Because work was over early, the sky was still bright when the two of them returned to the hotel.
"Do you want to eat hot pot tonight?" Yu Bai opened the door and Sheng Xingze entered the room with a lot of vegetables. "Mi and Qiu bought a lot of vegetables."
"It looks really good." Yu Bai took the things in Sheng Xingze's hands very naturally, and he has done this action many times since Sheng Xingze came here every day for supper.
"Yeah, I'm fine today, alive and kicking." Sheng Xingze gave Yu Bai a suggestive look, as if to say but I still promised to sleep with you.
Yu Bai understood Sheng Xingze's eyes immediately, felt guilty for a second, and looked away from him, hurriedly carried the dishes into the kitchen, pretending to look at these things: "Is there anything I can do to help?"
Sheng Xingze followed him into the kitchen, sorted through plastic bags and handed him a bag of potatoes, "Can you peel them?"
Yu Bai took the potato, which was still covered in dirt, with some distaste, wishing he could stay one meter away from it: "Can I wash it?"
Seeing Yu Bai's appearance, Sheng Xingze laughed unconsciously, and turned the water tap in Yu Bai's direction: "It's fresh, don't be so disgusted, just wash it off."
The two were making dinner quietly in the kitchen. No one spoke, only the intermittent sound of water flowing and the thud of the knife falling on the cutting board.
Although it was the first time, Yu Bai finished it very well. The potatoes in his hands changed from black and dirty little children to cute little ones exuding attractive yellow. Every potato was washed very clean. Bai also carefully picked out the bad parts.
While cooking the soup, Sheng Xingze turned his head to look at Yu Bai's progress, "The talent is good, much better than me."
Yu Bai finished peeling the last potato neatly, washed it and put it in the basin: "Do you want to cut it?"
"Leave me alone, be careful that you'll get cut in a while."
Yu Bai didn't try to be brave, he stood beside Sheng Xingze and watched him pick up the knife skillfully and quickly cut the potatoes into thick and consistent slices.
"Why do you want to learn how to cook?" Yu Bai smelled the tempting aroma coming out of the kitchen, his eyes fell on the young man in an apron who was still busy in front of the stove in the heat, and suddenly he had a thought of the quiet time , it seems to be fine if it stays like this all the time.
"Don't you think a man who can cook is more attractive?" Sheng Xingze turned his head and smiled brightly at him, revealing a row of neat white teeth that almost dazzled Yu Bai's eyes. Although it says so, the truth is not so beautiful.
In the previous life, Sheng Xingze became the most incredible dark horse because he squeezed out a top actor, and won the best actor with a high gold content. Since then, he has gradually climbed to the top of the entertainment industry. Unconvinced, he secretly put food to which he would be severely allergic in Sheng Xingze's box lunch. Although it did not cause a catastrophe because he was sent to the doctor in time, Sheng Xingze has since developed the habit of cooking by himself. Bringing your own food is hard work, but at least it can guarantee safety.
Thinking of this, Sheng Xingze's eyes couldn't help but a trace of darkness flashed across, although it was quickly but still captured by Yu Bai keenly.
Yu Bai didn't know what kind of past happened to Sheng Xingze, but it was obvious that Sheng Xingze didn't have the urge to tell him, so he didn't say anything to refute Sheng Xingze's words, so he reached out and touched his furry head: "It's really attractive people."
Sheng Xingze, who was ready to fight back, made a terrified expression, which was so exaggerated that Yu Bai didn't want to admit that he was a professional actor, "Did actor Yu suddenly change his sex, or was he finally fascinated by me?"
Yu Bai didn't speak, and slapped Sheng Xingze's head moderately, and went to the dining table outside with the chopped side dishes.
The current Sheng Xingze never expected that the words he said casually would become the motivation for Yu Bai to learn to cook in the future, and gave him the biggest surprise one day in the future.
The cold winter night is undoubtedly the best match with the steaming hot pot. Sheng Xingze boiled a piece of hairy belly, and then went around in the oil dish, stuffing it into his mouth is full of happiness.
Yu Bai didn't have much appetite at first, but seeing Sheng Xingze eating deliciously, he couldn't help picking up the vegetables in his hands, almost as soon as Sheng Xingze ate, he picked up a piece.
A burst of mobile phone ringing broke the harmonious dinner time, Sheng Xingze looked down at the note, and apologized to Yu Bai in a low voice, picked up the phone and walked into the room.
"Dad, what's the matter?"
The person on the other side of the phone could vaguely hear Sheng's mother telling him to hang up the phone quickly, don't delay Xing Xing's work, etc., Sheng's father quickly responded, and there was a trace of grievance and nervousness in his voice when talking to Sheng Xingze: "Xing Xing, recently Are you busy? Dad didn't bother you, did he?"
Sheng Xingze hurriedly said no, "Dad, don't talk to me like that, you are my patron's father." He joked into the phone.
"Father is just dad, why don't you add a benefactor dad." Dad Sheng feigned anger, "Don't talk nonsense."
"Okay, okay."
Sheng Xingze was still talking and laughing with Father Sheng in the room, and Yu Bai waited restlessly for a minute, during which time he had to glance at the room every few seconds.
He just accidentally saw the note on Sheng Xingze's phone—Dad, for some reason, the greasy man in the photo given by Lin Mu suddenly appeared in his mind, and his mood after eating hot pot suddenly became much lower. The hot pot suddenly became dull. And because the distance was too far, he could only hear Sheng Xingze vaguely mentioning a benefactor, and the little emotion that had been suppressed in his heart rose again after seeing the photo.
In the end, he couldn't bear it anymore, and walked not far from Sheng Xingze pretending to go to the bathroom. He knew it would be extremely impolite to do so, but he just couldn't control his body, and he didn't know anything about Sheng Xingze. He couldn't help but want to know, not to mention that he was extremely concerned about this matter.
"Well, don't worry, no one dares to bully me."
"How come, you are the biggest investor."
"I eat and sleep well every day, and I have gained two catties."
"Okay, I'll take care of myself."
"I'll be back on time, you just wait for me at home."
Sheng Xingze hung up the phone and came out, Yu Bai went back to the hot pot one step earlier, "Eat quickly, there will be nothing left for a while."
Sheng Xingze glanced at the hot pot that he had basically left untouched, "Yu Yingdi, you don't have to wait for me."
Because of guilty conscience, Yu Bai saw that Sheng Xingze seemed to have found the trace that the hot pot hadn't been touched, and he had already made up several reasons in his mind, but Sheng Xingze's sudden words made all the excuses he had prepared useless, so he made a fool of himself. In the past, Yu Bai suddenly had a firm idea in his heart.
In the time that followed, it could be seen that Sheng Xingze was in a good mood, but on the contrary, Yu Bai was heavy. Seeing Sheng Xingze humming a little song happily, he seemed to be looking forward to the meeting in the future as the other party said. However, he couldn't bear to speak out and ruin his current good mood.
At night, while Sheng Xingze was taking a bath, Yu Bai hid in his room and called Zhang Chao. "Director Zhang, we're talking about a business. How much did the biggest investor invest in? You refund the money, and I'll pay double."
When Zhang Chao heard this, he immediately felt troubled. It was not a secret that Sheng Xingze played the part of the investor. Before, he always thought that Yu Bai and Sheng Xingze had a good relationship, but when Yu Bai said this, he almost expressed his intention to replace Sheng Xingze.
"Did... Sheng Xingze offend you? He is a very talented actor. If there is anything wrong, I will apologize for him first. Can you not replace him first?"
Zhang Chao opened his mouth cautiously. He was really reluctant to let Sheng Xingze leave the film crew. Without Sheng Xingze, he could imagine that basically no one in the entertainment industry could support Su Jinmu's soul like him. But he really couldn't offend Yu Bai. This dilemma really made him a different person.
"When did I say I'm going to replace him?" Yu Bai frowned, not knowing why Zhang Chao had such an idea.
"That… "
Yu Bai was silent for a while, "I don't want people to think of him first when they mention him in the future. He is a vase stuffed in by investors. He has enough ability to support him to complete this role, whether it is Sheng Xingze himself or his role. No character should be tarnished like this!"
