Shang Miao's video call came in the moment he came out of the bathroom. Jing Zuohuai took a towel and wiped it casually. The moment the call was connected, Shang Miao's smiling face appeared on the phone screen, and she hurried to tell him the good news.
"Xiao Jing, Xiao Jing, do you know who I was chatting with just now?" Shang Miao looked excited.
"Teacher Winlean! She just added me on WeChat and asked me about your next project. She personally chose you as her leading man!"
"Teacher Winlean! My favorite wife! And any copyright of hers is worth millions! It's a bonus from heaven!" Shang Miao was obviously very excited. Jiang Rui beside her smiled and asked her to calm down.
But Shang Miao still couldn't help it, "She asked me to meet up this weekend to chat. Oh my god, I'm going to meet my goddess! Can you put work aside for a while? I want to date my goddess!"
So now you're not looking for me anymore, but are shifting your tactics and targeting the people around me?
At this time, he should have just rested, Jing Zuohuai thought.
"Xiao Jing, Xiao Jing? Is that okay?" Shang Miao asked for his opinion from the other side. "Teacher Winlean didn't tell me about the script yet, and just asked if it would be convenient for us to meet this weekend to talk..."
Jing Zuohuai sighed, "If you want to go, go ahead. We'll see what she says when we meet. It's okay if we can't reach an agreement. Just treat it as a date with Teacher Wen."
"Great! Then I'll obey your command!" Shang Miao was discussing with Jiang Rui what to wear for the meeting. Jiang Rui said lovingly that there were still several days left and there was no rush, but he still stood up to help her match clothes.
Jiang Rui was a very kind person, with a very comprehensive mindset. He doted on Shang Miao and taught her many things. Jing Zuohuai saw all of this and felt relieved to leave Shang Miao in his care.
Jing Zuohuai watched the young couple opposite him unintentionally showing their affection, took a glass of water and hung up.
"When did you come back?" He Zhijin pushed the door open and saw him leaning on the dining table drinking water.
"You don't even knock when you enter my house now?" Jing Zuohuai joked, "Half an hour ago, I had dinner with a kid." Jing Zuohuai automatically reported his itinerary.
He Zhijin heated up the water and poured him another cup. He took out his phone, unlocked it, and showed him the screen.
"Teacher Wen Laian added me on WeChat. I don't know how she contacted me, but she told me she wants to choose you as the protagonist of her novel."
Jing Zuohuai raised his eyebrows, indicating that he should continue.
After Shang Miao, he went after He Zhijin? Is this a gradual disintegration? Are they so afraid that I won't take this role? Are they determined to "scrape the bone to heal my wounds"?
He Zhijin sat on the sofa with him. "You should know Teacher Wen. She's very famous. She's won many literary awards and is a member of the National Writers Association. So you must have read some of her books."
"So? You want me to be in the show?"
He Zhijin smiled and shook his head, showing him all the chat records between him and her. "Teacher Wen's conditions are very good. She sent me an electronic version of the script. Although I haven't read it yet, I think she really thinks you are suitable for the role." He thought for a moment, "But shouldn't you contact Shang Miao for this matter? Why did she contact me?"
Although he is now his agent's part-time assistant, most of the agent's duties are handled by Shang Miao and Jing Zuohuai themselves.
He mainly deals with the work that has already been taken over, is responsible for negotiating and arranging itineraries, and does not take on work for him.
Jing Zuohuai asked back, "She only said she wanted to cast me, but didn't mention any other conditions?" Seeing him frown subconsciously, he had to speak slowly, "She didn't invite you? Didn't she say she would give you a role?"
He Zhijin looked at him intently after hearing what he said. Jing Zuohuai sighed softly, "I guess. Shang Miao just told me the news. If she wants to contact you again, it must be about something, about you."
"Yes, she also wanted me to participate, but I refused." He Zhijin said.
"Teacher Wen's scripts are all of good quality. If you were to act in one of them, it would be a great boost to your career. You're doing well now, so why not give yourself a boost?"
Wen Lian's fame is well known, and all actors want to star in her scripts.
"Of course, the final choice is yours. I won't force you."
"Don't you have any ideas? This is Wen Lian's script..."
He Zhijin just shook his head and gently interrupted him, "My job is to help you deal with the problems you encounter. It's enough for me to be with you now."
Jing Zuohuai looked at him, and suddenly leaned weakly in his arms.
But this is not all I want...
Rather than being with him, he wanted to see him shine in the field he was good at.
"What's wrong?" He Zhijin patted his back.
Jing Zuohuai shook his head, still buried in his arms, "I'm a little sleepy."
"Then go to bed early." He Zhijin said gently. Jing Zuohuai felt the frequency of his chest vibration, closed his eyes and murmured.
"Then can you stay with me? I feel a little tired. I just took some medicine..."
"Medicine? What medicine?" He Zhijin reacted, "It's for replenishing Qi and blood, right? Why are you taking it again? Are you in a bad mood?"
Jing Zuhuai buried his head in his arms and nodded gently. He Zhijin sighed helplessly, "You..."
"Stay with me, huh? Okay?"
He was acting coquettishly, and his tone was very soft, which was rare.
"Okay, I'll accompany you."
There is not much work in the future, and Mr. Wen Laian’s script may not be accepted yet. It doesn’t matter if Jing Zuohuai doesn’t want to take it. Why force himself to play a role he doesn’t want to play?
I will spend some time with him in the future. Filming is really too harmful to Jing Zuohuai's body. He cannot rely on drugs, as they will become addictive.
He Zhijin thought, "With time, things will get better slowly!"
