Chapter 16(1/2)
Time stopped for a few seconds.
Lu Xi finally sat down and tentatively said, "pd, are you in a bad mood?"
He Junchao looked at him for a moment, threw down his chopsticks, and said angrily: "You care about me."
Lu Xi: "..."
His current tone was like a kindergarten child who had been snatched away his favorite candy and was angry at the person who was snatching the candy.
Lu Xi was so angry that he had stopped eating.
He reflected on it, and didn't know where he had snatched his candy, so he asked sincerely: "Is there anything wrong with me?"
He thought that his relationship with He Junchao has eased, and he also rejected Zhao Han's request very "loyal", which is also for him to consider it to avoid him from causing a fishy outrage.
However, after hearing his words, He Junchao's eyes became even more terrifying.
He suddenly grabbed Lu Xi's left hand on the table and said, "Where is the ring I gave you?"
Lu Xi was not prepared and was caught by him.
He Junchao's hand was slightly larger than his, and he easily wrapped around the back of his hand.
The air conditioner was turned on in the cafeteria, but the temperature in his palm was still very high.
Lu Xi didn't keep up with the other party's jumping thinking for a while and said casually: "It's placed in the dormitory." After all, who would wear a decorative ring if you have nothing to do.
He Junchao's face was covered with frost and he said coldly: "Since you don't want to wear it, then give it back to me."
Lu Xi choked again.
At the four tables away, Qiao Songnian and others were secretly watching here while cooking.
When Qiao Songnian saw He Junchao pulling Lu Xi's hand, a grain of rice choked into the ventricular tube and almost coughed out his lungs.
Qi Nan handed him a bowl of soup, and he wiped his tears with red face and said, "Shi'ao, X Station is sincere and won't deceive me, it turns out that the tide is real."
Qi Nan smiled and said, "You finally know that 'Tide' is not a name, are you secretly making up for the lesson?"
Wu Chenghuan said inexplicably: "Tidal? What tide?"
Qiao Songnian ignored him and said, "Oh my God, Nan Nan, hurry up and wake me up. I will be confused by the remarks on the Internet."
He lowered his head and recited silently three times, "You can't encircle the land, don't stand in real people." Qi Nan was almost laughing crazy.
"PD and Brother Lu have a CP feeling, and I think the program team should also want to support them, and it is not a bad thing to open a business." Qi Nan whispered.
Wu Chenghuan's ears were very sharp, "He PDF and Brother Lu? What's wrong with them?"
Qi Nan ordered his plate and said, "Don't ask these things before you are eighteen years old, eat your meal well."
Wu Chenghuan: "Damn, I'm still eighteen in three months!"
Qiao Songnian shouted: "Hey hey hey, why did the PDF go?"
Qi Nan looked up and saw He Junchao's back, while Lu Xi sat in place, motionless.
A few minutes later, Lu Xi came over with a plate.
Wu Chenghuan hurriedly asked, "Teacher Lu, have you asked when to record the program?"
Lu Xi's movements froze and he forgot.
His mind was full of question marks just now, so how could he remember to ask this?
Qiao Songnian swallowed the food in her mouth, blinked her eyes and asked, "Brother Lu, why didn't you eat with He PDF?"
Lu Xi glanced at him and asked seriously: "Will boys have a 'special period'?"
"Ah?" The other three looked confused.
Lu Xi felt a little suspicious, so he waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I'll talk nonsense."
To their surprise, the staff came over to announce the news that afternoon.
All the trainees in Class A will fly to City W tomorrow morning to participate in "Stars Without Limits".
In the practice room, everyone was extremely excited.
Wu Chenghuan didn't even want to dance, so he jumped up and down excitedly, wishing he could catch a plane tonight.
Lu Xi sat on the floor and discussed the movements with the choreographer.
The staff member said again: "Lu Xi, come out and the director will look for you."
Lu Xi greeted the choreographer next to him, stood up and walked out.
As soon as he left, Wu Chenghuan immediately rushed to Qiao Songnian and asked, "Why do the director team look for Teacher Lu every now and then? Could it be that he is interested in him?"
"Shut up, you, Director Zhong is not that kind of person." Qiao Songnian punched him.
Wu Chenghuan rubbed his arms and said, "I'm worried about him! And it's not necessarily Director Zhong, you forgot. Meng Xinyou said that your Tianhua President Lu had that kind of thought for him..."
"This is how your team teaches? You whisper at will in class?" He Junchao's voice sounded like a shocking thunder.
The two 1.8-meter-old boys were so scared that they shook violently and turned their heads tremblingly.
He Junchao's figure appeared at the door, with dark clouds on his face.
Wu Chenghuan didn't know how much he heard, so he had to say hello in a trembling voice and began to dance stiffly with his limbs.
He Junchao stood at the door and stared at them for a while before turning around and going to the next shift.
When Lu Xi walked into the lounge, he unexpectedly found that Yang Ming was also here.
Director Zhong and he were sitting and chatting. When he saw Lu Xi coming in, he waved his hand and asked him to sit down.
Lu Xi simply nodded to them. Yang Ming still looked like a suit and tie. He didn't look like a bodyguard captain, but he seemed to be a insurance seller.
He has been with Lu Zhanyang for more than ten years and often helps him deal with business matters.
When Lu Xi was a trainee before, he accidentally discovered that Yang Ming was a fellow villager with him, and the two of them often chatted together.
"Lu Xi, your boss's assistant comes to you, I'll say a few words, and then you can have a good chat." Director Zhong said.
Lu Xi nodded.
Director Zhong is not very old, in his thirties, and he speaks and does things vigorously and looks smart.
He poured Lu Xi a glass of water with the cup on the table. Although this behavior seems ordinary to outsiders, as a director, he rarely takes the initiative to help the actors pour water.
He smiled kindly at Lu Xi and said, "You are also a sensible person. Let's open the skylight and speak loudly. There are no outsiders here. If you don't talk about anything else, we will just talk about a question with all our hearts. Do you want to be popular?"
As soon as he spoke, Lu Xi guessed what he would say next.
In fact, when he saw Yang Ming, he understood the content of the conversation.
Lu Xi thought for a while and said, "Director Zhong, I want to be famous. But I hope everyone can know me through their works, instead of a false gossip. You are an insider in the industry and should also know that for a newcomer, this is nothing more than a praise or a killer."
Yang Ming looked at him and frowned gently.
"You think about this matter too seriously. We are not saying that you must follow the script, just increase the interaction with He Junchao." Director Zhong smiled and shook his head, "Besides, now is the traffic era. You have retired for two years. Do you have no experience of this? If you are not popular, why should passers-by pay attention to your works?"
His words were like a long sword that stabbed Lu Xi's weakness.
After two years of silence, falling from a high place, he wanted to become famous even more as good as anyone else.
If these 100 trainees are all good children who work hard and are under tremendous pressure.
Then, Lu Xi definitely bears more than anyone else.
They are a piece of blank paper, and it is understandable to make mistakes, because everything starts from the starting point.
But Lu Xi cannot make mistakes, and there is no way out.
Director Zhong said: "Lu Xi, we asked you to come over and talk about these things, not forcing you. Instead, we think you are a good seedling and you have the potential to become popular, so why should we miss this opportunity? Besides, even He Junchao has no objection. If this is a gamble, will he be smaller than you?"
Lu Xi's eyelashes trembled, and his hands on his knees slowly tightened.
Director Zhong sighed and said, "I have said everything I should say. OK, let's talk to you both, I'll go out first."
After saying that, he stood up and walked out, closing the door.
The room was quiet for a while, and Yang Ming broke the silence: "You know I don't want to come this time, but these words were explained by President Lu."
Lu Xi didn't say anything, listened quietly.
Yang Ming said: "Mr. Lu was having a meeting abroad and couldn't come back. He said on the phone that if you have confidence and do not develop according to his plan, you can still pay 200 million in a year, then stick to yourself."
His light words seemed to be the last straw that broke the camel's back.
Lu Xi's chest was slightly undulating, and his breathing gradually became heavier.
A hint of unbearableness flashed in Yang Ming's eyes and said softly, "I know you don't want to do such deceptive behavior. When you pay off your debts, you can want to do what you really like."
When Lu Xi was a trainee, he described his future dream to him, and became a singer like the Tianhua boy group.
Lu Xi, who said those words, had light in his eyes.
Yang Ming helped Lu Zhanyang do a lot of things that could not be on the table, but for Lu Xi, he wanted to reach out to pull him.
Unruly jade should not stay in the quagmire. It shines in the eyes of everyone, and that is its ultimate destination.
After a long time, Lu Xi finally raised his head and said, "I understand."
