I didn't understand what was going on, but Xuanxuan kept winking at me, gesturing for me to sit in the driver's seat.
The two of them were faster, one sat in the back seat, and the other got into the passenger seat. I had no choice but to sit in the driver's seat obediently, plug in the key, and turned around and asked Liang Sheng, "Do you really want me to drive?"
Liang Sheng took out his laptop from his briefcase, looked at me calmly, and replied, "Otherwise, Xuanxuan will leave."
I shifted my gaze to Xuanxuan's face, and Xuanxuan immediately started shaking her head and hands together.
Liang Sheng said suddenly: "If you can safely let a person drive who has only driven twice but had three traffic accidents in three years after receiving a driver's license, then."
Feeling ashamed, I asked Xuanxuan: "Is he talking about you?"
Xuanxuan immediately flashed her eyes and disguised herself as an ignorant little white rabbit.
"Then let me drive." I turned the key and muttered: "I'm better than you. I only had one traffic accident after driving three times."
"What?"
"What?"
Two voices sounded almost at the same time, with the same surprise, one with a very high pitch and the other with a very low tone.
I stuck out my tongue, started the car, and calmly held the steering wheel under the hot gazes of two people. The car slowly drove out of the parking lot, but unexpectedly stalled when climbing a hill.
"The automatic transmission can also turn off, no one else." Xuanxuan was in admiration.
"It's already more than five meters higher than I expected, which is pretty good." Liang Sheng said calmly.
What did he mean, it was five meters farther than he expected? Does that mean he thought I should turn off the engine as soon as I started it? !
I turned around, glared at him hard, and started again.
I must stand up for myself today and not let him look down upon me.
I stepped on the accelerator, but I felt that the starting speed was too fast. I was so frightened that I immediately stepped on the brake. No surprise, the engine stalled again.
Xuanxuan laughed heartily.
Liang Sheng frowned slightly.
A security guard passing by came up to me and asked, "Do you need help?"
What is shame? This is the biggest shame, okay
Apparently hearing a faint smile from the back row, the security guard immediately stood up straight and nodded: "Hello, Mr. Liang."
"I'll do it." Liang Sheng closed the notebook and put it aside, pretending to open the door and get out of the car. I immediately reached out and said, "No need."
Give me one last chance and I will definitely impress you.
Liang Sheng didn't go to pick up the computer. He just sat upright and looked at me leisurely. The half-smile at the corner of his mouth was obviously waiting for a good show.
The security guard stepped aside consciously, and I stepped on the accelerator to go uphill with all my strength.
"Awesome!" Xuanxuan applauded in a pretentious manner.
I let out a long breath, luckily I didn't drop the chain again, and glanced at Liang Sheng in the rearview mirror. His eyes were very thick, and he happened to look at me, with a smile in his eyes. Whatever I say, I will definitely impress him and turn him into a serf and sing again.
The car drove more and more steadily, and gradually I was able to relax and chat.
I asked Liang Sheng: "Why don't you drive today?"
Liang Sheng looked at the computer screen intently, with a pair of deep eyes shining brightly, and his thin lips opened: "There is still some work to be done, just a little while."
"Okay." I glanced at him from time to time and stopped talking.
Xuanxuan was poking at her phone at the side, probably chatting with Chu Jin. The two of them were just like you and me, almost the lovers I imagined.
Liang Sheng and I are different.
Since Liang Sheng and I confirmed our relationship, apart from the feeling of love when we kissed, we haven’t had any extra contact on weekdays. Maybe it’s because of his work, but sometimes he doesn’t take the initiative to contact me all day long. He and I We also don’t eat, go shopping, or watch movies like ordinary lovers do. It seems like the only time he and I have dinner alone is at the beach. Since then, Liang Sheng and I have hardly dated in private.
I glanced at the rearview mirror again, and my heart skipped a beat because he happened to be looking at me as well, with a particularly ambiguous and scheming look. I hurriedly turned away, thinking something was wrong, why should I feel so guilty? If I wanted to see it, just see it openly, why should I be secretive? So I turned my eyes back again, and Liang Sheng still looked at me with that unfathomable gaze.
Before I could speak, Liang Sheng's thin lips opened: "If you look at me like this, I can't work with peace of mind."
My face flushed, Xuanxuan raised her eyebrows at me, quietly turned her face away, pretending to be asleep, but her hands were still typing quickly by her side.
"Who's looking at you? I'm just looking at the traffic behind me. If there's a car following too closely, I'm afraid someone will chase me." I stammered to explain, how could such a bad excuse fool me? Guo Liang Sheng, I was so embarrassed that I wanted to jump out of the car.
Liang Sheng smiled silently, lowered his eyes, and continued to devote himself to his work.
People with thin lips are said to be heartless, but I wonder if Liang Sheng would be.
The place to eat was at a restaurant near the Guomao International Trade Center. Jingjing had reserved the largest private room in advance, which could accommodate three tables and seat thirty people. Additional seats could be added as appropriate. There were a total of thirty-eight people in the crew this time. Except for a few people who were unable to come because of something else, the other thirty or so people were all present. The scene was so lively.
I was supposed to sit at the external staff seat, but Xuanxuan had to pull me to sit with her, which was the main table where Liang Sheng and the directors were.
Director Wang glanced at me, which meant that it was inappropriate for me to sit at this table, and it would be a shame if I showed it to other colleagues. However, Xuanxuan insisted that I sit next to her, and also cast her eyes to Liang Sheng who was standing aside. Liang Sheng's eyes were light, and they passed over my face without any trace, and he said calmly: "Since we are here to celebrate, don't be restrained, just do whatever you want. sit."
His words were obvious, and Director Wang couldn't say anything more.
In such an occasion, it is inevitable that there will be a lot of compliments and flattery. The employees will flatter the actors, the actors will flatter the director, and the director will flatter Liang Sheng. After a few drinks, Liang Sheng's butt must have been swollen.
As the lead actor, Chen Shulei is of course sitting with us. Among the others, apart from the assistant director and two producers, the one I know is the male lead Ling Xiao.
It is obvious to all that there is a conflict between Chen Shulei and Director Wang. When they were seated, they also deliberately kept their distance from each other. Not to mention when they were toasting, Director Wang thanked everyone and slapped a bottle of beer in a circle to express his gratitude. Even I paid tribute but I only skipped Chen Shulei. Chen Shulei didn't seem to be surprised, but she immediately retaliated. She also picked up the wine glass and said thank you to everyone for taking care of them.
When it was my turn, she suddenly paused, glanced at Liang Sheng, then raised her glass to me and said: "Shen Yan, there has been some unpleasantness between us. I hope you don't take it to heart. I have a bad temper and everyone has a bad temper." I know, but I don’t hold grudges. I forget about the quarrels and quarrels. I’ll toast you with this drink. If possible, we can continue to be friends.”
My hand was already holding the cup, but I didn't raise it immediately. What she said made me a little confused. Continue to be friends? It seems that she and I have never been friends, so why should I continue talking about it.
I don’t know if her words were inappropriate or if she meant something. Since she spoke like this in front of everyone, I had no choice but to smile along with her.
She served me white wine, so naturally I had to accompany her. She said she drank it in one gulp to show her sincerity, so I had no choice but to raise my head and drink it all in one gulp. I thought it would be just this once and forget about it after drinking. Unexpectedly, Chen Shulei seemed to want to get me drunk. She always found various reasons to drink with me. In front of the director team and Liang Sheng, I was too embarrassed to refuse. Even Xuanxuan wanted to take my place but Chen Shulei stopped her. I had no choice but to bite the bullet and drink one cup after another.
If I hadn't been a good drinker, I would have collapsed within three glasses of even a medium-strength white wine.
Chen Shulei's good drinking ability is because she often goes to bars and drinks; I think my good drinking ability is a family inheritance. Even if I don't drink much, six or seven drinks will always be no problem.
After four cups in a row, my stomach was already burning. Xuanxuan pulled me and whispered in my ear: "Why don't you stop drinking. The movie is finished anyway, so there is no need to give her more face."
Others don’t know why Chen Shulei was drinking with me, but I know it very well. She just couldn't swallow the sigh in her heart and wanted to win a little bit from me in this way, but she didn't expect that I may seem weak but have such a good drinking capacity.
During the fifth cup, Chen Shulei suddenly said: "Shen Yan, this cup thanks you for being by my side when I was most sad and sad. I respect you." At the end, he added, "I remember you broke up with your ex-boyfriend. You It’s been so long, and you don’t want to find another one, how about I introduce you to one? Ling Xiao, just Ling Xiao.”
She patted Ling Xiao on the shoulder and smiled happily. It's also a bit alcoholic.
I was about to refuse when the wine glass in my hand was suddenly taken away. I looked back and saw Yang Xiao drinking the glass of wine for me.
"Yang Xiao, you..." I wanted to say that it was inappropriate for him to do this. After all, he was in front of so many actors and directors. Those who knew knew that Yang Xiao was just kind-hearted and couldn't bear to see me being bullied. Those who didn't know thought I was What other relationship does it have with him
Yang Xiao spoke without hesitation: "Sister Shu Lei, how many more drinks do you want with Ana Shen? Tell me, I drank it all for her in one go."
As soon as I said this, I immediately turned my attention to Liang Sheng's face. His eyes were very dark, but at this moment, his expression became calmer. He just looked away, lowered his eyes, and took a sip of wine.
But I can feel that he is angry.
This time I was really angry.
I also feel that what Yang Xiao did was inappropriate, especially what he said was more likely to be misunderstood. I stood up quickly, took back my wine glass, and refused: "No, I drink my own wine."
I did not explain, because I knew that no matter what I said at this moment, it would be too strong to cover up the truth.
Just when I was in a dilemma, Xuanxuan suddenly stood up, took Yang Xiao's arm and said, "My dear, why are you here? I've already had four drinks. I'm so anxious."
