Chapter 9: The Old Unlucky Guy
After Du Anrao finished muttering to himself, he secretly poked his head out from behind Du Hexuan and looked at Pei Yiyuen curiously for several times.
[The top star’s schedule is very full, but he can still seamlessly connect and step on several boats without being discovered. He is really a master of time management! However, he has no dark circles under his eyes after playing so much. Should we say that young people have good physical fitness? 】
Du Hexuan's eyelids twitched and he thought: No, it could also be because the makeup is too thick.
"I know, I know. I'm a loyal fan of Senior Du. I've seen all of Senior Du's works. I brought several of Senior Du's DVDs with me this time. Can Senior sign them for me later?"
Pei Yiyuan, who had no idea that he was turned upside down as soon as they met, smiled shyly and looked at Du Hexuan with sparkling eyes, as if he was really a little fan who met his idol.
Even Du Hexuan, who claimed to be accustomed to the intrigues in the circle, had to admit that if it weren't for Du Anrao's reminder, he would probably have made the same mistake as the director today.
Who would have thought that such a clean-looking young man who looks like the boy next door is actually such a playful human teddy bear in private!
[She asked for autographs and tried to get close to people so skillfully right away. I'm sure she's said this to many people. As expected of someone who lives in the Vanity Fair world, her acting skills are much better than that of Bai Xiuqing. It's a pity that she's not using her skills properly. She'll fall from grace sooner or later.]
Du Hexuan: ...
No, it’s a good thing that the other party didn’t use his strength in the right way, otherwise he, the front wave, would have been beaten to death on the shore by the back wave.
"No need to be so polite. We'll be in the same crew from now on. Please take care of each other."
Du Hexuan spoke politely but did not respond to the other party's request for an autograph, and his politeness revealed a sense of distance.
Pei Yiyu naturally noticed this as well. A hint of displeasure flashed across his eyes, but he quickly concealed it and turned the topic to Du Anrao.
"Is this lady also a new actor in our crew? I don't think I've seen her before."
[Why are you suddenly coming towards me? Are you targeting me? ]
Du Anrao's target was Pei Yiyuan who wanted to get close to Du Hexuan by talking to him, but Du Hexuan obviously misunderstood. His face darkened and he pulled Du Anrao behind him.
"My sister has nothing to do on vacation recently, so she came to be my assistant for a few days and travel at the same time."
"So she's Senior Du's sister. I'm sorry for being so rude."
At this time, the overly slow director seemed to realize the delicate atmosphere between the few people and hurried to smooth things over.
"Okay, okay, you'll have a lot of scenes together next, so there's plenty of time to chat. Xiao Pei, go get ready first, the next scene is yours, He Xuan, you should also familiarize yourself with the script first."
As soon as the director and Pei Yiyuan left, a middle-aged man with a kind face came up to Du Hexuan and his sister with an enamel cup in his pocket and greeted them in a familiar tone: "I'm here."
Du Hexuan was obviously familiar with the other party, and his expression improved a little: "Brother Yang."
"Young people these days are very cunning, and their methods of climbing up the ladder are not necessarily fair. Don't mind it. You'll only be in this crew for a few days anyway. There's no point in offending the people behind the scenes for such a small matter."
Du Hexuan's eyes flickered slightly. It was as if they said that the older you are, the wiser you are. He relied on his sister's cheating to see the other person's true face. He was probably able to guess the person in front of him almost exactly after just one look.
Seeing that Du Hexuan had listened, Yang Jiantao stopped nagging and changed the subject with a smile: "Is this your biological sister who you have been hiding from everyone? No wonder she is so cute. She is still in school, right? How old is she this year?"
"I'll be eighteen in a little over a month. An An, this is Brother Yang Jiantao, a senior from the same company. I shot my first film with him, and he's always taken good care of me."
Well, the first work was the one that Du Anrao still remembers clearly: the fool. Yang Jiantao played the fool’s father in it.
Du Anrao also remembered after Du Hexuan's reminder.
"Hello, Brother Yang. I've seen your movies. You acted really well. Thank you for taking care of my brother over the years."
When Yang Jiantao heard that Duan Rao was still a minor, his expression became even more amiable: "You are about the same age as my daughter. It is not appropriate to call me brother. I am afraid you should call me uncle."
Du Anrao smiled obediently: "My brother calls you brother, if I call you uncle, wouldn't it be a generation gap? Besides, you look to be in your early thirties, how can you tell that you have a daughter who is almost my age? If I call you uncle, wouldn't that make you sound old?"
Yang Jiantao laughed out loud while holding the cup, and then he teased: "He Xuan, your sister is much sweeter than you."
Du Hexuan and Du Anrao also laughed, but Du Anrao suddenly froze in the middle of his laugh as if he thought of something.
[Wait, Yang Jiantao? That Yang Jiantao?]
Du Hexuan was slightly startled, and suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.
Sure enough, the next second, Duanrao's sudden and loud exclamation rang in my ears.
[The unlucky old man Yang Jiantao, who was stabbed in the back by his wife and brother-in-law, had all his savings taken away and was left with a mountain of debts, and almost ended up living on the streets with his daughter! ]
Du Hexuan:!
"What's wrong? Why do you look so bad? Are you not feeling well?" Yang Jiantao noticed Du Hexuan's abnormality and asked with concern.
"No...it's okay. I got a little wind when I got up early and have a slight headache." Du Hexuan seemed to be talking to Yang Jiantao, but actually his mind was all on Du Anrao.
The article related to Yang Jiantao is about the Jacky Su Shuang in the entertainment industry, in which he is just an unimportant background board.
Because they were filming the same drama with the male lead who had just entered the circle, they had some interactions and exchanged a few words. Unfortunately, before the drama was finished, Yang Jiantao disappeared from the circle because of an accident in his family, and no one could find him.
[Yang Jiantao's wife is Huang Zhaodi, whom he met when he was drifting in Beijing. The two supported each other for several years before they got married and gave birth to a daughter. Unfortunately...]
The purpose of giving a girl such a name is self-evident.
This is indeed the case. Huang Zhaodi was born in an extremely patriarchal family. Not only did she suffer all kinds of unfair treatment since childhood, but she was also brainwashed by her parents to become her younger brother's ATM machine.
Before getting married, she worked like a madman to help her younger brother make money. After getting married, she went even further and brought her husband along to subsidize her younger brother.
This situation became more and more serious after she gave birth to a daughter. Yang Jiantao had thought about stopping it, but it was not something he could stop just because he wanted to.
[Just now Brother Yang said that I am about the same age as his daughter, so his brother-in-law should have already started gambling. Before long, his wife will steal his ID card to guarantee her brother, and then run away with her brother and all the money in the family.]
[Tsk tsk tsk, has the brother-worshiping demon become so terrible these days? For her brother, she gave up her husband and children. Her brother is her biological brother, so aren’t her husband and daughter her biological husband and daughter? This brother might have been her father in his previous life! ]
