Zhang Songnian returned home exhausted. He lay down for a while to recharge his batteries. Zhang Songnian was really working hard today, which was quite tiring.

After a while, Zhang Songnian slowly got up to cook.

After finishing cooking, Zhang Songnian realized that he seemed to have cooked dinner for two, and even brought two pairs of bowls and chopsticks to the table.

Zhang Songnian was stunned for a moment and looked towards Li Xingruo's room.

How could he have forgotten that Li Xingruo had already gone to Shanghai? He had sent him to the high-speed rail station in the morning.

Sure enough, I still can't go to work, and I'm starting to forget about it after just one day of work.

Zhang Songnian shook his head and quickly put the other set of bowls and chopsticks back into the kitchen.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Songnian took out his mobile phone, clicked on the food on the table, and sent a message to Li Xingruo.

Li Xingruo seemed quite free and immediately replied with a question mark.

‘?’

Zhang Songnian smiled, and quickly typed on the screen with his fingers: 'I cooked too much food, and I forgot that you were not at home.'

'Then help me eat my share, thank you.'

Zhang Songnian immediately replied: 'I am eating now. Please also eat on time, and don't forget to take your medicine.'

In a private residential area in Shanghai, Li Xingruo was slightly stunned when he saw the message sent by Zhang Songnian.

I patted my head in frustration, as I seemed to have forgotten to eat and take medicine again.

"Of course, help me order a takeaway, something light. Where did my stomach medicine go?" Li Xingruo shouted to his assistant Shi Ranran.

"Okay, Sister Xingruo." Shi Ranran nodded and went to help Li Xingruo find stomach medicine.

Li Xingruo took the medicine handed over by Shi Ranran and put it aside. Then he continued to grab his phone and replied: 'Thanks for the reminder, I'm preparing to take it.'

"Are you celebrities so busy that you can even forget about eating?" Zhang Songnian couldn't help but ask.

'No, I just simply forgot.'

‘…’ Zhang Songnian was speechless. He was so confused by Li Xingruo that he could only send a string of ellipses to express his speechlessness.

Then he thought for a moment and said: 'Don't forget it in the future, otherwise you will never be able to recover from your stomach trouble.'

Li Xingruo was still waiting for the takeout. When he saw Zhang Songnian's message, he pursed his lips and then replied: 'I'm used to it, and I won't be able to change it for a while.'

"Where is your assistant?" Zhang Songnian asked curiously.

"The assistant is not a nanny, and it is impossible for her to keep an eye on me 24 hours a day. Besides, when I am busy, I have no time to eat or take medicine." Li Xingruo explained patiently.

"Being a star is so tiring." Zhang Songnian couldn't help but complain.

Li Xingruo couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth when he saw the news sent by Zhang Songnian.

She could already imagine Zhang Songnian's expression when he said these words.

‘It’s okay, I think it’s pretty good.’ Li Xingruo said without quite agreeing.

"As long as you are happy." Zhang Songnian replied perfunctorily.

Generally speaking, it is unwise to argue with people who think differently than you do. Zhang Songnian believes that.

Li Xingruo looked at Zhang Songnian's news, wrinkled his nose and replied: 'It's so perfunctory.'

"Sister Xingruo, who are you talking to? You are smiling so happily." Shi Ranran placed the takeout in front of Li Xingruo and asked curiously.

"Ah, it's nothing, just a friend." Li Xingruo quickly put away his cell phone and his expression became serious.

Shi Ranran, who has been with Li Xingruo since she debuted, knows Li Xingruo quite well, but she has never heard of any close friends of Sister Xingruo.

"I'm going to eat, you go ahead." Li Xingruo saw Shi Ranran's suspicious eyes and quickly moved Shi Ranran away.

"Oh." Shi Ranran responded obediently.

Don't ask questions that shouldn't be asked. As a professional assistant, she still knows this truth.

After seeing Shi Ranran leave, Li Xingruo opened the takeout and took a bite, then couldn't help but frown.

This takeaway was not as delicious as the food cooked by Zhang Songnian. Somehow, an idea suddenly flashed through Li Xingruo's mind.

Li Xingruo was not a picky eater before, so he was shocked that he suddenly had this idea.

However, Li Xingruo quickly put aside the distracting thoughts in his mind and concentrated on eating. He would have to take medicine later.

After finishing the meal, Li Xingruo glanced at her phone habitually. She didn't see Zhang Songnian's reply and immediately frowned.

Li Xingruo originally wanted to ask Zhang Songnian what he was doing, but he hesitated and finally put down his phone.

What he is doing is none of his business?

Li Xingruo's agent happened to come back from outside. When he saw Li Xingruo eating in the lobby, he immediately came over and said happily: "Hey, Xingruo, you are back. I also said that if you don't come back, I will go to Lin'an to arrest you."

Drag it back."

"The results of Tang Xiaoai's album were mediocre. Now the company seems to have thought of us again. Today they specially called me over to ask me to get you back. The company's public relations department has issued a statement regarding what happened last time.

The company will pursue those who spread rumors to the end."

Li Xingruo curled his lips and said with some disdain: "Then you ask the company to find out those who are behind the trouble, and then give each of them a lawyer's letter."

"Hey, that's how the entertainment industry is. Even in the same company, there will be this kind of overt and covert fighting. You have to get used to it, Xingruo." Zhang Lan said with some seriousness.

"I'll get used to it, but that doesn't mean I'm easy to bully." Li Xingruo said expressionlessly.

Zhang Lan nodded and agreed with Li Xingruo's neither humble nor overbearing attitude and said: "That's natural. The company has asked us to go to the company tomorrow. They should arrange a new album for you. Take this opportunity.

Maybe you can ask for an explanation."

After Zhang Lan finished speaking, he said with some seriousness: "Your next album is very important. You must tell the company openly. Otherwise, if the performance of this kind of album is not satisfactory, not only will the company give up on you, but the fans may also have a negative attitude toward you."

I also lost confidence.”

Li Xingruo waved his hand, not wanting to talk about this topic, and immediately said: "Let's talk about tomorrow's matters tomorrow. I'm a little sleepy after taking medicine, so I'm going to rest first."

Before Zhang Lan could continue, Li Xingruo got up and went back to the room.

Zhang Lan was left with a confused look on her face. Why did she feel that Li Xingruo was a little different today?

Li Xingruo was lying on the bed, looking at the ceiling, and sighed. Zhang Songnian seemed to be right, being a star seemed tiring.

Thinking of Zhang Lan's words just now, Li Xingruo started to feel a little unsure. Is it his own strength or good luck that makes him popular?

The first year of his debut was extremely smooth, and his two albums in one year both reached the level of platinum records, successfully making himself popular.

But the third album was a failure. Fans didn't buy it, and the industry didn't recognize it either.

Next came the fourth album, and Li Xingruo started to feel a little unconfident and self-doubt.
