    Chapter 27 You will stand taller than me

    Seeing Xi Nian's successful return, everyone couldn't help but be overjoyed and gathered around them: "Did you get the necklace?"

    Xi Nian was out of breath due to his extreme speed. He opened his palms and showed the necklace to everyone. Then he put it together with the one on Teacher Min's hand, walked to the machine lock and opened the door: "Bai Yicheng is an undercover agent, I locked him up."It’s on the second floor.”

    Qiao Zhi was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then said indignantly: "Look, I even said that I am no longer an undercover agent, but you don't believe me!"

    Kong Xi glanced at Xi Nian: "You have guessed it a long time ago, no wonder he deliberately dragged Bai Yicheng back together."

    Smart, she hasn't met such a double business online guest for a long time, but saying these words in front of the camera was too offensive, so Kong Xi remained silent.

    While speaking, Xi Nian had already opened the machine lock with a click. With the opening of the last door, light finally flooded into the dark secret room. At the same time, a cold game prompt sounded in everyone's ears.

    "The game is over, congratulations on your successful escape from "Ivory Tower""

    After staying in a dark environment for a long time, and suddenly going out to touch the sun, everyone's eyes felt like they were going to be blinded. Xi Nian squinted his eyes. It took him a long time to adapt, but he saw Qiao Zhi sitting on the ground limply.He started wiping tears from his red eyes: "What a crappy show, I won't come again next time!"

    The director's face turned green when he heard this. Is it easy for him to arrange these mechanisms? Not only did one guest fail to be eliminated, but he also got an undercover agent, and now he still has to be scolded.

    Bai Yicheng was also released from the secret room by the staff. When he came up, he punched Xi Nian lightly on the shoulder. He was angry and laughed at the same time: "Good guy, looking at you who is silent, you are too cruel.Bar."

    Xi Nian's full of scheming has never been seen through, so it is too easy for people to ignore his existence. No one expected that the No. 2 team that was most likely to die would survive to the end under his leadership. Teacher Min shook his head and laughed.A person who keeps preaching hard will be formidable.

    After experiencing a thrilling secret room adventure, everyone's relationship has become closer invisibly, and they have all left each other's contact information.When Xi Nian walked out of the shooting location, he saw a car parked outside, and a man wearing a baseball cap was leaning against the car waiting. It was Lu Xingzhe.

    From a distance, Lu Xingzhe seemed to have seen him, and immediately walked over, then took a bottle of water and handed it to Xi Nian: "Finally, you're out, are you tired?"

    Xi Nian took the water, unscrewed the bottle cap and took a sip, with a smile hidden in his deep eyes: "Don't you ask me whether I won or lost?"

    Lu Xingzhe didn't care, kicked the stone at his feet, and muttered: "It's enough if you come out, who cares whether you win or lose."

    He always didn't care about these things. What mattered was the person in front of him.

    Xi Nian paused after hearing this, as if he wanted to say something. At this moment, Qiao Zhi walked over from the side, handed the phone to Xi Nian and said, "Add me as a friend, I'll leave you alone."

    When everyone left their contact information just now, Qiao Zhi went to the car to change clothes, and now she thought of adding friends.

    Xi Nian glanced at Lu Xingzhe and saw that the latter had no reaction. Then he took out his mobile phone to scan the QR code for verification. Qiao Zhi probably felt that he had a good rapport with him, and it was rare that she didn't hold a grudge. She even asked him to have dinner with him next time: "Come out and have sex some other time.", introduce the beauty to you."

    As she spoke, she suddenly noticed Lu Xingzhe, who had not spoken from the beginning to the end. She glanced at him and said with interest, "Hey, is this your assistant? He's quite handsome."

    Xi Nian raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, then raised his hand to lower the brim of Lu Xingzhe's hat, pushed him into the car, and said to Qiao Zhi, "You can also hire a handsome guy. I have something else to do, so I'll go back to the hotel first."

    After saying that, he got into the back seat of the car and closed the door behind his back.

    Lu Xingzhe sat inside, raising the brim of his hat slightly, glancing at the driver in front of him, and then at Xi Nian: "You and Qiao Zhi seem to be quite familiar?"

    Xi Nian and Qiao Zhi are the type of bad friends. They are familiar with each other, and they are not familiar with each other. In the previous life, they had to use guns and sticks to make fun of Lu Xingzhe.This jealous person: "I'm not familiar with him, but you saw it, I just added him as a friend."

    Although Lu Xingzhe was suspicious, he didn't doubt Xi Nian's words most of the time. Xi Nian said before that he didn't like Qiao Zhi, and he believed it. Hearing this, he used the cover of his clothes to gently scratch Xi Nian's legs with his fingertips.Back and forth: "It doesn't matter if you just added a friend, maybe we'll get to know each other later."

    In fact, he still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but Lu Xingzhe didn't show it. He always smiled in front of Xi Nian.

    Smile when you are happy and smile when you are unhappy.

    Because of the driver in the front seat, Xi Nian did not do anything. He just leaned back on the chair and closed his eyes to rest. He held down Lu Xingzhe's hand that was moving around on his lap, and then opened the other person's fingertips one by one, and slowlyButton.

    Lu Xingzhe's hands were not as beautiful as his face. The joints on his fingertips were covered with thin calluses and there were some old injuries. Compared with his current absurd and wanton life, they seemed to be the only traces that could prove his past hardships and struggles.

    Xi Nian's cold heart suddenly softened for a moment, even if it was just for a moment.

    After arriving at the hotel where they were staying, the driver left and arranged to pick them up at noon the next day to take them to the airport. As soon as Lu Xingzhe opened the door, before he could put his things away, a hot body suddenly covered him behind him, and then he wasHe held his waist and pressed against the wall.

    Lu Xingzhe knew it was Xi Nian, so he didn't resist. The curtains in the room were tightly drawn, refusing to allow any light to enter. He stared at Xi Nian's face, which was so close at hand. He could outline the man's features just from memory.

    "grass,"

    Lu Xingzhe held Xi Nian's face and suddenly cursed in a low voice. The corners of his lips widened uncontrollably and he said jokingly: "You are too fast, how can you do what I want to do in advance?"”

    He thought that the year of Bidong was not just a matter of one or two days.

    Xi Nian couldn't stand Lu Xingzhe's arrogant look. He lowered his eyes silently, then turned his head and bit his fair earlobe. The painful and itchy feeling spread all over his body in an instant, and even his tailbone began to feel numb.

    Lu Xingzhe groaned, and there seemed to be a little water in his eyes. He raised his head feebly. He was tortured by this feeling and was a little unsteady. His fragile Adam's apple was exposed to the air, rolling up and down, and said hoarsely: "Hey, I am your fan after all, and you treat me like this?"

    Fucking Xi Nian’s bite hurts and itches, it’s terrible.

    When Xi Nian heard this, he thought of his abnormal fans again. Lu Xingzhe took advantage of his daze to free his ears, then pinched Xi Nian's hand and placed it on his lower back. There was only a gap between him and Xi Nian.A thin layer of fabric: "Do you remember..."

    His tone was a bit lazy, and he deliberately reminded: "You signed here."

    Xi Nian's memory was easily stirred up: "What, you want me to sign another one for you?"

    Lu Xingzhe was provocative and said, "Hey, if you have the ability, just sign."

    Countless times in the past, it has been proven that Xi Nian is not only capable, but also very capable. However, Lu Xingzhe always likes to deliberately provoke him, and in the end he cried for his father and mother, and couldn't even get out of bed.

    After a fight, both of them had no energy left. Lu Xingzhe's breathing was up and down, and he lay on the bed and stretched himself out. When he heard the message on his phone vibrating, he managed to muster up the strength to reach for the bedside table. The quilt accidentally slipped halfway, and his lower backThere is a bright hickey, the kind that will never disappear within a short period of time.

    Lu Xingzhe's eyes were dazzled. He turned on his phone and looked at it, only to find that it was a message from Sun Ming, saying that Xi Nian had accepted a guest role in a Republic of China drama, and the filming would start immediately, and he would have to join the set the day after tomorrow.

    The guest role, to put it nicely, is a guest role, but to put it worse, it is just a soy sauce, and the filming location is in the film and television city. It takes at least four hours to fly from C City. Shanxing is unwilling to renew the contract because of Xi Nian, which is clearly intentional.Toss him.

    Lu Xingzhe frowned and looked at the script, only to find that it was a cannon fodder character who didn't even appear in three episodes. He typed a line and was about to say that Xi Nian was unavailable, but his phone was taken away.

    Xi Nian didn't know when he woke up. He looked at the chat history, and then said to Lu Xingzhe, "Take it, I'll catch the flight tomorrow, I should be able to make it in time."

    Lu Xingzhe leaned on the bed and said nothing. He secretly felt that Xi Nian should play the leading male role instead of such a small role. His voice was still broken and hoarse after a love affair. He paused and said, "You just finished recording the show, didn't you?"I have to travel back and forth for a small role, and the pay is not even worth the plane ticket."

    Xi Nian knew that this was just a cannon fodder role, but if he didn't want to be poked in the back, he had to at least have a good work. He couldn't play the leading role from the beginning with his current celebrity position: "Take it, it won't take much time anyway.".”

    He seems to be well versed in this process of climbing up from the bottom.

    Xi Nian didn't feel anything. When he was not famous in his previous life, he also played a lot of small roles. What's more, since he doesn't have any works now, if he doesn't want to be scolded by netizens, he has to accept anything.

    There was a faint ruthlessness in his heart, and he didn't want to be looked down upon by others and be reduced to dust.

    Seeing this, Lu Xingzhe fell into a subtle silence. Finally, he stopped trying to stop him and sent a message back to Sun Ming. Then he changed his ticket and whispered to Xi Nian: "You should get some sleep. We have been recording the program for a day. TomorrowWe still have to catch a morning flight.”

    Xi Nian was indeed a little tired. Hearing this, he pulled him into his arms and rested his chin on the top of his head. After a long while, he suddenly asked: "Do you think there will be a day when I can survive?"

    He relied on Lu Xingzhe in his previous life, who should he rely on in this life?

    Yourself?

    Xi Nian is actually not sure.

    Hearing this, Lu Xingzhe opened his eyes in his arms, moved quietly, and said with a smile, "You can do it."

    He kissed Xi Nian's chin and lowered his eyes: "You will stand taller than me."

    One day in the future, Xi Nian will stand taller than others...

    Lu Xingzhe seems to believe this more than anyone else.

    Xi Nian seemed to be extremely tired. He closed his eyes and made no sound. After a while, his breathing became calmer, as if he had fallen asleep.Lu Xingzhe didn't move. He checked the time after a long time, then quietly put on his clothes and got out of bed, moving lightly without making any sound.

    The termination of the contract between Xi Nian and Shanxing must be put on the agenda as soon as possible, but who will sign the contract afterwards is another question. The artist's traffic and celebrity status are the chips. The more chips, the better the treatment.

    Lu Xingzhe sat on the sofa and turned on the computer. The weak light from the screen shone on his face, which was a little uncertain. He quickly browsed through the recently selected lists of artists from several entertainment companies, and finally found a few newcomers who had just been promoted by China Arts.He was poached by a rival company, but because he suppressed the news, there was no news outside.

    "Secret Room Decoded" will be broadcast in a few days. This program has a fixed audience flow. No matter what happens then, Xi Nian will gain another wave of popularity. If there is news of contract termination at that time, give Zhongyi a hint, the contract benefits can be improved by more than one level.

    Lu Xingzhe's mind was rapidly thinking of ways to maximize profits. From the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw Xi Nian turning over on the bed, turning off the computer calmly, then getting up and walking to the closet to pretend to pack his luggage.

    Xi Nian was sleeping lightly, but he woke up. He lifted the quilt and got out of bed. He saw Lu Xingzhe packing clothes. He turned on the lamp at hand and said, "I'll pack it with you."

    Lu Xingzhe pouted: "This is the job of the assistant."

    Xi Nian's hair was messy. When he looked over, he looked with an indescribable decadent handsomeness. He lifted up the hem of Lu Xingzhe's clothes with his fingertips and glanced casually: "Which artist have you ever seen sleeping with an assistant?"

    "Hey!" Lu Xingzhe stretched out his hand to cover it, but after a moment's delay, after hearing his words, he clapped his fingers and counted him maliciously: "That's too much. Do you know Cen Qiuming, the movie star with the most online resources in the cinema?, had an affair with his female assistant, and..."

    Before he finished speaking, Xi Nian covered his mouth, and the latter looked at him with a half-smile: "You know quite a lot."

    Lu Xingzhe coughed twice in embarrassment and said nothing.

    Xi Nian let go of him and stuffed the clothes into the suitcase: "Next time if you talk so much, you can pack it yourself."

    Anyway, he had never seen someone as energetic as Lu Xingzhe. He was always jumping up and down after going to bed. He didn't know who he was insulting.

    When Lu Xingzhe heard this, he didn't argue with him. He simply stopped and sat on the sofa. He huddled up as usual. His fingertips unconsciously touched the hickey on his lower back. His tone sounded somewhat innocent in the dark night.He muttered: "What if it's gone?"

    When Xi Nian heard the words, he looked up and met his sparkling eyes. He was stunned for a second before he realized what Lu Xingzhe was talking about. He suddenly felt that the person in front of him was a little childish: "If it's gone, I'll make up for it."

    After Xi Nian finished speaking, he packed his suitcase and finally made sure that nothing was missing. He said to Lu Xingzhe, "Go to bed early. We have to catch a flight tomorrow."

    Lu Xingzhe lay motionless on the sofa, his back and back ached. He bit his fingertips, then stretched out his hand to Xi Nian and said, "You hug me?"

    Xi Nian thought to himself that the person he hired was not an assistant, but an ancestor. He glanced at Lu Xingzhe, then walked to the sofa, leaned over and hugged him. The breath on his clothes was light and faint, as usual, but seemed to be more intense than usual.Some temperature.

    This person is still very light.

    It was so light that Xi Nian saved ten points of strength every time, but could only use seven points.

    Lu Xingzhe's chin rested on his shoulder. It was pointed and a bit harsh, but it was soft to the touch. His hair inadvertently brushed his ears, causing a slight itch.

    During the short walk from the sofa to the bed, Xi Nian heard Lu Xingzhe say something in the dark in a daze: "Xi Nian, it would be nice if I wasn't a paparazzi."

    Xi Nian paused and then asked him: "If you don't become a paparazzi, what would you like to do?"

    Lu Xingzhe lay on his shoulder and said with a smile: "As an investor, I will let you play the male lead. You can play whatever you want."
