Chapter 127 Birthday Party
Although he saw Han Zhong and Jiang Wu arguing in the unfinished building that night, assistant Yao Ping was still quite sad when he heard Han Zhong say that Jiang Wu had moved out. He witnessed the process of the two people getting to know each other and being together, and he also knew that his boss really liked Jiang Wu. It was a pity that it ended like this.
Han Zhong was worried the whole time they were driving back to Ziyuan from the hospital. Yao Ping thought about how he had rushed to the hospital early in the morning and couldn't help asking, "Mr. Han, are you feeling unwell?"
"no."
“…”
After returning to Ziyuan, Han Zhong went to the bathroom to wash his face first. He looked at himself in the mirror and recalled all the memories that happened after he came back last night, but it always came to an abrupt end after he walked out of the bathroom.
After a long silence, he went back to his room, took out his cell phone and called a number. After a long while, a lazy voice rang out from the other end, "What can you do to talk to me, President Han?"
Han Zhong frowned and said, "I have something to ask you."
Perhaps his polite words pleased Zhou Yannan, and his tone was no longer gloomy, but he asked calmly, "What is it?"
"I lost some of my memory last night after drinking, but I don't think there was any aggressive behavior—"
"You don't remember?" Zhou Yannan suddenly interrupted him.
Han Zhong's heart was shocked, "You know?"
"I know. Jiang Wu called me right after you passed out last night." Before he could ask, Zhou Yannan asked, "How much do you remember?"
Han opened his mouth again and said hesitantly, "I...seemed to dream that I kissed Jiang Wu."
He thought the other party would laugh at his dream, but the other party replied in confusion, "Didn't you force the kiss on her?"
Han Zhong's heart suddenly sank.
At the same time, in a room on a certain floor of the Xiangti Green Garden community, Jiang Wu was cleaning the new residence with Zhang Xiaoyu. During the cleaning process, Zhang Xiaoyu would occasionally peek at Jiang Wu. Finally, he couldn't help but asked, "Brother Jiang, what's wrong with your mouth?"
Jiang Wudong, who was moving the table, paused for a moment, then calmly replied, "I bit it by accident."
Zhang Xiaoyu looked at the wound on his mouth and thought, do I look like a fool?
It's not that he was gossiping, but because "Asking the Life" was about to start filming and they would join the crew in two days. The wound on Jiang Wu's mouth was too sensitive. Not to mention that it would cause a scandal, it would also be inconvenient for filming at that time.
"By the way, have you read the information about the new male lead?"
“I have.”
“That’s good.” Zhang Xiaoyu feels it’s a dream now that he thinks about it. He thought that after Ke Xingyan left, Director He would just pick someone to save the situation, but he didn’t expect that the person who came was another top star, He Yunxing.
Yes, it was He Yunxing, who had previously played the dual male lead with Ke Xingyan and became famous but then fell out with him.
After the news of Ke Xingyan's suspected money laundering was exposed, He Yunxing's fans came out to add fuel to the fire. Now, the director of "Asking the Life" actually chose He Yunxing to be the new male lead after Ke Xingyan's scandal, which instantly raised the topic of this drama.
Two days ago, the official Weibo account of “Asking Life” announced the new male lead He Yunxing, and the quiet internet instantly became lively.
In addition to talking about the previous incident in which Ko Hsing-yen was suspected of money laundering, fans and passers-by in the comment section also talked about the past of Ko and He. Some said that they were pure liars, some said that they broke up after being together with true feelings, some said that He broke up because he had a one-sided love for Ko, and some even said that Ko was bisexual.
In short, there were many different opinions and it was very lively.
Jiang Wu, with the experience of Ke Xingyan as a precedent, also made a point to learn more about He Yunxing, and discovered that he was a real entertainment industry worker who was very dedicated and open to the public almost every week, including but not limited to posting on Weibo, selfies, vlogs, replying to fans' comments, and dropping into super chats.
In addition, he is also a model worker in the industry. He is either joining the crew or on the way to join the crew. It is said that the drama "Asking the Life" was originally intended for him, but because it clashed with another drama, Director He found Ke Xingyan. Unexpectedly, after many twists and turns, the role still fell to He Yunxing.
As for his handsome appearance, as netizens describe him, he is tough and handsome, about 1.80 meters tall, with six-pack abs, deep facial features, and a bit of mixed-race look. He is very charming, and his persona to outsiders is that of a gentle and warm man. He has a good reputation, but I don't know whether it is true or not.
Zhang Xiaoyu said that this was a good opportunity. He Yunxing's drama has its own traffic, so it will definitely gain a lot of popularity.
Jiang Wu has no interest in riding on the popularity of others, he just hopes that there won’t be another Ke Xingyan.
The night before joining the group, Jiang Wu called Zhou Yannan. The other party seemed to be in a social occasion with a lot of people. The noise was chaotic but not noisy. It should be some kind of banquet.
"I will be filming tomorrow. If there is any progress on the Divine Bell, please notify me immediately. If you can't find me, please call my assistant. I sent you the number on WeChat."
"OK."
Jiang Wu said again, "Please help me take care of Han Zhong more."
Zhou Yannan was speechless, "I'm very busy and don't have time to help you take care of the children."
If he had said this when they first met, Jiang Wu might have believed it. However, after spending some time together, Jiang Wu had already seen that he was a man with a hard mouth but a soft heart. He said he was having troubles, but he actually helped him a lot. He was just like Zhou Gongming back then, very chivalrous.
"In addition to the evil body, someone has also secretly assassinated him before. The mastermind behind this has not been found yet. I suspect that the other party will also use spells, so I can only ask you for help."
"knew."
In a corner of a lively and luxurious upper-class banquet, Zhou Yannan leaned against the wall and listened to Jiang Wu's orderly voice. He cast his eyes towards Han Zhong who was talking to someone not far in front of him, and replied nonchalantly.
As if aware of his gaze, Han Zhong, who was surrounded by the crowd, raised his eyes and looked towards the hidden corner. He was obviously startled when he saw the action of his own hand making a phone call. Just when Zhou Yannan thought he was about to come over, a figure pushing a wheelchair blocked his sight.
"Mr. Han, long time no see." Fang Zhiyuan, who was wearing a black haute couture suit, was sitting in a wheelchair and was pushed over by Fang Zhiyi. He greeted Han Zhong with a smile.
Han Zhong paused and glanced at Zhou Yannan in the corner. The other party had hung up the phone. He pursed his lips and looked at Fang Zhiyuan who was sitting in a wheelchair. "Long time no see, Mr. Fang."
Then he reached out to Fang Zhiyi who was sitting in the wheelchair, "Mr. Fang."
"Mr. Han." Fang Zhiyi smiled and shook his hand, then asked, "Where's Mr. Jiang? Why didn't you come with us?"
Han Zhong withdrew his hand without changing his expression. "He has recently been addicted to recording his life with his mobile phone, taking pictures of scenery everywhere, and occasionally he would take pictures of people running naked in the garden without clothes."
Fang Zhiyi: “…”
Although the people around them could not understand the conversation between the two, they could sense the undercurrents. At this time, Fang Zhiyuan suddenly asked, "What happened to President Han's left hand?"
Fang Zhiyi then noticed that Han Zhong's left hand was wrapped in a white bandage, and seemed to be seriously injured.
"If you get hurt accidentally, the workers will always care about you."
"Mr. Han, you are too polite. My brother is still young and needs your guidance."
"With Mr. Fang being such an outstanding brother, how can I be his mentor?"
"Mr. Han is too modest."
The official courtesies between the two disappointed the people watching the excitement. Although the two were of different ages, they were children of aristocratic families who were always compared together. Unfortunately, Fang Zhiyuan fell ill later. Today's birthday party was also to pave the way for his younger brother, so he probably couldn't "compete" anymore.
The crowd dispersed quickly. Han Zhong was too lazy to deal with Fang Zhiyi and was about to leave when Zhou Yannan came over. He was wearing a white suit and stopped in front of the group with his hands in his pockets. He looked at Fang Zhiyuan in the wheelchair with his sleepy eyes.
"I heard that very few people with the Fang family's genetic disease can recover after the age of 30. How did Mr. Fang cure it?"
