superficial dialogue

When Xie Baijing was ushered into the office, Ke Cheng was facing the computer, and at the same time was talking with someone wearing a bluetooth headset, his fingers casually stroking the ring on his knuckles.He looked cold, did not speak much, and occasionally expressed a few vague opinions.The entire top floor was used by Ke Cheng alone, and they were the only two sitting opposite each other in the huge office.Xie Baijing didn't disturb, and didn't intend to eavesdrop. He sat across from him, his eyes only fell on a cup of tea on the table in front of him, and he let himself go in silence.

Five minutes later, Ke Cheng took out the Bluetooth headset and threw it away impatiently. Two small things immediately rolled down the table.Xie Baijing bent down to pick it up, put it on the table, and silently pushed it to the opposite side.

"Xie Baijing? You're doing very well," Ke Cheng looked at him now. His bags under the eyes were heavier than last year's. Although his back was straight and his posture was elegant, and Ke's dedicated team of nutritionists helped him recuperate his body, There was still a look of drunkenness concealed by spirit in his eyes.He looked at the increasingly handsome young man in front of him calmly, with a slight smile on his face, "It seems that you live with my brother?"

Xie Baijing frowned imperceptibly.Before he entered the door, he had already remembered a brief meeting between Ke Cheng and him.It was the second day after he had a big fight with Ke Jiang, he was asked to promise to be Ke Jiang's lover, but out of reason, he vaguely put it aside temporarily.But after that, the accident happened again, and he almost really forgot about it, and he didn't even give Ke Cheng a clear answer.He didn't want to be forced to be involved in the quarrel between their wealthy brothers, but judging from the meaning of Ke Cheng's words, Ke Cheng obviously thought that he had already obediently obeyed the order and was obediently completing the task.Xie Baijing's mind was spinning with all kinds of thoughts, and finally said calmly and cautiously: "It's just living together, it's nothing."

Ke Cheng's expression remained unchanged: "Are you sure about your relationship?"

Xie Baijing: "Not yet."

Ke Cheng: "He's really good at playing hard to get. He's used to being praised, and he needs some cold faces to find it fresh. But he will never have a long-term character. You can't keep being cold." His words are standard The leader’s speech mode, the speed of speech is neither urgent nor slow, and there are pauses from time to time, as if observing Xie Baijing’s expression, he paused for a while, and then threw out a bait first, “Director Lu’s film is your reward, you want Cherish it well and learn more from Lin Feng. Lin Feng is not young anymore, after him, I hope you will become our new first brother."

Xie Baijing was slightly taken aback, but he was not delighted.

Ke Cheng seemed to see what he was thinking, and laughed: "I've never been stingy with rewards. You don't think he gave you this play, do you? Then he should be sitting here, not me."

His words were very straightforward, Xie Baijing's expression did not change, and he continued calmly: "Thank you, Mr. Ke."

The two were silent for a few seconds, and Xie Baijing asked again: "Why me?"

Why him?Naturally, it was because, since Ke Jiang returned to China, no men or women around him looked at him, and they only had a soft spot for him.Ke Cheng is not afraid that the young man in front of him really likes his younger brother. What he does not want to see is that Xie Baijing would rather die than surrender like a chaste and strong woman. How should the good show start?

Ke Cheng smiled, and the eyes of the long-standing superior were commanding and arrogant. He followed Ke's father all the year round to make decisions in the business field. At first glance, it was still frightening.His voice was deep, and he stared at him brightly, "Because I am very optimistic about you. You have been given a lot of time, you should hurry up. If you do not do well, the most important thing for new talents is actors."

Xie Baijing nodded silently. Compared with the people around Mr. Ke, his posture was really not respectful, but Ke Cheng appreciated it more and more.What he hates the most is being like his younger brother, who is the most glib and pleasing to the eye, and Xie Baijing seems to suit his taste despite his arrogance.Ke Cheng had an intuition in his heart that this young man was not simple, and his future would not be certain, so when he spoke, he wanted to mention something, but he was not attentive, and he was still condescending.After all, he is the future head of the Ke family, even if the film king Lin Feng is present, he can only serve him tea and water, let alone a young star who has not yet become a celebrity?If Xie Baijing is really lucky, he will fulfill his promise, speaking of which, he is still a noble person who supports him; if not, a small role can do nothing to him, and there will be no loss, it is really a good deal for both sides.

There was a dinner after that, and Xie Baijing was quickly let go.Waiting for Xie to take the elevator downstairs, he didn't go back to the classroom directly, but went to the lounge to drink a small cup of coffee.He looked calm and breezy, but when he picked up the coffee, his tense body slowly relaxed.He doesn't smoke, and when he's thinking, he always needs something to do.The unsweetened bitter liquid slid down his throat, Xie Baijing's eyes were dark, and he couldn't see what he was thinking.

Is it rejection?Or follow the trend?

Xie Baijing was extremely hesitant.If it was him who was two months ago, no, even a month ago, perhaps after careful consideration, he would have temporarily agreed to Ke Cheng. Even if he hesitated, it was because of the risk.Ke Cheng is not a showman like Ke Jiang who can only bluff people. Rumors of him being ruthless and unambiguous have spread throughout Xinrui, and there is no benefit in offending Ke Cheng.What's more, Xie Baijing is really short of money and status. He has seen the warmth and coldness of people for many years, and understands that poverty is something that can eat people.His ideal is not to confine his whole life to that small town and that decadent family. During the two or three years in S city, he can see clearly that it is not easy to cross the class by himself.Therefore, he is greedy for money and profit, and his plan is frank and clear.

But today, the balance in his heart is tilted, but it's not because of interests.

I don't know why, all kinds of Ke Jiang suddenly flashed in my mind.Young master Ke wants the wind to catch the wind and the rain to catch the rain, and he doesn't even imitate the dandyism.On that quiet and soft moonlit night, Ke Jiang raised his chin and said to him with a somewhat contemptuous smile, "Come with me, you sleep with me." He treated him like those who sell flesh and blood, maliciously Harassing and chasing him to school and shouting "I'm not afraid"; coaxing him into a trap drunk, trying to kiss and moles him recklessly; dragging him frantically to the bed even when he was in a state of desperation.

This person is really stubborn and paranoid, he doesn't like to be ignored, he must hold what he wants, and he is keen on the game of robbery, he is really not a good person.The first time Xie Baijing felt frustrated was on him.No matter how resilient a person is, there will be a little flash of resentment: Why can you provoke me at will?Why can you mess up my life without any loss?

But those clips that made him anxious and anxious were scurrying away like a revolving lantern, and what he finally recalled was in the car this morning.Ke Jiang was also the sleepiest person he had ever seen. He drank coffee with his eyes closed while sitting in the car, and spilled it all over the floor with one loose hand.Xie Baijing was sitting in the front seat, and when he heard the noise, he turned his head to look, but the driver had already noticed the strangeness, and quickly handed the tissue back so that Young Master Ke could wipe his clothes temporarily.

Ke Jiang's voice was still full of the confused nasal voice of just waking up, even with the hoarseness of an adult man, there was a different kind of contrast.The tone was not very good, as if he was blaming someone, he said angrily: "Uncle Wang, what happened?"

Xie Baijing: "You made it yourself."

Ke Jiang shifted his target angrily: "Can't you save me some breakfast and let me eat it at home?"

Xie Baijing found it funny.How could the servant be lazy and skip making a breakfast that belonged to Ke Jiang, and even sent several Western-style and Chinese-style breakfasts every day, for fear that the delicate young master would not like it.It was obviously because he was sleepy and woke up late, and he was vying to go to the company together, so he only had breakfast on the way, so he blamed others.Xie Baijing had no intention of arguing, but Ke Jiang in the back seat was silent for two seconds, as if he was completely awake, his scorching eyes burned Xie Baijing's seat, and after a long while, his voice was imperceptibly soft, as if he was complaining to himself: "Drinking this broken water always hurts my stomach."

It was rare for Xie Baijing to answer the question calmly: "Drink the porridge at home next time."

Ke Jiang hummed lazily.

When Xie Baijing himself didn't realize it, the corners of Xie Baijing's lips curled up slightly.

Someone came in from the lounge, Xie Baijing immediately came back to his senses, the visitor greeted him, he agreed lightly, threw the coffee cup into the trash can next to him, and left calmly.

Ke Jiang went out to socialize that night, and it was the same the next day.It was not until the day after tomorrow that the two had the opportunity to have dinner at home.In order to reconcile the tastes of the two, the aunt who was in charge of cooking not only fried steak, made lobster and dessert, but also placed two or three dishes of nondescript stir-fry next to her. She also brought a large bowl of chicken soup with pork belly and wormwood. Eat spaghetti, plus a table of dishes, and seven or eight people are enough to eat.During the meal, Xie Baijing talked very little, but Ke Jiang talked a lot.Ke Jiang doesn't like those boring dining etiquette, and he doesn't have a certain attitude when eating. He eats and plays for a while.Xie Baijing couldn't understand his way of playing with food, but he couldn't say it out loud.

Ke Jiang propped his chin, unconsciously poked the beef with the fork in his hand and asked, "When will you join the group?"

Xie Baijing: "Next month."

"Then you have to go out for a while?" Ke Jiang's tone was a little lonely, and there was a bit of deliberate melancholy in his expression, "Hey, I finally got used to the days when the night is not all night, why are you going out?"

Xie Baijing raised his eyes, just in time to meet the eyes of the man opposite him.He was silent for a few seconds, and when the reluctant gaze slowly dimmed, he suddenly said: "Mr. Ke can go home."

"Ah?" Ke Jiang was taken aback for a moment, and then he was a little dissatisfied, "You want to drive me away, right? What's the point of going home, what bothers me the most is going home."

Seeing that Xie Baijing seemed a little puzzled, Ke Jiang started talking, shook his head and smiled and said: "I don't want to go back, you don't know, I don't deal with my father and brother, my brother is also married, they are parents all day long. The loving son and filial family are happy, so I don't have to go back to join in the fun. Anyway, the entire Ke family looks good from the outside, but in fact only the stone lion at the door is clean, so the old man is just a good person."

Xie Baijing was surprised by Ke Jiang's frankness, and said lightly: "I saw Mr. Ke at the company that day."

This "Mr. Ke" naturally refers to Ke Cheng.Ke Jiang frowned: "Xiao Xie, don't recruit him, do you hear me? That guy has a lot of eyes and a black gut. He's really not a good guy."

Ke Jiang has a gentle temperament and a good temper. He has no enemies, and rarely has too obvious dislike for others.But his resistance to Ke Cheng and Ke's father was on the surface, and he didn't hide it.What Xie Baijing didn't know was that Ke Jiang didn't tell everyone his true heart.Even if the relationship is as close as Xu Li, he only spoke quickly and complained a few words when he was a child, and never said anything again when he was an adult.People outside rumored that the Ke brothers were at odds because of their own eyes.Ke Jiang thought he was no longer a child, and would not disclose those things at home, but he trusted Xie Baijing enough to express his attitude without hesitation.

Xie Baijing was silent and did not speak, but Ke Jiang was in a hurry: "You don't need to greet him when you meet, I will cover you with my brother. Did it get in your ears? Come on, promise me?" Under the dinner table, he kicked Xie Baijing's arm. When he saw the young man nodded, he said in satisfaction, "Besides, he doesn't look as good as me."

Xie Baijing's eyebrows trembled.He continued his meal without mentioning anything about the Ke family.

While recharging his energy and continuing to improve his performance, he was getting ready to deal with Mr. Ke.If he wanted to refuse, he couldn't rush into his office at the top of the building recklessly and say "I don't agree", then he would be gone from S City the next day.But this time, I don't know how Ke Cheng got up. He obviously delayed this matter for several months before, but now he became anxious instead.It seems that he also knows that repeated interviews with Xie Baijing will make him appear to be begging, lose his dominant position, and simply not show up by himself, but one of his personal secretaries, who is also a close confidant, will always meet Xie Baijing unexpectedly .

After all, the person who has followed Ke Cheng for many years is much more stable than Xiao Li. In terms of actions, he is more far-reaching than his boss's domineering.At first, when I ran into Xie Baijing, I just nodded calmly and didn't say anything.Just met a few times like this, he and Xie Baijing were alone in the same elevator, but their eyes were only fixed on the constantly jumping numbers, and they suddenly spoke in a low voice, as if greeting normally: "Mr. Xie is busy recently?"

Xie Bai Jingshun accepted the words: "I'm not free."

The secretary's tone was flat, as if he was talking about an unimportant topic: "Mr. Xie is about to join the team. If he can't stay in the local area for such a long time, he will inevitably forget Mr. Ke's orders. Mr. Ke is no better than Mr. Ke, who is as kind as a woman , I have to give you some small punishment first."

Xie Baijing frowned slightly, his eyes were dark.He doesn't like other people's threats, calmly: "What are you talking about?"

The secretary smiled slightly, and when he reached the floor, he went out with a folder in his hand.

Xie Baijing glanced at his back indifferently, and pressed the door close button of the elevator.In terms of resources, so many contracts have been signed, and the makeup photos of the TV series have been released, even if they are really blocked, there is nothing to stop them.Presumably he was too cautious, if Ke Cheng was in control of the overall situation, how could he put down his body and threaten such a small person like him.

"Om-"

The phone rang suddenly, which seemed abrupt in the quiet space.He took it out, but when he saw the notes on the screen, his brows frowned even tighter.

Xie Baijing's voice tensed into a string: "What's wrong, Mom."
