Zero-sum game

Shen Yan hurried out of Zhou Xingchuan's house and rushed to the school gate.

Zhou Xingchuan heard that he was going to meet someone from Boss Chen's side, so he insisted on coming with him for some reason, but Shen Yan refused, so he could only let him come with him.

From a distance, I saw a girl in a black dress standing at the school gate.The weather was hot and the sun was strong, so she didn't hold an umbrella, and she still had long curly hair as Shen Yan had seen before.For some reason, the black dress was incompatible with the oversaturated green plants and the blue sky behind it due to the sun, and it was a bit abruptly black.

"Hello," Shen Yan actually didn't know her name, "I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

"It's okay," the girl smiled, with two strands of hair sticking to her forehead due to sweat, "I came here suddenly, so I thought I wouldn't see you."

"You said you have something to give me..." Shen Yan said, "Why don't we go to the milk tea shop over there and sit for a while, it's too hot here."

"No need, no need," the girl said, "I'll leave it for you, today is also the last day I'll be ringing."

Shen Yan thought of what had happened to him, and asked worriedly, "Why did you leave too? Could it be..."

He changed his words to the edge of his mouth, "Did you encounter any bad things?"

The girl seemed to shake her head inexplicably, and said: "No, I just don't want to go, the guests there are very disgusting."

"Besides," she seemed to glance at Zhou Xingchuan, who stood aside and said nothing, with some scruples, but continued, "If you weren't there, I would have wanted to leave a long time ago.

"Ah..." Shen Yan didn't know how to answer the words for a moment.

Zhou Xingchuan watched them and remained silent.

"This is for you." The girl handed the bag in her hand to Shen Yan.

Shen Yan opened it and found that it was a fresh-keeping box, which seemed to contain something like dessert.

"This is the milk pudding I made myself. You once praised how delicious it was."

"Thank you..." Shen Yan actually doesn't remember much about it...

"I left Dingchuan in the past two days. I thought that I might not have the chance to meet you in the future, so I ran to bring you here." The girl lowered her eyes and smiled, "I'm sorry to ask you to come out."

She looked up at Zhou Xingchuan again, smiled and said: "You and your friends share the meal, I'm leaving."

"You can actually keep in touch after you go to other places..." Before Shen Yan finished speaking, she walked directly to the side of the road. There was a car parked there, which seemed to have been waiting for her for a long time.

Before getting into the car, the girl turned around suddenly and said to him meaningfully: "You take good care of yourself."

Shen Yan watched the car start to drive away immediately after she got in the car, feeling a little complicated for some reason.

"Is there something she didn't tell you the truth," Zhou Xingchuan said suddenly, "It's like saying goodbye forever."

Shen Yan said: "Don't talk nonsense."

At this time Zhou Xingchuan's cell phone rang, and he frowned slightly after seeing Mo Qiang's name on it before picking it up, and Mo Qiang's request came from the other end immediately.

"Aunt Zhou said you would come to take me to the airport, where are you?"

"When will I..." Zhou Xingchuan suddenly remembered that he seemed to have promised in the middle of his words, "I'm in school now, I can't make it, you can take a taxi."

Mo Qiang snorted through her nose and said, "If I wait for you to pick me up, I'm afraid I'll have to wait until the next life, remember you owe me once."

After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone neatly.

From his expression and conversation, Shen Yan had already guessed who the person on the other end of the phone was, so he said: "It seems that you still have something to do, I'll go first."

Zhou Xingchuan held him back, "Don't leave yet, didn't Tian Xin say that you are looking for a house? Why don't you move to my place, the dormitory will be cleared in two days."

"Don't bother." Shen Yan held the pudding bag in his hand, and he didn't know why he was inexplicably irritable, "It's still a few days, I will find it myself, besides, isn't your guest room going to be converted into a study? There is no room Alright."

Zhou Xingchuan stared at him for two seconds, "You don't have time to look for a house, I picked up a new notebook for the two of us."

"what?"

The matter started when Zhou Xingchuan added Cai Ying's WeChat account yesterday.At first, he thought that what Cai Ying said about letting him play the leading role was a little uncertain. After all, he was just a student with no reputation at school, and he really didn't deserve the attention of the famous Cai Ying.

As a result, this morning, he had already received a notice from Cai Ying asking him to come and audition.

"Cai Ying, you know, right? Let's try his new play," Zhou Xingchuan said, "It's tomorrow."

Seeing Shen Yan's skeptical look, Zhou Xingchuan took out the script outline and audition script sent to him by Cai Ying in his mobile phone, "Play a pair of brothers."

"Time is very tight, we have to practice quickly." Zhou Xingchuan said, without mentioning that Cai Ying actually only asked him to audition by himself.

He didn't know why he said that all of a sudden - he just subconsciously didn't want Shen Yan to go.

Sure enough, Shen Yan did not leave immediately, and the two returned to Zhou Xingchuan's residence together.

Going out on a hot day and walking around was covered in sweat, Zhou Xingchuan went to get water, Shen Yan sat on the sofa, staring at the insulated box on the coffee table.He had already opened the lid, and inside were two snow-white rabbits.

"...It's all made of pure milk, the eyes are made of sesame seeds, and the ears are painted with the juice of red dragon fruit..."

When he saw this rabbit, he remembered when he had seen it before.At that time, he was taken by a senior from his hometown to interview for a part-time job for the first time. Before meeting Boss Chen, he first met a girl in the lounge who was handing out homemade milk pudding. Instantly melt.

So he praised it sincerely, and the girl who posted Ding smiled cutely, and said, "You have to go for an interview, otherwise you won't be able to eat in the future."

He didn't remember her face very clearly at the time, and later he deliberately kept a distance from the people inside, so he didn't remember the performers who came and went at all.And after he went in, he never met anyone to share snacks with everyone, and there was very little conversation in the lounge, so he gradually forgot about it.

Seeing Shen Yan staring at the two puddings on the table in a daze, Zhou Xingchuan put the water glass in front of him and asked, "Is that girl your friend just now?"

Shen Yan shook his head and said, "I'm going to wash my face."

Shen Yan went to the bathroom, and as soon as Zhou Xingchuan sat down, he saw his mobile phone on the table vibrate, indicating that he had received an untitled email.Zhou Xingchuan didn't pay attention at first, but Shen Yan's phone was not locked, so he could see that the email icon on his phone had accumulated 99+ messages.

How come there are so many unread emails?Are there so many spam ads?

His mailbox has been attacked like this before, maybe you can help him take a look.

Without thinking about it, he picked up Shen Yan's mobile phone and clicked on the mailbox. He opened an email from a few days ago at random, and a terrifying ghost suddenly appeared.Even though he was not afraid of these things, he was taken aback because he was not mentally prepared. After a short shock, he immediately thought, these untitled emails are all these things, right?

Zhou Xingchuan hastily clicked on it and looked at it, and found that there were not only scary pictures, but also disgusting pictures of vomiting and toilets, which were simply unsightly.

Why does Shen Yan often receive such things?He glanced at the date, and there were five such emails just yesterday.

"What are you looking at?" Shen Yan walked out of the door, staring displeasedly at Zhou Xingchuan who was flipping through his phone without authorization.

"What's the matter with these things? Someone is playing a prank?" Zhou Xingchuan asked instead.

Shen Yan took the phone back from his hand, "It's not been a day or two, I'm used to it, why are you looking at my phone casually."

"I'm sorry..." Zhou Xingchuan knew he was wrong, "I saw you had so many emails that you didn't read, and thought you were attacked by spam ads, so I plan to help you take a look..."

"She can post it as she likes," Shen Yan said, "I'm used to it."

"Do you know who sent it?" Zhou Xingchuan asked.

"I don't know, and I'm too lazy to take care of it." Shen Yan has already turned off all private messages on social software, and at night, he turns on the Do Not Disturb mode to refuse calls from strangers. SMS emails are really impossible to block, so he can only put them away. Let him go there.

"Then why don't you change your phone number..."

"It doesn't work, it should be someone I know," Shen Yan said, "I can always know my new account immediately."

Zhou Xingchuan fell silent.

Who on earth could have such great malice towards Shen Yan?How dark must it be to post this kind of stuff tirelessly every day?

The two fell silent for a while, and Shen Yan said again: "Didn't you say you want to read the script?"

If you don't read the script, you won't know it. Shen Yan can see the strength of the veteran screenwriter only from the outline.

Cai Ying was born in writing dramas, and he is very good at integrating the changes of the times into small characters, so most of his scripts are historical dramas.Although he claims to be a modern drama in this new book, it is actually a modern drama.

The main characters are a pair of brothers.The elder brother was taken away by a rich family when he was a child and became the young master of a rich family, while the younger brother grew up in a poor family and became a small tailor.

In order to make clothes for the ladies in the city, the little tailor went to the big city for the first time, where he met his elder brother who became a rich young master.Because of their different views, the rich young master made things difficult for this poor but optimistic little tailor, and a series of ironic stories happened.

At the end, the young master needs a blood transfusion for an operation due to an injury, and the little tailor donates blood regardless of the previous suspicions. The two chatted in front of the hospital bed, only to find out that they are brothers.

This script is really "Cai Ying".Many of his books have also been changed into TV dramas. It is not an exaggeration to say that Shen Yan and Zhou Xingchuan grew up watching his dramas.

"He wants me to try my brother and let you play my brother's little tailor." Zhou Xingchuan said.

Shen Yan slowly put down the phone, smiled and said, "You're lying."

"Actually, Cai Ying only asked you to audition." Shen Yan's expression was very determined.
