Chapter 57 Chapter 57 An old enemy is an old enemy. An old enemy cannot be...
After having lunch at the institute, Lu Zhiluan saw a message in the group saying that everyone could arrange their own time in the afternoon.
In the winter, many animals in the research institute reduce their outdoor activities because of the cold temperature. They would rather sleep in their warm nests than go out and walk around. The work of the keepers becomes very easy and they have a lot of free time.
There is also an alliance dinner in the evening, and the group is counting the number of people.
He checked the list and found that there were more people there today than yesterday.
The star master was here yesterday, so no one dared to be too unrestrained. We still had some leeway and just had a few drinks and chatted. After all, we were representing the image of the star master, and it would not sound good if it got out in a less than respectful way.
The banquet held by the alliance is different. Although it is organized by the military, it is planned by the Internet Propaganda and Entertainment Department. As the department in charge of the hot trends in the Star Domain Internet entertainment circle, they are very accurate in grasping the hot topics and know what young people like to watch and play. Most importantly, there are mecha performances.
This will be a break time, everyone in the group is discussing.
Keeper No. 2: [It seems Bai Xu will also be attending the alliance banquet this year. 】
Keeper No. 3: [Breaking down and crying, no way, I lose, and I was planning to comb my hair like an adult tonight to give a little shock to my girlfriend who came from afar, who will look at me when Bai Xu comes!]
Keeper No. 12: [I suggest you do the opposite. You should act ugly. If you can’t be the most handsome, then be the ugliest.]
Keeper No. 3: [You are so vicious. My girlfriend is obsessed with looks. She will be abandoned if she is too ugly. Cry, you don’t know how much effort and means I have wasted every time I meet her.]
[Show your affection, everyone in the institute knows that you and your girlfriend are childhood sweethearts. 】
[The guy upstairs has fallen into your trap. This bastard just wants to hear you say this. He's a veteran actor and comes here once a month.]
[But speaking of it, are Luo Yu and Bai Xu really incompatible? What kind of hatred do they have? They are too lazy to even pretend to be decent. It has been three years, and they have hardly appeared in the same frame. When one comes, the other leaves.]
[We don’t know either. It’s said to be a conflict between two families.]
After reading the messages in the group, Dr. Xiaolu became curious about these two rival stars. He closed the group chat and went to Star Network to search. He found that the situation of these two stars seemed to be much more serious. They had black faces on the spot, turned a blind eye, and fought each other backstage. Not only the main stars, but also the fans were fighting each other. It was a fight to the death.
His gossip spirit was ignited at once, and Lu Zhiluan started surfing at high intensity. He found many "insiders'" explosive posts on the Internet and read them carefully, as well as various micro-expression analysis posts, which he read with great gusto.
It has to be said that the crowd of onlookers can be called the modern Sherlock Holmes. They can even recognize the pixelated figures in the corners of the blurry photos as one of the parties involved and write a 3,000-word essay to analyze the motives.
Finally, we come to a strict conclusion: an old enemy is an old enemy, and it is impossible for an old enemy to become a friend.
In the afternoon, Lu Zhiluan only stayed at the research institute until four o'clock before leaving get off work.
After returning home and playing with the cat for a while, leaving cat food and plenty of plastic mouse toys for it, he took the StarTrack to the hotel where the banquet was being held.
Today's opening theme was a masked ball, which started with a dance. Lu Zhiluan received a furry red fox mask at the entrance, which looked very nice.
After entering, Lu Zhiluan found Fang Yi and Zhang Mu wearing panda masks and puppy masks.
"Wow, Dr. Lu, this mask suits you very well!" Fang Yi, who was wearing a mask with two panda eye circles, exclaimed.
Even with a mask on, one can tell from the fair lower half of her face and those beautiful, cold eyes how stunning the face underneath the mask is. The brightly colored mask does not steal the show, but instead makes her thin lips look even more rosy, giving rise to endless reverie.
Zhang Mu: "Mmm! (Looks good)"
Lu Zhiluan heard the sound of air leaking from his throat and asked concernedly, "Is your throat still not healed?" If it really didn't work, he would try a treatment.
Zhang Mu: “Mmmmm…”
Fang Yi: "He said it will be soon."
Zhang Mu nodded with satisfaction and raised his thumb to show his approval of Fang Yi's translation.
Fang Yi pretended to look back with deep affection: It’s included.
Zhang Mu: “Tsk!”
Before the show started, the three of them followed yesterday's process and looked for food at the buffet counter. Lu Zhiluan learned his lesson this time and avoided the pile of rainbow fruit wine.
Fang Yi learned about how Dr. Lu got drunk yesterday. In order to avoid repeating the same mistake, he introduced various drinks to Dr. Lu right at the beginning of the night. The waiter standing nearby had a strong sense of crisis. How could a customer take away his job?
Fortunately, the guests didn't know everything. When Fang Yi was having trouble with the unknown black drink, the waiter next to him finally found a chance to show off. Without waiting for the guests to interrupt, he directly introduced all the food on the table smoothly, just like reading the names of the dishes, with clear pronunciation and appropriate emotions.
Fang Yi was stunned by what he heard.
Who could have expected that he just wanted to have a bite to eat, but unexpectedly he ended up taking a food appreciation class.
The lights in the venue dimmed, the opening dance was about to begin, and the host on the stage was controlling the situation.
The foraging trio finally left the table. The young waiter watched the guests go away with a smile on his face, then silently wiped the sweat off his face. It was great! He had saved his job for the day.
An elegant and lyrical piano piece flowed out, and the masked guests danced gracefully. The ladies' gorgeous skirts swayed as they spun around like flowers blooming in the dark night, beautiful and generous.
After the dance, the atmosphere of the party became more and more lively. The host was relaxed and tense, and various interesting games always caused laughter from time to time.
Lu Zhiluan was dragged by Fang Yi and Zhang Mu to watch one game after another. They were the three of them who were the busiest in the entire venue, and they would go wherever there was excitement.
After half an hour, Lu Zhiluan had a few more exquisite small pendants in his hands, which were participation prizes won by the two people in the game.
Fang Yi and Zhang Mu are both incompetent and playful.
After the game ended, the host on stage said: "Next, we have invited a mysterious guest to sing. Can you guess who he is?"
"Bai Xu!" There was a burst of excited and enthusiastic cheers from below.
Host: "That's right! Now let's welcome the big star Bai Xu!"
A tall young man in a royal blue suit slowly walked onto the stage. The spotlight came on, revealing an overly eye-catching and enchanting face, with light brown eyes that shone like glass.
There were loud screams from the audience. Bai Xu's beautiful peach blossom eyes slightly curved, and he gently raised his index finger to his lips. Everyone obediently fell silent.
The clean and clear singing voice rang out, each note was pleasant to the ears and touching to the heart.
Lu Zhilan closed his eyes and listened, as if he were in a clear spring, floating up and down with the gurgling water, and his heart was filled with peace.
She is indeed a big star that attracts everyone's attention, with both strength and beauty.
Bai Xu sang three songs in total. After the last song ended, he bowed and thanked everyone in the audience.
“I wish you all the best in the new year.”
The host on the side said: "Thank you very much Bai Xu for bringing such a beautiful song."
"The next thing is ..."
There was a sudden commotion from the audience.
"Damn it! I saw Luo Yu in my lifetime!"
"Oh my god, it's the living Luo Yu!"
"Help! Are they going to fight? If I take care of both of them, who will I help later?"
A handsome man in a black suit walked slowly onto the stage. He had perfect facial features and a fierce and gangster-like look between his eyebrows.
Bai Xu on the stage suddenly became gloomy after seeing the man's face. He turned around and was about to leave, not even glancing at the man with such a strong presence.
The audience gasped: As expected! He didn't even want to act!
Being ignored, Luo Yu was not as furious and dissatisfied as everyone imagined. Instead, he stepped aside like a gentleman to make way for Bai Xu. He slowly lowered his head, and when his eyes met his mother's warning look from the audience, he said into the microphone, "I made an appointment with a friend upstairs to reminisce. My friend didn't come, so I came here to join in the fun and have a drink. Do you mind giving me a drink?"
“No problem!”
Some people in the audience were excited and were cheering, "The best actor, please sing a song!"
Luo Yu smiled and said, "With Teacher Bai's singing voice as a shining example, how can a humble person like me be embarrassed?"
It is a provocation, absolutely a provocation. Everyone who has been brainwashed by the old enemy's theory has not yet learned to answer questions dialectically, but has learned to answer questions in a rush.
He said Bai Xu was shameful!
Unfortunately, Luo Yu and Bai Xu did not fight.
After the episode of the old enemies appearing in the same frame ended, it was free time. The mecha show was the highlight and was held at the end of the banquet.
Everyone on the field seemed to be chatting and socializing, but their eyes were constantly paying attention to the movements of the two big stars.
The distance between the two was like the Milky Way that prevented the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl from meeting each other. They had no eye contact the whole time, and it seemed that they left one after another after not staying for long.
In the bathroom on the second floor of the hotel, Lu Zhiluan took off the fox mask and placed it on the sink, with the sound of water.
When he came out and passed the reception room at the corner, he seemed to hear some noise inside and he stopped.
The door of the reception room was ajar and it was dark inside.
Lu Zhiluan took a look inside, found nothing unusual, and stepped forward.
At that moment, a Star Trail car happened to pass by outside, and the light shone in, illuminating two overlapping figures by the window.
In the brightly lit banquet hall, Fang Yi and Zhang Mu, who declared, "If you drink again today, you'll be a dog," have already started talking freely with their high school classmates, arm in arm.
Lu Zhiluan really didn't want to cry with them, so he found a half-folded sofa to sit down and rest.
On the other side, two ladies who had met on the sidewalk also sat down, looking as if they were about to have a negotiation.
Lu Zhiluan heard one of them say, "I heard that your Luo Yu doesn't have many roles to take on recently, so he's staying at home to rest with you?"
Another: "Well, I asked him to come back."
"I really envy you. Unlike my Ah Xu, he is so busy that I can hardly see him."
Oh, so they are the two mothers of my old enemies, Lu Zhiluan said in his heart.
It was really not that he was eavesdropping on purpose; it was just that the two ladies spoke in such powerful voices that they were not afraid of being overheard.
Luo Yu's mother said: "We are not short of money at home, why let the child run around outside all day? Luo Yu has had enough of playing in the past two years, I am going to let him take over the family business."
Bai Xu's mother said, "That's right. Your business is very tiring. You travel all over the world. As you get older, your body really can't take it. It's better for you to retire early."
"For me, if Ah Xu hadn't started to help me earlier and ease the burden, I could only work for a few more years if I gritted my teeth now."
…
It sounds like the enemy's mother is also an enemy.
The two of them talked more and more, and their tone became more and more unfriendly.
Lu Zhiluan thought about the scene he had just seen, and...
[An old enemy is an old enemy, but they have a child. 】
The two mothers, who were already arguing passionately about who would raise a more successful grandson, stopped abruptly when they heard this.
Who is speaking?
[Written as a literature of old enemies, read as a secret crush on each other, it turns out that the two big stars who are incompatible on the surface are secretly in love, and their child is almost two years old. 】
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience burst into laughter.
Children? What children?
At the door, Luo Yu, who had just come down from the stairs, heard the voice, paused slightly, his face darkened, his eyes flashed with fierceness, and then, as if he thought of something, the smile on his lips grew bigger and bigger.
[Black face? Leaked! The couple was just having a fight, and got bruises on each other's faces? Big leak! They kissed! ]
[As for why they rarely appear in the same frame, it’s because one of them has to take care of the baby! ]
!!!
That night, an entry on StarNet called "Enemy Literature" was on the hot search list all night. It was filled with speeches by riddlers, short essays, abstract copywriting, long paragraphs of unclear onomatopoeia, and some people who took the opportunity to eat food and promote their cooking, popping up like bamboo shoots after rain.
Many uninformed citizens clicked in with a curious look on their faces, and then left with a confused look on their faces.
What happened again?
