The elevator goes up.
Chi Xiaochi and Song Zhihuai stood side by side, standing next to Lou Ying who could not be seen.
Chi Xiaochi, who was extremely bored, didn't look sideways, and slowly stood on tiptoe, intending to be level with Song Zhihuai, who was nearly 1.9 meters tall, but Song Zhihuai lifted his elbow and pressed him down.
Ever since he saw Song Zhihuai's heroic face, Lou Ying's face was so cold that a layer of frost bloomed.
Chi Xiaochi's small movements broke the silence in the elevator, and Song Zhihuai also had a chance to speak.
He took off his glasses and wiped them gently with a lens cloth.
Song Zhihuai, who had taken off his glasses, was a little less personable and a little more suave.
But his tone was unusually polite and distant.
"...The third time." Song Zhihuai asked politely, "Mr. Chi, are you in trouble with our company's artist?"
Chi Xiaochi shrugged: "Isn't it because Nebula's artist likes me very much?"
Song Zhihuai smiled and was noncommittal.
Fortunately for Lou Ying, they went to more than one place.
Chi Xiaochi sat at the table in the small conference room that came with Song Zhihuai's office, took out a cigarette from the translucent black Marlboro cigarette case, knocked shredded tobacco on the case, and asked everyone's opinion one by one with his eyes. Just lit a cigarette.
The citrus-flavored pale white smoke lingered at his fingertips. He picked up the bone china tea set on the table with the cigarette holder, and said, "The color of this tea set is much better than last time."
Song Zhihuai showed a fake business smile, and replied with cherished words: "Really?"
Compared to Chi Xiaochi's Youzai Youzai, the faces of the people on the other side are not so good-looking.
The manager of the public relations department considered for a while before saying, "Mr. Chi, what do you think about Nina? I want to hear your opinion."
Nina, the one whom Chi Xiaochi announced that he would hug her for three years.
"I don't like to think about it, I like to do it directly." Chi Xiaochi said, "Nebula Entertainment's PR follow-up is too slow, I can only think of a way by myself, just rush it."
The PR manager took a small breath.
His "casual" behavior blew up the entire network.
"But you can't either..." Go to the marketing account and talk nonsense.
The manager calmed down and tried his best to say euphemistically, "You... really made it difficult for us."
Just as Lucas was about to open his mouth, Chi Xiaochi spoke again: "Come on."
Nina's agent was also present. She worked hard on this matter for two or three days, and her eyes were darkened. Hearing Chi Xiaochi's sarcastic tone, she finally couldn't bear to fry the pot: "July, now we want to solve the problem, not to further expand the problem. Change! Do you know how much trouble your message has caused to my family Nina? All the media are constantly calling, and her live followers have lost 30,000! If we hadn’t figured out a way to control…”
Song Zhihuai and the manager of the public relations department didn't have time to stop them, and at the same time closed their eyes slightly and couldn't bear to look directly.
"Ah, did I misunderstand?" Chi Xiaochi said lightly, smoking a cigarette, "When she bought my itinerary and asked the paparazzi to photograph me, she didn't want to marry me."
The broker was dumbfounded.
Lucas squeezed Chi Xiaochi's arm and stared at him desperately.
Chi Xiaochi glanced at him, then looked at him and held his hand, and shook his head in disapproval.
Lucas understood and let go of his hand obediently, but he still stared at Chi Xiaochi worriedly, for fear that he would say more provocative words.
In the silent conference room, Chi Xiaochi exhaled a puff of smoke, wiped his soft lips repeatedly with his thumb, and looked at the manager who was blushing and pale in the hazy smoke: "You have your channels, and I also have my own. Channels. Don't think that what you're doing is covert."
"As for the loss of fans, isn't it because she sold the steel straight T character design? I used to get bonuses and attracted fans, but now the public opinion can't be controlled, and it has attracted the attention of the top, which affects the broadcast of advertisements and new dramas, so I want to find someone There are rumors of male scandals, so we can get through this period, and finally clarify that we are 'good brothers'. It's really possible to attack and defend, isn't it?"
I don't know when, Chi Xiaochi's face disappeared from the smile of the false story.
He dusted off the ash, raised his chin slightly, and looked at the manager opposite him. The gloomy and silent temperament in his eyes had the illusion that his scalp was tingling.
"...The question is, why do you think I'll play this game with you guys."
Song Zhihuai coughed lightly, "Enough."
Chi Xiaochi's eyes curved beautifully, swept away the haze, and said kindly: "Yeah, that's enough. Now we'll listen to President Song. How should we deal with this matter?"
In the end, they negotiated a result that both parties were satisfied with.
Nina's side released official news to clarify the relationship between the two, on the condition that Chi Xiaochi never speak up about this matter.
"If I hadn't been free recently, I wouldn't care about such things." Before leaving, Chi Xiaochi smiled at Nina's gray-faced manager, "If you have similar needs, you can wait for me next time. Do this when you join the group."
Song Zhihuai sent the person to the elevator and asked how many underground floors his nanny car was parked, and then gentlemanly pressed the elevator for him.
When the door was about to close, Song Zhihuai stretched out his hand to block the retractable door again: "Mr. Chi, it's not that we don't know each other. If we do something again next time, can you please let me know out of courtesy."
Chi Xiaochi smiled and said, "Definitely."
After sending Chi Xiaochi away, Song Zhihuai was obviously relieved.
On the side, Song Zhihuai's special assistant smiled and said, "Mr. Song, you have met Mr. Chi so many times, don't you know him yet?"
Song Zhihuai shook his head: "This man is really terrible. I have no idea what's going on in his mind."
"It's also very interesting." The special assistant joked, "Let's not mention anything else, Mr. Song, you and him really seem to be on the right side. Don't you think about it? I heard that he is also... "
"I won't look for it in the entertainment industry." Song Zhihuai's attitude was unequivocal. While loosening his cufflinks, he turned around and walked to the office. He said calmly, "I don't want to bring trouble like this into my life."
Lou Ying silently listened to the conversation between Song Zhihuai and the special assistant before going downstairs to chase after Chi Xiaochi.
Chi Xiaochi had reached the B2 floor and was looking for his nanny car.
Lou Ying's phantom followed behind him, recalling everything he heard just now, his palms clenched into fists in his pockets unconsciously.
Lucas and Chi Xiaochi's height and leg length are not the same order of magnitude, so they can only chase after him and trot all the way: "Ancestor, my ancestor, we are here to negotiate, not to feud, what were you doing just now? You. Do you know that Nina has a gold master behind it, the boss of the backstage."
Chi Xiaochi asked back, "What's wrong with the backstage, don't I have it?"
Lucas: "..." He almost forgot that this is July Chi, who made his debut and entered the top supporting crew in the Chinese film industry. All the noble people he met were big and deep-rooted bosses.
Lucas said anxiously, "Then you can't offend people by dying. What are you trying to do?"
Chi Xiaochi: "It's cool."
Lucas: "…" Okay.
Seeing that he couldn't reach a consensus with Chi Xiaochi on this topic, Lucas changed the topic: "You know that handsome guy just now?"
In the conference room, Chi Xiaochi and Song Zhihuai were the only two handsome guys.
"The two of us have met before." Chi Xiaochi said, "It should be when I was seventeen years old. I was walking on a commercial show. He was on the bottom and I was on the top."
Lucas: "Wow, bamboo horse and bamboo horse."
Chi Xiaochi looked at him: "Do you know what the bamboo horse means?"
"It's almost the same, I understand it." Lucas's heart of gossip was burning, "Then what?"
"And then—" Chi Xiaochi glanced at Lucas and changed his tone subtly, "Someone introduced the two of us to know each other. We hit it off. Recognize people, let me pretend that this thing has never happened, and I have never met him since then."
Lou Ying gritted his teeth hard to suppress the strong soreness in his chest.
Lucas heard his mouth and nostrils expand together: "Really?"
Chi Xiaochi: "Fake."
Lou Ying: "..."
Lucas: "… grass."
Chi Xiaochi found his car and threw the keys to Lucas: "He's not interested in people like me."
Lucas looked regretful: "Really? You two look so good, when he pulled you into the elevator..."
Chi Xiaochi leaned against the wall post and calmly pointed out Song Zhihuai's opinion of him: "He just thinks me is troublesome."
Luca was a little disappointed. After all, the CP that just stood up collapsed, which was not a good feeling.
He opened the car door for Chi Xiaochi: "Then what do you like, I will help you find it in the circle in the future."
Chi Xiaochi leaned on the comfortable soft leather seat, closed his eyes and said, "I don't like anyone."
Hearing this, Lou Ying's happy heart suddenly fell into the empty valley.
Lucas didn't give up and said, "Don't you have a fantasy object when you were doing something? Why don't you set up a template for me."
Chi Xiaochi closed his eyes and took out another cigarette from the cigarette case, as if he was missing someone, his expression gradually softened.
He sipped the cigarette holder with his dry lips and smiled vaguely, "I can't tell you."
The car drove away, leaving Lou Ying standing there.
After another unbearable sour feeling, Lou Ying could barely raise his head, chasing the direction where the car shadow disappeared.
From the clues over the years, Lou Ying can vaguely guess that Chi Xiaochi's orientation towards his lover seems to be different from that of most people. So he wasn't too surprised to hear him talk about it head-on.
He was surprised by his own reaction.
The soft flesh in his chest shrank uncomfortably, and a strong sense of insecurity enveloped him, making him unable to control himself, wanting to catch up, sitting next to Chi Xiaochi, asking him who he really likes, and whether he can What kind of person do you like.
In order to curb his abnormal emotions, he chose to stay.
Lou Ying looked at his hand, frowned and thought, what's wrong with me.
He lost his purpose for a while and didn't know where else he could go.
But standing here is too stupid.
Lou Ying turned his back to the direction the car was leaving, took two steps, and thought with no interest whether he should go back to the system.
Suddenly, his mind moved, and a thought flashed through his mind like an electric shock, and he could no longer move his feet.
Lou Ying suddenly turned around and looked in disbelief at the direction in which Chi Xiaochi's vehicle disappeared, her heart beating wildly.
… impossible.
How could he...
