Chapter 24 Pink Eye



The coffee in front of the two people was untouched and had already gone cold.

Bai Ziwei pulled up his collar to cover his lower face, and looked around vigilantly, wishing he could hide his entire body.

Even though he had been terminated by Yunxiao last night, at least he was still a public figure with fans and rivals.

Shao Jinhuan was very open and only wore sunglasses and a hat, looking at Bai Ziwei with a cold expression.

"What on earth do you want to talk to me about?"

Bai Ziwei felt angry at his unfamiliar and cold tone. It was so different from the original novel that it was almost as if the words "I'm not familiar with you" were written on his face.

Bai Ziwei took a deep breath and lowered his head in grievance: "Brother Shao... Yunxiao actually terminated my contract and even slandered me for targeting artists from the same company! How could I..."

Shao Jinhuan's eyes were indifferent, and he said after a while: "The contract should have been terminated long ago." Otherwise, he would cause trouble for Xiaoci in the company every day.

Bai Ziwei almost couldn't hold back the innocent and pitiful look he had just put on, and the corners of his eyes twitched violently.

He suppressed his anger and continued with a choked voice: "How can Brother Shao say that? I work diligently every day, how can I not compare to Shen Ci, why am I the one who terminated the contract?"

"The person who reported and slandered me must be Shen Ci! He is so bad, wuwuwu..."

Shao Jinhuan frowned. What does it have to do with Xiaoci? Wasn't it his own fault that he was fired?

Ever since the car accident, the gentle, kind and considerate Bai Ziwei in my memory has become increasingly vague.

Shao Jinhuan said indifferently: "Instead of being a pink eye disease, it is better to focus on improving yourself."

Bai Ziwei didn't expect Shao Jinhuan to be so ruthless, but he still gritted his teeth and held back his anger, saying: "Brother Shao, you are right, I should really work hard. Then... Brother Shao, can you recommend me and let me sign a contract with your company? This way I will have a platform to continue working hard."

This is his biggest goal today.

In the original novel, Bai Ziwei had been terminated by Yunxiao when he was in a car accident. With the secret help of Shao Jinhuan, he signed with the other party's company and began his career to its peak.

Now that the contract has finally been terminated, Bai Ziwei must of course find ways to continue with the original plot.

Unexpectedly, Shao Jinhuan shook his head and said, "No."

Bai Ziwei had never expected Shao Jinhuan to be so decisive. He said in disbelief, "Why, Brother Shao? You...you weren't like this before!"

Shao Jinhuan seemed too lazy to respond. He casually looked up and glanced out the window, but unexpectedly saw two familiar figures.

Although they were fully armed with their faces covered and wearing bulky coats, Shao Jinhuan still recognized them at a glance.

He stood up hurriedly, brushed past Bai Ziwei and left the cafe: "This is not my decision. I have something urgent to do, so I'm leaving first."

Bai Ziwei quickly grabbed Shao Jinhuan's arm and said, "Brother Shao, wait a minute."

Shao Jinhuan frowned slightly, turned around and stared down at Bai Ziwei. Bai Ziwei was flustered by his cold eyes and subconsciously let go.

Shao Jinhuan strode away without looking back.

***

As soon as Shen Ci finished pointing, he saw Shao Jinhuan's gaze suddenly turned towards him, and Shen Ci quickly put his hand down.

How embarrassing! I got caught!

"Go, go!" Shen Ci pushed Wei Shuo and urged him to leave, away from this place of trouble.

Wei Shuo did not move, but looked with an amusement at Shao Jinhuan who was running out in a hurry, and at Bai Ziwei who stood up and chased after him with an anxious look on his face.

Seeing Shao Jinhuan walking towards them, Shen Ci turned around and pretended to be calm as he walked towards the store next door: "Ah, the clothes here look really nice, I'll go take a look first."

Wei Shuo grabbed the back of his collar fiercely, and rolled his eyes at him: "Look up and see what kind of store that is."

Shen Ci looked up, confused, and saw the sign clearly reading "Women's Underwear Shop".

Shen Ci: “…”

Shao Jinhuan had already walked over, adjusting his originally hurried pace to an elegant and leisurely pace, and said lightly: "What a coincidence."

It seemed like he was talking to Wei Shuo, but his eyes were fixed on the soft chestnut hair at the back of Shen Ci's head.

"hehe."

Wei Shuo smiled wryly, put his hands on Shen Ci's shoulders and turned him around.

Shen Ci greeted Shao Jinhuan awkwardly, and in his heart he stabbed Wei Shuo a thousand times for deliberately causing trouble.

Bai Ziwei followed out breathlessly and stopped behind Shao Jinhuan.

As he got closer, he recognized Shen Ci and Wei Shuo. His eyes widened immediately and he stared at Shen Ci with gritted teeth.

Shen Ci was puzzled. How had he offended him again? His expression was so fierce.

Shao Jinhuan looked at Wei Shuo who was surrounding the unaware Shen Ci and showing off his power to him, and his face looked a little ugly.

Wei Shuo was very stimulating.

Shao Jinhuan knew that given Shen Ci's current level of wariness towards him, there was no way the two of them could be that close.

In the final analysis, it was all his fault that he didn't see his own heart clearly and lost Shen Ci.

Wei Shuo immediately said, "What are you looking at? The person you are protecting is about to cry behind you, go and comfort him."

Bai Ziwei was very surprised when he heard this, and glared at the two of them even more fiercely.

Shen Ci: “…” Do you dare to say in your conscience that he is about to cry?

Wei Shuo's words were full of schadenfreude and sarcasm, and he continued, "Oh, I just don't understand. You tolerate this bully Xiaoci every day, and then you come back to care about how Xiaoci is hurt. Who are you sincere to?"

Shao Jinhuan's face became increasingly gloomy: "I have never condoned it. Whatever he does, it has nothing to do with me."

Wei Shuo sneered and disagreed.

Shen Ci was troubled when he saw the two men at loggerheads. The three of them were childhood friends, how did it develop to this point?

He didn't want to have anything to do with Shao Jinhuan at all, but Wei Shuo didn't care about that and insisted on teaching Shao Jinhuan a lesson everywhere.

In this respect, he is exactly the same as Shen Bie.

Shen Ci sighed. He was forced to be in a difficult position again.

"Let's go buy something first?" He tugged at Wei Shuo's clothes and winked at him, telling him not to mess with these two people.

Wei Shuo looked like a troublemaker who wanted nothing more than to cause chaos in the world: "Why are you in such a hurry? Let's catch up with our old friends first."

He raised his chin and pointed at Bai Ziwei: "After all, it's not easy to run into this guy. When he did something big last night, I wanted to slap him in the face."

Bai Ziwei's eyes flashed with panic. Impossible! How could others know that he was involved last night?

Although the agent presented solid evidence when he called me last night in the middle of the night and said he wanted to terminate the contract, I had already told him this morning not to spread it!

Shen Ci must have told Wei Shuo! Who knows how many other people he has told, waiting to continue to destroy his entertainment career.

He cast his hateful gaze at Shen Ci again, but Wei Shuo stepped forward to block it, looking at Bai Ziwei with a half-smile: "Take it easy, if you keep glaring at me I'll dig your eyes out."

Bai Ziwei's eyes immediately drooped in grievance, and his eyes turned red: "I slept well last night and didn't do anything wrong. Why do you always pick on me?"

Wei Shuo couldn't stand his hypocritical and coy attitude the most: "Don't think that Uncle Lu is being polite to you for Xiao Ci's sake and terminating the contract. Others will let you go!"

"I just said it casually to test you, but who knew your face would turn into paper in an instant? Aren't you forcing me to believe it?"

Bai Ziwei had nothing to say, so he looked at Shao Jinhuan with tears in his eyes, trying to seek his sympathy and support: "Brother Shao, I really don't understand what they are saying. I know you must believe me..."

Even if I can't help him get into the company, I can always play the role of the protagonist when he is bullied, right?

Shao Jinhuan took his eyes off Shen Ci out of respect and said, "I don't believe it."

Bai Ziwei: “…”

He ignored Bai Ziwei's stunned look, walked to Shen Ci's side, stretched out his hand to adjust his earmuffs, and said in a low and gentle voice: "Put them on."

Bai Ziwei's anger rose sharply at the completely different gentle look. He was being bullied to death by the aggressive Wei Shuo, and Shao Jinhuan was actually looking for a chance to put the earmuffs on Shen Ci? !

Shen Ci didn't react and grabbed Wei Shuo's coat tightly.

Wei Shuo quickly slapped Shao Jinhuan's hand away: "Tsk, I didn't keep an eye on you and you succeeded. Forget it, I won't bother with you guys anymore."

He cautiously pulled Shen Ci behind him and gave Bai Ziwei a ferocious look: "It's okay if you say you don't understand."

"Anyway, I'm warning you, you'll have to be careful in the future."

"If you dare to hang around Xiaoci again, I will beat you up every time I see you."

Wei Shuo uttered some harsh words and took Shen Ci, who was still in an unconscious state, away.

Bai Zi was slightly confused. Seeing Shao Jinhuan was about to follow, he quickly reached out and grabbed him: "Brother Shao——"

This time, Shao Jinhuan didn't even turn his head, he just shook them off and hurriedly followed the two people in front of him.

Bai Ziwei's face turned ashen and he stomped his feet several times in anger.

It’s better not to have a protagonist who has changed his mind like this!

Compared to this, the person who is best to him now is actually the villain Lu Xiao.

Although the contract was terminated, his reputation was not completely ruined, and the reason for the termination was kept secret.

Bai Ziwei was somewhat moved. This was clearly a concession. He estimated that the termination of the contract was just to deal with Shen Ci, that little cannon fodder.

I felt a little regretful for secretly taking pictures of Lu Xiao and Shen Ci and using them, after all, they liked me.

But Lu Xiao handled it so tolerantly... he must not be angry.

Bai Ziwei's heartbeat couldn't help but quicken.

***

Shen Ci didn't buy the gift in the end because Wei Shuo couldn't stand Shao Jinhuan following him, so he decisively suggested buying it next time.

Of course Shen Ci agreed with both hands raised and feet raised. Wei Shuo was afraid that Shao Jinhuan would "take advantage of the situation", so he vigilantly drove him away and personally sent Shen Ci home.

Shen Ci returned to his small single apartment and felt something was odd as soon as he entered the door.

He took off his shoes and walked out of the hallway, only to find that there was someone sitting on the sofa with his back to him! Shen Ci was so frightened that he took a few steps back.

But after a closer look, Shen Ci quickly recognized who it was.

Shen Ci breathed a sigh of relief and ran over to sit next to him: "Uncle, why didn't you tell me you were here?"

Lu Xiao was still wearing glasses and reading documents, which Shen Ci found very strange. Since his uncle was so busy at work, why did he come over?

Lu Xiao looked up at him and said leisurely, "Just check your phone."

Shen Ci obediently took out his cell phone from his backpack. When he opened the screen, he saw a striking line of words.

Missed call: Uncle A (23)

Shen Ci: “…”

Looking at the gentle smile on Lu Xiao's lips, which seemed to indicate that a storm was about to come, Shen Ci couldn't help but swallow his saliva nervously.
