Qi Chen and the director agreed to meet at 6:30 in the evening, but due to his personal habits, he arrived at the agreed place at 6:10.
As the name suggests, Zuiyuexuan is an antique restaurant. The dishes in it are bland, but the environment is very good and the privacy is very high. Many famous actors will choose this place to meet people.
It can not only reflect personal taste, but also comfortable and quiet.
The private room was reserved in advance, because it was not the first time he came here, Qi Chen did not let the waiter lead the way, and walked over by himself, but when he reached the door of the private room, he found that the door of the private room turned out to be empty. covered.
Even forgot to close the door of the private room, the waiter who cleaned the private room before must be very careless.
Qi Chen frowned and thought, and stretched out his hand to push the private room door open, but suddenly heard a low laugh coming from inside.
After a low laugh, a man's voice came into Qi Chen's ears: "Miss Lu specially invited me out, is it just to say this?"
"I originally wanted to apologize to President Zhao." Then came a woman's voice.
Qi Chen's memory is very good, and he has already heard the identities of these two people in just a few words. He raised his head and glanced at the names on the private room. The Magnolia Hall was indeed the private room he had reserved before.
Although he didn't know why the two appeared in the private room he had reserved, Qi Chen also knew that it was inappropriate for him to continue to eavesdrop on standing here, but for some reason, his heart was inexplicably itchy, and he didn't want to do this. Come in.
While he was hesitating, a familiar voice came from inside.
"Didn't Miss Lu apologize to me when I was on the set before? Do I look like someone who cares so much?" Su Yu rested her chin in one hand and held a cup of Biluochun in the other, smiling when she spoke. of.
Lu Manni, who was sitting across from him, wanted to gouge out his eyes directly. She made it clear on the phone before, but Zhao Qingsong deliberately asked about this, which showed that she was deliberately humiliating her!
However, this person is not something that she can provoke herself, even if she feels aggrieved, Lu Manni can only follow his meaning: "Zhao is joking, why do I think so? I was fortunate to film with Zhao before. , that's why I thought we'd have a meal together when I had time."
Saying that they were filming together, it was just an opponent's scene that lasted less than five minutes. This was the result of Lu Manni's pretentious proposition to add lines to herself.
Such an excuse is too far-fetched.
Qi Chen sneered in his heart, his sense of Lu Manni became worse. He clearly offended Zhao Qingsong before, but now he deliberately approached him under the pretext of apology. This woman is too utilitarian and too fickle. Bar
It was obviously none of his business at all, but Qi Chen felt a sigh of relief in his heart, which made him a little uncomfortable.
The conversation inside was still going on, but Qi Chen didn't intend to continue listening, not only because he felt a little uncomfortable, but also because the place he was standing was the private corridor after all, and other people might appear here at any time.
Taking a deep breath to adjust his mood, Qi Chen naturally pushed the door of the private room open, took two steps inside, only to see the two people sitting inside, his expressions became obviously surprised: "You..."
Before he finished speaking, he took two steps back, glanced at the name on the private room, and after making sure that he had not gone to the wrong place, he walked in again and said with a smile, "Mr. Zhao, Miss Lu, here you are. It's such a coincidence to meet you, did you also book the Magnolia Room?"
Whether it was his previous action of pushing the door in, or the tone of his speech at this time, it seemed very natural. If he hadn't known that this person was just outside the door, maybe even Su Yu would have been deceived by him.
This man deserves to be a national male god, his acting skills are really good, Su Yu thought out of time.
When Lu Manni first saw Qi Chen, she couldn't help but stunned for a while, and when she realized what he meant, she immediately turned to look at Su Yu, this private room was arranged by him.
Su Yu put down the teacup in his hand, raised his eyebrows and stood up: "Is this the Magnolia Hall? We booked the Chenyue Pavilion, but I didn't expect it to go wrong, but it is fate to meet Qi Daxing here. ?"
"I also think we are very destined to meet again so soon," Qi Chen smiled politely, but the words he said had a profound feeling, but then he brought the topic back to business, " The Chenyue Pavilion is next to the Magnolia Hall, so it's really easy to get it wrong."
Lu Manni followed and stood up, she looked at Qi Chen, and then at Su Yu, her eyes flashed slightly, and her face was full of apology: "Senior Qi, I'm really sorry about this, it's my fault for not asking Mr. Zhao before. Which private room is it, otherwise this kind of thing would not have happened.”
It was another sentence that was sincere and sincere on the surface, but actually shirk the responsibility. Su Yu couldn't help rolling his eyes when he heard it.
Qi Chen happened to see Su Yu's rolled eyes, and his sullen mood miraculously improved: "This is not a bad thing, if we hadn't gone to the wrong private room, we probably wouldn't have met today. Since there are so many Fate, why don't Mr. Zhao also stay and have a light meal together?"
"Come here for dinner, you should have an appointment, right?" Su Yu glanced at Qi Chen suspiciously, this person should just be polite, right? It's just that his acting is so good and he seems sincere.
"I asked Director Liu Mingzhen to have dinner here, but there is nothing serious to talk about, just chatting." Qi Chen said this, and it seemed that he was very sincere to let the two of them eat together.
Lu Manni, who was originally interested in having dinner with Qi Chen, her eyes lit up after hearing the three words "Liu Mingzhen", she pretended to be reserved, but in reality she interjected again boldly: "It really won't work like this. Does it bother you?"
Director Liu Mingzhen is a well-known director. Although most of the literary films she shoots are not very popular at the box office, the literary films she shoots have a good reputation.
Different from those literary and artistic films that make a fuss, Liu Mingzhen's films are often full of content, and can reach a certain level of ideological realm, but they are not simply praised, but they are very thought-provoking and introspective.
Such films may not have a high box office, but they often have a good reputation, and from the perspective of actors, such quality films are more likely to win awards.
Making money is one thing, but for actors, fame and heritage are equally important.
Whether there is strength or not requires certain standards to prove, even if the strength is the same, the winners and those who haven't won the award sound very different.
This is the entertainment industry.
For Lu Manni, who has just been reborn, getting to know another famous director is like an extra path. She is still very confident in her acting skills.
Qi Chen didn't feel good about Lu Manni, but she was with Zhao Qingsong after all, so she couldn't leave Zhao Qingsong alone, but drove her away.
Just when Qi Chen was about to answer this question, he heard Su Yu suddenly chuckle and said, "My company still has something to do, so I'll go back first, you guys have fun."
"Since you have reserved a private room, aren't you planning to eat here too?" Qi Chen said eagerly, only to realize that his tone didn't seem right after speaking, and added with a smile, "If Zhao always thinks about me The proposal is too abrupt, and we can continue with the previous arrangement."
Su Yu couldn't understand what Qi Chen was doing. His purpose today was to reduce Qi Chen's favorability towards Lu Manni. This incident shouldn't affect Qi Chen's senses towards him, right
If it really has an impact, it should be to let Qi Chen hate him along with him, so what's the situation now
"Mr. Zhao, since Senior Qi has already said so, why don't we have dinner with them?" Lu Manni cursed Su Yu's willful behavior and selfishness in her heart, and persuaded her with a good temper. She must not miss it. This chance!
Qi Chen didn't speak anymore, but looked at Su Yu intently, waiting for his answer.
Such eyes made Su Yu feel a little irritable, because it reminded him of Chu Shengyan, who would look at him with such focused and serious eyes when he expected a positive answer.
Su Yu, who didn't intend to stay, refused even more simply after she was in a bad mood: "No need, I'll go first."
After that, Su Yu picked up his jacket and walked straight out of the private room.
It was obvious that the other party just rejected his proposal to dine together, but at this moment, Qi Chen's heart skipped a beat, as if this person's departure would make him lose something important.
He didn't have time to think about where this feeling came from, his body had already made a decision, and he reached out and grabbed Su Yu's arm.
However, Su Yu's reaction was very fast, and he was thrown away almost at the moment he just touched the other party.
"Star Qi, is this going to do something to me?" Su Yu stared at Qi Chen with cold eyes, and the aura on his body was unrestrained. When he was in a bad mood, no one should think about it better.
Witnessing all this, Lu Manni stood by and was completely speechless, and she was even more frightened in her heart. What a terrible character she had offended, this aura was simply terrible!
Qi Chen's hand was still half-raised, as if he forgot to put it down. His eyes stared at Su Yu without blinking. The emotions flowing in his eyes were complicated and indistinguishable, like a huge vortex that could completely suck people in. .
No one could guess how his heart was beating violently under this seemingly calm and restrained look.
One after another, he almost broke through the obstacles in his chest, completely released the surging emotions, and drowned the whole world.
Su Yu saw that Qi Chen was silent and didn't want to continue wasting time here. He snorted coldly and turned to leave, but Qi Chen grabbed his wrist again.
Is this fucking over
Su Yu was completely furious, he threw his hand hard, trying to get rid of the opponent's restraint, but this time he failed to do so, Qi Chen's strength was amazing, as if he had exhausted all his strength.
"What the hell are you doing crazy?!" Su Yu stared at Qi Chen and asked sharply.
Qi Chen's eyes were still as deep and calm as the sea, but his voice was obviously hoarse: "I found it, it's you."
