    Chapter 3

    “Who?” Fang Xingcheng asked.

    Bai Song was stunned for a moment. In desperation, he got wise and shouted at the top of his voice: “High-paying part-time job to brush orders. It only takes two hours a day and the monthly income is over 10,000!”

    “…”

    Bai Song silently recited: Quick hang, quick hang, quick hang.

    Fang Xingcheng was silent for a moment: “…how to do it?”

    No, Sir, are you short of money? Brother, is your awareness of precautions a bit too poor?

    Bai Song: “Uh… first, pay two thousand yuan as a start-up capital.”

    “Where to call? WeChat or Alipay? Or…card number.”

    “…” The silent man turned into a white pine.

    He hesitated to speak, and finally said, “Brother, this is a scam.”

    Fang Xingcheng’s voice sounded like he was in a good mood: “Oh, I know, it’s your first time, right? It’s illegal to do this, so please turn around. I have a lot of money, so I’ll transfer it to you. Don’t give it to your superior. Take the money and run away and find a more serious job.”

    “…………”

    The phone hung up. Bai Song hung up.

    …My feelings towards a liar are much better than towards him. It seems that Fang Xingcheng really hates him.

    After a while, his phone rang again.

    Bai Song took a closer look: Fang Xingcheng called him back.

    Are famous celebrities so free?

    Swipe left to hang up.

    Five minutes later, the phone rang again.

    Bai Song hung up again.

    After a while, the call came again, again and again. Bai Song couldn’t bear it anymore. He answered the call without even looking at it and yelled: “I’m not a liar! I’m just teasing you.”

    The person on the other end of the phone was obviously stunned for a moment: “What kind of liar?”

    It wasn’t Fang Xingcheng’s voice.

    Bai Song then looked at the caller ID on the screen.

    Thank you.

    His agent.

    Bai Song held his forehead: “No… uh, I just made a phone call to joke with my friend, uh, it’s okay, it’s not important, what’s wrong, Brother Xie.”

    You can hear the strangeness in Xie Xi’s tone along the phone line: “You are quite… innocent.”

    I mean it’s childish.

    Xie Xi said: “A good news or a bad news, which one do you want to hear first?”

    Bai Song thought to himself: You are quite naive.

    But he still cooperated.

    “Bad news.”

    Could there be any worse news for him now?

    Xie Xi cleared his throat: “The bad news is that your vacation is gone. You will join the team after three days of cleaning up.”

    “Huh?”

    “The good news is that the crew of “Running for the Stars” has re-signed a contract with us.”

    “He…asked me to play Ah Chen again?”

    A-Chen is the supporting male character that Bai Song auditioned and signed before. In the plot, he is the male protagonist’s personal bodyguard and think tank. His role is not much, but it is a little eye-catching, and it is also the best resource Bai Song has access to.

    Bai Song went many times for this role and auditioned three times.

    There was no other way. A young artist like him with no capital and no works could only show himself to the film producers. Fortunately, in the end, both the director and the producer had a good impression of him.

    The contract is obviously signed.

    If it weren’t for Fang Xingcheng’s intervention.

    But Xie Xi said: “No, A Chen has been replaced by someone else, and you play the second male lead Chu Zhou.”

    “What?”

    “Chu Zhou, the second male lead. So your vacation is over from now on. I have sent you the script. Read the script carefully in these three days. When you join the set, you can communicate more with the director, screenwriter and other actors. I have other things to do and I will accompany you to the set after two days. Goodbye.”

    Xie Xi hung up at the speed of light.

    The crew of “Running for the Stars” has never found a suitable actor to play the second male lead. Bai Song knew about this early on, but with his status as a celebrity, he was determined not to be able to play the second male lead, and he had never thought about this role.

    However, he used to think that the director had high requirements for this role, so he never found a suitable actor.

    It was only in the past two days that Bai Song found out that the male protagonist was Fang Xingcheng, which made it even more understandable.

    Come on, playing with Fang Xingcheng is not something that just any actor can handle.

    The point is that this crew doesn’t seem to have that much money. All the money should have been used to hire Fang Xingcheng alone. Other places have been digging around, and it seems that they can’t afford a second big name.

    White Pine is a blessing in disguise.

    He knew that Fang Xingcheng must have been the driving force behind him to get the role of Chu Zhou.

    This man is really a sharp-tongued person.

    Bai Song thought: I must not be embarrassed in front of him.

    The printed script was spread out on the table. When the lamp was turned on, Bai Song stayed up three nights to finish it.

    The night before joining the group, Bai Song thought to himself: No matter what, he should thank Fang Xingcheng, right?

    The next day.

    Fang Xingcheng is a workaholic, which is the unanimous evaluation of him in the industry.

    He was one of the first actors to report to the set, but Bai Song arrived long before him. He had already greeted the director, screenwriter, and producer and distributed the gifts he had brought.

    Fang Xingcheng’s assistant Chen Cheng said that as far as he knew, Bai Song had not reserved a gift for Fang Xingcheng.

    “How do you know how to please the director, the screenwriter, and the producer, but you don’t know how to please the leading actor?” Fang Xingcheng muttered.

    A question mark floated over Chen Cheng’s head. He had followed Fang Xingcheng for nearly five years and claimed that he knew 80% of Fang Xingcheng. Usually, he could tell whether Fang Xingcheng wanted to drink coffee or tea just by his expressions and movements.

    At this moment, Chen Cheng found that he was somewhat elusive about his big boss.

    Why did Fang Xingcheng say such words with such an expression?Is it because——

    The owner of the topic was walking towards them.

    Bai Songyan smiled and greeted Fang Xingcheng with his decent smile: “Teacher Fang, what a coincidence.”

    Extremely obedient, without any sharp edges.

    Fang Xingcheng twitched his lips: “Unfortunately, I am the protagonist.”

    The implication of this sentence is that Fang Xingcheng will appear on this crew no matter what, so it is not a chance encounter.

    Bai Song blinked.

    He thought for a long time yesterday that he should cherish the opportunity when it comes to him, and he can overcome other difficulties. The biggest difficulty for Bai Song in filming this drama should be Fang Xingcheng.

    How to deal with the relationship with Fang Xingcheng.

    It would be great if there were someone in the world who could provide a guide to communication between people.

    But there is no such thing.

    Bai Song finally decided to let nature take its course and go with the flow.

    Fang Xingcheng is not a scourge.

    As an adult, you should be able to handle your relationship with your ex.

    He could only think so.

    It’s definitely not an answer without an answer, and it’s definitely not that he wants to avoid how to deal with his relationship with Fang Xingcheng.

    But this meeting was indeed deliberately planned by Bai Song. He had to adjust his attitude and become colleagues in the next few months.What’s more, as the second male lead, the rivalry between Bai Song and Fang Xingcheng is inevitable.

    At least we have to maintain harmony on the surface.

    If they can’t continue filming because of a conflict between the two of them, then it will definitely be Bai Song who will be replaced.

    Bai Song blinked and handed over the gift box in his hand: “Teacher Fang, these are the cookies I baked myself. It is considered as my apology. You don’t remember the faults of villains… What happened in the past is in the past. I will have to learn more from you and give you more guidance in future shootings.”

    There are many people who please Fang Xingcheng. As Fang Xingcheng’s personal assistant, Chen Cheng has seen between 100 and 50 people who want to have a relationship with Fang Xingcheng. However, they all give expensive luxuries. This is the first time someone gives him biscuits made by himself. Teacher Fang will definitely not accept it. He doesn’t even want luxuries, so how can he want such a thing.

    ——Oh my god, why did Teacher Fang really accept it?Chen Cheng’s eyes widened.

    Fang Xingcheng opened a corner of the gift box and found several rows of bear biscuits inside. It looked like the maker’s craftsmanship was good.

    Fang Xingcheng pushed the box back again: “Feed me.”

    “What?”

    Bai Song suspected that he had heard wrongly. What was Fang Xingcheng going crazy about in public?

    “I said, hello, me.” Fang Xingcheng leaned close to Bai Song’s ear and spoke word by word, then calmly looked directly into Bai Song’s eyes: “Did you hear it clearly this time?”

    A threat, this is definitely a threat.

    Bai Song gritted his teeth and took out a small bear biscuit. He was used to coaxing children: “Come on, open your mouth, ah——”

    Fang Xingcheng smiled half-heartedly.

    By the time Bai Song realized that it was Fang Xingcheng standing in front of him and not Bai Bai, it was already too late.

    “No, I’m not…”

    Fang Xingcheng lowered his head and ate the biscuit without waiting for Bai Song to finish speaking.

    “It’s much more delicious than the one I had eight years ago.” Fang Xingcheng said.

    Chen Cheng: What eight years ago?

    Bai Song: “People will always make progress.”

    “Yeah.” Fang Xingcheng responded lightly, and then said, “Add me as a friend.”

    “Huh?”

    “Didn’t you say you want to learn more from me?” Fang Xingcheng asked, “How can I learn if I don’t even have contact information?”

    “Ah yes yes…”

    Bai Song hurriedly tried to get his cell phone, but he searched his pockets and couldn’t find it.Bai Song patted his head. He had just rushed to get something to find Fang Xingcheng, and had left his mobile phone in the lounge.

    “How about we add more next time?” Bai Song said cautiously.

    Fang Xingcheng: “Give me your account number.”

    Bai Song gritted his teeth and spit out a series of numbers. His WeChat account was his mobile phone number.

    “I know.” Fang Xingcheng stared at the phone for a while, and after a while, his thoughtful eyes fell on Bai Song.

    An alarm bell rang in Bai Song’s heart.

    He heard Fang Xingcheng say: “——Fraud, deception, phone call?”

    Looking along the line of sight, the caller ID of Bai Song’s mobile phone number on Fang Xingcheng’s mobile phone showed the four characters “fraud call”.

    No brother, why do you even have to keep a scam number?

    Bai Song:.

    Bai Song: “Listen to my explanation.”

    Fang Xingcheng did not listen to Bai Song’s explanation in the end, because the director had something to ask him for, and instead came to Bai Song’s rescue.

    Bai Song returned to the lounge and was still thinking about the incident.

    Did Fang Xingcheng do it on purpose or accidentally?

    His eyes were clear, and it looked like he had discovered it by accident, but Bai Song had a vague premonition. Did Fang Xingcheng do it on purpose?But what are the benefits of Fang Xingcheng deliberately doing these things?

    Is his acting really so natural?

    “Who?” Xie Xi, who had just returned from running around, only heard the second half of Bai Song’s muttered words.

    This is how the small workshop brokerage company uses one agent as three people. Xie Xi is not only Bai Song’s agent, but also his publicity assistant and life assistant.

    Bai Song often suspected that Xie Xi had other part-time jobs. After all, there were times when he couldn’t even find Xie Xi.

    Xie Xi: “Fang Xingcheng? His acting skills have always been recognized by the public as good. If you learn more from others, you might be able to become a TV star in the future!”

    Bai Song said sincerely: “Isn’t it too early to make these plans now, Brother Xie?”

    Fang Xingcheng has been acting for as long as he has just been acting.

    As long as he completes his work well and makes no mistakes, Bai Song has always positioned himself very accurately.

    Xie Xi felt frustrated and said: “People must have dreams!”

    “That has to be a dream, not a delusion.”

    “——Dangdang, this is my lounge!” The girl’s voice broke in, interrupting the conversation between Xie Xi and Bai Song. Her mobile phone was placed on the selfie stick, and she didn’t know whether she was recording a video or live broadcast.

    Xie Xi and Bai Song looked at each other and decisively stopped talking.

    The girl didn’t seem to expect that anyone was in the lounge, so she was startled and decisively turned off the recording button on her phone.

    It looks like he’s recording a video.

    “Oh, I’m sorry, I didn’t know there was someone inside, I’m sorry.” The girl apologized repeatedly.

    Bai Song waved his hand: “It doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter.”

    As the second male lead, he didn’t have to line up with other supporting actors to squeeze into the dressing room, but Bai Song didn’t have the privilege of having an independent dressing room. Only Fang Xingcheng in the entire crew had such treatment.

    So Bai Song shares a dressing room with the heroine, so this one must be the heroine.

    Xie Xi asked: “Are you Teacher Qin Yueqin?”

    Qin Yue showed an embarrassed expression: “Yes, I am Qin Yue. You don’t need to call me teacher. This is my debut work, so I need to learn more from all the teachers.”

    She looked young, as if she had just graduated from college.

    “Then I’ll call you Qin Yue. Hello, I am…”

    Bai Song was about to introduce himself, but was interrupted by Qin Yue excitedly: “I know, I know, you are Bai Song!”

    “Are you really back? Did Fang Xingcheng bring you here?”
