endless city

Such a warm embrace made An Yan's originally sad mood gradually improve.Thinking it was just a simple hug between good buddies, An Yan patted Xu Shaoqian's shoulder politely, then pulled away from each other, and said with a smile: "Shaoqian, I didn't expect you to comfort people."

Xu Shaoqian said indifferently: "I'm just stating the facts."

An Yan: "..."

Xu Shaoqian said again in a low voice: "Film festivals are not like those awards shows where votes are voted for. Each award is selected by senior seniors and professionals in the circle. In order to be fair, the judges We don't know each other, no one will give you an extra point just because you are the second young master of the An family."

An Yan was silent for a while, and suddenly said with a smile: "After talking for a long time, it turned out that they were complimenting me in a roundabout way. Thank you, I will accept everything."

Sure enough, just now it made people feel distressed to death, but in a blink of an eye, it turned into this look that deserves to be beaten.

An Yan smiled and said: "Speaking of which, I have been bullying you since I was a child. You always hid from me when you were young, just like avoiding the plague. Although you didn't say it, you must be cursing me in your heart? It's rare...today You will take the initiative to praise me. I should have recorded what you said just now for my brother."

"..." Xu Shaoqian was silent.

"You seem to have taken a lot of scapegoats for me before. I smashed my grandfather's favorite antiques. I was afraid that he would beat me up, so I planted it on your head, causing you to go home and be beaten up by your fourth uncle. I remember that the jade carving on the antique shelf in my house was sent by your fourth uncle to make amends."

Is this idiot trying to settle old accounts?

If you want to settle old scores, it's really hard to figure it out. An Yan was really bad when he was a child, and Xu Shaoqian suffered a lot from him. At that time, he gritted his teeth and wanted to strangle him to death, but now that he thinks about it, he feels... those experiences, It also became warmer.

——Because, that is the most precious memory that only belongs to them.

Perhaps this is the friendship of the legendary childhood sweetheart?

Whether they hate it or like it, they have experienced so many past events together. They grew up together and watched each other grow from an ignorant little boy to a tall and straight man.Listening to the voice of the other party gradually changing from a tender and soft child to the current hearty or deep voice...

In a blink of an eye, the two had known each other for nearly 20 years.

Worried that continuing to discuss this kind of "warm past" would make him uncontrollably want to kiss him fiercely, Xu Shaoqian calmly looked away, changed the subject and said, "Do you remember Jiang Xuehua?"

An Yan also took back the joke, nodded, and said seriously: "Of course I remember, the first sister who was once recognized in the circle was still my idol in my youth. I have watched every movie of her... By the way, she is not Have you quit the circle to do business a long time ago?"

Xu Shaoqian said: "She returned to China last month. I met her at a friend's birthday party, and she mentioned you specifically. She said that she watched Endless City and admired your performance in the play very much. She also said that if If there is a chance, she wants you to be her leading actor. She knows that I know you well, so let me inquire about your schedule at a convenient time. "

An Yan was surprised and said: "Male lead? She wants to come back?"

Xu Shaoqian nodded: "I want to come back, but this time I'm going to change my job as a director. Recently, I'm preparing a new movie. It's an ancient theme, and it's about the growth of an emperor."

Excitement immediately appeared in An Yan's eyes, "Ancient times? The emperor? I have never acted in a costume drama since my debut! Tell me quickly, which dynasty is it from?"

"It should be an overhead background, an original story. The film is still in the preparation stage, and the list of actors will be confirmed after the Spring Festival. At that time, I will probably ask you to audition." Xu Shaoqian paused, "It's just the start-up funds for this film Not much, unlike the big investment and big production like Endless City, the heroine is a newcomer, even if you go, the salary you will pay will not be too high, you should think about it carefully."

An Yan hurriedly said: "It doesn't matter, the salary doesn't matter, the key is that I am very interested in the subject! I have always wanted to play an emperor, sitting on the dragon chair, and a row of people kneeling below to bow to thank you, it must feel very good."

Speaking of this, An Yan has automatically imagined the image of himself wearing a dragon robe and sitting on a dragon chair being kneeled and worshiped by a group of actors... Tsk tsk, that feeling is really exciting.Zhong Aiqing is flat, so majestic and domineering!

Seeing An Yan's smiling and happy face, it was obvious that he had put all the unhappy things behind him, Xu Shaoqian finally felt relieved.An Yan is like this, sad feelings come and go quickly, and things that want to be forgotten are forgotten as soon as they are said, and they are not procrastinating at all.

Now that his mood has improved, Xu Shaoqian no longer comforted him, took out his mobile phone from his jacket pocket and handed it over, saying, "Your mobile phone, I picked it up on the sofa yesterday."

An Yan hurriedly took it and said: "Fortunately, I didn't lose it. If I lose it, it will be over. I have many private numbers of actors in my address book, so I can't disclose them."

Xu Shaoqian said: "Remember to drink less alcohol in the future."

Hearing this, An Yan suddenly thought of the scene where Xu Shaoqian overwhelmed Xu Shaoqian and had sex with each other after drinking last night, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, with a slight tinge of red in his ears, touched his nose and said, "Cough, I see."

Seeing his embarrassment, Xu Shaoqian stopped talking and changed the subject: "By the way, I have sent some information about residential quarters to your mailbox. Remember to read it when you have time."

An Yan couldn't wait for him to change the subject, so he hurried to the desk to turn on his laptop, and logged into his mailbox to receive new emails.The e-mail listed many detailed introductions of residential areas. An Yan read it and said: "I originally wanted to buy a house next summer, but now it seems that it is better to move out as soon as possible, so as not to be taught by grandpa all day at home..."

"Come and help me take a look, how about this?" An Yan pointed to a promotional poster of a certain community, Xu Shaoqian walked behind him, put his hands on the back of the chair, glanced at the computer screen, frowned and said: "This community is far away from the publicity poster." It's too close to the airport, it's bound to be noisy."

"That's true." An Yan nodded thoughtfully, then pointed to the second one, "What about this one?"

Xu Shaoqian said: "The house here is facing the wrong direction and the light is not good."

An Yan looked at the third one again. Before he could speak this time, Xu Shaoqian took the initiative to criticize: "The space on this balcony is too small. If you grow a few potted flowers, there is no place to stay."

An Yan said: "I like that kind of big balcony. It's better to have floor-to-ceiling windows. You can put a recliner on the balcony. When you're sleepy, you can bask in the sun and sleep at the same time. It will definitely be very comfortable."

Xu Shaoqian suggested: "Then take a look at the following ones. The balcony is large and the room is well lit."

An Yan dragged the mouse to the bottom, looked at the apartment types of several communities and compared them carefully, "Compared to the past, this community is the best, regardless of the geographical location and community planning, it meets my requirements, and more importantly, There is also a swimming pool. And the layout of the house is also very good, the balcony is my favorite... huh? Yuehu Community? Isn't this where you live?"

Xu Shaoqian said calmly, "Yes."

"If I live in the same neighborhood as you, if someone finds out, those reporters will definitely write scribbles again?"

Xu Shaoqian said: "Don't worry about it, the house happens to be together, and we don't go in and out together every day. Moreover, we are usually so busy, and we stay for a few days after filming. It is difficult to meet if we don't make an appointment in advance, right? "

"Well... That's true." An Yan lowered his head and pondered for a moment, "You said that friends you know can get the lowest price, what is the lowest price?"

"[-]% off."

"[-]% off?!" An Yan raised his head in shock, "I thought [-]% off was low enough. If it was [-]% off, it would be almost half cheaper than other communities!"

Xu Shaoqian nodded, "Well, that's true."

At first, An Yan was just a little moved, but now he made up his mind, "This is too good a deal. Quickly, give me your friend's phone number, and I will ask Chang Lin to ask about it some other day."

Seeing An Yan's impatient look, the corners of Xu Shaoqian's mouth couldn't help but raise a vague arc.He took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to him, "This is my friend's business card, just say it was introduced by Mr. Xu."

"Okay, thank you." An Yan immediately took the business card.

"If you need help, call me anytime."

"Okay. I'll ask Xiaochang to inquire first, and I'm going to move after the Spring Festival."

—— Xu Shaoqian won the plan to kidnap An Yan as a neighbor.

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door, followed by An Luo's voice: "An Yan, Shaoqian, come to eat."

An Yan hurriedly got up and said, "My house is about to serve dinner, so why don't you stay for dinner?"

"No, I'm going home for dinner tonight."

An Yan asked suspiciously: "What? Is there any event at your house tonight?"

"Today is Shaobai's birthday."

"Shaobai's birthday?" An Yan was a little surprised. Xu Shaoqian had a cousin named Xu Shaobai. An Yan had only met him a few times when he was a child, and his impression was already very vague. A happy birthday."

"Okay." Xu Shaoqian nodded, turned and walked out.

Just as he walked to the door, he suddenly heard An Yan shout: "By the way, Shaoqian..."

Xu Shaoqian turned his head and met Shang Anyan's rare sincere gaze,

"Thank you...for helping me so much..."

He seemed very embarrassed. When he said this, he blushed and touched his nose, then raised his head again, showing a bright smile to Xu Shaoqian.

Such a smile is like the sunshine after the rain, clear and bright.

Xu Shaoqian's heart suddenly softened.

Thanks for what?What can I thank you for?When you encounter difficulties, when you are sad, to be able to appear by your side at the first time, this is what Xu Shaoqian should and must do most.

——It is a kind of happiness to protect you.
