Li Xuan failed to go home that night as promised.By the time he left the office, it was almost dawn.

When going downstairs, he planned to go to a cake shop not far away to buy a rose condensed milk cake for Sheng Min's breakfast, and then drive back, maybe sleep for two hours.

He raised his wrist and looked at his watch. In less than four hours, a new day of recording was about to start.As he walked, he listed in his mind what he needed to do today, including confirming the special effects design with Chu Tianheng, and taking the time to call Zhu Zhou and ask him to send the money to Qingshui Lane...

The sanitation worker began to clean the road, and there was a regular rustling sound as the broom was waved. The software park, which had been silent for a few hours, would soon be up and running again.

Li Xuan took out his mask and put it on, and walked towards the parking lot at a faster pace, but just as he walked out of the gate of the software park, he saw Sheng Min.

The sun is about to come out, the boundary between night and day is blurred, but the moon is still hanging and refuses to end,

There was a humid breath in the air, and it was slightly cool.Sheng Min put on an off-white shirt over his light-colored T-shirt.Sitting on a bench by the side of the open-air parking lot, white acacia flowers behind the chair fell on his hair and shoulders. He held a piece of bread in his hand and broke it to feed the birds.

As if in response, Li Xuan stood opposite him and looked at him for a while, then Sheng Min suddenly turned his head.Seeing him, he smiled, scattered the remaining crumbs of bread on the ground, got up and walked towards Li Xuan.

The bird flew up behind him, Li Xuan was in a daze and Sheng Min also flew to his side like a white bird.

"Why are you here?"

"You didn't come back." Sheng Min stopped one step ahead of him.

"Why don't you go up?"

"I'm afraid you're busy."

Li Xuan coughed: "There are a lot of things."

"Yeah." Sheng Min nodded, "Have you dealt with it?"

"alright."

"That's good." Sheng Min looked up at him and wrinkled his nose slightly, "You look tired. Are you smoking?...Smoking less."

He didn't sleep all night, and his face was haggard no matter what.In fact, Sheng Min's complexion was not very good, there was a layer of blue under his eyes.

"Okay." Li Xuan avoided answering, and asked him instead, "How long have you been here?"

"Not long, just came."

But the hem of his clothes was obviously wet with dew, showing a little transparent color.Li Xuan didn't expose it: "Are you hungry? Are you going to have breakfast?"

Sheng Min thought for a while: "On the way I came, I saw a shop with raw fish porridge around the corner."

"Next to the porridge shop is a chain of cake shops that you often buy." Li Xuan said.

Sheng Min did not notice, and blinked his eyes.

"Let's go." Li Xuan smiled, and reached out to pick off a fallen flower on his shoulder, "Come with me to order some porridge first, and then we'll go buy cakes."

Instead of repeating yesterday's opening remarks, Li Xuan can save a few words in today's recording.In the part of announcing the players' grades, the trainees who got A covered their mouths to express their surprise and joy, while the trainees with low grades had tears in their eyes, saying that they would definitely work hard and perform better in the next rating.

Li Xuan looked at it indifferently, so he thought of Sheng Min again.

Sheng Minchu's rating is C. Two years ago, he had nothing but a face.But he didn't cry, he was too calm, like a strange person in a group of emotional people, he nodded, thanked the teacher, and exited quietly.

Li Xuan remembered in a daze that he had never seen Sheng Min cry.

Like the previous day, the recording of the day ended smoothly.Qin Zhengchen didn't come to provoke him again, and Li Xuan turned a blind eye.

However, when the recording of this issue reached the last day, the situation changed a bit. Twenty minutes had passed since the scheduled opening time, and Qin Zhengchen did not show up for a long time.

"Where is the person? It should have arrived a long time ago, and it has already started?" The director walked anxiously around the edge of the stage, "Delaying everyone's progress because of him alone? Have you found anyone?"

"No." The coordinator answered him, "I can't get in touch, and the manager can't find anyone. Maybe it's because I drank too much somewhere..."

"I want to come here so shamelessly, what kind of attitude... Hurry up and find someone, what are you still standing there for?"

After a long time without opening, the trainees also began to discuss. There were so many people, and they deliberately suppressed their voices, like ten thousand bees chirping in their ears.

"Oh, I hate it to death. I have already booked my air ticket, and I have to shoot a magazine tomorrow morning, so don't waste my time." A mentor on the judging panel complained.

"Who can be okay," the vocal instructor He Mui said, "Maybe it's possible that there's a traffic jam on the road. Young people, it's okay to be a bit edgy. When we first debuted, we overslept and missed announcements, but we were timid at the time., too many times, you will be scolded by your manager."

The previous person refused to let go: "How young is he? He is not two years younger than you. Hey, you debuted early. Besides, young people are ignorant? It's not his turn to show off. Look at othersXiao Min... hey, Xiao Min."

"Huh?" Li Xuan turned his head.

"Is your phone ringing?"

"Oh, thank you." He rubbed his forehead and smiled apologetically, "Then I'll pick it up."

"Go ahead. Maybe when it will start."

Li Xuan and the director signaled that they would go out to answer the phone, but the director was in a state of desperation, so he agreed without thinking.

He took the elevator all the way up to the rooftop, and dialed back slowly.

"done?"

"It's done." The other end of the microphone was the voice of the thin monkey that day, "According to what you said, two legs were broken, and the right finger was chopped off. I left some souvenirs for him on the face. I will also send the mobile phone to the address you gave.It's gone. It will be there in the afternoon at the latest."

This is the twenty-seventh floor, Li Xuanchui looked at the people going down to the car, there were indistinct black dots.

"It didn't kill me, did it?" He casually lit a cigarette.

"No, it's just this little injury. I can't kill anyone. I have cut the knife myself, and there are many. Besides, it's not the price if you kill it. You won't be charged for the broken hand, and I will give it to you." The thin monkey hehe twice,Like talking about a piece of pork, "It's rare that you can still think of me. I thought you wouldn't know us when you got rich."

"I don't know you. When the online casino was taken, you followed in."

"Yes, yes. That's true. But you've been out of touch for three years." The thin monkey was a little emotional, "It's nothing if I go in, and there are all acquaintances inside. The main reason is that your sister-in-law is about to give birth at that time, the first childI'm not here... I will always remember your love for this matter."

Li Xuan smiled noncommittally: "Where are people?"

"Let Dabin throw it back."

"You didn't follow?"

"I followed. I will definitely follow your order all the way. I just called you when I came back."

"Sober?"

"Of course. He pressed his eyelids the whole time and didn't let him close. Didn't you see..." The skinny monkey clicked his tongue twice, "People are paralyzed from fright. You said this star, it's very bright when you say it.The bones are as soft as noodles. You bastard. The knife is not as good as it is, and I immediately knelt down. I cried so badly. My legs broke and I lost the strength to cry. Ask me who he offended. I will give youMy photo was thrown in his face. He was stupid on the spot, asked me if I belonged to Mr. Zhou's wife, and made a mess of things, I can't remember..."

There was mockery in his tone: "Is this man a male mistress? Do you still leave photos of this kind of thing? It's so disgusting. Cheap. The other man is also cheap. There is a daughter-in-law who is still messing around outside. I don't have anyTake this kind of... eh, nineteen. What's your relationship with that man's wife? The couple who took you away at that time didn't seem to have the same surname?"

"There are too many questions." Li Xuan said lazily.

"Ask me. I haven't contacted you for so long, what's the matter?" Shouhou said dissatisfied, "I know you are the eldest young master now, and the couple are rich at a glance. Are you living a comfortable life, young master?"

"Comfortable." Li Xuan chuckled lightly, took a puff of the cigarette, and the breath of nicotine and tar passed out of his lungs, "I have already sent the money to the broken mailbox at the door of the house where I used to live.10,000. Added 20,000, the weather is hot, half to buy water for the brothers, and the other 10,000 for the sister-in-law, she gave birth to a child, and I didn’t come back to see it.”

"Your boy... I also said to send you off. Okay, since you have given it all, so happy, I won't push it away. I will thank you on behalf of your sister-in-law and nephew." The thin monkey smiled, "In the future, there will be thisIt’s something to make money, remember to come to me.”

"Let's talk again, I have something else to do."

"Success, go get busy... hey, yes." He suddenly stopped Li Xuan again, "I remember, the snake skin is supposed to come out next month?"

After hanging up the phone, Li Xuan pinched his temples.Talking to the thin monkey is very exhausting for him, and it reminds him of many not-so-pleasant memories.He lightly flicked off the cigarette ash, and sent a message to Qi Boyuan, asking him to help delete the positioning plug-in.

Who are you following again?Qi Boyuan asked him.

People who are not pleasing to the eye.

speak nicely.Qi Boyuan returned a trembling expression and went to work.

Li Xuan lowered his eyes, took out the calling card and lit it with a lighter, and when it burned out, he threw it into the trash can together with the remaining half of the cigarette.

Back in the studio, it was still chaotic, because the students had waited too long, and the whispering voices of the students were not so restrained, and the staff shouted back and forth with the loudspeaker: "Quiet, keep quiet."

"Finished the phone call?" the previous female tutor asked him enthusiastically.

"Yeah." Li Xuan unbuttoned his suit and sat down, and said softly, "Are you still recording?"

"Not here yet! God knows where."

"I see." He pushed the gold-rimmed glasses that were used as decoration on his face, and smiled with downcast eyes, "Then just wait."
