【232. Invitation List】
Li Mingle didn't quite understand what Bai Zhian meant, so he felt uneasy when he sat there.
Bai Zhian felt at ease and started eating voraciously.
"You don't have to be nervous." Bai Zhian waved at him, then stood up and went to the refrigerator to get him a bottle of drink.
"Actually, you don't have to be afraid of Cheng Qingxing. He's not a big star like Zheng Xuhe."
When Li Mingle heard Zheng Xuhe's name, he became even more nervous. He came up to her and asked, "I didn't know about their relationship before. If I knew they were a couple, I would definitely be more respectful when we chatted."
Li Mingle took out his mobile phone and looked through the chat records of him and Cheng Qingxing discussing the script. He actually had a chance to refute Cheng Qingxing.
He slapped himself hard in his heart, feeling that he was getting too complacent!
"No, when you two were chatting, you should have been talking about the script, right?" Bai Zhian asked with a roll of his eyes.
"Yes." Li Mingle nodded.
Besides discussing the script, the two of them also talked about the recording time and of course the confirmation of some personnel.
Li Mingle would talk to him about it. After all, Cheng Qingxing was the only confirmed staff member of "The Decryption Detective" so he would definitely discuss with him about who to invite.
"That's fine. You're the main creator and he's the one getting paid. Just chat with him." Bai Zhian deliberately raised his voice a few decibels, "Right? Teacher Cheng?"
Cheng Qingxing just came out with the cooked pickled fish. When he heard Bai Zhian's words, he responded with disdain: "Stop talking nonsense. If you want to eat hairy crabs, come and make the seasoning yourself."
"Hey~" Bai Zhian said impatiently, "I don't want to do it. I'm here to enjoy myself. You can do it yourself."
Cheng Qingxing walked over, raised his hand, and strangled her neck.
"Oooh...ah..." Bai Zhian was strangled to the point of being unable to breathe. When she felt she was going to die, Li Mingle came up and held them both.
Li Mingle held their wrists and said cautiously, "I'll go, I'll go."
Cheng Qingxing glanced at him, loosened his hand, and then sighed and said, "Okay, come if you want, don't make trouble for me."
Li Mingle nodded, then quickly followed him into the kitchen. He looked at the hairy crab and started to cut it apart with scissors. His movements were quick and decisive, and he seemed to be someone who often worked in the kitchen.
Seeing that he could do everything without his teaching, Cheng Qingxing continued to cook his own dishes.
There was only the sound of two people cooking in the kitchen, and no chat at all.
Bai Zhian outside felt a little bored, and the kitchen was so quiet, so she walked back with her drink.
She looked at the two busy people, leaned against the kitchen door frame, and said calmly: "You two really look like good wives and good mothers."
Li Mingle certainly didn't dare to reply. Cheng Qingxing rolled her eyes at her and said in a cold voice, "If she can cook, she is a good wife and mother. Then your father is also a good wife and mother."
Cheng Qingxing had been to Bai Zhian’s house for dinner before. Bai Zhian’s father was also a great cook and could make several delicious dishes by himself in the kitchen.
But Bai Zhian is different. She is the typical career-oriented woman who can’t cook.
Her classic quote is: My hands can only be used for creation. Things like cooking should be taught to other talented people.
When Cheng Qingxing heard this, he actually just wanted to kick her, but because her father was there, he held back.
"My father is indeed a good wife and mother." Bai Zhian didn't care about Cheng Qingxing's words at all. After all, they had known each other for so many years, and she knew very well what a good person Cheng Qingxing was.
As soon as she finished speaking, Cheng Qingxing kicked her, causing her to scream in pain.
"Why did you hit me so hard?" Bai Zhian said aggrievedly.
These were clearly very aggrieved words, but while saying them, he did not forget to take a sip of the drink in front of him.
"I'm just helping out." Cheng Qingxing gave her a look of disdain, "Take out the stir-fried beef with green peppers over there. Don't just stand here and do nothing."
Bai Zhian finished the drink in her hand in one breath, threw it into the trash can, and then walked away with the plate of food.
Li Mingle watched their interaction from the side and couldn't help but sigh, "You two have such a good relationship."
Cheng Qingxing did not confirm what he said, but he did not deny it either. After all, he and Bai Zhian have known each other for so many years, and there is also the relationship with Zheng Xuhe, so it might be a bit hard to explain.
"I heard from Senior Bai that you two seem to be in the same class." Li Mingle asked quietly, "Are Zheng Xuhe and Yan Shenghui in the same class with you?"
He paused slightly and turned his head to look at Li Mingle, and their eyes met.
Li Mingle saw a hint of hostility in his eyes and quickly waved his hand and said, "No, I'm not curious about your relationship. I'm just curious why you can come from so many circles in the same class."
"Oh." Cheng Qingxing responded meaningfully.
In their class, they all studied acting, but Bai Zhian became a screenwriter behind the scenes, and Yan Shenghui became a model. There is indeed a big gap between them.
"Maybe being an actor is harder." Cheng Qingxing thought for a while and replied, "In our class, only Zheng Xuhe was famous, and the others basically changed careers."
"But I feel that for Yan Shenghui, it won't be difficult to become famous, right?" Li Mingle said subconsciously.
After saying this, Li Mingle regretted it. He really felt that he had said too much. He immediately waved his hand and said, "I...I...I said too much. You...just pretend you didn't hear anything."
Cheng Qingxing curled his lips and smiled slightly, then put the chopped chicken into the pot and started frying it.
Li Mingle said a few words, but the noise from the range hood was very loud, so he didn't hear what the other person said. He just kept his head down and cooked the dishes.
"With Yan Shenghui's status, he will succeed in everything he does." Cheng Qingxing turned off the range hood, lowered his head to pick up a plate of food, looked at him and said with a smile, "But that is the confidence given to him by his family background, not his own confidence."
Li Mingle's brain wasn't very quick, so he didn't understand what he meant at first. By the time he reacted, Cheng Qingxing had already started cleaning the kitchen and asked him to leave.
He stood at the door, looking at Cheng Qingxing who was busy there, and asked in a low voice: "Don't you like Yan Shenghui?"
Cheng Qingxing stopped what he was doing, straightened up, turned his head and looked at him and asked with a smile: "Why do you want to ask about Yan Shenghui?"
"Because Yan Shenghui is on the list of candidates for the "Detective Decryption"." Bai Zhian leaned on the kitchen door frame with one hand and looked at him with a smug smile on his face, "How about it? Can you accept it?"
