My soul and I have interpenetrated [Entertainment Circle]

Restaurant box.

The waiter couldn't help but cast a few more glances at the guests on the table when serving the dishes, her eyes suppressed the excitement, and she slowly put the dishes in the trolley together.

"Mr. Shizhou, the dishes are all ready..."

Halfway through the words, the waiter suddenly blushed.

She is a new intern, and she was just serving ordinary dishes. How could she have imagined that sitting in the box was Shi Zhou, the heroine who is now a hit in "Troubled Times"?

The appearance on the TV screen is enough to attract people, but Shi Zhou is still the one who is not photogenic!The lethality of a real person's beauty is hundreds of times stronger!

She didn't care about serving food, she just wanted to take a peek, and when she didn't pay attention, Shi Zhou's name popped up.

The waiter was a little embarrassed, "I'm sorry."

Shi Zhou smiled slightly, "No need to apologize, but I need to have a quiet meal with my family. If it's okay, please don't disturb the other waiters, thank you."

He has always been polite and unfamiliar to outsiders, and there is a clear feeling in his voice that is like a melting ice spring.

The waiter's cheeks became even redder, and in an instant, he saw the middle-aged woman opposite Shi Zhou drop the water glass on the table, making a little commotion.

The smile on Shi Zhou's lips froze for a moment, and then disappeared in a blink of an eye.

The waiter didn't dare to stay longer, and after nodding politely to the two guests, he left the box immediately.

Before closing the door, she glanced secretly through the crack of the door——

Sitting across from Shi Zhou was a middle-aged woman, about 50 years old, wearing a modified cheongsam that was mainly black. She looked calm and generous, but there was an indescribable seriousness in her eyebrows and eyes.

Is this person Shi Zhou's mother?But why is there such an indescribable restraint in the atmosphere between the mother and child?

very strange.

The door of the box was closed tightly, and the atmosphere was vaguely replaced by silence.

Shi Zhou took the initiative to serve Lou Keqin a bowl of soup, "Mom, would you like to try it? Where's Dad? Didn't he come back with you?"

Lou Keqin saw his filial adopted son, and sighed, "Your father found out the physical examination you gave us both last time."

When Shi Zhou thought of the past, he felt a thump in his heart, "What did you find out? When did it happen?"

Lou Keqin could see the nervousness and worry in Shizhou's eyes, and said truthfully, "There is a tumor in my stomach. Fortunately, the physical examination found it early. After the examination, it was said to be benign. The specialist's operation is preliminarily scheduled around New Year's Day."

"Your father didn't want you to worry, so he kept it secret."

Benign?

Back then, Ninsei's condition turned from benign to malignant because of the delay for too long. It seems that the examination a year or so earlier has indeed taken effect.

Shi Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, I'll go abroad to see Dad when the time comes."

Around New Year's Day, "Troubled Times" is about to wrap up.

Lou Keqin took a sip of the soup and said slowly, "I'm going back to China without telling your father this time. I pretended that I went to participate in a flower art competition with my friends, and it took four days to go back and forth."

"..."

Shi Zhou heard the overtones and stopped talking.

Lou Keqin put the soup bowl back on the table, looked straight into Shi Zhou's eyes, "Didn't you work behind the scenes in China? Then how come even a waiter with an internship logo knows you?"

"Shizhou, you and your dad know that I hate everything in Huaguo's entertainment industry, yet you and your father teamed up to lie to me?"

"If I hadn't accidentally seen a video of your childhood being circulated, I wouldn't have known that my son had become a famous star in China!"

Shi Zhou's eyelids drooped, silently watching the ripples in the soup bowl.

Because Shi Zhou accidentally fell into the sea after entering the entertainment industry as a trainee, Lou Keqin was disgusted and blocked all matters related to the entertainment industry.

Moreover, coupled with Shi Renqing's intentional concealment, Shi Zhou was able to conceal her for nearly three years.

Shi Zhou knew that paper could never keep the fire, but he didn't expect that this time, the accident would appear on the birthmark video he clarified about the 'hickey'.

Shi Zhou replied calmly, "Mom, I didn't do well in this matter, I shouldn't lie to you."

Lou Keqin took a deep breath, "Xiaozhou, if you apologize, you won't be spared. The water in the entertainment industry is too deep. I came this time to persuade you to go back with me."

"There are so many orchestras abroad, and your piano skills are not bad, so you can still find a good job. Don't stay in a dirty place like the entertainment industry!"

piano?

When Shi Zhou heard this word that had been bound for nearly eight years, a gleam of light shone from his eyes.

Not to mention that one of the reasons why he became an actor was that he was tired of working with the piano day and night. The most important thing is that he is no longer who he was five years ago.

Any skill will become rusty if it is not practiced for a long time. How can Shizhou make a living with "piano" like Lou Keqin expected?

"Mom, you already know that I have become an actor in Huaguo. I have a drama that I have yet to finish filming, and my contract with the company has not yet expired."

Shi Zhou came up with an excuse, "It's irresponsible for other people to go abroad like this regardless."

"Then wait until you finish filming the show. As for the agency, I will pay for the termination of the contract."

Lou Keqin's attitude only took a small step back, and the exit brought the usual order again.

"Xiaozhou, that's all I've said, don't be self-willed! You can't stay in a place like the entertainment industry, and you're not suitable for it!"

Shi Zhou had listened to these seemingly familiar remarks no less than ten times, and his heart was already immune.

He asked back with the only glimmer of hope, "Mom, if I say, I like the job of an actor, I like to experience their stories as characters, and I don't want to leave the showbiz?"

"..."

Now, Mo Mofang became Lou Keqin.

Shi Zhou remembered the two years when he retired from the industry, and took a sip of warm water, "Mom, I'm an adult, and I want to choose a lifestyle I like."

"I am very grateful to you and Dad for raising me all these years. I will do my duty, but..."

"Just what?"

Lou Keqin interrupted, "It's just that you have to be determined to take root in the entertainment industry? Shizhou, did you hear me when I told you not to? You shouldn't go this way!"

The hope that should not have been in my heart was completely disillusioned.

Shi Zhou's fingertips holding the water glass were so hard that they turned white, but they still couldn't control the fingertips, "What if it's not me, but Shi Zhou?"

Lou Keqin was full of astonishment, "What?"

"If Shi Zhou, you would definitely agree to all his requests, right?" Shi Zhou smiled self-deprecatingly.

"You have always regarded me as his substitute, eating habits, dressing style, daily hobbies, and even career and marriage have to be highly consistent with him once!"

The only difference is that Shi Zhou likes the stage, so he joined the entertainment industry.However, due to Shi Zhou's accidental tragedy, Shi Zhou could not take a step into the entertainment circle.

There was a trace of soreness in Shi Zhou's eyes, more of the exhaustion and disappointment accumulated over the years, "But have you ever thought about it, I am an independent individual, and I will get tired after a long time."

If in the past, Shi Zhou was willing to turn a blind eye or close one eye to live on because of the paranoia of Lou Keqin's early loss of his son, when Shi Renqing fell ill, he was also willing to put down his thriving career and go back to do his best. Filial piety.

But later, when Lou Keqin tore up his passport and documents, and even sent the divorce agreement to Sheng Yanwen without telling him, he finally fully recognized——

From the beginning to the end, Lou Keqin did not treat him as his son.

In her heart, Shizhou will always be the shadow of Shiri, unworthy of having her own thoughts, career and love.

Lou Keqin hesitated to speak, "You..."

She never took the initiative to mention her son who died young in front of Shi Zhou, how could the other party know so clearly?

"Mom, I can't become Time and Day, and I don't want to live in his image!"

Shi Zhou's words were very firm, and even directly punctured the key point——

"And I like men, so it is impossible for me to marry a wife and have children in the future. Homosexuality is now legal in Huaguo. If I have the opportunity in the future, I will choose to take root here."

If it is said that Shi Zhou faced Lou Keqin with fear, timidity, and pressure in the past, then after experiencing all that now, he is no longer willing to live in the other party's shadow.

Shi Zhou will not hide from the filial piety that should be done.

But Shi Zhou didn't want to continue to cooperate with the rules that shouldn't be followed.

If it was said that Lou Keqin was dissatisfied at most about entering the entertainment industry without telling the truth, then Shi Zhou's following paragraphs completely hit Lou Keqin's bottom line.

like men?

Lou Keqin's eyes changed with anger, "Shi Zhou! Do you know what you're talking about?"

Shi Zhou calmly nodded, "I know, Dad, I will explain to him personally. I am not Shi Zhou, so please don't mistake me for him, okay?"

Lou Keqin had never seen Shi Zhou so recalcitrant, she picked up her handbag and said disappointedly, "Of course you're not like Xiao Zhou!"

"If Xiao Zhou is still alive, he must be more obedient and better than you!"

"..."

Shi Zhou's eyes dimmed, and he smiled bitterly.

Even though he had already prepared for "I am not as good as the day", Lou Keqin's belittling words still poked a blood hole in his heart.

The compartment door was slammed shut.

Lou Keqin ignored his 'rebellious' adopted son and rushed out.

Shi Zhou took a sip of the ribs soup that was already completely cold, and looked at the table full of dishes and didn't even think about eating. He stayed alone for a long time before he belatedly pressed the call bell.

Soon, the intern waiter came in again, "Hi sir, what can I ask for?"

Shi Zhou didn't want to show his clues in front of outsiders, suppressed the bitterness in his heart, "Hello, pay the bill."

"Can these dishes help me to give to people in need? I have something to do temporarily, these dishes are basically untouched, just scooped two spoonfuls of soup."

The waiter suggested, "Can it be packed?"

Shi Zhou shook his head.

He doesn't have much appetite to eat now, and he is afraid that it will be a waste to pack and go home in the end.

Seeing this, the waiter said, "Mr. Shi, that's okay, our store will reserve half an hour for welfare meals every night, and we can give them to those in need."

"Okay, thank you."

Shi Zhou settled the bill, and by the time he left the restaurant, the sky had completely darkened.

Lou Keqin's sudden arrival broke Shi Zhou's original plan. At this moment, his heart seemed to be filled with heavy stones. He only wanted to do it again to be able to stand side by side with Sheng Yanwen, but he almost forgot——

The adoptive mother's attitude never changes.

He will never be as good as time?Ah.

Shi Zhou's mood fell to the bottom, and he was afraid that if he went to Sheng Yanwen's birthday celebration party, he would be spotted by others.He thought for a while, then turned around and walked towards the familiar tavern in his memory.

...

Half an hour later, Shi Zhou sat alone at the bar booth.

This bar was opened by a senior star in the industry, and the other party and Shi Zhou had a rivalry scene in the previous play.

Although it is made in the form of a tavern, it is not open to the public.Only entertainers in the circle or friends who are familiar with the boss are accepted, and the privacy is guaranteed.

Shi Zhou sank alone on the soft sofa, recalling everything two years ago with the help of alcohol——

He felt that he had missed too much, and he was even ashamed of the rumors he had been waiting for in China.After a long-term relationship in a foreign country, it would be a lie to say that there is no distance between the two.

On the eve of returning to China, Shi Zhou and the assertive Lou Keqin had an unprecedented quarrel, and returned to the country with their own reissued documents.

While waiting at the airport, Shi Zhou typed and deleted in the input box, but he didn't know how to export it.

He was afraid that Sheng Yanwen had already seen the divorce agreement, and he was even more afraid that the other party would sign the divorce agreement quickly.

After all, in two years, my lover has already become an actor with both career and status, while he is just a past actor who has stagnated and may not be supported when he comes back.

If Sheng Yanwen really lost his affection for this marriage, what can he do to save it?

divorce?

Then watch Sheng Yanwen with someone else?

When Shi Zhouguang thought of this possibility, he felt that his heart was crushed into powder, and the alcohol was getting more and more intense, but he still couldn't numb the soreness and pain brought about by the past.

The system detected the alcohol content in Shi Zhou's body, and saw that he was uncontrollably drinking one cup after another, so he sent a location WeChat message in Shi Zhou's own name.

--

When Sheng Yanwen received the positioning WeChat from Shizhou, he had just cut the cake at the urging of the staff.

He avoided the crowd and called back the phone. The waiting call sounded until finally someone answered.

"Hello."

Sheng Yan heard a strange man's voice, and immediately frowned, "Who? Where's Shizhou?"

"Hello, sir. This is the Taobao Tavern. I am the bartender at the Tavern. Brother Zhou was drunk and sleeping on the sofa, so I took the liberty to answer the phone."

Sheng Yanwen reported the address located by WeChat, "Is the location accurate? I'll pick him up."

"precise."

The bartender remembered his boss's order, "Sir, our tavern has regulations, if you are not a friend of the boss or an insider..."

Sheng Yanwen didn't care to listen to him, so he said forcefully, "Keep an eye on him, I'll talk about it when I get there."

He hung up the phone in a hurry, and explained a few more words from Jin Song and others, and after pretending to be wearing a hat and a mask, he took the car keys and left the door of the hotel box.

There was a distance between the Taobao Tavern and the birthday celebration hotel, and it was already ten o'clock when Sheng Yanwen arrived.

The bartender saw that Sheng Ruowen was also an insider, so he lost half his heart to stop him.

He brought Sheng Yanwen to the single room where Shi Zhou was, and revealed in a low voice, "Mr. Sheng, brother Zhou has been asleep for a while."

"Privacy can be guaranteed in our tavern, but there is no way to guarantee it outside the tavern. If it is not convenient for you to take him away, should you contact his manager?"

Sheng Yanwen heard the waiter's words, his tone was calm, "I know, your boss is Bao Yangchun?"

"Hey, it's Teacher Bao!"

Sheng Yanwen nodded, "I have cooperated with Brother Bao since I debuted, but I haven't seen him for a while, please say hello to him for me, and I will invite him to dinner again when I have a chance."

Sheng Yanwen looked at Shi Zhou who was obediently lying on the sofa, "You don't have to worry about the rest."

The bartender knows a lot about the entertainment industry because of his work.

He knew that "The Troubled Times" starring Sheng Yanwen and Shi Zhou was on the air, and the two also had the love of many drama fans and fans outside the show.

The bartender didn't try to speculate about the relationship between Sheng Yanwen and Shi Zhou, but he left the small room in a sensible manner after explaining everything he had to say.

Sheng Yanwen looked at Shi Zhou who was curled up on the sofa, and walked over quickly.

The heating in the private room was well adjusted, perhaps because he drank a lot of wine and was wearing a sweater, Shi Zhou's face was flushed with heat, and it was especially painful when it fell on the already fair foundation.

He didn't sleep deeply, his brows were tightly frowned, and he didn't know what he dreamed of.

He clearly said he wanted to stay in Hengcheng to film a movie, so why did he suddenly appear in Haishi?

What happened to him, he gave up his usual restraint and propriety, and made himself look like this.

Sheng Yanwen couldn't figure out why, so he could only lean over and caress Shi Zhou's hot cheek twice, "Shi Zhou? Shi Zhou?"

"……Well."

Shi Zhou choked up uncomfortably.

The system existing in the consciousness remembered the host's previous explanation: Fifteen, you are already a mature system, and it is time to learn to automatically shut down when necessary.

There are good rumors, Zhoubao will definitely not encounter trouble.

The system that consciously completed the 'assist' task was shut down, and the host Zhoubao was lost to his future husband.

Sheng Yanwen yelled two more times, and Shi Zhou opened his eyes in a daze after being several beats behind.

He failed to see the grand rumors in front of him for real, but instinctively called out coquettishly, "Husband."

"..."

Sheng Yanwen's hand that wanted to support froze in place for an instant, his heart was beating at an unprecedented speed, and he stared at Shizhou whose eyes were blurred in disbelief.

"What are you calling?"

Shi Zhou was so drunk that he only felt that the person in front of him was a phantom.

He shook his drowsy head, completely ignoring Sheng Yanwen's rhetorical question, and just relied on the remaining plan in his mind to say, "What time is it? I, I'm going to celebrate his birthday."

After speaking, he got up from the sofa, but fell back down because of the drunkenness above him.

Sheng Yanwen remembered Shi Zhou's body that was prone to bruises when bumped, and quickly grabbed his hand to coax him, "Sit down, don't walk around."

"Leave me alone!" Shi Zhou suddenly became anxious, muttering intermittently, "If you don't go, it will be too late."

"I haven't given him a birthday for two years. He will be disappointed in me...will...don't like me."

In the first year of going abroad, Shi Zhou originally planned to return to China when Sheng Yanwen celebrated his birthday, but Shi Renqing's condition worsened, so he had to suppress this idea for the time being.

In the second year of going abroad, Shi Zhou had already bought a ticket to return to China, but Lou Keqin suddenly stopped him, tearing up and hiding his documents.

Shi Zhou could only hold on to the jet lag and Sheng Yan to hear WeChat blessings helplessly, but how could he not know that his lover's disappointment was getting deeper and deeper every time through the screen?

"..."

Who hasn't had a birthday for two years?Who will be disappointed?Who wouldn't like it?

Sheng Yanwen's heart, which was still beating wildly, came to a standstill because of these sudden words, as if he had fallen from heaven to hell.

He stared deeply at Shi Zhou who was still struggling in front of him, and had to force him to sit down again, "You're drunk."

Shi Zhou's struggle didn't get any smaller, instead, he tried hard to let go of the confinement of Sheng Yanwen, "Don't touch me, don't, don't touch me! My husband, he...he will be angry!"

Sheng Yanwen couldn't control the jealousy and jealousy in his heart anymore, and suddenly shouted, "Shizhou! What do you mean?"

"..."

Suddenly, a heavy voice hit Shi Zhou's ear, and he was stunned.

He raised his gaze tremblingly, and the blurred outline in front of his eyes gradually became clear, but Sheng Yanwen's eyes were still as terribly heavy as in a dream.

——Didn’t you want to separate from me as soon as you returned to China?Shizhou, I signed, and now I leave the decision to you.

The resonance in the depths of the soul sneaked into the drunken dream, but unfortunately the dream was only halfway through, and Shi Zhou woke up because of Sheng Yanwen's shouts.

The alcohol completely confused the brain, and now Shizhou couldn't distinguish reality from dreams, let alone what was real and what was fake.

He only remembered that Sheng Yanwen forcibly dragged him to the study room and signed the divorce agreement in front of him.

Shi Zhou lowered his head in a daze, looking at his empty ring finger.

The ring is gone, long gone.

It was as if the last straw had suddenly disappeared, and the fear that had accumulated in my heart finally burst out.

The drunken eyes quickly accumulated mist, and the tears broke the embankment with a slap, Shi Zhou tightly hugged the Sheng Yanwen in front of him, crying and resisting, "Don't..."

Do not divorce.

He doesn't want to divorce Sheng Yanwen.

Sheng Yanwen's body tensed up, he didn't know what to do with the man in his arms, "Say it clearly, what do you want?"

From the time he turned on the phone, he teased him openly and secretly, relying on the identity of the partner to be unscrupulous, and later took advantage of the role to be ambiguous, and even got close in the storage room without the costume.

Sheng Yanwen thought that it was time to wait for the finishing touch after the finale, but what is the situation now——

Tell him that he is busy with filming and can only make up for his birthday in the future, and stay in the early morning to wish him birthday wishes, and then turn around and get drunk for no reason, crying and wanting to celebrate another person's birthday?Are you afraid that you will not be able to catch up?

Keep saying no, what are you saying?Is it because another person abandons him?

"Honey, don't divorce..."

"..."

Sheng Yanwen sat stiffly on the sofa, unable to describe what it was like at the moment.

No matter how much he cried, he couldn't get any response from Sheng Yanwen. Shi Zhou was wrapped up in an unprecedented despair, and even his breathing was difficult, "Yan Wen, Sheng Yan Wen, hug me, don't, don't want me .”

Crying in my ears, causing heartbreak like never before.

Sheng Yanwen's shoulders were wet from crying, and he hugged Shi Zhou into his arms with emotions that he couldn't even understand.

He has played so many roles, but this is the first time he is acting as a substitute for someone else, so ridiculous that no one even knows his name.

"Good, don't cry."

Sheng Yanwen tilted his head and kissed Shizhou's hair, and gently stroked the birthmark on the side of his neck with his fingertips to comfort him, "Zhouzhou, be good."

The familiar feeling finally brought back a sense of stability, Shi Zhou sobbed, with a bit of coquettish softness, "Honey, I don't want to divorce you."

Sheng Yanwen was silent for two seconds, but still reluctantly responded, "If you don't divorce, I will never divorce our family Zhouzhou in my life."
