The next day, Qi Xingchen woke up at around ten o 'clock.
He stared blankly at the gift boxes that had nowhere to put them. Then, he brushed his teeth and changed into a simple T-shirt.
He opened the door. Aunt Zhang was carefully wiping the floor in the hallway. Firstly, the expensive floor couldn't withstand too much scraping. Secondly, she was afraid of disturbing his rest.
"Second Young Master."
Seeing him come out, Aunt Zhang stood to the side and made way for him. Qi Xingchen wasn't used to being called that. He whispered, "Call me Xing Xing from now on."
"That's against the rules …"
"It's okay." Qi Xingchen waved his hand. He looked over the mahogany railing to the dining room on the first floor.
The Qi Family Villa was a typical Chinese-style building. Most of the furniture was handmade by carpenters. The dining table was the same. It was made of a whole piece of Phoebe zhennan wood with phoenix tail patterns. It was large enough to accommodate seven to ten people at the same table.
There was a row of porcelain plates on the table. They were covered with a thermal cover, so the dishes couldn't be seen clearly. The original owner's sister, Qi Yuji, was on the phone at the table. The others should have finished eating and gone out.
Qi Xingchen walked down the stairs to avoid leaving footprints. He had to trouble Aunt Zhang to wipe it again.
As soon as he entered the dining room, he heard Qi Yuji's coquettish voice.
"I received an invitation from the brand. I don't want to go."
"Why? Because there aren't many things that I'm interested in this year's High-End Fashion Week. "
"Also, Second Brother was just discharged yesterday. I want to accompany him."
"I knew you were going to say that I'm obsessed with my brother. Forget it. I'll accompany you to Milan … You're awake!"
Seeing Qi Xingchen come down, Qi Yuji quickly waved her hand to signal him to come over and eat. She said into the phone, "I'll ask the hotel housekeeper to choose a room number that you like. You can go there directly when you arrive. I'll talk to you later. I'll call you tonight! "
After that, Qi Yuji quickly hung up the phone. Then, she asked the chef to remove the current breakfast and make a new one.
"Don't bother. I'll make do with it." Qi Xingchen stopped her. "It's a waste to throw it away."
"No, your stomach is not good. You can't eat cold food. Besides, I haven't eaten yet."
Seeing that Qi Xingchen seemed to be curious about why she didn't eat, Qi Yuji explained with a smile, "I was afraid that you would be bored to eat alone, so I waited for you for a while."
Qi Xingchen did not have the habit of lazing in bed. Today, he woke up so late because he had been mentally preparing himself for a long time and did not have a good rest.
He lived in the orphanage until he was four years old. Then, he was adopted by a couple. After a short year, he was thrown into the acrobatic troupe. No matter where they were, when food came, everyone would rush up to snatch it, fearing that they wouldn't be able to fill their stomachs.
No one had ever waited for him just to be his companion.
He didn't know how to answer. After the chef served the new pastries, he lowered his head and changed the topic while eating. "The person who called just now was Zhou Yu, right?"
Zhou Yu was also an artist of Nuoya Entertainment. He could barely be considered as a seventeenth-tier actor. He had appeared in a modeling talent show, which was a little better than the eighteenth-tier actor.
At the same time, he was also Qi Yuji's lover. The two met at a dinner party. Qi Yuji was overwhelmed by his gentleness and fell madly in love with him.
Unfortunately, Qi Yuji had fallen for the wrong person. Zhou Yu only treated her as an ATM and often complained about her being big-breasted and brainless in front of his friends.
The original owner was angry when she heard these words. She had a conflict with Zhou Yu and accidentally fell to the back of her head and died.
In a word, this Zhou Yu was a bitch. However, her sister was blinded by lard and wholeheartedly devoted to Zhou Yu.
What was even worse was that in half a month, Zhou Yu would fall in love with the female lead in a variety show. Qi Yuji, who heard the news, went to find Zhou Yu to confront him. In the end, she was defeated by his words, "You can't even compare to a strand of her hair."
The angry sister kept finding trouble with the female lead from then on. She was extremely vicious and used all the cannon fodder she could. The Qi family officially entered the male lead's line of sight, and the countdown to death officially began.
Seeing that her brother guessed it, Qi Yuji didn't hide it and smiled: "It's him. He asked me to go to Milan to watch a show. At that time, sister will bring you the latest style. By the way — "
She took out a delicate box. "Sister's gift for you to leave the hospital will definitely be better than Dad's. You must be careful in the future. Don't let sister worry, okay? "
Qi Xingchen took it and opened it. Inside was a men's watch with the words RICHARD MILLE engraved on the dial. He didn't know about brands, but he knew that the design must be expensive.
The original owner's family really loved the original owner.
.
Since the core of this body had been changed, Qi Xingchen couldn't let what happened in half a month happen.
After breakfast, he took a taxi to Nuoya Entertainment.
In "Peaches of the Night", Nuoya Entertainment was set as one of the three giants of the media industry. They cultivated many outstanding artists, and the wall of honor was so densely packed that it almost couldn't fit.
Qi Xingchen stood in front of the wall of honor and looked at Bai Ye's photo at the top. It felt a bit unreal.
"Xing Xing, you're back?"
At this time, someone called him from the end of the corridor. Qi Xingchen turned around and saw a boy about his age smiling and waving at him.
This boy was called Han Qing, and he was the original owner's only friend in Nuoya. The reason they were familiar with each other was simple — they were both poor.
His family spoiled the original owner so much that he always felt that his family was restricting him, imprisoning him, and becoming more and more rebellious.
His college entrance exam results weren't good, and he only got into an art college in the country. Not long after he entered the school, he was discovered by his current agent and signed to Nuoya.
In order to prove to his family that he could survive without the Qi family, he made up a fake identity of a working-class family. Until now, everyone in Nuoya still thought that he was just an ordinary child.
In fact, this was convenient for Qi Xingchen. If the original owner had been a rich young master, he might not have been able to imitate him.
"Something came up, so I took two days off." Qi Xingchen tilted his head. "Didn't you have dance practice in the afternoon? Why did you come out?"
"They said it was something important. The agents were all called to a meeting."
Qi Xingchen asked, "The company has a new project?"
"I don't think so. It seems to be related to Bai Ye. Xing Xing, did you go home these two days? "
Go home?
Qi Xingchen looked down. "I don't have a home."
That was the original owner's home, not his.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Han Qing thought that she had touched his sore spot and quickly apologized.
The two of them chatted as they walked towards the practice room. Hearing the two words "Bai Ye" from someone else's mouth, Qi Xingchen's sense of unreality grew even stronger. He gradually realized one thing: the original owner and Bai Ye were in the same company, so perhaps he had a chance to see Bai Ye up close.
Unfortunately, before he could see his fake idol, he saw someone else first. When they passed by the piano room, through the glass window, they saw Zhou Yu pointing at the watch on his wrist and chatting with several people.
Looking at the appearance, it should be from the same brand as the watch that Qi Yuji gave him. It must have been bought by Qi Yuji.
Qi Xingchen's eyes darkened and he grabbed the handle of the piano room. Han Qing immediately stopped him. "Zhou Yu and the others are inside!"
"I saw them."
"Why did you go in when you saw them? Did you forget when we were ridiculed?"
The original owner had ordered the Qi family not to reveal his identity to anyone, so Zhou Yu did not know that Qi Xingchen was the female lead's second brother. He also ridiculed Qi Xingchen and Han Qing for their cheap clothes.
Qi Xingchen raised his eyebrows and ignored Han Qing. He pushed open the door and went straight to Zhou Yu.
As he got closer, he could vaguely hear words like "Milan", "Haute Couture", and "Watch a show". Qi Xingchen cleared his throat. "Ahem, Brother Yu, what a coincidence."
Zhou Yu only realized that there was a living person next to him. He was not happy to be interrupted. "Can't you see that we're using the piano room? Come back later."
"Brother Yu," Qi Xingchen did not move. "Did you just say that you're going to watch a show in Milan?"
Zhou Yu could not help but be surprised. They had just finished a fight and he thought that this person was going to seek revenge. He did not expect him to respectfully call him "Brother Yu". Qi Xingchen had never called him that before.
He was naturally happier to have more people listening to him brag. He pretended to be reluctant. "Yes, the brand asked me to watch a show the day after tomorrow. Every time I go, I have to take a lot of photos. It's very tiring."
"What about your girlfriend?"
"She insists on going with me," Zhou Yu sighed. "She has to buy me this and that. It's so annoying."
Unlike female celebrities, Qi Yuji was a socialite. Being able to find a girlfriend like this indirectly proved a man's charm. In particular, this socialite was crazy about him. She was crazy about him and banged her head against the wall for him. Everyone around them showed envious eyes.
"Is it annoying?" Qi Xingchen's eyes were indifferent. He tapped his chin on his wrist. "Don't you like the new watch?"
Zhou Yu was stunned.
"You're taking someone else's things and saying that they're annoying. There's another way to say this. What's it called again …"
A boy was curious. "What?"
"I remember," Qi Xingchen laughed. "You're a b * tch, but you still want to pretend to be chaste."
Zhou Yu: "…"
His face fell. Only then did his friends realize that Zhou Yu was being scolded. They also stood up and surrounded Qi Xingchen.
Han Qing, who had been standing outside the door, noticed the change in the atmosphere. She was afraid that Qi Xingchen would be at a disadvantage. She gritted her teeth and ran over. "You … What are you doing? There's a video in the piano room. Don't fight!"
When they heard the video, they calmed down. Qi Xingchen knew that they would not dare to make the first move. He pretended to apologize. "I'm sorry, Brother Yu. I said the wrong thing. You're a bigger person. Don't lower yourself to my level. By the way, where's your invitation to Fashion Week? Take it out and let us see. "
Zhou Yu's face darkened. He had planned to take some photos of Qi Yuji's show on the red carpet and post them on Weibo, pretending that he had been invited.
How could he have such good fashion resources?
After being exposed, Zhou Yu's face turned red. His handsome face was distorted like a clown's.
However, he couldn't fight with Qi Xingchen in front of his friends. Wouldn't that mean that he really didn't have an invitation?
"I left the invitation at home." Zhou Yu suppressed his anger. "Who would carry something like that around with them?"
Qi Xingchen replied with an "oh" before turning around and leaving with Han Qing in disappointment.
Before leaving, he said, "Brother Yu, I haven't seen the invitation to Haute Couture Fashion Week. Show it to us tomorrow when you're free."
Zhou Yu: "…"
Looking at his friends' doubtful eyes, Zhou Yu was so angry that the veins on his forehead almost exploded.
.
Judging from Zhou Yu's reaction, anyone who was smart enough could tell that there was something fishy about the invitation.
After leaving the piano room, Han Qing leaned over to Qi Xingchen and said excitedly, "Wow, Xing Xing, you were so cool just now! Did you see Zhou Yu's face? His fake body was about to come out of his nostrils! "
Qi Xingchen shook his head and didn't say anything. Han Qing continued, "I finally got my revenge on him for mocking my clothes last time … By the way, Xing Xing, how did you know that he didn't have an invitation?"
"Xiao Qing," Qi Xingchen said helplessly. "Don't talk behind people's backs."
In real life, Qi Xingchen never liked to talk behind people's backs. Not to mention, he was in the entertainment industry.
"Okay, okay, I won't talk about it." Han Qing waved her hand.
Then, she turned her head and looked at Qi Xingchen. "Xing Xing, you seem to have changed."
"… In what way?"
"I can't put my finger on it. I just feel that you're different from before. Your eyes are brighter than before, and your temperament is also … How do I describe it? You're more serious and not as frivolous as before. "
As long as she didn't notice any substantial differences, Qi Xingchen secretly heaved a sigh of relief and said a few perfunctory words to Han Qing.
"Ahhh — so handsome!"
"Boohoo — Big Brother, please look at me!"
"Bai Ye, I'm your eternal night sky!!!"
"Oh my God, I've seen Brother Ye in real life. I can die without regrets today!"
As they were talking, there was a sudden commotion at the main entrance of the hall, accompanied by the screams of girls and the clicking of shutters.
"Wow, don't tell me that Bai Ye is here!" Han Qing's attention was instantly attracted. She pulled Qi Xingchen and ran over quickly.
But they were still too late. As soon as they arrived at the main hall, they saw several bodyguards escorting a man and quickly passing by them.
The man's side profile was well-defined. He was wearing sunglasses and a baseball cap. His jawline was narrow and sharp. His shoulders were wide, his waist was slender, and his legs were long. His entire person exuded a strong offensive power.
As if he felt that someone was observing him, the man looked over.
It was as if a huge pie had fallen from the sky and hit his head. Qi Xingchen felt that he was about to faint. Tombstones, broken families, and dead people all disappeared.
There was only one thought left in his mind.
— — Transmigrating through books is such a f * cking good thing!
