Chapter 9: Whose benefactor?

Seeing him suddenly coughing like this, Xia Xingchi couldn't help being taken aback, his head dazed by the huge sum of money didn't realize that he was the culprit at all.

In order to prevent the beneficiary from accidentally dying on the first day on the job, he quickly got up and patted Li Chengyuan for smoothness.

At the same time, I thought to myself that this person's body is so precious and fragile, so he needs to be taken care of carefully and try to make him live longer.

Li Chengyuan covered his lips with one hand, and pushed him away with the other.

I didn't expect Xia Xingchi to be so flexible. He was obviously terrified of him before, but now for money, he can call her husband casually.

He finally calmed down after coughing for a long time, with an unnatural expression on his face: "Just call me by my first name."

Xia Xingchi noticed that he seemed unhappy, so he resolutely grabbed the shiny golden bank card and put it away before he regretted it.

After being excited for a long time, Xia Xingchi finally remembered to ask the reason: "Li Xian, Li Chengyuan, can I ask why it's me?"

The pies that fell from the sky are too big, and the poisonous ones cannot be eaten.

"I needed a legal partner and you just showed up."

As Li Chengyuan spoke, Summer finally managed to jump on top of him.

This time he didn't drive it away, he just touched its head casually, and it immediately started purring happily, like a small engine.

Xia Xingchi tilted his head. If you need a legal partner, you can marry casually regardless of gender?

It seems a bit too outrageous to solve such a lifelong event.

But when he thought that Li Chengyuan only had half a year to live, he felt that it would be better to be casual.

Otherwise, if he really fell in love with someone, how sad would his lover be after he died?

This idea finally convinced Xia Xingchi that he no longer had any doubts about this pie from the sky, and even felt that he was simply too suitable for this job.

Just as he was thinking happily, he suddenly heard Li Chengyuan say, "Come here."

Xia Xingchi didn't know why, so he got up obediently, walked around the table and walked in front of him.

He couldn't help but look down quietly, and saw Li Chengyuan's slender fingers with well-articulated joints lightly resting on Summer's pure white and flawless soft fur, caressing them casually.

Xia Xingchi looked more and more greedy, and saw Li Chengyuan lift his chin slightly: "Touch it."

-Um? He knows I miss his cat? I'm so obvious?

But most importantly, you can finally rua the big fluffy tail of the cat of your dreams!

With Li Chengyuan around, it was rare for Summer not to have fried hair, but squinting his eyes and lying on his master's lap as if enjoying himself, letting Xia Xingchi's fingers stroke its fluffy and soft fur.

Even pinching the tip of its tail lightly did not annoy it.

Xia Xingchi squatted on the ground happily petting the cat, buried his face in the fragrant fluff, raised his head and sighed contentedly.

In just ten minutes, he got money and the freedom to play cats at the same time.

Is this the joy of having a wife and children on the kang?

"Yeah, I—"

The second half of the sentence got stuck.

Because when Xia Xingchi raised his head, he suddenly looked at Li Chengyuan with a very strange expression.

He's... laughing.

The smile was terrifying, and those dark amber eyes were staring at him intently, mixed with strong emotions.

Like the ecstasy and obsession after getting something you dream of.

Xia Xingchi was startled suddenly, and suddenly forgot what he wanted to say, he just felt creepy, and immediately sat down on the ground.

—I'm going, this horrified expression is really inappropriate for criticizing the villains.

Fortunately, Li Chengyuan also realized the problem, turned his head unnaturally, his expression suddenly restrained, and instantly returned to his usual indifference.

Xia Xingchi's heart was still beating wildly, wondering what happened to him.

It can't be because I **** his cat, so he is not happy.

Or is he always so vicious all the time, and it's not targeting me?

The scene fell into silence for a while.

The two of them didn't speak to each other, they just went on like this until Aunt Li knocked on the door: "Sir, young master, dinner is ready."

Xia Xingchi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that, jumped up and ran downstairs.

.

The dinner was quite sumptuous, and it used to be worth at least a month's worth of his meals.

It was also a coincidence that it was particularly suitable for the taste. The delicious smell of braised pork ribs seduced him, and the weird scene in the study room was finally left behind.

Because of poverty, Xia Xingchi has always adhered to the CD-ROM virtues of "just eat enough" and "eat everything", but in fact, there is a clear distinction between what he likes and what he doesn't like.

The dishes in front of Li Chengyuan were very light, he didn't move his chopsticks immediately, but quietly watched Xia Xingchi eating happily.

The person involved is enjoying the freedom to eat meat without realizing it.

Until the phone vibrated suddenly, he turned around with a small fish in his mouth, and there were two big characters "Lin Meng" on the screen.

It's his manager. He is now a 18th-tier low-key artist, and Lin Meng is an unpopular little manager on the bench. The two are like sisters and brothers.

Xia Xingchi chewed the little fish and thought, yes, I am not a vagrant now, I... ah! It's over!

He finally remembered what the half-sentence that Li Chengyuan's smile had forgotten when he was in the study just now—

He has a commercial to shoot tonight!

I've only been through the book for a few days, and I'm still not familiar with the business, so I completely forgot about my current job.

As a rascal who was secretly crazily run over by "popular idol Xia Yu", Xia Xingchi had countless black fans and scandals before he became popular.

And the pitiful leftover resources, such as this advertisement.

Xia Xingchi quickly answered the phone while thinking about the end.

Lin Meng over there urged: "Xingchi, have you set off yet? Let's go early today."

"Han Ningyu's home court, he is notoriously bullying and afraid of the tough, and he likes to put on a show and challenge the 18th line to find a sense of superiority."

Lin Meng was a manager and an assistant by himself, obviously very busy, hung up the phone in a hurry, and finally urged him to leave quickly.

Xia Xingchi went crazy as soon as he looked at his watch. No wonder she was in a hurry. Let alone early, she might have to step on time to arrive at the shooting scene.

Fortunately, the original owner was forcibly dragged into the entertainment industry by Xia Yu as a control group. It has only been half a year, and he is not as proficient in business as himself.

Otherwise, he would not only forget his work, but he might have to make more jokes.

Xia Xingchi quickly clicked on the taxi-hailing app, praying in his heart that a driver would pick up the order soon.

While typing the location, the screen suddenly went blank, and no matter how hard I poked it, there was no response.

This weather-beaten mobile phone with a broken screen actually went on strike at this critical moment.

Xia Xingchi:...

Why is it that unlucky mother always opens the door for unlucky?

I'm just unlucky!

Li Chengyuan suddenly said: "Go change your clothes, I'll drive you there."

This instantly reminded Xia Xingchi that he was "robbed" back from the engagement banquet, and all his clothes and luggage were in Xia's house.

At this moment, the servants brought a lot of paper bags, all of which were the new seasons of high-end brands. When he opened it, he found that the size was just right for him.

It was a timely gift, Xia Xingchi looked at Li Chengyuan with more admiration in his eyes.

This is more than a big villain, this is a Doraemon.

In fact, like a premeditated engagement, the clothes were also prepared two days in advance.

On the night Xia Xingchi wore the book, when Li Chengyuan woke up briefly and pushed him down on the bed, he already roughly knew his size.

So Secretary Ye got the opportunity to "go shopping by order".

Under the shocked and awe-inspiring eyes of the cabinet sister, she took out Mr. Li's black card and swiped it to experience the legendary joy of booking a room.

Before he had time to choose, Xia Xingchi grabbed a paper bag and rushed into the room. Before closing the door, he ordered:

"You can eat, just lend me your phone and take a taxi."

Taxi drivers do not pass by this mansion, and there is no hope for random taxis on the side of the road.

Unexpectedly, when Xia Xingchi ran out of the room like a rabbit, Li Chengyuan was also fully dressed.

But he didn't even take a bite of the food on the table in the dining room.

Xia Xingchi immediately hesitated: "Wait, you haven't eaten yet..."

His delicate and fragile glass stomach, if he didn't eat any dinner, he would probably fall ill that night.

Li Chengyuan turned a deaf ear to it, picked up the car keys and walked to the elevator in the villa, obviously not to be refuted.

Xia Xingchi had no choice but to shut up obediently, and followed him all the way downstairs, visiting for the first time a vast underground garage comparable to a top auto show.

Probably because he didn't bring a driver, he didn't choose the standard Rolls-Royce, but a rather cool silver-gray sports car.

I don't know the logo of the car, but Xia Xingchi thinks it must be very valuable.

.

"Ancestor, you are finally here! I'm really afraid you won't be able to get a taxi at this time!" Lin Meng hurriedly pushed Xia Xingchi to the dressing room.

The company did not provide him with a nanny car, and the original owner was too poor to buy a car.

Lin Meng, as the dismal manager who was excluded, was no different from Xia Xingchi's miserably.

In the makeup mirror, Xia Xingchi's rather seductive face was reflected:

He has a thick face, with exquisite and bright features, but he doesn't show the slightest femininity. He only makes people feel that the warm sun is dancing, and he is full of youthful vigor.

Lin Meng watched from the side, and the more she watched, the more amazing she became.

Only after a while did I realize—

Good-looking is good-looking, but it seems...it didn't look like this before, did it?

But no matter thinking carefully about Xia Xingchi's original appearance, or looking back at the photos and videos, the three words "Xia Xingchi" always correspond to this face.

Some silent and mysterious changes that no one can detect.

Several people entered the dressing room one after another.

They are all young male artists who conform to the current aesthetics, but they are also unknown and have extremely low social status.

This is an advertisement for a new brand of massage chairs. Since I don't have the money to hire a high-profile celebrity, I have to gather seven gourd babies and try to save Grandpa together.

The only well-known artist was "Han Ningyu" whom Lin Meng had mentioned earlier on the phone.

Because Xia Xingchi looks so good, the makeup was done quickly without much effort from the makeup artist.

Lin Meng glanced out of the corner of her eye, and happened to notice something flickering on his middle finger.

Taking a closer look, she found that it was a blinding big pigeon egg full of diamonds, and she quickly reached out and tapped his finger:

"Pick it up soon. We can't wear this kind of ambiguous style, it will be misinterpreted as love or engagement... and it's too fake and easy to be ridiculed."

Such a large size, if it is really worth several million, but how can Xia Xingchi have such money?

Xia Xingchi was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly remembered this lifelong event, and Sister Lin Meng didn't know that he was already engaged.

As a result, various questions arose one after another:

Can an artist get engaged and get married?

How is the content of the contract written, will it be a breach of contract?

And the most concerned issue for small money fans-whether there will be fines.

Forget it, it's not really love anyway.

Xia Xingchi shook his head, and Li Chengyuan would be gone in half a year at most, one thing more is worse than one thing less.

He took off the ring obediently, Lin Meng nodded, and then went out again in a hurry.

.

Probably due to unfamiliarity, and it would be embarrassing not to recognize each other if the occupation is "entertainer", so although there are more and more people in the dressing room, they don't chat much.

The atmosphere was quiet, when the door suddenly opened earth-shatteringly!

The other party walked loudly, as if carrying the wind.

Disgusted, Xia Xingchi raised his head to look inexplicably, and saw a very conspicuous, strange woman who wore sunglasses at night walked in.

Followed by two assistants, they stand out from the crowd among the lonely eighteen lines.

The "Brother Sunglasses" frowned and looked around for a moment, then asked mercilessly on the spot:

"There's not even a separate dressing room here? Do you want me to squeeze in with them?"

I also specially emphasized the word "they", full of superiority.

Xia Xingchi immediately understood, it seems that this is the protagonist of today's advertisement, Han Ningyu.

The atmosphere was quiet, and of course no one would be annoyed by being posed face to face.

But no one refuted him, some were silent, some even smiled and said hello "Brother Han", others had no choice but to politely follow suit.

As long as everyone here has a little backing, they won't be so confused.

Therefore, even if Han Ningyu is not a big figure, no one wants to confront him head-on.

"Brother Han, your independent dressing room is next door," the staff of the advertising team hurriedly greeted with a smile, "I'll take you there right now."

The person who spoke was polite, but he was also speechless in his heart: How could such a big sign go wrong?

It was nothing more than the fact that the pheasant couldn't wait to show off his prestige after turning into a phoenix. For the sake of his new backer, everyone had to endure it.

Han Ningyu looked at everyone's flattering expressions through the sunglasses, and was immediately very satisfied.

But looking around, he frowned—

In the corner, a young man with a head-to-toe look of the season's luxury brands, not only did not look at him, but kept his head down, playing with a string and a ring.

Han Ningyu's eyes were suddenly unkind, and he stared at Xia Xingchi for a long time, perhaps hoping to threaten him in this way.

The others couldn't help turning their heads to look at him.

The embarrassing thing was that Xia Xingchi didn't respond until Han Ningyu's eyes were sore, and he didn't intend to look at him at all.

Although the harm is not high, it is extremely insulting.

Therefore, when Han Ningyu left, he was extremely annoyed, and closed the door in such a majestic manner, as if he was going to shatter the window glass from the air.

The earth-shattering sound of closing the door fell for a long time, and finally someone couldn't help but said angrily: "Damn! He's the only one with a big face!"

"I heard that Han Ningyu is close to the benefactor. Now the resources are really good, and he has made a lot of money!"

Xia Xiaocai, who was so engrossed in his work just now that he was afraid that his hand would slip and drop the pigeon eggs, finally finished making up.

Hearing the word "money", the radar antenna on the top of the head immediately stood up, wanting to learn how to make more money in this circle.

"Benefactor? Look at the two to five to eighty thousand he pulled. Who is the beneficiary?"

"I don't know, but it must be very rich—I was downstairs just now and saw a Silbert!"

Xia Xingchi tilted his head, wondering what Silbei was.

Someone exclaimed: "My God, that top supercar with a starting price of at least 50 million? I've never seen it with my own eyes!"

"The driver definitely won't drive this car. It's his benefactor who sent him here in person? It's really flattering. No wonder Han Ningyu dared to drag him like this."

The more Xia Xingchi listened, the more shocked he became. The value of a small money fan was shattered several times a day by his ability to make money. How could there really be tens of millions of luxury cars in his life?

Is this made of gold? It can't be offered at a car show. The owner is really willing to drive it?

Anyway, Han Ningyu is really happy, earning money and walking sideways, where can such a benefactor get it?

One of them looked out the window, then took a breath:

"Is that the one you are talking about? His benefactor has not left, but has been guarding downstairs."

Everyone was doing nothing, so they all lay down at the window and looked out

Seeing this, Xia Xingchi also raised his head curiously—

In the vast night, a rather conspicuous silver-gray sports car parked in the dimness, the familiar one couldn't be more familiar.

Xia Xingchi: ...! !

They were talking about Li Chengyuan? !

Someone who was eating melons with relish and completely stayed out of it was stunned, and the non-existent melons were scared to the ground.

--------------------

The author has something to say:

People who eat melons: The car picks up the car, his benefactor is so kind to him, he really loves him, right?

Xia Xingchi: _(:з"∠)_I didn't say it, it wasn't me, I don't know
