Chapter 29: No Cure
Zhang Yulun is from Suzhou and Hangzhou, and her mother is a member of the famous Shen family in Suzhou and Hangzhou.
Relying on his mother's family background, Zhang Yulun's family can be considered wealthy in the relatively wealthy Suzhou and Hangzhou areas.
He was spoiled since childhood and his acting career went smoothly when he grew up, so it is inevitable that he is a little arrogant psychologically.
When he saw that Tang Shuo was so popular, his mentality became a little unbalanced.
Isn't this Tang Shuo just good at some Kung Fu? In what other aspects can he compare to me?
He believed that he was many times better than this man named Tang Shuo in terms of appearance, temperament, and family background.
Zhang Yulun tried his best to hide his resentment and sat silently on the side watching the conversation. However, every time Li Quan persuaded Tang Shuo, his resentment deepened.
In addition, Lu Wanqi, who was sitting next to Tang Shuo, kept turning her head to look at Tang Shuo. All this made him feel like he was going crazy!
More than ten minutes into the dinner, the dishes had just been served when Li Quan had to leave because he had some filming to do in the evening.
Li Quan has already seen that Tang Shuo really has no plans to act in a movie at the moment.
Anyway, no matter how much he persuaded her, she would not perform. If he continued to persuade her, it might backfire and cause Tang Shuo to be disgusted.
Li Quan sighed, stood up, and handed Tang Shuo a business card. "I see you really don't have any plans to act in a film right now, but if you ever have an idea for a movie, please contact me. I'm always open to it."
Tang Shuo also stood up, took the business card and said, "If I had this plan, I would definitely contact you first."
"Yes." Li Quan nodded and said, "Enjoy your meal. I'm leaving now."
Li Quan was about to leave, so it was not appropriate for Zhang Yulun to stay here alone. He also stood up and said to the others with complicated expressions, "I'm done eating too."
Tang Shuo gave Zhang Yulun a subtle smile, patted Lu Wanqi's shoulder affectionately, nodded, and said to the two of them, "Then we won't see you off."
Zhang Yulun shuddered, turned his head and deliberately avoided looking at the two of them. After calling the waiter to pay the bill, he and Li Quan walked towards the elevator.
He actually didn't like Lu Wanqi that much, but he felt that Lu Wanqi should belong to him, not this guy named Tang Shuo.
As soon as he got out of the elevator, Zhang Yulun stopped and hesitated for a moment, holding his stomach and said to Li Quan in front of him: "Director Li, I feel a little unwell. You go first, I will go back to the crew later."
"Are you okay?" Li Quan turned around and asked.
"It's okay, I can go back by myself later."
"Yeah." Li Quan reminded: "Be careful later."
Zhang Yulun was not in the evening scene, so it didn't matter whether he went back or not, so Li Quan gave him a reminder and left alone.
When Zhang Yulun saw Li Quan leave, his handsome face instantly turned gloomy. After walking out of the hotel, he got into the car directly.
…………
Not long after Li Quan and Zhang Yulun left, Tang Shuo said to the two women, "Take your time to eat. I'm going to be out for a while."
"Why are you going out?" Lu Wanqi asked with a frown.
Tang Shuo smiled, but didn't answer Lu Wanqi's question. He said, "I'll be back soon."
After saying that, he immediately stood up and walked downstairs to the hotel.
As soon as he met Zhang Yulun in the evening, Tang Shuo could tell that the other party seemed to have some grudge against him.
If Zhang Yulun could show his anger directly tonight, Tang Shuo would not care about him. People without ulterior motives usually cannot cause any trouble.
But this guy's forbearance aroused Tang Shuo's vigilance.
Zhang Yulun is undoubtedly an extremely jealous person, and such people often do crazy things without considering the consequences.
Tang Shuo was a little worried, so when Zhang Yulun was about to leave, he provoked Zhang Yulun a little to see what he would do.
God said, "If you want to destroy it, you must make it crazy."
Zhang Yulun should have gone crazy by now, so the only thing waiting for him is destruction.
After going downstairs, Tang Shuo saw Li Quan walking towards the hotel entrance, but Zhang Yulun did not follow him.
Tang Shuo knew that his plan had worked, so he followed Zhang Yulun slowly, wanting to see what tricks Zhang Yulun would play.
Zhang Yulun first drove the car to a nightclub. A few minutes later, he came out of the nightclub and drove back to the hotel.
After arriving at the hotel, Zhang Yulun made a phone call, and then a man in hotel uniform came over.
"Brother Zhang, what's the matter?" asked the man in uniform.
Zhang Yulun looked around, took out two bags of marijuana he had just bought at the nightclub, handed them to the uniformed man, and said, "Xiao Qiang, later, go find out which room Lu Wanqi and a man named Tang Shuo are staying in, and then find a way to put the things in there."
Compared to actual drugs, marijuana has a very low addiction rate.
In fact, it’s an open secret in the industry that many artists use marijuana to relieve stress.
But an open secret is still a secret. If it is exposed by the media, then the artist's acting career can be said to be ruined.
And now what Zhang Yulun has to do is to destroy Lu Wanqi!
Since I can't get her, I'll destroy her with my own hands!
This idea, which seems crazy to ordinary people, is a reflection of Zhang Yulun's current inner thoughts.
The uniformed man, Xiaoqiang, frowned and shook his head, "I'm afraid this is inappropriate."
"I'll give you 500,000 after the job is done," Zhang Yulun said. "No matter how you get it in, as long as it's in the newspaper tomorrow, I'll give you the money immediately."
"No." Xiao Qiang looked at Zhang Yulun and refused. "This is too difficult, and there's a high chance they'll find out."
"One million." Zhang Yulun smiled and said, "After you get the money, you must leave Hengzhan immediately."
This man named Xiaoqiang is the housekeeping manager of Hengzhan Hotel. They have known each other for a long time.
Zhang Yulun knew that the other party had a gambling problem and owed a lot of debts. The reason why he rejected him was just because of the price.
As long as he pays enough money, the other party will definitely do it.
"One million and a half million," Xiao Qiang said, "Give me one million and a half million and I'll do it. You just need to pay attention to tomorrow's news. I'll leave as soon as I get the money."
In fact, when Zhang Yulun mentioned the 500,000, Xiaoqiang was ready to agree, as he was in urgent need of money.
He had just lost his salary in gambling two days ago, and he also owed hundreds of thousands of dollars in high-interest loans to the underground casino. If he couldn't pay back the money, those people would definitely not be polite to him.
However, he saw that Zhang Yulun seemed very anxious, and this matter was somewhat risky, so he wondered if he could take advantage of the situation to rob him.
"Deal." Zhang Yulun said through gritted teeth.
After Xiaoqiang took the two bags of marijuana from Zhang Yulun, he went to the hotel's internal system to check the room where Lu Wanqi and Tang Shuo were staying.
This matter is actually very simple for Xiaoqiang, and he doesn't even need to do it himself.
There was a secret compartment under the electric kettle in their hotel. He just had to hide the marijuana under the hotel kettle and then ask a waiter to bring water.
As for the impact of his behavior, that is not something Xiaoqiang needs to consider.
Tang Shuo took in the entire transaction between the two men, said "Damn it", and decided to completely eliminate the hidden danger of Zhang Yulun.
…………
After Lu Wanqi and Xiao Ran finished their meal and returned to their room, Xiao Ran asked, "Wanqi, what did Tang Shuo do?"
"How would I know?" Lu Wanqi replied.
In fact, she was more curious than Xiao Ran. She knew Tang Shuo better than Xiao Ran and knew some of Tang Shuo's secrets.
But since Tang Shuo didn't say anything, there was nothing she could do.
Ever since she realized that the killer trick she had relied on before, which was to deduct her salary, was completely useless against Tang Shuo, she had no good way to restrain Tang Shuo for the time being.
Xiao Ran took a sip of water, turned on the TV, and said to Lu Wanqi, "Why do you think Tang Shuo doesn't want to make a movie?"
"Didn't he say there were more important things?"
"What more important things could he have? He's just a lousy bodyguard." Xiao Ran was stunned when he said this, then pointed at Lu Wanqi and said, "Does he think being your bodyguard is more important than making a movie?"
Before Lu Wanqi could answer, the latest entertainment topic suddenly played on TV: "Actress Lu Wanqi was previously rumored to be having an affair with a mysterious man. Lu Wanqi responded today that the other party was just her assistant, but she did not rule out the possibility of a relationship."
Xiao Ran didn't have time to surf the Internet today, so he didn't know about the events that broke out on the Internet.
She turned to look at Lu Wanqi and said to her angrily, "You're so good! I thought you were my best friend. This is such a big thing that everyone in the country knows about it, and I don't even know about it. How long do you want to keep it from me?"
Lu Wanqi came over with a smile, hugged Xiao Ran's head and comforted her, "Of course we are good friends. Didn't I have time to tell you?"
"Do you really like Tang Shuo?" Xiao Ran raised his head and asked.
Lu Wanqi nodded and said, "That should be the case."
"What do you mean by 'should'?" Xiao Ran thought for a moment and asked, "Does he know?"
"I don't know." Lu Wanqi blushed and said shyly, "He should know."
"It should be the same again." Xiao Ran shook his head, looking at Lu Wanqi who looked like a young girl in love for the first time, and said helplessly: "I think you are completely hopeless."
“…”
…………
Tang Shuo didn't come back until two hours later. After returning to the hotel, he went back to his room to sleep.
At night, two major events occurred at Hengzhan Hotel.
First, the Jaguar driven by big star Zhang Yulun broke down and rushed out of the hotel's open-air parking lot and crashed into the building across the street, causing serious injuries and coma!
Subsequently, a hotel housekeeping manager overdosed on marijuana and fell to his death from the tenth floor of the hotel.
More than ten minutes later, the incident happened.
Under the cover of night, a convoy consisting of three black Mercedes-Benz cars sped from Suzhou and Hangzhou to Hengzhan like a few meteors streaking through the darkness.
