Time passed quickly, several lawsuits were successfully settled, Qi Yuan and Xing Chuan also terminated the contract due to expire, and after successfully signing the contract with Yaguang, the work gradually returned to the right track.

It's just that I don't know where the problem is. The car accident in the original plot did not happen. At the strong request of Ning Xingzhou, real-time cameras were installed around Qi Yuan's vehicle. Car hands and feet.

In the same way, Qi Yuan's influence value also stagnated as if the pause button was pressed. In order to successfully complete the task, Ning Xingzhou simply agreed with Qi Yuan, went to apply for the other party's assistant, and ran with him. Run that.

It is said that men who work hard are the most handsome, and Ning Xingzhou takes it seriously. Qi Yuan is worthy of being an actor of the movie king level. Although he has the same face, he has thousands of faces. Can be controlled perfectly.

Ning Xingzhou watched many scenes, and gradually understood why Qi Yuan was so popular and status at such a young age. He was a natural actor. Just eat this bowl of rice.

In addition to filming, Ning Xingzhou will follow Qi Yuan to participate in some less common activities, such as antique auctions.

A few days ago, Qi Yuan bid an ancient jade stone at an auction. It is said to be an antique with extremely high collection value. Qi Yuan finally won it at a price of 3.5 million.

Looking at the white jade, Ning Xingzhou really couldn't understand why this little thing was so valuable, nor why Qi Yuan made a special trip to buy it for collection until——

"Xingxing is willing to be my assistant, I'm very happy." After a day of filming, on the way back, Qi Yuan took out an exquisite box as if offering a treasure, "A small gift for you."

Ning Xingzhou glanced at him suspiciously, opened it, and found that the jade in the box was the jade that Qi Yuan took at the auction two days ago. This jade was obviously polished by an expert. It has become a pendant style, and it is engraved with a lifelike pattern of carp leaping over the dragon gate.

Even an uninitiated person can vaguely understand the value of this jade, not to mention, Ning Xingzhou clearly knows the value of this jade.

This turned out to be just a small gift from Qi Yuan's mouth?

"This is too precious, does my brother really want to give it to me?" Ning Xingzhou asked uncertainly.

"Yeah." Qi Yuan replied in a low voice, his eyes swept across the pendant between the other's neck, and an obscure light flashed in his eyes, "The stars don't need any pressure, money is just a virtual number to me. When I get to this piece of jade, I feel that it is very suitable for you, and I hope you like it."

The warm jade in the box is warm and delicate in texture, the clouds are dense, and it looks bright and translucent.

Ning Xingzhou saw Qi Yuan's calm attitude, and he really liked this exquisite jade pendant, so he stopped pushing three or four and simply accepted, "Since my brother said so, I'm welcome! I like it very much. , thank you brother~"

If Qi Yuan has no concept of money because he is too rich, Ning Xingzhou has no need for money because he has no desire. He knows the distinction between noble and low, but he will not be afraid of it.

"Just like it." Qi Yuan couldn't help laughing when he saw that he was smiling happily, "I specially invited someone to light this jade. Can it be used as a talisman for you to wear?"

"Yeah, I can't tell, my brother is quite superstitious." Ning Xingzhou laughed, putting his hands behind his neck, just about to take off the pendant around his neck, but stopped there abruptly.

Ning Xingzhou hesitated for a moment, he held the koi pendant around his neck, and a look of confusion flashed in his eyes. He seemed to have promised someone to wear this pendant all the time.

Obviously I don't remember who it is, but when I think of taking off the pendant, I will unconsciously feel a little bit of resistance in my heart, which is strange.

Qi Yuan noticed his hesitation, and his eyes were clear. Just as he guessed, the string of tasteless pendants around Ning Xingzhou's neck was given by that nasty **** named Lu Yuan.

Sure enough, no matter how much he hypnotized himself, his heart was still sour. During this time, he never heard Lu Yuan's name from Ning Xingzhou's mouth again, but the traces left by Lu Yuan were still there. He couldn't help being a little nervous, wanting to see how Ning Xingzhou would choose.

Will you find an excuse to reject it? Or as he hoped, discard the old and replace it with the new.

It was only a small gift choice, but Qi Yuan felt like he was facing a big enemy, as if he was sitting face to face with his rival in love, letting Ning Xingzhou choose.

Qi Yuan stared at Ning Xingzhou without blinking, not wanting to miss any subtle expression of the other party, the villain in his heart kept shouting "Choose me, choose me, choose me"! His face was calm, and he couldn't see the sincerity in his heart at all.

But within two seconds, Qi Yuan had an epiphany. Compared with that potential rival, isn't the biggest advantage he has is that he is by Ning Xingzhou's side? Lu Yuan couldn't add fuel to it, but he could.

"Could it be... Is Xingxing unwilling?" He finally couldn't help but ask, his voice faintly trembling, looking inexplicably fragile, as if he was afraid of being rejected.

Ning Xingzhou suddenly came back to his senses, and when he met Qi Yuan's somewhat hurt eyes, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty, and he explained hesitantly: "No, no, of course I want to. It's just that I'm a little nostalgic, and I changed it at first. Yes, I feel a little reluctant."

Having said that, he was still ruthless, took off the koi pendant around his neck, put his head next to Qi Yuan's hand, and waited for the other party to put on the jade pendant for him.

Compared with the inexplicable subconscious, the emotions of the person in front of him are more important. Maybe, as he said, he is just a little nostalgic.

Seeing this, Qi Yuan couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth. He gently put on the pendant for Ning Xingzhou, smugly like a victorious general.

The exquisite quality of jade really matched Ning Xingzhou, and the white-to-green tone made Ning Xingzhou's skin more fair and delicate. Qi Yuan looked at it carefully, and how satisfied he was, he felt inexplicably stamped.

This is the first time he has won a battle with a rival in love. This is a good start. He is confident that he will win every battle in the future.

...

Before the filming of the crew's scenes, Qi Yuan and Ning Xingzhou stayed in the hotel together at night. Under the strong request of Qi Yuan's stalker, they both lived in the same room.

The glass baffle in the shower is so subtle that at first glance it seems invisible, but when the mist rises and a little closer, you can clearly see the outlines.

It's a couple's room.

Qi Yuan was so excited that he tasted pain deeply and was happy. Although he didn't sleep in a bed, Qi Yuan was so excited that he couldn't sleep.

Hearing Ning Xingzhou's long breathing, Qi Yuan felt a very stable sense of happiness in his heart. For him, the happiest thing is probably meeting Ning Xingzhou...

After a long time, Qi Yuan barely fell asleep. I don't know if it was because he didn't adapt to the accommodation conditions here, he didn't sleep well this time.

He had a dream.

At the end of the dream, he kept falling and falling, the gust of wind whistling in his ears, the strong sense of weightlessness accompanied by tinnitus, among the screams of a group of people, there was a "dong" sound, and he didn't even have time to feel the pain, consciousness. It was shattered in an instant.

Qi Yuan sat up abruptly, breaking out in a cold sweat. He rested his forehead for a long time before he walked out of the dream that was too real.

In the dream, he was like a puppet manipulated by others, innocent and lacking vigilance.

Walking on the road, there are knife-like eyes all around, how many people used to love him, how many people hate him now, the girls who used to shout madly brother I love you, seeing him is like seeing dirty The maggots, disgusted eyes are unavoidable, people shout and shout, he is like a mouse crossing the street.

Nobody believed him.

Because he was deceived by his manager, he drank water soaked in poisonous substances. During the drug test, he was found to have poisonous substances in his body.

If you are stupid yourself, you can't really blame others.

It was just those cold eyes that made him understand that the love and love across the screen were like illusory bubbles, too fragile to be attacked.

The promise of "no matter what happens, we will always love you and support you" has become a joke at this moment. Presumably, for them, the indisputable fact that they liked him has become a black history.

Du Min applied for bail for him, and he got a short respite, but his good-looking agent did enough work. In order to ensure that his debt in the underground casino could be successfully passed on to Qi Yuan, he moved on his car. hands and feet.

The days that followed were like a nightmare, and my life was saved, but the sequelae of the car accident really existed. I was suffering all the time. The burns on my face were like being bitten by thousands of ants. It was extremely itchy and painful. , almost crazy.

The boundless pain made it difficult for him to sleep, and for countless days and nights, he could only maintain the faith of living through his hatred for the betrayal over and over again.

He doesn't want any fame or fortune, he just wants those who step on him to pay the price one by one. Whoever pushed him into the abyss, he would pull them down one by one.

It's easy to frame things, but if you want to clear up your grievances, it's hard to get to the sky. He didn't even bother to spend time cleaning himself up, but joined the underworld organization he once disdained without hesitation, living under blood and hatred every day, letting those who betrayed him and framed him realize that life is better than death fear.

But even after taking revenge, the despair and world-weariness in his heart did not ease in the slightest.

He has played the lives of countless people, both sad and happy, but in the end he discovered that he didn't even understand his own life. Everything in the world can no longer affect his emotions.

Even if the manager who had a mental breakdown went to the police station and surrendered himself, the grievances of "Qi Yuan" would be cleared, and the fans who were easily brought to the rhythm cried and repented and begged their brother to come back, all to no avail.

The "Qi Yuan" they once loved has long since died, and now Qi Yuan is just a devil whose heart has been dyed black.

In that fatal accident, he survived with the belief of wanting revenge, and suffered unimaginable pain and despair every day. Now that his revenge has been avenged, he has lost the motivation to live.

On that day, he was on the live broadcast, and the moment he jumped from the tall building, an unprecedented relaxation and relief rose in his heart.

In the dream, he couldn't savor it carefully, but in reality, Qi Yuan really felt the despair.

A nightmare, a complete nightmare.

He closed his eyes, got up and got out of bed, stood quietly beside Ning Xingzhou's bed, stared at Ning Xingzhou's peaceful sleeping face for a long time without blinking.

When he recovered from the nightmare, the indescribable sense of despair was still there, and his heart was beating extremely violently, as if reminding him of what terrible thing he had just experienced.

In fact, for him, the real sense of despair in the dream is not the betrayal by his friends, nor the unbearable pain day after day after the car accident, but—

In the dream, there was no Ning Xingzhou.
