Chapter 63: Scandal
Instead of getting into trouble, it is better to protect yourself wisely, which is the way to survive in this circle.
The little assistant lowered his head, and his face was still hot and painful.
"What's wrong with your face?" Tong Lu, who had just come back from leading Tong Shuangshuang to the bathroom, looked up and saw her flushed cheeks.
Hearing Tong Lu's voice, the little assistant took several steps back as if he had heard some urging horn.
Tong Lu was stunned, and looked down at Tong Shuangshuang for some unknown reasons, facing her ignorant and blank eyes.
Is she that scary......
"You ......" Tong Lu took a half step forward, but in exchange for the little assistant's even more frightened look.
The hand in mid-air paused, and Tong Lu suddenly remembered who this girl was.
Long Xue's assistant?
Thinking about this, Tong Lu understood. He pursed his lips and smiled, didn't say anything more, and turned to leave.
The little assistant stood in place, his head lowered, his hand holding the water cup kept tightening, and he didn't say a word in his heart until the end.
He looked up and blinked, hiding the warmth in his eyes, and walked straight into the dressing room.
Long Xue was the only one in the dressing room at the moment, sitting on a chair with a gloomy face, wearing beautiful makeup, but there was no color in her eyes, with a terrifying dead silence.
"Sister Xue, your water."
Long Xue didn't speak, and didn't even move his eyes. Silence and coldness spread in the air, as if they were about to engulf people.
I don't know how long it took, Long Xue's faint voice came, "Give me your phone." ”
The five words, like a hand suddenly stretched out in the dark swamp, grabbed her leg and dragged her into the suffocating mud.
The little assistant pinched the corner of his clothes, his palms were soaked with cold sweat, and he handed over his trembling mobile phone.
Long Xue raised her eyebrows, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, and kept swiping her fingers on the screen. After a long time, the white fingertips lightly clicked on the dial key.
"Hello?"
The hoarse male voice permeated the near-stagnant air through the inferior loudspeaker.
"I have a message here, are you interested?" Long Xue deliberately lowered her voice.
He smiled, seemingly unimpressed, "You can tell me first." ”
"About Tong Lu and her financier." Long Xue adjusted her seat, and the cruelty in her eyes looked even more terrifying in the shadows.
"With whom?" The man was a little interested.
Long Xue's fingertips lightly tapped the table, "You have to follow this yourself, City A Film and Television City, if you want headlines, come here." ”
After saying this, Long Xue hung up the phone directly.
Lying on her back on the chair with her eyes closed, the corners of Long Xue's mouth hooked up a triumphant smile.
At this time, Tong Lu was reading the script outside, Gu Chuan was sitting quietly next to her, and the two children followed Zhang Ze's buttocks, so they had to look at the big horn in his hand.
"Aren't you going to work today?" Tong Lu lowered her head, a little uncomfortable stared at by Gu Chuan's somewhat scorching gaze, coughed lightly, and asked.
Gu Chuan smiled lowly, "There's nothing to do today, the company doesn't need me." ”
Jiang Fan, who was passing by, twitched his lips when he heard this, and at a certain moment, he really wanted to drop the thick pile of documents falling on the desk on Gu Chuan's face.
"Is it okay to be absent from work without an excuse?" Tong Lu raised her head, with a rare cunning in her eyes.
Gu Chuan raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his eyebrows and eyes were dyed with a smile, "So what, who dares to care about me." ”
When the words fell, Tong Lu just wanted to say something, when he saw Zhang Ze walking over with a gloomy face.
"What's wrong?" Tong Lu stood up.
"That's all for today, you can take the child back to the hotel to rest first." Zhang Ze pursed his lips, his brows tightly locked, and his eyes were full of irritability.
Tong Lu was a little confused, so she looked at the staff who were disassembling the scene not far away, "Why?" Is something wrong? ”
Raising his hand and pinching the sore eyebrows, Zhang Ze covered his forehead with one hand and sneered, "Queen Long Daying is not ready to shoot again." ”
Sighing lightly, Tong Lu glanced at the tightly closed door of the dressing room and rolled her eyes, "Okay, then I'll go back first, what should you do?" ”
"I'll talk to the investors about it." Zhang Ze waved his hand and called the assistant director, "You go over and tell Long Xue that I'm giving her one last chance and asking her to come out for me to film!" ”
Zhang Ze's voice was full of coldness, and there seemed to be endless ice edges hidden between the words, flashing with cold light.
Seeing that Zhang Ze was busy, Tong Lu didn't say anything, lowered her head and picked up Tong Shuangshuang, "Let's go." ”
"Is Mom off work?" Tong Shuangshuang was lying on Tong Lu's shoulder, and there was a horn as big as her head hanging around her neck.
"yes, it's time to get off work." Tong Lu's clear voice is also dyed with a bit of innocence.
The black eyes turned around twice in their sockets, with a little expectation, "Then can I go back with Shuangshuang and Niantong's brother?" ”
"But mom ......" Tong Lu opened her mouth and wanted to refuse, but under the gaze of those sparkling eyes, she couldn't say anything when the words came to her mouth.
"Let's go back together, I'll take them away in the evening." Gu Chuan, who had been standing beside him, suddenly spoke, his voice was very soft, but with a bit of firmness, and he couldn't refute it.
Tong Lu pondered for a moment, looked down at Gu Niantong, who was looking up at him, and still relented, "Okay." ”
The hotel is not far from the crew, so a few people didn't take the car, and they were slowly preparing to walk back. Tong Lu wore a pair of exaggerated sunglasses, covering half of her face and a thick hat on her head.
Gu Chuan looked at her dress and couldn't help but smile, "Aren't you hot?" ”
Tong Lu helped the sunglasses that slipped down the bridge of her tall nose, and her tone was a little unconsciously soft, "It's hot, but there's no way." ”
Gu Chuan raised his eyebrows, suddenly stopped, and tilted his head to look at her.
Tong Lu's already fair cheeks were flushed with a touch of heat because of the heat, and under the illumination of the golden warm sun, her skin looked even more like condensation.
Tong Lu was stunned, her blank eyes blinked, and she was a little confused.
Suddenly, she raised her hand, and before Tong Lu came back to her senses, the hat on her head fell into Gu Chuan's hand.
"What are you doing!" Tong Lujiao said angrily.
"Since it's hot, don't bring it." As he spoke, Gu Chuan put his mind on Gu Niantong's head.
The covering on the head is gone, and a cool breeze blows across the forehead, bringing a slight coolness.
Tong Lu frowned, "But ......"
"No, but!" Gu Chuan grabbed Tong Lu's arm with one hand and held it in the palm of his hand.
Two people led the child one left and one right, a group of four, under the reflection of the sunset, a little more warm and peaceful. And not far behind, a man looked at the photo in the camera, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.
By the time the four of them returned to the hotel leisurely and finished eating, it was already close to nine o'clock. Looking at Tong Lu's obviously sleepy eyebrows, Gu Chuan left with the two children.
"What time will it start tomorrow?" After sending Gu Chuan, Tong Lu threw her whole person on the bed.
It's like the only way to lie down like this can relieve the pain in your back when you wake up.
Xiao Hong made up the messy bed, "Four o'clock tomorrow morning." ”
This point in time was obviously beyond Tong Lu's expectations.
She wailed and pulled the quilt over her head, unwilling to believe it.
"It's better to go to bed early, I'll call you tomorrow morning." Xiao Hong's cool voice broke Tong Lu's illusion, and as she spoke, she closed the door and went out.
Although Tong Lu didn't have a few scenes today, she was a little tired all over her body.
The slender calves kicked on the soft quilt, but in the end they didn't insist on getting up to brush their teeth and wash their faces, so they fell asleep on the bed.
Early the next morning, it was not Xiao Hong's knock on the door that woke Tong Lu, but the piercing ringtones of the mobile phone that rang over and over again.
Tong Lu fumbled for her mobile phone in the dark, looked at the unfamiliar number flashing on it, and her head was stunned for a moment.
Why do you call her again from so many numbers you don't recognize......
Knocking on his head that was a little painful, Tong Lu woke up for half a minute and hung up the phone.
The bell stopped abruptly, and the room returned to its previous silence.
"Open the door!"
Just as Tong Lu was guessing what was going on, the doorbell suddenly rang, accompanied by Xiao Hong's anxious voice.
Tong Lu sat up from the bed, and the uneasiness in her heart suddenly came like a wave.
Get out of bed quickly and open the door.
"Is something wrong?" As soon as Tong Lu opened a crack in the door, Xiao Hong immediately squeezed in, and then quickly locked the door.
"Did you pick up any calls today?"
Before Xiao Hong's words fell, Tong Lu's mobile phone rang again.
It didn't sound for a few sounds, and Xiao Hong snatched it away and unloaded the battery.
"I didn't answer." Tong Lu frowned, raised her hand and turned on the light.
Xiao Hong was still wearing pajamas at this time, her hair was tied messily behind her head, and her face was a little more flustered.
"That's good." Xiao Hong breathed a sigh of relief.
Tong Lu looked at the phone with a black screen and clenched her fists, "What's wrong?" ”
Xiao Hong sat on the sofa, raising her hand to support her forehead, her eyebrows full of sorrow.
"In the middle of the night last night, a marketing account suddenly exposed the relationship between you and Gu Chuan, saying that you were his adopted lover, and also exposed clear photos, and now your name is all on the hot search."
Tong Lu's heart shrank suddenly, pursed her lips, and only found her voice after a while, "That's ...... What is the company going to do? ”
"The company has been meeting overnight to discuss, and there is no result yet."
"Then I'......" Tong Lu was now in place, with unprecedented helplessness.
Xiao Hong covered his face with his hands, and there was a lot of helplessness in his tone, "Don't respond for the time being, wait for the company's results." ”
Tong Lu opened her mouth, but when it came to her mouth, the words seemed to be choked in her throat, and she couldn't say anything, so she could only nod.
