Chapter 7 Testing

Xi Nian didn't know that he had been recognized by Lu Xingzhe, so he drove back to the apartment where he lived late at night. This place was arranged by the company. It was not high-end and could barely accommodate people.

It was less than two hours before dawn, and Xi Nian was completely sleepless. He took a look at the news online and found that Su Ge's Weibo post about selling out was being retweeted like crazy, and the number of likes soared.

whispering sound.

Xi Nian thought to himself that this was the first time he saw someone more shameless than himself.

The bedroom was very small, not as good as the villa he lived in after becoming famous in his previous life. Xi Nian lay down on the sofa, with one hand behind his head and the other injured hand hanging quietly on the edge, his fingertips almost touching the floor, his skin and fleshThe burning pain was like a gangrene attached to the bone and could not be shaken off.

But there's not much he can do right now.

There is no popularity and no money. Faced with this situation, most of the time we can only choose silence.

This feeling of powerlessness is more unacceptable than any setback.

Xi Nian closed his eyes and counted the time quietly. At dawn in the morning, he fumbled for his phone and took out his phone. As expected, he saw the entry updated. After a night of fermentation, the matter of Sugar being injured and missing the game had reached its peak.The second most popular search, and the first hot search is about the cheating scandal of the well-known film and television actor Jian Yihong’s late-night secret meeting with his mistress.

Needless to say, it must be Lu Xingzhe's handiwork.

Xi Nian moved his numb legs, then stood up and opened the curtains. The moment the skylight poured in, he subconsciously closed his eyes. It took him a long time to recover. The interior furnishings were all in sight. The minimalist tones of black and white and gray, and the ownerSame, cold and hard everywhere.

The entertainment industry is a place where you can climb up by stepping on others. Either the east wind prevails over the west wind, or the west wind overpowers the east wind. He understands this truth better than anyone else.Xi Nian's fingertips slid on the phone screen twice, and finally dialed the number that he was already familiar with.

At that time, Lu Xingzhe had not yet left the hospital. When he heard the ringtone of the incoming call, he raised his eyebrows and stared at the unfamiliar numbers on the screen. He folded his arms indifferently with an expression that was confusing, but in the end he pressed the answer button.His voice was always hoarse and lazy: "Who?"

He could probably guess who called, but he asked deliberately.

Xi Nian stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and looked through the glass, just in time to see the dawn break in the east. He put one hand in his pocket and slowly uttered three words from his lips: "Your uncle."

"Your uncle!" Lu Xingzhe scolded him directly out of reflex.

Xi Nian smiled: "Now you know who I am?"

He had a deep voice that was as unforgettable as those eyes.

Lu Xingzhe glanced at the screen of his mobile phone and said nothing. He liked to speculate in the worst direction about everything. Ever since he discovered Xi Nian's identity yesterday, he felt that there must be a reason for the other party to approach him, or there must be a certain reason.Purpose.

An unknown little star, a notorious paparazzi.

If these two kinds of people get together, nothing good will happen.

Lu Xingzhe is also a good actor. He didn't mention that he had already guessed Nian's identity and said casually: "I've never seen your face. How do I know who you are? Are you the kindhearted person who saved me yesterday?"

The last three words sounded somewhat meaningful to the ears of both parties.

Xi Nian never thought he was a good person: "It's not important."

Lu Xingzhe tapped his fingertips regularly on the edge of the bed: "Then what is important?"

He lowered his eyes and waited for Xi Nian to reveal his purpose. He didn't know why, but he suddenly felt a little uninterested, but he felt there was no need to make a fuss. After all, few people in the entertainment industry were clean.

Just like the sun rises from the east and sets from the west day after day, if there is no external interference, even if Xi Nian is reborn, he will still repeat the old path of his previous life and move forward along the destined trajectory.

To put it simply, a dog cannot change its habit of eating shit.

"I have a business deal with you. I'll give you double the price if you reveal dirt on Su Ge."

Xi Nian's stomach was full of evil and the water was darker than ink. He still kept trying to take advantage of Lu Xingzhe. However, before he could say these words, his throat seemed to be stuck with something and he couldn't make any sound.The shock amplified in an instant, and cracks appeared in Gujing's usually smooth expression, which made him look confused and uncertain.

A blue ball of light quietly appeared in front of him, and the rigid mechanical voice sounded a little serious: "Dear host, this behavior violates Article 32 of the Interstellar Moral Transformation Regulations. Please stop instigating immediately, otherwise you will be punished with electric shock..”

"..."

damn it.

If Xi Nian hadn't been speechless, he would have cursed. He looked at the system with cold eyes, and there was an obvious darkness in his eyes.

The system had no room for concessions on this kind of thing, but it still hesitated for a moment under such a look, and reminded in a low voice: "This is wrong, we must reform and start a new life."

After speaking, the gag was released.

On the other end of the phone, Lu Xingzhe couldn't hear his answer for a long time. He tapped the back of the phone with his fingertips, made a low sound, and raised his eyebrows: "Why don't you speak?"

Xi Nian: "..."

System No. 009 did not leave. Its small body floated up and down in mid-air. From time to time, weak blue-purple current flashed around its body. The sizzling sound made people's ears numb, conveying a silent threat.

It is instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Xi Nian was silent for a moment, and finally decided that a good man would not suffer the immediate disadvantages. He swallowed the words that came to his mouth again, paused, and asked aloud: "...how is the leg?"

Lu Xingzhe waited for a long time, but he didn't expect that this was what he was going to say. He asked with unclear meaning: "Is this why you called so early in the morning?"

Under the watchful eye of the system, Xi Nian couldn't do anything. It was probably because the sun in front of the window was too bright. He sat down on the sofa again, making a slight sound when his body sank, and said casually: "Well, I'm afraid you're lame..”

Lu Xingzhe: "..."

He held the phone and said nothing, but a thin layer of sweat broke out on his palms. He was a little uneasy by this strange emotion, and whispered in a low voice: "It's none of your business if you're lame."

Xi Nian's ears were pointed: "You are lame and no one will take care of you."

After all, Lu Xingzhe's parents had died long ago.

Lu Xingzhe curled his lips when he heard this. He was suspicious by nature. After that brief and subtle emotion, he began to repeat Xi Nian's words without leaving any trace: "I owe you what happened yesterday. If you need any help, just ask."

Of course, he may not be able to help just by asking.

Xi Nian really had a lot of things that Lu Xingzhe needed to do, but he glanced at 009 who was hanging next to him and could only suppress those thoughts temporarily. His voice came through the microphone, slightly distorted: "No need., take good care of yourself."

After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone, neatly and simply, without making any request that Lu Xingzhe expected, as if he was simply concerned about his injury.

Lu Xingzhe was stunned for a moment when he heard the beeping busy tone from the other end. He came back to his senses and looked at the screen of his phone. He didn't know what he was thinking. After a while, he moved his fingertips slightly and saved Xi Nian's number.

Tomorrow is the second round of trials for the men's archery group of the Star Games. It's just a meeting. How difficult it is. He doesn't believe that he won't go for a long time.

The entertainment industry has not been very peaceful recently. Netizens were already in an uproar over Suge's defeat in the competition. Who would have thought that Jian Yihong's mistress at a nightclub had cheated on her again, and she almost choked to death after eating a few big mouthfuls of melon.

Lu Xingzhe has been a paparazzi for so many years and has never seen any trouble. As soon as he looked at Su Ge's Weibo, he knew that he was deliberately being miserable. The injury was most likely fake. He probably did it to save face. Only fans were stillIn the dark.

Although the comments section was full of one-sided scoldings for Xi Nian, he was too cool to stand up to it, and few fans spoke up to defend him. Those people stopped scolding when they got tired, and now more and more people are making sarcastic remarks——

Ridiculing him that he got the first place by luck.

Lu Xingzhe didn't know what he thought of, so he picked up his phone and sent a message. Ten minutes later, he received a video in his personal mailbox. It was an unedited version of the match between Xi Nian and Su Ge.

The picture quality is a high-definition version, which is much clearer than some blurry clips circulated on the Internet. Lu Xingzhe dragged the progress bar and did not miss any detail. In the end, he found that Su Ge's hand did not show any signs of injury during the game. It was in vain.Jingjing, it doesn’t match the bruised and purple pictures posted on Weibo at all.

Xi Nian, on the other hand, has been adjusting his posture without any trace in the second half of the game. The action of drawing the bow with his right hand is a little sluggish to the naked eye, but you can't tell it unless you look carefully.

"Tsk," Lu Xingzhe unexpectedly remembered the gauze wrapped on Xi Nian's hand, curled his lips, and said to himself, "Isn't it you who was injured..."

There were 32 contestants in the men's archery group, and nearly half of them were eliminated in the first round of eliminations. In the evening, Xi Nian received the promotion list from Sun Ming.

"This is your schedule for tomorrow. Remember not to be late."

Sun Ming felt that his manager was really frustrated. He had never seen an artist like Xi Nian who was so difficult to discipline in most of his life. His tone was also quite unkind, and he kept chattering: "I told you not to win against Su Ge. NowWell, what’s the use of his fans tearing you up everywhere and trying to gain some momentum? What’s the use?! The big boss called me yesterday to give me a lecture. Do you know why? It’s because you are short-sighted!”

Xi Nian was not one to bow his head and accept scolding at all. He took out the magazine on the coffee table and turned a page casually: "Short-sightedness is better than being blind."

"You——!" Sun Ming hesitated after hearing this. He felt that Xi Nian had become more and more aggressive recently, and his eyes almost popped out of his head on the other end of the phone: "Xi Nian, you have grown up, haven't you?!Don’t cry and beg me for help!”

Xi Nian said, "Well, don't worry, I won't ask for anything."

From now on, bridges will return to bridges, roads will return to their own roads, and their perfume will not violate the spirit of cleaning toilets.
