Thousands of stars

Chapter 16 Willing to gamble and admit defeat
After Mr. Li's repeated inspections, I was finally allowed to return to the production crew to resume work. Since the filming is coming to an end, the intensity of work is much less than before.

The relatively loose job allowed me to spare time to go to the hospital to accompany my mother. Her illness has almost recovered, but the doctor suggested to stay in the hospital for observation for a period of time.

When I was peeling oranges for my mother in the hospital, my mother suddenly asked me: "Qianxing, is Ah Niu very busy recently?"

"Why are you asking this all of a sudden?" I asked.

"It's nothing. It's just that I found out that when he came to visit me recently, he kept calling me. Every time he was in a hurry, he always threw it out to answer the phone. He shouldn't be having an affair behind your back, right? "

I was speechless: "Mom, what are you thinking about? He is busy with work, so it's not easy to find time to see you. Don't think about what you have and what you don't have."

"I'm relieved when you say that. In fact, a man doesn't have to be able to make a lot of money. It mainly depends on his character. As long as he is honest and has a sense of responsibility, it is enough to have a heart for you. Don't be like your father..." She seemed to remember something again, and her eyes suddenly turned red.

I quickly persuaded her: "Mom, don't be sad, you still have me, I will be very filial to you."

"I know you are filial, but you are suffering too..." She seemed to be thinking a lot today, and her mood was relatively low, which made me feel depressed all of a sudden.

In order to prevent the tragedy of our mother and I crying in the hospital, I hurriedly put my mother to sleep, and then hurried out of the ward, afraid that I would be too late to think about it.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I closed the door of the ward, I ran into Li Yaofan head-on.

"Are you here?" I said, wiping the corners of my eyes with my hands.

"Are you crying?" he asked.

"You're crying!" I sniffed, "I'm trachoma."

"Since when did you have this disease?"

I was a little embarrassed, and decided not to continue this topic, and asked: "You are so busy, you don't have to take time to see my mother every day, anyway, she has a bad memory, and after a few days she forgets you, you don't have to pretend to be like that every day." The cow worked so hard."

"Actually, that's pretty good." He said in a low voice.

I looked up at him, the lights in the hospital were not too bright at night, which made his aggressive aura disappear, replaced by a wonderful sense of intimacy.

"By the way, I'm here to show you something." He said suddenly, and took out his phone.

I leaned over to look, and saw a photo on the screen, it was a torn document, zoomed in, and the words "Lin's Group" and "financing" were faintly written on it, which made me feel very excited.

"It's just a photo. Because the document is badly damaged, I'm still looking for someone to restore it. Believe me, it won't take long for your father's case to come to light." He looked at me and said.

Although I was very moved, my mood was still very complicated. I lowered my head and said softly: "Actually, you don't have to do this for me, my dad..."

He stopped me from continuing: "I should have done it seven years ago, but I didn't. I owe you these things."

"Stop talking." I covered his mouth, "Things are over, I don't want to talk about those unhappy things anymore, take me to have a midnight snack, I'm a little hungry."

"Okay." He nodded, with a look of disappointment in his eyes.

I understand his thoughts, he wants me to forgive him, but there are some things I can't say, even if the rift between us is restored, it will always leave traces.

Also, with so many things still unresolved, even if we can get over our differences, it doesn't mean we'll be together.Love is not just a kiss, a few words of love, but in the end we have to face marriage and family, can he disregard his mother's obstruction, let go of all hatred and marry me?
I don't want to think deeply about this question, because the answer may be cruel.

Although eating supper was just an excuse, I was indeed hungry. In order to take care of my mother, I rushed here after filming, and I didn't even have time to pick up a lunch box.

"What do you want to eat?" Li Yaofan asked me.

I ruled out those foods that could match Mr. Li's status in my mind, and finally said firmly: "I want to eat spicy crayfish."

Mr. Li's face turned green: "Did you have a grudge against lobster in your previous life?"

I didn't answer, just looked at him helplessly.

He finally compromised and condescended to take me to the lobster restaurant. After watching me order a whole pot of crayfish, he finally couldn't help asking: "Your taste has changed so much?"

"It's not that my taste has changed, it's that I didn't have the chance to eat it before, so I don't know it's delicious. You haven't eaten it either? Do you want to try it? I promise you will fall in love with it after you taste it!" I enthusiastically Passed a crayfish into his bowl.

He looked at me like he was looking at an alien.

"If you don't eat it, you don't have a good taste." I muttered, and took the lobster back again. I was about to eat it, but suddenly remembered something, and raised my head and said, "By the way, tomorrow is the last scene. The crew has prepared a lobster. The finale, are you coming?"

In fact, I just wanted to repay him for inviting me to eat crayfish, but Mr. Li didn't seem to think so, and asked shamelessly, "Are you planning to bring your family?"

He never forgets to take advantage of me even when he eats, so I glared at him: "It's just a meal together, so forget it if you don't go."

"I didn't say no." He shrugged, "I will try to find time to come."

"That's really hard for you, busy man!" I gave him a blank look, but I was secretly happy in my heart.

The next day, the crew ushered in the last scene.

It's a special day for me, and not just because my first, and possibly last, feature is coming to an end.More importantly, today is the last day of my three-month period with Li Yaofan.

Although that absurd bet has long since ceased to exist, when I think of how many things I have experienced in these three months, I can't help but lament the trick of good fortune.In another three months, what kind of relationship will become between us, I really can't predict.

"Qianxing, will you go to the finale banquet tonight?" Sister Le asked me during the break.

"Nonsense, I'm the heroine, of course I'm going."

"I don't really want to go." Sister Le seemed worried.

"What's wrong with you?" I asked curiously.

Sister Le hesitated for a while, and finally told me in a low voice: "Didn't you tell the reporter that you had nothing to do with Li Yaofan? Because of this, there were a lot of rumors in the crew, saying that Yafan Group would divest and no one would get it." remuneration."

"Who is so shameless to spread such words?" I was a little angry.

"Who else could it be?" Sister Le pursed her lips, "Isn't it the deputy director Liu? He recently fell in love with the actress with the biggest breasts in the crew, Hu Yiyi, and the two had a hot fight. I've inquired about it. Those bad words of yours came from both of them, this couple is really fucking shameless!"

"This kind of people, it's best to ignore them." Knowing that this was said by the assistant director, I accepted it. Anyway, I never had any hope for his character.

Having said that, but when it came time to finish the green banquet, I still made this couple disgusted.

At that time, I was waiting for Li Yaofan. He left me a text message in the morning, saying that he would attend on time, but he did not show up for the wrapping banquet.

Sister Le saw that I was out of my mind and asked me if I was waiting for someone, but I didn't expect Hu Yiyi to hear me.

She immediately said loudly: "Qianxing, are you waiting for someone? A boyfriend? You broke up with Li Yaofan and you have a new love. The tricks are very powerful! Could it be Xia Sijie?"

Everyone in the film crew knew that I had messed up Xia Sijie's engagement, and it was rumored that I was the mistress, but everyone gave me face and always avoided talking about it.Hu Yiyi didn't know if she was drunk, or because she had the support of the assistant director, she actually challenged me in front of so many people, so I naturally wouldn't let her.

I smiled and said, "Sister Hu, you are so powerful. You kill young and old, even married men can bow down under your pomegranate skirt."

After I finished speaking, everyone turned their eyes to Deputy Director Liu, and their expressions immediately changed.

"Shen Qianxing, even if you are the heroine, you can't talk nonsense, apologize to Yiyi!" Assistant Director Liu obviously started to protect his shortcomings.

Not to mention Hu Yiyi, a young actor, even when Luo Wei was so powerful back then, I never fell behind. "Assistant Director, I'm joking with Sister Hu, why are you so anxious? I'm sure I won't say that you have anything to do with Sister Hu, you can be his godfather!"

Sister Le and Wei Wei burst out laughing, the assistant director's face was as green as Qingming fruit on the dinner table, Hu Yiyi was even more embarrassed, her face turned red.

"Shen Qianxing!" Angry, "Don't talk too much, you still think you have a backer? Without Li Yaofan, who are you?"

"I don't count onions, you count."

Sister Le laughed so hard that she couldn't stand upright again.

The assistant director couldn't agree with me, so he turned the topic to Yafan Group's investment, pointed at my nose and cursed: "Don't get too complacent, if Yafan Group withdraws its capital, everyone's money will be wasted , when the time comes, you will be the sinner of the crew, I see what you will pay for it!"

As soon as this was mentioned, the lively wine table immediately became quiet.

After working hard for so long, it doesn't matter if I have a dream, but I can't do it without money.Recently, due to the rumors spread by the assistant director and Hu Yiyi, people in the crew were panicked, but now that the assistant director put this matter on the table, no one has a clue.

I was very angry and wanted to slap the table to confront him, but Li Yaofan hadn't appeared yet, so I couldn't help but feel worried.

The relationship between us, not to mention the future, is very unstable now, who knows what will happen tomorrow, what if the situation like the assistant director said really happens?
Seeing that I couldn't answer, the assistant director became more and more complacent, and said arrogantly: "What's the matter, are you speechless? Shen Qianxing, listen to me, if we don't get the hard-earned money of all of us, I will definitely..."

"What will happen?"

A menacing voice suddenly sounded in the quiet box. I turned around in surprise and found that Li Yaofan was standing at the door with one hand in his pocket and the other leaning against the door frame. He asked unhurriedly, "Deputy Director Liu, what's so strange If you have a wonderful idea, why don't you just tell me."

At that moment, Deputy Director Liu's head, which looked like a Qingming fruit, was so dark that it was about to rot.

Although I am not a vain person, the appearance of Li Yaofan still made me completely vain. Seeing the faces of the assistant director and Hu Yiyi from petrification to embarrassment, from embarrassment to flattery, and finally to despair, my heart It was so cool, I couldn't help but snicker beside him.

At this time, Sister Le and the others had vacated the seat next to me spontaneously.Li Yaofan walked towards me through the crowd. Even in a casual T-shirt and jeans, he couldn't hide his extraordinary aura, which overshadowed the group of people around him.

His appearance was undoubtedly a reassurance for the entire crew. The silent scene just now disappeared, and the box became extremely lively again.

Amid all the noise, I asked Li Yaofan, "You're late."

"Are you afraid I won't come?" he asked.

Although I did think so, I still stiffened my mouth: "It's up to you whether you come or not, I don't care."

"Do you have to be brave in front of me?"

"To each other." I laughed dryly twice.

At this time, Director Wang came over with a wine glass. He was already a little drunk, and he spoke louder than usual: "Mr. Li, it's not easy to invite you. Let me toast you."

"Sorry, I'm driving." Li Yaofan declined.

"That's not interesting for you! How can you not drink when everyone is here? At worst, I'll find someone to send you back when you're drunk!" I guess Director Wang was too drunk, so he was so bold that he wanted to pass the wine to Li Yaofan.

I understand Li Yaofan's character. He said that no one can persuade him to come in. In order not to make the scene awkward, I had to sacrifice myself, took the glass and said, "Director Wang, he can't drink while driving. I'll take it for him. drink."

"Our little Shen is so forthright! Heroine of girls!" Director Wang immediately turned his attention to me, toasting me again and again.

"That's enough, no more drinking." After Wang Dao and his group left, Li Yaofan's expression turned a little ugly.

"How impolite is it to turn it down on this occasion? Don't worry, I can drink well, and I'm not as vulnerable as you think."

"I'm afraid you'll have sex after drinking," he said.

"Don't worry, I won't look for you if there is a mess." I deliberately confronted him.

Unexpectedly, his face suddenly turned dark, and he grabbed my hand holding the wine glass and said, "How dare you."

I was startled, and found that the joke seemed to be overdone, this man who is so possessive and perverted actually took my joke seriously.

Maybe it's because I'm easily impulsive after drinking. Seeing Li Yaofan suddenly threatening me, my stubbornness came up and I challenged him: "I really dare." After that, I shook off his hand and took a glass of wine He walked towards the photographer Qiao Sen.

This guy is very tall. Although he is an American, he speaks Chinese very fluently, which is also a bit interesting to me.I didn't want to play Qiao Sen, but I just wanted to teach Li Yaofan a lesson when I got drunk, and let him know that I am not unwanted.

In the end, Li Yaofan cut off my wine glass halfway before I touched it.

"I'm sorry, we still have something to do, so let's go first." After he finished speaking, he took my hand and walked out without any explanation.

No one dared to stop Mr. Li's atrocities, even Sister Le, who vowed to do harm to her friend, watched Li Yaofan take me away, and finally gave me a mournful look.

I was so pissed off by this man, one moment he was acting in an idol drama "hero saves the beauty", but the next moment he changed his face, looking like he wanted to settle accounts with me.

"Li Yaofan!" I was dragged by him all the way to the outside of the hotel, and I managed to shake off his hand in front of his car.I said, "Why are you crazy? So many people leave as soon as they say it, and everyone finally got together to have a meal, and you disturbed it!"

With a straight face and no words, he took a step closer to me.

I knew something was wrong, I hurriedly took two steps back, and thought triumphantly, you will forcefully kiss me to seal my mouth, my old lady has said so many times, if I let you get your way, I won't come out to mess around!
Just as he was complacent, he didn't notice that there was a step under his feet, and he sat down on the ground suddenly.

I was stunned, and Li Yaofan was also stunned. After an unknown amount of time, he suddenly started laughing, very happily.

My ears were burning hot from his laughter, and I felt that I had lost all my face in this life today, so I quickly stood up from the ground, rolled up my sleeves, and planned to fight to the death with the guy who laughed at me.As a result, before it even started, Li Yaofan grabbed his hand.

"Ah Xing, don't make trouble." Once this guy became gentle, the address became very nasty.

I got goosebumps all over my body when I was called A Xing by him. When I was distracted, he suddenly put his hand on my butt and asked, "Does it hurt?"

My whole body was petrified, and it didn't hurt just now, but after eating tofu like this, I suddenly felt that my ass was not my own.I took his hand away and said, "If you want to ask, just ask, don't touch your hands, are you a hooligan?"

"I care about you." He said seriously.

It's cheap to be a good boy, what a shame!
I rubbed my butt that had just eaten tofu, and said, "I won't talk to you anymore, take me to the hospital, where my mother is still waiting for me."

"Happy to help." He finally let me go, turned around and opened the car door for me.

The road from the hotel to the hospital was a bit long. Although the few glasses of wine just now did not make me drunk, they still had some stamina. I felt a little dizzy and drowsy in the passenger seat.

In a daze, I suddenly heard Li Yaofan calling me.

"What's wrong?" I opened my eyes and asked.

"Are you asleep?"

"Isn't this nonsense? I can still talk to you if I'm asleep?" I felt that something was wrong with him tonight. Just from calling me by title, I felt that something was wrong with him.

At this time, he suddenly stopped the car.

It was already very dark, and there were almost no cars on the surrounding roads. He stopped here suddenly, which made me feel very strange. There is always the illusion that someone is going to be dragged into the wilderness, raped and then killed.

"What's the matter with you?" I asked.

"Today is the last day," he said.

The last day?It took me a long time to remember that he was referring to the March period.Today is the last day, the clock is about to jump to 12 o'clock, and the bet is over in a few minutes.

"You don't want to fight with me, do you?" I asked.

"No." He shook his head, "The winner has already been decided."

I froze for a moment, looking into his eyes, there were no stars in the sky tonight, but his eyes were shining, the gentle and charming light made me feel a little lost for a while.Maybe it was the alcohol, and I asked him, "Who won?"

"I'll show you something, and you'll know." He said to me mysteriously.

I was very curious in my heart, and of course I was looking forward to it. At this time, the clock on the car showed that there was still half a minute before tomorrow, but the time seemed to be very slow.

I watched him put his hand into his pocket, as if he was about to take out something, at this moment, a dazzling light suddenly shot towards us.

All this happened within a few seconds. I looked up and saw a car coming towards us at a very fast speed. My mind went blank and I smelled death for the first time.

At this moment, Li Yaofan suddenly rushed over and hugged me in his arms.

Then there was a violent impact, the sound of the car's engine, the sound of glass breaking, and my screaming sounded at the same time, and the huge vibration almost shattered me.

"Li Yaofan..." At the moment when he fainted, I saw a large area of ​​blood, and his weak eyes gradually lost their light in the stare with me, and finally closed powerlessly.

don't want!don't want!
My eyes went dark, and finally, I fell into endless darkness...
