Zhou Xiang felt that he was sucked by his eyes and could not even move his eyes away. The two of them looked at each other quietly. It had been a long time since they looked at each other carefully.
Zhou Xiang lowered his voice, "What are you thinking?"
"nothing."
Zhou Xiang smiled slightly, "Ming Xiu, I think I am quite happy now, where are you."
Yan Mingxiu blinked and said "um" softly. He didn't say yes, nor did he say no, but just said "um".
Zhou Xiang smiled and closed his eyes.
Yan Mingxiu came over and put his strong arms around his back, almost trying to wrap Zhou Xiang into his arms. Although Zhou Xiang's figure was a bit funny, Yan Mingxiu could feel Zhou Xiang's breathing between his neck, and he felt very warm.
Just like that, nothing wrong with it.
On Christmas Day, Yan Mingxiu came back early. Zhou Xiang took him at home and changed his clothes when he came back. They took the time to set off early.
It was a holiday and Friday that day, and the road was so busy that it was slower than walking. Fortunately, the restaurant was not far from them and it usually took 15 minutes to drive, so it took an hour today.
The restaurant was packed today, but the indoor atmosphere was very quiet, which contrasted with the crowds outside.
The couple sat around them. The two of them had a candlelight dinner face to face. It was really abrupt, especially Yan Mingxiu's appearance, which was even more eye-catching. Almost everyone had to secretly look at them.
Zhou Xiang didn't expect such an awkward scene to happen, so he kept paying attention to Yan Mingxiu's expression, afraid that he would be angry.
Yan Mingxiu looked as if no one else was around. When he saw Zhou Xiang looking at him, he laughed and said, "What are you nervous? Don't let strangers affect your mood, eat yours."
Zhou Xiang then breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Are you used to being seen by others?"
Yan Mingxiu shrugged his shoulders gently, not saying anything.
"Just because of your calmness, it's a pity not to be a star."
Yan Mingxiu smiled and shook his head, "I hate that kind of profession that has no privacy at all, and it is inconvenient to do anything."
Zhou Xiang said: "Yes, you can't even imagine that some reporters are so terrible. The old things that happened more than ten years ago may have forgotten them, and the reporters can reveal them. Celebrities are really not something that people are good at. The most exciting thing in the world is that they have money, and others don't know."
Zhou Xiang told Yan Mingxiu a classic gossip case in the circle. They usually don’t say these things because Yan Mingxiu didn’t seem to be very interested, but today he listened with relish. The two of them haven’t said so much for a long time and they were very happy to have a meal.
After dinner, they walked towards the underground parking lot. Just as they were about to get in the car, a female voice suddenly came from behind, "Ming Xiu?"
The two of them turned around at the same time and saw a tall and beautiful woman standing behind them with a man wearing sunglasses.
Zhou Xiang could tell at a glance that the person wearing sunglasses was Wang Yudong.
When Yan Mingxiu saw the two, his face immediately changed. He vaguely called out, "Sister."
"Mingxiu, are you here to have dinner too? Why didn't I see you just now?" Yan Mingmei said and walked up. When she noticed Zhou Xiang, she was stunned.
Wang Yudong also took off his glasses. He looked at Zhou Xiang with warnings in his eyes.
Zhou Xiang was so embarrassed that he didn't know where to hide. He could only calm down and smiled politely at Yan Ming.
Yan Mingmei didn't laugh. She almost immediately began to doubt what her younger brother had to do with this man. Yan Mingmei was not unaware that Yan Mingxiu's sexual orientation was problematic, but like her parents, she always wanted to choose to forget.
She looked at Zhou Xiang, then looked at Yan Mingxiu, "Mingxiu, is this your friend?"
Yan Mingxiu's lips were trembling, and his eyes were placed on Yan Mingmei's arm holding Wang Yudong, and he didn't like him no matter how he looked at it.
Wang Yudong hugged Yan Mingmei's waist and whispered: "This person is a colleague I have worked with, and I introduced them to me."
Yan Mingmei seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, but she still turned her head uneasy and asked Wang Yudong with her eyes.
Wang Yudong gave her a look of peace of mind, "They may have something to do today."
Yan Mingxiu said stiffly, "We have something to do, let's go first."
"Oh." Yan Mingmei grabbed him, "What are you anxious about? Yudong and I are going to see a movie, let's go together." She was always worried and wanted to observe the relationship between the two.
Yan Mingxiu said impatiently: "I said we still have something to do, so we don't have time to go to the movies, you can go by yourself."
Yan Mingmei sensitively noticed the fluctuations in Yan Mingxiu's emotions, and she frowned and said, "What's wrong with you? What's in a hurry?"
Yan Mingxiu emphasized, "I have something to do." After saying that, he pressed the lock and rushed to Zhou Xiang, "Let's go." After saying that, he took the lead in the cab.
Zhou Xiang sat in the co-pilot without looking back. He felt two hot eyes behind him staring at him.
They didn't go to see the movie, and Zhou Xiang had expected it long ago.
The atmosphere along the way was very heavy, and Yan Mingxiu didn't say a word and his face was very bad.
Zhou Xiang thought he was worried that his sister would find out, so he didn't have much to say anything, and he couldn't even express comfort, so he could only remain silent.
Yan Mingxiu drove his car home, then went straight to the study room, and slammed onto the study door.
Zhou Xiang looked at the closed door, and he knew that he was once again locked outside Yan Mingxiu's heart, and still couldn't see the opportunity to step in.
They tacitly mentioned anything about Christmas day, as if nothing had happened, but Yan Mingxiu became more and more silent.
Two days before New Year's Day, Director Wang convened another meeting. A small character like Zhou Xiang can come or not, so no one informed him to attend. It was when Mr. Wang arrived and found that he did not come, so he called him to come over, hoping that he would contact more people.
Zhou Xiang quickly drove over when he received the call, but it was still half an hour late. He didn't expect that after entering the house, he saw the scene where Director Wang and Wang Yudong had a blushing face and thick neck.
As soon as he entered the room, everyone's eyes looked at him. Zhou Xiang wanted to become an invisible person. Who would want to attract firepower at this time?
Mr. Wang didn't expect that the two of them would start arguing in the end, so he quickly looked for a frustrated look in his eyes. Zhou Xiang found a place to sit down.
Zhou Xiang hugged and ran over and sat next to Mr. Wang.
Wang Yudong said coldly, "My engagement is also a big event for my life. Everyone else agreed to postpone the opening ceremony. Director Wang can't be able to adapt it? I must go on vacation, and I hope Director Wang can understand."
Director Wang slapped the table and said, "The date is set two months earlier. You can change it if you say it, how much trouble you will delay! The days will never be changed. If you don't come, you will not be on the cast list!"
Speaking of this, the relationship between the two was almost impossible to repair. The three investors were all bored, and Mr. Wang rolled his eyes directly, too lazy to pay attention.
Wang Yudong was so angry that his muscles on his face were a little distorted, "Okay, Director Wang asked someone to take over me, I hope you can find a satisfactory candidate."
"There are so many people who can beat you!" Director Wang was so angry that he glared at him. He glanced at Zhou Xiang, who was not sitting on the butt, and said sternly: "Zhou Xiang!"
Zhou Xiang was so scared that everyone looked at him.
Director Wang snorted heavily, "I think Zhou Xiang is good. You have been a substitute for Wang Yudong and know how to act. This time you will play the role of Wang Yudong. It's not a substitute. I'll let you be the protagonist."
As soon as this said, everyone's eyes were about to pop out, and the entire conference room was silent. Zhou Xiang was shocked by this sentence and did not dare to breathe.
Some people who have a good relationship with Zhou Xiang all have sympathy in their eyes.
Everyone understands that Director Wang said this not because Zhou Xiang is talented, nor is that Zhou Xiang is really qualified to take on this role, just because this can humiliate Wang Yudong to the greatest extent.
If this matter is confirmed, Wang Yudong will become the biggest laughing stock in the entire entertainment industry.
Director Wang's move was indeed ruthless, but it pushed Zhou Xiang to the forefront.
