TN:
Day 8
He always thought that at that time, Ji Qingzhou really liked him, otherwise how could he be with him behind Chu Cheng’s back, but Ji Qingzhou said that he was just a springboard for him to get Chu Cheng, Fang Yaoxuan couldn’t believe it, “Say it again!”
“Come on, weren’t you and I getting what we want? You think I look like Luo Yuxin and you wanted to use me as a double, although I stayed with Chu Cheng because I owed him money at that time, but he didn’t have any feelings for me, so I cooperated with you and acted in that scene, what are you doing now with such an expression? Weren’t you the one who approached me on your own initiative and wanted to use me as a stand-in? I was just taking advantage of the situation, you started everything, didn’t you?”
Fang Yaoxuan reached out to squeeze his shoulder, but Ji Qingzhou had been paying attention, and when he got close to him, he knocked his hand away and kicked him, Fang Yaoxuan covered his stomach reflexively, and Ji Qingzhou immediately retreated to Zhou Chengfeng’s side.
Sun Ying didn’t understand how they were talking and suddenly started fighting, and quickly went to hold Fang Yaoxuan, “Ji Qingzhou, what are you doing?”
“Why don’t you ask him what he wanted to do just now?” Ji Qingzhou retorted.
Zhou Chengfeng didn’t want to spend more time with Fang Yaoxuan, he asked Xiao Qiao to take Ji Qingzhou to the nanny car, Fang Yaoxuan stepped forward to go after him, but was stopped by Zhou Chengfeng, “Fang Yaoxuan, if you continue to pester him, Ji Qingzhou will stop filming.”
“If you could have stopped filming, you would have stopped filming long ago, why wait until now?”
“Fang Yaoxuan, if you want to talk to Ji Qingzhou, follow his way, first learn to respect him, if go after him like this, you think he will pay attention to you? What’s the point of chasing after him if he doesn’t pay attention to you.”
Fang Yaoxuan smiled, but stopped in his tracks, he looked at Zhou Chengfeng and didn’t respond.
His feelings for Ji Qingzhou were complicated, there was the initial fondness, there was the obsession, and the anger that had just arisen, how could he accept that Ji Qingzhou didn’t really like him at that time, but deliberately used him as a way to attract Chu Cheng’s attention. But then he remembered, after he and Chu Cheng had that argument in the hospital, Ji Qingzhou simply left him and went into Chu Cheng’s arms.

He couldn’t figure out what was going on before. Why did Ji Qingzhou come closer to him then suddenly regard him as a disaster and avoid him? Now, according to what he just said, he was just a tool for him to approach Chu Cheng. So, after what happened in the hospital, Ji Qingzhou saw his position in Chu Cheng’s heart, so naturally there was no need to act with him.
Fang Yaoxuan clenched his fist subconsciously. Well done, Ji Qingzhou was really good. No one ever dared to use him. He dared to use him as a springboard. Well, since he was unkind, he couldn’t be blamed for being unjust. His feelings couldn’t be used that easily!
Fang Yaoxuan clenched his fist and turned around to walk towards his rest area.
Zhou Chengfeng saw him leave, then went to find Ji Qingzhou and reminded him, “You don’t always have to provoke him, talk to him more politely, you’re usually so polite to others, how come when you see him, you’re like a small cannonball, you just want to blow him up, aren’t you afraid of blowing yourself up too ah.”
“I don’t like him,” Ji Qingzhou said frankly, “Him and Luo Yuxin, when I look at them, I get angry, I won’t treat them politely when I see them.”
Zhou Chengfeng felt helpless, he could only silently comfort himself. Who didn’t have a temper? Ji Qingzhou’s temper was good enough. Although they broke up, if something really happened to Ji Qingzhou, according to Chu Cheng’s character, he wouldn’t let it go. He couldn’t control Ji Qingzhou’s anger. Only Chu Cheng could.
After the two people worked on set for a few days, Fang Yaoxuan’s brother-in-law, that was, Fang Zhe, the investor of the crew, came to the studio to see the progress of the filming. In the evening, he offered to invite the crew to have dinner together. Ji Qingzhou originally didn’t want to go, but Zhou Chengfeng advised him, “You have to go, you are the leading actor, he is the investor, if you don’t you go, isn’t this hitting him in the face? Even if there is a contradiction between you and Fang Yaoxuan, you still have to give Fang Zhe face. ”
Ji Qingzhou understood and went with Zhou Chengfeng.
Fang Zhe was dressed in a dark gray suit, he wore gold-rimmed glasses and sat in the main seat in a king-like manner, expressing his thoughts about the filming, and the producer complimented him from time to time, so the smile on Fang Zhe’s face became brighter and brighter.
Most chinese people couldn’t live without alcohol for dinner. Before long, everyone began to propose toasts one after another. Ji Qingzhou didn’t drink alcohol. Zhou Chengfeng knew that, so he first proposed a toast to Fang Zhe and politely said, “Qingzhou doesn’t drink alcohol, so I’ll propose this toast to you for him. Later, he’ll replace the wine with tea, and propose two more toasts to you.”
Fang Zhe wasn’t satisfied, “What? How can you have a meal without drinking, you’re not giving me face ah.”
“Of course not, Ji Qingzhou can’t drink, he gets drunk as soon as he drinks, and he has some scenes to film tomorrow, so he can only use tea instead of alcohol.”
“What was I thinking?” After Fang Zhe finished speaking, he turned to look at Wu Hui. “Director Wu, let tomorrow and the day after be slow for Ji Qingzhou.” Then he looked at Zhou Chengfeng. “You see, isn’t it solved?”
Zhou Chengfeng: ……
Zhou Chengfeng cursed in his heart, he could only put on a polite smile and politely refuse, “He really can’t, I can accompany you to drink two more cups, is that okay?”
“Do I need you to accompany me?” Fang Zhe sneered and looked at Ji Qingzhou, “Is he so precious that he can’t drink a glass of wine, who in the entertainment industry doesn’t drink, one drink won’t kill him.”
Ji Qingzhou looked at the contempt in his eyes and didn’t speak, leaving this matter to Zhou Chengfeng to deal with. He knew how much he could drink, and he knew that once he drank the first cup, he couldn’t refuse the producer’s toast or the director’s toast after that. He didn’t want to get drunk outside, he promised Chu Cheng not to drink in front of others and he didn’t want to make an exception for Fang Zhe.
Although Zhou Chengfeng didn’t know how much Ji Qingzhou could drink, he knew that once the first cup was accepted, he couldn’t refuse anymore, so he simply said: “Mr. Fang, it’s not that I don’t let him drink, Qingzhou can’t drink because Mr. Chu ordered it, I work for Mr. Chu, letting Qingzhou drink with you is easy, but I won’t be able to explain this matter to Mr. Chu. ”
Fang Zhe saw him take out Chu Xin to pressure him and mockingly laughed, “When did Chu Xin start caring about whether his artists drink or not, Western Entertainment has so many artists, can he manage all of them?”
Zhou Chengfeng smiled, but very calmly replied, “If you don’t believe, you can call and ask Mr. Chu, to see if what I said is true, if not, not to mention a cup, he will drink as many cups as you want.”
Ji Qingzhou felt lost and quietly looked at Zhou Chengfeng, he thought the ‘Mr Chu’ Zhou Chengfeng referred to was Chu Cheng, unexpectedly it was Chu Xin. From when he transmigrated to now, he hadn’t actually seen the man more than once or twice, and he had no friendship with him. Listening to Zhou Chengfeng say so at the moment, he felt somewhat guilty.
Fang Zhe was blocked by Zhou Chengfeng. He and Ji Qingzhou had been deadlocked for a few minutes, this time because of Zhou Chengfeng’s words, he had to give up, now it seemed that he was afraid of Chu Xin; but if he really called, if it was as Zhou Chengfeng said, he would be making a fool out of himself.
At this critical moment, Wu Hui and the producer looked at the situation in front of them and advised, “Since it is Mr. Chu’s request, Mr. Fang, you should forget it, Qingzhou has a scene to shoot tomorrow, so it isn’t appropriate for him to get drunk.”
“Yes, Mr. Fang, I’ll accompany you to drink. Ji Qingzhou looks tender. I guess it’s really impossible for him to drink. What’s the point of drinking with him? I’ll drink with you. We won’t get drunk today.”
As they were talking, just as Zhou Chengfeng felt that the situation was getting better, he heard Fang Yaoxuan sneer, “Ji Qingzhou must be really good. I thought you only knew Chu Cheng and had some friendship. I didn’t expect you to have a good relationship with Chu Xin. He even cares if you drink or not. I remember that Lian Jingxing also drinks. It seems that Lian Jingxing is not as important as you.”
Zhou Chengfeng’s face changed, “Whether Jingxing drink or not is his business, it has nothing to do with Ji Qingzhou. ”
“I just feel it’s a little bit weird, even Jingxing as the Western Entertainment’s ace hasn’t enjoyed such treatment, but he can, Ji Qingzhou must be really powerful. ”
Ji Qingzhou listened to his strange words and said indifferently, “It’s none of your business.”
Fang Zhe returned to his senses. He knew Lian Jingxing and his position in western entertainment. He didn’t even have Jingxing’s treatment. How could he care about a Ji Qingzhou? It was nothing more than Zhou Chengfeng’s lie. He smiled and deliberately said, “It seems that Ji Qingzhou is the hope of Western Entertainment. Since it’s like this, I would like to have a drink with Qingzhou even more. No, I must talk to Ah Xin about this young man, who doesn’t drink?”
He picked up the cell phone that was placed on the table and dialed Chu Xin’s number. Ji Qingzhou was a little nervous at that moment, he glanced at Zhou Chengfeng, but he didn’t seem worried at all.
Chu Xin just finished working overtime, as he walked to the underground garage, he heard his phone ringing, he glanced at the caller ID, Fang Zhe. Chu Xin picked up the call and continued walking in the direction of his car.
“Ah Xin ah, it’s me,” Fang Zhe smiled and glanced at Ji Qingzhou, “I say, you are too strict with your artists, how come people want to drink, but you won’t allow it?”
When did he manage whether his artists drank or not? However, his mind was far more meticulous than Fang Zhe thought, his voice remained indifferent. “Who are you with?”
“One of your company’s artists called Ji Qingzhou, I am his current movie’s investor, today I invited them to dinner, I wanted us to drink together, but because of your words, your artist doesn’t dare drink, he is a young man, which young person doesn’t drink? Why do you care so much?”
This is a (I think) worldwide problem. Is it a crime if someone doesn’t want to drink? I think people shouldn’t be forced to drink (or forced to do anything orz) just bc it is their ‘culture’, bc etiquette says so, bc you are superior and want it so blahblah…
I guess the whole family is a bunch of garbage Dx
Thx for the ch (ㅅ˘ㅂ˘)
