breath, and answered after a while: "I told you, will you give up helping me?"

Ji Congxiao shook his head, he will move underground, without letting Qiao Yi know.

"Look." Qiao Yi spread out his hands, "There is no impenetrable wall in the world, there will always be a day when I know. At that time, maybe I may pretend not to know, and enjoy your help with peace of mind."

"Don't talk nonsense." Ji Congxiao frowned and glared at him. He didn't like his friend belittling himself like this, "You're not that smart. I've been handing it to you secretly for so many years and you haven't posted—"

The sound stopped abruptly.

Qiao Yi was taken aback for a moment, then his nose turned sour, and he pretended to look at him calmly: "Isn't this coming out?"

Ji Congxiao didn't want to argue with him.Instead, ask about what happened during this time.He understood Qiao Yi, if there were no accidents, he would not allow himself to be covered in mud, and he would not let his hard work and persistence for so many years completely collapse.

Qiao Yi pursed the corners of her lips, lowered her head slowly, and said hoarsely, ""Yu Ran" is being re-planned, but the second male lead is not me."

"What did you say!" Ji Congxiao raised his head abruptly.

"You should know that the male second is DK's quota, right? You told me that."

Ji Congxiao responded, this is the news from Sheng Huai.

"DK intends to use this quota to exchange with other companies for some resources that are not so high in gold content, but are popular and easy to become popular."

Director Li's film praises people, but no matter how popular it is, there is only one.But DK is going downhill, and some time ago, he switched to several popular artists.A role model, even if it is the best actor of the Golden Wutong, it is not as effective as several popular niche students.What's more, this role still falls on Qiao Yi's head. If you don't get into it, it's impossible to not have hatred in your heart after being hidden by DK for so many years?Maybe when the time comes, the first thing to do after soaring into the sky is to terminate the contract.Therefore, instead of making wedding dresses for others, it is better to directly exchange for more suitable resources to support some more obedient and obedient couples.

"I've looked for the higher-ups, I've looked for Director Li, and I've looked for everyone I can, but no one can help me." Qiao Yi smiled wryly, and inserted his fingers into his hair, "Later, he appeared before me. In front of me. I hesitated for a long time, I don't want to go on this road, but I really, really have no choice..."

Ji Congxiao sat beside him, patted his shoulder, but didn't say a word.He is well aware of the importance of "Amber" to Qiao Yi, and he also remembers Qiao Yi's shining eyes when he talked about the future after he was selected, and he did not forget that he waited resolutely and resolutely after Li Dao...

Qiao Yi regards it as the last bargaining chip to stand up, as the redemption to end all his bad luck.This movie carried too much hope and too much obsession for him, how could he give up so easily?

Qiao Yi sniffed, shook his head, and after a while, he pursed his lips and raised his head.

"It's okay." He smiled at Ji Congxiao, and the corner of his mouth hurt.

Ji Congxiao looked at him, hesitant to speak.

Qiao Yi knew what he wanted to ask, and his eyes were slightly dull, but he still spoke: "That man is not bad, and he treats me very well. You don't have to worry."

"But..." Ji Congxiao didn't believe his words, he just thought it was comforting himself.He has heard too many eccentricities in nurturing and unspoken rules, but he has never seen one that is really good. Even if he is well-dressed like Du Mingjing, he is just a scum on the inside.

"No but," Qiao Yi looked at him, "Cong Chong, this is the path I chose. No matter what kind of person he is, I have to accept it. This is a fair deal."

The author has something to say:

Finally finished coding Xiao Qiao. This is the path he chose. As for the future of his relationship line, there is not too much brainstorming, and there will be no extra stories.But Xiao Qiao will have a plot in the later stage!

I've been wondering why I spend more and more time writing a chapter recently, until I just found out... this number of words orz...
