When the Koi Became a Male Cannon Fodder - Chapter 121

After accepting Wu Xiaojun’s invitation, Jing Li didn’t delay any more, sent a message to Gu Tingshen, and then got up and went out.

When they arrived at the door of the hotel, Wu Xiaojun and his party were already waiting there. Wu Xiaojun was smiling and talking to Zhang Shuo. Wang Lele stood beside him and listened mostly in silence. The smile on his face was also faint, and he didn’t seem too enthusiastic. Look like.

Jing Li knew that Wang Lele didn’t agree with some of Wu Xiaojun’s behaviors, and he had mentioned it before, so he didn’t feel too surprised about it, and he didn’t plan to intervene more.

And since he knew Wang Lele, he knew what kind of temperament the other party was, so he always respected the other party’s behavior style, as long as there is no too much bias, let him deal with it and he can grow more.

“Jing Li~!” Wang Lele was the first to see him, the smile on his face instantly widened, and he raised his hand and waved at him.

Several other people raised their eyes when they heard his voice. When they saw Jing Li, they also showed big smiles.

Wu Xiaojun is also looking at Jing Li, but his sense of Jing Li is quite complicated compared to other people.

In the beginning, he was indeed rushing to climb the high branch of Jingli before deliberately to please him. After all, it is too difficult for him to get ahead in this circle without relying on any background and relying on his own bare hands.

But in the process of getting along with Jing Li, I faced such a handsome face every day, felt the gentleman’s gentleness attached to the other’s beautiful appearance, and saw his sincere and honest treatment of his friends…

All of this made him unable to help but be attracted to it, which really gave birth to likes, and his deliberate approach brought a touch of sincerity.

That’s why he pays attention to Jing Li’s emotions attentively, and asks people to place orders at all costs because of the other party’s love for a bunch of flowers, and wants to pursue it with sincerity.

But he didn’t expect that he would be a step late, let alone Jing Lihui and Gu Tingshen together.

That’s why he was so resentful and unwilling when he saw it that day.

But even if he was not reconciled, he could only swallow silently. Whether it was Jing Li or Gu Tingshen, neither a small person like him could afford to offend.

So when someone finds him on the condition of taking unlimited resources to praise him and let him get to know Jingli, he will not hesitate to respond.

And this gathering is the result of his planning.

But at this moment watching Jing Li smiling and walking towards them quickly, Wu Xiaojun’s heart suddenly felt a trace of guilt and anxiety.

He was indeed tempted by the resources the other party had promised him, but it was also because the other party’s request at the beginning was only for him to find a way to connect with Jing Li.

As the second youngest member of the Jing family, he was also close to the Gu family. There were many people in and out of the circle who wanted to get on the line of Jingli, so he didn’t think much about it before.

But with the subsequent contact with the other party, coupled with the attitude that was more urgent than the first time, it faintly made him feel that this matter might not be just for getting to know Jing Li.

But at this point, whether it is for the benefit or the identity and background of that person, he couldn’t be more afraid to give birth to remorse and betrayal, and he could only bite the bullet and walk down step by step according to the instructions of the other party.

However, he didn’t want to let Jing Li get into trouble because of himself. He was not only worried, but also jealous.

What’s more, he accidentally broke the relationship between Jing Li and Gu Tingshen that day, even if he clarified that he really didn’t have the intention of harming Jing Li, no one would believe it.

“Have you waited for a long time?” Jing Li didn’t seem to notice his entanglement. When he arrived, he smiled gently and greeted everyone.

“No, we have just arrived.” Wu Xiaojun responded with a smile on his face. Suddenly some dare not look directly into his eyes, and slightly staggered his gaze. “The car is already waiting outside, so shall we pass now?”

The others naturally didn’t have any opinions, and they all walked out the door after a response.

Wu Xiaojun walked at the end, watching Jing Li and Wang Lele and Zhang Shuo talking and laughing. After all, he couldn’t resist the anxiety of conscience. After hesitating, he said, “Teacher Jing, I have a few words to say to you alone. Can you wait a moment?”

After hearing the sound, the three people in front looked back at him, paused, Jing Li nodded, and then said to the two of them, “Then you two get in the car first.”

Both Wang Lele glanced at him, nodded and left first.

Jing Li and Wu Xiaojun were left on the spot.

Jing Li walked back a few steps and stood in front of Wu Xiaojun, waiting for him to speak.

But after waiting for a while, he didn’t see any reaction from him, so he couldn’t help asking, “Didn’t you say that you have something to tell me? What’s the matter?”

Jing Li’s words were gentle, not like inquiries. On the contrary, it brought a hint of concern, which made Wu Xiaojun’s already guilty heart touched again, and the balance that was already swaying in his heart instantly tilted towards Jing Li’s side.

“I…” Wu Xiaojun opened his mouth, and finally said, “I heard that you took another role in the movie. It seems that you are also shooting at the studio?”

“I didn’t expect the news to spread so quickly.”

Jing Li was stunned. Obviously he didn’t expect this to be what he was going to say, but this is not a secret that cannot be said, so he still smiled on his face, “It is indeed a role that is not far from our crew, but I don’t have many scenes, so it should be over in a day or two.”

When the words fell, seeing Wu Xiaojun’s eyes down and his lips pressed, Jing Li thought he was losing, after thinking for a while, he smiled and patted him on the shoulder and said, “It’s also a temporary call, otherwise I can learn more. Know if there are other suitable roles.”

“But it doesn’t matter. If there is a chance in the future, I will pay attention to it for you.”

What Jing Li said was natural, but Wu Xiaojun was taken aback when he heard it. He had no idea that Jing Li would actually consider him, and the feelings of injustice in his heart grew more and more.

If I had known…

“I didn’t mean it.” Wu Xiaojun sucked his nose, resisted the sourness in his nasal cavity, and said, “Movies are not as fast as TV shows. The pace of movies is faster, and the real interests are more important. The competition is stronger and the circle is relatively more. complex.”

He raised his eyes and glanced at Jing Li, pursing his lips, “Anyway, pay more attention to yourself.”

There is only so much that can be said. Wu Xiaojun dare not really betray the people who came to him, so he can only remind Jing Li to pay attention to him euphemistically.

At the end of the speech, he took a breath, and finally took a look at Jing Li, “I’m finished with my words, I’ll go to the car and wait for you first.”

With that, he nodded sharply towards Jingli, then quickly turned around and went out first.

Jing Li stood there, watching him leave in a hurry, frowning unconsciously.

He could hear Wu Xiaojun’s concern for him, but the words didn’t seem to be just a kind reminder, it seemed that there was something else.

But with just a few ambiguous words, he really didn’t have any clues. In the end, he could only put his doubts in his heart temporarily, and decided to look at it later.

Thinking about this, Jing Li quickly followed.

Others were already waiting in the car early. Wu Xiaojun got in the car a step ahead of him. At this moment, he was sitting in the middle of the car. When he saw him pulling the car door, he just shouted with a smile, and his face returned to his usual appearance. , It seems that everything just now is just his illusion.

Jing Li glanced at him calmly, then got into the car and sat next to him.

The group set off to go to the restaurant reserved by Wu Xiaojun.

Because it was someone else’s treat, Jing Li didn’t bring his assistant. He only asked him to find a hotel for what he wanted to eat. The expenses were all counted on him. Wang Lele and Zhang Shuo came directly from the studio and heard that it was. The private party only called the three of them and they all went alone. At this time, plus Wu Xiaojun, his two assistants, and his agent, there were only seven people.

It happened to be full of Wu Xiaojun’s commercial car.

However, because they haven’t had much contact with Wu Xiaojun’s agent and assistant, the two parties just smiled politely and nodded and said hello, and they didn’t say anything. In the car, Wu Xiaojun was mostly chatting with Jingli.

That’s it all the way to the restaurant.

It’s also a coincidence that this restaurant is the private restaurant where Jing Li and Gu Tingshen were photographed by paparazzi before, but this time Wu Xiaojun booked a private box in the side, and the window was facing a big river, which was completely eliminated. The possibility of being photographed.

“I checked it before, and the studio’s confidential work is the best in this neighborhood, and the dishes taste good, so I booked it here.”

Wu Xiaojun smiled and said to everyone, and then Chao Jingli smiled as if unintentionally, “I also saw Teacher Jing posted a photo of eating here. It was very greedy when I looked at it, so I always wanted to come over. I tasted it myself.”

These words seem casual, but they invisibly slap Jing Li’s flattery. One is to express that he often pays attention to Jing Li’s Weibo, and the other is to identify with Jing Li’s appreciation of food.

Jing Li still had the doubts he had before, so he just smiled and said nothing.

Wang Lele only glanced at him when he heard the words, but didn’t say anything.

Others smiled and followed along. Among them, I didn’t notice any twists and turns after entering the circle. It was because Zhang Shuo, who worshiped Jing Li in his heart, was the most serious. It was almost at the same time that Wu Xiaojun’s words fell off, and he had a serious look on his face. He nodded and said, “Ang Ge’s remarks are really up to my heart! Jing Ge’s greedy level is really simple!”

“Every time I see the photos he sends out, it makes me drool. The most overwhelming thing is that every time he posts a blog, it is either a meal or a late night! It makes me drool and yell at the pictures. Endure hunger and diet to stay in shape! Who knows the taste!”

Zhang Shuo spoke as if he was thinking of his horror at that time. The expression on his face looked very rich, and his subconscious swallowing action made the whole room laugh instantly.

Even Wang Lele couldn’t help being amused by him. “It’s the first time I saw someone who can make excuses for their gluttony and described it as so fresh and refined!”

“Then you have upgraded now. You don’t need to be greedy for pictures anymore, you can just be greedy for the scene!” Jing Li also teased him with a smile.

“Hahahahaha, you can eat more at that moment! Angkor will take care of it tonight!” Wu Xiaojun also smiled and replied.

When the words fell, everyone laughed again.

After some jokes, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became alive again.

As the initiator of this party, Wu Xiaojun warmly invited everyone to their seats, and then informed the waiter that they could start serving dishes.

“I don’t know what everyone likes. I just ordered some dishes. If you have something you want to eat, then continue to order. Don’t be polite.” Wu Xiaojun greeted everyone with a smile, and then said again, “Yes. Would you like some wine?”

“In front of me, people came to wake up with a bottle of red wine, thinking that it would be difficult to relax, shall we drink a little?”

After that, Wu Xiaojun looked at Jing Li again and said with a smile, “But Teacher Jing will have a show tomorrow morning. If you don’t want to drink, I also ordered two fresh squeezed. You can try it later.”

His difference in treatment was too obvious, but because Jing Li’s identity was there, the others didn’t say much even if they knew it in their hearts, but agreed with a smile.

It was Jing Li, but he clearly heard something different.

Just like what the other party said when he was in the hotel, there seemed to be something else besides caring for him.

Jing Li even felt that the other party was not actually afraid that he would delay the next day’s scenes, but simply that he was drunk.

The feeling of doubt before was more obvious, Jing Li raised his eyes and glanced at Wu Xiaojun again, but he did not respond.

“It doesn’t matter if I drink less.” Jing Li smiled, “but everyone is in control. There are still scenes to be filmed tomorrow afternoon, so don’t affect the state.”

Seeing him saying this, Wu Xiaojun pursed his lips and glanced at him, but he didn’t say anything, he responded with a smile, and then asked the waiter to bring up the awake red wine and pour it on everyone on the table himself.

Then took the lead in toasting to everyone present.

Naturally, other people toasted and drank with him.

Putting down the cup, the dishes on the table are now ready, Wu Xiaojun greets everyone to eat, while standing up again with the wine glass.

“I would like to respect Teacher Jing for this cup alone,” Wu Xiaojun said sincerely with a smile, “Thank you for the help and care of Teacher Jing in the crew, which has benefited me a lot.”

Jing Li glanced at him, smiled and raised his glass and stood up.

“Teacher Jing, you just sit down.”

Wu Xiaojun hurriedly greeted, but Jing Li still stood up. Wu Xiaojun saw that the persuasion was fruitless and did not stop him. He continued with his unfinished words, “Teacher Jing, you may not know, I really like you so much.”

When he said this, Wu Xiaojun looked straight into Jing Li’s eyes, his tone was very serious, he was taking the opportunity to express his feelings, and the look in his eyes was a bit complicated for a while.

But it was limited to this. He didn’t dare to show too much, and quickly added, “Whether it is Mr. Jing’s dedication in acting or a gentle gentleman in daily life, I think there are many places worthy of my visit. Learn.”

“I also know that I actually have a lot of shortcomings in this person, and there are many things that I don’t do well, I hope Teacher Jing can help me.”

This was sincere, and other people did only think that he was talking about their admiration and did not doubt it.

But only Wu Xiaojun himself knows that these words are not only to confide in his own heart, but also to express his guilt in a vague opportunity, and hope from the bottom of his heart that the other party will not treat him thoroughly after learning the truth. disappointment.

Faced with his emotional venting and his obvious actions to show good, Jing Li’s heart was also very touched.

But it was not because he was moved, but because he instinctively felt that Wu Xiaojun’s remarks seemed to mean something. Coupled with all the previous things, Jing Li vaguely felt that Wu Xiaojun really wanted to convey something to him, but because of his scruples in his heart. , So I dare not be too provocative.

But with his specious attitude, Jing Li couldn’t figure out his intentions for a while, on the contrary, it made him even more suspicious of Wu Xiaojun’s behavior, and even began to doubt the other party’s purpose of organizing this gathering.

But until there is no conclusive evidence, all this is just his speculation.

So even though he was already vigilant, in order not to startle the snake, Jing Li’s face was still faint, pretending that he didn’t know anything.

“No one is born to be perfect, but people who strive for their dreams and goals should be respected.” Jing Li thought for a while, and said, “Even if there are flaws and shortcomings, it is the cognition and improvement of oneself as you grow up. Good spur.”

“And I think you have done a good job.” Jing Li took the initiative to raise his glass and gestured to Wu Xiaojun, “May you have a bright future.”

People who strive for dreams and goals should be respected…

So can it be forgiven even occasionally regardless of the cost?

Wu Xiaojun was stunned, thinking for a moment that he had understood something, and when he raised his eyes, he let out a sigh of relief and raised his lips and smiled happily, “Thank you, Teacher Jing.”

“I’ve done this cup, you are free.”

When the words were over, Wu Xiaojun raised his head and drank the wine clean.

Jing Li also took a sip with a smile.

Then take a seat.

Wu Xiaojun was about to speak again when he suddenly heard his cell phone ring.

He said sorry to everyone, then took out his phone and took a look.

Jing Li saw that his hand holding the phone tightened instantly, and Yu Guang seemed to glance at his side, but before he could see clearly, he saw that the other party had already got up with the phone and got out of the box to answer the phone.

Jing Li also withdrew his sight.

After a while, Wu Xiaojun came in from outside the door with embarrassment on his face. He looked at Jingli and the others, “Sorry everyone, that, I have a friend who said he wanted to come to me to talk about the past in the film and television city, everyone minds a lot. Are you alone?”

As he said, before anyone could speak, he added, “I’m also a member of the circle, who just happened to come here to make a movie.”

After a pause, he looked at Jing Li, hesitated for a moment, and said, “I also heard that Teacher Jing is with me, so I want to come over and get acquainted with you first.”

Hearing him deliberately mentioning Jing Li, the people who were still thinking about him took a look at Jing Li at the same time.

Jing Li also raised an eyebrow in surprise, “Me?”

“Yes, it happened that you and you both played the role in “Xiantu”, that is, Zhang Weixi, who plays the second man.”

Jing Li thought about it for a while, and it seemed that there was indeed such a person, and seeing everyone saying that, he couldn’t say much.

And he has an intuition that all Wu Xiaojun’s abnormalities and the purpose of this party tonight may be paving the way for this person’s arrival.

And he has never been a person who likes to escape. Since he is being watched by others, there is naturally no reason to miss him.

So he smiled slightly and said he was okay.

Wang Lele frowned and glanced at Jing Li, but after receiving Jing Li’s soothing gaze, he didn’t speak.

When other people saw Jing Li’s words, naturally there would be nothing.

Wu Xiaojun smiled and apologized again, and while calling the waiter to add a chair, he took out the phone and pretended to call the person over and left the box.

Now that someone is coming, the people at the table can’t move the chopsticks anymore, and the others just start chatting.

Fortunately, the people who are coming are fast, and they arrived in more than ten minutes.

Waiting for Wu Xiaojun to open the box door again, there was another person behind him.

With an apologetic smile on his face, Wu Xiaojun apologized to everyone while turning to the side so that the people behind him were completely presented in front of everyone, and he took the initiative to introduce the other person’s name.

Zhang Weixi’s face often appeared in front of the screen, and his reputation was not low. Even if they were unfamiliar, they had seen it before, so they all smiled and greeted him.

Wu Xiaojun led Zhang Weixi to sit down in his seat while introducing everyone present with him.

As the person with the highest status here, Jing Li was naturally the first to be introduced.

In the face of Jing Li, Zhang Weixi’s attitude is also the most enthusiastic, and it can even be said that the enthusiasm is too much.

“Teacher Jing, look up to the name for a long time!” Zhang Weixi smiled and stretched out his hands towards him sincerely, as if he couldn’t wait to shake hands with him.

Jing Li didn’t stretch out his hand. Instead, he clenched a fist with the other hand on top and shook him up and down as a reward. He smiled gently and said, “I’m far away, so I don’t have to stretch it out. You are welcome, and I hope that we will also cooperate happily in the future.”

Everything seemed normal in his words and deeds, as if he hadn’t noticed anything abnormal, let alone see the dense black mist around the opponent’s body, especially the thick black mist wrapped in his hands.

The opposite Zhang Weixi quietly looked at his expression for a few seconds, and didn’t notice what was wrong, and then smiled and said that it was okay, and then followed Wu Xiaojun’s introduction to look at other people.

But Jing Li could clearly see that the original thick black mist faded in an instant from his retracted hand, and finally the black mist around his body was gathered up, leaving only a small patch on the top of his head.

It was also because of this that he saw that Zhang Weixi’s head was not only surrounded by black mist, but also surrounded by a pure but thin aura, but the two sides were incompatible, repelling each other and swallowing each other.

But for a moment, the aura was melted a bit by the thick black mist, and it became a little thinner.

Jing Li lowered his eyes, hiding the expression in his eyes, but in his heart he became more wary of the person in front of him.
