Li Zhenzhen came as soon as she said she would.
Lu Yanhe met her when he went out.
She was holding a handheld DVD, as if wanting to record something at any time.
"Are you going out so early?" Li Zhenzhen was surprised to see him. "You're up so early."
"I have to go to the company for classes." Lu Yanhe had to go to acting classes and was not in the company during the day.
Li Zhenzhen nodded and said, "Is that so? Has Li Zhibai gotten up yet?"
Lu Yanhe shook his head and said, "If he has nothing to do in the morning, he usually doesn't get up until after ten o'clock."
Li Zhenzhen smiled and said, "It seems that he is just making excuses when he says he is lazy."
Lu Yanhe just smiled and didn't respond. He could talk about Li Zhibai's laziness himself, but since they were friends, it was not appropriate for them to say it in front of others. He said, "I'm going to the company first."
Li Zhenzhen suddenly thought of something and asked, "Yan He, I heard from Director Chen that you can write songs, right?"
Lu Yanhe quickly shook his head and said, "I'm not a professional, so I can't really say I can write."
"I've heard your song 'Memorial,' and I really like it." Li Zhenzhen's eyes were filled with sincerity as she said, "I'd like to ask you to write a song for the theme song for this show. Your songwriting style is a good match for this show."
Lu Yanhe felt overwhelmed and immediately refused, saying, "I'm sorry, I'm really not very good at writing songs. You should find a professional."
This is when the truth is revealed.
Lu Yanhe felt that he had to hurry up and learn the musical notation, or at least the most basic one.
Li Zhenzhen looked disappointed.
"All right."
Lu Yanhe nodded to her and turned away.
-
Since June, the weather has become extremely hot.
Even at around 7:30 in the morning, the sun was already like a furnace, starting to heat up this already hot world.
Lu Yanhe got on the subway and just caught the morning rush hour.
There were so many people that he almost vomited.
I feel particularly emotional at this moment. Fortunately, there is a direct bus for him to go to school.
"Buzz", the phone suddenly vibrated.
Lu Yanhe took a look and found that it was a message from Chen Ziyan: Are you going out?
Lu Yanhe typed with difficulty in a cramped space: On the subway.
Chen Ziyan: Do you regret refusing my arrangement of a special car to pick you up now?
After Lu Yanhe took a special car yesterday, he told Chen Ziyan that he would not need it in the future and he could just take the subway.
Lu Yanhe was still a little uncomfortable with being picked up and dropped off by cars. He felt that there was no need to put on such a show when he hadn't even achieved fame yet.
Now that Chen Ziyan was teasing him, Lu Yanhe felt embarrassed.
He did have some regrets.
Chen Ziyan said: But it’s a good thing that you refuse the special car pick-up now. Although I can arrange for the company to provide you with this service, it will still cause some people to talk about you and make you have a bad impression. It is not a work car.
Lu Yanhe: Yeah, I’m worried about that too.
Chen Ziyan: But you have to remember what your core task is. Now you have to learn acting well. When you join the crew in the future, you have to perform your role well. Don’t refuse other people’s preferential treatment because of shyness, embarrassment and other issues. Maintaining your condition is the most basic professional condition for an actor. Don’t be stupid and help this person move things or help that person deliver things on the scene.
The old lady Chen Ziyan is online again.
However, what she said was from the heart.
Lu Yanhe immediately replied with an "OK".
"Oh, young man, you are so handsome!" Suddenly an old lady spoke to him loudly as if no one was around.
She had a very loud voice, and when she sang it out, everyone around her looked over.
In such a crowded carriage, everyone is squeezed like sardines in a can. How many people care what the people around them look like?
But this voice aroused curiosity.
Lu Yanhe instantly became the target of everyone's attention.
He suppressed the panic in his eyes and didn't know how to react for a moment.
It's a completely overwhelming feeling.
"Thank you." He thanked the person awkwardly.
Then, someone recognized him.
"Isn't he Lu Yanhe?"
"Who is Lu Yanhe?"
Lu Yanhe himself didn't know how many times he had heard such a conversation.
He could only smile awkwardly and pretend not to hear.
"Is this young man a star?" the old lady asked curiously when she saw someone recognize him.
Lu Yanhe regretted not wearing headphones so that he could pretend not to hear anything.
But when an old lady kindly compliments him on his good looks, he has to respond politely.
"I guess so." That's all Lu Yanhe could say, smiling shyly.
Who would have thought that at this moment, someone suddenly said sarcastically: "How come these days, anyone can call themselves a star?"
Lu Yanhe looked at the man in surprise.
The man was wearing a black jacket and had a very obvious beer belly. He had a look of disdain on his face and a suture scar about seven centimeters long on his forehead.
"What are you looking at?" When the man saw Lu Yanhe looking at him, he immediately glared at Lu Yanhe with a fierce tone.
This person's attitude was very irritating, but Lu Yanhe didn't want to get into a conflict with him, so he looked away.
However, at this moment, the old lady who had just praised Lu Yanhe for his good looks was no longer happy. She glared at the man with dissatisfaction and said in a bad tone, "What's your attitude? Did the young man provoke you? Let's talk it over nicely!"
The man in the black jacket was scolded by the old lady in person, and he said with a stern face: "I don't like him, it's none of your business!"
The old lady was not afraid at all. She glared with her eyes and her voice immediately became excited.
"Old lady, I'm just minding my own business. What's the matter?" She was also very eloquent. "Do you think you can still act lawless in today's society? The young man was very well behaved and didn't say a word, but you are here talking nonsense, speaking rudely and without any manners or manners. Do you really think everyone is afraid of you?"
The old lady acted as if she had a general son to support her. She puffed out her chest and confronted the man in the black jacket, who was so angry that he couldn't utter a word for a long time.
His cheeks flushed and he wanted to take a step towards her.
But the crowded carriage made it impossible for him to move freely.
"You fucking think no one would dare to touch you when you're old, right?"
"Oh, old lady, I'm over seventy years old, and I don't know how many years it has been since I've seen anyone dare to attack me." The old lady's eyes flashed, "If you have the guts, come and do it!"
Lu Yanhe watched as the two men were about to fight, and he didn't want the old lady to suffer, even though it didn't look like she would suffer.
"Don't bother with him. Just let him say whatever he wants." Lu Yanhe tried to move forward a body length, blocking half of the old lady's view from her and the man in the black jacket.
Seeing this, the old lady said, "Don't be afraid, young man. I don't believe this grandson would dare to do it."
"Get out of my way!" The man in the black leather jacket was greatly stimulated. He roared and pushed open a certain space in the already crowded area. Many people screamed under the strong pressure, and the man had already squeezed over and almost hit the old lady. Lu Yanhe quickly raised his arm and blocked the man.
"You actually hit an old man?" Lu Yanhe's face was filled with anger. He hadn't been this angry even when he was mocked and ridiculed earlier. He glared at the man in the black leather jacket, "Just try to move. I was holding back because I was giving you face and not wanting to cause any trouble. There are so many people here. Do you think they'll just watch you hit an old man?!"
"That's right!" An older brother immediately spoke up, looking at the man in the black leather jacket, "Brother, even if you have a bad temper, don't get angry at others. They haven't provoked you."
"Yeah." A young woman in a white shirt also spoke up. "It's so early in the morning, and the subway is already so crowded. Cool down."
…
The people around were drawn in and started talking at once.
At this time, the next stop arrived.
The man in the black jacket had a pale face and hadn't reacted yet when suddenly a crowd of people pushed him out from inside.
"Move aside! We want to get off!" Many people squeezed together to push the man off the car.
He was so angry that he yelled, "How dare you walk with your eyes closed? Didn't you see someone?"
The people around him immediately took two steps away from him, and for a moment no one wanted to approach him.
When he turned around, he saw that almost everyone in the car was looking at him with contempt, and their expressions were unfriendly. Some people were even holding up their mobile phones to take pictures of him.
He raised his hand and pointed at them: "What are you filming?"
The person being pointed at then put down his phone.
He wanted to go up again, but at this time, several men standing at the door blocked the door and refused to move back to make room for him.
“Ding ding ding—”
The door closing signal sounded.
"Get out of my way!" he shouted angrily.
But at this moment, someone stretched out a leg from the crowd and kicked him directly in the stomach, knocking him to the ground.
At this moment, the door slammed shut with a clang.
-
What happened on the subway was a completely unexpected incident.
Lu Yanhe didn't react at all, nor did he expect everyone to react like this.
The old lady patted Lu Yanhe on the shoulder and said, "Thank you so much for what you did just now, young man!"
She smiled at Lu Yanhe with a kind look.
Lu Yanhe felt very embarrassed and said, "I, I also have to thank you for speaking up for me."
"What's the big deal? There are fewer people like that now, but there used to be quite a few. They wouldn't do their jobs, just wander around the streets and cause trouble. I can't stand them the most," the old lady said. "I couldn't stand them when I was young, and I never tolerated them, let alone now."
She looked so proud and righteous that Lu Yanhe felt relieved.
After getting off the subway, Lu Yanhe followed the crowd out of the subway station and found that he and the old lady got off the same subway.
"Oh, are you getting off at this stop too?" The old lady smiled at Lu Yanhe.
Lu Yanhe nodded: "Yes, what about you?"
The main reason is that the old lady looks like she has retired a long time ago.
The old lady said with a smile: "I came here to give my son's ID card. He left it at home and asked me to deliver it."
Lu Yanhe nodded.
"What does your son do?"
"How would I know? I just know he's been traveling a lot," the old lady said. "I don't know either. I just came from my hometown two days ago to see how he's doing."
While listening, Lu Yanhe accompanied the old lady to find the exit, and it turned out that they had the same exit.
This fate.
Lu Yanhe accompanied the old lady into the elevator.
When he arrived at the exit, Lu Yanhe saw a familiar figure striding towards him and calling the old lady next to him "Mom".
This person is Zhou Ping'an.
Lu Yanhe: “…”
This damn fate.
Zhou Ping'an also looked at Lu Yanhe with an incredible look, probably because he couldn't understand why he appeared with his mother.
The old lady looked at the two of them and asked, "Do you two know each other?"
Lu Yanhe looked at Zhou Pingan.
Let him answer this question.
Zhou Pingan coughed awkwardly and said, "We work in the same company."
The old lady laughed joyfully. "Ah, what a coincidence! This young man was really amazing just now. Someone was about to attack your mother, but he stepped forward without a word and helped me block the attack."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Ping'an looked at her nervously.
"Mom, are you okay? Are you hurt?"
"It's okay, what's the harm? I told you this guy helped me block it." The old lady said immediately, "It's okay, he's a kind-hearted guy, you should take care of him at work."
Zhou Ping'an lowered his head and responded. At this moment, he was even a little embarrassed to look at Lu Yanhe's face.
Lu Yanhe was too lazy to continue arguing with Zhou Pingan.
He smiled at the old lady and said, "I'm going back to the company first. You two can chat slowly."
"Okay." The old lady responded in a crisp voice.
Lu Yanhe went to the company and arrived half an hour early.
He and Zhang Ming had agreed to meet at nine in the morning, but it was only half past eight.
Not long after entering the rehearsal room, Zhou Ping'an appeared again.
He knocked on the door, came in, and looked at Lu Yanhe with a complicated expression.
"What happened just now?" he asked.
Lu Yanhe briefly explained it.
Zhou Ping'an hesitated for a moment, and seemed to want to say something but stopped himself several times.
"What do you want to say? Forget the thanks." Lu Yanhe said directly, "I didn't know it was your mother at the time."
Zhou Pingan frowned, "If you knew she was my mother, would you not help?"
"I would think she had ulterior motives when she praised my beauty," Lu Yanhe said bluntly. "Let's not talk about those whitewashing words between us. To be honest, regarding the things between us, I would be thankful if we could live in peace and not interfere with each other in the future."
Zhou Ping'an immediately sneered.
"Do you think I have a lot of free time? Anyway, my work has been completed. It's not my fault if Chen Ziyan wants to sign you back."
Zhou Pingan finished speaking and added: "I won't deliberately make things difficult for you in the future, so you don't have to worry about it."
