I collided with my opponent [entertainment circle]

When Sheng Xingran was considering the new script, he had already met Mr. Cao.

While discussing the script in depth, he also mentioned Lin Xu, who had worked closely with Mr. Cao, from time to time.

Mr. Cao doesn't care much about the gossip in the circle, and when it comes to the so-called "opponent", he just thinks that everyone depends on their own abilities, and no one can really block someone's way by just putting on airs, so he is very unimpressed.

He admired Lin Xu very much, so he also talked about the experience of the last movie he collaborated with Lin Xu, and he also talked about Lin Xu's situation he knew.

Although it was very vague and not specific, Lin Xu and his parents did not seem to be in harmony. Sheng Xingran felt very impacted by the fact that he lived alone since he was 12 years old.

"Lin Xu didn't specifically mention his own affairs, but Mo Dao said something when he was analyzing the background of the script. When I read the script later, I could feel that Lin Xu had abnormal emotions towards the words 'family' and 'mother'. Teacher Cao said, "But when it came to the actual filming, he didn't show any personal emotions, he spoke and acted completely as a character. Lin Xu, he is one of the rare people I have seen who can completely control his emotions." people."

This is probably the reason why Lin Xu would help raise the cubs, and gave Sheng Xingran the care and care that Sheng Xingran felt was too delicate, and sometimes even surprised Sheng Xingran that Lin Xu could understand children's psychology so deeply?

So Sheng Xingran actually didn't really want to talk about Zai Zai's mother with Lin Xu, and didn't want to affect Lin Xu's emotions.

But Zai Zai will also grow up, and he has to face his native family and destiny by himself.In any case, the two of them and Zai Zai are now a community of destiny to some extent, so it is absolutely necessary to deal with the three of them frankly with each other.

Lin Xu came out of the kitchen, looked at Sheng Xingran who was still sitting in front of the dining table and said in a low voice: "There are too many unhappy things in the family, and there are too many children without parents' care. You don't have to get too immersed in it." , at least, Zai Zai has you now."

"There's you too." Sheng Xingran raised his head and looked at Lin Xu with deep eyes.

Lin Xu didn't continue this topic, he walked to the sideboard: "Do you drink mineral water or tea?"

"I want to drink coffee." Sheng Xingran stood up, squeezed to the sideboard, and looked at Lin Xu's neatly placed coffee beans and coffee machine, "I thought the coffee you made was very delicious when I was camping. I want to drink again."

Lin Xu nodded, picked up the jar of coffee beans, and asked worriedly, "Are you susceptible to coffee?"

I have already had dinner, if Sheng Xingran drank coffee and affected his sleep, it would not be too good.

Sheng Xingran was very casual: "It's okay. I was going to bed late."

Lin Xu: "Okay, then choose a bean that is well balanced between acidity and bitterness, has a fresh aftertaste, and can make you happy."

Sheng Xingran softly defended his dignity: "I'm already a mature adult, I can handle my emotions by myself."

Sheng Xingran felt that it was inappropriate for Lin Xu to comfort him when it was supposed to affect Lin Xu's emotions.

Lin Xu put the coffee beans into the grinder of the automatic coffee machine, and the machine started to work.He handled the coffee powder: "Okay, but if you feel that you need to adjust your emotions, you can talk to me or Zai Zai."

Sheng Xingran said in a low voice: "That's not true, you and I, and us and Zai Zai, we are related, we watch and help each other, and support each other."

"Sheng Xingran." Lin Xu turned slightly to look at Sheng Xingran who was still huddled with him in front of the sideboard as if waiting for coffee, "How can I be related to you? Have you ever studied biology?"

"Psychological kinship doesn't count?" Sheng Xingran defended his conclusion as a matter of course.

Lin Xu was startled, then laughed.The melancholy that shrouded Sheng Xingran that made Sheng Xingran feel uncomfortable at first disappeared without a trace with his pretty smile.

Sheng Xingran took the coffee, and unceremoniously walked towards the sofa in the living room: "Father Xu Xu, let's talk about the script again?"

Lin Xu watched Sheng Xingran sit down on the sofa naturally and freely, and even put a pillow behind his waist, he couldn't help but bend the corners of his mouth again.

Except for Zai Zai and Ye Qinqin, his family has never had any guests.

Ye Qinqin knows that he likes to be quiet, so apart from sending him scripts and contracts, he basically won't show up here.Zai Zai will come to stay for two days and one night in a week or two, and that is when Lin Xu's house is the busiest.

But at the moment Sheng Xingran was nestled on the sofa, and there was one more person in the living room, Lin Xu didn't feel disturbed, and even felt that it seemed good.

Probably, as Sheng Xingran said, some naturally accept it due to "kinship".

Although he has never cared about the so-called "opponent", nor has he ever looked at Sheng Xingran with colored glasses, but the influence of public opinion and gold on people's mentality must exist, no matter how subtle it is, and if it is not noticed by the person involved, Unable to resist, in Lin Xu's heart, he drew a distance and barrier for the word "Sheng Xingran".

Presumably the word "Lin Xu" is the same for Sheng Xingran.

Because of this, when he realized that he was unknowingly shaken by Sheng Xingran's flirtatiousness, Lin Xu would feel even more irritable and wanted to stay away.

But now, Lin Xu has gradually discovered that besides the charm and tension of gender, appearance, and temperament, Sheng Xingran possesses the charm of Sheng Xingran's personality, ability, mentality, and character.

He began to not resist and Sheng Xingran was able to form a deeper communication than others to a certain extent, and a stronger trusting relationship.

For example, "friends".

After making himself a cup of coffee, Lin Xu sat down beside Sheng Xingran, reached out his hand to Sheng Xingran, and made a handshake gesture.

Sheng Xingran gave him a puzzled look: "What?"

"The ridicule of 'the opposite family' is as of today." Lin Xu looked at Sheng Xingran, although his eyes were always indifferent, but very frank, "I will formally regard you as a friend in the future."

He smiled again, "The friend who shook my hand last time is called Zai Zai."

After being startled for a moment, Sheng Xingran stretched out his hand and held Lin Xu's hand tightly.

Body temperature fusion, then exchange.It's like formally forming a contractual relationship.

Lin Xu smiled.

Sheng Xingran looked at the hands of the two people who were holding each other without any gap, but his eyes darkened little by little.

He didn't have the consciousness to withdraw his hand naturally after the handshake was completed, but he felt a slight electric current in Lin Xu's palm, which was transmitted along the palm of his hand to his heart, stabbing a calm but undeniable palpitation.

Lin Xu's cell phone suddenly rang.

The clasped hands were instantly released.Lin Xu bent over and took his mobile phone from the side cabinet beside the sofa where Sheng Xingran was sitting.

Sheng Xing Rangui raised his hand by accident, and wrapped his arms around Lin Xu's waist.

Lin Xu was taken aback, only feeling that he was too aware of Sheng Xingran's damnedness, as if he hadn't been completely desensitized by the establishment of a "friend" relationship.

Sheng Xingran put more strength on his hand, and followed Lin Xu's straightening motion to support him, allowing him to use his strength to easily get the phone and stand up again.

Lin Xuxin unconsciously clicked the answer button: "Hi, I'm Lin Xu."

Yang Wenxuan's half angry and half coquettish voice sounded in the space: "You didn't save my phone number?"

Lin Xu subconsciously glanced at Sheng Xingran, and Sheng Xingran took up the coffee cup with a blank expression of "what do you think I'm doing?"

Lin Xu walked to the balcony, and the full-length floor-to-ceiling glass separated Sheng Xingran and him into two spaces.

"Sister Xuan, are you drinking again?"

"Just a little bit." Even though she said so, Yang Wenxuan was probably drunk, and babbled a lot about her own discomfort and suffering.

Lin Xu listened patiently.

He and Yang Wenxuan have known each other for a long time, and the first film he entered the circle was to cooperate with Yang Wenxuan.

At that time, Yang Wenxuan was the heroine, and it was a drama with a leading heroine. Lin Xu's initial role was only three lines, but Yang Wenxuan saw his potential, and went to compete with the screenwriter and director, and finally gave him the role for the first time. male three.

That was the first time Lin Xu was seen.Afterwards, he emitted his own light.

He also got very close to Yang Wenxuan for a time, feeling that he had a very trustworthy older sister.It's just that Yang Wenxuan showed her liking for Lin Xu more than friends, whether true or false, and the scandal between the two began to spread.

When Yang Wenxuan mentioned the scandal seemingly unintentionally, Lin Xu looked at Yang Wenxuan calmly and said "sorry" seriously.

"Sister Xuan, it's not you who are bad, it's me. My orientation is gay."

Afterwards, he and Yang Wenxuan naturally distanced themselves.But for Yang Wenxuan, Lin Xu is always grateful for the kindness of knowing him, so when Yang Wenxuan is drunk and wants to find someone to talk to, and when she releases the black and gray depression in her heart, Lin Xu is always the first choice.

Sheng Xingran silently looked at Lin Xu who was facing away from him through the floor-to-ceiling glass.

Lin Xu held the mobile phone in his right hand and pressed it to his ear, listening silently and quietly.The left hand resting on the railing tapped lightly on the railing unconsciously, as if hitting a piano key.

It seemed to be knocking on Sheng Xingran's heart.

Staring at the beautiful curve of Lin Xu's back neck, Sheng Xingran's admiration for Lin Xu's beautiful back was intertwined with the surprise of Lin Xu's close relationship with Yang Wenxuan, and it swelled and oppressed heart.

Sheng Xingran didn't know what was swelling in his heart.Glancing at Lin Xushu's back again, he turned around sullenly, leaned on the armrest of the sofa, and stared blankly.

Finally Yang Wenxuan hung up the phone, Lin Xu turned around and looked towards the living room.

Sheng Xingran quietly turned his back to him, motionless, probably deep in thinking about the script.

Approaching Sheng Xingran, Lin Xu was about to call him, but found that he was already asleep.

It's just that Sheng Xingran didn't seem to be sleeping peacefully, his brows were tightly frowned, as if fighting against something in a dream.

Lin Xu slowly raised his hand, and his fingers drew a virtual line in the air.

That line extends from Sheng Xingran's chin to his lips, then along the straight bridge of his nose, strokes his eyes, and finally reaches the center of his frowning brows.

Falling down, he smoothed out the tight wrinkles for Sheng Xingran.

The brows are relaxed, and Sheng Xingran's sleeping face becomes a pleasing painting. The slightly curved lips under the straight bridge of the nose seem to have a natural smile, handsome and warm.

Taking out his phone and turning on the camera, Lin Xu took a serious photo of Zhang Shengxing's sleeping face.

Send it to Zai Zai's children's watch.
