When the aroma wafted from the kitchen, everyone stood up.
After all the hard work, they were already hungry. Now, smelling the delicious aroma of the food, their stomachs really started to growl.
Wen Yuan and Chu Tianjiao are both bold chefs. With plenty of oil, every dish exudes the aroma of fat.
Although their reason tells them that every bite they take may make all their previous fitness efforts go to waste.
But how many people can remain rational when faced with delicious food?
With every bite, Zhou Yiyang could show an expression of enjoyment.
A large group of people gathered around the table, and the photographer and assistant became our dining companions.
"Where are the other two guests?" Wen Yuan looked outside the house. It was already dark, and some people had not arrived yet.
"It should be here soon." Zhou Yiyang took out his cell phone and checked the time.
When the last two guests arrived, all the food had been eaten up by their group.
Fortunately, they had dinner at the airport after getting off the plane, otherwise, if they were asked to cook a new meal, none of those people sitting there would be willing to do so.
Ma Jianning is a mid-career actor. In his youth, he was a favorite of literary directors. However, to make quick money, he transitioned to acting in TV series. Now, he wants to return to the film industry, but no directors want him.
Zhou Yiyang chose him for two reasons. One was that he was well-known and the announcement fee was not high.
Another reason was that Ma Jianning had once declared on a variety show that he did not do any work at home, so Zhou Yiyang needed him to be the highlight of the show.
"Sister Wen!" Ma Jianning looked nonchalant, exuding the lazy aura of a dandy boy.
At first glance, it doesn't fit in with the temperament of this show.
Wen Yuan raised an eyebrow, quite surprised by Ma Jianning's arrival: "Jianning, can you do it? Tianjiao and I won't keep idle people."
Ma Jianning and Wen Yuan are quite familiar with each other, that's why they talk like that.
"Hey, with you here, Sister Wen, how dare I sit idle?" He glanced around and locked his gaze on Yue Shao: "Tomorrow I will work with these four beauties to handle the logistics and help you!"
The last guest was called Xiao Li. When he arrived, everyone was stunned.
Perhaps except Zhou Yiyang, no one here knows him.
Zhou Yiyang didn't know him at first, but he was introduced by Zhang Yingyuan.
"A newcomer, a complete blank slate, unsigned!" Zhang Yingyuan introduced him over the phone. "I spotted him while eating noodles on the street. Yes, his family owns a noodle shop. I've already booked him to star in 'Yi Yi'."
Although he is just a supporting role, he must have something outstanding to be noticed by Zhang Yingyuan.
When he saw the real person, Zhou Yiyang was confused.
She has an ordinary appearance and is not a standout in the entertainment industry. If you don't know her, you might think she is a town dweller who got lost!
"Hello, Mr. Zhou!" Xiao Li was very nervous. Although he had more or less seen these people on TV, he still subconsciously walked towards Zhou Yiyang.
"Xiao Li, right? Relax, can you do the work?"
He shook his head, then nodded: "I don't know how to farm or kill chickens. But I can make all kinds of pastries."
By the way, his family runs a noodle shop.
"Sister Wen, if you want noodles, just look for Xiao Xiao. It's getting late, everyone should go to bed. I've already booked a room for the staff in town..."
After everything was arranged, the bustling yard gradually quieted down.
However, Zhou Yiyang did not forget the agreement he made with Wang Xingrui.
"Brother Yang." Wang Xingrui knocked on the door and walked in in her pajamas.
"Please sit down," Zhou Yiyang handed her a chair. "You don't have to be so formal here. Just say whatever you want to say."
Wang Xingrui hummed, "Brother Yang, I accidentally overheard a secret. If I tell you, would that count as snitching?"
"That's a little hard to tell," Zhou Yiyang said, becoming interested. What secret had been bothering Wang Xingrui for so long? "But if you feel that not sharing this secret might harm someone you know, then I think you can tell it."
Wang Xingrui took a deep breath. At this moment, the screen of Zhou Yiyang's mobile phone lit up, and an advertisement was pushed:
"The world will give in because of your courage!"
Well, Wang Xingrui was inspired by this advertisement.
"Brother Yang, this is what happened..."
Under the flickering lights, Zhou Yiyang frowned.
He had guessed many possibilities, but he never expected that the truth would be like this.
"Lan Xia is gone? Helian Bei needs medication to control his emotions, so he's most likely suffering from a mental illness." Zhou Yiyang's analysis was accurate: "His last sentence suggests that Lan Xia had the same illness before."
Wang Xingrui hummed. She had figured it all out over the past few days, but she hadn't expected Zhou Yiyang to understand it so quickly.
"In today's fast-paced society, relationships between people are becoming increasingly cold. Many people experience similar symptoms, and it's no longer surprising. However, according to your account, Helian Bei's condition seems to have worsened."
"Yeah," Wang Xingrui naturally sided with Helian Bei. "But his agent still forced him to perform. How inhumane."
"Given Helian Bei's status and his relationship with Jiang Ying, agreeing to perform should have been Helian Bei's own initiative. However, he didn't expect his mood to suddenly change. Of course, there are many doubts about Lan Xia. How much do you know about her?"
"Not much," Wang Xingrui admitted. "I only learned about her when 'Prague Square' nearly broke the record last time. She's really strange. She obviously had a bright future, but she suddenly disappeared. But I didn't expect that she would be... gone."
