    Chapter 8

    “Replace you, Ah Chen?” The director thought for a while and patted his head. “It was already decided at that time. You will play Chuzhou. Fang Xingcheng told me to keep it a secret and he wanted to tell you personally. Didn’t I give you the room key?”

    Fang Xingcheng: “He came at the wrong time. I was taking a shower and didn’t hear him, and I don’t have his contact information.”

    “No wonder you called me later and asked me to talk to my agent. I told you that you are unreliable. I shouldn’t believe you.”

    “You’ve been so arrogant after just a few days of filming. Have you forgotten who invited you?”

    “…” The director moved his mouth and manually silenced himself.

    Judging from the shape of his mouth, he was swearing quite dirty.

    Bai Song raised the corners of his mouth happily and kept smiling while humming.

    Fang Xingcheng: “Why are you laughing? Is it that funny?”

    “Yes.” Bai Song couldn’t help laughing, and deliberately imitated Fang Xingcheng’s previous words: “Don’t misunderstand me, the director only chose you to join the group because of your ability, and it has nothing to do with me.”

    Bai Song stared at Fang Xingcheng with bright eyes: “Didn’t I say it has nothing to do with you, Teacher Fang?”

    Teacher Fang pushed up his non-existent glasses, his eyes wandering: “When the director came to ask me, I just said that I can give you a chance to try. The final decision to choose you was his. He talked nonsense about what he recommended or not.”

    “Oh~ nonsense.”

    “Yes.”

    Bai Song suddenly stopped and stopped in front of Fang Xingcheng. They unknowingly went off the road and ran to the edge of the set. In a deserted place, only the crew’s prop trucks were piled up.

    Fang Xingcheng glanced in the direction: “We’re going in the wrong direction.”

    He was about to leave, but was stopped by Bai Song.

    “Yes, I did it on purpose. In fact, I took several wrong turns just now, but you didn’t notice it. Teacher Fang, do you trust me too much, or do you feel guilty because you lied to me?”

    “What do I feel guilty about? You should feel guilty, right?” Fang Xingcheng said expressionlessly, “Two hours a day.”

    “Ahem, please forget about this. It was because your brain was short-circuited at that time.”

    “Is your brain short-circuited to lie to me for poor reasons, or do you still remember your ex-boyfriend’s phone number after six years of separation?” Fang Xingcheng responded, “I don’t remember that I gave you my phone number the last time you came to the hotel?”

    Bai Song: “…I didn’t expect that you haven’t changed your number in six years.”

    “Yes, you can’t compare to some people who are so callous and ruthless that they change all their contact information. Fortunately, I didn’t make a few calls to find you.”

    ——Fang Xingcheng, who made hundreds of phone calls every day after being broken up, said this expressionlessly.

    Bai Song suppressed the words that were about to come out of his throat. There was a flash of hesitation on his face. After a while, he made up his mind, lowered his head to Fang Xingcheng, and apologized very solemnly: “I’m sorry. It was indeed my fault back then.”

    “But, I hope you don’t hate me, Teacher Fang…can we still be friends?”

    “Friends?”

    Fang Xingcheng was stunned for a moment, and suddenly… wanted to laugh.It was extremely painful to withdraw from a relationship. He could hardly sleep at night in the first three months. He remembered that the phone number he knew so well was called repeatedly, but all he received was the mechanical notification sound of the woman in the system.

    Later, Fang Xingcheng learned to numb himself with work. He accepted many, many announcements and filled up all his time. Fang Xingcheng originally thought that he would not have to miss it, but he was wrong. In a moment and a trivial corner, missing him was still enough to be unforgettable.

    It took him a long time to forcefully “let go”, and it wasn’t entirely right to say let go. Fang Xingcheng just learned to pretend and to deceive himself. He stopped showing it, so his heart was deceived by his acting skills, as if he was really completely relieved for Bai Song.

    I won’t think of him again for a long time.

    But Bai Song appeared again, in the crew where Fang Xingcheng would play the male lead next.

    The director brought a bunch of audition materials to Fang Xingcheng to discuss the candidate for the second male lead. The director really couldn’t find an actor suitable to play the second male lead, so he settled for the next best thing and planned to pick one from the actors who auditioned for the supporting role. Fang Xingcheng saw Bai Song almost at first sight.

    Fang Xingcheng watched the audition footage of all the “candidates”, trying to find an excuse to ditch Bai Song, but he listened to the director’s appreciation of Bai Song and ultimately said nothing.

    White pine is really good.

    Bai Song lost weight.

    Miss him so much.

    By the time Fang Xingcheng reacted, the directors had already competed to the last two, and Bai Song was still among them.The director said: Fang Xingcheng, don’t just watch. After all, this is the actor playing your best friend and enemy, and you are also giving advice.

    Fang Xingcheng heard his own voice: “Just the white pine.”

    “Bai Song? Do you know him?”

    “Well, we were… friends many years ago.” Fang Xingcheng said, “But we haven’t seen each other for a while. Director, please help me lie to him. Don’t tell Bai Song that you want to cast him as the second male lead. Just tell him that the role has been changed. The rest I think… I will give him a surprise.”

    Fang Xingcheng handed the spare room card to the director.

    Then, when Bai Song really came, he thought it was an unspoken rule… Fang Xingcheng immediately planned to stage a trick. Bai Song abandoned him first and asked him to bully him.But the subsequent development was beyond his judgment. Fang Xingcheng didn’t know how to tell Bai Song: In fact, the crew of “Stars” did not replace you.

    Bai Song will know it in two days anyway. Maybe he doesn’t want to know this good news from his ex-boyfriend, right?

    Fang Xingcheng did not learn how to deal with the relationship with his ex-boyfriend, especially in the face of his first love, which he never forgot.He tried to be nice to him, and also tried to be sarcastic to him, but Bai Song was like cotton, no matter how hard he was slapped, he would bounce back softly.Fang Xingcheng knew that he was blocked from the safe zone by Bai Song, who was guarding against him.

    So Fang Xingcheng bluffed him, teased him, and lied to him, with the purpose of detecting the fluctuating expression on Bai Song’s face because of him. Fang Xingcheng did succeed. His ex-boyfriend was not untouched, and he probably didn’t even let him go.Is this a good thing?Fang Xingcheng didn’t know that he had not found the right way to get along with his ex-boyfriend.

    But today Bai Song asked if they could still be friends.

    Fang Xingcheng realized belatedly that he was angry.

    ——So what are the six years since they broke up and the countless sleepless nights he spent?

    “Friends?” Fang Xingcheng asked.

    Bai Song: “Ah, well. After all, we have to cooperate in the future, and netizens have already revealed our previous relationship. Didn’t you also say that we should maintain a good personality? ‘Friends’ is the most suitable for our current relationship, right?”

    Fang Xingcheng said expressionlessly: “Yes, friend.”

    Based on Bai Song’s understanding of Fang Xingcheng, hearing this sentence and gritting his teeth was equivalent to “go and die”. There was nothing he could do about it. Bai Song strategically touched his nose.

    Eyes wandering.

    Change the subject.

    “Ahem, Teacher Fang, you said before that I don’t need to intervene in matters on the Internet, but it’s been a day and I see you haven’t issued a statement yet. Do you need my cooperation?”

    Today, the topic on the Internet still revolves around the relationship between the two of them. Netizens are so free that they even look up old variety shows and watch them. The number of views of the old works has increased a lot.

    Fang Xingcheng gave Bai Song a strange look: “Like you, I get up early in the morning and go to work to film, and I just got off work.”

    Also, Fang Xingcheng even has two more scenes than him, so he has no time to deal with online matters.

    No, does this kind of trivial matter require him to take action personally?Just arrange for your agent or assistant to send it.

    Bai Song dared to think but not speak.

    Fang Xingcheng took out his phone indifferently and clicked a few times.

    Ding dong!”Fang Xingcheng” whom you are particularly interested in posted on Weibo.

    Bai Song: “Is this the plan you explained?”

    This is not equivalent to recognizing the identity of his “old friend”. To give a hint, there is a difference between explaining and not explaining. Didn’t the netizens “guess correctly”?

    Fang Xingcheng said of course: “Ah, you have a more legitimate reason. Qin Yue has just made her debut, and I don’t want netizens to discuss whether she is in a relationship.”

    Oh, yes.The biggest connection in this drama is actually Qin Yue, not him.

    I almost forgot about this.

    Bai Song always felt that something was wrong, but he also felt that what Fang Xingcheng said was reasonable.So could it be that he was doing all this on his own, and that Fang Xingcheng was actually just because of Qin Yue?

    Bai Song didn’t believe it.

    He chose to move his hands and retweeted Weibo: Bai Song V: @方星成 Long time no see.// Fang Xingcheng V: @白松Long time no see.// TV series Star V:…

    Bai Song stared at Fang Xingcheng: “Teacher Fang, thank you.”

    “Thank you, I didn’t do anything.”

    Whether it’s career or relationship, Bai Song is grateful to Fang Xingcheng.

    “My second male lead, and today’s Weibo post.”

    “I said, it’s because of your own efforts, so it has nothing to do with me, so you don’t need to thank me.”

    “Every artist in the entertainment industry works hard, not just me, so I thank you for giving me this opportunity.”

    Bai Song knew that with Fang Xingcheng’s ability, if he really wanted to block him, he only needed to say one sentence.Who would offend an eighteenth-tier artist for Shidi?Fang Xingcheng could block him at no cost at all.

    But Fang Xingcheng will not use his power to suppress others, even if the person has hurt him.

    It didn’t happen ten years ago, and it won’t happen ten years from now.

    Bai Song breathed out gently: “To be honest, yesterday when I discovered that our relationship was being fermented on the Internet, I was actually very nervous.”

    Fang Xingcheng interrupted: “Are you so worried that you clicked four likes in a row?”

    Bang, the sensational atmosphere suddenly stopped.

    “…” Oops, I forgot about this. Why is Fang Xingcheng paying so much attention to it.Bai Song explained: “No, that, that’s not me.”

    Didn’t you still talk about slippery hands yesterday?Fang Xingcheng did not expose Bai Song, but made a gesture to indicate for him to continue.

    “I’ve been thinking about how to face you and how to deal with our relationship during this time. After all, I don’t want you to hate me, nor do I want you to hate me.”

    “I always thought Teacher Fang hated me, but today I know that’s not the case. You don’t hate me that much, so I’m relieved. After all, we have to face the audience and fans sooner or later. The Internet has no memory of the past. I don’t want to cause trouble to you.”

    “But after today, I know how to get along with you, Teacher Fang. I will act as your good friend and shield Qin Yue. I will not have any undue thoughts towards you.”

    Bai Song has a bright smile. As an actor, acting is like life.

    “…” Fang Xingcheng was silent for a moment, and before leaving, he said, “It’s best this way.”

    Bai Song closed his eyes, and the words he heard six years ago rang in his mind: “——He is still young, don’t destroy him, leave him, okay?”

    Sorry.Bai Song shouted silently.Sorry, I still miss him so much, he is so dazzling.
