You're not planning to open at all, are you?

For the next ten days, Bai Jiu and Ji Jiang stayed in City J all the time, wandering around, sneaking back to the high school campus when there was no one there, walking from the playground to the basketball hall, and visiting the cafeteria.

Even the stores they frequented took the opportunity to visit. Fortunately, after the third year of junior high, many stores began to open one after another, and the two of them also had the opportunity to relive the taste of high school.

On the fifteenth day of the new year, Bai Jiu and Ji Jiang were about to leave, and having their last meal at home, Bai Jiu called Wu Qiulian into the house.

Mao Haohao also came in, and he waved his little hand, signaling for Bai Jiu to hug him.

During this period of time, he liked this brother very much. Every time he saw Bai Jiu, he wanted to kiss or hug him.

Bai Jiu was a little uncomfortable at first, but he gradually got used to it. The posture of holding the child became more and more proficient, and he was even able to pick him up and run with one hand.

Wu Qiulian was obviously reluctant to part with him: "Xiao Jiu, are you leaving tomorrow? Can't you stay for two more days?"

Bai Jiu shook his head: "School will start in two days, and there are still some things that need to be dealt with. I really have to go."

Wu Qiulian could only nod her head: "Okay, then you guys...be careful on the road."

"By the way," Bai Jiu took out a bank card from his pocket, "This is for you, and the password is your birthday."

Wu Qiulian was startled, and hurriedly pushed his hand back: "No, no, how can I still ask for your money?"

"When you were in college, your mother didn't give you any money, and it was not easy for you to make money. Mom is living a good life now, and there is no shortage of money. You can take it back and spend it yourself."

Bai Jiu smiled: "Although I am not well-known in the past two years, I have earned some money. You can keep this card. If there is any emergency, you can use it as a backup. If you still need... feel free to contact me."

"Later..." Bai Jiu thought for a while, and then said, "I bought a house in City A, and you all can come and live here."

Wu Qiulian's eyes were red again, and she choked up for a while before she said, "Xiao Jiu, it's really not easy for you to make it this far, you are my mother's pride."

Bai Jiu hugged Wu Qiulian with a smile, and asked her again: "Have you had a regular physical examination?"

"Physical examination, physical examination," Wu Qiulian said hastily, "Listen to you, physical examination every year, mom is in good health, there is nothing wrong with it."

Bai Jiu couldn't help laughing: "Okay, health is the most important thing. In the future...the time I can come back will be less and less, you have to take care of yourself."

Wu Xiulian nodded: "You too, you must take care of yourself, Mom has no other thoughts, I don't ask you to be rich, as long as you can be happy."

"I will."

Bai Jiu was about to go out, Wu Qiulian looked at his back, suddenly seemed unable to bear it, and said, "Xiao Jiu, I want to ask you one more thing."

She seemed to have wanted to ask for a long time, but she didn't open her mouth until Bai Jiu was about to leave.

Bai Jiu paused and looked back at her: "What?"

"You and Ji Jiang... are you really just classmates?"

Bai Jiu froze instantly, his eyes widened suddenly, looking at Wu Qiulian with a somewhat bewildered expression.

Seeing his expression, Wu Qiulian understood everything. She first sighed, and then slowly said: "It stands to reason...Mom has nothing to interfere with you, this is your choice."

"Mom didn't take the lead, she couldn't form a family, and she didn't have the right to ask you to marry a wife and have children like others, but... I'm afraid you will be hurt."

Wu Qiulian looked at him worriedly: "Xiao Jiu, you are a star now, and your every move is magnified..."

Bai Jiu was stunned for a long time, then turned around and walked in front of her, with a firm tone: "Mom, Ji Jiang is to me...not as simple as an ordinary lover. Without him, I would not be where I am today. I also believe that we can Get better together."

"No matter what happens in the future, we are mentally prepared."

"Okay, okay," Wu Qiulian said, "Ji Jiang is a good boy, and so are you."

A tear fell, and Wu Qiulian's voice was choked with sobs: "You...you must be well."

……

On the way back, Bai Jiu remained silent. Ji Jiang looked at him for a while, and couldn't help asking him in a low voice, "Xiao Jiu, did you say anything to Auntie?"

Bai Jiu said in a low voice: "My mother is a very smart person, she can see some things without saying anything."

Ji Jiang was taken aback for a moment, and quickly realized Bai Jiu's words: "Then...she, what should I say?"

Bai Jiu looked up at him: "My mother said that she supports me."

Bai Jiu's eyes were bright, and he looked at him steadily.

Ji Jiang laughed violently: "Auntie is a very transparent person, she was entrusted with inhumanity in the early years, and now, she has understood."

Bai Jiu took a deep breath: "So I have to do better and not lose her face."

"You can't be better," Ji Jiang said, "I can't even catch up with you."

The topic finally seemed less serious, and the atmosphere became active. Bai Jiu glanced at him: "Really? I see that your grade points in every subject are higher than mine."

Ji Jiang raised his eyebrows: "You know, for me, those are all rebuilds."

"...Okay," Bai Jiu said, "Then I'll work hard, at least I can't be too far behind you."

"I'll wait and see."

-

After returning to City A, Ji Jiang went to deal with the company's affairs, and Jian Cheng also came to Bai Jiu to discuss future plans.

Bai Jiu told Jian Cheng about his intention to suspend activities and concentrate on studying, and Jian Cheng frowned immediately: "It's very risky for you to do this, and now your popularity is high, if you seize this opportunity, you might be able to become a first-line player, you give up now , when the time comes to start from scratch, it may not be possible to have such a good result."

"No risk," Bai Jiu said, "I am confident that I will do better in the future."

"Xiao Jiu," it was the first time Jian Cheng spoke to him seriously, "Although this is your own life, I still suggest that you think carefully before making a choice."

"Brother Jian Cheng," Bai Jiu's tone became more serious, "Please believe me, I won't make mistakes in doing this."

Jian Cheng looked at him for a long time, and finally nodded: "Okay, you study hard, during this time, I will help you find scripts, and when you come out for business, I promise to give you a surprise."

"It's a word."

On the same day, Bai Jiu went to another place, which was a remote residential area on the Fourth Ring Road of City A.

He didn't seem to know the way very well, and walked aimlessly inside for nearly 10 minutes, before finally seeing a passerby, Bai Jiu hurriedly called to stop him.

"Hello, does Chen Ji live near here?"

The man sized Bai Jiu up, then shook his head: "Chen Ji? Who is it? I don't know him."

Bai Jiu had no choice but to thank him, and continued on his way. When he passed a poorly decorated breakfast and dinner restaurant on the side of the road, Bai Jiu suddenly saw a man in a military coat eating a bowl of rice noodles from the corner of his eyes.

He paused immediately, and turned to look at the man. It was already dark, but the store hadn't turned on the lights to save electricity. Through the afterglow of the setting sun, he could still see the greasy light and darkness accumulated on the tables of the store all year round. ground.

The military coat of the man sitting in the store was a bit torn, and there were some oil spots on the hem of the coat, and the man's hair was also a bit messy. People who didn't know him at first sight would probably think he was from somewhere tramp.

But he obviously didn't care about these, his head was almost buried in the bowl, and he was sucking rice noodles in big mouthfuls.

Chen Ji had been hungry for a whole day, and he didn't care about the heat, so he ate very quickly. Suddenly, he felt that someone pulled the plastic stool away and sat opposite him.

Chen Ji frowned. There are still so many vacancies in this store. Why is this person so blank and insists on sitting opposite him?

But he didn't bother to raise his head, he still concentrated on eating his bowl of noodles.

"Hello." The man on the opposite side suddenly said to him.

Chen Ji was taken aback, looked up at him, then widened his eyes, and choked instantly.

"Cough cough! Cough cough..."

Bai Jiu looked around, but couldn't find a tissue, only a small roll of yellowed toilet paper on the table. He lowered his head and took out a bag of tissue from his pocket, and handed it to the other party: "Slow down."

"Ahem..." Chen Ji coughed for a long time before he calmed down, and looked at him in disbelief, "Are you Bai Jiu?"

Almost no one in the entertainment circle knew Bai Jiu's face, but when he suddenly saw him, Chen Ji still couldn't believe it. Why did Bai Jiu appear here?

And... To be honest, Bai Jiu's neat clothes, delicate face and this dirty and dilapidated shop seem completely incompatible, but he just appeared here so inexplicably.

"That's right," Bai Jiu said with a smile, "I just happened to pass by and saw you."

Chen Ji looked at him incredulously and inexplicably: "...you know me?"

"I don't know each other very well, but we can know each other." Bai Jiu said.

"……what?"

Bai Jiu simply asked him directly: "Are you preparing a movie recently? It's called "No One Answers"?"

Chen Ji looked at him in surprise: "You know?"

"Well, I heard about this movie, so I came here to find you."

Bai Jiu looked at the person opposite, his eye sockets felt slightly warm.

Chen Ji is a talented director. He made several low-budget films in his early years, and the response was very good. He once praised Bai Jiu as a talented actor.

It's just that Bai Jiu's reputation got worse and worse later on, Chen Ji was very disappointed with him, and never mentioned Bai Jiu in front of others, but Bai Jiu always remembered him.

The first film "No Answer" he prepared back then won an award right after it was made, and it had a great impact. Unfortunately, because he couldn't raise any money during the filming, Chen Ji could barely cover the film with all his family property. After filming, there was no money for publicity and distribution in the later stage. The film was only shown in theaters for three days, and it ended hastily.

Chen Ji suffered from severe depression and committed suicide not long after.

It wasn't until later that this drama was suddenly discovered and won a big award, but at that time... Chen Ji had already passed away, and he didn't live to see people's love for his movie and accept the glory that belonged to him.

There are some things that Bai Jiu can't do anything about, but there are some people... Bai Jiu still has time to save.

Chen Ji scratched his head: "I am indeed preparing for this movie, but not many people know about it. I didn't expect that even you would know about it, so come here..."

Speaking of this, Chen Ji suddenly glanced up and down at Bai Jiu, his expression became very serious, and he said sincerely: "The male lead in this movie is not suitable for you, although I am honored that you are interested in this movie, but... I can't have you."

It is actually inappropriate to say this kind of thing. It is an honor for a little famous director, with Bai Jiu's current reputation, to come to him on his own initiative. protagonist.

Fortunately, the other party was Bai Jiu, and Bai Jiu didn't mind, his smile remained the same: "I know, I'm not going to shoot, I'm here to sponsor you."

Chen Ji was taken aback, and his expression instantly became a little surprised: "What? You, are you willing to sponsor me?"

"Yes," Bai Jiu said with a smile, "I like your drama and movie very much. It just so happens that I still have a little money, so I want to invest. Let me tell you first, I don't want anything in return. The movie will give me a dividend."

He said this casually. The niche film market has very few audiences. Although this film is famous, the final box office is not much. This investment is a loss.

Chen Ji rubbed his hands excitedly, and began to stammer: "Then you, how much can you vote?"

Bai Jiu asked him, "How much do you need?"

Chen Ji swallowed: "300 million, I can finish this movie with 300 million."

"300 million." Bai Jiu frowned in embarrassment, "I don't have that much money."

Chen Ji's eyes dimmed suddenly: "Then...then how much can you sponsor? In fact, it doesn't matter how much, as long as there is."

"500 million," Bai Jiu said suddenly, "I can give you 500 million."

Chen Ji stood up instantly: "Really?!"

Because of being too excited, the bowl of rice noodles on the table in front of him fell to the ground in an instant, and the bowl fell into pieces in an instant, causing the owner to scream: "Oh, what are you doing! Get me all the bowls!" Lost!"

Chen Ji hurriedly waved to the shopkeeper: "I'll compensate you how much, so please don't talk."

He suddenly turned his head to look at Bai Jiu, like a falcon that had been hungry for a long time suddenly saw its prey, eyes full of desire: "Can you give me 500 million?"

Bai Jiu blinked and smiled purely: "Just say what you say, and it will arrive tomorrow."

Chen Ji was so excited that he almost trembled all over his body: "You...do you want anything else? Uh...you can't play the male lead, but you can play other roles, or...or do you have anyone you want to join? "

Bai Jiu burst out laughing: "I don't act and I'm not a crowd pleaser. As for me, I'm just a sponsor."

Chen Ji was excited, but also a little puzzled: "Why did you spend so much money to vote for my movie?"

Bai Jiu raised his eyebrows: "My personal hobby is doing good deeds, you can call me... an angel investor."

-

After an exchange of gratitude to Dade, Chen Ji promised that the movie would be paid dividends to Bai Jiu, left his contact information, and said that he would prepare a contract immediately.

Satisfied, Bai Jiu got up and said goodbye to him, then took a taxi and went directly to Ji Jiang's residence.

The reason why he went to Ji Jiang's house was because his house had not been cleaned for a long time, it was dirty and dusty, and he was too lazy to go back.

On the other hand, he did have something to say.

Ji Jiang seemed to have expected him to come. The moment Bai Jiu opened the door, he smelled the aroma of rice, and his stomach grunted twice: "...It smells so good."

Wearing an apron, Ji Jiang brought out a bowl of soup from the kitchen: "The meal is ready, let's eat."

Bai Jiu smiled and leaned against the door: "You already knew I would come?"

"It doesn't count," Ji Jiang said. "I just can't think of it, where else would you go besides me?"

Bai Jiu said "tsk": "It's not good to know me too well. In this way, I have nothing to hide, and I will be ashamed to do bad things in the future."

"You still intend to do bad things," Ji Jiang glanced at him, and then found that Bai Jiu was still wearing the clothes he had when driving during the day, and he didn't even change his clothes.

"You didn't even go home, did you? Then where have you been today?"

Bai Jiu squinted his eyes: "Let's not talk about this first, can you lend me some money? I gave all the money I earned to my mother, and now I have no money."

Ji Jiang was taken aback, then turned to look at him: "Yes. How much do you want to borrow?"

Bai Jiu smiled and said, "Not much, 500 million."

Ji Jiang: "...Huh?"

Bai Jiu's eyes widened, and he looked at him innocently: "No way, no way, Ji Da Actor can't even get 500 million?"

Ji Jiang didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "...It's okay, you can tell me first, what do you want so much money for?"

Bai Jiu smiled: "Do charity."

"... Loans for charity?" Ji Jiang raised his eyebrows.

"Yeah, I'm doing charity with a loan, so that I can show my sincerity. If I don't have money, I have to donate."

Ji Jiang couldn't help laughing: "Okay, what you said is clear, just borrow it, and you don't have to pay it back."

"That won't work," Bai Jiu said, "How can you borrow money and not repay it? I will definitely repay this money. Don't worry, I will never default on my debts."

"Really? Never renege on your debts." Ji Jiang joked, "It's been two months since you promised me the women's clothing, why haven't I seen it yet?"

Bai Jiu choked up suddenly: "Do you have to mention this kind of thing at such a time? I have no appetite."

"Don't eat?"

"Eat, eat, eat," Bai Jiu changed into his slippers and walked to the dining table, "I'm starving to death."

……

After eating and drinking enough, Bai Jiu told Ji Jiang why he wanted so much money. After hearing this, Ji Jiang laughed and said that Chen Ji was indeed a genius director. He felt sorry for him after his death, but he forgot, as if " The shooting time of "No Answer" was at this time, and Bai Jiu was very happy to be able to think of him.

"The money really doesn't have to be repaid," Ji Jiang said, "Just treat it as if we invested together."

"Are you sure?" Bai Jiu said, "You will definitely lose money on this investment."

"It's not a loss," Ji Jiang said, "Maybe there will be a chance to cooperate with him in the future. If Chen Ji survives that year, his future will be immeasurable."

Bai Jiu suddenly smiled: "I want to go with you."

-

In the first month after Baijiu and Jixiang ceased business, fans from both parties were still following Aite and them.

Sanriyue: In?Come out and post a selfie.

Maomao: Woohoo, let’s do business, I really want to see you do business.

Little Water Monster: Are you two really not going to open for business?Don't you have any interest?I beg for a pie!

In the second month after Baijiu and Jijiang ceased operations, the fans gradually became indifferent.

Desk: My heart is dead, this may be the painful period that star chasing must go through.

Qiye: It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, as long as you don't quit the circle, you still have a chance.

A Lilac: Taking advantage of this time, the sisters strive to improve themselves and wait for their return with a better look!

In the third month since Bai Jiu and Ji Jiang ceased business, the entertainment industry gradually began to find out such a person, and their original star power has been continuously declining. The popularity of "Ling Yun Zhi" remains high, but the two leading actors are almost Fade out of the entertainment circle.

At the same time, some malicious words on the Internet also began to spread.

Hawthorn: Sure enough, it's hot and cold. There are more people like this in the entertainment industry.

Pork Pork: At the beginning, it was so beautiful, but now no one cares about it. It seems that our "Moon Shadow" is reliable. At least the two leading actors will have new dramas one after another.

Doudou: The silence of others is our opportunity, Han Shiyan Chong!Big bang!

After another half a year, the discussion about the two people almost stopped.

However, in C University, these two people are still influential figures, and the topic is getting higher and higher every year.

Because the students of C University discovered that when they returned to campus from the non-stop publicity period, the lethality they brought... seemed to be more than twice as high as before.

If it is said that Bai Jiu and Ji Jiang were the top students and idols of the students in the teacher's mouth before, then now, they are two big mountains that live on everyone's heads.

Whether it's grade points, social practice, or multi-party influence, these two people are ahead of everyone at a speed that surpasses everyone, and they have become a nightmare for everyone in the acting department and even most majors in those few years.

In the campus forum, everyone's focus has changed from gossip at the beginning to hope that they can graduate quickly.

A titled "Can these two great gods graduate this year?"I heard that their grade points are almost full" is always the Top hot post in the forum, always floating on the front page.

[F1: People can't, at least they shouldn't be so good. I don't dare to look at them now, for fear that if I get in touch with them more, the teacher will ask me to learn more from them. ]

[Floor 5: I also want to emulate them, how can I learn this thing?There are no exams that are close to full marks. Is the teacher partial to the marks? ]

[Floor 8: Do you still need to ask if the teacher is eccentric?In the class quiz, both of these are direct demonstration performances]

[Floor 30: I beg God to bless them to graduate as soon as possible, don't mess with us anymore, go to the entertainment circle!Let the actors in the same period also feel the pressure of this horror! ]

……

【one year later】

A topic suddenly airborne on the still bustling Weibo.

#白久quit the showbiz? #

Under the topic, countless fans made shocking speeches, saying that they hadn't seen Bai Jiu for almost a year, and Ji Xiang occasionally reposted some news, but Bai Jiu hadn't moved at all for a whole year. Fans thought that he probably quit the entertainment industry.

In the end, I don't know which wicked person brought up this topic first, and fans who didn't know it followed suit, and this topic became a hot topic in an instant.

However, this topic was withdrawn soon, and another topic re-emerged in the hot search.
