Pei Lingxi came to the underground parking lot, sat in the car, and took out the bright film in his pocket, which was handed to him by a female agent after attending a brand party before, saying that if he changed his mind, he would go to her, and her door would always be open for him.

He dialed her.

"Is it Sister Wei? I'm Pei Lingxi, let's make an appointment to meet! ”

After making an appointment to meet in Gu Wei's office, he set off there, like another turning point in his life.

After Gu Wei heard that he was going to quit the group and terminate the contract with Shenghuo Company, she was happy to take over and sign him.

Pei Lingxi said to Gu Wei before signing the drawing: "I have only one request, let me continue to sing on the stage, and the rest is up to you." ”

Gu Wei agreed without the slightest hesitation.

"Don't worry, not only singing, I will make you an international top performer and spokesperson, and the biggest problem now is how to take advantage of the storm caused by your withdrawal from the group."

Pei Lingxi signed it with confidence.

In the next week, Pei Lingxi broke the contract with Shenghuo Company and lost a lot of money, and he also went home to deal with his mother's funeral, two days before he was going to participate in his mother's memorial service, he broke the scandal with Chi Yao on the Internet, and Chi Yao called.

"Chi Yao, what's wrong?"

Chi Yao's somewhat nervous voice came out of the microphone.

"Brother Lingxi, the photos of me and you visiting the mall were exploded on the Internet by the paparazzi, and someone dug up the photos of me and you in high school, and now our scandal is spreading, what should I do? Want to explain? ”

"I'm not in the mood to explain it right now, you can explain it yourself!" Pei Lingxi was packing up his mother's belongings in the house.

"So what am I going to say? Tell the truth? Let's just say that I was just going to the mall with you to pick out gifts, to visit your sick mother, not to date. ”

"No, you can't!"

Pei Lingxi didn't want people to know anything about her mother, worried that someone would make a fuss about his mother's death, his tone suddenly weakened, and he pleaded with her:

"You just say I'm picking a birthday present for you, don't mention it...... My mom, please. ”

"Okay."

Chi Yao was about to hang up the phone, but still asked him: "How is Mother Wei's health now?" ”

"Good."

Pei Lingxi hung up the phone, in his eyes, his mother had never left him, and she had always survived well in his memory.

Pei Lingxi looked at the photo of himself and his mother for a long time and was reluctant to put it down, it was a photo he took with his mother when he received the admission letter from the music school of University A, both of them smiled very brightly, and the brilliance in their eyes seemed to be looking forward to the future.

The day before attending the memorial service, the news of Pei Lingxi's withdrawal from the group was exposed on the Internet, and the Internet exploded again, and many bad remarks pointed to Pei Lingxi, Pei Lingxi received a lot of messages from friends for a while, all asking him if he was okay now? What happened?

Pei Lingxi didn't reply to them one by one, but just posted a message in the circle of friends: I'm fine, don't read it for the time being.

He was preparing for the memorial service, and his agent Gu Wei called in, and he answered.

"Where are you now?"

"Didn't I ask you for two weeks off?"

"Okay, for the next week, you don't come forward, it's better not to even go out of the door, don't say anything, leave it to me."

He hung up the phone, turned around and ran into Pei Youwei.

Father Pei looked at Pei Lingxi's face and said guiltily: "I didn't make a noise at this memorial service, I just brought your mother's relatives before her death." ”

"It's long overdue, at least they'll see her one last time."

Pei Lingxi always had a cold face at him, blaming him for always being so selfish, just wanting to tie his mother to his side, but he rarely cared about his mother's feelings, and he rarely even took her home to see.

Pei's father was even more speechless when he said this, so he had to stand there and watch his son walk by.

On the day of the memorial service, Pei Lingxi didn't cry, he stood beside his mother's portrait, looking at some strange relatives, Wei Ru's mother cried very sadly, she blamed Pei Youwei for being ruthless and indifferent to Wei Ru, so that his daughter would suffer for so long, and he would let his white-haired person send black-haired people.

The other relatives had tears in the corners of their eyes, but they didn't cry, kneeling on the ground, Pei Lingxi looked at them without any expression, because they were all a group of unfamiliar faces, and he couldn't have any emotions towards them.

He spent a long day in a trance, and he didn't eat anything.

After the memorial service, Pei Lingxi returned home, but found many gifts at the door of the house, he took them all into the house, sat on the sofa and prepared to disassemble them.

But when he opened the colored paper wrapped around a pink box, he smelled a fishy smell, he opened the box carefully, but he was startled, and subconsciously pushed it away, and the contents were also knocked over and fell on the coffee table and carpet.

It was a severed finger, which was bleeding bloodily, mixed with the blood of other animals sprinkled on the table and carpet, and there were even many photos of different people committing suicide, which appeared directly in front of Pei Lingxi, and there was even a piece of paper written in bright red blood, which read "Pei Lingxi is dead", and the crooked words were very terrifying!

Pei Lingxi couldn't react from the panic for a while, he didn't know what to do with these things, he immediately left the house, and when he went downstairs, he also looked behind him from time to time, always feeling that there would be terrible people catching up with him.

He drove to a hotel and stayed there, his first instinct was to go to the bathroom to take a cool shower to calm himself down, and then he went back to the bedroom and lay down on the bed, but he could not sleep, the ticking sound of the hands of the living room clock made him open his eyes sharply, look around the darkness, and only after making sure that there was no one, did he close his eyes and take a deep breath.

But the next second there will be the sound of water droplets to wake him up, he doesn't know when he became so sensitive, every time he closes his eyes, he will hear inexplicable sounds around him, and finally he feels that he is about to have a nervous breakdown, he turns on the light in the corridor, and then turns on the TV to the CCTV channel, and adjusts the sound to the appropriate 3 tones, he turns on a lamp at the head of the bed, and after making sure that he can see the surrounding situation clearly at any time, he returns to the bed and closes his eyes.

After making sure that he would only hear the official voice of the TV anchor now, he felt safe and fell asleep.

After that, he found that whenever he was awake at night, he had to turn on the lights and TV to sleep peacefully, and he got used to it, after all, this was the only way to make him feel at ease, and not to think about other terrible pictures.

For a week in the hotel, he drank every night until he was so drunk that he collapsed on the sofa in the living room, perhaps because he forgot these painful moments only when he drank, and self-anesthetized.

After the turmoil on the Internet passed, Gu Wei came to the hotel to find Pei Lingxi, gave him some TV drama scripts and endorsement contracts for brand owners, saying that he had planned his goals for the next year, as long as he did what she requested, he would soon be able to turn over, gain a foothold in the new company, and stabilize his footsteps in the entertainment industry.

Pei Lingxi also did what she said, and Gu Wei arranged for him to be a regular host on her company's newly opened variety show "Happy Together on Sunday", which can maintain a stable exposure rate.

Sometimes Gu Wei will let his assistant Xiao Guo broadcast the hard work he made in private, and he washed a lot of white on the Internet, and he also took two TV series and cameo movies, which won a lot of praise on the Internet and in the entertainment industry, and gradually higher-level sponsors took a fancy to him and chose him as the spokesperson for his own products, so he also had more new fans than before.

But Gu Wei's only unfulfilled promise was to let him continue to stand on the stage, even if Pei Lingxi had mentioned this topic many times, she was trying to get around it, and slowly he stopped proposing it to her.
