Chapter 136 The Punishment of Tongue Kiss
A restaurant near Hengdian Film and Television City.
He said he would never return until he was drunk, but in order not to affect the filming the next day, Xu Kun only got a few beers in the end.
We chatted about past events, ate food, and quickly drank more than a dozen bottles of beer.
Xu Kun and Li Yixiang were fine, but Baoqiang couldn't bear it any longer. He ran to the bathroom and vomited, but came back very happy.
He said that he met a fan in the corridor who knew the title of "Best Newcomer of the Golden Horse" and asked him for his autograph.
After he won the Golden Horse Rookie of the Year award at the end of last year, he was so excited that he thought he was on top, but reality gave him a hard blow.
Except for a few acquaintances, almost no one in the circle pays attention to this matter - not everyone knows who the Golden Horse Best Actor and Golden Horse Best Actress are, let alone the best newcomer.
This made Baoqiang very frustrated for a time.
That's why Baoqiang was so happy when he suddenly met a fan today who recognized him as the 'Best Newcomer of the Golden Horse'.
He danced and said: "Brother Kun, that handsome guy said he particularly admired my acceptance speech at the Golden Horse Awards, and said he watched the live broadcast with you!"
"Watch the live broadcast with me?"
Xu Kun was stunned for a moment, then realized that he was talking about Hu Ge, who played Li Xiaoyao. He didn't run into him last time when he went to the cliff for location scouting, and he never expected to bump into him in the restaurant.
But it’s not surprising if you think about it carefully. Although there are many restaurants in Hengdian, there are only four or five that are high-end and famous.
Since Hu Ge only asked Bao Qiang for his autograph and had no intention of establishing friendship, Xu Kun did not go to him specifically.
Instead, it was because of Hu Ge that he thought of Cai Yinong.
So he handed Li Yixiang a wet towel, letting Li Yixiang sober up a little, and said sternly: "Brother Li, there is something I'm afraid I have to give you a vaccination first. Cai Yinong of Tang Dynasty has installed an eyeliner on our crew. Before you I’m afraid his performance over the past few days has been noticed by him.”
Xu Kun once suspected that Zhu Yawen was a spy, but after screening, it was probably not this kid who did it - although he was Liu Yifei's licking dog, Liu Yifei was not an artist from the Tang Dynasty.
Moreover, there are also people in the crew who have worked hard to develop in the magic city. It is completely normal for these people to be bribed by Tang people.
"You mean?"
Li Yixiang frowned slightly.
"This Cai Yinong is a habitual offender of inciting public opinion. It's not the critical moment yet. When the time comes to compete for ratings, she may make a fuss about this matter."
Having said this, Xu Kun raised his hand and put it on Li Yixiang's shoulder, apologetically saying: "Brother Li, you may need to come forward to clarify at that time."
A trace of pain flashed across Li Yixiang's face, but he still said resolutely: "It should be, this matter is my problem in the first place."
"Don't worry, we will work together to come up with a comprehensive solution. It is best to explain the matter clearly and decently."
What Xu Kun meant was that clarification is a matter of clarification, but you can't tell the whole truth. It's best to be 70% true and 30% false, so as to leave face to Li Yixiang.
Li Yixiang nodded silently and suddenly asked: "Do you want to tell Zeng Lai about this?"
"this……"
Xu Kun hesitated for a moment and said sincerely: "If she is still your girlfriend, then I will definitely have to tell her in advance, but now... I think it is better not to affect her filming."
In fact, even without this news, Zeng Lai was still affected.
When filming later, she was obviously emotional. Others may not have felt that deeply, but Xu Kun felt it clearly and truly.
During the kissing scene, she actually stuck out her tongue!
I don't know how Xu Kun got better at that time. Although she and Li Yixiang have broken up now, she is also the ex-sister-in-law...well, at least the quasi-ex-sister-in-law!
He did not dare to say anything afterward, so as not to irritate Li Yixiang again.
According to Xu Kun's own secret analysis, Zeng Hong probably broke the jar to retaliate against Li Yixiang.
From Li Yixiang's point of view, it's normal for him to be unbearable when he sees his girlfriend making out with his little brother.
But if we turn to Zeng Lai’s perspective.
I had concerns at first because it was you, Li Yixiang, who encouraged me to take on this drama, but now I said it was unacceptable and unilaterally announced the breakup.
This extreme double standard, what does it take for me and the relationship between two people? !
Zeng Cheng was filled with dissatisfaction, anger, and unwillingness, and it was quite normal for him to want to take revenge.
But normal is normal, you can't just keep coming over and over again, right?
How could Mr. Xu withstand such teasing?
However, due to Li Yixiang's presence, he did not dare to react excessively. This is simply a kind of torture, and it’s not an exaggeration to call it ‘tongue torture’!
By the third time, Xu Kun couldn't bear it anymore and tried to close his teeth, hoping to make Zeng Lai retreat.
As a result, instead of retreating, Zeng Ling became more and more crazy. In the end, Xu Kun didn't know whether he had bitten the other person or whether the other person had scratched his skin.
I just remember the slightly sweet smell of blood wafting in my mouth...
Afterwards, Xu Kun felt that he had to talk openly and honestly, so he quietly found Zeng Lai and prepared to persuade her to turn around and stop immediately.
There was still a sickly flush on Zeng's face, but he said fiercely and provocatively: "Why, are you afraid?!"
"What do I have to be afraid of? I walk and sit upright - at least in this matter!"
The last 'conditional restriction' made Xu Kun somewhat unsure of his words, but if he didn't add this restriction, he would feel guilty.
"Then there's nothing more to say."
Zeng Lai dropped this sentence and walked away without saying a word.
Damn~
What do I owe you?
You are no longer my sister-in-law!
Xu Kun was getting angry when suddenly there was a call from a number that he had never contacted since he had saved it in his phone.
…………
Since the "negotiation" with Zeng Lai broke down, Xu Kun has moved forward all the drama to protect his strength.
In the next half month, Bao Qiang was treated like a leading actor, even better than Xu Kun, the real protagonist.
Everyone felt that this was a delaying tactic that Xu Kun came up with out of desperation to avoid conflicts and embarrassments. Only a few acquaintances knew about the breakup of Li Yixiang and Zeng Lai. Others thought that these three people were still there. In the midst of the Cold War.
And even those who knew it felt that he wanted to slow down.
Zeng Lai, who was at the edge of his dilemma, saw this scene and admired Xu Kun's loyalty on the one hand, but on the other hand he was angry and refused to admit defeat. He thought that when the filming of this part is finished, let's see what other tricks you can use.
March 7th.
That afternoon, all of Wang Baoqiang's scenes were completed, and he died at the hands of Master Jingping without any suspense.
Xu Kun gave him a red envelope, and Bao Qiang said with a smile that he would go out and buy some fruit to reward himself—the red envelope for playing a corpse must be spent on the same day according to the rules.
"Don't worry, just open the red envelope and take a look."
Baoqiang followed Xu Kun's instructions and opened the red envelope, and found that in addition to ten yuan, there was also a ticket to Beijing tonight and an unfamiliar mobile phone number.
"Brother Kun, what does this mean?"
He raised his head, his face full of confusion.
Xu Kun smiled and said: "Director Feng Xiaogang called me half a month ago and said that in his new movie "A World Without Thieves", there is an important role that is very suitable for you - the protagonist is Liu Dehua, and Uncle Ge plays the villain. You Go ahead and perform well, don’t ruin your ‘Golden Horse Best Newcomer’ sign.”
"real?!"
Bao Qiang's eyes widened in disbelief. Feng Xiaogang has been the most popular director at the box office in recent years, and Zhang Yimou's "Hero" can beat him.
Now he actually said that he has an important role for him, and he will act together with Andy Lau and Ge You.
If Brother Kun hadn't said this, he wouldn't have believed it!
"Can I still lie to you?"
Xu Kun smiled and said: "We agreed to let you go there in mid-March, but there are still three days to go. When you get to the capital, have a good rest, and then make this call to contact Director Feng."
"Brother Kun, I, I..."
Baoqiang was so excited that he was incoherent and wanted to step forward and give Xu Kun a big hug.
"Come less."
Xu Kun pushed him away in disgust, hesitated, and handed over a ticket: "Ask Brother Li if he is willing to fight for a role in Director Feng's new film."
