Tie up to the social fear movie emperor

Fan Xiaoyu felt a chill down his spine, and he suddenly felt that the "old man" in front of him was not as simple as he thought.

But Tan Zhengming seemed to be amused by him. With a half-smile, he picked up the wine glass and shook it, saying, "I'm just joking, I hope I didn't scare you—it's really a joke."

"..."

Fan Xiaoyu no longer took the initiative to speak, and waited quietly for the food to be served. Seeing that steak, lobster, foie gras and so on were all placed in front of him, Fan Xiaoyu had no appetite at all.

What exactly does this man mean... Fan Xiaoyu raised his eyes to see the meaningful but cold smile on his face, and always felt that today's meal was not a good one.

"Today's steak is not bad, just right fat and thin," Tan Zhengming cut the steak on the plate, "It was killed in Kobe this morning, and I arranged for a special plane to bring it over—there's French truffle in the sauce, I hope you don't hate the taste. "

He handed over the cut steak and exchanged it with the plate in front of Fan Xiaoyu.

Fan Xiaoyu's Adam's apple twitched, but she didn't go to get the knife and fork.

"Mr. Tan, what's the matter, you should talk about it now... I have a good appetite, and I can eat anything I hear. You don't have to worry about me."

Tan Zhengming's cold eyes stopped on him for a moment, and then he laughed again:

"Okay, it's my fault. I shouldn't scare the children. Let's talk while eating - if you touch the knife and fork, I'll open your mouth, okay?"

Fan Xiaoyu thought for a while, but there was no other way, so she picked up the knife and fork and ate slowly.

Although he was full of thoughts before taking the first mouthful of food: he won't poison me, he won't poison me! ...

……

Tan Zhengming cut the steak gracefully, with lowered eyelids: "I'm not here today to negotiate a contract with you - you were right in the last meeting, my goal is you, so I should talk to you directly from the beginning .”

All the muscles in Fan Xiaoyu's body stiffened.What do you mean this person?We've only met a few times, so you're going to get to the point so bluntly——

"But I think you may have misunderstood." Tan Zhengming twitched the corners of his mouth and looked up at him. "Although this is not your fault, after all, this circle is not a clean place. Be careful, I am actually very relieved..."

Fan Xiaoyu repeatedly cut the poor piece of steak under the knife, thinking quickly about his purpose.

And in case something happens, his countermeasures.

"Xiaoyu, I hope you won't be so wary of me," Tan Zhengming said, "I went back to China to acquire companies and enter the domestic entertainment industry. All of these are indeed excuses. My real purpose--I can tell you very bluntly: I want to praise you, I want to promote you to the top position in the country, I don’t want to do this, I want to give you all the honors you deserve.”

"!"

Fan Xiaoyu stared at him with wide eyes.The restaurant was eerily quiet, and the fish in the water were wagging their tails leisurely, silently blowing out bubbles in the silent deep blue water.

Fan Xiaoyu's face was clearly reflected by the faint light projected from the water surface, but at this moment, all the blood in his body seemed to gather on the tense shoulder and back muscles.He looked at Tan Zhengming motionlessly, and all the scenes around him gradually lost their color...

"Then," he swallowed the panic in his heart, and asked knowingly, "what is the exchange with this?"

Tan Zhengming looked at him quietly for two seconds, and he didn't know how many times he laughed today, but Fan Xiaoyu felt his hairs standing on end when he looked at his calm and composed face at all times.

"So Xiaoyu, you have misunderstood," he said softly, "I invite you to dinner today to explain it carefully - I don't need you to pay anything for this, and you don't need anything in exchange. I did this purely Because... Xiaoyu, you look a lot like my son."

"what?"

Fan Xiaoyu's eyes suddenly recovered, and all the surrounding scenery seemed to be painted with color again.

Tan Zhengming took out his wallet, opened the photos inside and showed Fan Xiaoyu: "I also accidentally saw a photo of you when you were a child on a variety show, and it looks so much like my son, doesn't it?"

Fan Xiaoyu opened his eyes and looked at it.The photos are a bit yellowish and blurry.The child in the photo is no more than ten years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, smiling happily... It does look a bit like Fan Xiaoyu when she was a child.

But children at that age haven't opened their eyes yet, but everyone with bigger eyes looks similar, right?

"Well……"

"What? Don't I look like someone with a son?" Tan Zhengming put his wallet back with a casual smile in his eyes.

"No, it's just... Mr. Tan, you look very young, you don't seem like someone who can have a son as old as me, right..."

"Well, yes," Tan Zhengming's eyes suddenly dimmed, "He can't grow to your age..."

"!"

Fan Xiaoyu was shocked again.

"He died when he was ten years old, and he got sick...I'm sorry, saying you look like a dead person, will it make you uncomfortable? I'm really sorry—"

"No, no," Fan Xiaoyu hurriedly waved his hands, "I'm not superstitious, it's okay..."

Tan Zhengming ate the steak slowly, looking like he was chewing wax:

"So I came back to look for you this time. I also made a special trip to your crew to see you...Xiao Yu, you know, I have been thinking, if my son can grow up, if he can also become a 20-year-old My boy, what should he look like...how tall can he grow, is he pretty when he smiles...until I saw you, what I felt at that time——Can you understand, Xiaoyu?"

The pain on Tan Zhengming's face didn't seem to be feigned.Fan Xiaoyu felt as if a piece of her heart had been hollowed out.It turned out that what he thought and had been guarding against for so long was the "harassment", the truth is this...

Tan Zhengming smiled wryly: "I know I'm ridiculous, but people sometimes have certain obsessions. What's more, for a person like me, having enough wealth is basically equivalent to having everything you want. But there are some things that you can’t get even if you spend a lot of money, can you understand? For example, family affection, family members, people who have passed away..."

"I can understand," Fan Xiaoyu said immediately, "Sorry, I misunderstood a little earlier, I—"

"I understand," Tan Zhengming said, "whether it is the acquisition of your company or other...in some respects, you are right to be wary of me. So I say I am very relieved that you are at least in this circle. Stand by your principles and have the ability and awareness to protect yourself."

Fan Xiaoyu smiled dryly and said nothing.

Tan Zhengming continued: "I did check a lot of things about you after I got to know you. I heard that you have been in this circle since you were very young, and it was not easy to struggle for so many years. And you actually had a good time as a child. It's very bad, it seems that because of a family accident or something, you ended up wandering outside...Of course I didn't want to pry into your privacy, I was just thinking, since I am also in this line of work, why don't you help me to the best of my ability? Help me? It's not difficult for me, is it? It can also make up for the regret of losing my son..."

Fan Xiaoyu swallowed, but remained silent.

"Xiaoyu, I didn't tell you so much to win your sympathy. I just saw that you never regarded me as your true ally, and you were still wary of me...I wanted to invite you to my house for dinner that day because, I really haven't had a chance to cook for my son in a long time—"

"Mr. Tan," Fan Xiaoyu raised her head suddenly, "I can understand your feelings, and I sincerely sympathize with what happened to your son. But I'm sorry... I don't think I can accept your kindness."
