After listening to the system, Du Yuanzhe decided to change his attitude towards Wang Linxuan.
He had previously wanted to get rid of Wang Lianxuan, but after learning that the Luck Plundering System could change hosts indefinitely, he changed his mind and decided that it would be best if the Luck Plundering System could not leave Wang Lianxuan.
The system told Du Yuanzhe that it could tell that the Luck Plundering System had used special means on Wang Linxuan. If the other party changed the host, the system would not be able to detect it.
Rather than facing an unknown opponent, it is better to continue dealing with Wang Lianxuan.
But not dealing with Wang Lianxuan does not mean allowing her to stir up trouble; surveillance of her must continue.
Xia Ningmi returned from a business trip the day after the official announcement of the female lead in "Yun Miao". The total business trip lasted less than a week, which is relatively short.
Du Yuanzhe felt that the time was very long. He hadn't seen Xia Ningmi at home these few days, and he always felt like something was missing. He always lacked energy to eat alone in the evening.
Habit is a terrible thing. He had lived with Xia Ningmi for more than 20 years, but he could no longer adapt to living alone after living with her for less than a year.
As soon as Xia Ningmi opened the door and walked in, Du Yuanzhe couldn't control his excitement. He walked over quickly and hugged her. He smelled her familiar scent and felt satisfied. "Why didn't you tell me so I could pick you up at the airport?"
Xia Ningmi closed her eyes and leaned into his arms, saying, "I'm not a child."
Du Yuanzhe was dissatisfied: "Who said that only children need to be picked up? My girlfriend is back from a business trip, so what's wrong with me wanting to pick her up at the airport? Didn't you pick me up before?"
Xia Ning tried to compromise: "I'll let you pick it up next time."
Du Yuanzhe hugged her tightly: "It's better not to have a next time."
“That’s not going to happen.”
Du Yuanzhe was helpless: "You don't have to be so honest. Can't I just think about it?"
Xia Ningmi said nothing more.
Cheng Yu, who was ignored by the two people, saw this scene, with excitement suppressed in his eyes. It turned out that the president and the second young master got along like this in private. For some reason, he felt that the president leaning in the second young master's arms was a little obedient.
Cheng Yu didn't dare to interrupt the young couple. After putting down the suitcase, he left quietly.
However, Du Yuanzhe still heard the slight sound she made when she closed the door. He let go of Xia Ningmi and looked towards the door: "I think I heard some sound?"
Xia Ning saw the suitcase at the entrance and said, "Cheng Yu came back with me."
Du Yuanzhe's face froze, and he silently recalled his actions just now. He felt relieved when he felt that he had not done anything to ruin his image.
"Why didn't Qiqi remind me?"
He was not used to being close to Xia Ningmi in front of outsiders.
Xia Ningmi walked into the living room: "I thought you saw it."
She really didn't expect that Du Yuanzhe would not notice Cheng Yu, a living person.
Du Yuanzhe thought about it and realized that it was indeed his own fault. He said, "At that time, I only had you in my eyes. How could I see anyone else?"
Xia Ning paused, looked around and said, "I heard that when a girlfriend is not at home, a man will always make a mess of the house."
The house was still very clean, no different from when she left.
Du Yuanzhe laughed when he heard that: "You sound like you did the housework when you were at home. Isn't it the housekeeper who does all the housework in our house?"
They didn't even have to buy groceries. Someone would come to replace the ingredients in the refrigerator every few days. If Du Yuanzhe hadn't deliberately avoided them, their cohabitation would have been discovered long ago.
Xia Ning looked at him and asked, "What have you been doing at home these days?"
Du Yuanzhe said: "It's the same as before, working out, playing games, and using the phone. Oh, there's one more thing, chatting with you."
They were separated for five days. Du Yuanzhe would send her a message whenever he missed Xia Ningmi, and would also send her anything interesting he saw. He did this so often that she was worried that Xia Ningmi would find him annoying.
However, Xia Ningmi didn't say anything. No matter what he sent, as long as Xia Ningmi was free, she would respond.
Xia Ning glanced at the row of green plants on the balcony and said, "You forgot to mention one thing."
Du Yuanzhe said, "Brother Liu brought these here, saying they would liven up our house. I also felt that our house was too dull, so I asked him to put in some more. This kind of green plant is easy to grow, just remember to water it and loosen the soil regularly."
Xia Ningmi retracted her gaze: "You are responsible!"
Du Yuanzhe smiled and said, "Of course I am in charge when I am at home, but if I go out to film, then you will be in charge."
Xia Ning frowned and looked at him.
Du Yuanzhe knew she was bothering him, so he said, "Just water them when you have time. You don't even need to water them in winter. It's a simple thing. Don't always think about work. Take a look at these green plants occasionally to change your mood."
He got these green plants because he thought that when he was not at home, there would be something to divert Xia Ningmi's attention, which was better than just thinking about work every day.
Xia Ningmi was still not happy, but Du Yuanzhe showed his strength for once and did not give her a chance to refuse, so it was settled.
The two of them sat on the sofa, and Du Yuanzhe asked, "The official announcement of Yunmiao was made so quickly. Was it your order?"
Xia Ningmi asked, "Aren't you always worried about having too many dreams at night?"
Du Yuanzhe smiled and said, "I knew Qiqi was thinking about me. Wang Lianxuan will probably find out who is protecting Lingling behind the scenes. That person is a bit shady, so it's best not to let her find out about you."
Xia Ning said: "If I don't want anyone to find out, she won't find out anything."
Wang Lianxuan is not Jiang Chelin. Although she relies on Grandpa Jiang, she does not have the Jiang family's connections. With her ability, what she can find out is actually very limited.
Du Yuanzhe was relieved: "That's good. We don't need to put ourselves in the open. Enemies in the dark will be more feared."
If the Luck Plundering System cannot find them, it will become cautious, and once it is cautious, it will easily become hesitant. As long as it hesitates, it will give Du Yuanzhe a chance.
Xia Ningmi said nothing.
She had long suspected that Du Yuanzhe was dealing with a special enemy, but she couldn't guess what it was without Du Yuanzhe telling her, and she couldn't even detect what he was thinking.
All she could do was to support Du Yuanzhe with all her strength and help him accomplish what he wanted to do.
In the entire Yancheng, there are few things that Xia Ningmi cannot do.
......
In the car
Liu Xu said, "You'll be busy for a while. After taking the promotional photos for this endorsement, you'll have to take photos for three more endorsements, and you'll also have to arrange a magazine cover."
Liu Xu was very picky when choosing endorsements for Du Yuanzhe. At the very least, it had to be a quasi-first-tier endorsement. Even so, he still got him three endorsements.
In addition, there is another magazine to be shot, and it is the cover of a top men's magazine. Although the August issue is not an important month, it is already very good for Du Yuanzhe to be on the cover of a top men's magazine for the first time.
There are five major men's magazines in the entertainment industry. Every male star wants to be on the covers of all five men's magazines to achieve a grand slam dunk, but not many people have accomplished this.
As soon as Du Yuanzhe became famous, he was able to appear on the cover of a top men's magazine. This was not only a recognition of his fame, but also a recognition of his appearance, and it could quickly increase his value.
When Liu Xu received the invitation to shoot for a magazine, he almost thought he had misheard.
Du Yuanzhe said: "Brother Liu can make the arrangements. I am not too busy."
Every artist will have a lot more schedules when they first become famous, but Du Yuanzhe's schedule is already very small.
He can only have these few schedules now, not only because Liu Xu looks down on endorsements below the quasi-first-tier level, but also because Xia Ningmi personally gave the order, allowing Du Yuanzhe to choose freely.
Whenever Liu Xu thought of it, he sighed: "Thanks to President Xia's words, those senior executives didn't force us to do anything."
Xiaopang said, "Now everyone in the company is guessing whether Xiaodu has privately asked Xia for help."
Du Yuanzhe had no schedule before, so Xiaopang was also free. He has a pleasing appearance and a sweet mouth, and has good relationships with many people in the company. He can always quickly get to know all kinds of news in the company.
Du Yuanzhe casually turned the white ring on his left hand and said, "Let them guess slowly. I really want to know if anyone can guess it correctly."
He was in a very conflicted mood, hoping to keep it a secret for a while longer, but at the same time he couldn't accept that they didn't even think that he and Xia Ningmi might have a relationship.
Liu Xu glanced at his ring and said, "I have arranged a luxury brand endorsement for you. Their company just launched a new jewelry. Apart from anything else, you must wear their ring when you attend events in the future."
The ring on Du Yuanzhe's left middle finger is too conspicuous. So far, he has never worn the ring in public, but as his fame increases, someone will definitely take photos of him at the airport or other private photos of him shopping. As long as the ring is photographed once, fans will notice it.
Instead of always being on guard, it is better to wear it openly, you just need to wear one more.
Du Yuanzhe readily accepted: "That's perfect. It saves me from having to take off my ring all the time."
Liu Xu snorted coldly: "It is because of this ring of yours that I tried to help you contact this jewelry brand. Thanks to your hard work, they are willing to hire you as a brand ambassador. Otherwise, I would have to advise you to wear the ring as a necklace around your neck for the time being."
"Sorry for the trouble, Brother Liu."
"Agents are meant to be hard workers. I'm used to it. After we sign the contract in a few days, you can put the ring on. From now on, whenever you wear rings on your hands, you must wear at least two."
Du Yuanzhe suddenly had an idea and said, "If I wear ten gold rings, will people think I am deliberately showing off my wealth?"
Liu Xu's eyebrows jumped, and he said coldly: "People will only think that you are a fool, the kind of person who is stupid and has a lot of money."
Du Yuanzhe had no choice but to give up the idea: "Forget it, I want to maintain my image as a male god."
Due to the hit TV series “Legend of Yun Lan”, the character Luo Xun played by Du Yuanzhe became extremely popular and many people have named him as their male god. He saw many fans changed their profile pictures to Luo Xun under his Weibo.
The group quickly arrived at the filming location. Before getting off the car, Du Yuanzhe took off his ring and put it away carefully without Liu Xu's reminder.
Seeing them get off the bus, the person in charge came up to them and said, "Teacher Du, I'm going to trouble you from now on."
杜元哲道：“我會全力配合，王總別嫌我沒經驗就好。”
王總笑道：“我們攝影師之前還說，就憑杜老師的長相，都不需要做什麽動作，站着不動就行。”
“哪位攝影老師這麽誇我，今天中午給他加雞腿。”
聽到這話，其他人都笑了。
王總心情很好，公司新找的代言人并沒有火起來就飄了，說話謙虛又幽默，接下來的合作不用擔心了。
拍攝宣傳照，其實和拍戲差不多，都是需要換衣服和化妝，只不過拍戲突出的是角色，代言需要突出他代言的東西。
比如杜元哲代言的是手表，所以當他化好妝站在攝像頭前面，攝像師提醒他擺的幾個動作，全是為了讓手表顯眼一些。
甚至還拍了好幾張手部特寫。
拍宣傳照也不是一件容易事，杜元哲需要換好幾次衣服，連造型都換了一次，有貴公子風格，也有成功人士風格。
反正一切都是為了和手表的氣質搭配。
杜元哲在拍攝間隙看了眼照片，很佩服攝影師的拍照能力，他拍出來的照片，讓人感覺杜元哲和手表是互相成就的。
就給人一種杜元哲戴上這款手表給自己加分不少的感覺。
“拍宣傳照的攝影老師都這麽厲害嗎？”
劉旭聽到他的感嘆，道：“酒香也怕巷子深，對公司來說，最重要的就是宣傳，多花點錢請個好點的攝影師，對公司來說穩賺不賠，請攝影師再費錢，和你的代言費也沒辦法比。”
杜元哲：“那我可得好好拍攝，為了攝影老事的技術，也為了我的代言費。”
小胖笑道：“哲哥別忘了給人家加雞腿。”
“給他加兩個！”
與此同時，其他工作人員也在讨論杜元哲。
“洛尋真的好帥啊。”
“人家叫杜元哲，我早就知道他，但以前沒感覺他這麽帥，也不知道是不是紅氣養人，總覺得他更帥了。”
“不僅帥性格還好，我剛才給他送衣服，他還和我說謝謝，我們之前遇到的那個明星，別說謝謝了，簡直把我們當仆人，特別心安理得地支使我們做事。”
“就是，某些明星一出名就不知道自己是誰了，就好像自己地位有多高一樣，我每次遇到這種人都特別想問他，他見到比自己咖位高的人是不是直接下跪。”
“哈哈哈這個問題好，哪天我要是實在受不了就這麽問。”
八卦是人的天性，尤其是當幾個人湊在一起時，更是忍不住八卦。
杜元哲就算不知道他們在說什麽，可注意到他們時不時投過來的目光，也能猜到話題和他有關。
拍攝持續到中午還沒有拍完，負責人宣布暫停拍攝，先讓大家吃飯。
給杜元哲幾人準備的是附近飯店大廚的拿手菜，光聞到香味就讓人受不了。
杜元哲對美食沒有抵抗力，道：“吃完這頓飯，我又能行了。”
小胖和他是同道中人：“還是和哲哥一起工作好，總能吃到好吃的。”
劉旭道：“你們兩個能不能有點逼格？”
杜元哲：“我們這是在表達對美食的贊美。”
小胖瘋狂點頭。
劉旭心累。
吃完中午飯休息一會兒就繼續拍攝，杜元哲身為演員最熟悉的就是鏡頭，并沒有因為表情不自然浪費時間，他們大部分時間都消耗在化妝和換衣服上。
一直拍到下午三點才結束。
王總對這次拍攝很滿意，笑道：“今天多謝杜老師，合作愉快。”
杜元哲和他握手：“合作愉快。”
幾人一起上了車，杜元哲靠在座椅上：“拍一天照片也挺累的，不過比上綜藝好多了，果然還是代言費最好賺。”
劉旭瞥他：“想多接幾個代言了？”
“并沒有。”
他對錢的欲望不大，而且他現在已經賺得夠多了，以他的标準來看，自己已經到了錢只是一串數字的境界。
換個具體點的解釋，整個煙城，就沒有他買不起的房子。
前世用房子衡量錢習慣了，杜元哲一想到自己的存款下意識就在心裏默算它能買幾套房子。
晚上夏凝覓下班回家，見他坐在沙發雙眼無神，問道：“在想什麽？”
杜元哲這才注意到她回來，道：“我在想我是不是應該找個專門的人幫我理財，錢總放在銀行卡裏太浪費了。”
夏凝覓放下手提包，道：“我可以幫你理財。”
杜元哲眼睛一亮：“對哦，我都忘了我身邊就有會理財的人。”
話音剛落，他突然想到了什麽，看向夏凝覓戲谑道：“七七你是不是早就觊觎我的錢包，擔心我背着你藏私房錢？”
夏凝覓擡眸看他，仿佛在看傻子一樣：“你是不是忘了你的錢從哪裏來的？”
杜元哲表情凝固。
他差點忘了，不論是片酬還是代言費，都是先打進公司賬戶，經過分配和扣稅後才會打給他。
夏凝覓身為公司總裁，真要想知道杜元哲的賬戶明細，随便點一點手指就可以。
杜元哲喃喃道：“我真藏不了私房錢了。”
“你還有杜氏分紅，那個可以藏。”
“對哦，我還有分紅，謝謝你提醒.....我。”
杜元哲突然意識到剛才那話是夏凝覓說的，表情逐漸變得僵硬。
夏凝覓站在他身邊，淡淡道：“說說吧，你藏私房錢想幹什麽？”
杜元哲縮縮脖子：“我就是随口一說，其實也沒真想藏。”
對他們這種不缺錢的人來說，私房錢意義不大，他們總會有各種各樣的收入來源，夏凝覓也沒有控制他賬戶的想法。
夏凝覓挑眉：“嗯？”
杜元哲道：“真沒有，就是話趕話說到這兒了。”
夏凝覓收回視線，道：“我今天去雲岸會館談生意遇到路軒了。”
杜元哲愣了：“他主動找你說話了？”
夏凝覓道：“問我你最近都在忙什麽，怎麽都不找他玩。”
杜元哲：“他就說了些廢話？”
夏凝覓點頭。
杜元哲臉色變得古怪，道：“這家夥估計處境不太好，這是利用你呢。”
路軒之前被蔣澈霖算計，在圈子裏的地位一落千丈，當初聚會的那些人沒一個幫他保密的，不過幾天功夫，路軒被綠的事就傳遍了整個圈子，那些公子哥只要見到他必定會拿這件事調侃。
“路軒可能是被之前那件事折磨得不行，才想着利用你幫他擋一擋。”
夏凝覓道：“我猜出來了。”
杜元哲：“他會被蔣澈霖報複，主要還是我撺掇他，這次就當幫幫他了，不過也不能這麽便宜他。”
他拿出手機給路軒打過電話去。
剛接通就聽到路軒近乎谄媚的聲音：“哲哥怎麽有空找我了？”
杜元哲渾身一顫：“你好好說話。”
這家夥從來沒喊過他哥。
路軒特別真誠道：“你比我大一歲，我喊你哥是應該的，我這段時間想起以前的事，總覺得自己太不禮貌了，今後一定改正。”
杜元哲沉默，身上的雞皮疙瘩掉了一地。
“對了哲哥，我今天在雲岸會館遇到嫂子了，我心想既然遇到了肯定得打個招呼啊，總不能當沒看見，我就和嫂子聊了幾句，嫂子和你說了沒有？”
杜元哲算是明白了，哥不哥的不重要，路軒這家夥是想喊夏凝覓嫂子。
杜元哲靠在沙發上，幽幽道：“當初也不是誰說我們長久不了，讓我早做打算。”
夏凝覓目光一冷，那冷意仿佛能透過手機刺穿路軒。
路軒莫名打個冷顫，大義凜然道：“這話哪個混蛋說的！哲哥別信這話，我早就覺得你和嫂子肯定能長長久久，我還等着喝你們的喜酒呢。”
夏凝覓聽到這話面色緩和一些。
杜元哲啧啧道：“我以前怎麽沒發現你小子還有拍馬屁的功夫？”
“我不會拍馬屁，這都是我的真心話。”
杜元哲沒好氣道：“別貧了，我還不了解你，說說吧，你到底想做什麽？”
“我沒想什麽......”
杜元哲打斷他：“只有這一次坦白的機會。”
路軒那邊沉默一會兒，嘆氣道：“哲哥，你都不知道我這二十多天是怎麽過的，那幫王八蛋見到我就冷嘲熱諷，還說我不自量力非要招惹蔣澈霖，現在已經沒多少人敢和我玩了。”
杜氏可以保住路家不被蔣澈霖威脅，但影響不了圈子裏的公子哥兒對路軒的态度。
“再這麽下去，我就要被排擠出去了，我思來想去，也就嫂子能救我。”
說到這兒，路軒有些興奮道：“你是沒看到今天那幫人的臉色，我就和嫂子說了幾句話，他們就吓得什麽都不敢做了，還旁敲側擊我是怎麽認識嫂子的。”
“哼，我會告訴他們？”
他們這個圈子裏有一幫公子哥兒，身處圈子的人人脈廣，但同樣很現實。
他們忌憚杜家，不敢招惹杜家人，但并不會因為忌憚杜家就對路軒有顧忌，因為路軒得罪的是蔣澈霖。
但有夏凝覓介入就不一樣了。
Xia Ningmi and Jiang Chelin are the two great gods in their circle, and no one dares to mess with them.
They were as afraid of Jiang Chelin as they were of Xia Ningmi.
These two are both ruthless people. If they accidentally make them unhappy, they will give them overseas travel packages and they may not be able to come back for several years.
This is some people's personal experience, not their own imagination.
Whenever they thought about the possibility that Lu Xuan was being protected by Xia Ningmi, their legs trembled. Not to mention mocking Lu Xuan anymore, they just hoped that Xia Ningmi would not hold them accountable for their previous actions.
Du Yuanzhe said, "I was the one who got you into trouble before. You can take advantage of her this time, but you are not allowed to do bad things under her name outside."
Lu Xuan was overjoyed: "I definitely won't do anything bad. Thank you, Brother Zhe. I'll treat you to a meal some other day."
Du Yuanzhe felt uncomfortable hearing this title. In order to legitimately call Xia Ningmi sister-in-law, Lu Xuan probably wouldn't change the title, so he could only force himself to adapt.
