At eleven o'clock in the evening, Qin Rui's mobile phone rang with a series of WeChat reminders. It stands to reason that no one should be looking for him at this time.

After casually trimming half of his hair, Qin Rui unlocked the screen, and then frowned.

It was the mother who sent a series of voices.

"Ari Ari, Chu Yao hasn't come back so late. I didn't answer the phone, and your dad was dying. ”

"Do you know where she is?"

"You said that since this kid entered the acting academy, he doesn't know what friends he has made outside, and he won't come home at night."

"Did you sleep? If you haven't slept, you can give her a call. ”

Ay......

Qin Rui's mother is not Chu Yao's biological mother, 20 years ago, his stepfather took Chu Yao, his mother took him, and the four of them reformed a family. Chu Yao is 3 years younger than Qin Rui and is in her junior year at the local acting academy, while Qin Rui has been working for three years, although he has not moved out of his home, he almost always lives in the school dormitory.

There is always a kind of rustiness in remarried families, and everyone works hard to maintain a superficial politeness and peace. Because he understands his mother's difficulties, and he is a sister after all, he has always been tolerant of Chu Yao for so many years. The stepfather felt that he owed something to his daughter, so he followed her in everything. Now, this sister is also rude.

Qin Rui's mother has no ability to survive, and the family used to live almost entirely on her stepfather, so she didn't have any right to speak, although she felt sorry for her daughter, but since ancient times, her stepmother was the most difficult to do.

That's probably how maturity comes from. Some people are born without armor, nor are they iron-clad and golden-bodied, but they were taken away from protection by this world early.

Qin Rui thought about it for a while, and he probably knew where Chu Yao would be.

Nanshi is famous for its entertainment industry, and there is a steady stream of young men and girls with star dreams in the surrounding area, and sometimes you can easily bump into a few big-name stars when walking on the street. However, a few years ago, because of the outbreak of indecent photos, several of the more famous clubs in the city center gradually disappeared, and they moved their activities to the suburbs.

Qin Rui didn't care about these, but sometimes Chu Yao was in a good mood and would show off the photos when they met at home. The group photos are all handsome men and beautiful women, and although a few Qin Rui can't call their names, they have often seen them in street advertisements or on TV.

The most recent one was last week, when Chu Yao mysteriously showed her a bookstore, and the store name was "Jiwei".

"Wealth and goods are precious to the big, and those who are famous in politics and religion are the opposite, and those who can accumulate small things will be achieved quickly." Taken from the book of Xunzi.

Qin Rui also praised the store manager at that time for definitely being a cultural person, but he was laughed at by Chu Yao for a long time. Later, I looked at the photos and realized that the bookstore on the first to third floors of the store was just a decoration, the fourth to fifth floors were all emptied as parking lots, and the top two floors were the real entertainment clubs.

"This club is amazing, it's a line to be able to go inside." Chu Yao said unexpectedly, "There are also directors and producers who will also patronize, and ordinary people can't get in." ”

Qin Rui is not very interested, although he also watches movies and TV series, he doesn't seem to care about the entertainment industry, and he doesn't have a particularly favorite idol. After years of restrained life, freedom is what I desire the most.

Seeing that Qin Rui didn't agree, Chu Yao added mysteriously: "Let me tell you, it is said that Xu Shuyou will also come occasionally." ”

Of course Qin Rui knows the name Xu Shuyou, Chu Yao has made up her mind to enter LOWA Entertainment many years ago, and the young owner is Xu Shuyou.

Recalling this, Qin Rui sent a WeChat message back to his mother: "I probably know where she is, you don't have to worry, I'll go find her." ”

"Okay, stay safe yourself." The mother on the other side was obviously holding her mobile phone and waiting for her news, and immediately replied in seconds.

After wiping his hair with a towel, Qin Rui went out.

The "Jiwei" bookstore is not difficult to find, but because it is in the suburbs, it took some time to drive, and it was almost early in the morning when I arrived at the destination. Qin Rui drove into the parking lot on the fourth floor and found that the road to the fifth floor had been set up with barricades, so he had no choice but to stop the car.

Is it really this dark and non-wintery place?

Fortunately, when walking through the fifth-floor parking lot, the scattered luxury cars made Qin Rui begin to believe that he should not be in the wrong place. After walking around, I finally found the only elevator in a hidden corner, and when I went in, I saw that there were only up and down signs on the buttons, and there was no specific floor. When I looked up, I didn't find that there were monitoring equipment installed in the normal elevator.

Probably because you are afraid that the device will be hacked and the video will be leaked? After all, there is a lot of exciting news coming out of the elevator.

I don't know what I'll meet later, and if I can get in smoothly......

As the elevator slowly rose, Qin Rui suddenly had a flash of inspiration, took out his mobile phone and flipped it up.

"Ding-".

The elevator door slowly opened, and a short corridor appeared in front of Qin Rui. The corridor was dominated by an iron door, and on the left and right sides of the door stood two security guards, whose eyes swept sharply for a moment.

Qin Rui coughed lightly, and then straightened his back unconsciously.

"Hello, Miss Chu Yao asked me to send her a mobile phone, she said just show you the photos." Qin Rui said and handed the phone to one of the uncles.

The photo was taken a long time ago when her mother forced them to take it, Qin Rui was holding Chu Yao's clothes and bag in her hands, and she looked like she was completely in her hands, and she didn't know what the eldest lady thought was traveling with the maid.

Chu Yao in the photo is tall, wearing her favorite red dress, big sunglasses on the top of her head, and ethnic earrings looming in her hair. Qin Rui on the side is actually not ugly, he is an ordinary person, because he is thin and small, wearing a T-shirt, and he is clean. But when the two are put together, there is really no trace of the feeling that the two have lived in the same family for almost 20 years.

I don't know if this can be mixed in.

Unexpectedly, the older security guard on the left immediately relaxed when he heard Chu Yao's name, and quickly confirmed Qin Rui's face in the photo: "You are looking for Miss Chu Yao, just enter the door and turn left to the end." ”

"Yes, yes, do you need us to lead the way, I'll take you and I'll take you." The young security guard on the side also came over.

"You kid still want to tip." The older security guard casually threw a chestnut on the top of the other party's head, "Miss Chu Yao has taken care of us so much, are you in the eye of money?" ”

The little security guard rubbed his head a little aggrieved, and Qin Rui sneered: "It's okay, it's okay, I'll send it over and leave immediately, thank you." ”

Two security guards scrambled to push the door open for her.

In an instant, Qin Rui was squinted by the bright light in the room, and the spacious hall behind the door was a golden and brilliant scene, and the huge crystal chandelier was crystal clear, and the breeze that opened the door knocked on each other with a crisp and pleasant sound. The air is filled with a fresh and pleasant fragrance, faintly lingering around, making people feel instantly refreshed.

Who said that the drunken gold is obsessed with copper, and the copper stinks, and the person who said this should really come here to see.

Qin Rui sighed as he walked towards the passage on the left.

Although there are rooms on both sides, you can see that the distance between them is very large, so you can imagine the space in each room. The walls should also be soundproofed, Qin Rui in the corridor can't hear a trace of noisy noise, and the carpet under his feet knows that the price is expensive when he steps on it, unlike the soft and collapsed material in his own home, he can feel the support of the carpet on his feet when he walks on it.

Standing in front of the door of the last room, Qin Rui thought for a while and planned to send a text message to Chu Yao first, it was not appropriate for him to go in directly like this, and he didn't know what was going on inside, so he unlocked his phone again and clicked on the chat interface.

Before the words were finished, the earth-shattering music and the coaxing of the crowd suddenly sounded in my ears, and a warm breath rushed to my face.

Qin Rui raised his head.

Chu Yao was standing in front of him, but he still had a hand on his shoulder.
