Chapter 347

Views:

Laiying was once a person who was "bullied" by Lu Yinbing and had the strength to fight back, and could stab her from time to time. Now Xia Yitong has learned all the bad habits from Lu Yinbing, and the bad habits are getting worse and worse.

Bai is not coming back, I am so worried, Laiying took another sip of wine.

If this continues, it may affect the relationship.

The drinking table is not a place to discuss matters. Xue Yao resisted the urge to mention resignation. Lu Yinbing had already returned. Could she deny it? Although her temper was a little bad, she was not untrustworthy.

After a good meal and a few drinks, they chatted until 11pm. During this time, Laiying's assistant left first because Laiying was not going home tonight and would stay at Lu Yinbing's house. After the dinner, Xiaoxi was responsible for sending the half-drunk Xue Yao home, and Fang Hui was responsible for sending the other three people.

Xia Yitong moved back home a month after Lu Yinbing left, and lived there for four months. Later, she went abroad again, but she hired someone to clean the house regularly, and it still had a lively atmosphere. The furnishings had not changed, even the vase in the middle of the living room table had a bunch of fresh lilies.

Laiying has to go back to the crew tomorrow morning, so she can't waste the night, otherwise Lu Yinbing will definitely grab her and list the hundred crimes she committed in corrupting Xia Yitong. Fortunately, Laiying was in a hurry to go to bed and rest, so Xia Yitong didn't get caught on the spot.

Xia Yitong sat on the bed in the bedroom, listening to the sound of water coming from the bathroom, bit her lower lip, and thought tangledly: Should I take the blame that was thrown to Laiying again? What if Lu Yinbing confronted Laiying, not only would she have to be "tortured" by Lu Yinbing, but also "condemned" by Laiying.

It was also her fault that she was too impulsive at the time and wanted to maintain her own personality too much. She and Lu Yinbing had the same goal in both moral integrity and artistic talent. It didn't matter if she admitted it. In Lu Yinbing's heart, she was no longer the same mimosa anyway. It was just that she was subverted a little more.

When Lu Yinbing returned home, everything in the house she used to live in seemed new to her. She took a long bath in the bathroom, her whole body red from the hot water. She casually put on a bathrobe and came out, with the belt of the bathrobe tied diagonally around her waist. It was so loose that it looked worse than if she hadn't tied it.

Lu Yinbing put the body lotion on the bedside table into Xia Yitong's hand: "Help me apply it."

As she said this, she put one leg on the edge of the bed, revealing her leg skin under the bathrobe. It was white and slender, and it was even more amazing when you looked inside along the thigh.

Xia Yitong smiled, kissed her leg first, squeezed some body lotion into her palm, and applied it evenly on her legs, calves, and thighs. She then changed to several lotions and applied them on her neck, waist, abdomen, buttocks, forearms and other parts.

As celebrities, their after-bath care is naturally more elaborate than that of ordinary people. Xia Yitong and Lu Yinbing are both professionals and know all the procedures. They sit down and are very familiar and methodical.

After applying the mask, Lu Yinbing blinked and looked at Xia Yitong through the hole. Xia Yitong said, "I'm going to take a shower too."

Lu Yinbing was not in a position to speak, so Xia Yitong leaned over and kissed her lightly on the lips, then went to the bathroom holding her pajamas.

Lu Yinbing curled her eyes in the mask, fumbled on the bed with her long hands, touched her mobile phone, logged into her original WeChat account, and replied to a few friends and the director's concerns. She also checked to see if she had missed any important messages. After checking everything, she closed WeChat and opened Weibo.

Well, he wasn’t photographed at the airport today. If he had been photographed, he could have shown some invisible affection with Xia Yitong. Tsk, what a pity.

A month ago, the public opinion was in an uproar, and Xue Yao could only do an emergency PR to say that Xia Yitong was so excited because Lu Yinbing didn't tell her about her marriage. If your best friend got married without telling you, wouldn't you give her a beating? At the same time, the big hand who was poached by Xia Yitong last time was invited to make a new OS, full of humor, and hired some Internet users to spread the heat. Later, the Internet users withdrew, and the number of reposts was also gratifying, which suppressed the rumors of love.

In the final analysis, netizens just want to read gossip for fun. What the truth behind the stars is is not the main point they care about. What they want is novelty. On the other hand, Xia Yitong is already popular enough. The scandal with Lu Yinbing has been going on for a year. If we count from the first scandal, it was four years ago. The battle line is extremely long, and no one has admitted it yet. Moreover, because they are of the same sex, they have "sisterly love" as a cover, and it is not as easy to confirm the relationship as heterosexual couples. The melon that netizens eat is not eaten by them. It is hanging in the air. After hanging for a long time, they are annoyed. Oh, another relationship is exposed? So what? They will not admit it.

Among them there is a group called "only fans", they will never allow their goddess to be tied down by such scandals, and try their best to clarify the concern of Lu and Xia under the Weibo that exposed their relationship, "They are good friends", "Good friends, nothing else, spreading rumors will kill the whole family", "Please pay attention to the work, thank you", "Xia Yitong's new movie Love at First Sight is scheduled to be released on December 29, please support her", "My Lu has retired, please give her some peace", etc. The fans have a strong ability to control comments, and soon the comments of passers-by can no longer be seen.

And those who never believed in this homosexual relationship still don't believe it.

In short, the situation is still in the Schrödinger's state that Xia Yitong described. Without opening the cabinet door, no one knows whether she is bent or straight.

Lu Yinbing's eyes circled above his eyes. His heart felt itchy. No, his feet felt itchy. He wanted to kick open Xia Yitong's transparent cabinet door.

She has to be patient until the time comes.

Lu Yinbing sighed.

"You sighed as soon as I came out?" Xia Yitong wiped her hair, stood at the door outside the bathroom, and looked at Lu Yinbing a little sadly.

Lu Yinbing smiled and said "Hey", and called her over: "How can that be? I'm thinking about other things."

"What are you thinking about?" Xia Yitong sat on the bed, "My hair is not dry yet, I can't lie down."

"Let me blow dry your hair for you." Lu Yinbing took off the mask on her face, wiped her face with a hot towel, took the hair dryer, plugged it in and blew Xia Yitong's hair. "It's too long. Isn't it inconvenient to wash your hair? How about cutting it shorter?"

"Let's talk about it later. I don't know what the requirements for the next film will be."

Lu Yinbing: "Okay, I'll go with you to choose a hairstyle when it's time to cut it."

"Yeah." Xia Yitong looked at Lu Yinbing. It had been nearly two years since she had the last surgery to shave her head. Her hair was only a little shorter than before, and her appearance hadn't changed at all from four years ago, but many things had clearly changed.

Lu Yinbing ran his fingers through her hair. He didn't look at her, but he knew she was looking at him. He couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips and said, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"You look good." Xia Yitong hugged her waist and took a deep breath.

Lu Yinbing raised his hand a little higher: "Be careful not to burn your ears."

Xia Yitong closed her eyes and said, "You won't burn me."

"How do you know I can't? I can't burn you to death." Lu Yinbing said this fiercely, but her hands were more gentle. Xia Yitong curved her eyes in her arms.

"I'm done." Lu Yinbing put away the hair dryer, applied body lotion to her, and gave her a massage. Xia Yitong almost fell asleep. She was still dazed when she stopped. It was not until Lu Yinbing hugged her in his arms that he asked dazedly, "When did you learn massage?"

"I learned this when I was bored abroad. How's the technique?"

"Who else did you press the button for?" Xia Yitong immediately became alert.

Lu Yinbing smiled and said, "My mother, be my guinea pig."

Xia Yitong gave her a loud kiss on the lips.

Lu Yinbing said: "Go to sleep."

Xia Yitong hummed softly.

Having just returned from a time zone difference, I thought I would not be able to sleep, but we hugged each other and fell asleep in a few minutes.

Getting up early in the morning, Xia Yitong went to make breakfast, and the three of them ate while chatting and laughing. Laiying returned to the crew to continue filming, and Lu Yinbing and Xia Yitong went to the company together, which caused quite a stir.

When Lu Yinbing came out at noon, the whole company was talking about the beautiful love story of "the wife and the husband return home together", and some strange things were mixed in. Of course, that's a story for later.

Now, Lu Yinbing was sitting in Xue Yao's office, on the office chair, with a written resignation letter in front of her, and Xue Yao, who had handed in the resignation letter, was sitting opposite her.

Xue Yao was really determined this time, and even eight horses couldn't pull her back.

Xia Yitong looked at Lu Yinbing nervously, and Lu Yinbing gave her a calm look in return.

Lu Yinbing asked, "I wonder who will take over your position?"

Xue Yao said: "I am in the process of contacting them. I will stay in the company until the new agent takes office."

Lu Yinbing looked at her for a while and suddenly sighed.

Xue Yao knew it was a trick, but out of motherly psychology, she still asked: "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I just feel it's a pity." Lu Yinbing shook his head and said.

Xue Yao: "It's not a pity. I have money, status and reputation. There's nothing wrong with quitting at the peak of my career. It's time to take a vacation and relax."

Lu Yinbing still shook his head, showing an expression of disagreement.

Not to mention Xue Yao, even Xia Yitong was confused.

Xue Yao: "If you have something to say, please say it quickly."

Lu Yinbing winked at Xia Yitong, who immediately stepped forward and pushed her chair outward, pushing it all the way outside the desk until it was almost next to Xue Yao's chair. The two of them were facing each other, and Lu Yinbing said, "It was famous originally, but now that you're gone, it's no longer a good thing."

"What do you mean?"

Lu Yinbing said, "Think about it. I retired from the industry under your leadership. Then, as soon as you left, a new manager came in, and I returned to the industry. What would people in the industry think? Would they think that I retired because of a conflict with you? Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that I returned to the industry as soon as you left?"

Xue Yao: “…”

Lu Yinbing analyzed it to her slowly, "Also, I won't stop until I win the Best Actress Award at the Cannes Film Festival this time. If I don't win, I'll just keep filming. You've been with me for so many years, and I've won the Berlin Film Festival once, and received several nominations, but I ended up retiring from the industry. If I had won the Best Actress Award at the Cannes Film Festival with that agent, and even made it to the Oscars with a little more luck, you know that with my ability, it's not just a pipe dream. By that time, everyone will know that he/she is my agent, and that he/she made me what I am. So what if you've been supporting me for fifteen years? I guess all the credit will be attributed to him/her."

Xue Yao: “…”

She knew that there must be a reason why Lu Yinbing was so calm. It turned out that he was waiting for her here. Lu Yinbing's words were not pleasant to hear, but every word was true. This was the status quo in the circle. If Lu Yinbing really won the highest award in the world film industry in three to five years as she said, her current agent would be remembered, not her, Xue Yao.

What do you call this? I worked hard for fifteen years, only to make wedding clothes for others.

How could Xue Yao bear this

What did Xue Yao like? Money and fame, supporting artists, showing her outstanding ability in this area, being good at dancing with long sleeves, and getting along with everyone. If she chose to leave at this critical moment, she would lose far more than money. The reputation she had worked hard to build for so many years would be greatly reduced. Lu Yinbing estimated that Xue Yao had to bite her teeth to pieces and swallow them with blood, so he calmly gave her a sweet date.

"I'll give you three months off first. You don't have to worry about the company's affairs during these three months. At the same time, I will hire a professional manager to help me manage the company's other industries. You only need to be responsible for the work of the agency department. Xia Yitong and I will not come out until we have absolute strength. You can rest assured." As for whether there will be other problems, Lu Yinbing can't make a guarantee. She can only say that she will try her best. She secretly concealed this sentence in her heart and said, "The operation of the agency department is very mature. There are not many things to do on a daily basis, and there is probably little overtime. You can develop your personal feelings as much as possible."

Xue Yao glanced at Lu Yinbing. How could she have any personal feelings for him? It was nonsense!

"I asked Xia Yitong to ask Han Suhan to take a month off so that he can go out and play with you." Lu Yinbing coughed lightly and said, "Please think about it."

As for the reason why Xia Yitong asked Su Han to take a leave, he exaggerated Xue Yao's current poor mental state, and then appealed to her emotions and reason. The most important thing was that Lu Yinbing paid Su Han double his salary. Su Han could not resist the temptation of money and could not afford to give up Xia Yitong's face, so he had to agree. This was Lu Yinbing's final trump card.

Xue Yao: “…”

Lu Yinbing picked up the resignation letter on the table, stood up, and stuffed it into the shredder.
