[Chapter 132: Sour Grapes]

Chapter 132: Sour Grapes

After getting Shen Lubai's contact information, Director Zhang immediately burst into laughter, told Shen Lubai that he would contact him later by phone, and then turned and left.

The one who left even took out his cell phone and called someone, "Hey, Lao Li, I want to tell you that my trip today was not in vain..."

Even after he had walked a long way away, they could still hear his rich laughter. Everyone could see that Director Zhang was in a very good mood.

"Xiaobai, you are so lucky."

Zhang Qi held his shoulders with both hands and shook him excitedly.

“Stop, stop, stop, stop…”

If you shake it any further he'll vomit.

Shen Lubai took a breath, then asked curiously, "Is this director really that famous?"

"Did you know that every movie directed by Zhang has won awards?"

Shen Lubai nodded, "It looks like it's pretty powerful."

However, he has never paid attention to the entertainment industry, so he has no idea about the people and things in this circle.

"Xiao Bai, can I go with you when you start filming?"

Seeing Zhang Qi's tearful eyes, Shen Lubai quickly nodded and said yes.

I really admire this old man.

But it happened that Huo Ting's birthday was almost coming, and he had to use his own money to buy a gift for his brother.

When he returned home in the evening, Shen Lubai told Huo Ting about this and said that he would join the crew to film in two weeks, so he would not be at home for a long time.

But the filming time was not long, only a few months.

A few months!!!

Of course Huo Ting disagreed with anything.

A few more months? He wouldn't agree to that even today.

Huo Ting sat on the sofa, watching the news without any room for discussion.

"Huo Ting..."

Shen Lubai knelt on the sofa, wrapped his arms around his neck, and shook him back and forth desperately.

"Don't say anything more. This matter is not negotiable."

"But I'm studying acting. Sooner or later I'm going to enter the entertainment industry. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of my studies?"

"Besides, I also want to make money through my own efforts. I can't just spend your money with a clear conscience. As a good young person in society—"

"Don't give me these nonsense. If you say you can't go, then you can't go. What's wrong with spending my money? If you don't spend my money, then what's the point of me making money?"

Huo Ting felt that if he continued to talk, he might even bring out the 24-character core values.

Shen Lubai hesitated for a moment. What Huo Ting said seemed to make sense...

No, no, no, we can’t let him lead us astray.

"Then I can't stay at home all my life. If I continue like this, I will be useless and completely out of touch with society."

"It's not that I don't allow you to film, but the place you're going to now is too far away, and you can't go home every day. What should I do if I miss you at night?"

Alas, having a clingy boyfriend is also a sweet trouble.

"It's only been a few months. And when you travel around the country on business, I still stay at home and wait for you to come back.

Do you know what this is called? It's called double standards."

"Uncle Zhang, tell me if what I said is right or not."

Zhang Bo, who had just passed by the door, was immediately caught by Shen Lubai.

He had no idea what was going on, but no matter what, whatever Master Shen said was right.

So he smiled and nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, Master Shen, you are absolutely right."

"Humph, you heard it, even Zhang Bo agrees with me, so the minority obeys the majority, and you can't stop me."

Zhang Bo looked at Huo Ting's eyes, and suddenly realized that he might have said something wrong, and he always felt a chill on his back.

So, feeling the pressure, he quickly made an excuse that he still had work to do and ran away.

Shen Lubai looked at Uncle Zhang's steps and sighed, "Uncle Zhang is so old, but his legs are still so agile. I don't know how he trained himself."

"I don't care. I'm going anyway. If you don't let me go, I'll get angry and cry for you to see."

"You mean to say first cry, then make a scene, then hang yourself?"

"Um."

Shen Lubai nodded vigorously.

"Alright, alright, I'm really scared of you, my little ancestor."

"I knew Huo Ting, you're the best." Shen Lubai hugged Huo Ting and kissed him madly.

Director Zhang had already discussed it with the school, so the day before the filming started, Shen Lubai just had to pack his luggage.

Naturally, everyone in their department knew about it, and they were all extremely jealous.

Su Ziqing sat in his seat. After the last time, he no longer had the arrogant and self-righteous look he had before.

He saw a bunch of people surrounding Shen Lubai and flattering him, with a look of disdain on his face, "He must be a flatterer. Who knows if he got this resource through connections?"

"Su Ziqing, you are just saying the grapes are sour because you can't eat them. Who is Director Zhang? Do you think he never considers the other person's identity or background when selecting people?"

"That's right, you are not jealous of Shen Lubai."

"I heard that you caused your father to be fired by Huo's?"

Su Ziqing was furious.

When had he ever suffered such humiliation? In the past, others always revolved around him.

Ever since he came back to school last time, people in the class have obviously distanced themselves from him. Even the two little followers who usually followed him now surround Shen Lubai like everyone else.

"I'm jealous? What do I have to be jealous of? When I was a kid, I didn't even know where he was when I was filming for the show."

"Where is he? He is in his castle, of course."

"Forget it, ignore people like him."

Another classmate patted the person next to him.

Su Ziqing was so angry at them that he was about to fume out of his wits, but there was nothing he could do about them.

I was so emotional that I almost fainted.

No one else was willing to send him to the infirmary, and finally the two people who had been playing with Su Ziqing carried him to the infirmary reluctantly.

They threw the person at the door of the infirmary, knocked on the door and left.

Normally, the two of them did not follow Su Ziqing to find trouble with Shen Lubai, but fortunately, Shen Lubai did not care every time, otherwise they would both be killed by Su Ziqing.

So now they are not willing to play with Su Ziqing.

It only took Su Ziqing one night to go from being the center of attention to being disliked by everyone.

The day the crew started filming happened to be a Saturday, so Zhang Qi went along as well. Not only did he go by himself, he also took Xu Yi with him.

They bought the tickets themselves, but Shen Lubai found out and asked them to refund the tickets.

In the past, Huo Ting personally sent him there, and the director had booked a hotel early in the morning.

When they get there, they can go directly to the hotel to rest for a while, and the power-on ceremony will be held in the afternoon.
