King of Chefs

Yanlang received a call from Liantang at around ten fifteen in the evening.

At that time, he was still gaining experience in dim sum, the four ovens were running together, the kitchen was hot, and the air conditioner was not working.But these days, his experience as a Chinese dim sum chef has reached 84%. As long as the dim sum from these four ovens are baked, his pastry chef level can reach the intermediate level.

The speed of the upgrade is much faster than expected.

The room was filled with the scent of snacks. After the man in the white apron wiped his hands slowly, he slowly picked up the phone on the cooking table.

The dim sum basket on the table is already full of dim sum, such as soft and milky sugar-free cookies, wife cakes with a crispy exterior and tender, browned surface, apple pies with a crispy exterior that oozes juice when you bite into them, and thick Fragrant and delicious walnut crisp with endless aftertaste.

The exquisite snacks were wrapped in oil-absorbing paper and placed in a basket. Yan Lang, who had nothing to do, even posed for a pose. If a girl came in at this time, she would jump up happily and couldn't put it down for the snacks.

He picked up his phone and glanced at it. He was a little surprised at Zhou Chu's high efficiency. Zhou Chu had no work, and he must be short of money. He must be impatient to find a new way out.

It's just that he thought the call would come tomorrow.

But since you've already called, let's take it.

"Hello, it's me." Yan Lang picked up the phone, even though his mind was full of thoughts, his tone was very calm.As a film king, he didn't want others to know his emotions, so no one would be able to see it.

"You..." Liantang stopped after uttering a word in a hurry, then he was quiet for a while, as if he was adjusting his emotions, and then said in a hoarse voice, "You are in the capital, why didn't you tell me."

"Well, I can't stay for a few days, and I will go back soon."

"Where are you now? I'll go find you."

When Yan Lang heard what Liantang said, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but it didn't reach those dark and deep eyes.The incandescent lamp above his head was very bright, and the crystal quietly refracted the sharp light, just like his current mood, a pain of betrayal was spreading.

He couldn't understand Liantang from the beginning to the end, including Shi Yang's hurtful behavior in the name of love.

But he was willing to forgive Shi Yang, and the slightest displeasure in his heart was just to increase the fun in bed.There are limited people and things that people can hold in their hearts, so Liantang naturally does not have this kind of treatment.For the betrayers, he was far from being as calm as he said.

"I'm in Yuxuan." Yan Lang gave the answer as he wished.

Then came the expected next sentence.

Liantang said: "Why are you there? I heard from Chu'er that you live in Yuxuan. Did he see Shi Yang? Is it Shi Yang who always troubles you?"

"It's not looking for trouble. I won't talk about the past. Shi Yang and I are on good terms."

"I don't understand, what is your relationship now? Friends? Have you forgotten how he troubled you before?"

Yan Lang found that Liantang mentioned the word "trouble" repeatedly, which was an obvious hint, showing the other party's vigilance and malice towards Shi Yang, which made him very unhappy, and his tone became more serious A few points.

"The actual situation is a bit complicated to explain. In fact, when we get along with him, he is not as complicated as we imagined. It feels more like a child's prank. Although the damage to me is not small, but if you think about it comprehensively, it is not so complicated. unforgivable."

Yan Lang said half-truth, half-false, and gave Liantang some hints by the way, telling him that there was nothing that he couldn't talk about openly and honestly, but it was up to him to decide whether to forgive or not.

Yan Lang's vague but indistinct information made Liantang silent, the phone was quiet for a while, and then Liantang said: "I'll go find you, let's have a late-night snack together, don't you always want to talk to me? Is it something about work? I figured it out, escape and quarrel are not the solution, let's meet and talk about it."

Logically speaking, Yan Lang would not agree to a person who likes him to go out for supper with him in the middle of the night, but this time, he nodded and agreed without any consideration: "Okay, where to eat? I'll go Looking for you?"

"No, I'll go find you." After speaking, Liantang hung up the phone.

Yan Lang stayed in the room for a while, waiting for the snacks in the oven to come out.Yanlang became depressed at once. It turns out that apple pie and cookies are Western-style dim sum, and his experience in Chinese dim sum stopped at 99%.

There was nothing he could do now, he tidied things up, then picked up his phone in a calm manner, opened the door and walked out.

Yuxuan clubhouse is very lively at night, this time is the beginning of urban nightlife.

When he walked through the lobby of the leisure area, he heard a man's hearty laughter, but fortunately there was no woman's coquettish laughter. At a glance, the people in the hall were also neatly dressed, chatting with friends, or Take a deck of poker and play two games.

Every time Yan Lang passed by here, he would silently observe the atmosphere here, and when he confirmed once again that this place was indeed decent, he didn't have so much resistance to Shi Yang's living here.But this is not a good place after all, so we should come here less in the future... I don't know if Shi Yang will stay with me in Hengshi forever, and his career is destined to be in Yulonggou in the future, so it's not beautiful for the two to live apart for a long time , if it is sure that Shi Yang is fine, he should find a way to abduct the person to his side and tie him up, so as not to lose sight of the person for a long time and just think about it.

While thinking, Yan Lang had already walked out of the leisure area, and a long corridor passed through the magnificent courtyard and connected to the dining area in front.

The night wind blew, Yan Lang came back to his senses, and suddenly laughed at himself.

This feeling of worrying about someone's gains and losses is really fresh, even when he and Zihua confirmed their relationship, he didn't have this feeling of constantly thinking about each other.What is this?It wouldn't be like what Kaian said, he wasn't in a relationship at all before, right?Is it just because it fits together?

Yan Lang didn't want to ridicule his previous emotional experience, after all, he used his sincerity, even if he didn't have the urge to yearn wildly, he would still take every relationship very seriously.

It's just... those people are not Shi Yang.

That cute, cunning, cowardly and profane Shi Yang, who makes me worry about every frown and smile.

Inexplicably a little fortunate.

At this age, I found another person who made my heart beat, especially that person liked me to such an extent that I was willing to tie myself to the bed to seduce myself. This feeling of being in love with each other is really great.

Yan Lang didn't think there was anything unacceptable about falling in love with a man.

He used the reason that he was a straight man before, it was just an excuse to reject Shi Yang.But in fact, he has no prejudice against homosexuality. His occupation and personality have determined his broad-mindedness and openness of mind. What's more, he has no pressure from his family. These conditions are enough for him to control his life perfectly.

But is it from hating to not hating, from disliking to liking a person?He calmly accepted his changes, and sincerely enjoyed the arrival of this relationship.

Thinking of the sweet things, the steps on my feet became a little lighter, and the pain of being betrayed that was coming seemed to become insignificant.

It wasn't too long since he knew that Liantang had betrayed him.He is a sentimental person, and he really can't accept this matter, but he can't bear it just because of his disbelief and those old friendships, right?Since the other party squandered the friendship he cherished first, as long as he thinks about it in this way, the pain of betrayal seems to be much less.

When love came, the pain was healed, and his body and mind were nourished, he now believed that he could solve the matter of Liantang very well.

At this time, some parts of the dining area were still lit, especially one near the lawn, where a chef was making a barbecue in the open air, and a table of young guests were chatting while drinking beer in the dark.

Yan Lang chose to pass through the dining area from there. When passing by, the guests at that table seemed to recognize him. One of the girls asked the male companion beside him in a low voice, "Is that person Yan Lang?"

The male partner replied flamboyantly: "It must be, what is this place? Yuxuan Club, there are usually many big stars going in and out. And politicians, are the real secrets."

"If I can come to the Yuxuan Club once, it will be worth it in my life."

"What are you talking about? You are with me. If you want to come later, just open your mouth and I will bring you here."

Yan Lang didn't hear the words behind him. The word "actor" made him sigh. Indeed, the entertainment industry is too flashy, and there is no shortage of newcomers who will do everything for the sake of superiority. The atmosphere of the entire circle has been spoiled. It's normal to look down.

This is also one of the reasons why he doesn't want to stay in the entertainment industry any longer. No matter how high his status is in the entertainment industry, in the eyes of politicians and rich businessmen, he is not much an actor in filming. He lacks foundation and relies on his face to earn money. respect.If he wants to truly stand up, he must have his own career that no one can shake.

The glitz of the entertainment industry, the boredom of standing in high places, his strong interest in cooking, and his desire to have his own career, even if it was to match Shi Yang, all gradually deepened his idea of ​​leaving the entertainment industry.

The road ahead may not be easy, but he firmly believes that he will go on and be better than now.

Walking to the door of Yuxuan, compared to the elegant and quiet inside, the outside looks much more lively.This time is when the night market in the entertainment area is making a lot of money. It is in the building next door. Although some people go in and out directly from the underground parking lot, some people choose to drive directly outside the gate, where tens of millions of luxury cars park. In the parking lot at the gate of the clubhouse, it is not difficult to see what kind of people are coming in and out here.

Yan Lang is not interested in that place. In the early years, in order to win some good roles, or when the director invited him to dinner and entertainment after he became famous, he often went to these places. interest.Instead of having fun in that noisy place, it's better to have a few friends eating barbecue skewers on the side of the road.

The mobile phone in his hand vibrated shortly after Yan Lang arrived at the gate. The simple ringtone was a little scary at night, and Yanlang might have missed the call himself, so the ringtone he chose was a bit loud, so the moment it rang, He was also taken aback.

The night in late autumn was really cold, and goose bumps appeared on my body unconsciously.

Liantang drove in slowly from the gate.

The two looked at each other silently through the windshield.

Yan Lang raised the corner of his mouth to show a smile, and took the initiative to greet him.

Liantang, who opened the car door and came down, looked at him. He was wearing a mid-length thin windbreaker that wrapped around his slender body. Even if he came in a hurry, he dressed himself up a bit. The hair style with his full forehead combed back is the best. proof.

From this point of view, Liantang is indeed a very handsome man. Under the street lamp, he has deep and three-dimensional features, a long and handsome figure.He is very communicative, and is also very good at handling trivial matters. He also has good connections in the entertainment industry. There is a reason why Yan Lang has cooperated with him so far. Liantang can indeed help him a lot.

Looking at Liantang, he seemed to see that work partner who silently followed behind him, shielding himself from fans and strangers.I also saw two drunk men at the celebration banquet after I won the best actor. They put each other's shoulders in the middle of the night and walked on the quiet street with happy smiles on their faces , Saying congratulations to each other foolishly.I even saw the man who was knocked down by the public opinion and was exhausted from running around. Even with a high fever of 39°, he still didn't give up his companion.

Why on earth?

When did the once sincere friendship change its tone?All the memories that make people feel happy are cast a shadow, making people feel so hideous and terrifying?

"Yanlang." Liantang looked at him with complicated eyes, "I kept thinking on the way here, how should I talk to you, in a roundabout way? Or continue to endure? But suddenly I don't want to bear it anymore. Can you tell me why you are here? What is the relationship between you and Shi Yang?"

Yan Lang was a little surprised by Liantang's straight-to-the-point, and the time has not yet come. Now is not a good time to confess, "Are you sure you want to talk here? In the middle of the night, in the middle of the open-air parking lot? How about we go in and chat while eating, On the way I came, I saw that there are skewers sold in the clubhouse, maybe we can drink some beer."

Liantang misinterpreted Yan Lang's procrastination as avoidance, and his expression was ugly: "Don't change the subject, you answer my question just now."

"Are you questioning me? Why are you questioning me?" Yan Lang withdrew the smile on his face, "This is my private matter."

"I'm your manager!"

"It's clearly written in the contract from the very beginning, you can't interfere in my private affairs."

"I also wrote that I have the right to inquire about matters that affect your career."

"As I said, I have half quit the entertainment industry."

"That's also in the entertainment industry!" Liantang clenched his fists, "What do you mean by half-quitting the entertainment industry? Either stay or leave! What are you? Half-toned attitude, what do you want to do? I don't understand Ah! Yanlang, tell me, what are you thinking? You are driving me crazy!"

Compared to Liantang's madness, Yan Lang was much calmer, his angle was just right to see the gate, a car drove in, the headlights flickered over, his eyes narrowed, trying to see the license plate clearly.

Lian Tang was stimulated by Yan Lang's attitude and took several deep breaths, then gritted his teeth and said, "Well, let's say you have half quit the entertainment circle. This is your business, and I have no right to stop you."

"Yes, as long as you understand." Yan Lang said calmly.

Liantang's chest heaved violently twice again, and then he said with restraint: "You didn't call me when you came to the capital, and you still live... Shi Yang's place, I really don't know when you guys are so good. "

"Today."

"What!?" Liantang was stunned, not understanding.

"We confirmed today that we have formally communicated."

Liantang was dumbfounded, his eyes widened, as if he was meeting Yan Lang for the first time, looking at him in surprise.

Yan Lang showed a sweet smile in love: "After we really get along, the impression of him has completely changed. He is really a very cute person, people can't help but like him, treat him well, and hold him in the palm of his hand. open."

"You... dating?" Liantang still maintained that surprised face, his face was blurred by Yan Lang's loving tone, the air became thick, almost suffocating, his heart seemed to be unable to beat, The three simple words he said were extremely difficult.

Yan Lang smiled at him, and continued: "And I promised to let him join the resort. In order to avoid further betrayals, he will be the only partner in the future. This way, he is both a partner and a lover. The resort is like our future home, and it is something to look forward to."

"You think he won't betray you?" Liantang said quietly.
