That night Qin Yang came to pick He Jin up from get off work and told him the news immediately.
"I haven't agreed yet, I said I'll think about it." Qin Yang held the steering wheel and turned it gently, with a hint of pride in his tone that couldn't be concealed, especially when it came to the remuneration, he said with joy, "The endorsement fee is six million one Two years, ten million and two years, before tax, it is said that it is enough to be a first-line star, and the filming update does not exceed three times. They saw me hesitate and said that I can ask them again if I have a request."
Six million… !
He Jin was so surprised that he couldn't keep his mouth shut. He found an internship job with a monthly salary of less than 4,000 yuan after tax. Even if the contract was signed well in the first year after graduation, it is said that the annual salary would start at 100,000 yuan. , is a monthly income of 200,000 yuan, and the endorsement fee that I just heard is even more outrageous... 6 million, what kind of order is this
He Jin originally thought that through his own efforts, he could gradually reach a level similar to Qin Yang's, but now he has to sigh, people like Qin Yang who are favored by the god of fate cannot be compared at all, they can only be used look up.
"What do you think?" Qin Yang turned his head to look at him, his handsome facial features were extraordinarily radiant under the light of the street lamp outside the window.
Although Qin Yang was asking for He Jin's opinion, the thoughts and decisions in his heart had been fully expressed on his face - he was moved by his heart, and he wanted to do it.
What can He Jin say? be opposed to? To pour cold water on him? Will not.
Indeed, He Jin was afraid that Qin Yang would be exposed, and that he would definitely be hurt. The rumors and gossips in the school were a lesson learned from the past. The environment at Huada University was still relatively academic. Expanding to the whole country, what should he do if the netizen exposes their human flesh
But after thinking about it, which young people in their twenties have no desire for money and fame? Such a great opportunity was in front of Qin Yang, He Jin didn't want the other party to give up because of his timidity, it would make He Jin feel that he was too selfish.
Seeing He Jin pondering, Qin Yang asked, "Are you worried that I will be in trouble after being exposed? Actually, I have thought about this problem. I used to think it was troublesome, but now I don't think so. There are so many people in this world. Successful people, those who are on TV interviews, and those who are on the cover of magazines, don’t they also live well in this world? In fact, only by climbing to the top of society can we live the life we want.”
Qin Yang's words revealed his strong ambition for the future. He wanted to climb up and become a successful person. He Jin had no reason to be a stumbling block on his way forward.
"If you want to do it... just do it." He Jin smiled at Qin Yang against his will, and said this sentence with some difficulty.
Qin Yang was really happy, holding the steering wheel with one hand, and stretched out the other hand to hold He Jin's palm: "Honey, trust me."
He Jin looked out the window, his ears were red: "Don't be so nasty."
Looking at the lights and traffic outside the window, He Jin was inexplicably worried. On the surface, this matter seemed to be a good thing, but He Jin felt that the peaceful life he thought before might be just an illusion of self-deception.
"Oh, that's right," Qin Yang drove for a while, then said, "I'm going home this weekend, will you go back with me?"
He Jin was startled: "To your house?"
"Yes, I haven't been back for a long time. Aunt Jiang called me on the weekend for my sister's birthday, hoping that I would go back for dinner." Qin Yang glanced at him, "I said I'm renting a house with you now, Aunt Jiang said let me take you with me."
He Jin thought of that kind and gentle woman, nodded and said, "Okay."
On the weekend, He Jin casually put on clean casual clothes and went out with Qin Yang. He thought he was just having dinner with Qin Yang's stepmother and younger siblings, so he only bought an exquisite small cake as a gift for his younger sister, and nothing else. Prepared, but arrived at Qin Yang's house that day, only to find that Qin Yang's father was also there!
At the beginning of the year, I stayed at Qin Yang's house for a few nights. At that time, Qin Yang's father was busy with work, and He Jin went out to work during the day, but there was no one there, so this was the first time I saw him.
He Jin suddenly became nervous, feeling that he was not dressed formally enough, and he came to the door without any other gifts, which was extremely impolite.
Qin Yang quietly teased him: "Why are you so nervous, an ugly daughter-in-law always wants to see her in-laws, not to mention you are not ugly."
He Jin was speechless, thinking of his relationship with Qin Yang, he didn't know where to put his restrained hands and feet.
Qin Yang didn't look much like his father. His father was shorter, fatter, with rougher features. He looked very young, about forty years old, and he had the aura of a typical businessman.
Qin Yang pulled He Jin in front of his father, and said bluntly, "Dad, this is He Jin, my boyfriend."
He Jin: "...!!!"
These words had a great impact on He Jin, his face turned pale with fright, and he felt ashamed for a moment. What he wanted to hide with all his might, Qin Yang could always blurt out without fear.
"Oh, you stole that bottle of whiskey from me when you were seventeen years old, and got drunk just because of this kid?" Father Qin looked at He Jin carefully, with a smile that was not a smile. Qin Yang's shadow was found in the arc, and the sizing eyes of the other party were not disgusting, but it made He Jin feel a little embarrassed.
"Yes." Qin Yang's tone seemed indifferent.
His father simply asked He Jin a few words, where is his hometown, and what major did he study, half of which was interrupted by Qin Yang's rough voice: "Don't ask, he will come to have dinner today."
Aunt Jiang chimed in on the sidelines: "That's right, it's rare for Xiao He to come here. You don't have to ask a few words, it makes people feel uncomfortable."
He Jin helplessly smoothed things over: "It's okay, it's okay." He wasn't afraid to chat with his elders, but he felt that it was too strange to be looked at with the eyes of a "prospective daughter-in-law".
Qin Yang's father didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and complained, "I really don't know who's my relative!"
The whole family sat around and ate, lit candles, sang birthday songs to the little birthday star, and gave gifts. The atmosphere was lively and enviable.
Somehow He Jin remembered a quote from Tolstoy: All happy families are alike, and every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.
He hasn't contacted his family for half a year, and he doesn't know what's going on with his parents. The phone numbers of the two elders have long been removed from the blacklist by He Jin. What's the matter, but they can't muster up the courage, and He Jin is also very sad. Don't they care about their own situation at all
After dinner, Aunt Jiang made tea for everyone. Qin Yang's father went to the study to smoke. Taking advantage of Qin Yang being pestered by his younger brother, he couldn't help being curious, so he secretly waved at He Jin and called him into the study, " Xiao He, don't be nervous, uncle will just chat with you a few words."
How could He Jin not be nervous, and he didn't know what the other party wanted to talk to him, so he respectfully said, "Speak, uncle."
Qin's father slowly took a puff of cigarette, and suddenly said: "I watched you two for a long time just now, and I feel that you are more mature than Yang Yang." He Jin was startled, and then heard the other party ask, "Are you one year older than him?"
"Well, one class higher than him." He Jin said.
Qin's father said with a smile: "that child is more frizzy than you, and he is also very impulsive."
He Jin: "..."
Qin's father swallowed and said: "This kid has been like this since he was a child. He is used to indulgence and has never suffered much... It's just that his mother left early when I was a child. I just started my career at that time, so I didn't pay much attention to him. At that time He is very rebellious, always talking back and scolding me, I am very worried that he will go astray," the man sighed, and smiled at He Jin, "but I didn't expect him to be very motivated. After graduating from junior high school, he has been taking My idea, I heard that he made a lot of money by playing some other games, so I don’t need to worry about it now.”
He Jin listened carefully, catching the key points in the other party's words.
"He told me that he is today not because of me, but because of a friend he met in the game, his first love," Qin's father sneered, as if recalling Qin Yang's naive and stubborn expression The scene of this sentence, and then raised his eyes to look at He Jin, "Is it you who are talking about?"
He Jin lowered his eyes in embarrassment, and gave a soft "hmm".
"You don't have to be embarrassed. Uncle won't object to you. As a father, I definitely want my children to be happy and happy. Except for the family, I couldn't give Qin Yang the most perfect. Everything else went smoothly for him, and he didn't encounter any problems. What setbacks have I encountered, including the relationship problem that I am least optimistic about... He said a long time ago that he would wait for you, find you, and be with you. I always thought he was too naive and laughed at him. , Seeing him so happy now, I am also very happy..." At this point, the man suddenly changed the subject and said, "There is just one thing, please."
He Jin hurriedly said, "Uncle, tell me."
Qin's father: "You are still young, and you will definitely encounter many problems in the future. Qin Yang is not as stable as you, and has a more conceited personality. When you are with him, give him more advice and give him some direction..."
At this moment, the door of the study was knocked hard twice, and Qin Yang's voice sounded from outside: "Father! What are you and He Jin doing inside!"
Qin's father was startled, then smiled again: "Look, I just want to say a few words to you, and he is in a hurry again... Okay, you go out," the man casually took a business card from the mahogany writing desk and stuffed it to He Jin, "If you have any difficulties in life, you can find your uncle."
He Jin thanked him and was about to turn around when Qin Yang's father stopped him again and called him by his full name: "He Jin..." He paused and said, "Don't hurt his heart." The sharpness made He Jin nodded unconsciously.
Qin Yang couldn't wait to rush in, aggressively, as if he was afraid that He Jin would be bullied by his father.
"What did my dad tell you?" Qin Yang pulled him and asked after the two went out.
"It's nothing." He Jin pretended to be relaxed and joked with him, "Your father said you were childish and asked you to listen to me more."
Qin Yang: "..."
He Jin raised one eyebrow and asked, "Hey, why did you steal whiskey when you were seventeen?"
He calculated that Qin Yang was seventeen years old almost five or six years ago, and the two had lost contact for two or three years at that time, why did Qin Yang's father say that Qin Yang was for himself
Qin Yang blushed and coughed lightly: "It's nothing, black history."
He Jin: "..."
At the beginning of August, the whole city of A city fell into a scorching hot atmosphere. Qin Yang signed a contract with the game company, and not long after, he participated in the endorsement promotional video and photo shooting. The shooting time was not long, and Qin Yang went to It took two or three days, and it took only half a month from filming to post-production to launch and promotion, but almost overnight, the promotional advertisement of Shenmao hologram swept the whole city overnight, even the electronic advertisements in subway stations. A cool short video of Qin Yang in a cosplay game appeared!
He Jin was in fear for several days, but Qin Yang seemed to be okay, playing games and watching games during the day, occasionally making mechanical models, and even finding time to cook for He Jin at night.
On the day of Qixi Festival, He Jin was having lunch in the company cafeteria, and saw a few female colleagues at the next table chatting about gods and demons—
"Hey, have you seen a game advertisement recently? It's so popular!"
"I can see it every day on the way to work, it's so cool, it makes me want to buy a helmet to play games..."
"What I care about is the little fresh meat that is on the ad. It seems to be a new face and looks very handsome."
"It is said that he is the best 2D idol in that game, right?"
"I'm outdated. I don't know what's popular among young people now. I'm a fifteen-year-old niece, and I'm so obsessed with this person. I went to my sister's house for dinner the day before yesterday, and saw her calling the poster adoringly God..."
He Jin listened with his ears pricked up, and he was greatly relieved to see that they didn't talk about anything related to him. Maybe he was really overthinking, and everyone focused more on the game.
At this time, his eyes suddenly darkened, and a figure stood in front of him, "He Jin, is there anyone here?" It was a little girl from the accounting department and an intern.
"No one, sit down." He Jin said politely.
The girl sat down with a plate, talked to him enthusiastically, and asked him shyly if he was free after get off work, and asked him to watch a movie together.
On such a day, the meaning of the girl's words is self-evident, and He Jin refused: "Sorry, I have an appointment with my...girlfriend tonight."
He didn't lie, Qin Yang asked him to watch a movie a long time ago, but he just changed "boyfriend" to "girlfriend".
The girl said awkwardly: "You have a girlfriend... why, why didn't I hear you say it!"
He Jin smiled wryly. Seeing the disappointed look on the girl's face, he couldn't bear it, so he just found an excuse to perfunctory him. Sometimes he thought, if he was a girl and had a boyfriend like Qin Yang, how useful would it be? She's hiding it, maybe it's too late to be happy, right
After get off work, He Jin went to the parking lot 500 meters away from the company to wait for Qin Yang. In order to avoid gossip from colleagues, the two specially set up a pick-up point that was completely different from the subway station. However, He Jin was actually in the parking lot that night. I met Manager Qu.
"Xiao He?" Manager Qu was surprised, "Did you come here by car?"
He Jin waved his hand: "No, I'll wait for someone!"
Just as he was talking, Qin Yang's car appeared, and a sapphire blue shadow slid down to He Jin's side in the night. The streetlights on the side of the parking lot seemed to be remotely controlled. A handsome young man, and a box of hardcover roses half a person's height in the passenger seat.
