CH 23

Fang Wei doesn’t seem very satisfied with him. Wen Jianing can feel it, but he doesn’t understand why. According to his understanding of Fang Wei, he thinks that Fang Wei should’ve liked his performance today.

On the way back to the company, He Chaoshu didn’t say much. He answered a call from Yi Nan halfway to the company. He left Wen Jianing on the side of the road and asked Wen Jianing to take a taxi back because he was going to pick up Yi Nan.

Two days later, Wen Jianing did not receive any news from Fang Wei. At this time, there have been reports that the crew of “October Fireworks” is about to go to a small town in the mainland for shooting.

It can be said that Wen Jianing is still feel a little lost in his heart.

That afternoon, Wen Jianing received a call from Lu Jinlang. Lu jinlang asked him, “So, if I don’t look for you, you won’t look for me?”

Wen Jianing replied, “I’m afraid you think I’m pestering you and that I’m annoying.”

Lu Jinlang pondered, and said, “It makes sense. Men are more cheap. The more you ignore, the more I want to see you. Are you available tonight?”

Wen Jianing, feeling guilty to Film Emperor Lu said: “I will check my schedule. If there are no other arrangements, I can consider Mr. Lu’s invitation.”

Lu Jinlang smiled and said, “Then check it quickly. I’ll ask Yunan to pick you up later.”

At around five o’clock in the afternoon, Lu Yunan drove to pick up Wen Jianing and sent him to a private club on the hillside in the suburbs. The club’s name is Lanlu. Because of its elegant environment and expensive price, many celebrities and wealthy businessmen go there to spend their money. Wen Jianing was once a member here.

Lu Yunan always sends him into the private room straight away, but at this time Lu Jinlang hadn’t arrived yet.

Lu Yunan asked him to wait a for a while since Mr. Lu would arrive soon and leave first.

This is a private room with Japanese house style and the room is spacious. The room is surrounded by a clear canal, and there is even a small water wheel around it. The room floor has a square flooring in the middle with a wooden floor, a square low table on it and two cushions next to it.

There is a small wooden arch bridge across the canal at the entrance, and there is also a small wooden bridge directly opposite the window, which leads directly to the window.

Wen Jianing walked over and opened the window. The fresh and cool air on the hillside suddenly came to his face. The running water in the house led to the outside of the house. A small pond was built under the window. In the evening, a fog condensed on the pond.

Such a comfortable environment is also the reason why this place is popular.

The waiter came in, poured a cup of tea, and exited the room.

Wen Jianing waited for nearly ten minutes before Lu Jinlang opened the sliding door outside, took off his shoes and walked in.

“I’ve been waiting for a long time,” Wen Jianing said, as Lu Jinlang took off his coat. The attendant reached out to help him pick up his coat and hang it on the hanger in the corner of the room.

Lu Jinlang said, “There was a traffic jam, so I was late.”

Then he sat down on the cushion at the table and said to the waiter: “You can start serving the food.”

Wen Jianing also sat down opposite him.

Lu Jinlang said, “There is a chef here who is good at Cantonese cuisine. You can try it.” Lu Jinlang likes to cook, so he is particularly picky about food.

Wen Jianing has been here in the past, but he doesn’t know which chef has any specialties.

Lu Jinlang took a sip of tea and said to him, “How’s the movie audition?”

Wen Jianing didn’t answer directly, and looked up at him.

Lu Jinlang smiled, “Don’t try to get fat in one bite*. Now this opportunity is very good for you, you should seize it.”

Wen Jianing said: “Fang Wei doesn’t seem to like me.”

Lu Jinlang still smiled slightly, there was no look of surprise on his face. Obviously, he already knew about it. He said to Wen Jianing, “Do you know why Fang Wei doesn’t like you?”

Wen Jianing was actually a little puzzled. He looked at Lu jinlang and waited for his answer.

Lu Jinlang was about to speak, but the waiter knocked on the door and came in to serve the food.

He only ordered a few dishes, but each one seemed to be exquisite. It was arranged on a porcelain plate and carefully placed on the low table. After the dishes were served, the wine was poured for the two people, and the waiter stepped out gently.

Before she left, Lu Jinlang said, “I will do it myself, you don’t have to come in.”

The waiter responded and helped them close the room door.

Wen Jianing was still waiting for the answer to what Lu Jinlanghad just said, but he saw that Lu Jinlang was already holding his chopsticks. He couldn’t help picking up his chopsticks and reaching out to hold Lu Jinlang’s chopsticks, and said, “You haven’t said why yet.”

Lu Jinlang looked at him with a faint smile, “Do you want to know why there’s no sign?”

Wen Jianing knew that the other party liked to tease him like this. So even if he was impatient, he would not show it. He simply grabbed the cushion under his ass and moved to Lu Jinlang’s side, and then raised his leg and sat face to face on Lu jinlang.

“Can’t you tell me?” Wen Jianing asked him.

Lu Jinlang leaned back slightly, resting one hand on the wooden floor, and the other hand touching Wen Jianing’s waist.

Wen Jianing grabbed his hand and said, “I don’t approve of doing these things before dinner. First, you have to wash your hands later. Second, it’s easy for everyone to lose their appetite.”

Lu jinlang smiled and didn’t continue. He said, “Fang Wei thinks you’re too beautiful. He’s afraid you’ll steal the show.”

Hearing what Lu Jinlang said, Wen Jianing suddenly realized that if he were the director, he might not be willing to choose an actor with Ke Xinhang’s appearance to play this role, because he really doesn’t look like a good student with an introverted character and low self-esteem.

Lu Jinlang said, “But he finally agreed. It is estimated that you will receive the notice tomorrow.”

Wen Jianing looked at him, “Because of your connection?”

Lu Jinlang did not admit or deny, “Li Jiazhen persuaded him.”

Wen Jianing was suddenly curious. Fang Wei was a little paranoid, he didn’t understand what reason Li Jiazhen could use to persuade him to change a decision he had already made.

Lu Jinlang seemed to see his doubts. He raised his hand and slightly removed Wen Jianing’s bangs, revealing his white and smooth forehead. He said: “A person’s beauty is not only from looking at their face. The eyes, temperament and even speech are more important than a face. There are too many beautiful people in this circle, but there are only a few with amazing beauty.”

Wen Jianing soon understood what Lu Jinlang meant. Of course it’s not like he didn’t understand this reason. He just didn’t understand why this reason was enough to move Fang Wei, “Who dares to assure him that I have the acting skills to support such a role?”

Lu Jinlang said, “Didn’t he watch your audition personally? Of course you impressed him with your performance.”

Wen Jianing looked at Lu Jinlang directly. He doesn’t know why, but Lu Jinlang’s words just moved him a bit.

Although his posture is not appropriate, Wen Jianing found it very difficult to talk about acting with Lu Jinlang in a serious manner. In the past, even if he wanted to, Lu Jinlang would not say such words to him.

Lu Jinlang reached out and touched his face and asked, “what? Are you going to fulfill your promise here?”

Wen Jianing said: “No. I heard that “October Fireworks” will be filmed on location first?”

Lu Jinlang replied, “Well, I will join the team next week.”

Wen Jianing has read the script of “October Fireworks” and knows that Lu Jinlang plays a very important role. This is a love literary film with a slightly dull plot. According to Fang Wei’s habit, it is estimated that there will be a large number of long shots, which will test the protagonist’s acting skills.

Lu Jinlang suddenly used more strength on his hand, pressing Wen Jianing’s head close to him, then gently bit his ear, and said in a vague and low voice: “I’m waiting for you over there.”

In that instant, Wen Jianing even felt his body tingling slightly.

But Lu jinlang let go of him and said, “Let’s eat.”

Wen Jianing stepped down from him and moved back to his seat.

In the middle of the meal, they didn’t know when it began to rain. At first, it was only a light rain. Later, the rain became heavier and heavier, and the sky suddenly became dark.

Lu Jinlang’s plan is to go down the mountain after dinner, but in this heavy rain, the mountain road is wet and slippery, and the road visibility is not good. He is afraid that there might be an accident if he’s careless.

So after seeing the change of weather, Lu Jinlang called Lu Yunan and told him not to rush up the mountain until the rain is lighter.

After coming out of the restaurant, Lu Jinlang asked him if he wanted to go to the sauna.

Wen Jianing looked at him coldly.

Lu Jinlang immediately said: “I didn’t mean it that way, I just didn’t think about it that much.”

Just outside of the restaurant, they met two people coming out of the private room next door. The first one was a man dressed very politely, and the one behind was a sexy young woman.

As soon as the man saw Lu Jinlang, he smiled and greeted loudly, “Oh, if it isn’t the Film Emperor Lu, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen you.”

Wen Jianing turned his head and saw the man who was approaching. He even knew him. His name was Yang Wenchong. He comes from a powerful family and is a famous prince. In his early thirties, his biggest hobby was sleeping with female stars.

In the past, Wen Jianing also had dinner with Yang Wenchong. Although the other party was polite to him, it could be seen that he was an arrogant person. In his eyes, these so-called stars were probably just a group of entertainers.

Yang Wenchong’s attitude towards Lu Jinlang was completely different from that of Wen Jianing at the time. Without the restrained attitude, he was obviously more intimate.

Wen Jianing can’t help but think of some rumors about Lu Jinlang’s family background.

Lu Jinlang’s attitude towards Yang Wenchong is no different from that towards others. He just nodded and said, “Young Master Yang, long time no see.”

Yang Wenchong has walked into him, raised his arm on his shoulder, looked at Wen Jianing, and asked, “Were you having a dinner?”

Lu Jinlang replied, “We’ve just finished.”

Yang Wenchong said: “It’s raining outside. What’s your plan?”

Lu Jinlang glanced at Wen Jianing and replied, “Go for a walk.”

“Why are you going?” Yang Wenchong said, “Don’t go, it’s rare to meet you today. How about a game with your brother?”

Lu Jinlang did not immediately answer, but explained to Wen Jianing: “Snooker, are you interested?”

Yang Wenchong also looked at Wen Jianing, looking excited.

Wen Jianing nodded after hearing this, “Let’s go.”
