Chapter 44

At night, Chu Han refused to go back to his room to sleep, saying that he would die with his eyes open. Yu Wen and Xi Su dragged him back to his room. Yu Wen covered his head with a quilt, mumbled something, and let him rest in peace.

The next day, Yu Wen went out for a jog and met the bald uncle again. After running two laps, when they met for the third time, the uncle took the initiative to greet him, "Are you new here? I haven't seen you before."

Yu Wen stopped to talk to him. After chatting for a while, the uncle said, "I think you look very familiar. Are you a star?"

Yu Wen's appearance and personality are naturally pleasing to the elders. As long as he smiled, the uncle's eyes were full of affection when he looked at him.

"He's a little actor. He has no announcements recently and is on vacation."

The uncle said he didn't watch TV much, so he didn't ask what he had filmed. The two of them finished their run and chatted while walking.

The bald uncle said, "Where are your family members? Come to my house for dinner someday. My uncle's chef cooks delicious food. We managed to find him many years ago. He was an apprentice of the chef in the palace. My son learned his skills from him. He can open a shop after learning a little bit..."

"I live with my friends." Yu Wen was a little annoyed by what he said, and pursed his lips to refuse. In fact, you can imagine the cooking skills of the apprentice chef, "I am so embarrassed..."

The bald uncle: "What's the matter, uncle is retired, and I have nothing to do. Our family needs the influence of a great artist like you."

It was the first time that Yu Wen was called a "great artist". He was immediately flattered and a little lost, "Hey uncle, you are exaggerating." Yu Wen, who has always been

invincible with rainbow farts, encountered a "strong enemy" for the first time.

He estimated that this kind of big guy didn't need the flattery of rainbow farts, so he just chatted with him. As expected, high-end social interactions often only require simple handling methods. The uncle was happy when he smiled, and the way he looked at him was like a fisherman looking at his beloved fishing rod.

Before leaving, the two exchanged contact information. The uncle repeatedly told him to bring his friends to his house for dinner when he was not working.

The uncle's house was not far away, just two turns, less than 300 meters away.

After saying goodbye to the young friend he had just met, Xie Jialin walked home humming a little tune.

It was not late today, the sky was dark blue, and there was a dusk-like sunset in the distance. Xie Jialin thought about what to eat in the evening. When he was about ten meters away from the door, he saw the lights on the second floor. A tall figure stood there with his hands in his pockets, waving at him in a neutral tone.

Oh, his mum is back.

Xie Jialin immediately became interested and sprinted home in a 100-meter sprint. This

taciturn boy in his family is very interesting. Although he can't answer a single word out of ten questions, he has a very good temper. Sometimes when Xie Jialin is idle, he likes to come up with some bad ideas to tease him and see his expression of wanting to say something but not being able to say anything. "Hey, my precious son, come downstairs quickly and let daddy see you——"

Xie Heyu came downstairs slowly, and as soon as he got downstairs, he was shocked by Xie Jialin's shiny head, and his expression froze, "...You want to become a monk?"

Xie Jialin didn't think so at first, but seeing Xie Heyu's expression, he said, "Yes, the master said that I have a predestined relationship with Buddha. I will hold the ordination ceremony in a few days. From now on, our father-son relationship in this secular world will no longer count..."

Xie Heyu glanced at him and looked away.

Xie Jialin: "Did you roll your eyes?!"

Xie Heyu said calmly: "No."

Xie Jialin walked up to him and hooked his shoulders, like brothers, "You can roll your eyes if you want to. You are so young, but you are so dull. You need to be cheerful, otherwise you won't be able to find a wife in the future. By the way, I met a boy today, who is about your age. He is so energetic and his smile is like spring flowers blooming. It makes people happy..."

Xie Heyu raised his eyebrows.

Xie Jialin said loudly: "Xiao Xie, you rolled your eyes again!"

Xie Heyu usually lives in the school and is not at home. Recently, during the summer vacation, he followed Xie Jiamao around and rarely came back.

The relationship between the Xie family's father and son is different from that of a normal family. Xie Heyu was raised in a free-range environment. Not only can he take care of himself, he also learned to take care of others early on. Xie Jialin never needs to ask about his well-being, but not asking about his well-being does not mean that he does not care.

"What is Xie Jiamao busy with recently?" At the dinner table, Xie Jialin picked up two steamed big crabs that had just been airlifted in the morning. The snow-white and dense crab meat was piled in the bowl. He pushed it in front of Xie Heyu, "He is very busy. If you can't handle it, just forget about it. At worst, I can hire some company management talents for him."

Xie Heyu tasted the crab meat, which was smooth and sweet. He nodded unconsciously, "What else can he be busy with? It's company matters. We have signed two new artists. We are short of staff and have been expanding the scale recently."

Xie Jialin couldn't help but laugh, "I really didn't expect him to be able to persist for so long this time. It seems that he really found an industry he likes."

Xie Heyu did not comment.

Xie Jiamao is famous for his three-minute popularity. Everyone follows his temper, but in fact no one expects him to achieve anything. Xie Jialin always thinks that he has not found the industry he really likes, but Xie Heyu thinks otherwise.

Xie Jiamao just lives too freely and follows his heart. In fact, every industry he bravely enters is what he likes.

The reason why Star Media has persisted for so long and has not closed down is not because Xie Jiamao suddenly developed perseverance, but because Star Media has Yu Wen.

Xie Jiamao always says that he has to be responsible for Yu Wen, and he is serious.

Now two more have been signed. Xie Heyu estimates that it will be difficult for Star Media, this makeshift team, to disband in the short term.

Auntie asked for leave to go home. After dinner, Xie Heyu stood up to clean up the dishes, but Xie Jialin insisted that he sit down, saying that it was a rare trip for him to go home, so there was no reason for him to work...

Old Xie tried to grab the dishes, but he lost his balance at the kitchen door, and his hands slipped, and the dishes fell to pieces.

"..." Xie Heyu looked at the mess on the floor and said calmly, "Get out."

Old Xie said obediently, "Okay."

He leaned against the kitchen door and watched Xie Heyu busying around, eating fruit after dinner and chatting, "Little Xie, you're not a child anymore, why don't you tell your dad what kind of partner you like?"

Xie Heyu was sweeping up broken porcelain pieces and had no time to pay attention to him, so he said perfunctorily, "Lively."

"Lively? What kind of lively?" Xie Jialin thought of the young friend he met today, "Let me tell you, I met a very sunny kid today. Next time I'll ask him to come to my house for dinner and introduce him to you. I'm sure you two will get along well. His personality just matches yours..."

"No need."

Xie Heyu said lightly.

——He was already looking at a little sun.

Xie Heyu did not stay too long. After dinner, he prepared to go out again.

"You are still working so late?" Xie Jialin asked in surprise.

Xie Heyu said, "I am going to see a friend. He is not far away."

Xie Jialin did not ask any more questions and went upstairs.

When he reached the door, Xie Heyu remembered something and went back to the kitchen.

He found a plastic bag, packed up the few big crabs left in the kitchen and took them away.

When Xie Jialin went downstairs again, ready to steam another one, he saw an empty refrigerator.

"...Where are my crabs?!"

-

At nine o'clock in the evening, Yu Wen and Xi Su were fully armed and ready to practice some methods and arts of processing food into meals.

In short, it is called cooking.

"Shovel." Yu Wen gave the order, and Xi Su immediately took the shovel from the wall and handed it to him respectfully.

"Now let's take the first step of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, pour the oil."

Yu Wen picked up the oil pot, and Chu Han, who was originally standing at the door, suddenly retreated ten meters away. Xi Su didn't understand what he meant, "Why are you running? You are outside the door, and I can't splash you."

Chu Han stood in the middle of the living room and glanced at him, "I am the Exploding Holy Body, what if I get too close and explode?"

"..." Yu

Wen, who was about to pour the oil, couldn't help but pause. Xi Su was silent for a moment and said, "That makes sense."

He was too lazy to correct it again. Anyway, Teacher Chu believed everything. This time he clarified it, and next time he would believe it.

It's better to let him think so.

All three of them were terrible cooks. Today, they wanted to eat some home-cooked food. They studied the recipe for an hour, and then watched the video for half an hour to learn frame by frame. Finally, they chose a rather difficult dish of scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

"I must explain," Yu Wen said, "Scrambled eggs with tomatoes are not difficult. We just can't cook them."

Xi Su urged, "You fry them first. If you don't fry them, the tomatoes will cook by themselves."

Yu Wen said solemnly, "Don't rush me. I'm trying to get the feel."

Xi Su: "..."

At this critical moment, the doorbell rang.

Perhaps there was some kind of spiritual induction in the dark. Yu Wen turned off the fire in a flash, rushed to the door with a spatula, and opened it. The moment he saw Xie Heyu, his whole face lit up.

"Look!" He proudly introduced to his two friends, "I'm getting my feel for it."

Xie Heyu not only saved the three hungry ghosts from danger, but also brought them six fresh big crabs.

"Oh my god." Yu Wen stared at Xie Heyu with bright eyes as he put the big crabs on the pot to steam, and drooled with greed, "Teacher Xie, where did this come from?"

Lanmao stood at the edge of the kitchen with his head poked out, his face almost buried in the steam.

Chu Han leaned against the kitchen door and drooled.

"I think it tastes good, so I brought you a few." Xie Heyu lowered his head and counted, "About ten minutes, it will be ready soon."

Whenever Xie Heyu cooked, Yu Wen liked to stand behind him, tugging at the corner of his clothes. He couldn't help, but he just liked to watch.

Xie Heyu felt a weight on his shoulder.

Yu Wen pressed his face against his shoulder, staring intently at the steam coming out of the pot.

"..."

Life is full of tests.

Xie Heyu glanced and saw Xi Su stretching his neck to smell the aroma of steamed crabs, and reminded him, "Teacher Xi, stay away, you will get burned."

Yu Wen rushed over with a spatula and hit Xi Su right on the right shoulder.

"Blue Hair! Get out! You starving ghost, what if you get burned?!"

Xi Su was really convinced, "When we first met, you called me Teacher Xi, then you called me Xi Su, and now you call me Blue Hair? Can you respect me--"

Yu Wen hit him with another spatula, "Get out!"

Xi Su rolled over angrily.

He was so hungry that he picked up the tomatoes he had just cut to fill his stomach. Before he even left the kitchen, Yu Wen called him, "Xi Su! Give the tomatoes back!"

Xi Su: "..."

You're starving me to death!

Xie Heyu found the available ingredients from their refrigerator and quickly made two meat dishes and one vegetable dish. Paired with giant crabs and fragrant rice, it was already a sumptuous dinner.

He had already eaten, so he left the table to them and sat on the sofa to turn on his computer.

Yu Wen hadn't eaten Xie Heyu's cooking for a long time. He was so moved that tears came out of his eyes, "Wow... Teacher Xie! I love you so much!"

The person on the sofa stiffened slightly, his bony fingers hanging above the keyboard, curled up indescribably.

He didn't look back, but said lightly: "Yeah."

Xi Su: "Our teacher Xie has this skill? Why didn't you say so earlier! If I could eat the meals cooked by teacher Xie every day, I would be willing to be a top star."

Yu Wen: "...Don't make ridiculous wishes."

Chu Han said vaguely: "Teacher Xie is not a nanny..." Yu Wen

remembered that when he was the only artist in the company, Xie Heyu was indeed sent by Xie Jiamao to visit him every day. At that time, teacher Xie cooked for him every few days and brought him carefully selected strawberries.

That was not a life for human beings, it was simply a life for gods.

After dinner, Xi Su, who lost the game of rock-paper-scissors, was kicked to wash the dishes, and Yu Wen and Chu Han leaned on the sofa to digest the food.

Xie Heyu suddenly pushed his elbow gently, "Look at the hot searches."

Yu Wen opened his phone as he was told, and it was indeed the hot search for "Xianmen Anecdotes", but the focus was not on the plot updated tonight, but on the new trailer released by the official.

There is a clip in the trailer, after Pu Yangxi's identity was exposed, he wanted to leave Yunxiao Mountain, and his fellow disciples stood on the mountain road and drew their swords against him one by one.

The first trailer was a happy and happy version, and then there were CP versions and even sadomasochistic versions, but this version was the heaviest.

No matter how light-hearted the plot is, it cannot deny the fact that Pu Yangxi is on the opposite side of everyone, and no matter how happy Yunxiao Mountain is, it cannot cover up the turbulent background.

Some stories are destined to be tragic from the beginning.

Yu Wen remembered that in the scene where Puyangxi went down the mountain, everyone fought with him. Some were ruthless, some showed mercy, and everyone's performance was different.

The director arranged Yu Wen to be the last one in that scene. He was the last obstacle on Puyangxi's way down the mountain.

The director asked him to do his best, saying that Chu Zhiyao had been with Puyangxi for the longest time, and his reaction to deception should be the greatest. There should even be some physical fights. In the end, Chu Zhiyao let the seriously injured Puyangxi go with red eyes.

But Yu Wen felt that the scene was wrong, and changed it after discussing with the director.

Chu Zhiyao would be angry, but his background determined that he would not attack his own people.

Even if the opponent is the demon monarch, a friend recognized by Xiao Jinli is still a friend.

So in that scene, Chu Zhiyao just stood at the mountain gate, staring at Pu Yangxi deeply and disappointedly for a long time.

"I'm lucky, and I've met very good people." He was silent for a long time, smiled softly, and sheathed his sword.

Pu Yangxi held his breath, his lips turned pale, waiting for his next ridicule, sarcasm, or harsh words.

"I still think so now."

Chu Zhiyao made way.

"Let's go."

After a brief moment of stunned, Pu Yangxi's eyes suddenly turned red.
