Ukiyo · Jingzhe

At this moment, Shen Changmin's heart almost collapsed.

Zuo You led him to the parking lot, opened the car door in a gentlemanly manner, then took out a can of what looked like tea leaves from the plastic bag on the passenger seat and handed it to him, saying: "Lianxin tea, drink it after brewing, it's off the heat."

Before Shen Changmin refused, Zuo You stuffed something into Shen Changmin's arms, and then stuffed Shen Changmin into the co-pilot without any delay.

Shen Changmin was in a daze until Zuo You drove the car out of the parking lot: "Wait a minute, stop."

"What's wrong?" Zuo You didn't stop, but just glanced at him.

Shen Changmin frowned, and said in a low, depressed but non-negotiable tone: "I won't go back to the studio."

Zuo You frowned, leaned the car a little bit to the side of the road, and drove slowly: "Then where do you want to go?"

Shen Changmin looked at the front blankly, unable to answer.

"I'm really worried about you like this. I don't want you to hang around outside. I'll feel more at ease when I go home."

Home?Shen Changmin mocked himself in his heart, that's not called home, it's just a place to live.There was an empty space, no jobs, no clients, no Jung Yunho, it seemed as if he could hear an echo every time he spoke, reminding him that he was alone and he didn't like it there.

But... other places, there is no Zheng Yunhao... He already has a lover, and that person is not him, Shen Changmin.

Shen Changmin ignored him, took out his mobile phone, and called Zheng Yunhao, his tone was rare and serious: "Hey, I have something wrong here, I won't go back today, please take a leave of absence... It's nothing, it's just a toothache." It's... um, ok..."

After hanging up the phone, Shen Changmin still didn't intend to answer Zuo You's question, and Zuo You didn't force him, he turned again and said, "Then accompany me to the General Hospital to get your teeth back, anyway, you'll be fine for a while and you have no place to go." go."

Shen Changmin said "Yes" indifferently.

Zuo You was not a talkative person in the first place, and now that he was driving, he was even more speechless.The two arrived at the main hospital quietly, Zuo You took back Shen Changmin's dentures, and wanted to take him to the staff cafeteria for a meal, but the branch hospital called, saying that a patient had arrived early and asked him to hurry up go back.

Zuo You shouldn't have come out at this time, and it wasn't his responsibility to take out the dentures. It can be said that he came out specially for Shen Changmin.

Shen Changmin shrugged and said nonchalantly, "You should do what you should do, and I should do what you should do."

Hearing this, Zuo You frowned: "Then why are you going?"

Seeing Zuo You's obvious ridicule, Shen Changmin was a little punctured and exasperated: "What should I do, what should I not do, it has nothing to do with you."

"It's my responsibility that your tooth hasn't been healed; you, as the owner of the tooth, are of course also my responsibility." Zuo You's remarks about the tooth are always the same, which sounds very reasonable. Actually inexplicable.

However, Shen Changmin's stimulated brain couldn't react a bit, and he was obviously bluffed: "Don't worry, I won't do anything to my teeth. I won't go anywhere. I can always go home, right?"

Zuo You stared at Shen Changmin, and expressed the intention of coming to pick up the teeth in person today: "The last patient to make an appointment today is at four o'clock in the afternoon, root canal treatment, about an hour, if you can wait, I can work overtime to get your teeth Inlaid." Actually... the more important reason was that Shen Changmin looked very strange, and he really wanted to keep him in his line of sight, just in case.

Shen Changmin lowered his head slightly, looking down at Zuo You, who was exceptionally abnormal today, trying to see something, but the expression of the dead-faced Zuo You was not very vivid today: "Doctor Zuo, you seem to meddle a little too much."

Zuo You still frowned, looked at Shen Changmin without fear for a while, and then said: "Then I will take you home."

"..." Shen Changmin was a little crazy, is their relationship so familiar?So he resolutely refused, "No, I'll go back by myself."

"Will you really go back?" Zuo You continued to ask relentlessly.

"Where else can I go if I don't go back?" Shen Changmin really wanted to swear, if he really had a place to go, would he still come to the dental hospital that he usually avoids?And why is the conversation so wrong now?

"How long is the taxi?"

"15 minutes."

Zuo You nodded, took out a business card from his jacket and handed it to him: "This is my phone number, write me when you get home."

"..." Shen Changmin's heart collapsed for the second time, breaking into pieces.

Zuo You took Shen Changmin to the landing station, and watched him drive away after getting into the taxi. Shen Changmin held the business card and the pot of tea in his hand, feeling an indescribable entanglement in his heart.

When I got home, I threw the things in my hand on the shoe cabinet, took them off as I walked, went to the bathroom, took a cold shower, went straight to the computer, and completely forgot about those two things.

The way to forget a sad thing is to get busy with another more important thing—so Shen Changmin felt that starting to work and finding the author of that article was the solution.He found the author's Weibo, explained his intentions, left his contact information, and began to consider candidates for each role.

This busy work lasted until dark, during which time, Zheng Yunhao called him and asked him where he was, saying that someone had called the studio to confirm whether Shen Changmin had arrived home safely...

Only then did Shen Changmin remember that Zuo You asked him to make a phone call when he got home. He went to the door and took back the two things. After thinking about it, Zheng Yunhao had told Zuo You anyway, so he didn't need to call again, so he casually took the two things back. Zuo You's business card was thrown on the table, anyway, to him, Zuo You was just a dentist.

After dinner, the author sent him a message back.The two had a preliminary exchange of intentions, and found that they were both in the same city, so they scheduled an interview at Ji Yao's studio at ten o'clock tomorrow morning.

The next day, Shen Changmin took his plan to the studio, and after entering the room, he found that Zheng and Jin didn't seem to go home yesterday, because they didn't change their clothes.

When Zheng Yunhao saw him coming, the first thing he did was to ask what happened to the person who called yesterday.

Shen Changmin shrugged, with an indifferent expression on his face: "My dentist, you just treat it... as an after-sales service."

Jung Yunho frowned at Shen Changmin's obvious perfunctory, is there any after-sale service?However, seeing if he doesn't want to say it, he doesn't force it, as long as he isn't a fan of brains.

Shen Changmin didn't want to continue the topic about Zuo You. He said with a serious expression: "I have an appointment with the original author of the novel "Ye Luo Gucheng" at ten o'clock today, and I have to prepare later."

"Are you quick?" Zheng Yunhao raised his eyebrows, but couldn't hide his relief.

Shen Changmin shrugged indifferently: "You're busy with dating, so someone has to be busy with business."

Hearing this, Jin Zaizhong took a tentative look at Shen Changmin and found that he didn't have any special expression, so he was secretly relieved.Although he didn't feel that he had robbed someone else's boyfriend, when he faced Shen Changmin, there was always a lingering sense of guilt.

Several people took advantage of the visitor's arrival to further improve the business plan, and initially drafted the copyright contract. After a while, the visitor came.

Jin Jaejoong got up to open the door, and the moment he opened the door, he froze.

The two people in front of them did not expect to meet again so soon - Kim Junsu and Park Yoochun.

"Is it you?"

"I didn't expect to meet you. I was not sure when your people contacted me yesterday." Jin Junxiu's delicate face showed an innocent smile.

"Haha, if you have Joon Jae, you don't have to worry about anything, right?" Park Yoochun was still full of temper.

Jin Zaizhong smiled: "Come in first."

Zheng Yunhao was obviously taken aback when he saw the two, but soon returned to his usual public relations expression: "I didn't expect to meet again so soon, please sit down."

"Junsu wrote the article?" Kim Jaejoong asked.

"Uh... just writing randomly..." Jin Junxiu was a little embarrassed.

Shen Changmin had no interest in their old friendship at all, so he went straight to the point: "I am very grateful to Mr. Kim Junsu for writing such a story." Shen Changmin handed the folder to Jin Junsu and continued, "This is the contract we drafted, you first take a look."

Jin Junxiu took it with some embarrassment: "I don't know much about the contract. Anyway, I know that Jaejoong will definitely not cheat me. I am very relieved of your studio."

With Jin Zaizhong in this relationship, the negotiation went extremely smoothly.Zheng Yunhao didn't want to lower the copyright fee at first, and he didn't want to appear stingy in front of Park Yoochun, so he gave him a very considerable amount, and promised to visit the set during the filming, and the studio would reimburse him.

Preparations for the early part of the film began quickly, because the original text was not long, and it took only one day for the script to be revised by a professional.Shen Changmin and Zheng Yunhao still found the production team they used to support teaching. In this team, except for the editor who is editing, almost everyone is in place.

It took several days for Shen Changmin and Zheng Yunhao to cast and finalize the date. Because of the previous turmoil, many people kept their distance from them, and it took them a lot of talk to convince the heroine's team to take over.

Speaking of the heroine Yu Yi, it is a textbook in the entertainment industry.Ever since filming an idol drama that became popular, even though she has gained fans, there will always be black fans, but Yu Yi is not afraid, and never gives up on the road of being black, and has become a benchmark for self-improvement.It stands to reason that such a neat person should not be affected by Ji Yao's previous events. She doesn't care, but her team does.After a few days of stalemate, Yu Yi personally replied to the email, and accepted it with a wave of her delicate hand.

During this period, Kim Jaejoong, a person with no connections, seemed to be busier than Zheng Yunhao and Shen Changmin, and he often couldn't see anyone for a whole day. For the first two days, Zheng Yunhao slept directly in the studio, and on the third day he finally couldn't take it anymore. , called Kim Jaejoong after lunch break and dinner, and asked him what was going on.

Jin Jaejoong coaxed a few words with a gentle smile, but before he said a few words, someone was urging him over there, and he hung up the phone in a hurry, leaving Zheng Yunhao here with a depressed face.

As for Ji Yao, who was the focus of everyone's busy work, after a week of retreat, all the songs were finally composed.After he packaged all the original songs, from BGM to theme song, a total of 23 songs and sent them to the later stage, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Ji Yao opened the door and walked to the living room. When he saw the other three people who were busy, he suddenly understood what a team is.Except for Tan Qing, Zheng Yunhao, Kim Jaejoong, and Shen Changmin were almost desperate.They talked about the direction of development, the nature of the studio, and Ji Yao's position, but the only thing they didn't talk about was their salary.They are not optimistic about themselves, and their careers have just started. The three of them do not care about remuneration, relying on an uncertain future to support their dreams.Ji Yao is proud of having such daring colleagues, and at the same time, he finally realized how ridiculous his past was.

Ji Yao didn't bother them, but returned to the house, turned on the computer, clicked on Weibo, and wrote a letter of apology sincerely, reviewing his mistakes, and thanking them who never left.

Ji Yao's knowledge level is limited, and his words and sentences are very vernacular, so soon after he sent them, someone replied, basically divided into three types.

One is people in the industry, who basically know that Ji Yao's public welfare film is about to be broadcast, and think it is a hype;

One is to think that Ji Yao's behavior is an afterthought, and an apology is useful, so why should the police do anything;

The last one is those who are bored and watch the excitement. It doesn't matter if you don't say that you don't forgive me, and you don't pay attention to Ji Yao.

It can be said that there are not many people who are really willing to accept the return of Ji Yao's prodigal son.

Although Ji Yao didn't hear the voice of tolerance, but now he is not in a hurry for these things. He might as well finish a work and speak with actions if he has this time.

He got up and walked to the living room, asking them about the progress of the past few days.

Shen Changmin was the main person in charge of the film, he told him about the current staffing, and when he heard that Yu Yi was invited, he almost suspected that he was hallucinating.

"Yu Yi is a very respectable actor. Although she is not yet 30 years old and the word "respected" is not enough to describe him, he is very dedicated and professional. I think on some levels , your personality is very similar to hers, I hope that through this cooperation, you can not only learn acting knowledge from her, but also how to gain a foothold in this circle in the future." Shen Changmin explained to Ji Yao in this way.

It can be said that Ji Yao and Shen Changmin didn't deal with it at the beginning, but now hearing his long-winded and far-sighted thoughts, Ji Yao was not as impatient as everyone imagined, but just smiled obediently and nodded in agreement.

Zheng Yunhao smiled in relief when he saw this scene: "Just now they called me in the later stage, saying that they have received your soundtrack, and they rushed to work all night, trying to finish it this weekend."

At this time, Tan Qing raised her head from the computer with an unhappy expression on her face: "Ji Yao, who asked you to post that apology letter on your own?"

Ji Yao curled his lips: "Suddenly want to post."

Tan Qing sighed very speechlessly: "Do you know that you are not an individual, you are the protagonist of our studio, and your east direction basically affects the whole body." Tan Qing knew that Ji Yao's this time He was really repenting, and didn't want to scold him too much, "Can we say hello to us in advance next time something like this happens?"

Ji Yao shook his head.

Tan Qing's face darkened immediately, but then Ji Yao smiled and said: "There will be no next time."

The other three people except Ji Yao were taken aback for a moment, and then they all smiled with relief.
