Chapter 68 He Doesn't Allow Good Will

There was actually nothing special about the killing banquet. The two leading actors just sat together, and everyone except Chen Mi was invited. It was impossible for Chen Mi to appear in such a scene and be caught.

Investors always come late. When Xu Shian and Shen Yaojie showed up, no one dared to pick up their chopsticks.

Lu Ziyan sat next to Fang Xin and whispered to him. Fang Xin smiled from time to time to show that he was very happy.

Xu Shian's face has not been good since he came in, but Shen Yaojie doesn't care about this scene and still has that businessman's face.

Director Chen spoke first, saying that he wanted to toast the investors with a glass of wine. The two of them raised their glasses at the same time and took a few sips out of respect.

Fang Xin gave Lu Ziyan a look and they both understood. Lu Ziyan stood up, raised his glass and said he wanted to toast Director Chen and the screenwriter.

Next, Fang Xin stood up and raised his glass to toast his sponsor. At this moment, the table suddenly became much quieter.

Those who had seen Mr. Xu lose his temper on the set last time all calmed down at the same time, pretending that they didn't care, but their eyes kept looking at the protagonist who was toasting this time.

"Thank you for your support, Mr. Xu and Mr. Shen. Shall we have a drink?"

Fang Xin held the cup with both hands. He had never had much socializing experience, and this was the first time he toasted alone.

Someone was sharp-eyed and noticed that when Fang Xin stood up with the cup, Xu Shian's hand was already on the cup.

Several little girls blushed, but Xu Shi'an didn't notice it because his eyes were on Fang Xin's nervous hands.

He actually stood up. Fang Xin looked at Xu Shi'an in a daze.

"Mr. Xu... I toast to you."

Fang Xin drank the whole glass directly. The spicy feeling in his throat kept stimulating his nerves. Oh no, he forgot to get the beer.

Xu Shi'an found it funny to see Fang Xin grinning and then suppressing it. He raised his glass and took a sip to suppress the curve of his mouth.

Shen Yaojie watched this toast, which was not a one-man show, with interest. He also symbolically took a sip of wine to show that he accepted the toast.

Fang Xin immediately said that he would leave the table for a while.

He ran to the restroom, coughing madly, and gargling repeatedly to relieve the spiciness in his mouth.

Water drops fell into the pool along his clear jaw. His eyes were red. He looked up and saw that there was someone else in the mirror besides himself. He was slightly startled.

"You scared me." Fang Xin's voice was hoarse. She was about to reach out and wipe her face with her sleeve, but she said in time, "Use paper."

"If you can't drink it, don't force it." Xu Shi'an's tone was stiff. Fang Xin's eyebrows and eyes were red, all because of the spicy taste of the wine. This look made people want to... bully her.

"I was mistaken. I thought it was Sprite, but it turned out to be white wine." Fang Xin wiped his hair that was splashed with water droplets. His lips were bright red and they were pouting unconsciously while he spoke.

Xu Shi'an stared at her intently, thinking: There's something special about Fang Xin. The more I look at her, the more attractive she becomes.

He reached out his hand to flick the water droplets stuck on Fang Xin's clothes, but she looked at him incredulously, "If you feel uncomfortable, leave early. I'm here."

He stopped talking and turned away in order to hide his embarrassment, leaving Fang Xin standing there in a daze.

Even after the party was over, Fang Xin did not listen to Xu Shi'an and leave early. He knew his situation and would not leave rashly.

Shen Yaojie came to talk to him after the meeting, and Xu Shian, who was far away, never took his eyes off the two of them.

Lu Ziyan followed Xu Shi'an silently. He seemed to be thinking about something, and the terrifying thoughts in his mind were growing stronger and stronger.

This place is a bit far from the two families' homes. Fang Xin originally wanted to ask Xiao Huai to drive him back, but before he could get in the car, he heard a familiar voice from behind.

"Let's go back together."

Before the two of them got on the bus, many people stared at them, and Fang Xin felt very uneasy.

He complained and muttered, "Why did you keep trying to show off in front of me today? I'm from Jazz, and you keep looking for me. It has a bad influence."

"It's no secret that you come to my house often. What could they expect?"

Xu Shi'an closed his eyes, his expression was stern, and his words were no longer as aggressive as usual.

Fang Xin tilted her head and looked out the window. "But our past is no secret. It's not good to do this all the time."

When this matter was brought up, Xu Shian showed some reaction. He turned his watch and asked, "You mean, we should pretend that we don't know each other in front of outsiders?"

"Um."

The sound of "hmm" made the car silent. The atmosphere was not very good. Fang Xin could clearly feel the oppression. She pursed her lips and said nothing.

I don't know how long it took, "Okay."

Since then, Xu Shi'an never took the initiative to look for Fang Xin again. Even if they met in certain occasions, he would not nod or say hello, and would not even say a word.

It looked like a child having a tantrum.

Fang Xin was happy and relaxed at first, until he met Xu Shi'an at the door of his house. Xu Shi'an just looked at him as if he was a stranger and did not invite him to his house for snacks.

It would be a lie to say that he wasn't disappointed, but he frantically drove away this thought. The person he was with was Xu Shi'an, and he couldn't really want to get close to her.

After the filming of "Winter" was completed, the next step was to prepare for the start of filming of a new movie.

Currently, Fang Xin only has one TV series that he can show off, and another movie that he just finished filming has not yet been released, so he has been free from work for a while.

Only the filming of "Rise and Fall" required preparation. He and Anmei agreed that he would go back to see her after finishing filming "Cold Winter".

After asking Chen Xian for a few days' vacation, he packed up and went straight to Xu's house.

"Auntie! I'm back!"

Fang Xin walked in and saw An Mei applying a facial mask. An Mei was so excited that she didn't even put on the mask, but tore it off and came to greet Fang Xin.

"You're back, you're back to see me, Xinxin!" He couldn't stop expressing his happiness.

An Mei touched Fang Xin's cheek and said, "How can you be so thin..."

"I'm not losing weight, I've actually gained a lot of weight. I used to go there every day... and have midnight snacks every day." He suddenly changed the subject and was about to talk about going to Xu Shi'an's house for snacks.

There was nothing wrong with eating snacks, but he was afraid that An Mei would know that he went to Xu Shi'an's house.

An Mei is not an old-fashioned person. She would go online to learn about Fang Xin at home. She had read all the popular advertisements and the raw photos of fans encountering her at the airport.

As I watched, I sighed, what a natural talent.

After going through many ups and downs, Fang Xin no longer looks the same as before. The unique aura of a young man has gradually dissipated, leaving behind a mature aura that has been polished by the wind and frost.

He is now gradually shedding his cute appearance and has a charming maturity, but his words are still heartwarming.

Fang Xin clung to An Mei and asked, "Will there be anything delicious tonight?"

An Mei smiled knowingly, "When did I not cook for you when you came back?"

The two chatted idly for the whole afternoon. When Xu Shijie came back from get off work, Fang Xin greeted Xu Shijie politely and went to the table together.

The days spent with Anmei at Xu's house were comfortable, until the last day when Xu Shi'an showed up at Xu's house.

The two looked at each other in silence. An Mei noticed that they seemed to be hesitant to talk, so she looked between them inquiringly.

It's a little weird, a little awkward, but not disgusting.

She always knew her son. Sometimes Shi'an was just taciturn and didn't like to talk, but when he spoke, his words were sharp and pierced her heart.

This feeling of wanting to say something but not being able to say it was rare for him. An Mei's eyes lit up and incredible thoughts kept expanding in her mind.

Seeing that Xu Shi'an still had no intention of communicating with her, Fang Xin left first.

He didn't see Eucalyptus pause for a moment after he left.

Xu Shi'an had to return to the Xu residence once a week. This was a rule set by Xu Shijie.

Today, he happened to run into Fang Xin who hadn't left yet. He had originally come back just to have a meal and reminisce about the past, but Xu Shi'an was not in the mood.

That night, An Mei caught Xu Shi'an returning to his room and asked with a teasing look, "Did you and Xinxin have another fight?"

"No." Xu Shi'an's eyes were calm, but his fingertips rubbing each other revealed his uneasiness. "He doesn't let me talk to him outside."

Hearing this, An Mei chuckled, a smile flashing from the corners of her eyes, "You... made me laugh to death."

She rarely saw her son trying to explain like this, and he did it with a complaining tone.

An Mei seemed to have seen something new. She looked more energetic. "Why don't you think about why he doesn't let you talk to him more outside?"

"I've thought about it. It's because of him pursuing me in the past." He said this with some embarrassment.

An Mei pressed down the corners of her mouth. Normally, Xu Shi'an would just leave if he didn't want to answer or say more, but after she said something so embarrassing, he still had no intention of leaving, seemingly waiting for her to give him a solution.

I actually felt comforted that my son had changed and seemed to be more humane now.

"Then won't you be more nice to Xinxin?"

Xu Shi'an lowered his eyes, "He doesn't let me show any kindness to him."

An Mei heard a hint of grievance in these words, and she could hardly suppress the shock in her eyes.

"Son, how are you feeling about Xinxin...why are you so upset when Xinxin doesn't talk to you?" An Mei looked at Xu Shi'an tentatively, and Xu Shi'an paused.

He seemed not to have considered this problem. He just felt that Fang Xin was always cheerful and cheerful when talking to others, but was reserved and cautious when talking to him, which made him uncomfortable.

So from time to time he wanted to attract Fang Xin's attention. Even though what he said was not so nice, he could always attract Fang Xin.

"Mom, what should I do?"

An Mei was surprised in her heart this time, but she didn't show it on her face. She had a vague feeling that something was about to break through and she just needed guidance.

Xu Shian was asking her for help.

On the first day after Fang Xin returned, she attended the dialogue seminar for "Ebb and Flow". Almost all the actors who participated this time were famous.

In fact, there is nothing particularly exaggerated in the script. It is just a very ordinary rural life drama, but so many well-known actors were invited to star in it.

In fact, it is all thanks to the fame of director Lam Ching-wah. He brought out a new crop of TV Kings, so naturally everyone wants to try, just in case they are the next one.

What's more, the production process of this movie is very fast. It is estimated that it can be completed in two months, including editing. It can be nominated for this year's Hundred Film Awards.

Everyone rushed to audition, hoping to get a role in this movie.

This time Fang Xin plays the role of a fool, a village fool, who is inseparable from the main characters.

It is a very ordinary life drama, and it is also very close to the plot in the distant mountains.
