However, the outcome was still within Xia Yi's expectations.
As the saying goes, the more arrogant you are, the louder the slap in the face you'll get.
Zhou Hao led two games in Xiayi, and Xiayi both of those games were about shifting blame.
"Hehe!" Zhou Hao laughed awkwardly.
It's not that Xia Yi can't lead, it's that Zhou Hao simply doesn't have the skills.
That's good now, nothing can compare.
Is this what they call overdoing it with his bragging? Zhou Hao sat in his chair, looking at the chat interface with a disgusted expression.
His facial expression clearly shifted from sunny to cloudy.
Even if Xia Yi were to retaliate against him at this point, what could he possibly say in return?
This is absolutely devastating!
Similarly, Xia Yi turned her head and looked at Zhou Hao with an expressionless face.
No matter how I look at it, I feel uneasy.
Finally, Zhou Hao sighed: "It's not that we're not good enough, it's that the other side is too good."
Xia Yi remained expressionless: "A dish is a dish."
At this moment, Li Dongyang, who was sitting in the living room writing an outline, stretched.
As before, writing the script was a breeze; I had already completed a five-day outline in just three days.
The next two days will only require organizing my thoughts and making some minor revisions.
"Food? Where is the food?"
"I'm a true master, okay!"
"The opponent is too strong."
"Come on, let's play another round. I guarantee I'll beat them to a pulp."
Xia Yi: "You can play by yourself, I can't afford to get hurt. I'm waiting for my brother-in-law."
He was looked down upon; he was looked down upon by a newbie?
"I'm going out for a smoke first, then we'll fight another eight hundred rounds later."
Zhou Hao opened the study door and came out.
Just then, Li Dongyang looked up and saw Zhou Hao take a cigarette out of the cigarette pack and put it in his mouth.
As the smoke rose and fell, Zhou Hao complained to Li Dongyang.
"Damn, this guy is not cute at all. I was so angry I almost vomited blood."
After saying that, he reached out and handed Li Dongyang a cigarette.
Both of them had a good habit of not smoking at home, so they tacitly went to the balcony.
Zhou Hao lit the lighter and handed it to Li Dongyang, who took a deep drag.
Immediately afterwards, two long white dragons emerged from their nostrils.
They were chatting, and of course they were talking about Xiayi.
"Hey bro, you're something else! Your brother-in-law's got some nerve. Tell me, what's the background of Xia Nuan's family?"
Li Dongyang shook his head; he didn't know.
Xia Nuan didn't say anything, and Li Dongyang didn't ask either.
"I haven't asked about that."
"Hey buddy, are you two dating or not? Have you kissed?"
"We haven't broken through this barrier yet."
"Then when are you going to wait?"
Li Dongyang: "Of course I have to wait until Xia Nuan is free, otherwise I'll just be poking at thin air!"
Zhou Hao nodded; it seemed to make sense.
"Speaking of which, you and Youshuang have been separated for so long, has she still come looking for you?"
Li Dongyang nodded: "She came by when I injured my foot before, and bumped into Xia Nuan, but then she slunk away."
"No wonder, I was wondering why you kept contacting me lately to ask about things. I didn't know you had this kind of story behind it."
When Shuang was mentioned, Li Dongyang lay on the balcony and remained silent for a long time.
"It's over between us. Don't ask why."
Zhou Hao exhaled a smoke ring and looked at Li Dongyang, raising an eyebrow.
"Tell me honestly, did she cheat on you?"
“I heard from a classmate that she got a script for the female lead. In this industry, if you don’t have connections or backing, there’s nothing you can do to get good resources except your body.”
Zhou Hao took another drag of his cigarette.
He slowly vomited it out.
"To be honest, I feel sorry for You Shuang. You have such great potential, but you insist on going into acting. The entertainment industry is a big dye vat. If you don't have self-control, you will do something that you will regret for the rest of your life."
"Given how good you are to her, I believe you would take good care of her even if she didn't go out to work, right?"
Zhou Hao was right. Li Dongyang loved You Shuang to the core. Hearing that she had an abortion, he was on the verge of a breakdown.
If Shuang were to stay with Li Dongyang, given how much he dotes on her, her future would be very bright.
Maybe I'm just too narrow-minded!
"call!"
Li Dongyang exhaled a long puff of smoke.
"Maybe we're just not meant to be together!"
Zhou Hao didn't say anything.
After all, we're all adults, and breaking up is normal, especially for someone like him.
He's lost count of how many times they've broken up; in his words, he's become numb to it all.
In fact, Zhou Hao also wanted to settle down.
After playing around for so long, all women are pretty much the same.
Now he wants to settle down and find a suitable woman to talk to.
"By the way, I think your childhood friend is pretty good."
Are you talking about the sugar-filled one?
"Let me tell you, she just broke up with that jerk. You'd better not even think about getting involved with him."
Zhou Hao didn't say anything, he just quietly smoked his cigarette.
Behind every "player" (or "playboy") is a woman who made him a player.
"I'm not going to say anything more. I thought you understood me."
"Is the manuscript finished? Shall we go back and play a round?"
Zhou Hao was the first to stub out his cigarette and return to the living room.
Xia Yi sat on the sofa eating local specialties sent from Li Dongyang's hometown.
She finished a whole bag in just a short while; her ability to eat snacks is comparable to Xia Nuan's.
"Brother Dongyang, where did you buy this snack? It's so delicious! I'll bring some back with me when I go back. My classmates will definitely love it too."
