Chapter 544: Damn it! Caught red-handed!

~25 min read 4,843 words

The sky outside the window gradually darkened.

"Ding-a-ling—" a pleasant mobile phone ringtone rang out.

The lively conversation stopped immediately.

Li Jingrong looked at the caller ID, and a sweet smile immediately appeared on her face.

Answered quickly: "Hello, honey." "Oh, oh, you're here? So fast! Okay, okay, okay, you just wait for me downstairs, I'll be down in a minute."

"Mm-hmm, bye-bye."

After hanging up the phone, Li Jingrong stood up and said to the two roommates: "My boyfriend is downstairs, I'll go out to accompany him first. Lele, what about that 'brother' of yours? How much longer will it take?"

Qian Lele looked at her phone and said: "There's a bit of traffic on the road, it should take another ten minutes or so."

The agreement was to arrive before 6 o'clock, but Li Jingrong's boyfriend arrived much earlier.

Wu Siqi immediately suggested: "Then why don't we go to the first floor of the canteen together first? It's closer to the school gate, it's so cold today, don't let Jingrong and her boyfriend wait outside foolishly."

"Um, okay." Qian Lele nodded and quickly sent a message to Tang Song on WeChat.

"Go Go Go! Let's go!"

The three picked up their bags and walked out talking and laughing.

Along the way, the brand-new Qian Lele attracted the attention of many classmates.

She pulled her hem a bit uncomfortably, but in her heart, she couldn't help but feel a little bit of excitement.

Walking out of the dormitory building, the cold night wind mixed with the bleakness of winter hit her face.

Qian Lele subconsciously tightened her cardigan.

Li Jingrong next to her stood on tiptoe and waved hard at the street lamp not far away: "Honey, over here!"

Qian Lele looked up and saw a figure walking over, wearing a dark business jacket, dressed cleanly and maturely, with hair combed meticulously with hair gel.

Her gaze stayed on him briefly, and she remembered the gossip of her roommates before.

This boyfriend of Li Jingrong is named Zhang Minghua, a local of Yancheng, whose parents both work in the system.

After graduation, he also successfully entered a large state-owned enterprise with good benefits, which Li Jingrong met during her summer internship.

The conditions are very good, and he is also considerate to Jingrong.

"Xiaorong, Siqi." Zhang Minghua's voice was gentle and steady.

When his gaze swept over Qian Lele, he was obviously slightly stunned, and a flash of undisguised amazement flashed in his eyes.

The fresh breath unique to a young girl, and a healthy and sexy figure.

In the bleak night wind, like a lily quietly blooming with dew.

Coupled with the setting off of Wu Siqi and Li Jingrong, she looked even more moving.

Li Jingrong immediately proudly took his arm and introduced him boastfully: "How is it? This is our dormitory's treasure junior, Qian Lele, isn't she beautiful?"

"So beautiful, I say—" Zhang Minghua exclaimed exaggeratedly, "Is this the school beauty of your Yancheng Normal University?"

Qian Lele was a bit embarrassed by what he said, and hurriedly waved her hands: "No, no, I—"

Li Jingrong giggled: "Alright, alright, look at how you flatter her, our Lele is very shy, haha."

Zhang Minghua couldn't help but look at Qian Lele a few more times.

He smiled and said: "I'm not flattering her, I'm telling the truth. Lele's pure temperament is too rare in today's society. Unlike those internet celebrities outside, they are all the same. She looks like the kind of good girl who has a good upbringing and is quiet."

Qian Lele's face was a bit red, and for a moment she didn't know what to say, standing there in a daze.

Mainly because it was her first time meeting the other party, she was not used to such direct "praise."

"Let's go, it's cold outside, let's go to the canteen and sit for a while, there's still one person missing."

"Who else is there?" Zhang Minghua asked curiously.

"Lele's 'brother', hehe, he'll be here soon."

Hearing the title "brother," Zhang Minghua was stunned, and then reacted, feeling a bit uncomfortable in his heart.

After all, such a fresh and beautiful pure college student has an ambiguous object.

It would make him, a "normal male," feel a little bit of regret.

A group of people walked through the bustling campus path and came to the first floor of the canteen.

They found an empty seat near the entrance and sat down.

Zhang Minghua played the leading role in this small gathering very naturally.

He first gentlemanly helped the girls pull out the chairs, and then took the initiative to buy drinks, his every move revealing a mature man's steadiness and sophistication.

After sitting down, he opened the conversation.

Talking endlessly about the interesting anecdotes in his state-owned enterprise unit and commenting on current affairs hotspots.

From time to time, he would pop out a few English abbreviations that sounded very high-end, such as "KPI," "OKR," and "SOP."

Li Jingrong's eyes were bright, looking at her boyfriend with some worship.

Approaching her senior year, the pressure of finding a job came head-on, and Zhang Minghua's state of having "landed ashore" and looking forward to a bright future.

For her, it was full of huge attraction and a sense of security.

This was also the main reason why she got together with the other party so quickly.

Zhang Minghua's gaze, however, couldn't help but frequently sweep over Qian Lele's face.

No way, she was just too beautiful!

Beauties, who doesn't like to look at them a few more times?

He looked at his girlfriend beside him who had eyes full of him, and the corners of his mouth rose.

He said in a relaxed tone: "Lele is in the computer department, right? This major is quite good, it's a vent, and now AI is popular, it's just too tiring. Girls, you still have to seek stability, you can try to take an exam for a position or something. The technical people in our unit, the fixed salary plus project bonus every month, easily exceeds ten thousand, the key is stability, and the housing provident fund is paid at the highest proportion, so it's easy to get a mortgage for a house in the future." Qian Lele listened quietly, nodding from time to time with a smile.

However, she didn't really agree with the other party's point of view in her heart.

One is that now "landing ashore" is like thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge.

Moreover, when she applied for this major, she wasn't aiming for stability and enjoyment.

She didn't have as good family conditions as Zhang Minghua, she needed to make money, and she needed to use her technology to change the fate of herself and her family.

Even if it's bitter and tiring, it doesn't matter.

The phone in her hand suddenly vibrated, and Qian Lele looked down.

[Brother: "I have arrived at the Normal University, I will go to the canteen immediately."]

Qian Lele's heart suddenly lifted, both nervous and excited.

At the same time, an unspeakable, surging longing drowned her.

Those short half a month in the teacher's apartment was the brightest color in her life so far.

Until now, she still remembers the silent academic bully boy.

And how he suddenly cast magic, letting her change into gorgeous clothes like Cinderella, take a pumpkin carriage, and go to Yaoyao's birthday party.

Zhang Minghua took a sip of his drink, and his gaze turned to Wu Siqi again.

"Siqi, that Yannan film and television base of yours is not bad, it has the serious central enterprise background of the Cultural Tourism Group behind it, the benefits and treatment must not be bad, and there are many opportunities."

Wu Siqi nodded hard, then hesitated: "The unit is very good, it's just that I don't know if I can successfully turn into a regular employee after graduation."

She is just an intern now, signed a tripartite agreement, the company did not promise 100% regular employment, and a part of the interns will be eliminated every year, the competition is very fierce.

This is also the reason why she seized the opportunity to want to express herself. Zhang Minghua smiled faintly, leaned forward slightly, and said in the posture of a person who has come over: "You must take the initiative to have a good relationship with the leaders, be quick-witted, girls, be sweeter—"

Approaching the peak of dinner time, the canteen was bustling with noise, and long queues formed in front of the meal windows.

In front of three young and beautiful college students, enjoying their gaze that was sometimes focused and sometimes worshipful, as the absolute "leader" of this conversation.

Zhang Minghua talked more and more vigorously, and his voice became much louder.

Just at this time.

The noisy human voices around suddenly dropped.

One gaze after another, involuntarily gathered in the same direction.

Accompanied by the low exclamations of many girls.

Wu Siqi and Li Jingrong also noticed the abnormality and looked up curiously.

A slender and upright figure broke into their sight.

He was walking slowly from the entrance soaked in the night, with a gentle and indifferent expression on his handsome face.

The caramel-colored turtleneck sweater presented a warm and deep texture, fitting his figure with broad shoulders and a narrow waist.

Jet-black broken hair swept across the exquisite square-framed glasses on the bridge of his nose.

Clean, refreshing, and carrying a hint of lazy literary atmosphere.

Out of place with the noisy environment around.

Wu Siqi and Li Jingrong looked at him with hot cheeks, their heartbeats accelerated, and they couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice:

"Damn, this is too handsome—"

"How come I didn't know there was such a male god in our school?!"

Zhang Minghua's endless voice stopped instantly, he glanced at the entrance with displeasure, and his face changed slightly.

Immediately patted his girlfriend's arm, and said in a joking, deliberately generous tone: "Not really, right? Be more mature. Look at Lele, how calm she is."

As soon as the words fell.

Qian Lele, who had been sitting quietly, stood up from her seat abruptly, her beautiful phoenix eyes staring straight ahead.

The expression on Zhang Minghua's face froze instantly, incomparably embarrassed.

Wu Siqi and Li Jingrong laughed "pfft," just about to say something teasing.

But saw Qian Lele walk over quickly.

The three were stunned instantly.

Watching Qian Lele stop in front of that "male god" under the gaze of everyone.

"You're here, brother."

Hearing the crisp and pleasant title, looking at the Cinderella who had dressed up carefully in front of her.

Tang Song showed a good-looking smile on his face, gently rubbed her head, "Good evening, Lele. You dressed up so beautifully today, I almost didn't recognize you."

Although a bit exaggerated, he did have this feeling.

It had been almost two months since they last met, Qian Lele had become much whiter, and her skin had become more delicate.

Coupled with the blessing of makeup, the pure college girl atmosphere on her body was almost overflowing.

Feeling Tang Song's warm and slender big hand, Qian Lele's cheeks instantly flushed.

Shyly said: "No, just—"

Tang Song chuckled, and suddenly, like a magic trick, lifted the kraft paper bag he had been carrying behind his back.

"Before coming over, I went to the pedestrian street outside the school first and bought a few starch sausages from Sister Wen, and a bag of your favorite spicy strips."

Looking at the bag in front of her, smelling the familiar smell inside, looking at the familiar figure in front of her, Qian Lele's eyes turned red.

But she quickly restrained her emotions, smiled, and took it, "Thank you, brother."

Immediately, she seemed to remember something and hurriedly turned around.

Introduced: "This, this is my brother, Tang Song. These are my roommates, Wu Siqi, Li Jingrong, and Jingrong's boyfriend."

Wu Siqi and Li Jingrong then woke up like a dream, stood up with red faces.

"Hello, thank you—thank you for coming to help guest star!"

"He—hello—"

Looking at the boy close at hand, their eyes were full of shock and disbelief.

Although they had guessed before that the boy who could make Qian Lele care so much must not be simple.

But they never expected that he would—grow up like this!

Not to mention his figure and appearance, just his temperament and feeling, he was simply like the male lead who walked directly out of the romance novel they stayed up late to chase!

Zhang Minghua's face was a bit stiff, and he squeezed out a reluctant smile.

Nodded, which counted as a greeting.

Tang Song smiled gently at everyone and said: "It just so happens that I bought a few more sausages, Lele, distribute them to everyone."

Qian Lele immediately took out the sausages from the paper bag and distributed one to each person.

Wu Siqi and Li Jingrong hurriedly took them and said "thank you" in a low voice.

Zhang Minghua looked at the starch sausage in front of him and waved his hand pretentiously, "Thank you, I don't really like eating starch sausages."

Qian Lele was slightly stunned and put the starch sausage back.

Zhang Minghua raised his wrist, looked at his Tissot watch, and urged: "The time is almost up, should we go over?"

Wu Siqi quickly came back to her senses, "Right, right, right, let's go directly to the school gate and take a taxi, our company will reimburse it."

"Okay, let's go quickly, let's grab a good spot first."

While talking, a few people soon arrived at the school gate.

Wu Siqi took the initiative to arrange: "Let's take two cars. I'll take Lele and them in one, Jingrong, you and Brother Minghua in one."

The three got into the car.

Wu Siqi consciously sat in the passenger seat, "Master, go to the East Gate of Yannan Short Drama Film and Television Base."

Hearing this familiar name, Tang Song in the back seat paused slightly.

Immediately reacted, Lele only said before that they were filming short dramas in the Livehouse, didn't expect it to be in Yannan.

But it was also normal, now the Yannan Short Drama Film and Television Base is developing vigorously.

With the explosive growth of the short drama market, it has developed into the most popular film and television industry cluster in Yansheng and even the entire North China region.

In addition to undertaking short drama filming businesses for major platforms, a large number of internet celebrities under media companies and MCN agencies will also be stationed here for a long time to shoot short video scripts in different scenes.

Huge traffic and popularity have also driven the rapid development of surrounding industries.

The base company took the opportunity to expand many supporting facilities, not only bars like Livehouse, but even theme cafes, internet celebrity restaurants, etc.

The taxi started slowly and merged into the thick night traffic.

Tang Song turned his head slightly and saw the "Cinderella" beside him who was secretly looking at him with the corner of her eyes.

Their eyes met.

Qian Lele's body trembled violently, hurriedly shifted her gaze, and cast her gaze at the neon lights flying backward outside the window.

Her cheeks, however, blushed uncontrollably.

Tang Song smiled, breathing the clean and fresh fragrance on her body, and took the initiative to care about her recent situation.

From life to study, he asked very meticulously.

Qian Lele held the kraft paper bag in her hand, answering clearly, and even took the initiative to talk about some front-end knowledge she had been learning recently—what she liked most was this feeling, and she had longed for it for a long, long time.

The two chatted in a low voice, the atmosphere warm and natural.

Wu Siqi in the front looked at the two through the rearview mirror, feeling both envious and excited in her heart.

I don't know why, as long as she sees Tang Song and Lele sitting together.

She feels as if she has broken into a classic scene in Xu Qing's novel, with a huge sense of satisfaction of "shipping the CP."

Yannan Short Drama Film and Television Base, southeast corner.

The Aston Martin stopped slowly in front of the newly built Livehouse, immediately attracting the attention of many people.

The door opened, and Xu Qing stepped on a pair of exquisite thin high heels and walked down from the car elegantly.

The little pendant Susu followed closely behind.

"Wow—Big shot Qingqing, it's so cool here!"

"Heh, it's okay. Let's go, Susu, let's go in."

This Livehouse named "LightRail" is the latest supporting facility of the entire film and television base, and it hasn't even officially opened to the public yet.

Tonight, it is the first time it has officially lit up, and all of this is for the script of her, Miss Xu Qing.

This is the face! This is the strength!

Xu Qing crossed her arms, not knowing who the opponent was.

Inside the Livehouse.

The lights had been debugged, and the blurred beams of light intersected in the air, creating a lazy and restless atmosphere.

There were not many staff members on site, mostly Livehouse's own employees helping to maintain order, and the core members of the real crew, directors, photographers, lighting, etc., added up to only a dozen people.

This is the characteristic of short drama filming, efficient, streamlined, and fast-paced.

"Sister Qing is here!"

"Good evening, President Xu!"

Seeing Xu Qing, the staff on site immediately surrounded her enthusiastically.

"How is it? Is everything ready?" Xu Qing nodded and immediately switched to work mode.

It is worth mentioning that now with the expansion of Fanfuxuzi, the legal department has been pulled out separately.

Relying on her relationship with Tang Song and Guo Liyuan, Xu Qing successfully became the legal director.

Coupled with her 2% equity, she has already become the "little overlord" of the company.

"The equipment has been debugged, and the next step is for the extras to enter."

After inspecting the set.

Xu Qing then led Susu, who was already a bit dizzy, to the quiet VIP booth on the second floor.

This is also the place with the best view.

Exquisite fruit platters and various alcoholic beverages had long been placed on the table.

"Big shot Qingqing—you are too amazing!" Susu was full of worship.

Today, she really gained knowledge.

After eating at noon, she was directly arranged in an executive suite of the Lanfeng International Five-Star Hotel, and, she didn't have to pay a penny.

It was arranged by Big shot Qing's best friend Lin Muxue, and she even gave her a free top-level spa experience voucher.

Now that she arrived at the crew, the momentum on Big shot Qing's body was even more obvious.

Confident, powerful, as if omnipotent,

Simply the Queen from the anime!

"Hehe, it's okay." Xu Qing's mouth curled into a faint smile, "In the future, if you still want to guest star, just speak up."

"Thank you, Big shot Qingqing! You are my god!"

Susu was so excited that her eyes shone, and she knelt on the soft sofa booth.

Put her hands together and bowed solemnly to Xu Qing.

"Silly, why be so polite."

(

In the air, soft and soothing jazz music began to play.

The two drank a few sips of wine and ate some exquisite fruit snacks.

Susu finally couldn't hold back the raging fire of gossip in her heart, leaned forward slightly, and opened her mouth cautiously: "That—Sister Qingqing, can I ask a more personal question?"

"Go ahead." Xu Qing shook the cocktail in her glass elegantly, her posture lazy and composed, like a female star preparing to accept an interview.

"It's just that—I've been chasing your 'serialization' in the group. I'm really curious, did you and that ex-boyfriend, the super overbearing president, really break up completely in the end?"

At the beginning, Susu was actually a fan of the male lead, extremely obsessed with the cold, overbearing, yet affectionate president in Qingqing's mouth.

She only thought it was a story Qingqing fabricated, but this meeting revealed that everything was actually true.

That is to say, that overbearing president should also be real.

There is a feeling that the drama she is chasing has become reality,

And that "male second lead" who made her completely "defect" later, which can be called the ideal of the world!

She couldn't wait to know what they were like in reality.

Miss Xu Qing was slightly stunned when she heard this.

She didn't answer directly, just drank the wine in her glass in one gulp.

She sighed faintly, looking at the brilliant night view in the bar, as if falling into some complex and sad memories.

After a long time, she said slowly: "Only children talk about breaking up, in our adult world, there are only 'temporary separations' and 'entanglements that cannot be cut—'"

She once again reached the highest realm of a coser, completely substituting into the role of Xu Yanqing.

At the same time.

Two taxis stopped at the entrance of the LightRail Livehouse.

Tang Song and others walked out one after another.

Many young people who came to "guest star" had already gathered at the entrance, mostly students from nearby universities.

Everyone was dressed in a trendy and fashionable way, full of vitality.

Wu Siqi was obviously very familiar with the process here, and led the four to a temporary check-in desk at the entrance.

"Hello, I am Wu Siqi, an intern at the film and television base, these are my friends."

The staff in charge of check-in checked the list, smiled, and handed over four fluorescent bracelets and a few drink vouchers.

"Welcome, welcome! Wear the bracelet on your wrist, this is your 'pass' for tonight, you can use the voucher to refill soft drinks and snacks at the bar indefinitely. Starting at 7:20, there will also be a special buffet provided."

"Okay, thank you!"

A group of people put on bracelets and walked into the Livehouse.

The scene was already crowded.

On the stage, the band was debugging the equipment, occasionally emitting one or two distorted guitar riffs, causing bursts of excited whistles from the audience.

Because they didn't arrive early, the seats near the center of the stage had already been occupied.

Wu Siqi led them, and it was hard to find a seat in a booth in the corner.

Qian Lele was obviously coming to such an occasion for the first time, and she sat on the edge of the sofa with some restraint.

A pair of beautiful phoenix eyes looked at everything around with curiosity and nervousness.

Li Jingrong exclaimed sincerely: "The environment here is too good! It feels more professional than those Livehouses in the city! Your film and television base is really amazing!"

Wu Siqi laughed "hehe," "It's really awesome."

Zhang Minghua smiled and took over the conversation, saying in the tone of an insider: "The background of this film and television base is more complicated than you think."

He paused, enjoying the curious gazes cast by the girls, "It was jointly founded by Handing Group and Cultural Tourism Group, involving the cultural tourism planning of the entire southern region, and it is a key project of the government! But later, because of the downturn in real estate, Handing Group's capital chain had problems, so they sold the equity in their hands. I heard from a leader in our unit that the new boss who took over is a top tycoon, directly taking out more than 100 million in cash—"

Hearing this, several girls let out small exclamations.

Wu Siqi widened her eyes and said: "Really? So our boss behind the scenes is so powerful?!"

She is just an intern, the biggest leader she has come into contact with is her supervisor, and she knows nothing about the company's deep background.

"Of course it's true, and the second and third phases will also start construction next year. It is said that the tycoon will continue to invest, including studios, hotels..."

Zhang Minghua leaned back on the sofa comfortably and talked eloquently, his posture revealing a calm and experienced look.

His gaze swept over Tang Song inadvertently.

However, to his regret, the other party had no special reaction.

Just listening quietly, occasionally turning his head to chat with Qian Lele beside him in a low voice, seemingly indifferent to these "heavy inside stories."

In fact, these were also "inside information" he heard from various wine bureaus and dinner tables, half-understood.

At this moment, he added fuel to the fire and told it, more to become the focus of everyone.

A few people chatted in the booth for a while.

The crowd in the livehouse began to move.

Wu Siqi pointed to the position diagonally in front and said excitedly: "Drinks and food are ready at the bar, let's go get some, drink, eat, and chat!"

"Go! Let's go! Let's get more!" Li Jingrong responded immediately, affectionately pulling Zhang Minghua to stand up.

Tang Song looked at the Cinderella beside him who looked a bit restrained, noticing the invisible gazes around.

Smiled, took the initiative to reach out, and gently wrapped her slightly cool hand in his palm.

Qian Lele's heart jumped suddenly.

Lowered her head, hid her hot cheeks behind the falling hair, and let him lead her.

Walking through the colorful lights and crowds of the Livehouse.

Silently feeling the feeling of being wrapped, led, and protected.

The five lined up at the bar to wait.

Tang Song's gaze scanned the surroundings, curiously looking at the crew that was preparing to film.

Although he had invested in Fanfuxuzi for a long time, this was his first time coming to such a filming site, and he felt quite novel.

Immediately, his gaze stopped abruptly, and a stunned look appeared on his face.

The second floor of the LightRail Livehouse is a semi-open circular corridor, separated from the dance floor on the first floor by dark metal railings.

Unlike the crowded and lively atmosphere downstairs, the lights there were dimmer and quieter, with a few scattered VIP booths.

And in one of the booths with the best view, a woman was leaning on the sofa, holding a cocktail with gorgeous colors in her hand, her posture elegant and lazy.

Although separated by a distance, the light was a bit dim.

But wearing [Tang Song's glasses], he recognized his coser girlfriend at a glance.

Big silly Qing!

Tang Song raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously,

Speaking of which, he had been back in Yancheng for two or three days, and had been saying he would go see her, but he didn't have time at all.

Didn't expect to meet her here, just go over and give her a surprise.

He squeezed Qian Lele's hand lightly and whispered in her ear: "Lele, I have something to do and will leave for a while. I'll be back soon, you guys play first."

"Oh, okay." Qian Lele nodded subconsciously.

Feeling Tang Song's hand loosen, she felt inexplicably empty in her heart.

Her gaze uncontrollably followed his figure, through the crowd, and up the stairs step by step.

In the dim light and shadow, in the VIP booth on the second floor.

"Sister Qingqing, I saw you say in the group that your ex-boyfriend later chased you on the elevated bridge in the rainy night in a Ferrari, what—what happened to him later?"

Susu held her face, her eyes full of yearning for "overbearing president literature coming into reality."

"Him—" Xu Qing's eyes became a bit blurred, as if falling into some complex and sad memories, "He now—probably alone, guarding that empty villa that once belonged to us. Drinking stuffy wine, waiting for me to change my mind."

"After all." She stretched out a slender finger and tapped her red lips lightly, "Some things, once tasted, can never be quit again."

"Wow, he feels so bitter!" Susu's heart was pinched, "Just because of his strength and overbearing, he lost such an excellent woman like you, Sister Qingqing, he must be regretting to death!"

"Heh!" Xu Qing's mouth curled into a faint smile with three points of mockery, three points of coolness, and four points of indifference, "A man's regret is like expired canned food, except for proving that he was blind at the beginning, it is worthless!"

Just at this time.

A low and magnetic voice suddenly sounded from the side: "What ex-boyfriend? What tasted?"

Xu Qing's whole body stiffened, and she raised her head almost mechanically, frame by frame.

Then she saw the figure that couldn't be more familiar.

Damn it! Caught red-handed!

The composure of the "big heroine" collapsed instantly, replaced by pure panic.

(0A0)!!

Then, she saw that figure she couldn't be more familiar with.

Damn it! Caught red-handed!

The composure of the "great heroine" collapsed instantly, replaced by pure panic and bewilderment.

(0A0)!!
