After chatting with Liang Jing, Qi Xingchen decided to visit Tao Xuan before going home.
More and more family members came to visit the patients in the corridor. He was afraid of being recognized, so he pulled up the collar of his sweater to cover half of his face. Coupled with the woolen hat, only a pair of dark eyes could be seen.
When he entered the ward, it was not time for the check-up yet. Tao Xuan was eating with the help of the nurse. When he saw Qi Xingchen enter, he put down his spoon and shouted happily, "Brother Xing Xing!"
"Huh?" Qi Xingchen pulled down his collar. "You can still recognize me when I'm covered up like this?"
"Your eyes are different from others. They're darker and brighter." Tao Xuan was probably tired. He rested his elbows on the table and rested his chin on his hands. "Besides, other than you and Jiaze, no one else can visit me."
Every time Qi Xingchen heard this, he felt terrible. At such a young age, he had to bear with the death of both his parents, serious illness, discrimination, and suspension of school. He had to stay in the ward all day long as if he was in prison. His hands were constantly pierced with IV needles …
To be honest, Tao Xuan was much braver than other children to be able to persevere until now.
Qi Xingchen reached out and rubbed his little head. "We're enough. Jiaze is so noisy. Can you handle it if there's another one?"
Tao Xuan's face immediately showed an indescribable expression. He seemed to be deeply hurt. Just as he was about to complain …
His gaze suddenly swept over a slender figure.
The words that were about to come out of his mouth were swallowed back into his stomach. Tao Xuan put down his hands and sat up straight. "Sister."
Sister …
Tao Tao was here?
Qi Xingchen's back stiffened reflexively, but it was only for a moment. He then returned to his natural and relaxed state and turned around.
Sure enough, Tao Tao was wearing a simple coat and jeans. She was standing at the door with no makeup on.
"Sister Tao Tao." Qi Xingchen made a surprised expression. "You're here. Long time no see!"
Tao Tao's eyes widened slightly, as if she was very surprised. "Xingxing, long time no see. I heard from Professor Liang that you've been filming in J City recently. I was planning to visit you when I had the chance. "
When she mentioned Liang Jing, her tone was quite normal, as if they were just ordinary doctor-patient relationships or friends. Qi Xingchen did not expect her to be so shrewd. He raised his guard and replied with a smile, "The snowy scenery in J City is very beautiful. If you come, I'll take you to enjoy it."
Tao Tao exchanged a few more pleasantries with him before calling the nurse over to ask about Tao Xuan's condition. Her words were full of concern. If Qi Xingchen did not know the inside story, he would have been touched by her spirit of taking time out of her busy schedule to visit her brother.
Tao Xuan was expressionless. It was hard to tell if he was happy or unhappy. Or to put it another way, he was numb.
Perhaps he had experienced it too many times and was already numb.
Qi Xingchen squeezed Tao Xuan's hand under the table. Tao Xuan forced a smile at him. He wanted to leave, but when he saw Tao Xuan's smile, he could not bring himself to leave.
"… Sister Tao Tao." Qi Xingchen changed his mind. "Recently, Xiaoxuan has been tutoring my brother. I want to know more about him. Do you mind?"
Tao Tao was stunned for a moment. "I don't mind. I'm not here for anything else. I'm just here to see Xiaoxuan. "
Hearing that he was going to stay, Tao Xuan's mood improved a lot. Qi Xingchen racked his brains to find a topic to talk about. Finally, after half an hour, Tao Tao could not keep up with him. She picked up her bag and said, "I have an event later. I'll leave first."
"Okay." Qi Xingchen said, "Be careful."
"It's okay." Tao Tao got up. "By the way, Xing Xing, there's something I want to remind you of. I heard that you've been hanging out with Brother Ye recently. Be careful not to get caught by the paparazzi. "
It was not a big deal for two men to be close. There were many good buddies in the entertainment industry who hung out every day. However, Tao Tao's tone was ambiguous. She even added the words "don't get caught by the paparazzi."
Qi Xingchen even suspected that there were surveillance cameras in the hotel room and that the fact that he was staying with Bai Ye was exposed.
He was not sure how much truth Tao Tao knew, so he said vaguely, "Thank you for the reminder. I'll be more careful in the future. Otherwise, the media will always say that I'm using Brother Ye's popularity, haha."
"Okay."
Tao Tao responded ambiguously. She looked at Qi Xingchen and said helplessly, "I can't help it. The paparazzi nowadays are too scary. Recently, I've been feeling that someone is following me. It's so annoying. "
Recently, she's been feeling that someone is following her … Qi Xingchen's heart skipped a beat.
— — Did Tao Tao find out that I hired a detective to follow her?
.
On the way back to J City, Qi Xingchen kept thinking about this matter.
With the detective's professionalism, it should not be so easy to find out. Moreover, Tao Tao was an actress and a popular starlet recently. It was normal for her to have a few paparazzi around her. There was no reason to suspect him.
After thinking about it, the only possibility was that Tao Tao was testing him. Fortunately, he managed to fool her at that time. If he had panicked, he would have been easily caught by Tao Tao.
When he arrived at the set, in order to catch up with the progress of his leave, Director Zhou arranged for him to shoot a few night scenes. When he returned to the hotel after filming, it was already past ten o 'clock. He looked around carefully again and did not find anything that looked like a camera. Finally, he was relieved and called Qi Yunxiao.
It seemed that the person who called was his younger brother. Qi Yunxiao, who was about to go to bed, turned on the table lamp. "Xing Xing, you're calling me so late. Are you in trouble?"
"No, Big Brother," Qi Xingchen said. "It's just that I've been having a lot of dreams lately. I've dreamt that there's a problem with our family's business. I feel uneasy and wanted to talk to you."
"The nightmare should be caused by a nervous breakdown. I'll talk to the director tomorrow. You can come back and rest before you go back to filming."
"No, it's really not!" Qi Xingchen said anxiously. "I have a bad feeling. Brother, why don't you check the company? Otherwise, I'll feel uneasy."
Qi Xingchen knew the seriousness of the matter. His tone could not help but have a hint of pleading. Qi Yunxiao's heart was about to break when he heard this. He immediately replied, "Okay, I'll start from the head office tomorrow."
"Also be careful of the villains who tamper with the company." Qi Xingchen continued to remind him.
"Okay." Qi Yunxiao's tone was helpless and doting. "I'll be careful. Don't worry."
Qi Yunxiao had always believed in the principle of "keeping one's word". As long as he made a promise, he would do it. Qi Xingchen's tense shoulders finally relaxed.
Then he continued to make requests. "Oh right, brother, there's also Nuoya. I remember that you set up a fund to buy Nuoya. Can you give it to me? I want to learn about investing. If I don't want to act in the future, I can switch to venture capital. "
"You …" Qi Yunxiao did not know what to say. He sighed. "I can support you even if you don't work for the rest of your life. Don't tire yourself out, okay?"
"Brother, trust me. I can adjust my life and work well." Qi Xingchen insisted.
"Okay …"
Qi Yunxiao could only comply. "I own 60% of the shares of the Stars Asset Management Fund and 40% of the shares of the Qi Group. When the integration is complete, I'll transfer all the shares to your name as a gift. I'll let you know after the transfer."
"Got it."
"The fund only owns 45% of Nuoya's shares now. The net is not deep enough. Be careful when you use it."
"Yes, yes, I will. Thank you, brother."
Qi Yunxiao reminded him a bunch of things such as not to stay up late and to come back to inherit the family property if he could not do it. Qi Xingchen agreed repeatedly. Seeing that his attitude was not sincere, Qi Yunxiao hung up helplessly. Qi Xingchen was quite happy that he had achieved his goal. He jumped into the bathtub and took a good bath.
.
The weather was getting colder and colder, accompanied by heavy snowfall. Soon, it was December 31st.
On the streets, many young couples were dressed to the nines. They walked and discussed where to go for the new year. In the village in the city, which did not fit in with the outside world, aunties carrying meat and cooked food could be seen from time to time. They were probably planning to cook a good meal to welcome the new year.
The Chinese people did not place as much importance on this day as the Spring Festival. However, it was still New Year's Day. After a few sets of filming in the morning, Director Zhou raised his walkie-talkie. "Everyone, take a break. When Dazhuang comes back with the groceries, we'll have hotpot!"
"That's good." Yan Ruonan, who was in his police uniform, quickly put on a blanket. "Hotpot will warm us up for the afternoon shoot. I'm afraid my face will be frozen and I won't be able to make any expressions."
"We won't be shooting in the afternoon," Director Zhou said. "It's New Year's Day. The country has legal holidays. I'll give you guys a day off … Of course, the main reason is that my girlfriend wants to spend the new year with me, hehe."
"Tsk ~ ~ ~"
When they heard about the holiday, everyone wanted to praise him. However, when they heard the reason, the set was suddenly filled with boos.
Only Qi Xingchen did not follow them.
Because Director Zhou's words reminded him.
He hugged the hand warmer and moved to Director Zhou's side. "Director, can I not eat hotpot?"
Director Zhou was a smart person. He instantly guessed what he meant. "Why? Are you going out?"
"Yes, I want to spend the new year with a friend."
"… Friend or girlfriend?" Director Zhou smiled ambiguously. "Okay, go ahead. Come back early tomorrow."
Qi Xingchen's face was hot. He promised to be back on time and hurried away.
Director Zhou was right. He did want to see his girlfriend.
Bai Ye was invited to a certain TV station's New Year's Eve party. He had to film and did not think about New Year's Eve. Now that he suddenly had a holiday, it would be a waste if he did not make use of it.
Moreover, he especially wanted to spend every memorable day with Bai Ye.
It was difficult to buy plane tickets during the holidays. Fortunately, Bai Ye's city was not far from J City. In the end, he asked An Ran to find a car rental company and rented a four-wheel-drive SUV. He was ready to drive there himself.
An Ran was very worried. After several failed attempts to persuade him, she could only choose to spread her hands and let him be.
So, at two o 'clock in the afternoon, Qi Xingchen ate something and got on the highway with snow falling from the sky. The highway was slow in the snow. Occasionally, there would be accidents or breakdowns. There would be a long traffic jam.
When he arrived at his destination, the sky was completely dark.
The New Year's Eve party was held at the city's stadium. He parked the car behind the stadium and called A Lun. "Do you have an employee card?"
The sentence came out of nowhere. A Lun was confused. "Where do you want an employee card from?"
Qi Xingchen said the name of the party. A Lun was stunned for a few seconds. "F * ck, f * ck, f * ck, f * ck, f * ck, Xing Xing, you're not coming, are you?!"
"I'm coming. I'm outside the stadium now," Qi Xingchen whispered. "Don't tell your boss. I want to give him a surprise."
If it were in the past, A Lun would have sold Qi Xingchen out. After knowing the relationship between the two, A Lun was very understanding. He secretly asked for Xiao Man's employee card and picked him up according to the location that Qi Xingchen sent.
There were a lot of stars participating in the live broadcast of the party. In order not to be recognized, the two walked carefully and trembled with fear.
It was not easy to sneak into Bai Ye's lounge. A Lun breathed a sigh of relief and pushed Qi Xingchen in.
"Hey, what are you doing —"
Before he finished denouncing A Lun, Qi Xingchen turned his head and saw the room full of dazed people, as well as Bai Ye, who was doing makeup.
Bai Ye was going to sing a song from his new album today. The style was trap, so his makeup was very clean. He mainly relied on clothes and accessories to highlight his look.
But this man had a kind of magic. As long as he put on stage makeup, he would definitely be a different person from usual. He exuded a strong sense of control from head to toe.
People could not help but worship and submit to him.
Qi Xingchen swallowed the rest of his words. He only had eyes for him.
Bai Ye was no less surprised than the staff. He reached out and motioned for Xiao Man to stop. He strode to him and said, "Director Zhou gave you a break?"
"Yes."
"How did you come? Why didn't you tell me before you came?"
"I drove here myself. Director Zhou announced the break too suddenly. I didn't have time to tell you. "
After that, Qi Xingchen lowered his eyelids and waited for Bai Ye to scold him. However, after waiting for more than ten seconds, he did not hear anything.
He looked up and saw Bai Ye's serious expression, but his eyes were full of gentleness.
It was not that Bai Ye did not know the distance from J City to here. He also knew how long it would take for his little fan to drive here under the heavy snow.
She spent so much effort just to celebrate the New Year with him. He could not blame her no matter what.
"A Lun, go out and buy some hot drinks," Bai Ye ordered A Lun. Then he turned to Qi Xingchen. "Wait for me. I'm almost done with my makeup."
"It's okay. You do your makeup. I'll wait next to you." Qi Xingchen sat next to him obediently.
Xiao Man continued with her work. Qi Xingchen was particularly interested in everything about Bai Ye. He looked around while watching Xiao Man put on her makeup.
Suddenly, he found a box of cold medicine in the junk pile. He asked curiously, "Who has a cold?"
"Boss," Xiao Man immediately answered.
Bai Ye growled, "Xiao Man!"
"Ah? Can't I say it? "Xiao Man immediately apologized." Cut out the part just now. Thank you. "
Unfortunately, they were not filming a show. Qi Xingchen heard every word. His eyebrows instantly knitted together. "When did you catch a cold?"
Bai Ye did not say anything.
"The weather is alternating between hot and cold. Did you catch a cold?" Qi Xingchen asked.
Seeing that he was determined to get to the bottom of this, Bai Ye could only lower his voice. "You infected me three days ago."
Recently, because of Tao Tao, Qi Xingchen had long forgotten about this matter. Now that he was mentioned, he was ashamed, and his ears turned red.
Xiao Man was close to the two of them. She was confused when she heard the conversation. "Xing Xing infected you? Was it when you went to J City, Boss … No, how did the two of you get infected? "
Qi Xingchen thought to himself, "We kissed countless times. It would be strange if we didn't get infected."
However, he did not dare to say that. He tried to fool her. "Maybe we used the wrong cup."
"Yes." Bai Ye glanced at him. "To be exact, we used the wrong toothbrush holder."
After getting the answer, Xiao Man was even more confused. She did not understand why the two of them, one richer than the other, had to use the same toothbrush holder.
Qi Xingchen recalled the scene at that time. He was so shy that he rubbed his hands on his thighs.
Bai Ye was in a very good mood. He admired his shy look for a while. Then, he looked down to see if his little fan had lost weight in the past two days.
He accidentally saw that his little fan's legs were shaking slightly.
Bai Ye had seen this symptom before. When a newbie drove for too long, his feet would be in a tense state of stepping on the accelerator and brake. When he relaxed, he might start to tremble nervously.
… His feet were probably swollen too. Bai Ye sighed and bent down to touch Qi Xingchen's ankle.
It was indeed swollen.
His action was too sudden. Before Qi Xingchen could react, he had already stood up. Qi Xingchen's right foot rubbed the ground and warned him with his mouth, "Don't touch my feet in front of everyone."
Bai Ye was speechless.
Bai Ye ignored him.
At this moment, Xiao Man was done with her makeup. She put down the brush and put her hands on her hips. "Brother Ye, go change into your costume."
Bai Ye nodded and pointed at Qi Xingchen. "I need a helper. Come with me."
In order not to ruin his look, he usually did his hair after changing. Qi Xingchen quickly followed him to the changing room.
He knew very well that Bai Ye did not need a helper. He probably wanted to … take the opportunity to be intimate with him.
Qi Xingchen scratched his neck. He was itching to do it.
As expected, after entering the changing room, Bai Ye locked the door and ordered, "Sit."
Qi Xingchen sat on the chair obediently.
Bai Ye then ordered, "Take off your shoes."
"…" Qi Xingchen was shocked. "No, no, there are too many people here!"
People? Too many?
Bai Ye looked around. "There are too many people here. There are only the two of us."
"We really can't!" Qi Xingchen was anxious. "If someone hears us, we're done for!"
Bai Ye took a few seconds to realize what the little fan meant.
He thought that he was going to do that to him in the changing room.
Bai Ye was so angry that he laughed. He really wanted to explore the little fan's brain. The changing room was a public place. He could not do anything to Qi Xingchen in a public place.
He could not bear to.
Besides … it only took a short time to change clothes. There was not enough time.
There was no time to explain. Bai Ye squatted down and took off Qi Xingchen's shoes.
In order to keep warm during the shoot, Qi Xingchen wore a pair of short military boots. The boots were very loose. Bai Ye pulled them off easily.
Qi Xingchen was even more anxious. "I really can't. Either … or I'll take them off with my hands."
"… Who do you think I am?" Bai Ye took off his socks expressionlessly. "I just want to see your feet."
… See … my feet …
It turned out that Bai Ye had such a fetish?!
Qi Xingchen was shocked for a moment. Then he said embarrassedly, "Okay, okay, then I'll give you full sex."
"…" Bai Ye was completely speechless. He quickly took off his socks.
When he came into contact with the air, his feet felt cold. Qi Xingchen lowered his head and tried to think of the steps to full sex.
When he was in the acrobatic troupe, a group of hot-blooded young men often gathered together to watch the videos that various teachers had selflessly contributed. He was busy with his studies and rarely participated. Occasionally, he would take a look.
He had actually seen such content before.
Just thinking about it made his face burn.
At this moment, his socks were gone. He was just waiting for Bai Ye to take off his pants. He told himself in his heart, "Calm down, calm down."
The next moment, what was placed on his feet was not what he expected. It was two warm hands.
Qi Xingchen looked up and saw Bai Ye holding his feet. He quickly retracted his legs in fear. "I didn't wash my feet. It's so dirty. Let go of me!"
Unfortunately, he was no match for the other party's strength. Bai Ye grabbed his snow-white ankles with one hand and slowly rubbed the arch of his feet with the other. "Don't move. Your feet are swollen. I'll rub them for you."
