    Chapter 14 He hesitated, fearing that his thoughts would fall

    It was getting dark, and the rain that had fallen all day finally eased, but there was water everywhere on the road. Lu Xingzhe looked around first, and then his eyes fell on Xi Nian: "Let's find a place to chat."

    Xi Nian's identity was sensitive and he didn't want to be recognized. Hearing this, he said, "There is a cafe opposite."

    Lu Xingzhe raised his head slightly, and the shadow of the brim of his hat was shifted by half, revealing his bright red lips and pointed chin. He wore a white casual shirt loosely on his body, with thin shoulder lines: "If you have any good coffee, I can come to your house anyway."Downstairs, don’t you want to lead a way?”

    The tone was natural, even a little familiar.

    Xi Nian did not agree: "I refuse."

    Lu Xingzhe was very rogue. He patted his leg that had not yet taken off the gauze, with a narrow smile on his lips: "What should I do? My leg hurts and I can't walk. If you carry me to the cafe, I don't care."

    Xi Nian was indifferent, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone: "Why didn't you complain that your legs hurt when you followed me?"

    Lu Xingzhe: "Of course it's different when you're in a car. Just step on the brake and accelerator. Walking is a big deal that hurts your muscles and bones."

    He folded his arms and looked like a rogue, making people want to push him to the ground and beat him.Xi Nian was silent for a few seconds after hearing this, then turned around and walked towards home without saying a word.

    Lu Xingzhe smiled half-heartedly when he saw this, then he lowered the brim of his hat and looked around to make sure there was no suspicious person taking photos, and then he limped to follow.

    Xi Nian deliberately walked very fast, and even took a few detours. When he reached the elevator, he finally looked back and saw that Lu Xingzhe had been following him, only a few steps slower than him.

    The elevator has not arrived and is still descending slowly.

    Lu Xingzhe limped to his side and leaned against the wall. He didn't know whether it was because he was walking too fast and his breathing was a little heavy. He sighed, then looked at Xi Nian with a smile: "Did you take a detour on purpose?.”

    Xi Nian rarely saw him frustrated and asked back: "So what?"

    Lu Xingzhe looks like a smiling fox most of the time. It is rare to see him get really angry, but he is never soft-hearted when trying to trick people behind their backs: "It's not that great, but I've never lost anyone I want to follow."

    The elevator arrived with a ding, but there was no one inside. Xi Nian walked in and pressed the button, and asked casually, "So you are a paparazzi?"

    Lu Xingzhe then remembered that he hadn't told Xi Nian his identity yet, and he hadn't even formally introduced his name. He was silent for a rare moment, and then said slowly: "You can tell me so."

    He probably knew that his reputation was too bad, so he didn't answer directly.

    Xi Nian has a strong sense of private territory and rarely brings others to his home. He took out the key and opened the door, paused, and felt like he was inviting a wolf into the house. He wanted to say something, but he didn't say it.

    Xi Nian was a little kid, and the place he lived in was not very luxurious. It was barely big enough for people. Lu Xingzhe looked around and found that the furnishings were deserted. He looked at the sofa and said, "Do you mind if I sit down?"

    Xi Nian opened the refrigerator and took out two bottles of drinks: "If I mind, will you keep standing?"

    Lu Xingzhe held his injured leg and sat down on the sofa: "Of course not."

    Xi Nian placed a can of lemon tea in front of him, and his breath left as soon as he touched it: "If you want to discuss business with me, tell me."

    Lu Xingzhe tilted his head and looked at him, his fingertips slowly caressing the end of his eyebrows. The light from the top fell on his body. There was an indescribable beauty about his whole body. He suddenly became serious, which made people a little uncomfortable: "You have been offended recently.many people."

    Xi Nian sat down beside him, and a name quickly appeared in his mind: "Su Ge?"

    Lu Xingzhe said: "No, it's his manager. Jiang Lun has bribed many paparazzi to collect dirt on you."

    Su Ge is a little puppet at best. The one who really has the skills is Jiang Lun. He has been working at Shanxing Entertainment for nearly ten years, but all the artists under him have become famous. It is obvious that his strength is not easy to defeat.

    Xi Nian was thoughtful, but didn't show it on his face. He crossed his legs and leaned back on the sofa: "So what business do you want to discuss with me?"

    He was secretly relieved at this moment. Fortunately, he was stopped by the system when he was trying to clean up Su Ge, otherwise he would have become a hidden danger today.

    Lu Xingzhe took out an envelope from the camera bag he was carrying, waved it in front of Xi Nian's eyes, and said pointedly: "I have a lot of cards, I just want to see how much you can offer me."

    Xi Nian never doubted Lu Xingzhe's ability as a paparazzi. When he heard this, he knew that the other party must have something big. He stretched out his hand to take the envelope, but it didn't twitch. He raised his eyes slightly and saw Lu Xingzhe looking at him with a half-smile.Hold yourself.

    Xi Nian paused, and a dark light flashed across his eyes. His hand holding the envelope dropped half an inch, and covered Lu Xingzhe's cold fingertips without any trace. The corners of his lips were slightly hooked. When he smiled, it made people blush and heartbeat.: "You have to let me see the goods before I know what they are worth."

    Lu Xingzhe glanced at the hand he was holding, and the strength on his fingertips unconsciously relaxed: "I didn't say I wouldn't let you see it."

    The envelope fell into Xi Nian's hand. When he opened it, he saw a thick pile of photos inside. It was roughly estimated that there were more than thirty photos. There were close-ups of Suge's hands during the game, and there were also photos of him claiming to be injured after being miserable on Weibo.Pictures of bruises on wrists, and...

    Su Ge deliberately used boiling water to burn Xi Nian's photos in the lounge.

    Seeing that Xi Nian seemed stunned, Lu Xingzhe held his phone and turned it around in circles: "The original video has been destroyed by Jiang Lun, but luckily, I have a backup."

    After the second round of the knockout round that day, he followed Xi Nian to the lounge. Unexpectedly, he heard the conversation between him and Su Ge. From then on, he became suspicious of Xi Nian's injury. In addition, it happened not long ago.The evidence was easily found.

    Su Ge did something wrong and did not dare to tell Jiang Lun. Later, he was afraid that the matter would be exposed. Even though Jiang Lun had quickly erased all the evidence, it was still a step too late.

    Xi Nian's popularity is on the rise. If these information are exposed, it will be a huge help to Wu Yi, and it can also defeat Su Ge, which can be said to be a multi-purpose achievement.

    The photos were probably just printed, and the edges were a bit sharp. Xi Nian slowly gathered the photos and stacked them into a neat pile. His climbing nature was hard to change. At this time, he had to admit that this business was really exciting.Heartbeat.

    The system was afraid that he would follow the same path and deliberately warned him, but Su Ge had indeed done these things and was not fabricated black information. The system had no right to interfere. The blue light flashed by and then dimmed.

    The wall clock on the wall was ticking. It seemed like a long time had passed, and it seemed like only a few minutes had passed. Xi Nian put the photo into the envelope and his voice sounded clearly in the room: "Make a price."

    Lu Xingzhe was not surprised by his reaction. He held his chin and thought for a moment, then deliberately set a price that was not affordable for Xi Nian at present: "Video and photos, five hundred thousand."

    Celebrities make good money, but that's only for the popular ones. Ordinary young artists not only have to spend money on packaging, but also have to treat guests to dinner in order to accept the show. It may not be any better than working as a worker. The house is rented, let alone fifty nowWhether or not we can get together 10,000 or 200,000 seats a year is a question.

    Xi Nian said bluntly: "No."

    Lu Xingzhe seemed to feel a little regretful. He stood up from the sofa, then leaned close to Xi Nian. He put one hand on his side and held the envelope with the other. His voice was hoarse and ambiguous: "Although I want to help you, I can't help you."

    No one would push out the benefits obtained, not to mention the hardest thing to wait for in the entertainment industry is opportunity. Xi Nian's thoughts were confused for a moment, but no one could see it on his face. He pinched Lu Xingzhe's chin and pressed his fingertips against him.Delicate and smooth skin: "...Really, but I can't see your sincerity."

    The two of them were so close that their breaths blended together without distinguishing each other. The breath on Xi Nian's clothes was cold and indifferent, as if he had returned to the night of the car crash.

    Lu Xingzhe deliberately moved closer to him. Seeing that Xi Nian did not dodge like before, the curve of his lips deepened: "Tsk, I dragged a wounded leg all the way to see you. Isn't that sincere enough?"

    Xi Nian's thoughts are getting more and more confusing. His desire for fame and fortune drives him forward, but his reason advises him to avoid the cunning paparazzi in front of him, but no one should tell him what to choose in this life.

    Seeing that he was silent for a long time, Lu Xingzhe looked at him and said, "Actually, I'm not interested in money."

    As a paparazzi who only has interests in his eyes, this sentence is of course a lie. However, he is now far more interested in Xi Nian than money.

    Growing up, no one taught Lu Xingzhe what was good and evil, right and wrong, which fostered his surly character. He was used to doing whatever he wanted, and he didn't think it was deviant to be interested in a man.

    Of course Xi Nian understood what he was talking about. His right hand holding the envelope tightened slightly and he didn't let go for a long time. He stood up from the sofa, looked directly into Lu Xingzhe's eyes, and said in a low voice, "Then what are you interested in?"

    Hearing this, Lu Xingzhe slowly approached his ear. This time he was so close that it was no different from cheek to cheek: "...you."

    He said this word so lightly, but it was different from the usual laughter, with a rare seriousness.

    Lu Xingzhe said, "Xi Nian, I can help you become famous."

    "No one will bully you in the future, and no one can throw dirty water on you. The glory Su Ge has now, you will have one day in the future."

    He spoke each word with a bewildering tone. When the last word fell, a string in Xi Nian's mind seemed to snap. His hand holding Lu Xingzhe suddenly tightened uncontrollably, and then without warningShe pulled him over, her chest pressed against hers, and her heartbeat vibrated.

    Xi Nian knew he was telling the truth.

    In his previous life, this person had personally brought him to the altar, but when he fell later, he was also the one who dragged him down.

    Xi Nian thought he didn't care about this matter, but it wasn't until today that he discovered that there was a thorn in his heart and he had become shackles.

    Lu Xingzhe didn't expect Xi Nian's actions. He was wrapped in the man's hot breath. He was at a loss for a rare moment and his ears turned slightly red.

    He lowered his eyes, and his eyelashes cast a shadow under his eyes. After a moment, he looked up at him, as if to promise something: "Xinian, I will not harm you."
