Chapter 89: What exactly is this “contract”?
"I see."
Song Lehan nodded with satisfaction, feeling deeply moved.
Just at this moment, the takeaway arrived.
Xu Jiangcuo went to get it while Song Lehan cleaned up the table.
The two of them squeezed onto the narrow wooden table, their arms pressed together, as if they were back in college.
Back then, they would book a room and stay there all day, grabbing takeout when hungry and continuing to cuddle in bed when full.
Relaxed and happy.
"Do you want to take a shower first?"
After dinner, Song Lehan noticed the fatigue on Xu Jiangcuo's face and wanted him to take a nap and rest.
"Then sleep here for a while. I might go filming in the afternoon. You just wait here for me to come back."
Song Lehan arranged everything for him, then turned around and found a fairly large short-sleeved shirt and shorts from the suitcase. He held them up and gestured at Xu Jiangcuo twice, "Why don't you just put on these two for now, and use my towel. I'll take you out to do some shopping tonight."
Xu Jiangcuo felt embarrassed seeing her busying around.
It felt as if they had never broken up and had never said those embarrassing words.
"LeLe..."
Xu Jiangcuo called her in a low voice, but was interrupted by a ringing phone.
Song Lehan picked up the phone and the caller ID showed Jiang Yue.
If Jiang Yue knew that she and Xu Jiangcuo were together again, I'm afraid there would be trouble again.
After thinking about it, Song Lehan made an excuse and went to the bathroom to answer the phone.
"Where are you? Why didn't you come to the filming?" Jiang Yue asked. There was noise coming from the receiver, so he should be with the crew.
Song Lehan snorted coldly, "Do you know that my role has been changed?"
"Changed to what?" Jiang Yue seemed to have no idea, and suddenly raised his voice, "Who changed it for you?"
Song Lehan: "Isn't this your instruction?"
What are you pretending for!
Sure enough, a burst of "Hahahaha" laughter came from the other end of the phone.
Song Lehan rolled his eyes at the air, "Jiang Yue, there's still one year left."
The contract is over.
This also means that she can break free from Jiang Yue's control.
I don’t know if I can really get rid of her, but at least she has the right to make her own choice.
"What do you mean by one year?" Jiang Yue pretended not to understand. "What are you going to do in one year?"
Song Lehan didn't want to say anything final, so he lowered his eyes and tapped the sink with his fingers.
"Jiang Yue, no one can compare to you in terms of your status and position. If you behave well and keep your heart, Ye Shuqing will like you."
The person on the other side ignored her sincere advice.
"You need me to tell you? I know I'm very powerful." Jiang Yue boasted, "Ye Shuqing will be mine sooner or later, whether she likes it or not, she is mine."
Song Lehan smiled and said nothing more.
There was a clear female voice on the other end of the receiver.
"Jiang Yue, who are you talking to on the phone?" Ye Shuqing seemed a little dissatisfied with Jiang Yue's behavior. "What are you talking about? Is it about me?"
Jiang Yue changed his tone and became gentle and doting, "No, it's a business matter, it will be done soon."
"Okay, hurry up, I'm still waiting for you to take a picture for me!"
"What are you taking pictures of? Didn't you take a picture just now?"
"The photo you took just now wasn't good at all, look..."
Song Lehan was not interested in listening to the two of them nagging each other, so he put down the phone and hung up.
She looked up at herself in the mirror and felt so strange.
Is this still Song Lehan?
There was no smile on his face, only sadness in his eyes, and the little vitality he had was almost gone.
Song Lehan.
Lele.
Her parents gave her this name because they hoped she would be happy and have no worries.
But now, Lele is no longer happy.
"Lele?"
Xu Jiangcuo's voice came from outside the door, followed by two knocks on the door.
"Lele, are you still on the phone?"
Song Lehan responded, "Okay, I'm ready, I'll be right out."
The door was opened, revealing Xu Jiangcuo's anxious face.
"you......"
Before she could say anything, Xu Jiangcuo kicked the person out.
"I need to go to the bathroom, I'm dying."
The door was closed and Song Lehan smiled helplessly.
In the bathroom, Xu Jiangcuo sat on the toilet with a serious expression.
Jiang Yue...
It turns out that he likes Ye Shuqing.
What was the contract for that year?
Xu Jiangcuo clenched his hands and thought about it, and there was only one possibility.
Lele signed a contract with Jiang Yue, so she gave up her ideals, stepped into the entertainment industry, and endured years of criticism.
So, what kind of deal did they make?
Could it be that...
Is it because of myself?
Xu Jiangcuo didn't dare to think further. What if this was really the case? Then, was Lele, who was being so nice to him now, also pretending?
Shaking his head, Xu Jiangcuo stood up and pressed the flush button.
Whether it was true or false, he would never let Song Lehan leave him again.
night.
Song Lehan covered himself and Xu Jiangcuo tightly to make sure that no one would recognize them before going out.
"Did you sleep the whole afternoon?" When Song Lehan returned to the hotel, Xu Jiangcuo was still asleep. "Will you be unable to sleep tonight?"
Xu Jiangcuo stared at her and shook his head, "I had just fallen asleep when you came back."
His voice was still a little hoarse, but his mind was unusually clear.
Xu Jiangcuo really didn't sleep for long. Ever since Song Lehan left, all he could think about was the "contract" between her and Jiang Yue.
The more I think about it, the harder it is to sleep.
Xu Jiangcuo looked at Song Lehan's happy expression and always felt that what he was thinking was unnecessary.
Perhaps, the "contract" is an ordinary contract signed between the company and the artist.
"Come on, try this one on and match it with this one."
Song Lehan picked out several sets of clothes for Xu Jiangcuo to try on, while he sat on the sofa, leisurely waiting for Xu Jiangcuo to come out.
"Hey! Come here and pick out some clothes for me."
A familiar voice came from behind.
Song Lehan turned his head suddenly and saw Jiang Yue and Ye Shuqing at a glance.
Why are they here?
How could it be such a coincidence!!!
Song Lehan jumped up and immediately rushed to Xu Jiangcuo's fitting room, his heart pounding.
In the fitting room, Xu Jiangcuo had just taken off his shirt when he saw Song Lehan suddenly rushing in. He panicked and used his clothes to cover his upper body.
The two looked at each other, feeling inexplicably awkward.
"Um...I saw some paparazzi nearby." Song Lehan lied without blushing.
Xu Jiangcuo came back to his senses and put on his shirt naturally, "Well, let's hide here."
Song Lehan nodded and said "hmm".
Then, I took a look at the suit he was wearing, which was pretty good.
He looks a bit like him in college, full of youthfulness.
"What on earth do you want to buy? You can choose whatever you want in the store, but you have to come to this small store." Ye Shuqing's complaint suddenly came, startling Song Lehan so much that he held his breath.
Outside, Jiang Yue looked around, as if looking for something.
