Chapter 43 Just Wait!
Wen Shuang signed the contract and tactfully expressed her small request to Zhu Lian: the workload should not be too heavy.
After all, he had just started a relationship, and Xuanzhe was a man of his word, so it would take a lot of time for them to get used to each other.
Zhu Lian misunderstood and gently tapped Wen Shuang's forehead, "You are too Buddhist." The momentum is so good at the beginning, what are you waiting for if you don't quickly gain a foothold in the entertainment industry?
Zhu Lian asked someone to clean up the lounge for Wen Shuang. He originally wanted to assign a small assistant to the young man, but after searching around, he couldn't find anyone available, so he put it aside for the time being, thinking of keeping a close eye on him during this period of time.
Wen Shuang informed Xuan Zhe about the dinner party in the evening. President Xuan was not very happy about it, but it was the first day of work, and he couldn't dampen the enthusiasm of the little quail. There was no one at Qingzhou Villa and he was too lazy to go back, so he told Wen Shuang that he was working overtime at the company and would call him when he was done.
"Yeah!" Wen Shuang nodded hurriedly, thinking that having a boyfriend is a different feeling, so reassuring!
Wen Shuang changed into a slightly more formal outfit before leaving. Zhu Lian fixed his collar while muttering, "This is provided by the partner, you can wear it home directly. Remember to show your face in the clothes during the next recording, okay?"
"knew."
They arrived at the reserved restaurant at seven in the evening. Because there were other artists there, they asked for a private room. When Wen Shuang knocked on the door and went in, a drinking party had already started inside. A bunch of people were smoking there, and the smell was not very pleasant.
Zhu Lian didn't know who he saw, and frowned quickly, but then smiled, accompanied by just enough humility, "Oh, Producer Chen is here too. The wind is nice today, and the big guys are all here. Come over to Wen Shuang and meet someone."
There were two directors, three producers, one investor and two artists. One of the male artists looked familiar to Wen Shuang. He seemed to be a prince in the recently popular palace fighting drama. Wen Shuang nodded in recognition of them one by one. In fact, he could not remember many faces through the thin mist. The smell of cigarettes gave him a headache. He just wanted to go back quickly after eating and find his boyfriend to take a deep breath to detoxify.
Producer Chen's name is Chen Maosheng, he has a round head and a fat belly. He may not have any other talents, but he was born into a lucky family. His brother runs a film and television company in the Radio and Television Industry. It is not as good as Quan Yi, but he has several cash cows under his control. Those who know Chen Maosheng well know that besides drinking and eating, he likes to play with entertainers, especially the young and tender ones. To put it bluntly, Wen Shuang simply grew on Chen Maosheng's sensitive spot. His whole posture changed when Wen Shuang came in, and his eyes were glued to the young man and never moved away.
Zhu Lian was already cursing in her heart. She didn't tell him that Chen Maosheng was here before she came. This man was probably here for Wen Shuang.
Director Zhang Dong looked a little unhappy. He didn't like people like Chen Maosheng very much, but the interpersonal relationships in a circle were complicated, and sometimes he had to maintain superficial peace.
Chen Maosheng gestured to the female artist next to him to sit over, then waved at Wen Shuang: "Come here."
Wen Shuang was respectful and treated these people as his seniors. But just as he approached, Chen Maosheng stretched out a hand, aiming for his face. Wen Shuang felt something was wrong and dodged backwards, but the man's hand went straight down and slid across his thigh.
Facing Wen Shuang's attitude, Chen Maosheng was not angry. Instead, he rubbed his fingertips, as if he had just touched some famous jade, with excitement flashing in his eyes, "I'm talking to you, why are you hiding?"
"Oh, Producer Chen!" Zhu Lian pulled Wen Shuang back, her smile less obvious. "This is an artist I spent a lot of effort to sign, and she still needs to be delivered to the production team unscathed. You..."
"What show?" Chen Maosheng waved his hand, as if to say, "No matter what show it is, I can knock one out for you right now." Even though he was sitting, he wanted to stare at Zhu Lian with his eyes slit. "Anyway, if I ask, Wen Shuang will be a gold medal actress!"
"Gold Medal Actors" is one of the hottest variety shows at the moment, and countless artists are trying their best to get in. Although Chen Maosheng talks big, he has a high probability of making it happen.
Zhu Lian, however, was not buying it: "Why would that be necessary? Wen Shuang has only just started out and has a lot to learn. She hasn't even filmed two movies yet. Wouldn't it be a joke to claim she's a gold medal actress?"
Chen Maosheng narrowed his eyes and frowned.
"Okay, let's drink." Zhang Dong immediately came out to smooth things over.
Chen Maosheng gave Zhang Dong face, clinked his glasses together, drank them all in angrily, and then slammed the glass heavily on the table. The female artist next to him seemed to be very afraid of Chen Maosheng, and lowered her head and shrank her neck.
Wen Shuang sat down next to Zhu Lian, his right leg stiff as if bugs were crawling on it. He felt a chill belatedly. He never expected that he would encounter such a thing on his first meal out.
Over there, Chen Maosheng drank three glasses of wine and his eyes became vague. It was unclear whether he was really drunk or pretending. Zhu Lian went out to touch up her makeup. Wen Shuang was sitting there alone for a while. The young man lowered his eyelids slightly, his eyelashes were long, and the shadow he cast seemed to have a hook. The whole person was like an exquisite oil painting placed in an elegant hall. Some people kept their distance from him, but some people wanted to be contaminated by filth.
Chen Maosheng felt a heat in his lower abdomen, and his eyes suddenly turned green. He began to imagine what it would feel like to have Wen Shuang pressed under him.
"Xiao Shuang..." Chen Maosheng stepped forward again, keeping a low profile.
Wen Shuang dodged backwards as if she had been electrocuted, staring at Chen Maosheng vigilantly.
Although Wen Shuang is not a face lover and does not like to judge people by their appearance, Chen Maosheng's greasy face at this moment really makes him feel sick.
"Look, you are a newcomer. The entertainment industry is not a place where Zhu Lian can lead you. You might as well follow me. I promise that in half a year! Just half a year! I can make you a hot-shot top star within half a year. Consider it." Chen Maosheng spoke without hesitation and even put out his dirty hands.
Wen Shuang couldn't bear it any longer, so she slapped it away and stood up too violently, spilling the juice, which immediately splashed on Chen Maosheng.
"Fuck!" Chen Maosheng was furious. He had been so servile and devoted to her twice, and only Wen Shuang had received such treatment. In the end, he refused to accept the toast and had to drink the forfeit. What a noble act! How many people in this circle can stick to their original intentions? They started out saying no and resisted violently, but within three months, there were many who came to him crying and begging him. It was just that he liked this face. Thinking of this, Chen Maosheng glared at Wen Shuang fiercely, "You have backbone, right? Okay, just wait and see!"
The female artist behind Chen Maosheng immediately cast a worried look at Wen Shuang. This old man had too many dirty tricks to force people to submit.
Zhu Lian pushed the door open and found the atmosphere tense. Then he heard Shuang's resounding reply: "Just wait!"
Zhu Lian: ""
According to Wen Shuang's previous personality, he would have endured it. At worst, he would have gone back and paid the liquidated damages. Anyway, he could not accept any of these so-called unspoken rules. But after being threatened by Chen Maosheng just now, Wen Shuang's mind suddenly lit up. His first thought was: Who are you threatening?
It would be fine if he fought alone, but he has a boyfriend! And his boyfriend is the most amazing person in this world!
Director Zhang Dong looked at Wen Shuang in astonishment. It was the first time he had seen such a disrespectful newcomer. Was he really a young and inexperienced person, or did he have a strong backing? Judging from Chen Maosheng's sullen face, the situation would not be resolved peacefully unless Wen Shuang climbed up the ladder.
Chen Maosheng stared at Wen Shuang for a few seconds, then suddenly calmed down. He sneered and sat back down. "Okay, I'll wait." He pointed to the door and said, leaving no room for negotiation. "Either you leave sideways today, or I leave sideways."
Wen Shuang took out her cell phone, looking like she was going to tell the parents.
Zhang Dong and several others were almost unable to bear to watch.
Zhu Lian originally wanted to swallow her pride and say a few nice words, but she accidentally saw Wen Shuang opening the chat box with President Xuan.
Zhu Lian: ""
Wen Shuang typed quickly: [I want to tell you something.]
Xuanzhe's phone displayed "typing", and the next second: [You say.]
Wen Shuang: [I might be being taken advantage of.]
Xuanzhe: [My relationship with you is called unspoken rules]
Zhu Lian: “”Fuck!”
Wen Shuang paused for a moment: [Come and pick me up, someone just touched my thigh.]
The next second, Xuanzhe called and the man asked in a cold tone, "What's going on?"
"Oh, they really called!" Chen Maosheng laughed wildly at this, not noticing that Zhu Lian's eyes were full of sympathy when she looked at him. He didn't think that Wen Shuang, a newcomer, could have any backing. "Come, get your sponsor over here. I, Chen Maosheng, will be watching today!"
Xuanzhe didn't know what he said, but Wen Shuang just pressed the hands-free key and said, "Open it."
"Chen Maosheng, the second son of the Chen family of Xinyuan Media," Xuanzhe said in a cold voice, accompanied by the sound of slow and measured footsteps, "Which hand did you use to touch Wen Shuang just now?"
The private room fell into dead silence, and only a handful of people dared to open their mouths and call him "Chen Lao Er". Chen Maosheng felt that the voice was somewhat familiar, so familiar that he felt a chill on his back for no reason. Looking at Wen Shuang's fearless look, his uneasiness gradually grew and instantly captured his mind.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Maosheng asked nonchalantly, "Who is it?"
Zhang Dong closed his eyes: Xuanzhe. He had once been lucky enough to meet Xuanzhe and was deeply impressed by everything about this powerful man. He thought he couldn't stay any longer, otherwise he would die with Chen Maosheng. Zhang Dong stood up, not wanting to watch the fun. "I have something to do at home. Goodbye."
Zhang Dong finally understood why Wen Shuang, a rising star, had no shady history at all. His face was filled with the word "innocence." It wasn't so much that he was completely ignorant of the dark side of the entertainment industry, but rather that he was fearless because Xuan Zhe was the one protecting him!
Zhang Dong is a weather vane, with his lightning avoidance skills maxed out. Everyone in the circle who knows him knows this. Seeing Zhang Dong like this, the others also smelled the danger and said goodbye one after another. They were all friends over the wine table, and there was no such thing as living and dying together. For a moment, only Wen Shuang, Zhu Lian and Chen Maosheng were left in the private room.
Chen Maosheng seemed to have anticipated something and wanted to leave, but Zhu Lian stopped him in the name of a toast. "No, please wait a moment."
The moment Xuanzhe pushed the door open, Chen Maosheng's face turned pale.
Wen Shuang heaved a sigh of relief when she saw him. As soon as she stood up and walked forward, she was hugged into Xuanzhe's arms. Wen Shuang was stunned for a moment, then hugged him back and took a deep breath of the cold fragrance. It felt great!
Zhu Lian was so excited that she wanted to dance. She had guessed it! Really! But it was nowhere near as shocking as seeing it with her own eyes!
"Are you scared?" Xuanzhe asked in a deep voice.
"It's okay." Wen Shuang felt a little embarrassed. It was like he was wronged outside and went home to complain to his parents. But in the situation just now, he had no way to do anything unless he brought up Xuan Zhe. He had no power and influence, and he could be killed by Chen Maosheng.
Wen Shuang is strong-willed and thoughtful. She doesn't like to trouble others, but she also knows how to protect herself and will admit defeat when necessary.
Xuanzhe gently stroked the back of Wen Shuang's head, his eyes passing over the young man and falling on Chen Maosheng. It was as if an abyss was beside him, making people feel frightened from the bottom of their hearts.
"Which hand did you use to touch Wen Shuang?" Xuanzhe asked again.
Zhu Lian quickly answered: "Right hand!"
"Mr. Xuan, Mr. Xuan..." Chen Maosheng started to stutter recently and was no longer as generous as before in spending money.
Xuanzhe took Wen Shuang out, ignoring Chen Maosheng's increasingly hoarse explanation behind him.
"What will Assistant Cao do?" Wen Shuang asked, looking up.
Xuanzhe lied with his eyes open, "Talk to him properly and then inform his family. His brother has always wanted to cooperate with me, so he will definitely give me an explanation."
Wen Shuang believed it without a doubt: "That's good."
The reasonable Cao Nanyu had already had Chen Maosheng pinned down, looking down at the man condescendingly, "If you hadn't done all this, I would have been home."
Chen Maosheng watched Cao Nanyu picking through a pile of wine bottles, his face pale with fear. "No! No, no, no! Please, please tell Mr. Xuan for me, tell him, I don't know! I really don't know!"
"I can't help." Cao Nanyu made his choice and weighed it in his hand. "Kill the chicken to scare the monkey, so that no one will think about Wen Shuang in the future." He patted Chen Maosheng's face and said with a fake smile: "Don't you think about it, the person Zhu Lian personally accompanied here, is someone you can touch?"
The screams were blocked by the well-insulated door, and Wen Shuang thought Cao Nanyu was giving Chen Maosheng an ideological and political lesson.
Although Zhu Lian was full of gossip, since President Xuan was in a bad mood, she didn't want to offend him and took a taxi home.
Xuanzhe's car stopped by the roadside. As soon as Wen Shuang got in, a big hand reached out and unbuckled his belt.
"Yeah." Wen Shuang grabbed him and looked back at Xuan Zhe with horror on her face.
"Take it off." Xuanzhe said concisely.
Wen Shuang lowered her voice and tried to reason, "We've just started dating, and the pace is too fast. I can't accept it."
Xuanzhe's mouth twitched, and looking at the young man's fair and serious face, the hostility in his heart dissipated a lot. He leaned forward and kissed Wen Shuang on the lips with unconcealable tenderness, "But I like this rhythm, what should I do?"
The touch was so wonderful that Xuanzhe almost pulled away, but Wen Shuang kept moving forward and touched him lightly. Finally, ignoring Xuanzhe's suddenly deep eyes, she stretched out her pink tongue to lick her lips, looking as if she was still not satisfied.
Xuanzhe turned around, closed the car door, pressed Wen Shuang onto the seat and began to kiss her. They hadn't seen each other for a whole day, and no matter how much he comforted himself that he didn't care, he still missed her so much.
"I asked you to take off your pants just now, not to hurry up." Xuanzhe had already taken off Wen Shuang's belt. He gently lifted his waist and pulled his pants down, saying in a bad tone, "It's just that when I thought about Chen Maosheng touching you, I felt that these pants were dirty."
Wen Shuang was so dizzy from being kissed that she took the time to respond: "You are so jealous."
Xuanzhe curled his lips: "Just know."
