Chapter 29



"Hey." Gu Xian rolled over and rolled to the side of Xie Yunjing. "Why didn't you attend the meeting on time this afternoon? What were you doing?"

“…”

Xie Yunjing ignored him. He lifted one of his legs and pressed it against Xie Yunjing's, touching the instep of Xie Yunjing's foot. "Still playing dirty! I'm asking you something serious."

Only then did Xie Yunjing raise his eyes.

Gu Xian's foot stepped on his instep again and again, as if he found it fun. He couldn't understand how Gu Xian did it, as if the kiss in the gym that afternoon didn't even exist.

"Why should I tell you?"

The pressure became heavier as if playing. Gu Xian rolled his eyes at him and raised his phone to show him the chat history: "Isn't this Xie Huaihong looking for me to settle the score?"

The main content of the chat record was that the information revealed by Gu Xian today was wrong, which prevented Xie Huaihong from setting a trap for Xie Yunjing in the meeting. Xie Huaihong suspected that Gu Xian took the money but did not do his job well.

"He's got the information I leaked, but you're always counterattacking him. He's been fuming for a long time. Today, you didn't follow the plan I agreed on, so you finally gave him the opportunity to explode." Gu Xian shoved Xie Yunjing's feet twice, "You got a share of the profits, so give me an explanation quickly."

Gu Xian didn't like to move around, so of course his feet didn't have calluses or anything like that. Their skin was as soft and tender as a child's. His lack of internal heat caused his feet to be cold, and when they rubbed against Xie Yunjing's instep, they brought a slight, tingling coolness.

Xie Yunjing moved his legs slightly, trying to pull them out from under Gu Xian's legs, but in the end he didn't move.

He had long known that Gu Xian was good-looking and intelligent. However, these things had never affected his desire to ruthlessly suppress Gu Xian's arrogance when he was provoked by him.

"I'm asking you a question, why are you staring at me?"

Xie Yunjing glanced at Gu Xian's phone perfunctorily, and his gaze fell on Gu Xian's face again, or to be exact, on Gu Xian's lips.

He had touched it twice, and it was soft, a complete contrast to Gu Xian's arrogant and domineering temper. Xie Yunjing unconsciously licked his lip, as if this could bring back the taste of that afternoon's kiss. "One of the people in charge of a cooperation is unwell, so I'm going to go discuss that cooperation first."

"oh."

In fact, before Xie Yunjing answered, Gu Xian had already replied to Xie Huaihong with confidence.

Ni Xian Ge: Everyone encounters unexpected situations sometimes. I didn’t install a camera on Xie Yunjing, so how could I foresee any unexpected situations?

Xie Huaihong was a little angry and embarrassed, and threatened to cancel the cooperation with Gu Xian in a cowardly manner, but everyone could see the meaning behind it. Even though Xie Huaihong knew everything about Xie Yunjing's daily movements, he still couldn't beat Xie Yunjing.

Gu Xian tutted twice in disdain, then nudged Xie Yunjing and complained, "Look, such a good deal is about to be ruined by you. Can't you give in to Xie Huaihong a little and take a little loss first so that he can have a taste of the sweetness? The longer Xie Huaihong and I work together, and the more he trusts me, the better it will be for you. Do you understand what it means to play the long game and catch a big fish?"

"No. How can I give in to Xie Huaihong's stupid tricks?" Gu Xian's feet became warm with each step he stepped on. He lifted his instep, and Gu Xian immediately stepped down hard - like a kitten that insisted on putting its paw on top.

"Uh..." It's really hard to describe what Xie Huaihong did. Gu Xian scratched his head in annoyance, then suddenly looked up at Xie Yunjing. "How about I give him some advice? How about you cooperate with me?"

It was obvious that Gu Xian wanted him to suffer a loss. If they were on the battlefield, even if he couldn't be said to be sending him to death, it would be equivalent to sending him to the enemy's knife to take a few blows.

but……

Xie Yunjing raised his instep again as if to lift something, and after being stepped on hard by Gu Xian again, he replied, "Okay."

Playing stacking with Xie Yunjing's feet seemed to have become an unconscious action of Gu Xian. After giving Xie Huaihong some advice in front of Xie Yunjing and sending Xie Huaihong away, he did not move his legs off Xie Yunjing's legs.

Xie Yunjing didn't remind him: "Screenwriter Wang Xue retired a long time ago. He refused to be a consultant to several companies before. How did you convince him to be the screenwriter of "Legend of Songshan"? "

"Wow." Gu Xian looked up in surprise, "You care so much about the crew?"

"First, I invested 200 million yuan. Second, this news is everywhere." Xie Yunjing acted like an investor. "And the director you've chosen, Ming Lang, I heard he's been drinking a lot in recent years. Are you sure he can do the job well?"

"I have my own plans. You're just a payer. Why do you care so much?"

Although he accepted Xie Yunjing's investment, that didn't mean Gu Xian was willing to be controlled by Xie Yunjing. He rolled over and away, naturally retracting the leg he was holding onto.

Xie Yunjing's expression changed slightly, but he didn't say much. No one knew Gu Xian better than him. Since Gu Xian was going for money, he would never make a choice that would cause him to lose money.

After the script was finalized and the director was chosen, the next step was naturally to select the actors.

Guangyao had just been involved in a scandal and was almost on the verge of bankruptcy. It could not afford to invite those popular stars, and those who were more concerned about their reputation would not come.

However, Ming Lang, as a director, had no intention of finding actors through his fame.

The news that Guangyao used open auditions to select the actors for "Legend of Songshan" caused ridicule and doubts from many people in the industry.

Who still holds casting auditions these days? "Legend of Songshan" was once a popular IP, but it's now languishing in obscurity. Without a well-known and popular lead actor to carry the show, it's doomed to fail.

However, no matter how others mocked him, Guangyao still finalized the list of actors after a hard audition.

Although most of the selected actors are unknown, and some are even complete amateurs, there are still some surprises.

For example, Xu Jia, who was chosen as the male lead, had recently participated in a popular variety show audition. Although he only made it to the top four, he is still a relatively well-known figure. Another example is Jiang Tianyi, who was chosen as the female lead. She won the Best Newcomer and Best Actor awards right after her debut.

Although Jiang Tianyi later fell into disgrace due to the mistress scandal and could only play supporting roles in some low-quality TV dramas, Minglang said that he only cared about whether the actors were suitable and all other issues were put aside.

"Uncle Kang, I'm going to treat the crew to dinner tonight, so I won't be back for dinner." After saying hello to Uncle Kang, Gu Xian hurried out.

Kang Bo looked at Xie Yunjing, who had just finished breakfast and got up a little later, and said with a smile: "Looks like I don't have to prepare dinner tonight."

"You should eat well even if you are alone."

"Okay, Third Young Master, take care."

Guangyao’s dinner was scheduled at the best five-star hotel in City A.

When Gu Xian and Guangyao's people arrived, there was a long line of vehicles in front of the hotel. They waited for a long time before finally driving to the main entrance where they could get off.

There were many people coming and going in the hotel lobby, and they were all wearing formal attire, looking quite solemn.

Yu Le, who got off the car first, asked the waiter curiously, "Is there any event going on in the hotel?"

"There's a Chamber of Commerce in the lobby on the second floor," the waiter explained as he led the way. "Please follow me, everyone. The entrance over there is for the Chamber of Commerce only today. Please don't enter by mistake."

The other people in Guangyao were quite curious. Gu Xian glanced at it casually, but he was more concerned about the car he saw driving into the underground garage when the car just arrived at the hotel entrance.

That looks like Xie Yunjing’s car?

Because there were too many vehicles, he didn't have time to see the license plate clearly and couldn't be sure for a while.

"Brother Xian!"

A friendly call interrupted Gu Xian's thoughts. He looked up and met Xu Jia with an eager face.

"Ah, hello."

Who would have thought that by casually saving a little kid in the bar, she would end up saving the male lead that the crew needed.

The author has something to say: I was not satisfied with the original second half, so I rewrote it. Sorry.
