The phone on the seat kept vibrating. Chu Nanxing struggled to open his eyelids. He picked up the phone and unlocked it. The top message notification was a rainstorm warning.

"How long will it be?"

The assistant on the co-pilot turned his head: "Brother Chu, there is a traffic jam ahead, it will be fine after this section."

"It's okay, don't worry." Chu Nanxing stared out the window, the sky was dark, the street lights gradually came on, and the raindrops hit the window.

The phone vibrated again, and his friend asked him how he planned to spend his birthday this year.Chu Nanxing was so busy these days that he didn't even touch the ground, it would be nice to be able to tell which city he was in. Little things like birthdays had long been forgotten by him.

"I don't know." He replied with an emoji.

The friend replied: "Then we can figure it out. Remember to bring yourself when the time comes."

Chu Nanxing laughed, his birthday was just an excuse for his friends to get together.

An hour ago, he had just finished the last road show of "Monster Hunt". As a young director, the box office this time was quite impressive.

Four years ago, his first work after graduation won a moderate award, and became popular in a small area.Because of his handsome looks, he even overwhelmed many celebrities at the awards ceremony, and the photos when receiving the awards became popular searches, and even accumulated some fans.

Since then, he has remained almost completely silent, rarely appearing in the public eye.He has been preparing for the new work for three or four years, and he is already very satisfied with the current results.But no matter what, bad reviews are unavoidable, and the reviews under the hot search are mixed. Chu Nanxing yawned and frowned slightly.

After arriving at the airport, the torrential rain came. As expected, the flight was delayed. Chu Nanxing pressed his eyebrows and asked his assistant to buy him a cup of coffee.He never fell asleep on the plane, so he simply woke up and prepared for the next work.

The new script was still being revised indefinitely, so Chu Nanxing went to the teacher's crew to help learn some experience at the same time. After it was over, he was going to take a long vacation, and he happened to be with his parents.

It rained heavily in the middle of the night, and when Chu Nanxing returned to City A, it was already four o'clock in the morning. After the drowsiness passed, he became very awake. Chu Nanxing clicked on the trending search that dropped to the bottom. The latest one was to say that part of the plot of the movie was superfluous. .

The emotional scene that was added, he thought he shot it quite well, but who knew that the response was so bad.

Chu Nanxing thought about it for a long time, and felt that he would not be able to shoot emotional scenes. It might be because of his mother solo. He could not understand what love should feel like, so he could only shoot fake beauty without emotion.

In fact, it's not that he wants to solo, it's mainly because his orientation is different from the public.He was so cowardly, let alone coming out, he didn't even dare to tell the people around him.Apart from his parents, many people around him suspect that he is asexual, or that he is born lacking in love, and that he is doomed to die alone with a camera in his life.

Moreover, he has no longing for love, let alone any worldly desires.

A few years ago, when an actor climbed into bed in the middle of the night, he was frightened and called the police.The actress was wrapped in a sheet with a dull face, and Chu Nanxing was so wronged that he seemed like a big girl who almost lost her virginity. Afterwards, his friends laughed at him, and he has to bring it out every time he gathers to talk about it.

Moreover, regardless of the fact that all kinds of same-sex CPs in the circle can go around the earth several times, there are not many real ones, and there are only a handful of high-quality ones, so if you expect to meet a pleasant and suitable person at work, the chances are the same as winning the lottery Not much more.

Chu Nanxing thought, he should continue to solo.

Before I knew it, it was already bright outside.The room he lived in had floor-to-ceiling windows, and the heat wave outside could be seen faintly.

After walking out of the bathroom, the phone on the bedside table was vibrating. Chu Nanxing rubbed his hair and moved over to find out that it was the video call from Shanglu.

"Mr. Shang, good morning." Chu Nanxing said in a long voice.

He has always had a good relationship with Shanglu, and basically makes a video call every day.Chu Nanxing didn't think it was wrong. In his opinion, Shanglu was different from other friends.

Shanglu was having breakfast, glanced at him and said, "You didn't sleep last night?"

Chu Nanxing: "Brother, you really have sharp eyes."

They have known each other since childhood, and the two families are neighbors. They belong to the relationship of sleeping in the next bed after birth.The Phytophthora guy slept in an incubator for a few days because of his premature birth, only his crying was loud, and he could wake up 90.00% of newborns with a howl.As for Chu Nanxing, he was in a mess when he was born, and he tormented his mother all day long.

But after high school, Phytolacca grew wildly, as if eating chemical fertilizers.By the time he graduated, he was already half a head taller than Chu Nanxing.

Chu Nanxing stared at Shang Lu's perfect profile on the screen, and suddenly had an idea, if he really wanted to find someone to fall in love with, wouldn't Shang Lu be the most suitable person.He has come out publicly, has a clean net worth, has an outstanding job, and has a clean private life. He has been single for several years, and even his looks are [-]% in line with Chu Nanxing's aesthetics. He is simply the perfect candidate.

Chu Nanxing then clicked on the small box on the video, and took a serious look at himself. He has a decent appearance, a decent family background, and a clean private life. Even if he really fell in love, Shanglu would not be considered a loser... I guess.

Shang Lu remained single after coming out publicly, and the only two people who knew about Chu Nanxing's sexual orientation, his parents, once joked that otherwise they would be able to live together, and save their parents from worrying about their lifelong affairs all day long.

Chu Nanxing said righteously at the time that he would never covet his brother.

Life is the process of repeated slaps in the face, Chu Nanxing thought, what should he do now that he suddenly covets his good brother Shang Lu?

Take advantage of his next vacation to fall in love, and then go back to each house and continue to be close friends.Chu Nanxing sighed again, he thought very well, and he didn't know if Shanglu would agree.When he was young, he inadvertently heard Shanglu talk about his favorite genre with his friends, and it was difficult to match himself with any point.

"Nannan?" Shang Lu didn't wait for Chu Nanxing to reply for a long time. The man was in a daze during the video call with him, and he didn't know who was thinking in his little head.

Chu Nanxing came back to his senses, with a very obvious guilty conscience on his face, and quickly said: "The assistant came to ask me to have breakfast, Mr. Shang, goodbye, good night."

Shanglu looked at the bright sky outside, thinking that it would be good night to have breakfast, that guy would not be able to get up in the afternoon if he didn't sleep until the afternoon after staying up all night.

Chu Nanxing hung up the phone without any regrets, Shang Lu felt a little sour, and was still reluctant to complain about Chu Nanxing.

At this time, Shanglu still doesn't know what he will experience when he meets Chu Nanxing tomorrow.

"Brother Chu?" The assistant came in carrying the dinner.

"Xiao Hu, go outside and buy me a printer." Chu Nanxing woke up after a nap, and suddenly he was determined to have a relationship with Shanglu.He had a nightmare, but it wasn't a nightmare. After all, the picture was very beautiful and he liked it, but that scene was the wedding of Shanglu.

After waking up, he was very depressed, and it took him a long time to recover, which was finally attributed to the sequelae of staying up late.

"There is a photocopy shop downstairs on the set." Xiao Hu said, "It's also very cheap."

They were filming in the university town recently, and they borrowed the new dormitory of University A that had just been completed. Two steps down the stairs, there was a cafeteria and a supermarket, with all the facilities.

"No, no, no." Chu Nanxing shook his head like a rattle, "It's not safe." The main reason is that he is afraid that outsiders will see it too embarrassing, and good young people still need a contract to fall in love. Director Chu is very good at face.

Xiao Hu thought that Chu Nanxing wanted to print out the script or the contract, nodded and said, "Understood, it needs to be kept secret, so I'll buy it right away."

In the evening of the next day, Chu Nanxing finished the work of the crew and took a group photo with the staff, preparing to post on Weibo later.He didn't call his assistant, he drove to the Shanglu company by himself, and even queued for half a day in the nearby commercial street to buy some snacks.

Chu Nanxing swiped his card to get into Shanglu's special elevator, and took off his mask after the door was closed.

"Brother?" As soon as the elevator door opened, Chu Nanxing saw Shanglu coming out of the conference room.

"Why don't you say anything?" Shang Lu asked the assistant a few words, and then took Chu Nanxing's wrist back to the office.

"Work is over, I'm here to see you, and I'll send you some warmth." Chu Nanxing shook the paper bag in his other hand. It's Shanglu's favorite dessert. There's always a long queue in the store, so it's not always possible to buy it.

"I'm here to send you warmth in summer, you really love me." Shang Lu teased Chu Nanxing with a smile.

Chu Nanxing blinked, and said in a very ordinary tone, "I love you very much."

The corners of Shang Lu's eyes twitched, and his heart beat faster uncontrollably. He quickly came back to his senses and knew very well that the love Chu Nanxing spoke of was different from the kind of love he wanted.

"Director Chu is short of investment again?" Shang Lu changed the subject.

Chu Nanxing has already started to tidy up Shanglu's office. He is a bit of a cleanliness and obsessive-compulsive disorder, and he has long regarded Shanglu's place as his own territory, and he wants to get started unconsciously.

"Mr. Shang, am I the kind of person who only asks you for money? Please don't think of me as worldly." Chu Nanxing said angrily, "This movie also made some money, at least it didn't let me You lose money."

"I've made a lot of money. My personal assets are about to get a fortune. For the time being, it's enough for you to make a few movies." Shang Lu said.

Chu Nanxing curled his lips: "Master Jin, you underestimate yourself."

After tidying up the coffee table, Chu Nanxing took out the snacks in the paper bag, saw the folder in another bag, and bit his lower lip.

"Go home together at night?" Shanglu asked.

"Well, I'll be on vacation next." Chu Nanxing said absently.

"It's good to take a break, it doesn't show in the video, but now I look a lot thinner," Shang Lu said.

Chu Nanxing took a deep breath, took out the folder in the paper bag, and raised his hands in front of Shang Lu: "Mr. Shang, I have a very important cooperation that I want to discuss with you. This is a contract."

"So formal?" Shanglu put down his snacks, wiped his hands with a wet towel, and then took the folder.

Seeing that Shanglu remained silent, Chu Nanxing asked cautiously, "Can't you?"

"no……"

Shang Lu thought, I never thought that such a good thing could happen in the world.
