Chapter 33 Chapter 33 The past that was deliberately concealed.

Tong Zhile took off her headphones and handed the phone to her brother: "Mom wants to talk to you."

Yesterday, her brother said that she owed him. She had accumulated so many grievances in the past, and that was his way of venting. Tong Zhile did not refute it, because the past was already too old to explain, and also because, in front of the camera, she did not want to mention her mother and her current family.

When she was young, her mother took her away from her original home. Not long after they divorced, Tong Zhile changed schools and lived with her grandparents. The old people were very traditional. They complained and worried from morning till night. They were angry that the daughter chose the wrong person, and they were worried about how they would go on in the future. After that, her grandparents asked someone to introduce her, and her mother took her to blind dates non-stop. Blind dates became a task. Twenty years ago, it seemed that her mother had no choice. In order to make a living, she had to jump from one fire pit to another.

Tong Zhile moved again, this time she moved to her stepfather's house. Fortunately, her stepfather was different from her biological father. He would not foolishly choose to let his wife obey unconditionally when the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law problems broke out at home, nor would he get drunk and turn from pushing and scolding to malicious violence... However, reorganizing a family is also not easy. In the true sense of the union of two families, someone must be tolerant and give in. At that time, Tong Zhile was still young. When she was bullied by her half-brother, she was always like a little firecracker, and she would be ignited at the slightest touch. This is how she developed her character of never being bullied. Many years later, when she thought back to those years, she realized that if she could be more sensible, her mother might also be better off.

Many times, Tong Zhile missed his brother but didn't dare to mention it.

He hid the childhood photos of the two siblings in a hard pencil case and would only take them out to look at them when he left home for school.

Days passed one by one, and later, the birth of a half-sister finally brought peace and laughter to the new family.

Mother, stepfather and eldest brother all like this sister very much. She is the bond that unites the whole family. Tong Zhile has no feelings for her and has been accused of being cold-blooded. So even if she has to pretend, she has to pretend to love this sister to the extreme. In the process of growing up, there are many awkward moments, but she can only digest them. Slowly, she has grown into what she is now. She never expected that after growing up, she would reconnect with her brother.

Now, Tong Zhile stands in front of his brother.

She held the phone, hesitated for a moment, and then reminded him quietly.

"Don't be mean to her."

My brother was not ready yet and didn't even know how long he would hesitate.

Tong Zhile directly put the phone into his hand, and after he finished speaking, he used his eyes to remind him. He seemed to think that this was too much of a sign of weakness, so he made a threatening gesture and glared at him.

【Wuwuwuwu, my little sister, she is protecting her mother. 】

[The mother was also helpless. She originally planned to take her brother and sister with her, but her ex-husband's family didn't want to let her go. What could she do?]

[In this whole thing, the mother did nothing wrong. If anyone needs to be scolded, they should scold the invisible father.]

[Sister is good, brother is good, mother is good, father is bad! ]

The girlfriends were really curious about such a big gossip, so they used "pearl milk tea" as a disguise and quietly raised their heads to look over.

Little Zhuzhu has already started playing with other things. Small plates and bowls are lined up, with an even richer spread than at a buffet.

She was concentrating on playing, with her head down and her long, thick eyelashes drooping to block her bright eyes. This added a lot of drama to her little mouth, pretending to taste the food, and she was so busy that she could hardly stop.

Since Sister Fang Fang and Sister Siran were not paying attention, the baby would look around to find Mom and Uncle Jiang.

When her eyes were fixed on him, she stood up and walked away in small steps.

[Look to the left, Qiqi is about to answer the phone, so nervous! ]

[Looking to the right, our little Zhubao seems to be left alone in a fairy tale world, and my heart is about to melt again...]

Tong Zhiqi put the phone to his ear.

After the age of twelve, they had never met or spoken to each other again. But strangely, when he heard her voice, he didn't feel strange at all.

On the other end, I heard my mother's cautious concern.

Her voice was still gentle. I guess she had watched the show before and was afraid that she would accidentally make him angry again. It would be difficult to continue the call.

Tong Zhiqi listened quietly.

In fact, there are many things hidden in his heart that he has always wanted to question. When she was young, she was unable to take him and his sister with her. At that time, Tong Zhiqi never blamed her. But later, when the situation stabilized and their family had three children, why could she have another boy and raise a younger sister, but could not share her love with him?

These questions can only be thought about in the mind. If you ask them out loud, you will seem pretentious.

Unconsciously, Tong Zhiqi recalled more things from his childhood.

His mother took away his younger sister, who was in worse health, and left him at home. He blamed his own body for being too unkind. He had rarely had a headache or fever since he was a child. He wore thin clothes in the winter, as if he didn't believe in evil. Even if it was freezing, he would get sick. When he finally had a fever, Tong Zhiqi was so happy that he begged the teacher at school to call his mother. The head teacher didn't know his mother's number, so he wrapped him in the down jacket he left in the office and couldn't help but tear up.

There were many stupid things like this, and Tong Zhiqi didn't want to recall them anymore.

"Qiqi, are you listening?"

"Zhiqi, did you hear what your mother said——"

Tong Zhiqi hung up the phone.

Not far away, his sister was still standing there, listening attentively to what was happening over here.

Tong Zhiqi acted like nothing had happened, holding his cell phone and making a high-altitude basketball shot.

Tong Zhile was so scared that he covered his head and shouted, "You are sick!"

Tong Zhiqi smiled triumphantly and handed her the phone: "You're not even joking."

[Hahahahaha no man can escape the curse of high-altitude shooting, not even the best! ]

[So what did the mother say to Tong Zhiqi on the phone? He didn't respond at all. ]

[Didn't your eyes even turn red? You can't even focus on your own business. No wonder you look paralyzed when acting and can't give the director the emotions he wants.]

[Wait a minute... When Tong Zhiqi turned around, he seemed to wipe the corner of his eye with his elbow.]

"Are you crying?" Tong Zhile caught up with him.

"You were crying." Tong Zhiqi said, "Just now——"

"You were sweating when you were shooting the basketball just now, weren't you?" my sister joked.

Tong Zhiqi didn't say anything else and walked ahead.

Tong Zhile followed his steps and patted his shoulder: "I saw an outdoor basketball court further inside the resort. Do you want to play a game tonight?"

【Hahahaha fatal temptation! 】

【Qiqi: I can’t refuse it at all! 】

Dingliu stopped, put his hands in his pockets, raised his chin and said proudly: "How can we fight with just the two of us?"

"Call a few more." Tong Zhile looked up and saw the target before he finished speaking.

"Ji Ning, the program team is organizing a basketball game tonight." Tong Zhile gave her a look and asked her to find teammates for herself.

The brother and sister are stronger than each other, and Tong Zhiqi calls for help from General Jiang.

"Go ahead and fight for the honor of the amateur group." Ji Ning patted President Jiang on the shoulder and pushed him out.

Tong Zhile didn't find his teammates, but he was unwilling to give up.

Her eyes were bright, and she was trying to make her presence felt in front of Ji Ning. Although Ji Ning didn't have any athletic ability, she could at least make up the numbers.

"It's just for fun anyway," she said. "You don't have to know how to play basketball. You win if you can throw the ball into the basket."

After a pause, Tong Zhile suddenly realized: "Ji Ning, you are not scared, are you?"

Normally, she would jump up immediately.

But now, this trick still doesn't work.

Ji Ning nodded seriously, not even bothering to refute.

"Sister Lele." Zhuzhu said sincerely, "Can I join?"

Tong Zhiqi laughed out loud: "Is this your teammate?"

The baby has a cute face that no one can refuse.

Tong Zhile rubbed her head and said, "Okay, but you have to practice first and don't fall behind."

The glorious task of teaching little Zhuzhu to play basketball fell on Jiang Cheng again.

Tong Zhile turned around and wanted to complain to Ji Ning that she "didn't help someone in need", but before he opened his mouth, he noticed that the other person's expression was not right.

It's like a balloon has lost air.

In front of the camera, he could still hold on, turning his back and even drooping his head.

…

Ji Ning analyzed the whole incident in a very short time.

At first, Xingzhi's agent probably really wanted to sign her to an agency contract, and releasing the news of the contract was also their marketing strategy. However, as the news spread, someone took advantage of it.

Obviously, it was Fu Mingya who did it.

The first episode was almost halfway through, but Fu Mingya still didn't give up.

The agency should have reached an agreement with her that signing one less artist would not have much impact on them. There was a lot of discussion online, and with such high popularity, Xingzhi Entertainment suffered no loss.

At the same time, Xingzhi Entertainment determined that as an amateur, Ji Ning could not make a big deal out of this matter. Ji Ning's so-called background was given by Fu Mingya. Without her family, she is nothing. Netizens are not clear about the whole process of the incident, and there is almost no voice supporting her. They expect that she can only swallow this dumb loss.

As for Fu Mingya, she just took this opportunity to teach her disobedient daughter a lesson.

She even thought that she had taken a step back and the show could go on, but the show would eventually end. After this show, who would still recognize an amateur named Ji Ning?

After this incident, Ji Ning was speechless, and her way into the industry was completely blocked.

In fact, until now, Ji Ning still doesn't understand what Fu Mingya's intention is.

The terrible desire for control, just to let her know that she can never escape from control and restraint?

餐廳裏，向星晖已經學會怎麽操作這條咖啡機。

他将杯子遞到丁暮芸面前：“試試我的手藝。”

丁暮芸接過杯子，聞了一下咖啡濃醇的香氣。

向星晖注意到腳步聲，擡頭望去，語氣溫和地邀請：“紀凝，要不要喝咖啡？”

吧臺前，恰好只擺着兩張高腳凳。

紀凝沒有拒絕，坐到了丁暮芸身邊。

【終于同框了！漂亮影後和漂亮素人貼貼。】

【節目錄制到現在，她倆真的很少同框。】

【簽約的事鬧成這樣，紀凝被網友們噴成篩子，我估計丁暮芸更不願意和她接觸了。】

【沒辦法，姐夫一直是個老好人，他邀請紀凝，影後總不能當衆讓他下不來臺階。反正她肯定不會搭理紀凝的，估計最後紀凝自己灰溜溜地走了……】

【影後：你什麽貨色，我什麽臉色。】

然而，徹底出乎網友意料的是，丁暮芸的臉色并不難看。

網友們猜測，嘉賓們也都是5G上網，估計她也聽說了輿論風波，說是明哲保身也好，到了這份上，沒必要落井下石。

“來，小心燙。”向星晖說。

紀凝道謝接過杯子。

“本來還想拉個花的。”向星晖嘆氣，“實在——”

紀凝驚訝道：“你還會拉花嗎？”

“實在沒有這個技術。”向星晖笑了，看一眼自己的妻子，“暮芸會的，以前在組裏，她就像搬家一樣，帶齊裝備。”

向星晖說，當年丁暮芸還沒這麽紅，在組裏的大部分時間，都用來等待。等待時，她就樂意給自己找樂子，帶小音箱、書都很常見，她居然會在劇組拉花。

“那時候，她在劇組很受歡迎的。其他演員和工作人員，排着隊等咖啡喝，我常說，如果不是因為當了演員，暮芸可以開一間咖啡廳，肯定也受歡迎。”

【影後文藝人設不倒！】

【很多老夫老妻，提起自己的伴侶，都是一副瞧不上的态度，覺得對方能做成什麽事。姐夫真的很不一樣，他是打心眼裏欣賞姐姐的。】

“用現在的話來說，就是儀式感。”向星晖繼續道。

“我哪有這麽厲害。”丁暮芸眼底也染了笑意，“這麽多年，說學了拉花，但只會拉一朵雲彩，換不出新花樣。”

“雲彩？”紀凝怔了一下。

她依稀記得，在回憶裏，有這樣一閃而過的片段。

PD見網友們感興趣，便請影後來露一手。

丁暮芸也來了興致。

紀凝面前的咖啡，還沒喝過，便被借去拉花。

影後平時做事總是一板一眼，每一個步驟，都很優雅。

“真的是一朵雲啊。”PD說。

“她的名字。”向星晖笑着解釋，“本來叫雲朵，公司覺得這名字的運勢不太好，後來才改成現在的名字。”

“雲朵姐姐。”紀凝擡眼，語氣有些遲疑。

【哇，第一次聽說，原來丁暮芸是藝名！】

【這些影視公司都很迷信的，藝名會特地找大師算，說來也很奇怪，有些演員改了名，就真的火了。】

【雲朵姐姐？真是能套近乎啊。】

“想起來了？”丁暮芸将咖啡遞到紀凝面前，語氣不再冷淡，“剛入行的時候，我叫丁雲朵。”

在場的人，都有些懵。

向星晖便溫聲向大家解釋。

當年的童星紀凝，确實和丁暮芸合作過，那會兒，影後還不是影後，丁暮芸的名字，叫丁雲朵。

小元寶那部劇，劇情以尋找親人為主線展開，丁雲朵演的是她姐姐。直到最後，小元寶才找到姐姐，不過導演總認為作為故事的結局，這樣過于圓滿，反倒顯得不夠自然，于是最後，這一段戲份并沒有被保留下來。

【！！！丁雲朵，這個名字太可愛了。】

【她們居然合作過！完全沒想到。】

【那會兒丁暮芸應該還不到二十歲吧，是剛出道的時候。】

【沒想到影後也試過被“一剪沒”啊。】

【為什麽以前合作過，再見面的時候，影後和紀凝之間反倒比其他嘉賓之間的互動更生疏？這不科學啊。】

【還好吧，丁暮芸的性格本來就比較慢熱，剛才她和紀凝說話的時候，還挺溫柔的。】

“我記得。”紀凝說，“你說，等下一部戲再見面，要給我帶糖果的。”

那會兒，丁暮芸還是個新人。在劇組裏，她有些局促，很多時候，喜歡和純真可愛的小童星待在一起。認真琢磨的角色，最後卻用不上，她非常難過，當着其他人的面，裝作若無其事，卻一不小心，在小童星面前哭鼻子。

小紀凝很貼心，口袋裏沒有紙巾，就用小手給她擦眼淚。這些細節，現在的紀凝恐怕早就已經忘記，但丁暮芸還記得。

後來的戲，就是那一部《追今朝》。

丁暮芸答應給小紀凝帶糖果，但是後來，發生了太多事。

使得她對一個小孩子，心生嫌隙。

小紀凝退出劇組，當時的丁雲朵同樣如此。

再之後，丁雲朵改名為丁暮芸，與過去道別。

紀凝終于認出了她。

當時自己被父母要求辭演的那部劇，在劇組裏，到底發生過什麽？

“暮芸姐。”紀凝真誠道，“可以談一談嗎？”

丁暮芸往外看了一眼：“去那邊吧。”

很顯然，丁暮芸是想避開鏡頭。

網友們急得都要抓心撓肺，在彈幕區裏威逼利誘放狠話，讓節目組切鏡頭。

只可惜，她們的身影，仍舊漸行漸遠。

“你真的是雲朵姐姐啊……”紀凝仍舊很吃驚。

“這個名字，實在是久違了。”丁暮芸的語氣淡淡的，“總讓我覺得，我還很年輕。”

“本來就很年輕。”

丁暮芸的神色頓了一下。

嘴角微微牽動。

……

三歲半的竹竹小朋友，有了煩惱。

媽媽不高興了。

竹竹的兩只小手背在身後，江乘的兩只大手，也背在身後。

就像是雲碧度假村的兩個巡邏員，到處溜達。

小團子說，他們得想一些法子，哄媽媽開心。

聰明寶寶一開始是想出了辦法的，上回進廠，她拿到薪水，本來就要給媽媽選禮物。

“這附近連雜貨鋪都沒有。”江乘說，“有錢也沒有地方花。”

一個方案被駁回，竹竹又想到新的方案。

度假村裏有花花草草，漂亮小花是不能摘下來的，不過可以等它落在地上，到時候他倆一起撿，撿一捧花，送給媽媽。

江乘覺得不合适：“這是老把戲了。”

昨晚，紀凝說，貧窮女大勤工儉學什麽的，太不時髦，就只有老古董才愛。

同理，節目錄制沒幾天，他送過花，竹竹也撿了一堆的花……估計，也不時髦了。

【哈哈哈哈哈哈！】

【江總冷漠臉：老梗了。】

【凝凝：你還懂什麽是老梗！】

竹竹的意見又被駁回一次。

連小嘴巴都在表示抗議，能挂一只油瓶。

小團子獨自在前面走。

江乘在後面跟。

竹竹飛快往前沖時氣呼呼的，他就是一伸手，都能馬上夠着小人兒。

但江乘還是在後面追，寶寶三步并作兩步，他就一步變成五步，慢吞吞跟着，還要讓她慢點兒走。

“小紀老師。”江乘說，“等等我。”

竹竹停下腳步，回頭強調：“是小紀師傅哦！”

【啊啊啊我們小竹寶會抗議了啊！】

【嗚嗚嗚嗚嗚為什麽莫名有點感動？】

【雖然平時一直玩梗，但其實江總給人的感覺還是挺有距離感的，平時其他嘉賓都不敢亂開他的玩笑。只有小竹寶在江總面前，是他的小紀師傅啊！】

【補充，還有小竹寶的媽媽啦。】

【一天師徒，一生師徒！】

【所以到底誰是師傅，誰是徒弟，這個問題對我來說很重要！】

【江總在這檔節目裏的主線任務，就是哄小孩兒嗎？】

竹竹小朋友還沒想到新主意，就被節目組的大喇叭喊回去。

很迫切，寶寶是跑着去的，沒跑幾步，回頭等江叔叔時，見他長腿一邁，超過自己。

小團子呆呆臉。

他走這麽快的！

現在回集合的地方，太遠太遠了，竹竹伸出短短的小胳膊。

江乘：“抱過去？”

小團子點點頭：“好的！”

……

集合時，竹竹小朋友見到紀凝。

寶寶是媽媽的小尾巴，也是媽媽最好的朋友，她一下子就看出來，媽媽沒有這麽不高興了。

【凝凝：滿血複活.gif】

【發生了什麽？和丁暮芸聊完後，凝凝又是戰鬥力滿滿的狀态！】

【是紀凝自己請的水軍嗎？別在這裏刷彩虹屁了，先讓紀凝解釋為什麽要蹭星芝娛樂的熱度吧。】

【啊啊啊吃瓜最前線！剛才星芝娛樂回應了，說無意卷入紛争，但确實從沒有與紀凝合作的意願。】

【昨天晚上吃到瓜的時候，完全沒想到紀凝會被啪啪啪打臉啊。】

【炒作的威力，紀凝漲的粉絲量真不少。這就是傳說中的，黑紅也是紅嗎？】

星芝娛樂的回應，使得更多網友，湧入紀凝的個人微博。

距離節目最佳大片的投票評選截止，只剩下最後一個小時。

素人組的票數越來越高，向目前名次暫列第一的閨蜜組無限逼近。

嘉賓們的集合地，是一個非常大的休息室。

擺着松軟沙發，投影直接連到官微的主頁面。

起初是簡單的游戲環節。

游戲過程，每一位嘉賓都全身心投入，潘思然失笑，說這不應該稱為游戲環節，說是拉票環節還差不多。

游戲進行了很長時間。

竹竹是最捧場的一個，尤其在聽“擊鼓傳花”的游戲規則時，其他嘉賓都快要因這無聊的游戲而打瞌睡，只有寶寶眼睛亮亮的，時刻待命，做好充分準備。

投影幕布上，評論區底下的留言，仍在滾動。

官微評論區底下，充斥着不理智的質疑聲。

紀凝面不改色。

大多數的字，竹竹都不認識，只能看圖片。每一張大片掠過，嘉賓們都會問好不好看，小團子給的情緒價值滿滿當當，不僅會誇誇，還會從細節上誇誇。

江乘擡眸時，目光掃過那些不友善的聲音。

他側身，将紀凝的視線擋住。

但這一刻，紀凝的反應，是網友們最希望看見的。

可以說在線數據裏，很大一部分，都由她撐了起來。

鏡頭重新在紀凝臉上定格。

【有野心又挑釁的眼神，真的絕了……】

【點進來是想罵人的，一不小心被美到。】

【忍不住投了一票。】

【笑死，我也不想投的，但是隔着屏幕，紀凝直勾勾盯着我看耶。】

【閨蜜組兩家粉絲聯合起來，都比不過路人大盤嗎？短短三個小時，直接反超，紀凝太厲害了。】

【也得虧紀凝簽約不成功，不然誰敢說她不是腥風血雨的小花體質？】

時間一分一秒過去。

中午十二點整，官微投票通道正式關閉。

……

今天是周末，傅明亞沒有去公司。

書房的門，還敞着，她獨自坐在電腦前，看着直播間這一幕。

自從紀凝離開後，家裏冷清了許多。

說來也奇怪，過去二十幾年，她在家的時間并不多，可只有這一次，會讓傅明亞感到不安。

彈幕區裏的罵聲，非常難聽。

但她執意進入娛樂圈，往後會出現更多不可控的輿論聲音。

如她所料，這一次，紀凝毫無回擊之力。

直到投票截止，她收回目光。

可就在這時，傅女士注意到郵件的提醒消息。

彈幕仍在滾動。

【凝粉把紀凝吹得再天花亂墜也沒有用，這次和星芝娛樂鬧得這麽僵，業內誰還敢簽她？】

【連星芝娛樂的熱度都蹭，真以為岚姐是省油的燈？】

【我有朋友在星芝娛樂當實習生，她說這件事沒這麽簡單哦，不信的話，可以繼續看下去，會反轉的。】

手機鈴聲響起，傅明亞接起電話。

是星芝娛樂的岚姐打來的。

“紀凝的委托律師聯系我，他們那邊會公布前一晚收到的意向合同，并以名譽權以及締約過失責任，對我本人和星芝娛樂提起訴訟。”岚姐說，“現在是怎麽回事？事情鬧大了，哪一方都不好看，這事你得負責。”

岚姐開口就是抱怨。

在這一行摸爬滾打幾十年，拿捏這些小明星，對她而言是最簡單不過的事。小明星長得好看，頭腦卻不好使，跌進坑裏都不自知，滾了一身的黑泥，就算為自己辯解發聲，也沒人信，到頭來成了笑話，不需要理會。

岚姐本來是真的想簽下紀凝，但既然亞亭集團找上門，她也不是非要這人不可。

借着輿論發酵，星芝娛樂順水推舟成了受害者，眼看着好幾個小時過去，紀凝除了盯着那沒用的投票不放，沒有任何動作，岚姐便發聲，将自己摘得幹幹淨淨。

誰知道，現在投票結束，紀凝那邊，竟開始澄清。

一個素人而已，能布這一局棋嗎？

紀國亭進書房的時候，傅明亞還拿着手機與岚姐周旋。

最後，她煩躁不已，只說自己先把事情搞事情，就挂了電話。

“怎麽回事？”紀國亭問。

直播間裏，傳來陶導宣布素人組獲勝的消息。

“我們将從素人組評論區的“許願池”裏，挑出點贊最高的“心願”。”

“希望能在節目裏見到曾和紀凝合作過的盧平遠導演。”

“咳，以盧導現在在電影圈的地位，你們這不是為難我嗎？”

【真的可以請到盧導嗎？我不信。】

【二十年前，盧導那條花絮裏說，凝凝現在是小明星，以後就是大明星……後來，又因為紀凝退圈，他發了好大的火，聽後來工作人員爆料，都說盧導雖然脾氣大，但也從來沒有在片場這麽生氣過。】

【節目組真的可以請得動盧導吧？讓盧導和紀凝見面，太抓馬了吧！】

【只有我一個人覺得，紀凝在自己微博轉發投票鏈接，就是沖着許願池這條最高贊的心願去的嗎？大家都說，得罪了星芝娛樂，沒人敢和她簽約，她就賭一把大的，區區一個經紀人，和盧導怎麽比？】

【更抓馬了！】

【盧導怎麽可能會來？我建議，紀凝直接做夢，在夢裏見到盧導還靠譜一點吧。】

傅明亞慌了，手握着鼠标，遲疑片刻。

“到底怎麽回事？”紀國亭走上前。

此時，傅明亞已經點開剛收到的那封郵件。

是紀凝發的。

紀國亭的臉色頓時變得煞白。

郵件裏，是一條陳年新聞。

二十年前，一位名不見經傳的女演員，在家中割腕，結束自己年輕的生命。

劇組對外稱女演員因身體不适辭演，《追今朝》經歷換角風波。

同時，與這位演員熟稔的丁雲朵退出劇組，沒過多久，小童星紀凝也離開娛樂圈。

傅明亞的手，輕輕顫抖。

那些她刻意隐瞞的不堪往事，在這一刻，終于被揭開。

……

星芝娛樂與紀凝簽約的瓜，一遍又一遍反轉。

網友們高呼，讓子彈再飛一會兒，可每當飛出一顆新的子彈，大家又難以淡定。

當江乘的顧問律師主動聯系紀凝，要求她提供授權委托書時，她才知道，他在背後做的一切。

紀凝一個人的力量，從來就不是渺小的。

但時間太短，就算是飯都得一口一口吃，更何況是面對之前并未面對過的大面積攻擊與惡意。

等和顧問律師聯系過後，紀凝收起手機。

這是一場沒有硝煙的戰争，陶導圓滑，不得罪任何一方，在鏡頭前，始終保持中立。但在鏡頭之外，出于電視兒童的童年濾鏡，他願意給紀凝一些意見。

“現在不需要我出謀劃策了，畢竟我也不是什麽專業人士。”陶導說，“後續的處理，交給江總的律師吧。”

紀凝愣了一下：“你怎麽知道？”

第一次，鶴乘集團的主動投資，陶導還以為是自己這匹千裏馬，再次幸運地遇上伯樂。

可第二次、第三次……很難說是偶然。

陶導将之前的那場風波，告知紀凝。

當時，同樣拜傅明亞所賜，她和竹竹差點要離開節目組。

後來不知道為什麽，節目調整，雙人組變成三人，她們留了下來。

“我以為是我和竹竹的節目效果太好了。”紀凝說。

“當然。”陶導被她的直率逗樂，“你們給出的節目效果，也占了很大的比重。”

直播還在繼續，陶導提醒紀凝，先回到鏡頭下。

彈幕區裏，那些充滿着惡意的謾罵，逐漸轉化為善意的聲音。

【所以那些黑子們，現在能出來道歉了嗎？】

【從頭到尾，都是星芝娛樂耍人玩，紀凝是最無辜的吧。】

【心疼凝凝，沒有公司、沒有團隊，自己一個人默默承受了一切，還有本事将輿論逆轉，好樣的！】

【小竹寶和江總可以幫我們粉絲抱一抱凝凝嗎？嗚嗚嗚嗚。】

投票結束後，投影上的官微頁面，變成直播間界面。

小團子被投影屏上的自己吸引。

她張一張小嘴巴，“嗷嗚”一下，就像是一只小老虎。

投影屏上的她，也變成小老虎。

還是軟軟糯糯的老虎寶寶。

竹竹眨巴着眼睛，因新奇，小表情愈發興奮期待。

沙發旁邊的角幾上，放着托盤，裏面有節目組準備好的茶水。

竹竹捧了一杯牛奶，喝一口。

嘴角瞬間長了一圈痕跡，就像是小老虎的胡須。

小團子想要自己長滿老虎寶寶的絡腮胡。

只是溫熱的牛奶對于寶寶來說，有一點燙。

竹竹鼓起腮幫子，對牛奶杯吹吹：“呼，呼！”

身後，傳來紀凝很輕的聲音。

“為什麽幫我？”

只是一起上節目的搭子，節目結束，恐怕不會再見面。

一而再再而三地出手相助，是因為江總很好心嗎？

江乘沉吟：“……”

紀凝疑惑臉。

有什麽是不能說的嗎？

“呼呼！”竹竹心無旁骛吹牛奶，“燙嘴哇！”
