Chapter 12: Grow a brain!
Du Hexuan knew that the director only dared to speak verbally about his own sister, so he did not blindly step forward to defend her.
The most important thing is that after what happened today, there is no guarantee that someone will not come to Duan Rao for fortune-telling just for fun.
Now with the director's verbal warning, at least his sister's image as a sage and mysterious master has been preserved.
After the director and Yang Jiantao had left, and only Du Hexuan and Du Anrao were left at the scene, Du Anrao finally let out his sigh of relief.
"I was so scared. I felt like Brother Yang couldn't help but hit me just now."
"…get rid of the feeling, he really wants to hit you."
"If he hits me, will you save me?"
"...I will stop him from beating you to death."
Du Anrao's eyes suddenly showed a bit of resentment when he looked at Du Hexuan. We agreed to be each other's angels, but you kicked me out halfway. How can you be so deceiving?
Du Hexuan laughed: "I'm just kidding. Don't worry, Brother Yang is not such a stingy person, and Second Brother will never let anyone hurt you."
"That's more like it. But how do you know I can help others calculate this?" Duan Rao glanced at him suspiciously, "You can't be..."
Du Hexuan almost broke out in a cold sweat. "What nonsense are you thinking? After you came home that day, Mom couldn't wait to tell everyone in our family about your heroic act of helping Yuxi get revenge in the restaurant. Mom described it so vividly that we were all stunned."
"When I heard Brother Yang talking about that just now, I don't know why, but I suddenly remembered this..."
Du Hexuan showed a curious expression when he said this: "Is what you just said true? Is Brother Yang really in danger?"
I have to say that Du Hexuan has won so many Best Actor awards, and his acting skills are impeccable.
Duanrao, who had just fooled Yang Jiantao into a daze, couldn't see any flaws on his face.
[It seems like I was overthinking it. Although it was a coincidence, maybe God couldn't stand it and gave me a push? Never mind. It's a good thing after all.]
After realizing this, Du Anrao stopped worrying about it and once again used the same set of words that he had used to fool Du's mother and the other two before.
"The secrets of heaven cannot be revealed. Everything in the world has a destiny. If you believe, it will happen. If you don't believe, it won't happen. Amitabha, good, good."
Du Hexuan: ...
You sound more like a charlatan. And how come you, a Taoist monk, can chant the Buddha's name so fluently? My head is itchy, I want to grow a brain!
Just as Du Hexuan expected, because of the little incident in the morning, many people looked at Du Anrao with curiosity and eagerness, but because of the director's previous warning, no one dared to come to her for calculations.
But even if we don't mention this, as Du Hexuan's biological sister, Du Anrao is the object of flattery by all the actors and actresses in the crew. In addition, she is good-looking and always smiles and speaks sweetly to anyone who greets her.
The actresses who came with a purpose were so happy that they became familiar with her in a short time and started to feed her like a little sister.
This also meant that on Duanrao's first day on the crew, she did nothing but sit with her feet up under the small umbrella of the tent that the crew had set up for her second brother, eating snacks and fruits, drinking juice and milk tea, and even taking a nap when she was bored and sleepy. She felt so comfortable.
Du Hexuan finished the day's shooting without stopping, and this was the scene he saw. He felt angry and funny at the same time.
Du Hexuan's agent, Zhou Shunzhe, is a handsome uncle in his early thirties. He wears a neat striped suit and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, giving him the air of a gentleman but a villain.
When Du Anrao fell asleep, he was guarding beside him. When he saw Du Hexuan coming, his expression was quite indescribable.
"You asked me to take care of her, but I think she can take care of herself very well. Is this really your biological sister?"
Du Hexuan rolled his eyes at him and said, "We have the same father, the same mother, and the same family. What do you think?"
Zhou Shunzhe sighed, "How can there be such a big difference between the two of us who came out of the same womb? If you were as smart as she was, how many detours could we brothers have avoided?"
Zhou Shunzhe said with a bit of envy: "Your sister really doesn't plan to enter the entertainment industry? Pure and innocent girls like her happen to be rare in the industry. With a little bit of promotion, she will definitely become a big hit. It's good to keep the wealth within the family..."
"Don't bother with her. She's not interested in these things."
"So what is she interested in? Telling people's fortunes?"
Du Hexuan suddenly remembered that Du Anrao had said before that he wanted to go back and inherit the Taoist temple, and his eyelids jumped.
Just at this moment, Duanrao woke up after hearing their voices.
"Brother, have you finished filming?" Duan Rao looked around dazedly and found that most people had left. "Where's Brother Yang?"
"His home is in this city, so it's close by. He has already returned home."
"Oh, then we..."
"He Xuan." Duan Anrao was interrupted by the director who suddenly arrived before he could finish his words.
"Just in time for you to leave. Let me introduce you to the biggest investor in our show, Mr. Xi. Mr. Xi, this is Mr. Du Hexuan Du."
Xi Jingyue, who was following behind the director, finally found an opportunity to get close to Du Anrao. He took the initiative to step forward and hold Du Hexuan's hand. He said that he had admired him for a long time, but his eyes unconsciously looked at Du Anrao twice more.
Xi Jingyue thought he had done a very subtle trick, but Du Hexuan saw it. He immediately stepped forward and completely blocked his sister behind him.
Du Anrao failed to understand his brother's painstaking efforts. He took the initiative to stick his head out from behind him and stared at Xi Jingyue thoughtfully.
[This handsome guy looks familiar, I think I've seen him somewhere. ]
Du Hexuan became more alert after hearing this, but Xi Jingyue was a little disappointed. It had only been a few days and only one of them looked familiar!
"I have long heard of Mr. Du's name. I am hosting tonight. I wonder if I can have the honor of inviting Mr. Du and Director Gao to have a simple meal together?"
Du Hexuan's eyes flickered: "Isn't this inappropriate? I'm just here as a guest star."
The implication is, if you want to find someone to have a meal with, go find the main character of the show. Why would you ask him, a special guest who is only going to make a guest appearance for a few days?
"I came here today because of your reputation. It has nothing to do with the crew."
In other words, he came here today specifically for Du Hexuan, and he didn't even take the new lead in such a low-budget TV series seriously.
Pei Yiyuan, who had rushed over upon learning that the biggest sponsor had visited the crew, happened to hear these words. His handsome face instantly twisted with jealousy, and the look he gave Du Hexuan was filled with hatred.
Du Anrao hid behind Du Hexuan, looking at this and that, his expression becoming more and more serious.
[This President Xi wouldn’t…]
Du Hexuan and the other man suddenly stopped talking and pricked up their ears at the same time, wanting to hear what Du Anrao was thinking of.
[You want to take advantage of my second brother?! Oh my god, are you in the entertainment industry so open about sex? ]
