Chapter 287: Ma Zi
Amidst laughter and chatter, the car quickly drove back to Xinghai International Community.
However, this "fast" was only felt by the three people in the car. Even if there was no traffic jam, it would take an hour to get from the restaurant to Lu Wanqi's home. They happened to be on a very congested main road, so it was almost three hours later when they arrived at the community.
After parking the car, Tang Shuo turned around and said, "Your dad might be upstairs, so I won't go up. I have something to do tomorrow morning, so I'll come back this afternoon."
Lu Wanqi nodded and said, "Come over for lunch tomorrow. I'll make it myself then."
"Yeah." Tang Shuo nodded, and under Lu Wanqi's loving gaze, he drove out of the community.
When the car disappeared, Xiao Ran, who was standing aside, patted Lu Wanqi and said, "Don't look, they've already gone far away."
Lu Wanqi put on an arrogant look, turned around and walked straight upstairs.
Xiao Ran shook his head and followed him.
After ringing the doorbell, Lu Qian quickly opened the door.
"You're finally back." Lu Qian said with a smile, "Your father came back before he even got off work this afternoon, and kept asking me when you'd be back. If it had been any later, he would have gone to look for you himself."
"Director Li Quan called to discuss matters related to the movie." Lu Wanqi replied.
Lu Wanqi and Xiao Ran walked into the house with a smile, only to see Lu Xiangrong glance over and then immediately turn his head away, apparently still angry about what happened at noon.
"Have you eaten?" Lu Qian asked.
"I've eaten." Lu Wanqi replied, then pointed at Lu Xiangrong and asked in a low voice, "My dad is still angry?"
"Yeah." Lu Qian nodded and said, "It's all about work, not because of you."
Lu Wanqi then tiptoed over, sat next to Lu Xiangrong and said, "Dad, are you still angry?"
"How dare I get angry?" Lu Xiangrong replied, "If I were angry, wouldn't you and your daughter kick me out?"
A crisp laugh suddenly rang out in the room, and Lu Wanqi immediately said, "How could that be? Who dares to kick you out?"
Lu Xiangrong snorted and asked, "Where's Tang Shuo?"
"Back to the hotel." Lu Wanqi replied.
"That's his rule." Lu Xiangrong seemed very satisfied with Tang Shuo's arrangement. He nodded and said, "You just said Li Quan wanted to see you. Is it about the new movie?"
"Yeah." Lu Wanqi nodded, and then praised: "Actually, Li Quan was not looking for me, but Xiaoran and Tang Shuo."
"Huh?" Lu Xiangrong asked doubtfully, "What's going on?"
"He asked Xiaoran to sing the theme song for a movie and planned to release it first." Lu Wanqi said, "He asked Tang Shuo to play the male lead."
"ah……"
Before Lu Xiangrong could answer, Lu Qian, who was standing beside him, exclaimed in surprise.
However, anyone would be surprised to hear such shocking news. If she didn't know that her daughter would not lie casually, she would definitely doubt her daughter's words.
"Isn't this nonsense?" Lu Xiangrong frowned and said, "Li Quan is gambling with his reputation. Does Tang Shuo know how to make a movie?"
Lu Wanqi didn't explain anything. After a smile, she released another incredible piece of news.
"But Tang Shuo refused."
“…”
After a while, Lu Xiangrong finally shook his head and said to Lu Wanqi, "You and Xiaoran should go take a shower and go to bed."
"You should also go to bed early." Lu Wanqi said.
It is almost eleven o'clock now, and Lu Xiangrong usually goes to bed at ten o'clock in the evening. This kind of situation at night will not happen even once a year.
Lu Xiangrong nodded and smiled.
Half an hour later, Lu Wanqi, who had already taken a shower, was about to go get some water. When she passed by the living room, she found Lu Xiangrong still sitting on the sofa with a frown on his face. "Dad, why haven't you rested yet?"
Not knowing what he was thinking, Lu Xiangrong came back to his senses, glanced at the time, and said with a forced smile: "It's so late, I'm going to bed now!"
Lu Wanqi looked at Lu Xiangrong's back with some worry. She knew that her father must have something on his mind. However, although she was also an artist under her father's company, he never told her about work.
Since the other party didn't say much, she didn't ask any more questions.

Pearl, Banjiang Hotel.
After Tang Shuo returned to the hotel, he found that both Jesus and Shen Yuqi were not there. After calling his senior sister, Tang Shuo stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the hotel room, looking at the river view that was so close to him.
Not long after, the hotel doorbell rang.
After Tang Shuo opened the door, he saw a man in his forties wearing a suit standing at the door.
"Is this Mr. Tang?" asked the man in the suit.
"It's me." Tang Shuo nodded and said, "Let's talk inside."
The man in the suit followed Tang Shuo into the room and introduced himself: "My name is Lao Wu, Mr. Tang, you can just call me Xiao Wu."
"Hmm." Tang Shuo sat on the sofa and said, "Please check two things for me. Pang Xing, the son of Mingzhu's leader Pang Wei, should be in the hospital right now. Please keep an eye on anyone who has visited him in the past two days. Also, check if there are any major events happening at Times Entertainment recently."
"Okay." Xiaowu, the man in the suit, agreed and immediately turned around and left the room.
“…”
The next morning, Tang Shuo got up and did some simple exercises. When he finished his shower and walked out, Jesus and Shen Yuqi were already sitting in the living room of the suite.
Seeing Jesus' energetic appearance, it's not hard to guess where he spent the previous day.
When Shen Yuqi saw Tang Shuo coming out, he immediately stood up and said, "Mr. Tang, have I arranged for someone to prepare breakfast?"
Tang Shuo nodded and asked, "Do you know someone named Pang Xing?"
Shen Yuqi frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said, "You're talking about Ma Zi, right?"
pock?
Tang Shuo thought about Pang Xing's face, nodded and said, "If his father is Pang Wei, then it must be him."
"That's him." Shen Yuqi said, "This guy is a little playboy, relying on Pang Wei's influence to cause trouble all day long."
At this point, Shen Yuqi suddenly remembered something and said in a daze: "Did this guy offend you?"
Shen Yuqi had some basic understanding of Tang Shuo's background, and also knew a little about Tang Shuo's style of doing things.
This Pang Xing might be considered a big shot in the eyes of ordinary people in the circle, but how could Tang Shuo believe him?
When Tang Shuo asked about the other party at this time, it was obvious that he had some grudge against Ma Zi.
"No." Tang Shuo shook his head and said, "I just played a little joke on him yesterday."
At this time, the waiter rang the door, Jesus went out and opened the door, and the waiter came in pushing the dining cart.
After the other party left, Shen Yuqi said, "This Pang Xing doesn't really have any abilities, but he's close to several other people in Mingzhu's inner circle, so he's a bit tricky."
He has now completely analyzed Pang Xing as his opponent. As for the little joke that Tang Shuo told, he would definitely not believe it.
Tang Shuo nodded and said with a smile, "Let's eat first. After dinner, come with me to Pudong New Area."
Yesterday on the road, Shen Yuqi had already given Tang Shuo a brief introduction to several people in the Mingzhu circle. At that time, the other party did not mention Pang Xing at all, so Tang Shuo had no hesitation when dealing with the other party.
Mingzhu might not be as good as Yanjing, but taking root here isn't necessarily easy. Furthermore, the people here don't have the deep connections of Yanjing, so they tend to be more aggressive. It's hard to judge what's more important.
"Yeah." Shen Yuqi agreed and immediately started eating with Tang Shuo.
After dinner, the three of them went straight downstairs.
Shen Yuqi's feet were not convenient, so Tang Shuo acted as the driver himself and drove directly to the Tianyue Club in Pudong New Area.
When they parked in the parking lot in front of the clubhouse, Shen Yuqi, who obviously knew this place, asked in surprise, "Tianyue?"
"Yeah." Tang Shuo nodded and said, "But I won't call you Tianyue anymore from now on."
Then he took out his phone and called Zheng Xiaowan directly. Zheng Xiaowan had come to Mingzhu a few days ago. After handing over Tianyue with Song Wenchang's people, she has now started to deal with the matters here.
