The stars do not shine [entertainment circle]

Qi Xing paused, looked back, and saw Shengli standing at the door of the small room, waving at her with a smile on his face.

She hurriedly said hello: "Hi brother, long time no see."

"Hello."

Quan Zhilong glanced at Shengli, turned around and said, "Eat dinner?"

"Yes." Qi Xing nodded: "I even made an appointment with friends."

It was too conspicuous to speak while standing in the corridor, Quan Zhilong nodded, and was interrupted by Shengli again: "Is your friend here? Why don't you come over and chat for a while?"

Victory was too enthusiastic, Qi Xing had no choice but to say yes, and was welcomed into the small room by them.

This time there were only members of BB, and Cui Shengxian didn't attend because of business, after sitting down, Qi Xing greeted everyone generously.

She has a good personality, lively and confident. Even if she is not very familiar with the members, she can actively find topics to chat with without embarrassment, and participate in their topics with a smile.

"By the way, Qi Xing, what have you been up to lately?" Shengli said, "I see that your Instagram hasn't been updated for a long time."

Qi Xing joked: "Did you deliberately follow my INS?"

"Yes." Shengli said with a smile, "I watch it every day."

Qi Xing made an exaggerated surprised expression, and then said with a smile: "I've been busy with the decoration of the new store recently, and this is just the beginning."

"A new store?" As soon as business was mentioned, Shengli became interested: "Have you found a store yet? Where is it?"

"In Jiangnan District, the XX subway entrance recently developed by the government, do you know? It's in the next neighborhood."

"I know." Shengli was interested: "As soon as it was planned, it developed very well."

The two started chatting about business, Quan Zhilong and the other members were used to Shengli like this, so they chatted about their own things until Qi Xing's cell phone rang.

Only then did she realize that she even made an appointment with a friend!

After hanging up the phone, Qi Xing was about to stand up and bid farewell, but Quan Zhilong lazily propped his head and waved to her: "Goodbye."

A simple action becomes not easy through Quan Zhilong.

Because he is lazy and doesn't care, he is so charming, it has nothing to do with his appearance, but his own temperament.

Qi Xing walked out, and Shengli wanted to see her off as a matter of course. As soon as he came out, Qi Xing saw a friend on the phone in the corridor, and was about to say to Shengli that he didn't need to send her off, so he heard Shengli say: "Do you know Liu Yanhe too? ?”

Qi Xing was stunned for a moment: "Yes."

Liu Yanhe hung up the phone when he saw Shengli, and walked over: "Brother Shengli?"

"So we all know each other." Shengli smiled: "Do you want us to have dinner together? Yanhe, who else is there?"

"Zaixi is here too."

Qi Xing said in surprise, "Do you all know each other?"

The two nodded at the same time, and patted Liu Yanhe on the shoulder triumphantly: "Go and ask your friends, would you like to be together?"

What Qi Xing didn't expect was that the friends he met this time almost knew Shengli. Although they were not familiar with each other, they had met each other, which was amazing.

A group of people merged together for dinner as a matter of course. They were all extroverts, and the atmosphere soon became lively.

Qi Xing was sitting on the far left, next to Quan Zhilong. The two of them were not chatting at first, but a friend brought up a topic, and Qi Xing naturally blended in. While chatting, he heard Quan Zhilong ask: "You also like to see art exhibitions?"

"Yes." Qi Xing turned to look at him: "It's one of my hobbies."

Because there were a lot of people in the room, even with the air conditioner turned on, it was a little hot, which made Qi Xing's cheeks flush. She was in a good mood today, and she drank a little sake, her eyes were watery, and the distance between the two was very close, so close Quan Zhilong could clearly see her fair and flawless skin and perfect facial features.

But it's not really his type.

Quan Zhilong was in a daze for a moment, and quickly replied: "Why do you like to see art exhibitions?" He took care of Qi Xing very gentlemanly, and conveniently put a kind of sushi that she liked very much in front of her: "You drank a lot of wine just now, eat something."

Qi Xing supported his head and said, "It's the paintings that make me feel calm. I like to appreciate beautiful things." She paused: "Thank you!"

"That's true." Quan Zhilong raised his eyebrows: "I can find a lot of inspiration from paintings, and I can also find peace from paintings."

Qi Xing asked curiously: "Is it true that artists are under a lot of pressure? How do you get rid of those bad things?"

Quan Zhilong glanced at her: "I can't digest it, I hold it in my heart."

Qi Xing wanted to say something, but Shengli suddenly said: "Last time, Qi Xing went to participate in Zhilong's signing." He said: "Are there many idols in Qi Xing's family?"

All eyes at the table, including Quan Zhilong's, focused on Qi Xing alone, she blinked: "What did you say?"

Liu Yanhe continued: "Let's talk about Jin Xi's brother, and then talk about the signatures of idols in the cabinet at your house. There must be more than 100 signatures, right?"

Quan Zhilong looked at her: "Didn't you say you are my fan?"

Qi Xing subconsciously scratched her cheeks with her fingers, she really wanted to say that you had misunderstood, but before she could say anything, Quan Zhilong at the side understood: "It turns out that I like to collect autographs."

He said inexplicably, "Do you want BB's signed album? The one that is out of print?"

Quan Zhilong's mood was calm at this time, but he felt that he really regarded her as a VIP because of being swayed by a little girl.

Others started talking about other things, only Qi Xing, who didn't know why she was a little embarrassed, and because of the shyness that came up, her cheeks became even redder, she lowered her head and said, "Yes."

He also murmured in a low voice: "I still want Aikon's autographed album."

"Oh~ that's it." Quan Zhilong chuckled: "Leave a contact information, and I'll give it to you later?"

Qi Xing's eyes lit up, he nodded happily, and exchanged contact information with Quan Zhilong.

Quan Zhilong is a gentleman in his bones. They eat while chatting. He will carefully observe Qi Xing's eating habits, and then take good care of her.

Qi Xing drank a little too much at night, and felt dizzy with his head propped up, Quan Zhilong said softly, "Call a driver for you?"

Qi Xing nodded, Quan Zhilong ordered Shengli to call the driver, then poured her a glass of water and put it on hand: "Drink some water, and send me a message when you get home."

At this time, Qi Xing was still thinking about paying the bill, so he took out the card from his bag in a daze: "I want to pay the bill."

"I'll do it." Quan Zhilong pressed down her hand, raised his head and asked her female friend to come and take care of her.

After returning home, Qi Xing put Quan Zhilong's advice behind him, washed up and went straight to sleep.

------------

After waking up, Qi Xing suffered from a headache. She turned over and felt that her head was about to split open. She rarely drank alcohol, and once she drank, the after-effects were extremely uncomfortable.

After a while, she picked up her phone and it was only after six o'clock in the morning.

My eyes were a little red, I ordered a hangover soup, and opened the chat software to look at it, most of them were sent by friends.

In the chat box with Quan Zhilong, there is only the verification message when adding friends. Qi Xing thought of Quan Zhilong's care for her last night, so he sent him a message: Thank you brother for the treat.

After sending out, I didn't care, and lay down for a while, and didn't get up until the takeaway was delivered.

Quan Zhilong went directly to work in the company after the dinner party.

He never looked at his phone when he was working, and waited about two hours before picking up his phone to check his unread messages.

When I saw Qi Xing's news, I suddenly remembered her playful smile last night, and gave Qi Xing a nickname in my heart: Playful little liar.

He always thought that Qi Xing was really his fan, and he even came to his concert.

It was the first time in my life that I was so self-indulgent.

He couldn't help laughing again, and messaged Qi Xing: You're welcome.

At this time, the phone rang again, and Jin Minmin's anxious voice sounded: "Sister! Something happened!"

Qi Xing stayed in bed for a long time, just got up to brush his teeth, he was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Don't worry, just speak slowly."

Jin Minwen took a deep breath: "Sister, the store was smashed."

"What did you say?" Qi Xing frowned, "Smashed?"

"Yes." Jin Minwen was so anxious that she was about to cry: "I have already called the police, and went to see the surveillance at the first time, only to find that the surveillance was smashed last night, and nothing after that was captured."

Qi Xing said with a clear mind: "The current situation in the store, you take a photo for me, don't step on it and protect the scene and wait for the police to come, I will deal with it right away."

After hanging up the phone, Qi Xing quickly brushed his teeth and washed his face, grabbed a short sleeve and set off to the store.

When we arrived, two police cars were parked in front of the store, surrounded by many people.

Qi Xing parked his car and walked into the store. The previously renovated storefront was in a mess, all kinds of decorations fell on the ground, almost all the tables were smashed, and even those expensive coffee machines were destroyed. Punched several large holes with a hammer.

With a calm mind, Qi Xing immediately went to the police to explain the situation. One group of policemen was collecting traces and physical evidence, and the other group of policemen was taking notes on the three part-time students.

After Qi Xing said hello politely, the policeman in front of him introduced himself: "I am Han Xiangyu, the squadron leader, and you are the owner of this coffee shop, right?"

"My name is Qi Xing, hello, Team Han." Qi Xing shook hands with the other party: "I'm sorry to trouble you."

"It should." Han Xiangyu began to ask routinely: "Were you in the store last night? Is there anything unusual?"

Qi Xing shook her head: "I wasn't here yesterday, and there seems to be nothing unusual recently." After she finished speaking, she tilted her head: "There is one, but I'm not sure."

"Tell me." Han Xiangyu said, "No matter what the situation is, explain the details clearly."

"There is a person who once appeared outside my store for a week, staring at the store through the big glass. His name is Winnie, and he also runs a coffee shop."

Han Xiangyu wrote down one by one, and then raised his head: "I need you and all the shop assistants to take a record, please cooperate?"

Qi Xing nodded, and Jin Minwen and Song Xiu came over and whispered, "Sister, are you okay?"

Qi Xing sighed: "I'm fine, don't worry."

Jin Minmin said angrily, "Winnie must have done it!"

Qi Xing patted her on the head: "There is no evidence, don't talk nonsense, let the police investigate, you know?"

"I poached people from you before, directly turned the unreleased new product into hers, and even bit back and said that we plagiarized. Just thinking about it makes me feel aggrieved!"

Jin Minmin was very angry: "Now come to make trouble again!"

"Okay." Qi Xing said: "Don't say these things in the transcript later, after all, we have no evidence to prove that she did it, you know? Let's go, take you to the police station."

"The shop?" Song Xiu asked, "What should I do?"

"I'll wait for the contact person to come over and deal with it. Don't worry about it."

Qi Xing was also very annoyed, how could he remain calm when something like this happened?

But she didn't show it, and went to record the transcript with two part-time students.
