Rebirth Turn - Chapter 30
Lu Yan followed Mu Xiao to a nearby bar. There were not many people in the bar at this time, and the two of them habitually found a corner seat to sit down.
The bartender quickly brought the wine. Lu Yan only wanted a glass of ordinary beer, and Mu Xiao ordered a prepared “Blue Mood”. Hearing the name, he felt that the degree would not be too low.
Mu Xiao shook the light blue wine in the glass and drank it one by one, his eyes gradually blurred.
Lu Yan looked at it coldly, he only took a sip of wine at the beginning and didn’t touch it again, and didn’t speak. Anyway, it’s not him who really has something to say, he can afford to wait.
As time passed, the number of guests in the bar gradually increased, and Mu Xiao’s wine was already the third glass. She hadn’t spoken yet, and Lu Yan was not in a hurry, but her thoughts returned to the scene she just saw in silence.
It seems that the two have been together for a while. I don’t know how they met each other this time. The most important thing is who took the initiative…
Lu Yan was thinking about it, but Mu Xiao suddenly spoke up. Lu Yan couldn’t help raising his brows at the first sentence.
“At that time, I thought that the person who would make me lose my love should be you.” The blur in Mu Xiao’s eyes had faded as she spoke, the corners of her mouth were smiling, and her tone was like a joke, but Lu Yan knew that she was absolutely insane. Not kidding.
Lu Yan didn’t answer, he believed that the other party didn’t need him to say anything.
Mu Xiao continued, “I met him for the first time after I joined the crew, and he asked me, how are you? He looks very interested in you. I haven’t been with him the longest, and It’s not very short, and it’s not that no one else has embraced him before, and he didn’t accept it. Although he is romantic, he has the advantage that when he is with a person, he is absolutely loyal. He Always end a paragraph before starting another one. Every woman, when faced with an emotional prodigal like him, will fantasize that she will be his last, and I am no exception. So when I detect his interest in you , I feel angry and scared. I really love him.”
Lu Yan naturally knew who he was referring to in the words.
Having said this, Mu Xiao smiled apologetically to Lu Yan, “So at that time, my attitude towards you was very unfriendly, I hope you don’t take it too seriously, please be considerate of a woman who is caught in an unstable love. Unreasonable.”
Lu Yan thought that this woman was indeed not simple, and she never forgot to make the most beneficial choice for herself at any time. He didn’t doubt the sincerity of Mu Xiao’s desire to befriend him at this moment. People like Mu Xiao would not easily have bad relations with others, not to mention a person like Lu Yan who is in full swing and has an unpredictable future. Since she took the initiative to show weakness, even if Lu Yan was not such a generous person, it would be hard to care about her anymore.
However, Lu Yan is not a person who is willing to be easily led by the nose. It is not that if you say you are bad, you will be evil, and if you say good, you will be good, so he just smiled and didn’t express his position.
Mu Xiao obviously knew what to do when he saw it, and he took up the topic by himself, “Actually, when I was with him, I had already anticipated today’s ending. Speaking of which, I didn’t suffer, we were together. At that time, he was very kind and gave me a lot of help, so let’s each get what we need. I’m just a little unwilling. Speaking of which, I’d really rather let you be the one who broke my love.”
As Mu Xiao spoke, a pair of watery eyes looked at Lu Yan.
Lu Yan was moved, and said lightly, “Can I think you are provoking?”
Mu Xiao didn’t hide her intentions. She knew that Lu Yan was a smart person, so she couldn’t be fooled. She put away the amorous feelings in her eyes and gently tucked her hair, “That’s fine. But I accidentally accidentally Hearing that kid mention you, he doesn’t seem to be very convinced by your current development.”
Lu Yan didn’t believe Mu Xiao’s words very much, because he knew that Xu Yongzhou was not a simple person, and it was even less possible for him to publicly show his dissatisfaction with people in a better situation than him when he had no absolute strength.
But Lu Yan also had something he wanted to ask Mu Xiao, so he didn’t expose her, “Then you know how they… um, did they come together?”
Mu Xiao chuckled, “Are you trying to talk about hooking up? It doesn’t matter, I think so too. I probably know a few things, but I don’t know the specific details, but it seems that Xu Yongzhou took the initiative to come to the door, so shameless.”
Lu Yan sneered in his heart, this woman is really careful, most of the people who are with Su Jue are sent to the door by herself, I am afraid that she herself is no exception, but she is here to call others shameless.
But Lu Yan finally asked the answer he wanted, so he didn’t have the patience to accompany her sadly, raised his hand and looked at his watch, “It’s getting late, do you want me to take you back?”
“No need,” Mu Xiao smiled, “you go first, and my assistant will come back to pick me up.”
Lu Yan nodded, stopped acting like a gentleman, got up and was about to leave.
“Anyway, thank you. After telling you this, I feel much better.” Mu Xiao suddenly said again.
Lu Yan looked back at her, she smiled, but her eyes filled with sadness.
After all, she was moved by her true feelings, so the hurt will not go away so easily, even if she said it so freely.
But Lu Yan didn’t have more sympathy for her, so he didn’t say more, and left first.
Although there is an extra layer of vigilance for Xu Yongzhou, Lu Yan has no time to pay more attention, because the preparations for the “Sniper” he took over have been completed and are ready to start shooting.
For this movie, Lu Yan attached great importance to it. He arrived on the crew early and met director Zhou Yingcai.
Zhou Yingcai is not very easy to get along with. However, this person is also really talented, so he was able to shoot such amazing works as “Sniper”. People who are a little talented and engaged in art are probably a little bit weird, and Lu Yan has already taken it for granted. Anyway, just like Su Mo’s evaluation of him, as long as Lu Yan is willing, he can get along well with anyone, which is one of his talents. So overall, it’s still good.
Because the main location of the story is in the jungle, during the three-month shooting period, the crew basically spent in the deep mountains and old forests. It was the hottest day of the year again. After finishing the shooting, Lu Yan was a lot darker and thinner, but he also exercised a lot. Even during the finale, some people joked that Lu Yan still had a murderous aura if he hadn’t appeared in the drama yet.
Lu Yan also admitted that he was so invested in the film that he was much slower than usual to leave. But the effect is also very obvious. If Zhou Yingcai’s director can be said to be amazing, then Lu Yan’s performance is simply breathtaking.
A very important thing happened during this period.
Halfway through the filming of the film, the original investor suddenly withdrew its capital. The reason is unclear, but in short, the money was not available.
If you don’t have money, you can’t make a movie, and all your previous efforts will be forfeited. Zhou Yingcai was so anxious that his mouth was full of bubbles, and Lu Yan was also very uncomfortable, but he had high hopes for this movie. However, he did not participate in the filming in the previous life, and he did not know if he also experienced this period at that time, and whether he could solve it satisfactorily, he had no clue in his heart.
Just when the crew was ready to go home, and Lu Yan was seriously considering whether to ask Su Mo for help, the good news finally came. The producer did not know where to bring in another investor. complete in one step. Without any worries, the film was successfully finished, and Lu Yan was relieved. This time, if I don’t win a few more awards at the Cannes Film Festival, I’m simply sorry for this twists and turns of development.
After the film was finished, the producer said that the new investor wanted to invite a few main creators to get together. Naturally, everyone had no objection. Lu Yan also wanted to meet this lucky investor.
After I went back, I quickly made an appointment and chose the most famous bar in the city.
This investor is quite interesting. He had an appointment at that place, and he should not be too old.
Lu Yan and the others arrived at the agreed place on time. When he saw the new investor, Lu Yan couldn’t help feeling that the world was really small and the fate was amazing. It turned out that the investor who helped him in the crisis was He Ming, the third young master of the He family, whom Lu Yancai had known not long ago.
He Ming sat on the sofa with his shirt open, his legs crossed and a wine glass in his hands, still looking wild and unruly. Seeing Lu Yan and the others coming in, he pointed at him, “Sit, don’t hold back.”
Zhou Yingcai was a little excited. After introducing himself, he held He Ming’s hand and couldn’t stop saying thanks. He was almost reborn from death and was naturally grateful for He Ming’s righteous action.
Lu Yan was much calmer, nodded, and called out, “Young Master He.”
He Ming raised his glass to him and said with a smile, “Meet again. We agreed to drink together last time, and now we finally do it.”
Lu Yan also smiled, “So Young Master He still remembers.”
The producer as the introducer was a little surprised, “How come you two have known each other so long ago?”
He Ming smiled and said, “I’ve only known each other for a while, but it’s a good match. To be honest, if I hadn’t known that Lu Yan was the hero of your movie, I wouldn’t necessarily have invested in you.”
Lu Yan didn’t know that there was another one, so he raised his glass and said, “Thanks to Young Master He, I’ll give you a toast.” After he finished speaking, he drank what was in the glass.
He Ming also drank the remaining wine in his glass in one gulp, and said with a smile, “I just like your crispness. That’s what a man should be like, don’t be a mother-in-law.”
Zhou Yingcai, who was sitting next to him, blushed all of a sudden, opened his mouth, but said nothing.
The producer hurriedly made a round of congratulations, “Come on, let’s congratulate Shao with a cup of congratulations, and thank him for his help in times of crisis, so that our movie can be successfully finished.”
Although He Ming is a son of an aristocratic family, because of his personality and his early experiences, he has a gangster temperament. He does things according to his preferences. He sees the right people, whatever he says is appropriate, but he doesn’t even bother to care about the people he sees wrong. The identity of the family is there, only others can please him, and there is no need for him to take care of others. So after the whole process, he mostly only talked to Lu Yan, and the others basically became foils.
Zhou Yingcai felt a little uncomfortable, but there was nothing he could do. The boss paid the money, and no matter how reckless he was, he knew that some people couldn’t afford to offend him. One night I just sat and drank, but fortunately, the producer was a good person, and I chatted with him from time to time.
