Chapter 267 The Stars Gathered
"Xinyi! You usually have such a heavy workload with your studies, why do you always come to help? A girl... What does it sound like to come to the construction site all the time..."
"It's okay uncle, the pressure to study is not that great. I I think it’s good.”
“It’s been a hard work for you during this period. You’ve been responsible for so many house constructions.”
“It’s not hard, uncle. I’ll go work on this place first. That's not how it was done..."
In Nunawading, which is a district bordering Blackburn, Shen Xinyi wore a safety helmet and held a drawing in her hand to ensure that the project was carried out accurately.
After chatting with her uncle for a while, she suddenly discovered that a worker did not construct the work according to the drawings. He immediately trotted over to make corrections to ensure the accuracy of the construction.
The middle-aged man who was talking to her just now couldn't help but shook his head with a wry smile.
During this period, Shen Xinyi was busy in various places in Mo Village, helping her uncle participate in house construction, and learned a lot from it.
The most important thing is that she focuses on her work, and her love affairs are put aside. Now she doesn't dare to think about herself and Chen Xi.
"I just got out of school! You called me to that damn party again."
"Haha, how was that Ocean Horse last time? What was it called?"
" Oksana ”
"You remember it very clearly! This time we are not going on a yacht, and there are no ocean horse rides. This time we are all Chinese. I will take you to see stars."
"Stars? Who?”
"You'll know when we meet, there are so many! You probably can only see these on TV."
City, in the office.
Looking at the mysterious A Lin, Chen Xi felt a little strange.
Various celebrities often come to Mo Village, and it’s not like he has never seen them before. Many of them are graduates of RMIT. Celebrities such as Xun Zun and Gillian all came from that school.
There are also celebrities such as Jie Lun, JJ, Jackie Chan and others who like to come to Mo Village.
Especially Jie Lun, Chen Xi has seen her several times on the street. He liked to watch the street singers singing on the roadside in the city center.
Jackie Chan was naturally Chen Xi’s idol when he was a child. He liked to come to Mo Village to taste delicious food, and also came here to take pictures and shoot scenes.
For example, a certain person often comes to visit his alma mater and I have seen him at RMIT before.
This time A Lin said there was more than one celebrity, and he couldn’t guess what it was about.
"What the hell, why did you bring me here? Get a room! I'm not interested in men." Crown Hotel, this is the upper floor of Casino. Chen Xi used to sleep here often. Naturally It's extremely familiar.
"I want to eat shit! I'm not interested in your sex. There are many celebrities here this time. Of course, the place is more private."
"What is this? A party?"
“You will know when you go there.”
Chen Xi immediately connected with a certain scene, but quickly shook his head, and suddenly remembered that he seemed to have attended a party before, and there were many celebrities. Could it be...
Then A friend brought him here, and he could only go there if he was invited.
"Hello, please come with me." A good-looking Chinese woman wearing a professional skirt came over and made an invitation gesture to the two of them.
“Do you know this woman?”
“No.”
“Then she will greet you when she comes up.”
“Nonsense. They must have seen the appearance of the people who came today. If they can’t remember this, they are not qualified to work here.”
"Yes."
Casino has cameras and has been connected to the database a long time ago. As soon as you come in, you are captured by the camera and all the information is clearly visible. .
Follow the receptionist woman into the elevator and soon arrive at the fourteenth floor.
The familiar floor made Chen Xi search for memories from his previous life.
Two security guards were guarding the door. As soon as they saw the visitor, they immediately greeted him politely and took the initiative to get out of the way.
The door slowly opened, revealing a huge room. There were doors on either side of the room, obviously leading somewhere else.
At this time, many people had gathered in the room. In front of several gambling tables, players are playing cards with great interest and immersed in the fun of the game.
Chen Xi looked around, and familiar faces that could only be seen on TV were appearing in front of him.
"Why aren't you surprised at all? Look, that's Shuishui, but she's a very popular female star! Look at that, that's a big star from HK, if I can be with her..."
"Well, I'm surprised! I'm so surprised that I can't speak." Chen Xi made a surprised gesture. He had already been here in his previous life, so naturally he wouldn't show much of anything. Now he can only pretend Here comes the first time.
As for Shuishui, he doesn't care about HK stars at all. He never thought those celebrities were good-looking, and he couldn't figure out why there were so many people praising them online.
"Many famous Chinese people came to Mo Village today. You can get to know them."
"Yes. Just go and get to know them."
Chen Xi He spread his hands nonchalantly.
"I have serious things to do, so of course I have to get to know those female celebrities. Let us divide the work. I will greet the women, and you will greet the men."
"Fuck you, I'm not a gay."
As soon as Alin finished speaking, he was punched by Chen Xi. This guy was actually thinking about those things.
Chen Xi had some impressions of some of the people in the room, some he had seen on the news, and some he knew from his previous life. But it had been so long that he could only remember a small number of people's names.
These celebrities who looked serious on TV turned into gamblers and killed everyone at the gambling table. They shouted louder than the other. When I walked in, my cell phone had already been temporarily kept by someone. Otherwise, if I took some photos and posted them online, those fans would definitely be shocked. There is such a big contrast between their idol and their usual appearance. I don’t know what they will think.
The games here are different from those downstairs. Jiajiale and Black Jack are the most played here, followed by Pai Gow.
There are people playing Texas Hold'em on one of the middle tables, but the number of people is relatively small.
A large table in the center was empty, and Chen Xi knew it was used to play stud.
The Shuishui mentioned by A Lin before was sitting at a Jiajiale table. Completely different from the image of the goddess on TV, she is now holding a lady's cigarette and squinting at the cards in her hand. You might even have your feet on the chair if it weren't for the many celebrities around you.
Chen Xi just wanted to laugh when he was watching. In his previous life, he didn't pay much attention and was just playing cards by himself. It does look a little funny now. After all, he will be a big star in the future, and he will also go to Hollywood and make many movies. Now he looks like a gambler.
Next to Shuishui is a Hong Kong star who has also filmed many blockbuster movies. He is considered older among this group of people. It is estimated that many people grew up watching his movies.
Walking around the room, Alin was already talking and laughing with the two female celebrities, but he kept standing there not knowing what to do.
Picked up a drink and found a table to sit down at.
"Sir, do you need chips?" The croupier smiled and looked at him with a very respectful attitude.
When you entered, you were given chips, but Chen Xi put them in his pocket. The croupier probably thought that he had lost all his money, so he didn't need to pay for the chips here, so he could just record them in his account, but there was a limit.
"No, thank you." Chen Xi waved his hand, took out the chips from his pocket and placed them on the table.
He didn't plan to play, he just wanted to find a place to sit and watch the show.
There are only two people playing at this table, which seems a little less popular, a young man in a suit and a middle-aged woman.
The young man should be in business and does not look like an actor, but that woman is very famous. She is an actress from TVB and has also filmed a quite classic TV series "The Deer and the Cauldron".
The character she plays is the ideal wife in many people's minds.
I heard that immigrants came to Tuao, but I didn’t expect it to happen.
It is said that this woman married a rich man, later got divorced, and received part of the property.
In just a few years, he gambled away all the money he got from the divorce, and the rest of his life was miserable.
Now in her thirties, she seems to be taking good care of herself. She quit the entertainment industry before and will make a comeback next year. I probably came here today to get to know those celebrities.
When I watched her role in a TV series before, I felt she was gentle, considerate, and considerate, but I didn’t expect that here she would act wilder than anyone else.
"Oh, why did you lose again? It's so annoying, you're a little older than me every time." The woman slapped the table angrily, not at all like the one on the screen, more like an aunt at a vegetable market.
"Xiao Xia, my table isn't very good either. Come here and try your luck." A female voice sounded. Chen Xi looked up and saw that it was the star Shuishui.
"Sister Shuishui, you came just in time, let's beat her together." Xiao Xia pointed at the female dealer in front of her, who could only show an embarrassed smile.
Shui Shui is two or three years older than Xiao Xia. Both of them were born in the Mainland, but the other one went to Hong Kong to develop his career earlier.
"You two ladies, you can press with me. There is no need to press in the opposite direction. The money has been made by Casino. We should advance and retreat together." The man in the suit who had been silent before spoke.
"Yes, yes, we should advance and retreat together." Xiaoxia nodded in agreement.
"Little handsome boy, let's play together." Seeing that everyone at the table was pushing their chips, only Chen Xi did not respond, Shuishui quickly pulled him to participate.
“No, I’ll just take a look.” Chen Xi declined politely.
"Hee hee~ You must be a master, handsome boy. They say that players are good at gambling. People who only take a gamble after a long time are masters of gambling." Shuishui covered her face and smiled sweetly.
"I'm not an expert, just a novice, haha." Chen Xi pretended that he had never played before.
"Seeing as you are not an actor, you should be from Tu'ao. You are quite young and handsome. If you want me, sister, I can introduce you to a girlfriend." Shuishui looked familiar.
Chen Xi was shocked. The Shuishui he saw in the movie was said to look like a cold goddess and rarely even smiled, but he never expected that she was such a person in real life. .
"I have a girlfriend, thank you sister."
"Hee hee~ Your sister's voice is so nice, my bones are almost brittle." Shuishui teased happily. Chen Xi, he looked the youngest among the people present.
It is said that older people like to tease puppies, even female celebrities are no exception.
"Okay, Sister Shuishui, the cards are about to be opened. Come and see the cards." Xiao Xia pulled her arm anxiously.
"What's the rush? Let me look at the first card first."
After saying that, Shuishui picked up a poker and started reading it. The man and woman next to him stretched their heads to look at it. After that, only Chen Xi remained indifferent and did not participate. Winning or losing did not matter to him at all.
"Doll." Shuishui frowned and threw out the poker in his hand, which was an old King.
“Let’s take a look at the dealer’s cards first.” Xiao Xia gestured towards the dealer.
When the dealer revealed the cards in his hand, all three people were stunned, eight o'clock.
"Why are you anxious? With the handsome boy by your side, you will definitely win." Shuishui showed him a naughty smile.
"Haha." Chen Xi could only smile awkwardly.
"Ha, let me tell you! I will definitely win." A few seconds later, Shuishui laughed and slammed the playing card on the table. It was a nine.
“Oye!”
"Bang!"
Xiao Xia next to her excitedly high-fived the man in the suit.
Shui Shui gathered all the chips in front of him.
