Chapter 72 He can still... for 24 hours
Bai You has been sensible since he was young, and few people have ever told him to "be good" or "be obedient". In comparison, he has told Jin Baobao more often such words.
This feeling was a bit novel, and he smiled for a moment, compromising easily.
"However," he added, "there are many people in the group who are older and more experienced than me. Isn't it a bit inappropriate for me to always have someone around?"
On the screen, Bai You’s face was magnified to the maximum.
He had just taken a shower, and there was still a barely perceptible hint of water on the ends of his hair and eyelashes, which made his eyes and brows look exceptionally clean and docile.
His heart suddenly softened, followed by a steaming heat, like a blazing flame rising into the sky. Meng Qingyan's Adam's apple slid up and down unconsciously.
"Teacher Bai~" he called Bai You.
"Hmm?" Not getting an answer to the question, Bai You raised her long eyelashes slightly and her eyes widened a little.
Meng Qingyan smiled again, and after a moment he said, "I missed you."
"We just separated, Meng Qingyan." Bai You said with a smile, but still moved the phone closer.
First, the only things left on the screen were Bai You's smiling eyes, and then his lips that were slightly red from the heat.
The smiling lips slowly approached, and the moment they were printed on the screen, Meng Qingyan felt his heart stop for a moment.
"More so," he said, his voice deepening slightly.
Bai You laughed and leaned back against the bed, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said soothingly with his usual words to comfort Jin Baobao: "I'll be able to go home to see you in a few days."
"Leave some more benefits." Meng Qingyan is not as easy to please as Jin Baobao, so he took advantage of the situation to get more benefits.
Seeing that Bai You was about to exit the video, he smiled and turned back to the main topic to hook the person.
"I won't let them appear in front of you," he smiled, "just follow them from a distance."
Bai You was stunned for a moment before realizing that Meng Qingyan was answering his question.
Bai You didn't know who Meng Qingyan had arranged for him to come, but the next morning, when Meng Qingyan said that the two people were already there, he had just gotten off the car from the set.
After looking around, I didn't see any suspicious people.
Tao Yin, on the other hand, was having trouble talking in the car just now, so she approached Bai You and asked, "You You, did you see the news last night?"
"Yeah." Bai You responded without making much comment.
"I really didn't expect him to do such a thing." Tao Yin was still a little shocked when she confirmed with Bai You, "He actually dared to drug his colleagues. He's an artist."
Tao Yin only started working at Xingyu two years ago. Although she often runs errands for others, she actually rarely has the opportunity to get in touch with the privacy of other artists, let alone the opportunity to break into other people's core teams.
She was nominally Bai You's assistant, but her deep contact with Bai You only started in Building No. 8.
Before this, most of the roles Bai You received had very few lines, and he was independent, so most of the time he joined the crew alone.
Even if Tao Yin occasionally followed and encountered something, Bai You would have handled it neatly before she took any action.
Although he has been in this circle for nearly three years, Tao Yin is actually only superficially familiar with the various rules within the circle.
Bai You withdrew his gaze from the periphery and met Tao Yin's incredulous gaze. He smiled and said "Yeah."
"Fortunately, you were okay that day." Tao Yin patted his chest. Thinking of those disgusting video scenes on the Internet before, he couldn't help but feel a little scared.
After the incident, the Xingyu Entertainment group was lively for a while, but when people woke up in the morning, many comments had been deleted.
However, this time, Gao Lan did not protect Wei Enquan like before, and even the public relations department did not take any action. It was obvious that the company had planned to give up on him completely.
Bai You's contract is about to expire, Wei Enquan's scandal has been exposed, and apart from Liu Yanfei, Xingyu Entertainment has almost no other artists it can support.
Involving Wei Enquan, Feng Yu and He Dajin, the recently completed Qing Ye will most likely have a hard time getting another chance to be released, and the outside world has also begun to question Xingyu Entertainment's previous support for Wei Enquan to snatch roles and resources from artists from the same company...
At the beginning of the new year, this series of melons has made netizens full.
Xingyu Entertainment, which previously had little presence in the circle, has seen its reputation gradually decline.
If Liu Yanfei fails to discover more influential artists before his contract expires, the future of Xingyu Entertainment will be worrying.
Tao Yin is a little worried about her future career.
"Youyou," she asked, "are you going to sign with Tianying in the future?"
It's this question again, Bai You finds it a little funny.
Before he could answer, Tao Yin asked a little embarrassedly: "If I quit Xingyu, can I still follow you?"
She said anxiously, "I used to be slow to react, but after following two dramas recently, I feel that I have made some progress. Don't worry, I won't be a drag. Even if you think I'm not suitable, I can be your personal assistant and just hang out with you, hey~."
Tao Yin's words gave Bai You a flash of inspiration and gave him some new ideas.
He never thought about signing with Tianying.
Of course, he was not really worried that the two of them would separate in the future and face revenge from Meng Qingyan.
Although he had never said this to Meng Qingyan, Bai You had always been very confident in Meng Qingyan's character.
He had never thought about it before because after experiencing years of constraints and suppression from Xingyu Entertainment, he hoped to keep all the autonomy in his own hands rather than continue to sign with the company.
He also doesn't want to do that now because of his relationship with Meng Qingyan, other people in the company will inevitably treat him with respect.
He doesn't like that kind of atmosphere very much and feels uncomfortable.
However, not signing a contract does not mean that cooperation is impossible, such as the "affiliation" mentioned by Tao Yin.
You can maintain your own small team and utilize Tianying's public resources.
Bai You's eyes lit up, he raised his hand and lightly pressed Tao Yin's shoulder, and said happily: "Thank you, Tao Yin."
"Ah?" Tao Yin was a little dazed.
No, wasn't she asking Baiyou for help?
Why is it Bai You who is thanking her?
Before she could react, Bai You had already changed the subject.
"How long have you signed the contract with Xingyu?" he asked.
Although he has been in Xingyu for many years, in fact, Bai You has never been close to anyone except Jiang Minyao.
Of course, he didn't think there was anything wrong with Tao Yin.
On the contrary, he will remember the kindness of all those who have taken care of him.
But he also needed to understand Tao Yin's specific situation so that he could arrange the follow-up more reasonably.
"Small assistants like us have one-year contracts, which makes it easier for the company to replace fresh blood," Tao Yin said. "My contract will end around the end of summer or early fall, but I can also submit my resignation application one month in advance."
"Yeah." Bai You thought about it and stopped.
As they were talking, the two of them were approaching the set. Everyone was busy, including Liu Ben. Several staff members passed by and greeted Bai You enthusiastically.
"I'm not sure how far we can go in the future, but if you are willing," Bai You smiled, "I welcome it."
-
The news continues to ferment.
Because the identities of the artists were exposed, for a whole week, the Internet was almost entirely filled with various artists' accusations and attempts to distance themselves from their own experiences.
Overnight, almost everyone became a poor little thing.
However, because of Wei Enquan’s incident, the effects are not as good as before.
During this period, the police also issued several statements.
First, He Dajin, who was closely related to the incident, was arrested for illegal private placement, seizing funds, and molesting women.
After He Dajin was arrested, Feng Yu's crimes became clearer, and among them, Wei Enquan was exposed again.
During the years he has been with Feng Yu, Wei Enquan has secretly put drugs in other people's food and drink more than once in order to compete for better resources.
However, He Dajin and Wei Enquan were both imprisoned, and Feng Yu, who had previously posted the video, has disappeared without a trace.
A week passed quickly, and when the Lantern Festival arrived, Bai You returned to Beijing to handle matters related to his resignation.
As expected, Xingyu Entertainment did not make things difficult for him.
Zhu Zhijun almost vomited blood when he thought about the fact that Bai You, whose popularity was rising rapidly, had nothing to do with Xingyu Entertainment anymore.
"Let's have dinner together." After everything was settled, Zhu Zhijun took the initiative to knock on Jiang Minyao's office door.
Jiang Minyao said nothing and looked at Bai You.
"Thank you, Mr. Zhu," Bai You stood up politely, "but I don't remember that the company has this process."
"Isn't it ready?" Zhu Zhijun laughed, not getting annoyed. "I've already booked a hotel. It's not far from the Jin family. It won't delay your reunion with your family tonight."
Then he said, "Don't worry, I won't let you drink."
Jiang Minyao knew clearly that Zhu Zhijun wanted to use Bai You to establish a relationship with Meng Qingyan.
It's a pity that the relationship was just made up by her, and Zhu Zhijun had completely miscalculated.
Jiang Minyao found it funny, thinking that she hadn't eaten a meal invited by Zhu Zhijun in all these years, so she decided directly: "Then let's go together."
The restaurant is near the Jin family's house, just two streets away, and it only takes about ten minutes to walk there.
After dinner, Bai You walked home.
The wind started to blow in the afternoon, the sky became gloomy, and the wind blew along the alley, blowing through the thin coat.
The alleys between the old buildings and the old houses are inexplicably a bit colder.
The further I walked, the more obvious the cold feeling became, as if someone was staring coldly at me.
It was like a snake spitting out its tongue coldly in the darkness, waiting for an opportunity to counterattack.
The alleys were winding and there was no one within sight, neither the two arranged by Meng Qingyan nor anyone else.
Only occasionally would cars of nearby residents be parked in relatively wide areas at the intersection of alleys.
Bai You turned around again, but his vigilance was at its peak.
He was no stranger to this feeling.
It was the same as when he was a kid and those bad kids blocked him in the narrow alley outside the school.
Bai You was not afraid, and he knew that the other party would come out soon, because not far ahead, after turning a corner, he would be able to step onto the last narrow alley connecting to the main road.
The man took steps one by one on the clean bluestone slabs, and sure enough, when he was near the corner, he finally came out.
The clothes were shabby and even ill-fitting, the hair was greasy and dirty and covered the eyes, and the body was so thin that it looked like a skeleton...
"Bai You," Feng Yu came closer, his laughter had an indescribable weirdness, "Do you still recognize me?"
"If you don't speak, it would be really hard to recognize you." Bai You said coldly.
Feng Yu knew how He Dajin lost his tooth, and Bai You didn't think he would approach him without any confidence.
However, he has been deserted by everyone and would never tell others his whereabouts easily, so it is highly likely that he will not have any helpers.
Bai You's gaze moved down and saw his tightly clenched right hand.
"You are together with Meng Qingyan, right?" Feng Yu asked.
"What does it have to do with you?" Bai You calmly calculated the distance.
"If it weren't for you, how could he target me like this?" Feng Yu said sternly, "If it weren't for you, how could I end up in this situation today?"
"If I can't get him, can't I get you? Can he protect you 24 hours a day?" I tell you, "There is nothing I can't get who I want."
The last word was not uttered smoothly because the shrill screams echoed throughout the alley.
Bai You raised his foot and kicked Feng Yu hard before he could use the spray in his hand.
The wrist bone cracked with a sound, and the spray bottle in Feng Yu's hand fell onto the bluestone slab and rolled to the corner of the wall.
In a car near the wall, two young men wearing sunglasses stopped getting out of the car and made some noises.
One said: "Fuck, this kick must have shattered all my bones into pieces."
The other whispered, "So awesome? What's our role?"
