Chapter 25 Chapter 25

The police arrived and saw that the two victims were fine. They bandaged their wounds and insisted on taking them to the branch office to record their statements.Cheng Lubai just sobbed along the way, and Ling Qingyuan kept comforting her, but it was just a nightmare, don't be afraid, you've already woken up from the dream.

The police officers in the bureau thoughtfully poured warm water for the brothers and sisters, and did not urge them to speak, but just waited patiently.Ling Qingyuan gave his sister the courage to gradually calm down, telling her all about Zhao Shuang pestering her intermittently.

This is actually a story of seeing sex, resentment and unscrupulousness because of failure to show love.It's just that there are minors on both sides of the story.Xiao Zhao probably has a lot of background, but he also fell in love with Cheng Lubai, the Cinderella. He could get Lubai's response to the invitation and advances earlier, but they all stopped at politeness indifferently, and Zhao Shuang, who was not reconciled, started Cheng Lubai deliberately made Cheng Lubai submit.

From Cheng Lubai's description of her relationship with Zhao Shuang, Ling Qingyuan faintly revealed a truth.Zhao Shuang is probably a young second generation with a lot of background. Knowing that Cheng Lubai wants to go to the draft, he obviously has money, but he only uses small favors to win the relationship between the two, and instead sets up a circle to inform her of Lu Youshen's loan.Maybe he was afraid of spending money to raise birds, but the birds flew high and lost the money; or maybe he couldn't bear to fetch water from the bamboo basket, but the girl didn't ask for it.In short, he gave Lu Youshen both the capital and the reward, and asked the latter to keep an eye on this girl.

In this way, Lu Youshen's glove with the white wolf was achieved, and both sides made money.Not only did he act for Zhao Shuang to seduce girls, but he also threatened Cheng's brothers and sisters and collected usury for nothing.

When the confession was halfway recorded, Cheng's mother also rushed over. When she saw Cheng Lubai, she immediately rushed to hug her and cry.Under the persuasion and comfort of the Quartet, the mother was relieved.

"I'm going to transfer Lu Bai to another school."

Coming out of the branch office, Ling Qingyuan said in an unquestionable tone.Next to him, two women, one old and one young, supported each other and listened to him quietly.After a while, the eldest son of the Cheng family has completely become the backbone.

"Transferring may not be enough..." Ling Qingyuan muttered to himself: "Is there any way to completely get rid of their entanglement once and for all. Is it possible to really move..."

"Hebai..." Cheng's mother hesitated and stopped. She wanted to remind her son that it would be better not to move given the family's situation.In such a big city, finding a place to live with affordable rent is like looking for a needle in a haystack.But she also knew that if Cheng Lubai's matter was not completely resolved, it would be equivalent to sleeping with a barrel of gunpowder in his arms, who knows when it will explode.

For 3000 yuan and a chicken that can lay eggs, who knows when Lu Youshen will make a move next time.

Ling Qingyuan fell into deep thought.This matter should not be delayed, he is naturally aware of Cheng's mother's worries, but compared with the family's personal safety and Cheng Lubai's healthy growth, there is another distinction.

The three of them returned home with a lot of worries, Ling Qingyuan asked his mother to take Lu Bai to bed early, and privately told Cheng's mother to ask her to find more relaxing things to distract the girl.

The figures of mother and daughter disappeared from the east chamber, Ling Qingyuan didn't rush back to the house.He watched the incandescent lights on the east side turn on for a while and then went out, and the courtyard was filled with stars, and he suddenly thought of a calculation in his mind-if the rich and powerful Hongxin Company can borrow their strength, the Cheng family's many difficulties may be solved in one fell swoop .

However, this requires people, Shao Weiming of Hongxin Starlight to give him Ling Qingyuan's job and take care of his sister and mother.Submissive and unequal negotiations are the last thing he wants to do.

Cheng's mother settled her daughter, came out from the east room, and saw her son standing in the courtyard in a daze, she stepped forward slowly and said, "Hebai, I've made up my mind, let's move. If you don't want to part with it, safety is the most important thing. The world is so big, there are so many places to go, and there will always be cheaper houses and a stable environment.”

A gust of wind blew up Ling Qingyuan's fluffy hair that he hadn't deliberately trimmed, and a few strands of hair fell on his forehead. He reached out to take off his non-prescribing glasses, and lowered his head not knowing what he was thinking.

"Moving... It's fine. It's getting late, you should rest early. I'll make a phone call first and quit my job in Taiping City."

On the eaves, one, two, or three tits chirped without worry. The summer evening breeze was just right, and their pointed beaks plucked their feathers.Born and died here, Ling Qingyuan's complicated feelings for this city in the two lives are no less than anyone else's. If the family leaves, he believes that Cheng's mother is not the only one who is reluctant to leave.

However, there is a way.

Ling Qingyuan returned to the living room, dialed the number of Dong Cheng in Daishan Yaju with his old landline, and went straight to the point: "I'm sorry, Mr. Dong, but I can't continue my job as a resident pianist. Please allow me to resign."

The other party fell into a silence counted in seconds. The sound of breathing slapped the microphone, and then dragged his throat, and asked somewhat exaggeratedly, "What's the reason?"

"Family matters. I want to move and leave Taiping City."

"Family matter?" Dong Cheng asked suspiciously, and blurted out without even asking for details: "Sorry, I can't agree, Yaju has never had an employee who comes and leaves whenever he wants. You are not an employee, but an uncle. "

"I'm the uncle, will you let me go?" Ling Qingyuan argued.

"Wait." Dong Cheng put down two words and hung up the phone.Ling Qingyuan looked at the beeping microphone and smiled subtly.Taking advantage of the natural light at night and the scattered city light, he stared at the wall clock on the wall in the dark, silently counting the number of revolutions of the minute hand.Ling Qingyuan believed that before long, the fate of the previous life and this life would be connected in some way.

Unsurprisingly, the call came back quickly, but he picked up the receiver but did not hear Dong Cheng's voice, but the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Hebai, I heard you want to resign?"

"Mr. Shao."

"You're welcome, just call me Weiming. You want to resign because of family matters, are you going to move?" Shao Weiming on the other end of the phone heard Cheng Hebai's flat yes, and then asked: "Can something big happen?" , you even want to move the house?"

"It's some troublesome things, that's why we have to move, lest we can't hide from them." Ling Qingyuan was indifferent, but suddenly the conversation turned to blame, and he complained: "Unless there is no other choice, who wants to leave life? place for so long."

"The tree moves and the dead move. If you encounter trouble, you should deal with it directly instead of going around. This principle couldn't be simpler." Shao Weiming on the other end of the phone didn't have much emotion in his tone, but the lingering feeling was still The young master who is supercilious and gives good advice: "Hebai, let me ask you sincerely, if the trouble is settled, will you still go?"

Ling Qingyuan laughed directly: "Mr. Shao breathed a sigh of relief."

"In my opinion, that little thing is just the ashes on the cigarette butt." Shao Weiming seemed to be swallowing, and the aftertaste between these words was particularly long: "Cheng Hebai, I sincerely want to sign you."

"When you come to Hongxin, you don't have to worry about anything else." Shao Weiming went straight to the point, and the meaning of the question was of course not obscure, using Cheng Hebai's troublesome matter as a bait.

"Mr. Shao boasted so much, I think you still don't know how difficult it is to deal with my 'soot' like a dog's skin plaster. He Bai thanked you for your kindness. However, if you know that things are difficult and impossible, wouldn't it hurt you even more? save face."

"Hebai, why do you despise me so much. It's just Lu Youshen, isn't it?" Shao Weiming uttered three words with a chuckle, like a lazy cat playing with a ball of wool.

Ling Qingyuan raised his eyebrows, an indescribably complex smile melted on his face, and he still praised verbally calmly: "It's amazing, it's easy to inquire. Now I really believe in Mr. Shao, and Hongxin Company has unlimited capabilities, Not to be underestimated."

"It's good that you know. By the way, Cheng Hebai, I just happened to tell you: I'm not Liu Xuande, and I can't do three visits to the thatched cottage. This is the second time... Don't wait for me to be courteous first. Later, when the 'rituals' are exhausted, when tit-for-tat confrontation, I If you force it, it will hurt your peace."

"This is a matter of my family, and we can't make a decision so hastily." Ling Qingyuan continued to evade. Now that he knew that Shao Weiming insisted on him, he was more confident and forced the young master to show his cards: "Besides, it's about my sister and my brother. Mother's peace."

"You won't agree to just settle Lu Youshen... Good guy, your appetite is really big enough." Shao Weiming spoke slowly, not showing signs of getting angry at all, and joked: "You have a good appetite, don't be afraid of your appetite Big, I'm afraid I won't have an appetite."

"...By the way, take care of your lovely little sister's little trouble."

Ling Qingyuan took half of his sentence and said: "Lu Bai wants to transfer to another school, to be an art candidate."

"Small idea."

"She can't sign into Hongxin Entertainment involuntarily now and in the future." Ling Qingyuan understands that for a big-handed entertainment company that controls a top-notch factory, it is not difficult for Cheng Lubai to enroll, but the difficulty lies in learning art without selling himself.So he added: "If it involves additional expenses such as tuition fees, I will bear it."

"You're so smart..." Shao Weiming's voice on the other end of the phone rose a few degrees, indicating that his own emotions can almost be summed up in joy: "When you said this, did you ever think that you should belong to your son? How much can you earn?"

"Of course." Ling Qingyuan said succinctly, "If my family is settled properly, I might consider Mr. Shao's proposal."

"Yes. As long as you are willing to come, other small things are easy for me. It's okay to do as you wish."

"Thank you in advance, Mr. Shao, please remember your words." Ling Qingyuan added without any ups and downs: "Also, you are the one who can do everything without hindrance. For a moment, please don't make me do anything beyond the boundaries."

"Is this an additional condition for you?" Shao Weiming asked in a pleasant tone, not feeling that there was anything unacceptable or contrary to his behavior and heart.

"You can understand it this way."

"Don't worry, nothing will go beyond the boundaries." Shao Weiming agreed very simply, but he didn't forget to add with a smile: "Everything... will be within the scope of the rules."

Ling Qingyuan frowned. He knew that the so-called "rules" were not such a wonderful thing.However, the person on the other end of the phone seemed to have made up his mind not to give him too much room for bargaining, so he changed the subject immediately.

"Cheng Hebai, the details can be discussed, and you can see the results you want to see as soon as tomorrow. I hope that when I see you tomorrow, you have already packed up and are ready to join Hongxin."

"Wait until I see it first." Ling Qingyuan still showed some reservations.After all, this was just a "discussion" rather than a unilateral "begging" by him, so he was happy to stick to this all-or-nothing attitude to the end.

Shao Weiming cut off the cigarette in his hand and threw it on the ground, the sound of sparks splashing over the phone seemed to be heard.However, Shao Weiming's tone was extremely calm and even joyful. He said, "Hebai, I like your tone so much... It's like wanting to get you and refusing to welcome you. I dare say, don't worry about your sister's tuition... I dare to pack it You will definitely be popular."

Shao Weiming hid half of the conversation, which was obviously half flattering, and waited for a long time but did not wait for Ling Qingyuan to ask curiously, so he finished talking for himself: "Do you know why?

"Because you're so good at acting. I can't wait to see you sooner..."

Said that a director can act, Ling Qingyuan really didn't know how to react.He smiled dryly, but he remembered that he was in the Department of Directing when he was in college. In order to make good movies and understand the mentality of performers, he specially took courses in the Department of Acting.At that time, Mudli praised him openly and secretly, "in the future, he must be the most famous director who knows how to walk the mass line well."

"Also, Hebai, how many times have I reminded you, remember to call me Weiming. Mr. Shao has a lot of them. It's hard to tell who you call him."

On the phone, the two chatted a few more words before putting it down.Ling Qingyuan took a few deep breaths, pursed his lips, and walked into his room.Shao Weiming told him to get ready, but Ling Qing believed it, after all, the other party was fully aware of his predicament before he even said a word.

As for whether it's playing hard to get... why bother to tell the truth, it's just that the wisher took the bait.

Cheng Hebai's bedroom is only big enough to fit a single bed and a wardrobe.Ling Qingyuan only occupied his sleeping place before, and took some clothes from him that fit his own aesthetics.

The following life will be more and more far away from Cheng Hebai's original trajectory.Ling Qingyuan was curious, and suddenly wanted to know what kind of hobbies and life the owner of this body had.He looked through the objects in the closet that were completely unclassified and regulated, and he knew that Cheng Hebai was a very unorganized and casual guy.

In addition, there are a few books stacked on top of each other, which can be regarded as a pretense to prove that the owner is also a literate person who has received compulsory education.

"How to Make Money Quickly", "How to Become a Successful Entrepreneur", "From Farming to Pig Raising-Golden Finger of Wealth", etc., if you only look at the titles, Ling Qingyuan believes that he must have come to the mansion of a high-yield farming writer.He thought about his study room nostalgicly and compared it with the floor-to-ceiling bookshelf in the living room, and he thought about it.

Flipping through it, he saw a few more magazines, and some old posters.Just from the degree of yellowing and dusting, Ling Qingyuan knew that this was before the boy surnamed Cheng was down-to-earth to make money and gave up his star dream.

Magazines and posters all point to it. Cheng Lubai said that her brother worshiped Li Haisheng, Wang Wenqiang, and Tan Yue.The title of one of them was Tan Yue's exclusive interview. It was nearly ten years ago when the TV series "Xie An" swept across the country.And Tan Yue, a young actor who has just left school, played the very important role of Xie An in his youth.

Ling Qingyuan has never watched this drama, but he knows the reputation of director Jia Fan. He is a well-known TV drama director with a serious historical style, and a gold-lettered signboard for drama ratings.The interview not only revolved around Tan Yue's performance in this drama, but also explored various anecdotes inside and outside the drama. Of course, what attracted Ling Qingyuan's attention to this interview was the young Xie An's attire, which took up nearly half of the page. .

Wide-sleeved bobelt and e-crown robe.Just like the famous scholars in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, they are well-informed, secluded and romantic.There are hills and valleys in the chest, but you can't do it for sex, and you can talk and laugh if you are talented.

Ling Qingyuan's eyes stopped on the photo for a while, and then flipped through the entire interview.Among them, Tan Yue was asked, the young Xie An watched the court turmoil but kept his will, and the current situation was peaceful and still cherished the thoughts of his homeland. The reporter asked him if he was as secretive as in the play, tenacious and calm.

Tan Yue's answer at the time was very humorous and hazy. He said that he dared not call himself a celebrity, but hoped to emulate Xie An's "a romantic life with a determined heart, and the best will last forever".

Ling Qingyuan thought about his impression of Tan Yue, especially after being reincarnated into Cheng Hebai, under the influence of his sister, he paid more and more attention to him.Seeing him several times recently, or seeing him on TV, really deserves the word "calm".

He smiled and turned back the interview. At the end of the film, the reporter asked him about his future work prospects and his development on the wide screen.

When asked why, Tan Yuezhi said: Director Ling's works have depth, and they are screen creations that insist on pure art.

Ling Qingyuan was stunned.Ten years ago, he was just a little-known little director who came out with only one work, not even Tan Yue, who starred in a few big plays, was well-known.Of course, now that he's buried, one negative and one positive can't compare to his popularity.But so many years ago, they didn't even understand it very early, so they said these words, which is really surprising.

If he had known at that time that Tan Yue was interested in acting in his own movie, Ling Qingyuan thought, would he have chosen him, or would he have declined with objective excuses such as image, salary, and experience as before.

The past is gone.Knowing about this, Ling Qingyuan mainly finds it interesting now, and also has some understanding of Tan Yue's recent behavior of either attending the memorial service or indirectly hyping "The Return of the Soul".
