It seems to be guilty of Tai Sui. Since entering 2014, Tianyu has been unfavorable in various ways.

At the beginning of the new year, Songshen and Shu Shan immediately quit CX Entertainment as soon as their five-year contract expired, which greatly weakened the company's strength. However, in half a year, the box office of the movie that Tianyu invested over 100 million plunged, causing heavy losses. When all Tianyu employees thought that this terrible and dark 2014 was about to pass safely, Qi Wenyuan's death from falling from a building undoubtedly gave them another knowing blow.

Not to mention later, Xia Cheng's gaffes on Weibo caused fans to turn black. Some people in the circle wonder if Tian Yu has bad Feng Shui this year, and accidents happen everywhere. Until a few nights ago, even Guo Xiao, who was praised by Tianyu, also fell into this inexplicable and weird bad luck spell, and everyone agreed in unanimous agreement that Tianyu probably really violated the Tai Sui.

After an accidental car accident, he was finally discharged from the hospital. He was supposed to be recuperating honestly and preparing for his comeback, but Guo Xiao was in a hurry to find trouble for himself. While mourning the poor Tianyu, the major media silently put Guo Xiao on the headline list of the day's entertainment gossip.

Should I say whether Guo Xiao is lucky or unlucky... At least, the exposure is absolutely there.

Just entered the winter, as if someone suddenly opened the frozen door from the north, and the temperature dropped rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye—there are no longer white thighs that are not afraid of the cold all over the street. The tall evergreen trees are still standing upright in the cold wind, and you can see a cold and bleak feeling in the air. Without the yellow sand raging in the sky, the air is much cleaner, giving people a feeling of freezing three feet .

During the first week of vacation, Lin Xi wrapped a thick woolen scarf and double-layered woolen coat and went out for a walk to recuperate. After three or five days, when the weather turned cold, he had no intention of going out again. Seeing that there were less than three days left in this rare two-week vacation, Ji Chengshu also called Lin Xi more than once to ask Lin Xi to go out for a walk, but was refused by the other party justly, and the reputation was that frequent going out was not enough. The danger of being recognized by fans.

For a while, Ji Chengshu had no choice but to accept his fate helplessly: this promising newcomer under his hands is really a hibernating animal that is absolutely afraid of the cold.

Lin Xi originally thought that this vacation would probably be spent at home like in previous years, but he did not expect that in the last three days, he suddenly received an unexpected call.

The cold wind was howling, and the setting sun no longer had the arrogance to compete with it in the freezing temperature, and it sank to the west early. There are a few faint stars hanging in the sky, which are almost indistinguishable in the night sky illuminated by the dazzling neon lights of the city like daytime.

Lin Xi wore a simple light gray home casual attire, a white cotton towel was hung around his slender fair neck, thin beads of sweat covered his plump forehead. The heating in the room is fully turned on, so it doesn't feel cold even in such a thin body. He stepped off the black multifunctional treadmill, picked up the mobile phone placed on the glass bar, looked at the name flashing on the screen in surprise for a while, and then pressed the answer button.

"Hello, Lin Xi. I heard that you are on vacation now, are you still in City B?" A clear and firm voice came from the other end of the phone.

Wei Wei thought about the other party's intention for a while but couldn't figure it out, Lin Xi nodded and said, "Well, I'm still in City B. What's the matter, Brother Zhu?"

Zhu Qing's voice was a little noisy, and it gradually quieted down after a while. Zhu Qing chuckled, and said, ""Dark War" just wrapped up yesterday, and I went back to City B today, and I want to invite a few friends to get together, do you have time?"

Unexpectedly, this was the reason why the other party called, Lin Xi opened his eyes wide in a little surprise. Want to call some friends... Lin Xi's elegant and beautiful eyes completed a beautiful arc, he smiled slightly and hooked his lips, and said, "Well, I have time, is it tonight?"

Zhu Qing said affirmatively: "Well. It's eight o'clock tonight, at Yongsheng Residence on the West Fourth Ring Road. You have only been here for a few days, so I can introduce some seniors to you."

Lin Xi was taken aback, and subconsciously raised his head, only to see that the round clock hanging high on the white wall was showing that it was past 7 o'clock. He frowned, and when the other party said a few more words and was about to hang up, he immediately interrupted and said, "I might not be able to make it at 8 o'clock."

Zhu Qing said suspiciously: "The traffic in City B is not very congested today. You are in the apartment in CX, so it shouldn't take half an hour."

"I don't have a car."

"..."

------------

The heater in the car had been turned on for quite a while, and as soon as Lin Xi stepped into the silver-gray Lexus, he felt a burst of warmth rushing towards his face. He was sitting right behind the driver's seat, and the hot air blowing directly in front of him brushed over his delicate ink-painted cheeks, staining two blushes.

Taking off the thick scarf wrapped around his neck and putting it aside, Lin Xigang raised his head to thank Zhu Qing, but before he could speak, he saw the young man sitting in the co-pilot. The other party turned around and was looking at him curiously with his dark and beautiful round eyes. The small face is full of novelty and amazement that cannot be concealed. On the right ear is a platinum diamond earring with silver light, looking very young and handsome.

Lin Xi immediately swallowed the words that came to his throat, and he was taken aback for a moment before regaining consciousness.

... It's a bit too much to say that he is a teenager. Although the other party has a cute baby face, he is already 24 years old this year.

Lin Xi naturally knew each other.

There are always people in this world who are naturally lucky. Once they enter the circle, they can encounter various good opportunities and successfully grasp them.

Xu Situ is one of such few people. Obviously, he only made his debut from CX Entertainment the year before last, but he became famous in one fell swoop with the annual drama "The River of Missing" right after his debut, and became a popular niche in the circle. Currently very active on the small screen, there is a faint momentum to hit the annual ratings king.

With a handsome and friendly baby face, good acting skills born without professional training, coupled with the good luck of God, Xu Situ became so popular that Qi Wenyuan at that time felt a little overwhelmed and a little relieved.

What's bothering me is why I've been struggling in the circle for so many years before I finally got my head out of it. The good news is that at least this can reflect one-sidedly that there is still a pure and pure land in this gorgeous and extravagant circle.

"Are you Lin Xi?" A voice as crisp as spring water sounded in the quiet carriage, Lin Xi couldn't help raising his eyes to look at Xu Situ, only to see the corner of his lips raised, showing a kind and friendly smile to himself.

Zhu Qing drove the car out of the apartment complex, and the top-notch Lexus was driving smoothly on the road. The silver-gray GS with high cost performance does not make any noise when it is started. The good sound insulation effect prevents the outside noise from affecting the people inside the car. The whole car is as quiet as if the air is condensed.

Xu Situ stared at Lin Xi closely with his moist round eyes like Bambi's. Lin Xi's small figure was reflected in his clear and clean pupils, quietly waiting for the other party's answer. That cute baby face looked very good to the touch, Lin Xi somehow felt in a good mood, couldn't help but curled his lips and nodded, answering: "Yes, I'm Lin Xi."

Facing this kid, Lin Xi really didn't want to use honorifics, even though he appeared to be older and debuted earlier than him. There is always a feeling... in front of such a person, everyone will grow up a generation for no reason.

After hearing Lin Xi's affirmative answer, Xu Situ immediately opened his eyes wide, and said excitedly: "You really look so beautiful..."

"..."

Seeing Lin Xi's speechless expression, Xu Situ blinked his eyes, and it took him a while to realize that his words seemed inappropriate. So he quickly waved his hands and explained: "I want to say that you are very good-looking, you are really good-looking, and you are one of the best people I have ever met.

"..." Lin Xi sighed helplessly in his heart, thinking to himself: You might as well not explain.

Zhu Qing, who had been sitting in the front row quietly listening to the conversation between the two, couldn't help laughing, stretched out his hand and did what Lin Xi had wanted to do for a long time - rubbed Xu Situ's end hard, and it looked very comfortable. Soft and fluffy short hair. This move was so successful that Xu Situ pouted and grabbed the arm that bullied him, and gave Zhu Qing a vicious look. But no matter how you look at those small eyes, it makes people feel that there is no lethality at all, it can only feel a kind of arrogance and awkwardness.

"Okay, Lin Xi, don't mind. Xiaotu is like this, he is born with few tendons." Zhu Qing revealed his shortcomings openly, with a teasing expression on his face. As soon as he spoke, his arm was quickly pinched by Xu Situ in the passenger seat. Zhu Qing let out a painful "hiss—" and repeatedly begged for mercy: "Okay, okay, can I stop talking?"

Xu Situ let out a muffled snort from his nose, curled his lips and turned his head away from Zhu Qing.

A warm and peaceful warmth gradually spread in Lin Xi's chest. He sat quietly in the back seat, watching this scene without making a sound.

Zhu Qing and Xu Situ...

It turned out that what Zhao Xian had mentioned before, that Zhu Qing almost had a falling out with Ji Chengshu because of her lover, probably this was it.

Being able to play jokes like this in front of him, and admit to himself the relationship between them frankly and without concealing it, Zhu Qing really regards himself as a friend. Thinking of this, Lin Xi couldn't help curling his lips, his cold eyes softened a bit.

A silver-gray figure of a car drove quickly across the road, like a light elf in the dark night, and soon stopped in front of Yongshengju.

Yongshengju, located on the West Third Ring Road of City B, is a high-end private club mainly open to stars in the entertainment industry. Established by a certain veteran in the circle, the secrecy is absolutely top-notch. The environment is quiet and comfortable, and the dishes are delicious. It is a good place for celebrities to gather and have dinner.

Lin Xi had not come to Yongshengju once or twice in his previous life, but this time he came in behind Zhu Qing and Xu Situ, showing an unfamiliar appearance. As Xu Situ walked, he turned around and communicated with Lin Xi with a smile. Occasionally, when he talked about gossip about some people in the circle, the child laughed from ear to ear.

The three of them walked forward together along this four-person-wide path. One side of the road was covered with cobblestones of different colors and sizes, and was covered by ankle-high shallow clear water. Beside the man-made lake about half a meter wide is a piece of large and translucent floor-to-ceiling glass. The bright and clear moonlight shines on the sparkling lake through the clear window, giving off a gentle silvery tint.

Turning around a corner shaded by green bamboos, the waitress wearing a navy blue blue and white cheongsam gently pushed open a half-hollow carved wooden door, then bent over and backed out. Zhu Qing and Xu Situ walked in first, followed by Lin Xi.

The interior has an antique scene. From the ingenious half-person-high artificial stone placed in the center of the room, to the mica screen standing on the mahogany floor behind it, and the carefully arranged antique treasures everywhere, it is really eye-opening and enlightening.

Seeing the three of Lin Xi enter the room, the gentle woman sitting at a table with Yunge and square patterns stood up, with a tea-like smile blooming on her lips, and said: "Finally here, Director Wu has been talking about it just now. "

"Haha, didn't Xiao Ji keep talking about it just now?" Wu Zhen was wearing a thick black leather jacket, and after hearing Ji Mei's joke, he couldn't help laughing and teasing.

Zhu Qing nodded understandingly, her handsome face looked a little gentle against the soft light. He pulled Xu Situ to sit down on the south side of the table, and said with a smile, "It's exactly eight o'clock, so I'm not late. If it wasn't for taking Lin Xiaoqiu, Xiaotu and I would probably be the first to arrive, right?"

Xu Situ also nodded sharply: "That's right, there is still a little traffic jam on our road."

Seeing the child's cute appearance, Wu Zhen couldn't help being amused, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes became more layered when he laughed, but he deliberately put on a serious face, and said seriously, "Little Xu Situ, why don't you?" I heard that the traffic in City B today is uncommonly smooth in a hundred years?"

Xu Situ immediately pursed his lips, and snorted, "It's just blocked, if you don't believe me, you can ask Lin Xi!" As soon as he finished speaking, the child turned his head to look at Lin Xi, his round black eyes kept blinking, winking Lin Xi hinted that Lin Xi was going to lie for herself.

Seeing this, Lin Xi smiled slightly, and opened his lips in a very sure and unhesitating tone: "Well, it's blocked."

"..." When Wu Zhen heard this, his weather-beaten face immediately pulled down, and he pretended to be angry: "You two little fellows join hands to bully my old man!"

The people at the table suddenly burst into laughter, and even Ji Mei couldn't help covering her vermilion lips and bending her apricot eyes. There was a warm and pleasant atmosphere in the room, and suddenly there was only a "crack—" a sound of pushing the door sounded behind Lin Xi, breaking the peaceful and peaceful atmosphere.

Everyone turned around to look at the passers-by, only to see a handsome middle-aged man standing at the door, tall and straight, with a dignified appearance.

The visitor had a pair of sharp eagle eyes, sword eyebrows into his temples, and a slightly square face, but it did not weaken his handsome and heroic spirit, on the contrary, he added a hint of toughness and determination. His gaze shifted to the people at the table, and his tightly pursed lips gradually loosened, revealing a nice smile.

Seeing the other party, Zhu Qing waved his hand immediately, and said loudly: "Old Chen, you are late, you will punish yourself with three cups, you will punish yourself with three cups, haha!"

Seeing the other person walk up to him and take a seat, Lin Xi concealed the astonishment on his face, but couldn't help but fix his eyes on the man. Probably because he noticed the way Lin Xi was looking at him, the man smiled and nodded at Lin Xi, then looked at Zhu Qing, and said, "I'm not the last one, let the last one drink first, and I'll come again."

When Wu Zhen heard this, he slapped the table happily, pointed at Zhu Qing's nose and said, "That's right, Xiao Zhu, you are in charge of making people drink fine."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a soft and charming voice from the door: "Director Wu is trying to bully people."

Although the voice was not pretentiously soft, the naturally rising tone at the end was like a small fan, scratching everyone's heart bit by bit. Bewitching as a fox, charming as a ghost, crisp to the bone, yet appearing natural and casual.

Lin Xi's eyes widened slightly, and he trembled to look at the door.

I saw a slim and graceful figure leaning against the door frame and looking at the people in the room with a smile, his smile was like a flower, amazed the space.
