Isolated from the world and bored at home for a full week, Xie Zhuxing went out. The first thing he did was to bleach the gray hair color of his grandma who had the same style as someone back to black.
The hair stylist who knew him very well asked strangely: "Why didn't Leo come together this time?"
He replied: "We won't come together anymore."
The hair stylist saw that his complexion was not good, so he didn't ask any more, started to do his hair, chatted a little, and recommended him to use an eye cream to remove dark circles.
His dark circles are too heavy, almost black and blue, as if he hasn't slept for several days.
Xie Zhuxing didn't listen at all, just gave a polite "hmm" twice, the hair stylist thought he had eaten Amway, and said: "Apply a thick layer of this eye cream before going to bed, and wear a steam eye mask, the effect will be doubled. Steam eye mask It’s Kao’s that’s easier to use.”
Xie Zhuxing's heart was pierced, the dark circles under his eyes became heavier, and he lingered: "... oh."
After dyeing his hair and going to the company, he will go out today because Liu Congming sent him a message saying that he has a job to talk to him about.
When he arrived at Liu Congming's office, Liu Congming didn't look embarrassed.
Not being stupid, he asked, "Is that the superhero movie?"
Liu Congming nodded.
Xie Zhuxing said: "Push it, I won't act."
Liu Congming persuaded him: "Don't worry about anything else, let's talk about this movie. You pushed it this time. If there is a similar opportunity in the future, people will come to you again? Don't be too impulsive."
Xie Zhuxing said: "It's not just acting on the spur of the moment... If you say you can't act, you won't act. I'm not kidding."
Liu Congming was very helpless, and said: "Duan Yikun is coming back soon. The former captain of NEX is now the first brother of his studio. From appearance to acting, he is in the same way as you. Any opportunities in the future will have to be robbed." You also know that Duan Yikun and I are not at the same level at all. When the time comes, we will really compete, that is, people eat meat and we drink soup. Now this movie is the best opportunity. If you act, you will be a movie cafe in minutes , I can beat Duan Yikun's brother by several blocks in no time. I won't force you, but you must think clearly, in this circle, if you make a wrong step, you will make a wrong step, and it's too late to regret it."
It's not that Xie Zhuxing doesn't understand these situations, but he has his own stubbornness.
"I know you're doing it for my own good, but I can't act in this movie." He said, "I know myself, my qualifications are not that good, the film crew will come to me, and it's not me."
Liu Congming knew what he was talking about, and said, "It's not that the film studio is out of their wits. Could it be that they are joking with an investment of hundreds of millions? No matter what they are looking for, in the final analysis, you can satisfy them. You are just trying to make ends meet."
But Xie Zhuxing said, "I'm just trying to get into a dead end."
Liu Congming: "...Then why don't you come out quickly?"
Xie Zhuxing said indifferently: "If I can come out, there is no need to break up with Wang Chao."
Liu Congming didn't dare to mention Wang Chao's name from the beginning to the end, and now he was relieved to hear him mention it, and said in a roundabout way: "You two are too young, you are trying to make a fool of yourself here, and he can't find anyone anymore. His eldest brother's secretary called to ask for a long vacation, saying that he was going out to play, but he didn't say where he went, but luckily he has no plans to release a film recently, otherwise it would be really bad."
Xie Zhuxing's eyes wandered for a moment, and he said, "Don't tell me any news about him from now on."
Liu Congming said, if you don't tell me, you won't talk about it. Looking at you, sooner or later you have to take the initiative to inquire.
But he didn't say it. Everyone who is in a relationship feels that he is a lover. No one wants to be bullied by others. Any preaching and encouragement are meaningless. Some things can only be figured out by oneself.
Xie Zhuxing, who hadn't figured it out yet, said: "I really don't want to act in this play. I didn't want anything from him when we were together, and now we're separated, I don't even want to."
Liu Congming had no choice but to say, "Okay, then I'll push it for you. There is a charity fund for left-behind children who wants to invite you to do a promotional activity, saying that you have a good image in the parent-child program, and there is no notification fee. It just so happens that you dyed your hair back too, are you going?"
There is nothing to hesitate about this, Xie Zhuxing said: "Go."
This activity is going to the rural areas of Hebei, the impoverished mountainous areas deep in the Taihang Mountains, and the transportation is not very convenient.
When Xie Zhuxing followed the people from the TV station around the Taihang Mountains, Wang Chao and Chi Lidong were also crossing the mountains.
After passing the Yulin Snow Mountain, which is more than 5,000 altitudes above sea level, Wang Chao didn't feel any altitude sickness. He didn't expect that he would pass the winding road from Xindu Bridge to Batang. They all vomited out.
As a last resort, Chi Lidong stopped the car and told him to go to the side of the road to rest for a while, then he lifted the hood to fill the car with water.
There are a lot of cars on this section of the road, and from time to time one or a few cars will whizz past, and some enthusiastic car owners will slow down and stop, thinking their car is broken down, and asking if they need help.
The sky is so blue, the clouds are so white, and even the people are so beautiful.
Only Wang Chao, who had just vomited bile, felt extremely miserable. He sat on the side of the road bitterly, and there were small animals in the wild grass next to him. He stomped his feet, and a few groundhogs scattered around. Running away, he hurriedly took out his mobile phone to take a picture, excitedly clicked to share, and snapped his fingers, who did he want to send it to? Really frustrating.
Chi Lidong came over, knelt down and asked him, "Is it better?"
He didn't want to get in the car, he picked the phone case with his fingernails and said, "Sit for a while."
Chi Lidong said: "After driving for another half an hour or so, the road will be flat and it will be fine."
Wang Chao answered absent-mindedly: "Yes."
Chi Lidong looked around and said: "It's very beautiful here, send a photo to your brother, and report that you are safe by the way."
Wang Chao said: "Okay." He sent the photo just now to Wang Qi.
Wang Qi replied to him: "Pay attention to safety and listen to your elder brother Chi."
Chi Lidong also saw it, and said with a smile: "Your brother is so busy and still texts you in seconds, it really hurts you."
When he was on the road again, he turned on the music and hummed along, looking very happy.
Wang Chao sat in the passenger seat expressionless, wondering what Chi Lidong was happy about.
He's still sick from motion sickness, and his mood is even worse. Why can't he help but think of Xie Zhuxing? Think about what this person is doing, have you ever thought about him, have you looked for him, have you ever regretted breaking up with him.
But he knew the answer was no.
Xie Zhuxing will never regret what he has thought up, and he will always regret it, and it has always been only him.
Then think about it, don't think about it, okay
… no.
Chi Lidong: "... I know you are suffering from motion sickness, hey, don't bump your head!"
Xie Zhuxing and his party arrived at the destination, and people from the foundation were already waiting for them. As soon as Xie Zhuxing got out of the car, he saw a familiar face.
Yan Jiajia greeted him generously, and jokingly said, "I heard you were coming yesterday, and today I put on light makeup."
I haven't seen her for almost a year. She is still very thin, but she is not the same as the starving one before. She is much healthier, and the logo of the foundation is printed on her clothes.
Xie Zhuxing was so surprised that he couldn't speak.
A lot of people came from the TV station, and there were more than a dozen staff members from the foundation, plus Xie Zhuxing and the assistant team of two other artists. The scene was a mess, and the shooting time was very tight. Greetings, the filming work lasted until after 9:00 pm, and there will be half a day of filming tomorrow. Xie Zhuxing and others were arranged to live in the newly built rural primary school, and then everyone had dinner together, and Yan Jiajia came to him.
Xie Zhuxing didn't let her into the room because she was afraid of melon fields and plums. She stood on the campus and could see all around, but she was far away from others, so no one could hear the conversation.
He asked her: "Why are you here? I got together with some classmates during the Chinese New Year. They said that you were going to get married after you stopped being a model. I thought, thought..." He thought he couldn't come out.
Yan Jiajia laughed and said, "Think I've caught a rich man? I've quit modeling a long time ago. I've been in this foundation for almost three months. My job is to observe the children waiting to be helped, to see their family conditions and personal conduct, and each All aspects have to be observed, the donations received by the foundation have to be spent where they should be spent, and to help the people who should be helped the most, otherwise can you donate with confidence?"
Xie Zhuxing: "... this job is very meaningful."
Yan Jiajia was a little embarrassed and said: "But it can be regarded as a rich man. The person in charge of the foundation received you this afternoon, the one wearing glasses, he is my husband. He only received the certificate last month, and he hasn't taken care of the banquet yet. , so I didn’t inform you.”
Xie Zhuxing remembered that person. He had an above-average appearance, spoke clearly, and did things neatly. He was neither humble nor overbearing when communicating with TV stations or artist teams. He was a good person and excellent, but? "I didn't expect that at all..." he said.
Yan Jiajia said: "Didn't you think I would find a poor ghost in the end?"
Xie Zhuxing: "..."
Yan Jiajia laughed at him: "I didn't expect you to find someone like that in the end, a guy who talks more than me."
Xie Zhuxing hesitated first, then thought about it, no, how did she know they were together? Thinking about it again, forget it, no matter how she knows, it's all divided anyway.
Yan Jiajia saw that his face changed again and again, so she stopped smiling, and asked concerned: "What's wrong with you two?"
Xie Zhuxing forced a smile and said, "Let's not talk about this, does your husband know who I am?"
Yan Jiajia said easily: "I know, I told him already. What happened to you and that bastard?"
Xie Zhuxing didn't want to talk about it, didn't want to mention Xiao Wangba.
Yan Jiajia saw the clue and said: "When I was still a flat model last year, Xiao Wangba came to see me."
Xie Zhuxing was surprised and said, "He's looking for you... why?"
Yan Jiajia smiled awkwardly, and said: "He gave me a ring, saying that you bought it to propose to me before we broke up, but he said there was no place to put it. Since it was bought for me, I still have to give it to me."
Xie Zhuxing: "..." And lied to him that he sold it second-hand
Yan Jiajia said: "He also said that whoever owns it belongs to him. The ring belongs to me and you belong to him. Don't take advantage of anyone else."
Xie Zhuxing: "..." What the hell.
Yan Jiajia said: "I was confused at the time, isn't this guy an idiot? How could anyone give a ring to his ex-girlfriend for his male ticket? In the end, he said, he just thinks it's very pitiful for you to have a ring that you can't give away. I just want to send it for you."
Xie Zhuxing's heart trembled.
Yan Jiajia smiled again, and said: "I asked him, are you afraid that I will pester Xiao Xie again if I don't give up? He kept saying that he is not afraid, and asked me after a while, how much will it cost to not pester Xie Zhuxing? This little bastard, It's a stupid bastard."
Xie Zhuxing also wanted to laugh, but he didn't.
