Chapter 80: Intent to Kill
Jin Baobao sat opposite and drank soup.
Bite after bite.
His whole face was buried in the soup bowl, with only a pair of eyes sticking out from the edge of the bowl, looking again and again.
Meng Qingyan served Bai You soup, Meng Qingyan picked up some food for Bai You, Meng Qingyan approached Bai You and whispered, "Oh my god, they must have held hands under the table just now..."
It feels so fucking good to ship a couple on the spot. Damn, who understands?
After finishing the soup, Baby Jin was still sitting there sucking mechanically. The excessive sugar content numbed his senses.
"Baby," Bai You was always the first to notice his abnormality. He smiled and reached out to take his bowl of soup, and asked curiously, "Do you like this soup so much?"
Jin Baobao: “…”
Not wanting to lose face in front of his idol, Jin Baobao nodded heavily.
Bai You smiled, poured him another half bowl and handed it to him, reminding him: "Don't eat too much even if you like it. You still need to eat some fruit later."
Jin Baobao nodded and picked up the bowl again.
The new house has been renovated, the odor has been removed, and all the soft furnishings have been moved in. Today, Bai Xiuxi officially moved out of the Jin family.
After all, Bai You's identity is different now, and more and more people are staring at him. Bai Xiuxi may not be able to continue living as a nanny.
Fortunately, the Jin Lai couple are usually busy and don't go home for meals very often. Jin Baobao is also in college and usually has lunch at school. In the morning and evening, he can go directly to Bai Xiuxi's place for meals.
The Jin Lai couple did not plan to hire a live-in nanny. They only hired an aunt to cook and clean the house once a week.
"You've been busy all day, you must be hungry, right?" Bai Xiuxi looked at them with a smile.
Although it had been a while, she was still a little uncomfortable seeing Meng Qingyan.
Although the other party had deliberately dressed casually and looked like an approachable male college student, the aura and momentum of a superior could not be hidden no matter how hard he tried.
Like Jin Baobao, Bai Xiuxi felt a little timid.
Therefore, she could particularly empathize with Jin Baobao, who always called her "my Yanyan" but was like a quail and didn't dare to say a word when they really met.
Bai Xiuxi seldom goes online and isn't very good at using a cell phone.
But she was not unfamiliar with Meng Qingyan's name.
She knew that he was Jin Baobao's idol, that he had won two Best Actor awards, and that he was the eldest son of a wealthy family. Even the young master, who was already very impressive in her eyes, could only look up to him secretly...
But now...
This almost perfect young man who always appeared in Jin Baobao's mouth was sitting on the other side of the dining table.
She was caring towards Bai You and called her "Mom" together with Bai You. She was not pretentious or arrogant, and she never looked down on their mother and son's family background and status.
Bai Xiuxi was both pleased and touched, yet a little reluctant. She didn't know how to repay the guest, so she could only try her best to cook a large table of her specialty dishes.
Seeing them enjoying their meal makes me happy too.
"Qingyan has been helping out all day today. Will it delay work?" Bai Xiuxi heard from Jin Baobao that Meng Qingyan was super busy.
"No, Mom," Meng Qingyan said naturally, smiling and looking up, "I took a week off to accompany Youyou."
Hearing this, Jin Baobao almost spit out a mouthful of soup.
After forcing himself to swallow it, he turned his head and started coughing.
As a fan of Meng Qingyan, everyone knows that he is a super workaholic.
But he is willing to take a week off for their daughter Youyou!
Too sweet, chokes my throat.
Jinbaobao really wants to share.
A hand gently patted his back. Jin Baobao raised his eyes and saw Bai You's concerned eyes through the misty tears...
And there was the indifferent look Meng Qingyan gave him.
Jin Baobao: “…”
I feel like there is murderous intent.
He hurriedly shook his head at Bai You, "I'm fine."
Bai Xiuxi handed over a tissue and wiped away the tears that Jin Baobao had choked with, just like she did when they were children.
"Be careful." After all, she was the one who brought up the child, so she couldn't help but feel sorry for him. Bai Xiuxi smiled and said, "If you like, Aunt Bai will make it for you tomorrow."
There was also Meng Qingyan, who liked the glutinous rice, osmanthus and lotus root she made, so Bai Xiuxi secretly took note of it.
"Mom," Bai You put down his chopsticks after finishing his meal, his eyes curved, "My next movie will be released on National Day, I'll book the theater, can we go watch it as a family?"
The upper part of Building 8 was a bit too much, and Bai You was embarrassed to let his mother see it.
As for whether Bai Xiuxi had watched it privately, Bai You didn't know, but as long as his mother didn't watch it in front of him, it would be fine.
"Really?" Jin Baobao didn't care about the red face from coughing, and immediately became excited, "I want to book the whole place too."
The last time Building No. 8 was released, Jin Baobao, Ye Zhiqiu and Li Shaojun booked 200 screenings. Bai You only found out about it later.
Hearing this, he put down his chopsticks and smiled, "Don't waste money."
Although he didn't say everything, the confidence between his brows was particularly bright.
Obviously very confident in "fireworks".
After the meal, the two left, but Jin Baobao was curious about the new thing and stayed at Bai Xiuxi's place.
Meng Qingyan was still driving a car that was inconspicuous when squeezed into the traffic.
Bai You is very popular and he just got out of the group not long ago. Many people have benefited from the news about him this year.
Among young people in their twenties, is there anyone who can truly endure loneliness?
Now many media are hoping to dig out some news from him. If they can get exclusive footage, they will definitely make a fortune.
Therefore, there are often paparazzi lurking outside Jin's community and the community where he currently rents a house.
However, this time Bai You did not live in these two places.
Even when Bai Xiuxi was moving today, Jin Lai specially arranged for the company's employees to help. Bai You and Meng Qingyan only showed up after everyone had left.
The car drove forward and when it passed the Baiyou community, we saw a few young men in baseball caps looking furtively at every car that turned into the community.
This kind of high-pressure surveillance is very disgusting, but fortunately, the privacy function of Meng Qingyan's car is extremely good, and the two of them have gained experience in sneaking around, so even though they have been living together for a while, they have not been photographed.
A seven-day vacation is rare. Although they spent as much time together as possible, they did not put all their energy into these things.
Together, he took Xiaoliang to Meng's house to accompany Meng Shizhao and Shen Yueting for dinner, and went to Bai Xiuxi's house to chat with the old people. They also got together to read scripts and select books.
Seven days is not a short time for someone like Meng Qingyan who works all year round, but because he spent it with the person he loved, it passed in the blink of an eye.
Fortunately, after careful consideration, the script for Bai You's next play was finally finalized.
It's a new team.
It’s a new director and a new screenwriter, but the script is very well written.
Bai You wants to give it a try.
Tianying handles a series of matters such as signing contracts and passing contracts, which makes it much easier and less troublesome than before.
After all the formalities were completed, the official account of the movie officially announced it that night, and Bai You’s fans and audiences immediately became excited.
[Ahhhhhh, finally there’s news about Bai You’s next movie. 】
[That’s great. Although I haven’t taken any photos yet, it feels so safe to have some food to stock up. 】
[Damn, Bai You is really courageous. Because this movie is made with a new team, many people were reluctant to take the role. I didn’t expect that he would turn down Zhao Laogao’s big production and take this script instead? 】
[Informed person?] Say more, say more. 】
[The actors in this movie have not been chosen well because most people are worried about the instability. After all, new directors still have shortcomings in shooting and production experience, and the investors will also be very cautious. Think about Qingye and Xue Wenping who made mistakes in order to attract investment. But now if Bai You can take over, there should be no shortage of funds. 】
[Building No. 8 and Fireworks were both directed by famous directors. It can be said that the script chose him. Strictly speaking, this should be Bai You's first time to choose a script. I hope he can keep his eyes open. No matter how rich his family is, he can't afford to make bad movies. 】
[This director has made two short films before, both with good rhythm and reputation. I recommend everyone to watch them. After all, the great director also started out as a newcomer, and Bai You has a very stable personality. He should have carefully considered this, so this should be a good movie. 】
[I have confidence in Youyou, I watch whatever he shoots. 】
[Oh my god, Meng’s Jewelry just announced that it will invest in this movie. What a shame! What a shame! What a shame!…]
[I'll support the Qingbai CP: Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, guess why Meng's Jewelry invested in such a movie that no one was originally optimistic about? 】
[Damn, I was just about to take a sip, but when I saw the words upstairs, I immediately sobered up. I guess it’s probably the same reason why Bai You chose this movie. 】
[Hahahaha, I'm dying of laughter. However, I still have to support it after seeing "I'll Take It". Meng Shi appears in all three of Bai You's movies, so how can I not think too much about it. 】
[Wow, now all production and promotion should be under the jurisdiction of Tianying. Tianying's ability is obvious to all. I am now optimistic about this new team. 】
【……】
The name of this movie is "Gambling Heart", which is a subject of psychological portraiture.
The group originally had difficulty in attracting investment and finding actors.
After all, it takes half a year to shoot a film, and a half-year gap is fatal for some actors, so even young actors are reluctant to take it.
As for Bai You, the team didn't even dare to think about it. They submitted their book just with the idea of trying their luck.
No one expected that Bai You would actually answer the call.
As soon as the news came out, those investors who had been approached by the main creators but could not even meet the main creators suddenly became proactive and wanted to invest.
But the opportunity has been missed. With Bai You's joining and Tianying and QL investing at the same time, the movie "Gambling" instantly went from being a piece of fat meat that no one wanted to watch to a piece of everyone wanted to have a piece of.
The investors and artists who rejected this film at the beginning are now regretting it.
Psychological profiling is a very complex technology that involves psychology, criminology and statistics...
While studying the script in seclusion, Bai You also visited several retired professional psychological portrait artists, went to classes on time and at a fixed location, and studied the relevant knowledge seriously.
Bai You never thought of himself as a talented actor.
I never envy other actors who can shoot multiple movies in a year.
In comparison, he is more suitable for repeatedly cultivating and fertilizing a small piece of land to turn it into fertile soil.
Therefore, he is used to setting aside more time to study the script before filming.
As the days passed and the notes on Baiyou's desk piled higher and higher, "Fireworks" finally released its first trailer.
In less than a minute, netizens:
[Ahhhhhhhhhh, fuck it, I'm bursting into tears, Actor Bai You, please get up here. 】
