45. Chapter 45
He Xingbo looked at his son who was lying motionless on the hospital bed, and felt uncomfortable in his heart, but he couldn't help but say, "Are you dead, won't you open your eyes and look at me if you're not dead?" β
He Jincheng slowly opened his eyes, he felt a tingling pain in his forehead, the doctor stitched a few stitches on his head, and said that the skin and flesh were turned out, and the healing time may be very long, with this appearance, he had no way to go to work. He Xingbo turned his head to look at He Xingbo who was standing beside the hospital bed, he felt embarrassed in his heart, so he gritted his teeth and didn't want to speak.
He Xingbo was disappointed, he felt that he was so unsuccessful, how could the two sons he gave birth to not be worth one He Qian, the two sons were there at the time, and he brought two bodyguards, no matter what, he couldn't beat He Qian alone, how much worse is he than his brother? How much worse is his son than his nephew, obviously they are related to the same family, how can the children raised not reach the same height?
If his brother He Yueqi hadn't had an accident at that time, and he wouldn't have been able to sit in his current position, would he not be able to do it alone, and his children would be inferior to others for the rest of his life?
He Xingbo couldn't scold anymore, he just stood dumbfounded, He Qian's side he couldn't hold him accountable, who called his son who did it first, although Li Chengze is an outsider, but he is also an ordinary person protected by the law, Jincheng's son is stupid, if he wants to clean up the disobedient people, can he come blatantly in his own territory......
He Xingbo thought of this, and suddenly asked suspiciously: "Pengyi said that Li Chengze asked you if you also stayed in the hotel at the end of last month, did you do something unseemly?" β
He Jincheng was still clenching his teeth.
"If you don't do it, just tell your dad directly, I'll tell Lee Chengze about it, my dad came forward in person, I don't think he dared not give me face."
He Jincheng held back for a long time, looking at his old father's usually stern face with a worried face at this time, he couldn't be stubborn anymore, so he had to say, "Dad, it's okay." β
"Then you sue me, do you want to bring down Li Chengze, although Dad doesn't know why you did this, but if you really see this person unhappy, he is not our company anyway, I will let Zhang Haoxiang fix him."
He Jincheng explained, "There is no such thing......"
"Then why did he ask you about your whereabouts? What do you have to do with him? He Xingbo asked a few words, and when he saw that his child didn't answer, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, it wasn't Li Chengze, could it be He Qian?
He Xingbo has been busy with work since he was young, and he has never cared much about his children, but he knows that he must love his children, even if they are not as good as He Qian, he has tried his best to cultivate them into talents.
That's right, He Qian is better than his own children, he and his wife know this, and he often uses He Qian to motivate his children.
Look at He Qian, he is the first ......
Look at He Qian, he does everything better than you......
He Xingbo suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, he definitely didn't mean this, no matter how good He Qian was, he couldn't compare to his own child, he looked at He Jincheng with some regret, and asked carefully: "Are you dissatisfied with He Qian?" β
He Jincheng didn't answer, He Xingbo was instantly stunned, stumbled under his feet, and could only sit down on the hospital bed, he felt that he really couldn't educate his children, how could his kindness be misinterpreted by his children.
He Pengyi pushed open the door of the ward and said loudly: "Second brother, I have already called the people below, and he said that he will act according to your orders." As soon as he finished saying this, He Pengyi suddenly found that his father was also in the ward, and hurriedly covered his mouth, but it was too late, He Xingbo stood up, walked over quickly, grabbed the mobile phone in He Pengyi's hand, and asked: "Who are you calling, what did you explain, quickly recruit me from the truth, otherwise I will break your legs!" β
***
After Li Chengze helped Ni Yin here, he planned to leave first, originally going back to the crew first, so he called Su Rui, but the person who answered the phone was Lin Rongyang, Lin Rongyang said on the phone: "Chengze, we haven't seen each other for a long time, you finally came back, how can you say let's go, let's have a meal together, in short, you come to my house first." After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone, not giving Lee Chengze the slightest chance to refuse.
Li Chengze looked at He Qian, he thought about whether to bring this troublesome guy over, He Qian said: "I heard the content of the call, you can watch it." β
Li Chengze had no choice but to say, "Let's go." β
The two took a taxi to the outside of Lin Rongyang's house, Li Chengze rang the doorbell, the door opened, the two walked into the yard, He Qian and Li Chengze were very close, he still remembered the first time he came here, when he had a verbal fight with Lin Rongyang at the gate, and then took Li Chengze away, the second time he ran over the iron door to Li Chengze's room balcony, and the two chatted for a while......
It's not a big deal, and he doesn't need his head to remember, but because he has a good memory, this kind of dispensable thing always inadvertently has to be read many times in his mind.
Before Li Chengze entered the house, he warned He Qian in advance, "Don't quarrel with Lin Rongyang." β
He Qian nodded reverently, "Of course, this is his home after all. β
"Don't even do it."
"I swear." He Qian held up four fingers and made a serious and stern expression, "If I break my oath, I will ......"
Li Chengze listened to him with interest, "What's it?" β
"Quitting the entertainment industry."
ββ¦β¦ No way. β
"No more sex with men."
"That's trying to kill women, no."
"What do you want?" He Qian's anger also came up.
"That's it, every time you talk back to Lin Rongyang, just as I am a day's follower, I say that I am not allowed to be disobedient." Li Chengze knew that this bet was not fair to He Qian at all, and a shrewd person like He Qian would not have agreed, but he just wanted to get over it. Unexpectedly, He Qian said without hesitation: "What is there, I promise you." β
Surprised and surprised, Li Chengze felt that he was becoming more and more incomprehensible, and he was becoming more and more accustomed to the person in front of him staying with him.
Lin Rongyang whistled to open the door, and his face drooped when he saw He Qian, he directly ignored He Qian, and reached out to pull Li Chengze in, "It's so late, Su Rui said that you go to talk about business, and there must not be much food at the dinner table, I asked my aunt to help you make a light table, and we will eat while chatting." β
said that he dragged Lee Chengze to the restaurant.
He Qian followed behind and called "Mr. Lin".
Lin Rongyang originally wanted to ignore He Qian, because He Qian was a friend of Li Chengze, and he was not good at driving people away, but at this time, the other party took the initiative to greet him, and he didn't respond, but seemed narrow-minded, so he had to respond, "Mr. He, you can also come in and eat together." β
Su Rui was setting up the dishes and chopsticks in the restaurant, she saw Lin Rongyang dragging Li Chengze in, followed by a He Qian, she shrugged, went to the kitchen to get an extra pair of dishes and chopsticks, carefully adjusted the position of the dishes and chopsticks, and separated her share from the other three people A long distance, so as not to be angry when there is a riot later.
Su Rui set the dishes and chopsticks, bent down to Lin Rongyang and said, "Mr. Lin, you can eat." β
Lin Rongyang replied with a smile: "You sit first." Then he pulled Li Chengze to sit down beside him, and said coldly to He Qian: "Mr. He, please take care of yourself." β
He Qian sat down unceremoniously as if he was in his own home, he sat on Lin Rongyang's left hand side, opposite Li Chengze, raised his head and smiled at Li Chengze, and scooped a mouthful of porridge with a spoon.
Li Chengze saw that the contents of the spoon were still steaming, so he reminded: "He Qian, blow the food first." He remembered that He Qian didn't seem to be able to eat hot things.
He Qian nodded gently, "I see, thank you." β
Su Rui glanced at Lin Rongyang, who was sitting opposite him, and saw that Lin Rongyang's facial expression began to change subtly, and his whole face changed from a happy smile to a surprised expression, and then an indifferent face.
Suri lowered her head and began to eat her own.
Lin Rongyang didn't expect that the relationship between Li Chengze and He Qian was already so close, he was a little caught off guard, so he deliberately took a chopstick coriander, and buried Su Rui's head lower, Mr. Lin didn't like to eat this kind of thing at all, and he asked the cooking aunt to prepare it to take care of her and Li Chengze, which was too hard.
Lin Rongyang trembled and grabbed the chopsticks and coriander, and was about to fall into his bowl, Li Chengze saw this, picked up his bowl and caught the coriander, and then said to Lin Rongyang: "Don't you eat this, help me clip it?" It's a bit much. β
Lin Rongyang's trembling hand stopped, and he glanced at He Qian's demonstration, He Qian looked at him and smiled slightly.
Lin Rongyang had a sense of urgency in his heart, he looked at Su Rui and Li Chengze, who were only concerned about eating and not caring about other people, so he pretended to reminisce about his youth and began to enter the topic.
"Cheng Ze, do you remember the first time we met?"
Li Chengze raised his head and looked at Lin Rongyang with expectation, feeling that Lin Rongyang was a little strange today, he would not talk like this in the past.
Lin Rongyang told him many times about the first meeting, and he could recite it backwards. So he replied, "Well, it was not long after you went to the United States, and you didn't have any friends at school, so I had a common topic with you, so we talked." β
The fact is that Lin Rongyang was bullied, and he came to the rescue, but it was not good to say this black history to Su Rui and He Qian, and Li Chengze took the initiative to beautify the scene at that time.
Lin Rongyang then asked: "Do you remember when we were in middle school, we secretly went to the senior prom, you and I wore dresses, and there were female students who came to invite us to dance." β
"Remember, you're wearing a white dress." Lee Sung-thaek said in his heart, you should have talked about this matter ten times.
"We also went diving during the holidays and you caught a baby manta ray."
"Then you killed the fish." Lin Rongyang talked about this matter twenty times.
"On the day I returned home after graduation, you promised me that the first thing you would do when you returned to China after graduating from college was to come to me."
"So I'm back." Li Chengze raised his head and looked at Lin Rongyang, he showed a heartfelt smile, even if Lin Rongyang told him about this matter no less than thirty times, but he could feel that the person in front of him sincerely regarded "Li Chengze" as his best friend, and he was now Li Chengze, and he had no reason to live up to Lin Rongyang's expectations.
How much luck does it take for a person to get a true friend, and before he runs out of luck, God sent Lin Rongyang over.
After Lin Rongyang finished asking like a cannonball, he felt a lot happier and a lot better, and turned to speak politely to He Qian, he asked He Qian, "Mr. He, you seem to have a good relationship with Cheng Ze." β
He Qian smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will never compete with you for the first place in the list of friends in his mind." β
Although Lin Rongyang didn't believe what He Qian said, He Qian's words did make him feel more refreshed, so he poured wine for He Qian for the first time, and told him while pouring: "As long as you don't take Cheng Ze to the crooked road, it's easy to say." β
He Qian smiled and asked, "What kind of crooked path are you talking about?" β
Lin Rongyang whispered: "What are those unspoken ^ rules, go back ^ door, don't do unclean things, my Lin family is not worse than your He family, he wants to make a movie, just look for me for lack of investment, there is no need to accompany investors to drink and eat." β
When He Qian heard this, he said, "You are reluctant, and I am reluctant." β
Lin Rongyang nodded, he suddenly felt that He Qian was not so annoying, but at the end he still added, "But the paparazzi in your entertainment industry like to chase after the wind, you and Cheng Ze got closer, and the rumors came, some time ago Su Rui showed me entertainment news, saying that it was the entertainment news that broke the news that you have a relationship with some male artists that are beyond friends, I think these people, they just have nothing to do, they can make up anything, Jin Jianshu was out of the shadows for two years in the early years, and there was gossip that he died......
Lin Rongyang was almost impressed by his IQ, after he said this, he glanced at Li Chengze proudly, and added: "I am Cheng Ze's best friend, Mr. He, you can only be ranked second." β
Li Chengze felt moved, and he wanted to hold his forehead a little, although he knew that Lin Rongyang's private life was very clean, and there was only one marriage partner who had not yet been officially engaged, but Lin Rongyang's "pure Cheng dΓΉ" still opened his eyes.
Su Rui squirted a few vegetables from her mouth, she buried her head deeper, trying to restrain herself from laughing, she wanted to embed her face in the rice bowl, and her whole body trembled with laughter. Her boss is a good person, and his professional knowledge is absolutely passable, and his business skills are also very good, but she never thought that Mr. Lin was as pure as a blank sheet of paper in terms of feelings.
He Qian looked at Li Chengze's helpless expression, he smiled quietly, then picked up the small porcelain cup containing liquor, and said to Lin Rongyang: "Mr. Lin, I wish us a successful reconciliation, come and have a toast." β
Lin Rongyang was on the rise, he said: "Cheers, cheers!" β
The two cups collided, making a crisp sound, and He Qian said slowly: "The first position of my friend will be given to you, and the rest of the positions will be left to me." β
Lin Rongyang poured wine, he was a little confused, he asked, "What?" β
He Qian said: "I mean, I invite you to go fishing when you have time, there is an artificial lake on the other side of the street, and the scenery is not bad." β
"Sounds good, then I'll wait for you to be free, let's go and see." With the strength of the wine, Lin Rongyang suddenly wondered why he hated He Qian so much before, and it turned out that he was not a very bad person......
Lin Rongyang was very happy, the first was to make sure that Li Chengze was still his best friend, and the second was to find out that He Qian was not as insidious and cunning as he imagined, so when Li Chengze was with him, he could rest assured.
He was so drunk that when Lee Sung-taek and He Qian moved him upstairs and put him back in his room, he was already too tired to do so.
A drunk person is far more difficult to serve than a fainting person.
Li Chengze helped Lin Rongyang fold the quilt and beckoned He Qian to leave, He Qian glanced at Lin Rongyang who was lying on the bed, and suddenly grabbed Li Chengze's arm and said.
"Dear."
Lee Song-taek knew that he couldn't speculate on He Qian's actions in the way of ordinary people's thinking, but this request was too outrageous, and he refused, saying, "It can't be here." β
He Qian said: "Don't you feel the pleasure of stealing ^ love? β
"He's my friend, and in theory it's not cheating^."
"And what are you afraid of?"
Li Chengze looked at He Qian intently, and the other party's eyes shone with wonderful brilliance in the light. He Qian also drank some wine, his face was slightly red, and at this moment he even showed a flirtatious smile, his hands were already on Li Chengze's waist for some time, and his abdomen ^ was ^ tightly ^ close ^ to ^.
Lee Sung-taek's mouth was dry.
He stretched out his head slightly, his mouth ^lip ^ covered ^ cover ^ on ^He ^ Qian ^ lips ^, and then he felt He Qian's fingers grab the clothes on his back hard, Li Chengze is also a man, and he also has affection, he is not a monk who meditates and participates in meditation, after feeling the heat behind him, his arm is also tightly encircled by He Qian.
The shadows of the two of them tightly ^tightly ^glued^ together were stretched by the lights in the room and projected onto the bed where Lin Rongyang was lying.
Until a few months later, Lin Rongyang didn't want to recall that night, he drank too much wine, and had a dream at night that his best friend hugged ^ kissed a man.
When he woke up the next day, the first thing he did was to make an appointment with a neurologist to see if he was tired from work, cranky thoughts, auditory and visual hallucinations.
***
A month after returning to the crew, most of the scenes had been completed, and the crew began to shift filming locations and return to the studio to shoot some palace scenes.
Li Chengze has been paying attention to He Jincheng's situation during this time, and he occasionally called He Pengyi, and He Pengyi replied: "The second brother is still lying in the hospital." β
In fact, He Jincheng's trauma had already healed, but he just couldn't accept that he was a department manager and appeared in the company with a bandage on his head.
After He Pengyi reported on his second brother's situation, he asked cautiously: "He Qian didn't embarrass you, did he?" β
It seems that He Pengyi really thought that he had a very bad relationship with He Qian, and Li Chengze took the opportunity to say: "You should know He Qian's temper better than me, he will treat you brothers like that, maybe he won't treat me like this, but now that our film is not finished, he is not good at being rude to me, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to the crew and other investors." β
He Pengyi's tone revealed concern.
"Then what should I do, you also saw it that night, He Qian is like a mad dog, we have enough of him at home!"
Lee Song-taek asked: "He often beats people like that at home?" β
He Pengyi said: "Yes, once I just accidentally took a look at my aunt's makeup box, and he beat me, but my aunt is dead, and it's useless to keep that little thing, not to mention it's not worth much, one of my bracelets is worth more than her whole box." β
"......" Li Chengze can already imagine that He Pengyi is still arrogant when he touches He Qian's mother's things, he doesn't know what to say, he can only say: "It's really wrong to beat people." β
"That's it, yes, He Qian is bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, and the second brother has hated him for a long time."
Li Chengze remembered He Jincheng's expression of longing for He Qian's death, and suddenly had an eyebrow in his heart, so he pretended to say casually: "Don't talk about your second brother, I can't get used to He Qian's behavior, the last time his hand was scratched, I felt very happy." β
When He Pengyi heard this, his tone was obviously excited, and the boulder in his heart also fell to the ground, and sure enough, Li Chengze was from their side, and he said: "Yes, my second brother is happier, so he deliberately ...... when you did a live show with He Qian that day"
He Pengyi should have found that he had slipped out of his mouth, and there was a sudden silence in the earpiece.
Li Chengze suddenly heard this key information, and he didn't want to miss this clue, so he asked loudly: "Pengyi, are you still there, Pengyi?" β
He Pengyi paused for a long time on the other end of the phone before he asked carefully: "Brother Cheng Ze, you don't know what I was talking about just now, right?" β
Lee Song-taek deliberately smiled and said, "I know, I think you did a good job." β
"Really?" A sigh of relief came from the earpiece.
"Really, also, I want to ask you to dinner at night, I don't know if you are willing to appreciate your face."
"Huh?" He Pengyi actually doesn't like Lee Chengze's type, but it's not bad to try, he said: "Okay! I'll do the hair, you send me the address. β
Lee Song-taek hung up the phone, strung together the clues he had obtained during this time, and felt that the truth was almost as he had speculated, and now only evidence was needed.
It's not the first time he's dating a man, he often goes out to dinner with He Qian, but He Pengyi is an appearance association, and dressing well should be more able to win the favor of the other party.
After Lee Song-taek finished his work, the first thing he did was to go to the mall to pick out clothes, he tried to find clothes that matched He Pengyi's preferences, and finally picked out a very youthful set to change into, and then flicked his hair in the mirror, and covered his forehead with bangs - it looked like the effect was okay.
When he drove to the restaurant agreed with He Pengyi, He Pengyi also happened to get out of his car, and he was pleasantly surprised when he saw Li Chengze for the first time!
Lee Sung-taek, who always had an expression that others owed him a lot of money, wore a very different look today, jeans, Martin boots, and a jacket, all according to his preferences.
He Pengyi trotted over and grabbed Li Chengze's arm, and said with a smile: "Then let's go in." β
He Pengyi ordered a few vegetarian dishes, and he said to Li Chengze: "I've been a little fat recently, and I want to lose weight." β
Li Chengze smiled softly: "It's okay, you are in good shape, too thin others will feel distressed when they look at it." β
He Pengyi has never spoken to him so gently at home, and every friend he makes outside is for his money, but Li Chengze doesn't want his money, he feels very happy, so he opens the menu again and says, "Then I'll order another steak." β
Li Chengze looked at He Pengyi's cheering appearance, and he tried his best to say in a casual tone: "You told me on the phone before that when He Qian was doing a live show, your second brother called as a netizen to ask questions on the spot?" β
When He Pengyi heard this question, he was a little nervous, and looked at Li Chengze with his shoulders, Li Chengze smiled and stretched out his hand and pushed the cup with water to He Pengyi, "Don't be nervous, drink some water, does this matter have anything to do with you?" β
He Pengyi shook his head violently, "Of course not, I don't dare, He Qian will kill me." β
"It's all your second brother's doing?"
ββ¦β¦ Right. β
"Aren't you afraid to tell me this?"
"Don't be afraid, anyway, you won't sue He Qian, last time you were crushed by the shelf in order to save He Qian, and the plaster on your leg was wrapped for a week, He Qian didn't even look at it." He Pengyi said this, as if he was incarnated as a messenger of justice, fighting for Li Chengze.
Lee Chengze was a little stunned, and he asked, "Don't you know about the bookshelf?" β
He Pengyi innocently asked, "What's wrong with the bookshelf?" β
"It's okay, eat first, and we'll go see the night view later."
Li Chengze watched He Pengyi happily eat all the dishes on the table, he touched the voice recorder in his trouser pocket, took it out and looked down, the green light flashed, and he was still working.
