"Brother, I, Hong Sanshi, am back again!"
Around six o'clock in the afternoon, since several outdoor locations were almost set up, Fang Xiaole got off work early today. As soon as he walked out of Apple TV, he received a call from Hong Sanshi.
"I came here alone this time. I dumped that guy Lao Zhou. Hahahaha!"
Hong Sanshi laughed unscrupulously. Lao Zhou was his agent, the one who always had a blank expression on his face and supervised Hong Sanshi and did not allow him to drink.
"I was just thinking of treating you to a meal, Brother Hong. How about we just go meet up at Changqiao Sannen?"
Fang Xiaole said with a smile.
"Okay, what you said hits the nail on the head. I'm drooling just thinking about Lao Liu's cooking skills. I'll be over right away, hurry up!"
Hong Sanshi was obviously very anxious. When he heard that they were going to eat Sannen, he was almost greedy. Before hanging up the phone, he did not forget to urge Fang Xiaole.
Half an hour later, the two met at Changqiao Sannen, the same simple private room where they had their first meal.
"Lao Liu, stir-fried kidney, stir-fried pork liver, stir-fried tripe strips, crispy fried peanuts, pan-fried spareribs, shredded duck with ginger, and sorghum wine. I want the kind you brew in your hometown. Don't try to fool me with anything else!"
As soon as Hong Sanshi sat down, he shouted to the boss.
"Nonsense, I've let you go for a long time!"
Old Liu replied to him unhappily, smiled and greeted Fang Xiaole, then turned and left.
As soon as the boss left, Hong Sanshi suddenly stared at Fang Xiaole and laughed, with an ambiguous look on his face.
"Brother Hong, what are you laughing at?" Fang Xiaole felt uncomfortable because of his laughter and couldn't help but shrink back.
"Speak!" Hong Sanshi stood up, his hands on the table, and glared down at Fang Xiaole: "What is your relationship with Lin Yao?"
He had wanted to ask this question when he was recording the show last time, but he never had the chance. The raging fire of gossip had been suppressed for so long that he couldn't even sleep if he didn't get the answers this time.
"Lin Yao and I... nothing."
Fang Xiaole's eyes darted around, not daring to look Hong Sanshi in the eye.
"Bah! Don't bluff me. I, your brother, was surrounded by countless flowers in the past, and every leaf got on me. Can you fool me with your little tricks? Tell the truth!"
Hong Sanshi didn't believe it at all.
"We just met when we were filming the show and we're a little familiar with each other. It's normal."
Fang Xiaole tried to get away with it, but in fact he himself was not clear about what his relationship with Lin Yao was now.
friend?
It seems more than that.
That kind of relationship?
It hasn't arrived yet, or rather, that layer of window paper - maybe more than one layer - is still there, and neither of them knows how to break it.
"Tsk!" Hong Sanshi sneered.
At this time, Lao Liu brought up the dishes and wine. After Lao Liu left, Hong Sanshi filled his own cup of sorghum wine, took a sip with relish, smacked his lips, savored it for a moment, and then continued with the other party's little talk:
"I'll tell you the truth. I deliberately created an opportunity for you two to be alone in the car during the recording of the show that day. What do you think? Should you thank me?"
Fang Xiaole's eyes widened: "Did you do that on purpose that day?"
Hong Sanshi nodded complacently, keenly grasping the flaw in Fang Xiaole's words:
"You said you were fine, but now you're exposed! Tell me, what exactly happened in the car that day? Xiaolin was like a different person after he got out!"
"This fried kidney is really good, spicy and numb, big and soft, so delicious."
Fang Xiaole ignored him, picked up a piece of kidney and put it in his mouth, with an intoxicated expression on his face.
"Fuck, you've become a bad guy since you were promoted to deputy chief planner. You've even learned to act dumb!"
Hong Sanshi couldn't do anything to him. His gossip fire was burning more and more, making him feel itchy. He had no choice but to drink a glass of wine, and then poured another glass, picked it up and said to the other party with a smile:
"I haven't even congratulated you on your promotion yet. I told you that you'd be a tough guy sooner or later."
Fang Xiaole knew that Hong Sanshi was well-informed, so he wasn't surprised that he knew about his promotion. He picked up the cup of drink and said sincerely:
"Thank you, Brother Hong. Thanks to your help. I will remember it."
"You're talking nonsense!" Hong Sanshi glared at him. Knowing that Fang Xiaole had a problem with his throat and couldn't drink, he drank it all himself.
Fang Xiaole also drank a drink with him, paused, and said a little embarrassedly:
"Brother Hong, there's actually something I want to ask you."
Hong Sanshi glanced at him sideways: "No wonder you invited me to dinner today, you must have an ulterior motive!"
"No, I wanted to treat you to a meal anyway, and that thing was just a by-product, just a by-product, hehe." Fang Xiaole said with a smile.
"Come on, you're getting more and more slippery, kid." Hong Sanshi poked him a few times with his fingers and said unhappily.
"That..." Fang Xiaole pondered for a moment and whispered:
"Lin Yao was injured during the last recording of the show and hasn't fully recovered yet, so during this episode..."
"Fuck!" Hong Sanshi slammed the table and pointed at Fang Xiaole. "You said there was nothing wrong with you guys, but you've confessed yourself, haven't you?"
Fang Xiaole covered his face helplessly. In fact, he invited Hong Sanshi to dinner today. In addition to expressing his gratitude for his previous help, he also wanted to ask Hong Sanshi to look after Lin Yao on the show.
He now has some understanding of Lin Yao's character. She is gentle on the outside but strong on the inside. When she devotes herself wholeheartedly to her work, she seems a bit like a workaholic.
She is now the biggest star in "Super Challenge" and many people are pointing their fingers at her. What if Lin Yao tries so hard to perform to meet other people's expectations that she ends up hurting herself?
