The windows shook a few times before they stopped.

"Don't your neighbors have any objections to your agent coming over?" Li Xuan raised his hand and pressed his temple.

Sheng Min sighed softly. He had been trying to stop Li Xuan, but the other party didn't listen to him at all: "I never talk to him like this."

"Then he has to adapt now." Li Xuan pinched his neck and tilted his head twice. His throat was almost broken from dealing with Zhang Zhihua. Just as he was about to pour another glass of water, his vision went dark and he sat back down.

"What's wrong with you?" Sheng Min quickly held his arm.

Li Xuan rested for a while and waved his hand: "It's okay, I'm hungry and dizzy. Do you have low blood sugar?"

"A bit anemic." Sheng Min found a can of Sophora japonica honey from the refrigerator, made a cup of honey water for him, tested the temperature and handed it to him, "It's a little hot, drinkable, drink slowly. I'll order takeout, what do you want to eat?"

Li Xuan glanced at the phone interface. It would take more than half an hour to deliver anything. He couldn't help but frowned: "Do you have any food at home?"

Sheng Min shook his head apologetically: "I was filming recently and didn't stay at home much, so I emptied the refrigerator. I just checked and there were only a few eggs left."

Li Xuan thought for a moment and said, "I have it." He pointed to the schoolbag on the sofa and said, "There are also three bags of instant noodles. Do you have a bowl?"

There are still bowls, and the kitchen utensils and seasonings are all complete.

Sheng Min's house faces south. Looking out from the kitchen window, you can see endless green mountains. The sun has risen, but the moon has not yet set. It is shrouded in a faint halo and hangs in a corner of the sky.

Sheng Min only used the dough, prepared the seasoning again, found a frying pan, beat the remaining eggs together to make an omelet, cut it into strips and spread it on the dough.

Too lazy to take the food to the dining room, the two of them sat at the sink and had a reluctant breakfast.

"Zhang Zhihua is just like that, he has a bad temper. You will know it after a while. There is no need to quarrel with him." Sheng Min picked up a chopstick of noodles, "It will be difficult to get along with him after a quarrel. He is probably confused today and has not reacted. When he comes to his senses, he might..."

Li Xuan sneered, "Can he still embarrass you? I checked, in your company, apart from those veteran artists, you are the most famous. As your agent, you used to have four artists under you at most, but later some of them terminated their contracts or retired from the industry, and now you are the only one under you. Your ability is not that great, and your popularity has basically nothing to do with him. So now he is relying on you to make money. It doesn't make sense for someone who collects money to bully someone who makes money."

Li Xuan glanced at him and said, "But I'm also curious. I see that your fans are very dissatisfied with him. Has your company ever thought about changing your agent?"

Sheng Min didn't expect that he could find so much information in just a short while and remember it all. After a while, he said, "He is a relative of the big boss."

"Is he the boss's father?" Li Xuan interrupted him.

Sheng Min frowned. Li Xuan picked out the green onions from the noodles. Dehydrated vegetables always tasted strange. "Not a direct relative, right? I remember the chairman of your company's surname was Zeng... Is his wife's surname Zhang? In-laws? Brother-in-law?"

"That's about the same." Sheng Min said softly.

"That shouldn't be the case." Li Xuan put down his chopsticks and took a sip of water. "He's still a relative. If you want to take care of him, it's much easier to just give him money. If you're still confused, forget it. You're the company's cash cow now. If the boss isn't a fool, there's no need to embarrass you on this matter... Have you mentioned it?"

"What?"

"Change agent."

Sheng Min was silent for a moment and shook his head. Li Xuan looked at his expression and suddenly smiled, but not happily: "In fact, you know it yourself. If you insist on changing it and fight for it, you can still change it."

"It's too troublesome." Sheng Min frowned, and seeing that Li Xuan was still looking at him, he thought for a moment and said, "Just bear with it. Even if we fight and change, the result may not be better. It's better to keep the status quo."

Li Xuan disagreed: "This is not a good habit. If you can bear it, you don't have to ask him to collect your body so early in the morning."

Sheng Min lowered his eyes, and a strange face was reflected on the marble countertop: "I asked him to collect the body because I didn't know who else to ask. And it would be more convenient for him to deal with it. But I want to commit suicide, and it has nothing to do with anyone. I'm also sorry for dragging you into this. Before we are exchanged, I will try my best to stay alive and not cause you any trouble."

"That's not what I'm talking about now." Li Xuan pinched his nose. "Of course it's best if you think so. But I can't bear him... Does your agent have hyperthyroidism? His physique is not right either."

He frowned and asked seriously. Sheng Min pulled the corner of his mouth and didn't respond: "You postponed the interview, so can you go to the commercial shoot on Thursday?"

"You want me to go?" Li Xuan raised his eyebrows, his tone was unremarkable, "No wonder you said you were my assistant, so you can follow me when it's convenient for me to work? I don't understand you. You don't have to be so dedicated in this situation, right?"

Sheng Min took a bite of noodles but didn't eat it: "If I don't go to shoot, the company and the brand will have to negotiate a lot of things, and a lot of people's work will have to be done again."

"What's that got to do with you?"

"Don't cause trouble for others." Sheng Min said seriously. This was the second time he said this today. Li Xuan's eyebrows moved, "If you were dead, you wouldn't be able to shoot either."

"I didn't know we were going to shoot a commercial yesterday." Sheng Min said, "Interviews are different. If I die, they can just edit my old materials and make a commemorative video to cover one episode."

Li Xuan didn't know what to say: "You mean, if you knew, you wouldn't die?"

Sheng Min smiled softly: "If you didn't die, you should still go and shoot. You said last night that we have to pretend. You cooperate with me, and I will cooperate with you... By the way, I don't know what your situation is, what do you need me for?"

"I..." Li Xuan frowned, hesitated for a while and didn't say anything else, "I don't need it for now, I'll talk about it later."

His tone was calm, but the look on his face was not pleasant, but rather a bit annoyed. He seemed not to want to talk about his own affairs, and Sheng Min didn't know why, so he didn't ask.

"Let's eat first." Li Xuan was silent for a moment and changed the subject. "I'll wash the dishes after we finish eating. You clean up and change your clothes. Let's go to the hospital."
