Ji Sheng waited at the elevator entrance, and when the lights came on, Xie Xuanming, who was soaked all over, got out of the elevator door.
He looked at Ji Sheng gently with his eyes: "Brother Ji."
In response, Ji Sheng angrily threw a big towel on him.
When the two entered the door, Ji Sheng began to chatter.
"What do you think? At this point, it's still raining heavily, and you actually came downstairs to me." Ji Sheng handed the towel over, "I'll be photographed."
"The crew doesn't have my scene tonight... At this point, people who are taken into the dormitory will be filmed." Xie Xuanming looked at Ji Sheng without blinking, "I thought I would be filmed, why did you let me in?"
"Brother, kid." Ji Sheng pulled the towel angrily, and rudely wiped the water off the face of someone who was standing there like a fool. He pulled him up and pushed him into the bathroom, "Otherwise I'll let you shower downstairs? Are you a fool? Why wait for such a heavy rain? Why come here?"
Xie Xuanming was obediently pushed to the door by him, and supported the frame: "Because I'm worried about you."
"Worried about me?" Ji Sheng was stunned for a moment, and then said with some amusement, "Don't worry, your brother and I are fine, make your movie well, do your public relations, try to win some awards, and swell KUZI's face. "
Xie Xuanming looked at him quietly: "Did you and Sheng Kongzhi say the same?"
"Him?" Ji Sheng laughed loudly, "What qualifications does he have to win the award? He doesn't study acting, but he has a specialization in art!"
"You know that's not what I'm talking about." Xie Xuanming stood up straighter, water dripped from his forehead and wiped out the water stains on the ground. He still looked at Ji Sheng, his eyes were like a cold light through the mist.
Ji Sheng stopped laughing: "You know I don't want to talk about this topic."
The light dimmed, Xie Xuanming lowered his eyes, with drops of rain on his eyelashes.
The two were quiet for a while, Ji Sheng sighed, and then pushed him to the bathroom: "Go take a bath, if you don't change your clothes, you will catch a cold."
Ji Sheng's judgment was correct, there were indeed many reporters or illegitimate students lurking downstairs in the dormitory, and there might be proxy filmmakers.
Some of these people went back because of the heavy rain and late at night, and the remaining ones who were dedicated and nestled in the pouring rain successfully took photos of Xie Xuanming entering Jisheng's dormitory building in the middle of the night.
Going to a friend's house to spend the night was a normal thing, but combined with Xie Xuanming's confusing sexuality reported by the media, this matter became intriguing.
The news in the entertainment industry is always well-informed. Early in the morning, people from all walks of life gathered downstairs in the dormitory. Ji Sheng opened the curtains, glanced at the densely packed crowd downstairs, covered his head with pain, and rubbed his temples.
"Where is the nanny car parked?" He turned to ask Xie Xuanming.
"On the side of the road, security guards do not allow unfamiliar vehicles to enter the parking lot."
On the side of the road, there is still about ten meters away from the gate, and there is a high probability that you will have to pass through a section of "zombie siege".
"Are there security guards here?"
"No."
"..."
"Let's go, I'll take you there." Ji Sheng turned his head and glanced at the crowd through the gap, and said decisively.
I'm not a kid to protect.
Xie Xuanming watched Ji Sheng put on his coat and mask and change his shoes in one go, and lightly licked his tiger teeth: "Okay."
Three minutes later, Ji Sheng took Xie Xuanming out the door. Ji Sheng was wearing a hood with a mask covering his lower eyelids, while Xie Xuanming was wearing a peaked cap, covering two-thirds of his small face.
The announcement of the two's identities that they wanted to hide made the illegitimate reporter cheer up in an instant, and they ran to gather together, surrounded the two and yelled and asked some incomprehensible questions.
The crowd is crowded, and physical collisions happen from time to time.
Ji Sheng clasped Xie Xuanming's shoulder with his backhand, protecting him as he walked forward.
Halfway there, someone tripped him, Ji Sheng didn't stand still, and staggered forward, Xie Xuanming paused for half a second, quickly flipped his hands over to grab him, from being covered by Ji Sheng to walking with Ji Sheng .
The two broke through many obstacles and finally came to the nanny's car.
The security at the gate responded and helped to keep the crowd one meter away.
Ji Sheng opened the door, and Xie Xuanming jumped into the nanny's car lightly. As soon as he sat down, Ji Sheng stepped on the side of the car and leaned in.
He reached out and brushed away Xie Xuanming's hair that was blocking his vision, and pulled off his mask: "Shoot well, I'm going back."
After a brief farewell, Ji Sheng leaned back, ready to retreat.
His hood was ripped askew, and his hair hung loose in front of his cheeks.
"Wait a minute." Xie Xuanming said.
"Ah?" Ji Sheng didn't hear what he said, backed up and slammed on the brakes, and got into the car again.
Xie Xuanming took off his peaked cap and put it on Ji Sheng's head.
He brushed aside a strand of forehead hair sticking to Ji Sheng's cheek, and said softly, "Okay."
Ji Sheng tried his best to squeeze back into the dormitory wearing a peaked cap, and received a call from Li Tan as soon as he entered the door.
"Xie Xuanming came to your place?" Li Tan cut to the chase.
"Ah yes." Ji Sheng said, "How do you know that?"
"Someone posted a picture on Weibo."
"So fast?" Ji Sheng had a headache, "Don't they fix it?"
"There are still people broadcasting live."
"..."
"Is Xie Xuanming still with you?" Li Tan asked.
"Just left, what's the matter?"
"..." Li Tan was silent for a while, "It's okay, I wanted to discuss something with Xiao Xie, so let's just leave."
He paused, and asked, "You know there are a lot of rumors about his sexuality now, right?"
Ji Sheng: …
He also knew that the rumor was indeed true.
Ji Sheng: "I know, it's the black material made by KUZI."
"It doesn't matter who made it." Li Tan said, "The important thing is that he has a bad reputation now, but you don't avoid suspicion and just bump into it..."
As Li Tan was talking, he suddenly paused: "Wait a minute, I have something to do here, I will call you later."
Li Tan hung up the phone, Ji Sheng took off his hat, threw it on the table, and rubbed his hair.
He really doesn't like a life where every action is restricted and guesswork.
Li Tan's phone call didn't come through for a long time, Ji Sheng called Ji Yueming's hospital during this period, to make sure that the nurse he had hired had already started work, and also confirmed that Ji Yueming's condition was stable, so he ended the call with some peace of mind.
Just as the phone call ended, Li Tan happened to call again.
"The legal department has something to deal with." Li Tan asked after explaining, "Have you read the public opinion on Weibo?"
"Did not have time."
"The public opinion situation is not bad. The fans have controlled the field, but the wind direction is a bit strange on the side of the passers-by. After the public relations department held a meeting to discuss it, they have an idea."
"What do you think?" Ji Sheng asked.
"We plan to use this matter to hype CP." Li Tan showed off.
"Huh?" Ji Sheng thought he heard it wrong, "Xiao Xie and I? Hype CP?? Aren't we both male?"
"When you two got together to make out, why didn't you think you were both men?" Li Tan couldn't hold back his sarcasm, "If I knew that looking at the photos of dirty private life would give me a heart attack, I would feel that the top of my head would turn green."
Hearing the sarcasm in his words, Ji Sheng frowned a little offended, and his tone was a bit blunt: "Guan Shengkong knows what's going on, I took a friend of the same sex to stay overnight, and it's even related to my private life."
"Who knows." Li Tan said, "The media thinks you are unclean, and the public thinks you are unclean. How can you prove that you are clean? Instead of letting others grab your wool and earn your traffic money, it is better to turn passive into active. Use rumors generously as benefits."
Li Tan said clearly and logically, Ji Sheng was silent for a while, "I still don't want to do this."
"I guessed it." Li Tan said without surprise, "But this is indeed a rare 'good' public relations method, which is good for you and Xiao Xie.
"I have a question." When he mentioned Xie Xuanming, Ji Sheng suddenly thought of something, "Have you discussed it with Xiao Xie? What did they say?"
"The public relations department contacted, and the situation is a bit complicated." Li Tan said, "Xie Xuanming's company quite agreed, but Xie Xuanming himself refused."
"Rejected." Ji Sheng was taken aback, and whispered to himself, "Why..."
"What?" He said in a low voice, but Li Tan didn't hear it.
"It's okay." Ji Sheng didn't want to continue, but said, "It happens that I also think this method is inappropriate, so if you reject it, just reject it."
"You know that I came here to persuade you not to be so stubborn, right?" Li Tan was helpless.
"Then you should know that I'm also a deadhead." Ji Sheng smiled lowly.
"...That's right." Li Tan compromised, "Then I'll ask the PR department to refute the rumors directly... How is your mother?"
"pretty good."
"That's good, the tour will start the day after tomorrow. Come on and get ready, I'll hang up first."
"Well, yes." Ji Sheng said, "Bye."
Ji Sheng's popularity is still high. Even though I appealed not to buy high-priced tickets on Weibo, the ticket bank including VIP tickets was still empty in seconds when the tickets were sold. Also expensive grade.
After repeatedly confirming with Hemei that they were not the ones who speculated on the fare, Ji Sheng sent several microblogs to warn fans not to spend money wrongly... But the effect is a matter of different opinions.
At the end of the first tour, Sheng Kongzhi rarely called Ji Sheng.
"Today is the first tour, congratulations." Sheng Kongzhi just finished acting class, his tone was exhausted.
"There's nothing to congratulate." Ji Sheng said, "Life forces it."
Sheng Kongzhi paused: "Is it going well?"
"It went well."
"Auntie how is it?"
"pretty good."
The two came and went several times, Sheng Kongzhi smiled and said, "I really want to..."
Before he could finish speaking, the violent doorbell suddenly rang, and the sharp sound interrupted the words.
The sound was so loud that Ji Sheng even noticed, "What's wrong?"
"It's okay..." Sheng Kongzhi walked to the door.
He met Maoyan, remained silent on the other end of the phone for a while, and said, "It's an illegitimate student."
Ji Sheng frowned: "An illegitimate student got involved in the training place? Isn't it closed?"
"Hmm." Sheng Kongzhi said, "I don't know how I got in."
"Ask the security to take him away, or call the police directly."
Sheng Kongzhi didn't speak.
Ji Sheng waited for a while, then frowned: "Are you listening?"
"I'm listening..." Sheng Kongzhi hurriedly replied, "I don't think...it's necessary, I'll open the door and talk to him, and let him go. After all, I'm still a fan, and I'm still a child..."
"What are you thinking?" Ji Sheng said harshly, "Bastards are not fans, you think about them, and you will only be hurt by yourself."
"I know." Sheng Kongzhi's voice was helpless, and a little stiff, "But...forget it, you don't understand these things."
"What does this have to do with whether I understand or not?" Ji Sheng was a little annoyed, the doorbell was still ringing, and it was very harsh. He wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the vibration of the phone just as he opened his mouth.
Ji Sheng froze, took the phone off his ear, and looked at the screen.
[Xie Xuanming]
Ji Sheng was silent suddenly, and Sheng Kongzhi yelled twice, noticing something was wrong and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I have a phone call here." Ji Sheng replied absently, "I'll answer it, you wait."
"Xie Xuanming?" Sheng Kongzhi asked. His tone suddenly became very bad, "Don't answer."
Ji Sheng hesitated for a second, and for some reason suddenly thought of Li Tan's "green hat" statement two days ago, and felt a little embarrassed.
Ji Sheng was trapped by Sheng Kongzhi's questioning for a second, but after realizing that he was in a bad mood, he frowned and asked, "What's wrong with you today?"
"I don't want you to pick it up." Sheng Kongzhi answered irrelevantly.
Xie Xuanming's name flashed twice on the screen and then disappeared.
Ji Sheng's mood also went down with the reminder, the illegitimate boy was still ringing the doorbell, the sound passing through made him restless, and Sheng Kongzhi's words were stinging, which made him even more upset.
"Are you trying to quarrel with me now?" Ji Sheng said in a very bad tone, "You are kind to the illegitimate child, but you are diametrically opposed to me. Do you think it's right for you to do so?"
"It's not a question of right or wrong." As Sheng Kongzhi said, he suddenly heard a vibration at the other end.
Xie Xuanming called again.
Really persistent.
Sheng Kongzhi's mood sank: "Don't..."
Before answering the words, the busy tone filled my ears.
Ji Sheng hung up the phone without saying a word.
In order to answer Xie Xuanming's call.
