Chapter 17 Chapter 17 Seventeen is already here, almost eighteen! ...
"Xu Yuan? Isn't he good at filming martial arts?" Liang Xuan asked. "What role are you playing in it?"
"I'll play the leading role. It's about a young boy who has learned martial arts in the mountains with his master since he was a child. In order to avenge his family, he disguises himself as a dancer to assassinate his enemies. He was attracted by my dancing ability and all other aspects of my skills are a good match." In private, when others asked Xia Ji about these things, he felt ashamed, just like when others asked him how many points he got in the exam, he didn't like to say it out loud.
The waiter brought the menu and Liang Xuan handed it to Si Cheng. Si Cheng was still replying to emails and handed it to Xia Ji without even looking at it.
Xia Tian flipped through the menu and saw that the prices were not cheap, definitely prices only the elite and nobles could afford. "So expensive? Who's treating?"
"Me." Liang Xuan raised his hand. He was wearing a pair of rimless glasses, but these glasses were the only thing that made him look elegant.
"Ha, then I'll just order whatever I want!" Xia Ji smiled, as if he had gotten a great bargain.
"Anything you want." Ouyang Xin supported his chin with one hand and said with a smile.
Liang Xuan shook his head. "Little kid. Has your brother ever cheated you?"
Xia Ji quickly ordered the dishes and handed them the menu. Liang Xuan didn't want it and gave it to Ouyang Xin.
After Si Cheng replied to the email, he chatted with them for a while, and then talked to Liang Xuan about some company projects. Xia Ji didn't understand anything and couldn't get a word in, so he waited for dinner with Ouyang Xin.
After a while, the waiter came over and asked if he wanted to order some wine. Xia Ji immediately said yes. Si Cheng was still talking about business with Liang Xuan and just glanced at him expressionlessly.
Taizhou cuisine is mostly seafood, and H City is an inland city, so it is not easy to eat there.
Soon, the dishes came up one after another, and the wine and drinks also came up. The waiter came over to pour them wine. As soon as it was poured, Xia Ji excitedly picked up the small glass and was about to put it to his mouth, but was held down by Si Cheng's hand.
Then, the glass of wine was brought in front of Si Cheng.
Xia Tian was confused: "???"
Si Cheng placed the juice in front of him and said, "Drink this."
Liang Xuan laughed so hard that he slapped his thigh. "Hahaha! How mean! You didn't say a word when someone ordered the wine just now, and now it's right in front of them, and you're not letting them drink it."
"It's okay to drink a little, right? You're seventeen, right?" Ouyang Xin asked.
"I'm already seventeen! I'll be eighteen soon!" Xia Ji shouted.
Si Cheng glanced at him calmly and said in a voice that brooked no argument, "You are not allowed to drink."
Xia Ji puffed up his cheeks, drank a big gulp of juice angrily, and ate vegetables to vent his anger.
While Si Cheng was chatting about business with Liang Xuan in a low voice, he did not forget to pick up some food for Xia Ji.
I have been following the crew for the past few months in the summer and rarely eat out, but now I can eat as much as I want.
He has a bad temper and forgets small things in three seconds. He has been close to Si Cheng since he was a child and he will eat whatever Si Cheng picks for him.
After eating, Xia Ji felt sleepy and rubbed his eyes. We sat in the private room for a while and then went back.
Ouyang Xin and Liang Xuan sent them to the car first. As they watched the car drive away, they sighed, "These two brothers, the elder one seems more mature and experienced than you, who is almost 30 years old, while the younger one is still a completely innocent child with clear eyes."
"Two brothers?" Liang Xuan laughed. "They're only one year apart in age. When have you ever seen an older brother take care of his younger brother like this? This guy treats her like his wife. His possessiveness is so obvious that he has to keep an eye on her while she's eating, doing things, or anything else."
Ouyang Xin recalled the way he had seen the two of them before and snorted, "Really? When did this kid start doing this?"
"Who knows? Si Cheng is very goal-oriented and he won't do anything useless." Liang Xuan said.
"That's obvious." The two of them got in the car, and Ouyang Xin said, "But luckily, Xia Ji is a softie, otherwise they would have gotten into a fight if they hadn't been allowed to drink."
"We have a good relationship. We grew up together. I feel like Sicheng has had a hard time enduring it. Now it depends on when the younger one will wake up."
"It feels a bit difficult. The younger one doesn't seem to have any thoughts in that regard at all. He's still talking about 'Aba Aba Aba'."
In the summer, I fell asleep as soon as I got on the bus, with my head tilted back, mouth slightly open, leaning back in the seat, my sleeping face clean and peaceful.
Si Cheng looked out the car window with a deep gaze, not knowing what he was thinking.
The car went directly to the five-star hotel where Sicheng was staying. When we arrived downstairs, Xia Ji was still asleep.
The crew was filming day and night, and he was still young, which was the time when he needed to sleep a lot, so he could never get enough sleep.
The driver whispered to me, "We've arrived."
Si Cheng didn't say anything. He lowered his eyes to look at Xia Ji for a while, then turned around and got out of the car.
The driver quickly got out of the car to help open Xia Ji's door.
Si Cheng bent down, picked up the baseball cap on the middle armrest and covered his face with it, then pulled him to his chest and carried him out of the car.
Anyway, this happened more than once or twice. He was taller than him, and when he was a child, if this guy couldn't see or get something, he would just ask him to hold him with confidence.
Smelling the familiar scent, Xia Ji didn't even open his eyes, but subconsciously hugged Si Cheng's neck tighter.
He was fair-skinned, with slender limbs and delicate bones. Si Cheng held him in his arms, holding his buttocks face to face, and she lay on his shoulder with her two long, thin white legs hanging down. If you didn't look carefully, you would think she was a girl, but if you looked closely, you could see that she was dressed like a boy, wearing boys' clothes and shoes.
It was noon and people were coming and going at the hotel entrance.
Fortunately, many couples hug like this and cover their faces, so others just take a few glances at them at most and it doesn't attract much attention.
It was already past four in the afternoon when Xia woke up.
The curtains on the floor-to-ceiling windows in the hotel suite's bedroom were half-drawn, revealing the azure, cloudless sky and the setting sun. The temperature outside was visibly high, and cold air was pouring out of the central air-conditioning vents.
Xia Ji stretched his body, rolled around twice on the bed with the quilt in his arms, found his cell phone on the bedside table, opened WeChat and called someone.
Your Ji Ji: Brother?
The reply came back very quickly.
Brother: Meeting in the study.
I have stayed in this hotel suite before when filming a movie, so Xia is very familiar with the decoration here. There are two bedrooms, three bathrooms, a study, a living room, a kitchen, a chess and card room, and an audio-visual room.
I was feeling a bit greedy and wanted to eat some candy but was afraid of getting scolded, so I went to the freezer outside and got a bottle of sparkling drink. I snuggled into the sofa in the living room, drank the drink, and typed on my phone to reply to messages from friends and work.
After replying, he logged into his Weibo account to do business, forward the drama promotion, and reply to fans' messages.
The youth campus inspirational growth drama he filmed some time ago is about to be aired. The drama mainly tells the story of the family and campus life of high school teenagers. The whole drama is well-produced and the cast is also very good. The actors who play parents and teachers are all veteran actors, and the young actors are also young actors and actresses with both strength and popularity.
There are a male and female protagonists in the play. Among the young actors, Xia Ji can only be considered the third male lead. He plays the male protagonist's poor student brother. He can't be considered a poor student, but his grades are much worse than the male protagonist's.
After forwarding the drama promotion, he stood up and took a picture of the sky outside the hotel's floor-to-ceiling windows and posted a Weibo.

Compared to the exquisite and luxurious life shared by other internet celebrities or stars, his Weibo is filled with either the sky or dogs, which is unusually monotonous and low-key.
Although the fanbase wasn't large, it quickly gained likes and comments. Even more eye-catching was a comment from a prominent figure.
