July 30th, the premiere of Lone Agent.
"Bro Jae-seok, you're here. Hurry up and go in. Bro Ji Dong is already here!" Xu Zhixuan stood at the door to welcome his friends, especially Jiang Hudong, Yoo Jae-seok, and Jin Jidong. They had given Xu Zhixuan face to reunite as the big three to host this premiere.
Yoo Jae-seok had recently filmed three episodes with Xu Zhixuan, and their relationship had improved. He hugged Xu Zhixuan and said, "Congratulations, but continue to work hard in the future. I won't nag you about other things. You're an old man now, so you should understand!"
"Thank you!" He had sincere feelings for Yoo Jae-seok. Perhaps in the past, he had befriended Xu Zhixuan because of Jiang Hudong. Now, the relationship between the two of them had surpassed that of ordinary friends. They were moving closer to family, so there was no need for superfluous words. You would understand with a simple thank you.
"Okay, I'll go in first. You do your work!" Yoo Jae-seok patted Xu Zhixuan's shoulder and walked in because someone else had arrived behind him.
Before the person arrived, his voice was heard. "Zhixuan, your brother is here. Is there anything to eat? I'm starving! " He had just finished filming and rushed over. After all, Jiang Hudong had agreed to his little brother's invitation without hesitation. After all, there were very few people who could invite him to host outside.
Xu Zhixuan walked up to Jiang Hudong enthusiastically and hugged him. In the entertainment industry, it could be said that Xu Zhixuan had been brought in by Jiang Hudong. If not for his support and connections, Xu Zhixuan would not have been able to progress so smoothly. Xu Zhixuan's poisonous tongue and game showdown on RM had been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people even though it had only been three episodes. RM fans had even given him the nickname "Lion."
"Bro, thank you! There's a buffet inside. Please go in. Brother Jae-seok and Brother Ji Dong are already inside! " Xu Zhixuan couldn't leave now. Otherwise, he would definitely bring Jiang Hudong in himself. Therefore, he could only call for a staff member to lead the way for Jiang Hudong.
Jiang Hudong wasn't someone who didn't know anything. He patted Xu Zhixuan's shoulder and said, "Don't take it to heart. Next time, just treat me to a delicious meal. I want to eat Chinese cuisine. The Hunan cuisine from last time was pretty good!" After that, he didn't wait for Xu Zhixuan's reply and followed the staff into the restaurant.
Suddenly, a cry of surprise came from the crowd outside. Xu Zhixuan looked outside and saw that his teacher, Li Shunzai, had come. His heart felt warm, but more than that, he felt guilty. He jogged forward and helped Li Shunzai up. "Teacher, why are you here?" There was a hint of complaint in his tone. After all, his teacher was old and his health was not as good as before. Therefore, Xu Zhixuan did not invite him to the premiere because he was afraid that his teacher would be tired.
"Let's talk inside!" Surrounded by a group of reporters, Li Shunzai didn't answer. Instead, he led Xu Zhixuan inside and directly ignored the reporters' requests to take photos. Who was Li Shunzai? There were many people in Korea who didn't know, but among the reporters, unless they were rookies who just entered the industry.
"What do you think is the relationship between Li Shunzai and Xu Zhixuan? They seem to be very close. " The crowd was noisy. They didn't hear clearly what Xu Zhixuan called Li Shunzai's teacher. A more experienced reporter nudged the reporter next to him and asked.
The reporter's ears were more sensitive. Although he couldn't hear clearly, he vaguely felt that Li Shunzai's attitude toward Xu Zhixuan was unusual. He pondered and said, "I'm not sure, but there must be a problem. We have to ask our superiors. They are the older generation of reporters, so they should know their relationship."
"Do you guys think that Xu Zhixuan could be Li Shunzai's disciple?" A reporter who was obviously a rookie said whimsically. However, as soon as this remark came out, it was directly rejected by the other senior reporters. Only a few older reporters seemed to be deep in thought.
"Teacher, why didn't you inform me that you were coming? You know that your health isn't good. What if something happened? How could your wife be at ease letting you come out alone? " Xu Zhixuan complained to Li Shunzai. No matter how old he was or how accomplished he was, in front of Li Shunzai, he was just a disciple, a junior.
Li Shunzai listened to Xu Zhixuan's complaints and felt warm in his heart. After all, it was his disciple who cared about him. However, he still kept a straight face and said sternly, "Hey, you little brat. If I wasn't well-informed, I wouldn't have known that your new movie was released. What's wrong? You came back to the country and didn't come to see me. Did you not want to come? "He was a little angry that Xu Zhixuan didn't come to see him when he came back to the country.
"Teacher, you know that I don't want to rely on your prestige!" Actually, Li Shunzai didn't know. Only his wife knew that Xu Zhixuan had come by at night. However, he was already asleep, so he didn't disturb him. He told his wife not to tell him, so he was kept in the dark.
It could be said that Li Shunzai's status in the Korean entertainment circle was even higher than when Xu Zhixuan was his disciple. If Xu Zhixuan carried the title of Li Shunzai's disciple above his head, no matter how great his achievements were, people would only say, "Look, Li Shunzai's disciple is different!" Don't talk about Xu Zhixuan's petty mentality. When he won the Best Newcomer Award in 1998, there were such voices. So at that time, he swore that he would win the Best Actor Award with his own abilities. Then, people would say, "Look, Li Shunzai is the Best Actor Award Xu Zhixuan's teacher. It's just that fate makes fools of people. Xu Zhixuan left the entertainment circle for ten years.
"You, you, really. Bring me in. Come visit when you're free. My wife misses you a lot. Oh right, thank you for finding my mother's grave!" Li Shunzai treated Xu Zhixuan as if he was his own son. He doted on him more than his two sons. Originally, he complained that Xu Zhixuan didn't come back to visit his mother when she passed away. It was only later that he found out that his mother could be buried because of Xu Zhixuan, so he let go of those complaints.
Xu Zhixuan's eyes were a little wet. During the two years that he had been learning acting from Li Shunzai, he would stay at Li Shunzai's house for a few days every week. So, Xu Zhixuan's relationship with the Li family was very close. When Li Shunzai's mother passed away, he couldn't come back. He always felt guilty. He hated it, but he didn't dare because he was afraid that if he came back early, all his plans would be exposed.
"I shouldn't have been filial to my grandmother!"
Li Shunzai also knew that his disciple was a little emotional. Although he didn't know why Xu Zhixuan went abroad, there must be a reason. As for why he didn't come back, he didn't ask. It was fine as long as he stood behind Xu Zhixuan. No matter how strong his future enemies were, he would always be Xu Zhixuan's support.
"Alright, how old are you? Although your grandmother passed away suddenly, she's lived a long life. Oh right, I heard from your brother and sister-in-law that you have a girlfriend? She's also in our circle. Will she be here today? "
Xu Zhixuan stopped crying. Indeed, his grandmother passed away suddenly at the age of 95 due to a myocardial infarction. She could be considered to have lived a long life, but the guilt in his heart didn't lessen. When Li Shunzai mentioned Song Ji-hyo, he answered frankly, "Yes, she will be here. Her name is Song Ji-hyo. She's three years younger than me!" In the past, he hid his relationship with Li Yingai for her sake. Now, it was different. He was thinking about when their relationship would be exposed, so he didn't hide it from those close to him.
"Oh, Song Ji-hyo! I've heard of her. You go to the door to greet the guest. When she arrives, bring her to me! "After Xu Zhixuan brought Li Shunzai to his seat, Li Shunzai waved his hand and instructed.
Xu Zhixuan nodded and agreed. He knew that Li Shunzai wanted to meet Song Ji-hyo. After all, he and Li Shunzai's relationship was similar to that of father and son, so Li Shunzai was more concerned about Xu Zhixuan's girlfriend. After all, the introduction said that Xu Zhixuan wasn't young anymore. Although it was normal for actors to marry late, in the eyes of the elders, getting married early and having children was the most important thing.
