Chapter 13
Zhou Huaichen's attention quickly shifted to the word "my home".
He looked at Ye Weian deeply, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he reached out his hand to support Ye Weian's back lightly, saying, "Come over and sit down."
Ye Weian said "oh" and sat in the two main seats with Zhou Huaichen.
The six people in the private room were staring at Ye Weian.
Zhou Huaichen introduced them to each other.
Ye Weian's gaze first fell on the man and woman.
Zhou Huaichen chuckled softly, pointed at the man, and said, "He's Qi Changbai. The crew for 'Nine Heavens' is still being assembled, and he has three months free. If you think it's feasible, you can let him direct 'The Year the Wind Rises'."
Ye Weian looked at Qi Changbai curiously.
It turned out that this young and handsome man was Qi Changbai. He had previously thought that the other party was a celebrity.
Ye Weian: "Sure, as long as he is willing."
Qi Changbai smiled at him and said, "I'm glad that Mr. Ye doesn't dislike me."
Ye Weian waved his hand: "I don't mind."
He felt he had earned it.
Although Qi Changbai has never made a movie, the quality of the TV series he directed is very good. "The Year the Wind Rises" is not for making money, as long as the quality is up to standard, it just happens to be in line with Qi Changbai.
Qi Changbai glanced at Zhou Huaichen, then smiled meaningfully at Ye Weian and said, "I met Mr. Ye once at the film and television city last time. I wanted to meet Mr. Ye then, but it was a pity that Brother Chen didn't introduce me."
Brother Chen
Ye Weian seemed to be thinking about something.
It seems that Qi Changbai and Zhou Huaichen have a good relationship.
The girl next to her smiled sweetly and said, "Me too. I wanted to meet Mr. Ye last time."
Ye Weian turned to look at her.
She was the woman who followed Zhou Huaichen with Qi Changbai last time.
The girl was very familiar and introduced herself before Zhou Huaichen could: "My name is Zhu Ziyan, and I'm Brother Chen's neighbor."
Before Ye Weian could react, the system screamed: [Zhu Ziyan! The popular movie star who has a crush on Big Boss Zhou!]
Ye Weian tilted his head: "She is not in the book."
System: [You only saw the part where the original owner died. There's actually a plot later. After Big Boss Zhou helped Zhou Yongnan defeat the original owner, Yan Qing married into the Zhou family. Zhu Ziyan always felt that Yan Qing was trying to seduce Big Boss Zhou, so she opposed Yan Qing at every turn, but was ultimately defeated by Yan Qing.]
Ye Weian: “…”
There is such a crop
He thus grasped two pieces of information.
First, Zhu Ziyan has a crush on Zhou Huaichen.
Second, Zhu Ziyan will oppose Yan Qing in the future and will also be a cannon fodder.
Although the enemy of my enemy is my friend, Ye Weian does not want to be friends with Zhu Ziyan.
Ye Weian collected his thoughts and said calmly, "Hello."
——[What's wrong with neighbors? Are they as cute and handsome as me?]
Zhou Huaichen glanced at him and the smile on his lips deepened.
No.
No one is cuter than him.
Zhu Ziyan narrowed her eyes when she saw that Ye Weian was not very enthusiastic.
She suddenly laughed, turned to Zhou Huaichen, and said coquettishly: "Brother Chen, I heard that you are going to start a new play. Am I honored to be the heroine?"
Zhou Huaichen pointed at Qi Changbai and said, "He's the director, ask him."
Qi Changbai continued: "Come and audition when the time comes."
The two of them sang in unison and gently addressed Zhu Ziyan's question.
Zhu Ziyan pouted unhappily.
Zhou Huaichen didn't notice her emotions and continued to introduce the remaining four people to Ye Weian.
After hearing the names of the four people, Ye Weian carefully recalled the plot. These four people were not recorded in the original book, so he thought they would not be obsessed with Yan Qing.
As expected of the big boss’ friend, he could resist Yan Qing’s charm.
The system was worried sick, explaining to him: [These four are childhood friends of Big Boss Zhou. They all come from good families and have outstanding abilities.]
System: [Qi Changbai is younger than Zhou Huaichen. His brother Qi Changsong is Zhou Huaichen's childhood friend. He didn't come today. Zhou Huaichen, out of respect for his elder brother Qi, provided a lot of help to Qi Changbai when he first started filming.]
System: [Zhu Ziyan is also younger than Zhou Huaichen. Her brother Zhu Hongke is Zhou Huaichen's childhood friend. He's the second one on your right.]
Ye Weian looked to the right.
The first person on his right is Zhou Huaichen, and next to Zhou Huaichen is Zhu Hongke.
Zhu Ziyan is a great beauty, and Zhu Hongke is also very good-looking. He wears gold-rimmed glasses and has a very noble temperament.
Zhu Hongke noticed his gaze and smiled at him.
Ye Weian asked the system: "Does Zhu Hongke know that his sister likes Achen?"
System: [It’s not in the book.]
The implication is that it is not clear.
Ye Weian: “.”
Seeing that he kept looking at Zhu Hongke, Zhou Huaichen's eyes darkened and he said, "Hongke is also interested in investing in "Nine Heavens."
Ye Weian said, "Go ahead."
Zhou is in charge of coordinating this project. He only needs to pay for it and is not interested in anything else.
But he was still looking at Zhu Hongke.
Zhou Huaichen's eyes grew darker, and he tapped the table lightly with his fingers, saying, "You are very interested in Hong Ke."
After spending some time with Ye Weian, he already understood Ye Weian's style - if you have any questions, you can ask directly, because Ye Weian doesn't know how to beat around the bush.
Everyone at the table looked at Ye Weian.
Zhu Hongke smiled: "My pleasure."
Ye Weian tilted his head and said bluntly: "Not interested."
Zhu Hongke: “…”
Others: “…”
Zhou Huaichen said softly: "Then why do you keep looking at him?"
Ye Weian: "I want to see if he knows that his sister likes you."
Everyone: “…”
Zhu Ziyan's face suddenly turned red, and she looked at Zhou Huaichen shyly.
It was obvious that the childhood friends knew what Zhu Ziyan was thinking, and their eyes flickered playfully between Zhou Huaichen and Zhu Ziyan.
Zhou Huaichen didn't look at Zhu Ziyan, his eyes were always on Ye Weian, and he said: "You misunderstood, Ziyan doesn't like me, and I don't like her either."
He is directly expressing his attitude.
Zhu Ziyan's blushing face turned pale.
Seeing this, the childhood friends immediately stopped teasing.
The scene fell silent.
Zhu Hongke coughed lightly and came out to smooth things over, "Yes, Achen and I are brothers, and my sister is his sister."
You can tell he's covering up for his sister.
Zhu Ziyan was dissatisfied and opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something.
Zhu Hongke glanced over sternly: "Zi Yan!"
On the one hand, he was protecting his sister's face, and on the other hand, he was respecting the wishes of his childhood friend Zhou Huaichen.
Zhou Huaichen is the most outstanding descendant of the aristocratic family. The Zhu family actually hopes that Zhu Ziyan can marry Zhou Huaichen, but Zhu Hongke knows very well that Zhou Huaichen does not like his sister, so he never mentions this matter in front of Zhou Huaichen.
Now that Ye Weian had pointed it out, Zhu Hongke felt embarrassed, but was also afraid that his sister would say something shocking, so he stopped her.
The system couldn't help but whisper in Ye Weian's ear: [Host, you are too straightforward. Zhu Ziyan is unhappy.]
Ye Weian: ""
He looked at Zhu Ziyan: "You are not happy"
Zhu Ziyan's face was dark, she didn't even look at him, and was obviously angry.
Ye Weian was puzzled: "But liking someone is not something shameful. If you like someone, just pursue them openly."
Zhu Ziyan was stunned.
She fell in love with Zhou Huaichen when she first fell in love, but she was afraid of being rejected by Zhou Huaichen, so she only dared to approach him secretly and did not dare to confess her feelings.
Ye Weian's words were undoubtedly like a huge hammer, hitting her heart.
The others also stared at Ye Weian in amazement.
Only Zhou Huaichen pointed at the table with an unclear expression.
Zhu Ziyan suddenly stared at Ye Weian and said, "I heard that you like Yan Qing and have been pursuing him for several years."
Ye Weian: "Yes."
Ye Weian: "I want to be with him, but unfortunately he doesn't like me."
Everyone: “…”
Zhu Ziyan was also stunned. She didn't expect that he would admit it so readily.
She turned her head and saw Zhou Huaichen staring at Ye Weian, and suddenly she felt a strange feeling in her heart.
...Brother Chen seems to be particularly concerned about Ye Weian
Zhou Huaichen lowered his eyes, hiding all his emotions and not allowing anyone to see.
Zhu Ziyan bit her lip and said to Ye Weian, "But I saw online that you wanted to put Yan Qing on ice... Since you like him, how could you bear to put him on ice?"
"Are you going to destroy that set if you can't get it?"
Ye Weian glanced at her and said, "You want to say I'm a pervert?"
Zhu Ziyan: "..."
Others: “…”
...There's no need to be so blunt.
Ye Weian shrugged: "You don't understand, I'm hiding him as a way to pursue him."
Everyone: “…”
They really don’t understand!
The atmosphere in the private room was a bit gloomy and weird.
Especially Zhou Huaichen, who kept his eyelids drooping, and no one knew what he was thinking.
The childhood friends were very good at observing people's expressions and quickly changed the subject to talk about business, and the topic of love was finally brought up.
Zhu Ziyan's eyes flickered between Zhou Huaichen and Ye Weian, and she suddenly stood up and said, "Sorry, I'm going to the bathroom."
When she came back, she brought someone with her.
She smiled and said, "Look who I invited."
Everyone looked towards the door.
Yan Qing walked out from behind Zhu Ziyan and greeted everyone with a smile.
Zhu Ziyan invited Yan Qing into the private room and said, "I just ran into Yan the big star in the corridor. He said he was here looking for someone. I thought Mr. Ye liked him, so I brought him here."
Yan Qing looked at Ye Weian in surprise.
Ye Weian actually said in front of so many people that he wanted to be with him
He couldn't help feeling a little proud and hummed secretly.
He knew that Ye Weian couldn't let him go, but what Ye Weian had done in the past few days made him particularly disgusted.
If Ye Weian doesn't take the initiative to coax him, he will never forgive Ye Weian!
He blinked, his eyes fell on Zhou Huaichen, and he pretended to be surprised and said, "Mr. Zhou, you are here too."
In fact, he found out Zhou Huaichen's whereabouts and followed him here on purpose.
Zhou Huaichen hummed lightly.
Yan Qing walked to his side and said softly, "Yongnan will be here soon. We agreed to have lunch here. Since you are here, can Yongnan and I come and have a meal together?"
His cheeks were flushed, and it was obvious that he was interested in Zhou Huaichen.
Everyone present was a smart person. Thinking of what Ye Weian had said before that he liked Yan Qing, they couldn't help but look at Ye Weian.
Ye Weian was not angry at all, but watched with great interest.
——[Yan Qing really likes to use Zhou Yongnan as an excuse to get close to Achen.]
——[Zhu Ziyan should have seen through Yan Qing’s intentions.]
——[Is the Shura Field coming? Excited!]
Zhou Huaichen: “…”
Zhu Ziyan did see through Yan Qing's intention, and a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes.
She stared at Yan Qing with a half-smile and said, "I heard that you are dating Brother Chen's nephew. In that case, you are the niece-in-law of all of us."
This is intentionally lowering Yan Qing's generation.
Yan Qing's expression changed.
Zhu Ziyan glanced at Ye Weian again and said with a sigh, "Poor Mr. Ye, he has such a loyal heart."
Ye Weian waved his hand: "I'm used to it."
——[It’s so painful. I don’t like Yan Qing at all, and I have to tell everyone that I’m pursuing him!]
His eyes fell on Zhou Huaichen.
——【Luckily, Achen is sweet. I’m going to eat an extra bowl of rice later to calm my nerves.】
——[Hey, why isn’t dinner ready yet?]
——【I’m not happy. We agreed to come for dinner.】
Zhou Huaichen: “…”
He chuckled softly, interrupting the tension between Zhu Ziyan and Yan Qing, and asked the waiter to serve the food.
After the meal, the people in the private room had different expressions.
Zhou Huaichen kept picking up food for Ye Weian.
Anyone can see that he cares about Ye Weian.
Zhu Ziyan and Yan Qing both had ugly expressions.
When everyone was about to finish eating, Zhou Yongnan rushed over.
As soon as he saw Ye Weian, he glared at him and asked, "Why are you targeting Qingqing online?"
What made him even more angry was that Bai Yuan and Xie Siming could openly support Yan Qing online, but he, as Yan Qing's official boyfriend, could not come forward to defend Yan Qing.
He was very clear about Bai Yuan and Xie Siming's feelings towards Yan Qing, and he felt a strong sense of crisis.
Ye Weian wiped his mouth with a tissue, slowly raised his head to look at him, and said, "If you break up with him and let him be with me, I won't target him."
Zhou Yongnan was furious and complained to Zhou Huaichen aggrievedly: "Uncle, look how arrogant he is."
Yan Qing looked at Zhou Huaichen eagerly: "Boss Zhou, can you help me? Boss Ye has been targeting me. I... I'm so sad..."
His eyes were filled with tears and he looked extremely pitiful.
Zhu Ziyan rolled her eyes.
Her brother scolded in a low voice: "Where are your manners?"
Zhu Ziyan snorted coldly, but managed to maintain the demeanor of a young lady from an aristocratic family.
Zhou Huaichen ignored Zhou Yongnan and Yan Qing, looked up at Ye Weian, and said, "You want them to break up?"
Ye Weian nodded without thinking much.
Zhou Huaichen looked at him deeply and said, "Do you want to know my opinion?"
Ye Weian: “Yeah.”
Zhou Huaichen: "If Yan Qing turns around and gets together with you after they break up, then I hope they will never break up."
The system exclaimed: [Host, Zhou Huaichen must have fallen in love with you! He really is a pig that eats cabbages!]
Ye Weian: ""
The system was still screaming: [There are so many people watching, Zhu Ziyan and Yan Qing are here, and President Zhou is actually confessing his feelings to you in disguise! Oh my god, what a Shura scene! Too exciting!]
System: [No, why am I so excited? Host, you should be with Yan Qing...]
System: […I am guilty. I am going to face the wall.]
The next second, it really disappeared.
Ye Weian: “…”
He looked at Zhou Huaichen in a daze.
——[So in Achen's eyes, I am just a juicy cabbage?]
——[Achen is such a pig!]
Zhou Huaichen: “…”
The author has something to say: Zhou Huaichen: Yes, it’s me.
Thank you very much for your support. I will continue to work hard!
