Chapter 603: The Scapegoat: I Really Can’t Bear This Blame



Wei Yang, wearing a yellow vest, sat in the police car with his head slightly lowered, looking dazed, and unable to hide his depressed mood.

According to the plot, he just attended the trial. Although the judge understood to a certain extent that he helped patients, it was also a fact that he smuggled drugs, and he was sentenced to five years in prison.

The escorting policeman was the first to notice something was wrong, understood the reason, and kindly reminded his colleague who was driving.

"Drive slower."

Wei Yang was shaken by the slowed-down car speed. He looked at the driver in confusion, and then saw the patients waiting on the roadside.

The police car drove slowly, passing one patient after another. Through the car window, Wei Yang's eyes flashed across the patients he had helped.

The huge crowd made Wei Yang a little surprised and confused at first, but then he slowly realized the purpose of the crowd, and he couldn't suppress the emotion and relief on his face.

And when he saw the patients taking off their masks one by one, he understood from his previous understanding that this was the patients' tribute and gratitude. When he found the pastor he worked with, Liu Sihui and her daughter, and Lu Shouyi's wife in the crowd, Wei Yang could no longer suppress his emotions and tears welled up in his eyes.

In a trance, he seemed to see Lu Shouyi and Huang Mao, the two people who had influenced his life and who made him feel the most guilty.

Lu Shouyi, a man who always has a humble and optimistic look on his face, also stood in the crowd, took off his mask, and revealed his signature weak smile.

Huangmao was not wearing a mask. He had a flat head, curved lips and sparkling eyes.

No one said a word during the whole process, but silence was louder than a thousand words.

The hot tears in his eyes flowed down. Wei Yang turned his head, took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and then opened them again. There were still tears in his eyes, but there was a slight smile on his face.

At this moment, he was not sure whether he had completed the so-called self-redemption, but he knew that what he was doing was right.

The police car stopped and director Wen Muye's voice came through the intercom, his voice firm.

"No problem, passed!"

Wei Yang ignored him, leaned against the police car, covered his face with his hands, and tried to calm himself down. The people in the crew were used to it.

Towards the end of the filming of "Dying to Survive", Wei Yang was so immersed in the role that he became so caught up in it that he was unable to get out of it several times after filming.

The most serious one was the scene where Huangmao died and he questioned the policeman's brother-in-law. It took him more than half an hour to calm down and smoke five or six cigarettes before he could finish the scene.

This time Wei Yang was better. After a few minutes, he rubbed his face and got out of the car. Then he watched the replay and agreed with Wen Muye's words.

Wei Yang's nod also indicated that the filming of "Dying to Survive" was completely completed. The scene, which was sad and dull just now, was suddenly filled with cheers.

After chatting with the producer and director for a few words, Wei Yang called Liu Shishi again. There would be a wrap party in the evening and he didn’t know what time it would end. If he couldn’t wait, he could go to bed early.

Banquet hall of a hotel in Jinling

Wei Yang turned around and saw Tan Zhuo and Zhang Yu coming over with wine glasses to toast him. They had a good relationship in the crew and had no foundation, so they wanted to stick together for warmth.

"Boss Wei, we both want to toast you and thank you very much for giving us a chance this time."

The gratitude is sincere. "Dying to Survive" has been of great help to both of them, especially Zhang Yu. Wei Yang's support this time can be regarded as the greatest benefactor in his life.

After drinking a glass of red wine with Tan Zhuo, he toasted Wei Yang alone and drank most of the glass of red wine in one gulp, his face turning red.

"Boss Wei, I'm not good at speaking, so if you need me in the future, please give me a call. I'll be here whenever you need me."

The producer next to him admired the young man very much. Hearing this, he said, "You are not a fool. You have already made an appointment for the next play."

When he spoke, Wei Yang actually looked at Zhang Yu and thought for a moment: "Is it a TV series?"

Zhang Yu didn't expect there would be an unexpected surprise, and nodded quickly: "Shoot!"

Wei Yang asked again: "It's not a big role, just a supporting role."

Zhang Yu said directly: "If you ask me to, I will do it even if it means playing a minor role."

"Okay, I'll have someone contact you later."

Wei Yang nodded. He really liked the wildness in Zhang Yu. In the new drama "Chi Le Chuan", he could play the supporting role of a rebellious and fierce military general.

For example, Gao Huan's generals Peng Le and Dou Tai, or the pillars of the Western Wei Dynasty, and the people of the Erzhu clan can also be tried. If all else fails, there are still the rebellious army in Beizhen or the "villains" Gao Huan encountered when he rose.

"Boss Wei, you can't take care of Zhang Yu. If there are any good roles, please consider us brothers."

Zhang Yu got the role, and several other main creators followed suit. Wei Yang did not refuse. All those present were actors he was optimistic about and trusted, so if there was a suitable role, he would naturally be willing to invite them.

I'm just not sure if there will be any schedule conflicts at that time, and whether these people are willing to play supporting roles in a TV series.

Zhang Yu is an unknown young man. His movie "Dying to Survive" hasn't been released yet, but he will definitely take any role if one comes along.

Others have more or less the qualifications, especially Zhang Ze. Nowadays, TV dramas basically choose him to play the protagonist, or at the very least, he is the so-called "Qi Fan" male lead. Supporting roles are really a bit of a waste of talent.

However, Wei Yang's dramas are different. His dramas are often very popular. Increasing exposure is one aspect, but the most important thing is to be able to show off one's face in front of Wei Yang.

Many people are looking for "overqualified people"! Your status and role are just right, no one takes advantage, this is called fair and impartial, Wei Yang probably doesn't know you.

The role you get is greater than your status, which is equivalent to being promoted by Boss Wei. You have to thank Boss Wei, but Boss Wei has helped countless people and may not know you.

Only if your status is greater than the role you play, and coming to film is a disadvantage, and is equivalent to coming to help, will you have a chance to be remembered by Boss Wei.

It's not quite a favor, but it's a token of my gratitude, and who knows if it will be useful someday in the future.

Sometimes, if you want to become one of the big boss’s “own people”, you can’t just rely on others to pull you up, you also have to be determined and find ways to get up.

Wei Yang didn't drink much because he had to go home, and when the toast was almost over, he found an excuse to leave. When he got home, his mother-in-law and Liu Shishi were still awake and were packing up.

After the crew finished filming, they returned to Shanghai and lived there for a few months, so there were a lot of trivial things to do.

The mother, daughter and the nanny have been cleaning up for several days, and now they are focusing on checking for missing items and filling in the gaps.

"I'm back. I'll make you some hangover soup."

When the mother-in-law saw Wei Yang coming in, she stood up and was about to go to the kitchen, but Wei Yang stopped her: "No need, Mom, I just drank a little, it's nothing."

This is not a compliment. For Boss Wei's hotel, this amount of wine is just to whet the appetite, and there is really no need to drink sobering soup.

"It doesn't take much effort, and drinking a little will make your stomach feel better."

The mother-in-law waved her hand and went into the kitchen to make sobering soup for her son-in-law. Wei Yang had no choice but to thank her and accept it. Liu Shishi came over and smelled him, and found that there was not much smell of alcohol on Wei Yang, nor any other suspicious smell. She nodded with satisfaction.

"I thought you wouldn't be back until the early morning anyway."

"You can choose to go to the next session or not, so you don't have to worry about it."

The wrap-up party is not just about eating. Most of the time, there are entertainment activities such as singing, drinking, bathing, etc. Some are organized by the crew, and some are arranged by a few friends.

Wei Yang is quite generous in this regard. Usually the crew will arrange some programs after the wrap party, and he will usually go there to have some fun.

But forget it this time, lest Liu Shishi get suspicious. Sure enough, the latter muttered that she was not a jealous person, but she had a bright smile on her face.

"When are we going back to the Magic City?"

"Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, we can leave once we've packed up."

He was not in a hurry, but Liu Shishi was really bored of staying in Jinling and decided to leave tomorrow.

"Okay, I'll arrange it."

Early the next morning, Wei Yang was woken up by Liu Shishi and helped to pack his things. In the afternoon, he took a private plane and soon arrived at the Magic City Airport.

Before getting off the plane, Liu Shishi wrapped herself tightly, wearing not only a mask, hat, and sunglasses, but also a bulky down jacket.

Wei Yang looked amused and said, "Don't worry, the itinerary is confidential. We are using the VIP channel, so not many people will recognize you."

Although Liu Shishi's pregnancy is a little visibly obvious, it's not particularly noticeable. Slightly loose clothes can almost cover it up, so this is a bit of an exaggeration.

"Didn't you watch the news? There's a Hongqiao lady who's waiting at the airport every day. What if there's a traffic jam?"

Liu Shishi did not comment. She did not want to be on the hot search for no reason. More importantly, if it caused a riot, she would be unsafe as she was pregnant.

“That makes sense.”

Wei Yang also knew this "Hongqiao No. 1 Lady". She would block celebrities at the Hongqiao Airport in Shanghai to get autographs and take photos with them. She attracted a lot of attention and became an Internet celebrity. Many people even took photos of her blocking celebrities.

Even many small stars have come to take advantage of her popularity, claiming that stars who have not taken photos with her are not famous.

However, Wei Yang and the other person obviously do not want this popularity. The other party is a popular internet celebrity and is not someone from the circle, so it is difficult to negotiate with him. It is better to avoid him if possible.

"Let's split up. I'll take a look at the situation. If it doesn't work, we'll make some noise first. You can take this opportunity to wait in the car."

Wei Yang was cautious first and took Wei Fei and a bodyguard with him. As expected, he found someone guarding the place.

There is no way around it. Right now is the time when Hongqiao No. 1 Sister is at her most popular. According to news reports from major media outlets, she has become a hot figure in the entertainment industry this year. It is said that some year-end summaries have listed her as one of the top ten entertainment events.

This person who calls himself a "universal fan" welcomes all celebrities, but his preferences vary.

Wei Yang is one of the stars he most wants to get an autograph and take a photo with. When he was interviewed, he expressed his special hope to meet Boss Wei.

Boss Wei's schedule is kept secret, but the fact that the crew of “Dying to Survive” has wrapped up filming is no secret. Someone even took a photo with him at the wrap party yesterday and posted it on Weibo.

Even though no one is sure when Wei Yang will return to Shanghai and which airport he will leave from, it won't stop this Hongqiao No. 1 lady who is almost treating the airport as her home from trying her luck.

As for the VIP channel, it can indeed block fans to a certain extent, but it is not foolproof.

Especially for those who want to block celebrities, VIP channels are the key targets. Some of them have ways to find loopholes. Now they are popular and some measures of airlines are relatively conservative, which makes it easier for them to act.

After giving a wink to the bodyguard, Wei Yang took off his mask, and deliberately walked through the ordinary passage with Wei Fei wearing only sunglasses and a hat, and then "accidentally" revealed his traces.

As expected, it immediately attracted the attention of Hongqiao's No. 1 Lady and those who were following and joining in the fun, and everyone witnessed the birth of a new hot search event with great joy.

The bodyguard who stayed there, seeing that no one was paying attention, made a phone call. After a while, Liu Shishi and a few others left the airport through the VIP channel in a low-key manner.

It was half an hour later when Wei Yang finished dealing with it. When he came out, a Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle in front of him slowly drove away.

Wei Yang got into the Lexus SUV at the back, and before he even sat down, he heard the driver teasing him.

"That's great. You've tricked the famous Hongqiao No. 1 lady."

"You guys are so free?"

Wei Yang glared at the other person unhappily. The driver was none other than Li Jiahang who came to pick him up at the airport. It was also because of him that Wei Yang simply rode separately with Liu Shishi to make the cover plan more perfect.

"If it was just you, I wouldn't bother coming. Aren't you here to see my godson?"

In addition to Tang Mei, Li Jiahang was one of the very few people who knew that Wei Yang was going to be a father. He had wanted to go to Jinling to visit him before, but Wei Yang thought it would make too much noise and refused.

This time when Wei Yang and his wife returned to Shanghai, as soon as he heard the letter, he came over to see what was new, and even called himself their godfather.

"It's not born yet, what are you looking at?"

When Wei Yang saw Li Jiahang's smiling face, he wanted to punch him in the head.

Liu Shishi is pregnant, Fan Xiaopang is forcing her to have a child, and Wei Yang doesn't know how to explain this to Zhao Liying's parents. He feels a bit stressed.

He couldn't tell these things to others, either because they didn't believe him or because his status wasn't right, so he could only find Li Jiahang to help him relieve his worries.

Finding someone to confide in did help relieve some of the pressure, but the price was that Li Jiahang found out Wei Yang's true colors, and it was a rare opportunity for him to laugh at Wei Yang.

So, even though this guy kept saying that he was here to see the child, Wei Yang felt like he was just gloating.

"You think too little of your brothers. Am I that kind of person?"

Li Jiahang cried out in grievance: "Every time you were in trouble, I always stood by you and helped you. How can you think of me like this now?"

Boss Wei sneered: "If you could stop that smirk on your face, I would believe it."

Li Jiahang instinctively frowned and glanced at the rearview mirror: "Is it that obvious?"

"Damn it, you really didn't hold your fart well."

Wei Yang was furious, then he remembered something and smiled evilly: "Okay, you are willing to stick up for your brother, right? I will tell Li Ying and my parents later that it was you who came up with this idea without telling them."

“…”

When Li Jiahang thought about the consequences of offending Zhao Liying and Wang Yunping, he shuddered and was extremely sad and angry.

"You keep blaming me for everything. Do you believe that if I step on the accelerator, we will both die together?"

Wei Yang looked like a bachelor: "If you have the guts, then go ahead and step on me. Anyway, I have a child, and someone will inherit my family business. What about your wife and your father? You decide for yourself."

“…”

Li Jiahang cursed a lot, but his actions were very honest, and he even drove slower.

When approaching an intersection, Li Jiahang noticed that a Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle was going straight ahead, and he felt a little confused.

"Aren't you going home? Did you take the wrong road?"

"Yes, we moved to a new house. The original house was a bit small."

Li Jiahang was stunned: "That house is only 200 square meters? It's still small?"

"It's not a small place for two people to live in. We have a child now, right? There is also a confinement nanny, a babysitter, and elderly people on both sides. It would be more convenient to move to a bigger place."

"Bigger, how much bigger?"

"Five hundred? Or more than six hundred? I didn't ask in detail."

Li Jiahang was silent for nearly a minute, then he gritted his teeth and squeezed out two words.

"Beast..."
