Chapter 7: An Unpeaceful Dinner (2)

When Jiang Lai returned to the box, everyone was already a little drunk.

As soon as he sat down, Joey leaned over, "Why have you been out for so long?"

"It's a little hot in the box, I'll go out and breathe!"

Joey felt strange: "Why is your face so red when you go out to breathe?"

Jiang Lai immediately touched his face when he heard this: "Is it? Maybe he walked too fast when he came back!"

Joey looked at her suspiciously, decided to let her go first, and talked about another gossip he had just heard.

"Did you know? Something happened to that female number three!"

Jiang Lai frowned: "Who?"

"It's the Zhou Qingtian who temporarily threw the pot and let you nest in the room and change the script for many days. ”

As soon as he said this, Jiang Lai remembered.

"What's wrong with her?"

Joey lowered her voice and said: "Isn't she going to shoot an online drama, the male protagonist suddenly broke out of a scandal of splitting his legs, and as a result, the investor withdrew his capital, and her heroine also failed." ”

"How do you know?"

Joey's eyes rolled, his eyes turned on the director and producer, and Jiang Lai was stunned.

If the source is the director and producer, then the eight achievements are true.

Joey leaned on Jiang Lai's shoulder: "After thinking about it, she was unlucky enough, and took the risk of leaving the female number three, thinking that the female number one was within reach, but she was pitted by her pig teammates." ”

Jiang Lai smelled the smell of wine and turned his head to look at her, "Drinking too much?"

The head on his shoulder gave out a vague "um" word little by little, and rubbed it, "It's okay, it's just that the wine is coming up, a little dizzy, just rest for a while." Lailai, why are your shoulders so sloppy?"

Jiang Lai pushed her head when he heard this: "I haven't thought your head is heavy, and it makes my shoulders hurt!

Joey put his arm around Jiang Lai and didn't let go.

Li Zechen and Liao Qi came in at this time.

She heard the door knock and looked up, only to meet the eyes of the people who had come in.

Thinking of what had just happened in the hallway, she immediately shifted her gaze and pressed Joey's head back.

"Lean on!"

Joey wasn't very drunk in the first place, and when he heard someone shouting "Liao Qi", he still sat up.

Jiang Lai had no choice but to stare at the tablecloth and "pretend to be dead"!

Li Zechen raised his eyebrows, he didn't know what he remembered, turned his head and said something to the waiter at the door, the waiter nodded slightly, turned around and walked out of the box.

Li Zechen walked straight to his seat, sat down and looked at Jiang Lai opposite, and turned the wine glass in his hand.

He hadn't wanted to do anything.

He did drink a lot tonight, and the strength of the wine came up, and his head was a little stuffy, so he came out of the toilet to breathe.

But seeing Jiang Lai's obvious evasion, he took advantage of the alcohol to find out the "festival" that existed between them in the rumors of the outside world!

The effect is significant.

But it seems a bit too much.

He pinched his eyebrows, and when he opened his eyes, he just caught a glimpse of Xia Bai stretching out a spoon to serve the soup.

In the next second, the turntable turned, and the soup spoon fell short.

Li Zechen lowered his eyebrows and quietly withdrew his hand pressed on the turntable.

Xia Bai was originally a little angry, but when he turned his head and saw that it was Li Zechen, he didn't say anything, put down the soup spoon, and chatted with the people around him with a smiling face.

On the other side, Jiang Lai saw a turn in the turntable, but he didn't dare to look up.

After Liao Qi said hello to everyone, he sat down next to Li Zechen, saw Jiang Lai, who had been lowering his head and "pretending to be dead" on the other side, and then looked at Li Zechen, who couldn't see his expression next to him, and raised his eyebrows.

At this time, the waiter knocked on the door and poured a cup of hot water for everyone when he came in.

Jiang Lai was still a little stunned when she saw the hot water, she seemed to want to ask for hot water just now, but then she forgot about it when she met Li Zechen.

Everyone is still a little strange, and they don't know who called this hot water.

I saw that the waiter poured hot water for Li Zechen and asked, "Is there anything else you need?"

"No thanks!"

Only then did everyone know that the hot water was called by Li Zechen.

The assistant director said with a big tongue: "Why do you call water, Zechen is here to drink!"

Li Zechen took a sip of water before saying, "My stomach is not very comfortable and I want to drink some hot water, so I will call everyone by the way." ”

The producer was happy when he heard it: "It's still Zechen who is considerate, my stomach is also burning in a panic, this water is just right!"

Everyone smiled and thanked Li Zechen for his kindness.

He smiled lightly and nodded, as a promise, and glanced at the other side the moment he picked up the cup.

Just this one glance, it was captured by Joey.

Following the line of sight, he turned his head to look at Jiang Lai beside him.

Jiang Lai was drinking water, and the slightly hot water temperature passed through the wall of the cup to the palm of his hand, which also dispelled the cold in his stomach and ironed it very well.

Suddenly, there was a sharp pain in her leg, and her hand shook, splashing a few drops of water.

When I looked down, a hand was pinching her leg, and when I looked down, it was Joey's face with a complicated expression.

"Tell me honestly, what's the situation?"

Jiang Lai didn't know why: "What's the situation?"

Joey's eyes flickered across the board.

She looked down and saw that Li Zechen was listening to Liao Qi with his head sideways, holding one hand on the water glass, and tapping his index finger on the wall of the cup.

Jiang Lai's eyelids jumped, and he retracted his gaze: "What's wrong?"

Joey hooked her neck: "I should ask you this sentence......, right? Well...... What's going on? Is there something going on that I don't know about?"

Jiang Lai looked around and said in a low voice: "Nothing! Don't talk nonsense!"

Joey snorted: "But your expression is very empty!"

"Not really!"

"I don't believe it!"

At this time, Joey was "pressing" Jiang Lai, and Liao Qi was also satisfying his curiosity.

She bent her fingers and tapped the cup, "What's the matter with this hot water?"

Li Zechen leaned lazily on the back of the chair: "Didn't you hear it just now?"

"This 'by the way' shouldn't include everyone, right?"

Li Zechen knocked his finger on the water glass and glanced at her: "It seems that your work is not saturated enough!"

Liao Qi said in a serious tone: "Doesn't this care about you?"

"Not necessarily!"

Liao Qi smiled meaningfully.

Li Zechen has a headache, his agent business is excellent, his ability is super strong, but he also has a gossip heart, which happened to let her see it.

What a mistake!

Jiang Lai couldn't stand Joey's "forced questioning", so he had to promise to tell her after returning to the hotel, so he "escaped!"

"Jiang Lai!"

She looked up in response, and saw the coordinator Sun Bin walking around half the table with a glass of wine, looking a little drunk.

"Old classmate, I heard that you are leaving soon, let's have a drink, and we should see you off!"

When people come to them, the smell of alcohol on their bodies is even more choking.

Sun Bin held on to the back of Jiang Lai's chair and stood firmly: "Old classmate, I don't take good care of you these days, take care of me!"

His voice was not small, and the attention of everyone at the table was attracted.

Jiang Lai had no choice but to stand up, pick up the water glass, and said apologetically: "No, no, I'm very happy with everyone during this time, but I'm allergic to alcohol, so I'll replace wine with water." ”

Sun Bin didn't accept it: "Why haven't you heard that you are allergic to alcohol before?" He looked at the people at the table and said, "I remember when I was in school, you were a good student in the eyes of the teacher, and you didn't talk much to those of us who didn't like to study!"

Jiang Lai still had a faint smile on his face, but it was not as good as his eyes.

When Li Zechen heard Sun Bin's words, his brows furrowed, and his eyes were filled with coldness.

At this time, Joey stood up and touched Jiang Lai's head: "Brother Sun, why are you still turning over the old accounts?" Brother Sun, you look like a fun-loving person, and we look like Lailai is a good baby who only knows how to read, how can I go crazy with you, let alone drink." ”

"During "Mrs. Yunhu", Lailai accidentally drank alcohol and was sent to the hospital that night, with red rashes on his neck, which was scary. ”

Joey said it seriously, and Jiang Lai was still nodding on the side.

The people at the table jokingly advised Sun Bin not to "bully" the screenwriter.

Sun Bin said with a smile: "Then replace wine with water, and the old classmate will go!"

After saying that, drink it all.

Jiang Lai picked up the water cup and took a sip, which was a response.

This little turmoil at the dinner table has finally passed.

Jiang Lai sat down, his patience exhausted all night.

Old classmates!

Finally got out of the way, Jiang Lai followed Joey every step of the way, and now only her side is the safest.

When he walked out of the hotel, Jiang Lai saw Sun Bin who was being held by the assistant director at the front, his eyes rolled and he had an idea.

While everyone was looking for a car, I don't know who shouted.

It was dark, the light was dim, and no one cared.

With a "bang", Sun Bin stepped on the air and slammed on the car door.

The assistant director was startled and wanted to ask him if he was okay, but he heard him mutter, "Mom, I don't dare anymore!"

Hearing this, he was inexplicable, thinking that Sun Bin was drunk and helped him into the car.

--

As soon as Jiang Lai closed the car door, he saw Xiao Ya looking at her with a look of adoration, her eyes full of stars.

"What's wrong with her?"

Joy glanced at her little assistant and said, "She was impressed by your perfect ventriloquism. ”

Xiao Ya nodded wildly, "Sister Jiang Lai, you are so amazing!"

"It's just my usual interest, but I didn't expect it to come in handy!"

Xiao Ya couldn't wait to ask, "Sister Jiang Lai, what did you just say to scare the coordinator like that?"

Joey was also curious: "yes, what the hell did you say?"

"It's just his nickname!"

"It's that simple?"

Neither Joey nor Xiaoya believed it!

Jiang Lai curled his lips and smiled: "I'm using a fucking voice!"

Xiao Ya looked dazed: "Sister Jiang Lai, why are you talking dirty!"

Jiang Lai: "......"

Joey looked at his little assistant, silly and innocent and cute.

Turning his head and saying to Jiang Lai, "Go on!"

"Old classmate, naturally he knows some things that others don't know, for example, what he is most afraid of is his mother. ”

Xiao Ya is the truth: "That's why he reacted so much!"

Joey snorted and looked Jiang Lai up and down: "Your method of retaliating with a tooth for a tooth is becoming more and more hidden." ”

Jiang Lai leaned back in his chair and breathed a sigh of comfort: "How can you return a tooth for a tooth? ”

"Just now I thought you were going to swallow your anger and calm things down. I didn't expect you to have a back-up move!"

Jiang Lai raised his eyebrows: "The moon is dark and the wind is high, the time and place are favorable, how can you be worthy of this beautiful day if you don't do something bad?"

Xiao Ya suddenly said: "Sister Jiang Lai, your current appearance reminds me of an idiom." ”

Jiang Lai and Joey looked back at her.

"The villain has a will!"

Jianglai "......"

Joey: "......"

--

When arriving at the hotel, Joey received a call from his agent.

Jiang Lai said to Xiao Ya and got out of the car first.

Tonight's dinner was so tiring, it was even more tiring than writing a script all night.

All she wanted to do now was to pounce on the bed and lie still.

But as soon as I entered the lobby, I was told by the staff that the elevator was broken and could only be repaired tomorrow.

Jiang Lai walked towards the stairwell as sent a message to Joey.

When I climbed to the third floor, my phone rang again.

As soon as he took out his mobile phone, there was a loud "bang", and the fire door two steps away was suddenly opened, and a person ran out.

Jiang Lai was hit hard.

"Ahh

It happened so suddenly that by the time she reacted, she was already lying on the ground.

The man who knocked her down got up and ran down the stairs in a panic. Only a person in a gray hoodie can be seen.

Jiang Lai tried to move.

"Shhh

The pain made her face pale.

It was quiet in the stairwell, and Joey didn't know when it would come up.

Just as he was thinking about it, Jiang Lai heard the sound of the door opening downstairs.

Footsteps are getting closer, and there is also the sound of high heels.

She thought it was Joey and shouted.

Until someone came to her side in three steps and two steps, she was still a little confused.

How could it be him?

Is this Murphy's Law?

The more you want to hide, the easier it is to meet people.

"What's going on?"

"Jiang Lai!"

Li Zechen helped Jiang Lai up and leaned on him.

"I didn't know that when I got to the third floor, someone suddenly burst out of the fire door and hit me, and I fell down the stairs. ”

Li Zechen suddenly remembered that when he got out of the car, he did see a person in a hoodie running out of the door of the hotel.

He asked softly, "Can you move?"

Jiang Lai nodded: "There seems to be nothing else, it's just that my left ankle hurts!"

Li Zechen lifted his trouser legs, and his ankles were already swollen.

He turned back to Liao Qi and said, "Call Xiaomi and ask him to park the car in front of the hotel!"

Liao Qi nodded and immediately called Xiaomi.

As soon as he turned around, he saw Li Zechen hugging Jiang Lai.

"What are you doing?"

Li Zechen glanced at her, and the meaning was obvious: Can't you see it?

Liao Qi certainly understood what he meant.

But Li Zechen went out of the hotel late at night with a woman in his arms, and tomorrow's headlines must explode!

"I'll let Xiaomi come up!"

Li Zechen chuckled unceremoniously: "Are you sure Xiaomi can hold her?"

Liao Qi: "......"

It seems that it really can't!

Jiang Lai, who had been stiff as wood in Li Zechen's arms, finally had a chance to interject: "That, in fact, I can go by myself!"

Li Zechen glanced at her feet: "Are you sure?"

Jiang Lai said with little confidence: "Isn't there still a good foot?"

"So you're going to jump downstairs on one foot from here and then jump in the car?"

That's exactly what she intended.

But seeing Li Zechen's smiling eyes, he still swallowed his words back.

"Isn't there still a driver?"

Li Zechen's driver saw her last time, and he was sturdy, so it should be no problem to pick her up.

"You're so afraid of me?"

Of course I'm afraid! I'm afraid to make headlines with you! I'm afraid that your fans will eat me!

Jiang Lai said in his heart, still shaking his head on his face.

Liao Qi inexplicably smelled a sweet and sour breath beside him.

Shouldn't going to the hospital be the most important thing now?

She coughed lightly, successfully attracting the attention of both men.

"The car is ready!"

Li Zechen hugged Jiang Lai and went downstairs.

Liao Qi sighed and followed.

No way, who makes the family the boss!

Jiang Lai stiffened, trying to ignore the somewhat hot body temperature coming from the arm behind her, and the breath exhaling from the top of her head.

But the more I try to ignore it, the clearer and stronger these feelings become.

She felt hot in her ears, hot in her back, and hot on the top of her head.

The whole person is going to be burned!

Walking to the safety door on the first floor, Jiang Lai couldn't help but "struggle" for a while: "Why don't you put on your mask!"

Li Zechen stopped: "Do you think it's useful?"

Jiang Lai said without confidence: "It's always useful to cover your ears and steal the bell!"

Suddenly, Li Zechen's clear voice came from above his head: "Then you can help me wear it?"

Then you can help me wear it!

You help me put it on!!

Help me put it on!!

This time, Jiang Lai finally succeeded in scalding himself!
