Chapter 223: See if he is cowardly
The meal Lu Yan He had with Lin Miaomiao, except for such a small episode, was actually very harmonious throughout the process.
Lin Miaomiao is a girl who is very cold and a bit distant most of the time, but after contacting her a few times, you will find that she actually has her cute and warm side in private.
Lin Miaomiao said: "After *Jump Up* is published, remember to send me a copy."
Lu Yan He nodded and said okay.
Lin Miaomiao: "I want one with your autograph."
Lu Yan He nodded again and said okay.
Lin Miaomiao nodded with satisfaction.
Actually, after a meal, Lin Miaomiao had nothing to say, as if she was just having a meal with him.
After eating, Lin Miaomiao said: "I'm going back. Do you have a car to pick you up?"
Originally, there was a car to pick up Lu Yan He, but because he had an appointment with Lin Miaomiao for dinner, Lu Yan He let them go back first and didn't have to wait for him.
Lu Yan He said: "I'll just call a taxi back myself."
"I'll let the driver send you back on the way."
"Not necessarily on the way," Lu Yan He said. "I'll just call a car myself."
Lin Miaomiao stretched out a finger and used a gesture to stop him, saying: "I'll let the driver send you."
She didn't speak loudly, nor did she have the so-called queen aura, but when she said this, it seemed like she didn't give Lu Yan He any space to refuse.
She said: "Let's go, the car is already here."
Lu Yan He had to follow Lin Miaomiao and picked up his phone, "I'll go pay the bill first."
"I invited you to dinner, why do you have to pay the bill?" Lin Miaomiao raised her chin slightly. "The boss of this shop knows me, and someone will come to settle the bill later."
Hearing Lin Miaomiao's statement, Lu Yan He was stunned.
Can it still be operated like this?
At this time, Chen Jingxuan suddenly appeared again.
He came out of a private room. Seeing Lin Miaomiao and Lu Yan He about to leave, he hurried over and said: "Miaomiao, are you going back?"
"Yeah," Lin Miaomiao nodded.
"I'll send you back."
"I have a car to pick me up," Lin Miaomiao looked at him thoughtfully and said: "Aren't you here to celebrate your classmate's birthday? Why did you run out again?"
Chen Jingxuan said without changing his face: "Of course, they are not as important as you."
Lu Yan He took a long breath instantly.
Wow, he originally thought this kind of talk could only appear in TV dramas, but he didn't expect to hear someone say it with his own ears.
Isn't it cheesy?
Lin Miaomiao looked at Chen Jingxuan coldly and said: "If you say this kind of thing again, I will be disgusted to death by you."
Chen Jingxuan had a kind of cockroach spirit that couldn't be beaten to death. No matter how mercilessly Lin Miaomiao rejected him, he persistently offered his heart to her.
Lin Miaomiao said to Lu Yan He: "Let's go."
Lu Yan He nodded. When passing by Chen Jingxuan, he noticed that Chen Jingxuan was looking at him with a look full of murderous intent.
Lu Yan He looked at Chen Jingxuan, and the latter's eyes had a warning meaning.
Lin Miaomiao sent Lu Yan He to the entrance of Hongfu Community.
"Don't forget the signed book you promised to send me," Lin Miaomiao exhorted. "Also, don't take the initiative to find me every time I don't find you. This is not enough as a friend."
Lu Yan He waved his hand, "Got it, I remember, leaving."
Lu Yan He went back, but unexpectedly met an acquaintance at the door.
Rather than an acquaintance, the two had never dealt with each other, but Lu Yan He knew her recently because of the drama *Accompany You to the End of the World* that Li Zhibai acted in, and this woman was the heroine.
Meng Li.
"Meng Li?"
Meng Li turned around and saw Lu Yan He, showing a surprised expression.
"Lu Yan He," she smiled at Lu Yan He, "It's great to see you. Does Li Zhibai live here?"
Lu Yan He nodded hesitantly.
He was still in shock, not knowing why Meng Li appeared here. Li Zhibai had complained about her before. After filming *Accompany You to the End of the World*, Li Zhibai's impression of Meng Li was very bad, saying that she was always late, did not cooperate with some arrangements of the crew, etc., and caused a lot of trouble for the crew during the filming process.
Moreover, during this period, Meng Li's publicity was also a lot. The manuscripts released by her team were all saying that Meng Li, as the only heroine of *Accompany You to the End of the World*, had fully demonstrated her ability to carry the drama, and also did a lot of marketing, including binding Li Zhibai and breaking out a lot of materials about the interaction between Meng Li and Li Zhibai in the crew.
Chen Ziyan had said that Meng Li was an artist who liked to step on other cooperative actors during the publicity period.
This time Meng Li didn't step on Li Zhibai, but it seemed like she was deliberately binding Li Zhibai.
Meng Li said with some dissatisfaction: "I don't know what's wrong with Li Zhibai. He doesn't answer my calls. You just help me see if he is here."
Lu Yan He hesitated and looked at the time. It was already past eight o'clock in the evening. He asked: "It's so late, is there anything you want to find him for?"
Meng Li's face flashed with an unnatural look, she gathered her hair and said: "I have something to find him for, but I have to tell him face to face."
Lu Yan He saw her say this, and felt even more strange, asked: "Then you came to find him, did you tell him in advance?"
"If I could contact him, why would I run here to find him?" Meng Li looked at Lu Yan He unhappily. "Why are you so dawdling? You just go in and see if he is here, right?"
Lu Yan He: "..."
Meng Li's attitude was as if she couldn't pretend anymore, and suddenly became a bit irritable.
Lu Yan He didn't understand why she would be like this, just subconsciously felt that this person was not good.
Li Zhibai didn't answer her call, she found the door, and no one answered in the room.
These signs only indicate one point: Li Zhibai probably didn't want to see this person.
He said: "You should have knocked on the door, right? Is he not here?"
"No one answered," Meng Li said angrily.
"Oh, then maybe he is not here," Lu Yan He said. "I don't live here either. If he is not here, I can't open the door."
"You don't live here?" Meng Li looked at Lu Yan He in shock.
"Yeah, I changed agents. Now I am with Tu Song and live on another floor," Lu Yan He deliberately shrugged his shoulders. "Since he is not here, I will go back."
He said and prepared to turn and leave.
"Wait!" Meng Li suddenly roared behind him.
Lu Yan He was startled and looked at her at a loss.
Meng Li said: "Lend me your phone."
"Phone?"
"He doesn't answer my calls. I want to see if he answers if I call him with your phone," Meng Li said.
Lu Yan He: "... I don't have my phone with me."
Meng Li: "Then where is it?"
"In the dormitory."
"I'll go with you to get it," Meng Li was particularly stubborn.
Lu Yan He said bluntly: "It's not convenient for you to go to my dormitory with me late at night."
Meng Li stared in surprise and asked: "I don't have any concerns, you still have concerns?"
Lu Yan He was silent for a few seconds and said the famous quote that is very popular online recently: "Boys should also protect themselves when they go out."
Meng Li was so angry that her face turned green.
She pointed at Lu Yan He: "You are deliberately satirizing me, right?"
Lu Yan He shook his head, "No, it's just that you are too popular. Who knows if there are paparazzi secretly photographing. To be honest, now I stand here talking to you and I feel uneasy, afraid of being rumored. You have too many fans, and I don't want to be cyber-bullied by them."
Meng Li: "..."
The anger on her face slowly dissipated.
Because she felt that what Lu Yan He said made a lot of sense.
Indeed, she is so popular now, it is normal for Lu Yan He to have such worries.
"You do it yourself, I'm leaving." Lu Yan He saw Meng Li's arrogance dissipate a bit, and immediately seized the time to leave.
He went straight to the floor where Tu Song was.
When he arrived at Tu Song's place, Lu Yan He said: "I'll stay here for a while."
Tu Song was a bit surprised by Lu Yan He's sudden appearance, but didn't ask anything and let Lu Yan He in directly.
Lu Yan He immediately sent a message to the three-person group where Li Zhibai and Yan Liang were: Are you at home?
Li Zhibai: Yes, I heard your conversation with Meng Li behind the door. Awesome, how did you know I didn't want to see her? And you helped me fool her.
Lu Yan He: She looked like she was not good at first glance. The problem is what happened between you and her? How did she find it here?
Li Zhibai: She is a lunatic! She insisted that I had a crush on her when I was filming in the crew, and even sent her a love letter. I went to see her once two days ago, and she suddenly started touching me!
Lu Yan He doubted if his eyes were wrong. What did he see?
Yan Liang bubbled:??? What happened?
Li Zhibai: You are not coming back tonight, right?
Yan Liang: I am in Xiaxi, how can I come back.
Li Zhibai: That's good, there is a plague god blocking the door, Old Lu just played a god-like cooperation with me.
Lu Yan He:... If it wasn't the love letter you sent, wouldn't it be fine if you explained it clearly to her?
Li Zhibai: The problem is, that love letter was indeed written by me.
Lu Yan He: What the hell?
Yan Liang: Did you change your heart?
Li Zhibai: Pfft, it's not like that at all. That's a misunderstanding! That was when we were playing truth or dare in the crew. Because Meng Li always looked down on us small actors and ignored us on weekdays, we said whoever loses has to write a love letter to her to see what her reaction would be. As a result, I was unlucky and lost the game. It didn't matter anyway, it was anonymous. I wrote it. Who knew she actually retrieved the surveillance record and found the picture of me putting the love letter into her room? I was really speechless. I explained to her for a long time, but she refused to believe it was truth or dare, and just insisted that I had a crush on her.
Yan Liang: What is this.
Li Zhibai: She even threatened me today, saying that if I don't admit it, she will expose the love letter I wrote on the internet.
Lu Yan He: You play this kind of game too.
Li Zhibai: Who told her to look at people with her eyes hanging in the crew, pretending to be something in front of the director, and ignoring us on weekdays, and also satirizing many people who don't have the fate to be popular and can only act as supporting roles for a lifetime. Everyone hates her and just wants to disgust her.
Yan Liang: As a result, you pitted yourself.
Li Zhibai: I am really convinced. I don't know if she deliberately refused to believe it, or just to disgust me. She made an appointment with me to go out today. I refused to go. I don't know where she got the place where we live and came to the door.
Yan Liang: She wouldn't really fall in love with you, right?
Li Zhibai: Not really, right?
Lu Yan He recalled the stubborn and paranoid energy on Meng Li just now, and felt that it was not impossible.
He: You are in trouble.
Yan Liang: You are in trouble +1.
Li Zhibai: I am really speechless. She won't really put the love letter I wrote on the internet, right?
Lu Yan He: Then this matter is what you did. If she really puts it up, what can you do?
Li Zhibai: Ruined reputation.
Yan Liang: Better apologize as soon as possible.
Li Zhibai: You think I didn't apologize? I said it was just a game, I apologized, and I explained it. She refused to accept it. What else can I do?
Lu Yan He:...
What is this?
Lu Yan He silently forwarded a document to the group.
Document name: Don't Be Cowardly When It's Time to Confess!
Li Zhibai:???
Li Zhibai: Lu Yan He, what are you doing?
Li Zhibai: Killing and punishing!
Li Zhibai: Old Lu, you have changed. My heart is bleeding, and you are still stabbing me!
Lu Yan He: Call me when she leaves. I'll hide at Tu Song's place first.
Li Zhibai: Amazing.
The next day, Lu Yan He met Chen Siqi and shared this story with her for the first time.
Chen Siqi was amazed and never expected to hear such an outrageous story happening to two unexpected people.
Chen Siqi said: "It serves him right, playing such a joke on a girl."
Lu Yan He: "It's not a joke. They just deliberately wanted to retaliate against Meng Li, see Meng Li's reaction, and finally tell her the truth to anger her."
Chen Siqi slanted her eyes and asked: "Do you think Li Zhibai's approach is right?"
"Uh, I just understand his mood for doing this, but I absolutely criticize his approach," Lu Yan He said immediately.
Chen Siqi supported her face with one hand and said: "Although I don't know what Meng Li did in the crew that made Li Zhibai hate her so much, the most fearful thing about this kind of behavior is that others take it seriously. Look, isn't Meng Li taking it seriously now? Harming others and harming oneself. So how is Li Zhibai now? Is Meng Li still looking for him?"
Lu Yan He said: "Li Zhibai told Zhou Ping'an about this, and now let Zhou Ping'an worry about finding a solution."
Chen Siqi complained: "He is pushing the trouble to others because he can't handle it himself."
"It's not others, it's the agent," Lu Yan He said. "If you can't handle this kind of thing yourself, you can only find an agent to deal with it."
Chen Siqi reminded him: "You'd better not cause such trouble for yourself. Zhou Ping'an is a man, but your agent Chen Ziyan is a woman. No woman will think Li Zhibai's behavior is okay after knowing this."
"He also regrets it now. A fall into the pit, a gain in your wit. He won't do this in the future."
Chen Siqi said: "Then Meng Li didn't look for you again later?"
"No, what is she looking for me for?" Lu Yan He said.
"Because your excuse is too clumsy. If she has the heart to ask, she will know that you didn't move to Tu Song's place at all," Chen Siqi said. "A big star, being fooled by you like this, maybe she will complain about you."
Lu Yan He: "There is no way. Between her and Li Zhibai, I definitely help Li Zhibai."
"That's true," Chen Siqi nodded. Regarding the friendship between Lu Yan He and Li Zhibai, Chen Siqi didn't say a word more.
She suddenly laughed.
"There is one thing you did really beautifully."
"What?" Lu Yan He asked.
"Slapping the article Li Zhibai wrote on his face," Chen Siqi laughed, "Let him insinuate. Now it's good, see if he is cowardly." ===== CHAPTER 224 =====
"That's true." Chen Siqi nodded; regarding the friendship between Lu Yan He and Li Zhibai, Chen Siqi didn't say a single extra word.
She suddenly started to laugh.
"There is one thing, though, that you did beautifully."
"What thing?" Lu Yan He asked.
"Slapping that article Li Zhibai wrote right in his face." Chen Siqi was overjoyed, "Let him make insinuations; now it's fine, let's see if he's a coward or not."
