Chapter 12 Termination
Liu Lili was stunned on the phone, took down the phone and looked at the caller ID again, it was her.
"Nanxing, you...... What's wrong? ”
"Yes." Xu Nanxing didn't want to waste time on these, so he simply opened up and said, "I urgently need money now, and you can take any job in the company for me." ”
Liu Lili originally wanted to call her to talk about it, but she didn't say a few words on the previous phone call and said that she had something to hang up, and she happened to use this phone call to say it.
"Nanxing, I called you just now not only to tell you about "Dream", but I didn't say anything when you said something." She sighed, and continued,
"The news of you and Lin Qingying's boya charity dinner has now spread in the circle, and it was nothing, but someone spread the news that you left crying alone from Furong Residence, and now it is rumored outside, saying that you offended Mr. Gu. You also know what kind of existence the Gu family is in Jingzhou, now not only "Shocking Dreams", but also other contracts that have been signed have also come to say that they want to terminate the contract, I'm afraid that because you ate melons, I have answered no less than ten calls today......"
Xu Nanxing smiled bitterly, "I know." Sister, I'm sorry for you. ”
"Nanxing, sister said something you don't like to hear, if you don't change your temperament, I'm afraid it will be difficult to continue to eat this bowl of rice in the future." Liu Lili sighed again, she really felt sorry for Xu Nanxing.
But at present, the successive terminations of the contract also made her anxious, and she no longer had time to take care of Xu Nanxing's feelings, and the words she said were also a little heart-wrenching.
"I know, Sister Lili, I'm sorry for your trouble." After Xu Nanxing finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
Liu Lili's meaning couldn't be clearer, and when she thought of what Nina said to her, it seemed that she had really offended someone.
Whoever you offend naturally doesn't need to think about it.
Xu Nanxing felt that his heart was becoming more and more depressed, and he reached out and pushed open the window. Outside the window, the leaves rustle, and the moonlight in the distance was obscured by the clouds, revealing a looming silhouette.
It's like her current life seems to be covered with a dense net, unable to break free, and powerless to stop it.
If that hadn't happened, wouldn't it have been all the same?
But there are no ifs in the world, and there are no regrets to talk about, the original choice was made by herself, and she should bear the consequences of those things.
"Nanxing, you can go."
Xu Nanxing turned around, her sister was pushed out by Xiaomei, she walked over quickly and took the wheelchair.
"Sister Nanxing, what did Dr. An say? How's it going? Xiaomei asked with concern.
Xu Nanxing lowered his head and glanced at Xu Xianglan, who was looking back at him, his heart was sour, but he still responded with a smile on his face, "Doctor An said that there is no big problem. ”
Xiaomei hurriedly pinched Xu Xianglan's hand on the armrest, "Sister Lan, just say okay if you look at it." You look so beautiful, if you can really stand up, you must be a big beauty! ”
Xu Xianglan glanced back at Xu Nanxing again, and then said,
"It's good for me to do this, I don't think that far ahead."
Out of the door of the hospital, Xu Xianglan pinched the brake of the wheelchair and signaled Xu Nanxing to stop.
"What's wrong, sister?"
Xu Xianglan looked at her sister's face, raised her hand and touched it before saying, "Have you cried, Nanxing?" ”
The corners of Xu Nanxing's eyes were sour, but he endured it and went back,
"No, sister. The eyes are not very comfortable and rubbed. ”
"Silly boy, what kind of sister you look like will know at a glance." Xu Xianglan pinned a strand of Xu Nanxing's hair that fell on her ear behind her ear, and touched her eyebrows.
"Nanxing, sister is good like this, really. After so many years, I've gotten used to it, and my sister hopes you're happy, don't work so hard because of me. ”
The corners of Xu Nanxing's eyes were a little moist, but he still smiled and said,
"Sister, you don't have to worry about me, I know it in my heart."
Xu Xianglan knew her stubbornness, and touched the top of her head, "Let's go, let's go home." ”
"Okay, go home."
After returning home for dinner, Xu Xianglan saw that Xu Nanxing had something on her mind, so she went back to the room early, and Xu Nanxing also went back to the room.
With nothing to do and feeling bored, she found a pillow and leaned against the windowsill, looking out the window in a daze.
The lights of thousands of homes, each happy, made her so lonely.
The mobile phone rang, she picked it up and took a look, it was Liu Lili's WeChat message.
[Nanxing, what I said is a bit heavy, don't take it to heart. There is no need to be too pessimistic about this, maybe after a while, the limelight will pass, and no one will worry about it. It just so happens that you can also take a break during this time, make up for the professional classes and physical classes intensively, and when this period is over, I will arrange a job for you. 】
Xu Nanxing looked at this passage and didn't know what to reply, it was not her character to say something nice against her will, but if she said what she wanted to say, it was estimated that this little affection with Liu Lili would come to an end.
simply don't reply.
Morningstar's work here was temporarily suspended, but she couldn't help but make money, clicked on the phone's address book, swiped from top to bottom one by one, and finally selected a few who were most likely to introduce her to the show.
Some of them have already heard about the rumors, and they are also asking back and forth, just to ask more gossip from her, so that they can become a self-satisfied talking point, Xu Nanxing was too lazy to continue chatting, and hung up the phone decisively.
In the end, only a performance agent I met as a part-time job in college was left, named Jingming. This person was met when she was performing in an entertainment bar, and she specialized in introducing actors to various bars and performing arts bars, which was considered an intermediary.
The performances introduced by Jingming are expensive, but the requirements are also high, and they are generally in some relatively high-end business occasions. Previously, because Chenxing wanted to create her character, he was afraid that these performances would affect her subsequent development, so Xu Nanxing hadn't taken over the performance from Jing Ming for a long time.
At present, Morningstar's work is stagnant, and she can only find some work that she can do at the moment, otherwise she will wait at home to eat and eat, and when things on Morningstar's side are eased, her savings may have been exhausted long ago.
The phone was connected, and Jing Ming's lively laughter rang,
"Baby, missed me?"
Xu Nanxing was still a little uncomfortable with the title of Jingming, frowned, and said business.
"Xiaojing, do you have a show over there now?"
"Yes, a lot, do you want to come out and pick up the work?" Jingming was very noisy over there, and he guessed which bar he was in when he listened to the sound.
Xu Nanxing waited for the music over there to weaken a little before continuing,
"Yes, I'd like to take on some gigs."
"No problem. There's a one at 'Boiling Point' this weekend, would you like to give it a try? ”
Xu Nanxing knew the boiling point, she had played a fancy piano there before, and the performance cost was considerable, and the quality of the audience was quite high.
She replied without hesitation, "Okay, you tell me the time and clothing requirements, and I'll prepare." ”
"Wait, why are you in such a hurry?!" Jing Ming's voice came over with noisy background music, "I need to dance this time." ”
"I can dance too."
"It's a dance with a little color! Can you? ”
Xu Nanxing bit his lip on the phone, and replied after a few seconds, "Striptease? ”
Jing Ming smiled on the phone, leaned back and smiled, signaled to the person next to him, changed to a quiet place and continued to say to Xu Nanxing,
"Okay, I won't tease you. This performance is an intimate performance, not like you think, but the costumes are indeed a little light, but they don't show their flesh, which is in line with your previous conditions. ”
Xu Nanxing breathed a sigh of relief, "That's okay, I'll rest assured of the work you introduced." ”
"That's nature."
The two chatted a few more words before hanging up the phone.
Xu Nanxing's heart felt a lot more comfortable, at least there was still work to do, regardless of whether it was a regular performance or not, as long as he made money.
She and Jing Ming have known each other for several years, although Jing Ming's personality seems to be giggling, but in fact it is very reliable, what he said is no problem, then she can rest assured. At least it's much better than those black agents outside, saying that it's a regular performance, but people are often asked to do some over-the-limit performances when they go, and what's more, they have to drink with those performance sponsors, and I panic when I think about it.
There is no need to worry about the performance for the time being, she thought about it for a while, and went to the computer to send an email to her senior brother.
Before, she asked her brother to inquire about the prosthetic leg, and the senior brother replied a while ago that there was new information and asked her to take the time to contact her, but she had been very busy for a while, so she didn't bother to contact her brother.
After the email was sent, there seemed to be some things in his heart, and Xu Nanxing felt that even the old desk looked much more pleasing to the eye.
Glancing at the time, the senior brother should be in class, and it is estimated that she will reply after class, so she went out of the room to take a shower.
When I came back from the bath, the mailbox was still empty, and no new emails came in, but a few messages came from my mobile phone, which were the performance time and approximate costume styles sent by Jing Ming, as well as the dance examples of the day, so that she had time to familiarize herself with it in advance these days.
Xu Nanxing clicked on the video and watched it again, it was a peach blossom ballad. She skipped this song when she was in school, and it was not difficult to get familiar with it, and now she hopes that the performance of the day will go smoothly and get the performance fee as soon as possible.
After practicing the video a few more times, Xu Nanxing was so tired that he collapsed on the bed. Before going to bed, all she fantasized about was the success of the performance, and the sound of money coming in her ears sounded.
But she forgot one thing, there is an effect in this world called Murphy's Law.
The more you worry about something, the more likely it is that things will go wrong.
Life is like this, there are man-devouring monsters lurking everywhere, and if you are not careful, you may be torn apart and eaten and wiped clean.
Gu Huaizhi sent Gu Yufei back to Nanshan Villa.
Chen Mingxi had already greeted him when he heard the sound of the car, took the wheelchair in Xu Zhinian's hand, and when Gu Huaizhi carried Gu Yufei to the wheelchair, he pushed Gu Yufei into the door.
Xu Zhinian looked at Chen Mingxi's back and was stunned for a moment.
Gu Huaizhi glanced at him and asked,
"Doesn't it feel like that?"
"Yes." Xu Zhinian shook his head again after speaking, "It's not like it, they are not the same person after all." ”
"It's not the same person, but it's just as scheming." Gu Huaizhi pinched his eyebrow bone and patted Xu Zhinian's shoulder, "You're tired for a day, go back." ”
"Okay, Mr. Gu. I'll pick you up tomorrow morning. ”
Gu Huaizhi waved his hand and walked up the steps.
Chen Mingxi stood in the corner of the corridor and watched Xu Zhinian leave, so he straightened his clothes and went downstairs.
