Chapter 14 Chapter 14 Like acting like a spoiled child...
After Lou Ye finished filming on the set, he returned to Beijing and spent a week filming the two endorsements that Chen Si had mentioned before.
He has been working non-stop recently and hasn't been back to his rental house for a long time. This time he came back to move.
"Brother Lou, you lived here before?" Geng Zhao walked around the kitchen and living room and sighed repeatedly.
He is a native of Beijing and usually lives at home. His living environment is much better than Lou Ye's.
This is an old and dilapidated residential building. After all, Brother Lou is an artist under the gold medal agent of Tiansheng Media, so how can he have such an environment?
Not only is the room small, but the lighting is also poor. Geng Zhao smelled it and felt that the room had no ventilation and seemed to have a musty smell.
"Well, the price is cheap and the transportation is okay." Lou Ye was wearing a loose black T-shirt and jeans. He looked like a college graduate. He stood by the table and tidied up the messy pile of books.
"You go back and rest. I don't have much stuff, so you can pack it yourself."
Geng Zhao went into the bedroom, found a large black suitcase and dragged it out. "How can this be? Taking care of artists is also part of my job. I have to help you move your things to your new home."
Lou Ye was not a talkative man, and since Geng Zhao said so, there was no reason for him to refuse.
If he were alone, even if the stuff wasn't much, it would probably take him several trips downstairs to move it.
Geng Zhao was packing while muttering that his brother Lou had many books but only a few sets of clothes. They were so rough that he didn't look like an artist at all.
In the entertainment industry he knew, not only the female stars, but even the male stars had special dressing rooms at home, and each one of them was incredibly exquisite from head to toe.
Unlike Lou Ye, who not only has few clothes, but also doesn't use skin care products. The two sets of skin care products in this room are products he endorsed some time ago, otherwise he would definitely not appear here.
It can be seen from this that Lou Ye is a very dedicated spokesperson and he uses the products he endorses.
The two of them worked quickly and all the things were packed into boxes in more than an hour. Lou Ye called the moving company in advance and asked them to come to the house on time.
"It's noon, Xiao Geng, what do you want to eat?" Lou Ye took out his cell phone and checked the time.
Geng Zhao scratched his head, looking a bit silly: "Brother Lou, I can do anything."
Seeing that he was not picky about food, Lou Ye randomly found a home-style restaurant nearby. He had eaten there a few times and the taste was not amazing, but it was okay.
"Sweet and sour pork tenderloin, braised pork with soy sauce, stir-fried shredded potatoes, cucumber and preserved egg soup." Lou Ye pointed at the menu with white words on a red background, then handed it to Geng Zhao.
After the two of them ordered their meals, the waitress blushed as she took the menu and left, but she kept looking back.
Geng Zhao looked up, confused.
While waiting.
Someone came to refill the kettle on the dining table, then brought chopsticks, then brought paper towels...
Geng Zhao: “???”
Lou Ye rinsed the bowl with hot water and said in a calm voice, "Can't you deliver the tableware in your store all at once?"
Another waiter who had not been here before said embarrassedly: "Excuse me, sir, this is a special service for you."
Lou Ye: “…”
Geng Zhao was speechless. He lowered his voice and asked, "Brother Lou, you've never encountered this situation before when you came to eat."
Lou Ye: "I usually order takeout."
Geng Zhao: Okay.
The dishes came, and neither of them was the type to eat slowly, so they finished their lunch quickly.
Lou Ye stood up, scanned the code, paid the bill and went out. Then the moving company called.
After hanging up the phone, he saw a new message pop up on WeChat. He slid his finger to open it, and frowned when he saw the content clearly.
Lou Xi: Brother, you really are my brother. You didn't answer my calls, you didn't reply to my messages. Only a real brother would do such a thing! Why don't you block me permanently and sever our relationship?
[Lou Ye: My parents won’t let me.]
Lou Xi across from him was furious. What he meant was, if his parents agreed, could he really do such a thing?!
She was magnanimous and decided not to argue with a petty man like Lou Ye. The girls in her class were truly blind; every one of them wanted to be her sister-in-law. What good was that even for her?
[Lou Xi: My parents said you were moving to a new house. Have you made a fortune?]
The people from the moving company were loading the luggage into the trunk. Lou Ye gave some instructions on how to place the things and then replied to his sister's message.
Lou Ye: The salary from my last film, and the endorsement fees for two products.
Lou Xi was very surprised, and a series of exclamation marks came over him. Not only was his brother filming a drama, but he also had many endorsements coming to him. His brother was going to be famous!
[Lou Ye: Transfer 3,000 via WeChat.]
The other party accepted it without hesitation and sent a very obscene and servile emoticon jpg.
[Lou Xi: Thank you, boss. I kowtow!]
Lou Ye: ...How come he has such a shameful sister, and she makes such an expression with a face that looks 70% similar to his?
Lou Ye couldn't bear to look at it with disgust, so he exited the chat page, thinking out of sight, out of mind.
The new home is in a residential building that places great emphasis on privacy. The surrounding greenery is quite good and the transportation is very convenient. Of course, the price is not cheap, but he is not so short of money now.
"Brother Lou, let's clean up first and then put the luggage away, shall we?"
Lou Ye looked around and found that the house Geng Zhao found was pretty good. It had one bedroom, a living room, a kitchen, and a bathroom. It was also spacious and more than enough for him to live alone.
When you open the window, you can see the beautiful river view. It is in a bustling area but not noisy.
"It's all fine. It's not that complicated." Lou Ye cleaned up the bedroom first.
Lou Ye worked quickly and without delay, and Geng Zhao was also quite efficient. They didn't bring much luggage, so they packed it all up quickly.
"Brother Lou, your new house doesn't have any pots, pans, or utensils. Do you want me to buy you a set?" Geng Zhao took a look and felt that something was missing. He discovered the problem when he walked into the kitchen.
Lou Ye said casually: "No, I'm very casual when eating alone."
That’s right. His schedule is usually tight. He is either on set or running around for announcements. Brother Lou rarely spends time at home, so it’s really not very useful to buy so many things.
"Okay, Brother Lou, I'll go back first if it's okay." Geng Zhao put on his backpack and took a black garbage bag with him.
"Contact me if anything happens."
Lou Ye: “Yeah.”
After being on the crew for so long, Lou Ye gave him a few days off so that he could take a good rest during this time.
Geng Zhao went out and closed the door.
After a busy afternoon, it was getting dark outside. Lou Ye turned on the lights, and the bright yellow chandelier cast a glow. The floor-to-ceiling windows were open, and he could see the street scene outside, the neon lights and the hustle and bustle of traffic.
He came out of the bathroom after taking a shower, his hair still wet with moisture, and his cell phone on the table in the living room vibrated every once in a while.
How often do you send messages like this?
Lou Ye picked up the phone and it turned out to be his financial sponsor.
[Mingle: Cat Peek jpg]
Mingle: Are you there?
It was a boring opening line that didn't directly state the purpose of looking for him.
Lou Ye scrolled across the screen, his fingers knuckles distinct and his nails neatly manicured. If it were someone else, he would have been too lazy to reply after sending two messages that didn't get to the point.
【Lou Ye: What's the matter? 】
Judging from his reply, Mingle's messages came faster.
【My male god, what are you doing? 】
Lou Ye lowered his eyelids and glanced at the black nightgown he was wearing.
Can he really not refuse to answer such a boring question?
【Lou Ye: You can just call me by my name. 】
Lou Ye changed the subject. Ming Le kept calling him "male god", which made him a little uncomfortable.
Mingle: Okay! Brother Louye~
Lou Ye's heart tightened slightly. He could have just screamed, but why did he deliberately drag out the ending for so long...
Like acting like a spoiled child.
Lou Ye was still in a daze when his phone continued to ring. The other party was calling him via video.
His fingers trembled uncontrollably and he pressed the answer button...
"Hi, my idol! Brother Louye!"
Mingle covered his mouth, having called out the wrong name again. He was startled by the handsome face that suddenly appeared in the video, and his eyes widened and brightened.
Lou Ye coughed a few times and pulled up the collar of his slightly open robe: "...Why did you suddenly think of video chatting?"
He doesn't like this direct way of communicating with people he doesn't know very well.
If the problem can be solved by sending a message, he will not chat by voice, and if the problem can be solved by voice, he will not make a video call.
uneasy.
It seems that this kind of contact requires a closer relationship.
Mingle's cute smiling face filled the entire screen, with the dimples on her cheeks faintly visible, and she didn't know how to find a good angle to look at.
Lou Ye had evil intentions and took screenshots of a few ugly pictures without making a sound.
However, after studying the screenshots several times, he didn't think any of them were ugly.
"I missed you, so I just video-called you." Mainly because I missed his handsome face, I had to look at it to feast my eyes.
Lou Ye's regularly beating heart skipped a beat. These inexplicable words always made him feel confused.
Lou Ye: Is there anything wrong?
Ming Le curled his lips. He was bored after the exams, so he wanted to find Lou Ye.
"Nothing, Brother Louye, did you just take a shower? Your hair doesn't even look dry. Will you catch a cold?"
Lou Ye sat on the sofa and put his cell phone on the table. He raised his hand and twisted his hair, which was a little wet, but he has always been like this. He is in good health and rarely gets sick.
Lou Ye: "I won't catch a cold."
Lou Ye's gaze fell on Ming Le. The weather had turned cold, but the young master was still wearing thin clothes, with his arms and legs exposed, and his skin was so white that it was dazzling.
He should be in the living room, lazily lying on the white leather sofa, and from time to time, the sound of other people's conversations could be heard from his phone.
He wanted to say that Mingle should pay more attention to keeping warm given his physical condition, but the words were on the tip of his tongue and he couldn't say them out loud.
Mingle was taking a picture of his face with his mobile phone. He pulled at the sticking hair on his forehead a few times, but it didn't straighten out, so he pressed it down with his palm.
Lou Ye's mouth corners slightly raised, he found it a bit amusing.
"Lou Ye, let me show you Snowball." Ming Le used his hands and feet to pull the dog, who was as fat as a ball, onto the sofa.
One person and one dog sit side by side.
Lou Ye raised his eyebrows. He was calling him brother just now, but now he is calling him by his name?
He doesn't like pets, especially hairy ones that are difficult to clean.
"Snowball was really naughty today. I didn't let him eat so much, but he wasn't happy, even though he was already so fat."
Ming Le rubbed the dog's head angrily, and the dog licked his palm ingratiatingly.
Lou Ye's gaze fell from Ming Le's face to the dog beside him, and the corner of his mouth twitched: "Why does your dog wear a watch?"
The last time Mingle brought it to the crew, he didn't see the watch on its front paw.
Mingle sat down and tapped twice with his fingers, and a payment QR code appeared.
"There's an imported supermarket near my home that caters to people in this area. Snowball always runs out on his own. Sometimes he goes to the supermarket to eat hot dogs, and the cashier can just scan his code so he can pay for it himself."
"I only gave it a daily payment limit of 500 yuan. Any more than that is gone. It's really gotten too fat."
Lou Ye: ...
Even a dog has to wear a branded watch, and they even give it a payment limit...
Lou Ye looked at his current living environment. It was quite clean and bright, fully furnished, and in a good location.
He subconsciously felt a little fortunate that he moved today, otherwise Mingle would have called him via video and seen where he lived. He would have been sure that he had never seen such living conditions.
He might even feel that he is not as well off as his dog.
“…”
Mingle kept talking about his life at school, what he did at home, and his dog.
Lou Ye rarely had the patience to listen, but it was getting late and he still hadn't read the script.
"Okay. Snowball, let's say goodbye to Brother Lou Ye~" He held the dog's paw, tilted his head and gestured to Lou Ye with a smile.
