Chapter 461: A Gimmicky Movie
Women"s sixth sense is really magical. Although Liusu and Dong Xiaoye did not have any basis, they instinctively felt that the person Ziyuan wanted to deceive was me.
Both of them had complicated expressions on their faces, but it could be roughly seen that Liusu was mostly dissatisfied, whereas Dong Xiaoye was mainly suspicious.
Siter Tiger has always been quite prejudiced against Ziyuan, and because of Ziyuan"s secretiveness, there was always a gap between Liusu and Ziyuan.
I suppressed the chaotic thoughts in my heart and smiled: "Maybe she is afraid that our colleagues will be too enthusiastic and come visit her in the hotel. Haha, aren"t Xiao Sun and Old Black just living examples? She is living in a hotel. It"s an excuse that can be easily used by others. Ziyuan has been introverted since she was a child. She doesn"t like socializing and doesn"t know how to socialize with others..."
I couldn"t tell what I wanted to conceal. I was perturbed in mind and the excuse I gave didn"t have any logic.
Liusu pouted her mouth and said, "But she doesn"t have to lie to you, right?"
Dong Xiaoye was relatively calmer and more rational, "She is renting a room in the hotel just to avoid socializing and doesn"t want to be disturbed? How much does Xue Ziyuan earn in a month? Since she doesn"t live here, where does she live? Is she really afraid of being disturbed by others, or is she just afraid of being disturbed by you?"
I didn"t know the answer, so I felt annoyed by Dong Xiaoye"s question, "That"s enough. Even if you don"t talk, no one will treat you as a dumb!"
Dong Xiaoye was stunned by my reaction. Seeing her biting her lower lip, her eyes full of grievances, I knew that what I said was too much.
Feeling guilty and regretfully, I sighed and eased my tone: "It"s probably because of the Third Lady that she did this. Don"t worry, I"ll find out from her."
The two girls understood that I was not in a good mood at the moment, so they simply nodded. Although Dong Xiaoye was still a little upset that I had said such harsh words to her, in the end, she didn"t say anything..
I then told the hotel receptionist that if Ziyuan asked her if anyone had come to look for her, she just needed to tell her no. The gossipy receptionist only a.s.sumed that there was a conflict between us and we were having a cold war. Although she agreed with a smile, I had to bring her a box of chocolates next time.
To find out more information, I added an extra box of chocolates and asked her everything she knew about Ziyuan. However, because Ziyuan only lived in the hotel for one night, she didn"t know anything. In the end, she even wanted to find out my relationship with her and if I did anything that night when I stayed overnight.
Fearing that Liusu would hear our whispers, I hurriedly ran away. There was no way I would be able to tell her what I did that night in front of Liusu and Dong Xiaoye. Those two women would eat me alive if they found out what happened that night.
This incident once again affected the atmosphere of my unusual dating with Liusu and Dong Xiaoye. It didn"t get better until we entered the cinema.
Because it was a movie premiere, and there was an event where actors would interact with the audience, there were already crowds of people inside and outside the gates of the cinema an hour before the movie started. There were also a lot of enthusiastic fans holding up posters. Finally, I was not so eye-catching anymore, because I was no longer the only one who was holding flowers.
Speaking of this movie called "Fickle Love", the story in the movie was actually far less interesting than the story of the actors outside the movie. This movie was not a big budget movie, and it didn"t have many famous stars. It had only one big name, Wu Lefeng, a star who was in deep lawsuits and scandals.
Wu Lefeng was actually not very young, he was already 33 years old, but he still had many female fans. At least 90% of the female fans gathered here were his fans, including Liusu and Dong Xiaoye. On the way to the cinema, the two women had been talking about Wu Lefeng and snickering like idiots from time to time, making me really speechless.
But he was sought after by many female fans not only because he was handsome, but also because of the sense of responsibility he had.
When Wu Lefeng debuted at the age of 22, he told the public that he had already been married. His wife was someone outside the entertainment industry, and she was his childhood sweetheart. What surprised everyone was that in the last ten years, he, who was working in the entertainment industry, an industry that was filled with endless l.u.s.t and temptations, actually didn"t have any scandals.
His self-discipline and loyalty to his wife was once praised by many people. He was even called the role model of the perfect man.
But not long ago, he had his first credibility crisis since entering the entertainment industry. According to media reports, Wu Lefeng actually committed bigamy! It was said that he was married to two women at the same time back then. One was his childhood sweetheart, and the other was his cla.s.smate in the acting college, who happened to be the second female lead of this "Fickle Love", Mu Rui.
And the person who exposed this scandal was the main female lead of the movie, a new actress who belonged to the same company as Mu Rui. This female actress" name was Tong Feifei, and she had just turned 20 on the day that her first movie premiered. G.o.d knows if it was true or not.
Of course, Tong Feifei denied that it wasn"t her, and threatened to sue the media who slandered her. She claimed that she had been a big fan of Wu Lefeng since she was a child, admiring him and treating him as an elder brother and a teacher. How would she maliciously slander him?
However, not long after this was said, a paparazzi caught two people arguing in a restaurant. Tong Feifei even slapped Wu Lefeng. But the video was secretly filmed with a mobile phone, and the distance was too far away, so the image was very blurry. Therefore, the two of them did not admit that it was them. This also became the focus of the current online debate between Wu Lefeng"s supporters and haters.
In addition, the topic regarding why Wu Lefeng took the role in this movie was also popular among movie fans. The director of this movie was Hu Yan who was called an "otherworldly genius" by many people.
This guy had this t.i.tle because most of the movies he had made so far were incomprehensible to many people, which often made people question what the movies were about. However, strangely, there were also some so-called experts and die-hard fans supporting him, saying that his movies were postmodern, his perspective was unique, and his thoughts were extraordinary. They said that he was not making movies, but telling stories with his soul...
Even though I didn"t pay much attention to the entertainment news, I still knew that Wu Lefeng and Hu Yan had a fight back then. Hu Yan once criticized Wu Lefeng fiercely, saying that he was an actor with a good face but zero acting skills. He said that he would never work with him, because his performance had no soul. Wu Lefeng also responded sharply, saying that he would never act in Hu Yan"s movie in his life…
However, now the recognized enemies in the entertainment industry had joined forces. Hu Yan told reporters that it was Wu Lefeng who took the initiative to ask him for this role. After he carefully considered it, he also felt that Wu Lefeng was indeed suitable for this movie after years of learning. So he decided to forget the past disagreements and work with him.
Regarding this, Wu Lefeng didn"t have any response. So people couldn"t help but have many different thoughts about this. After all, Tong Feifei once told a reporter that Wu Lefeng bowed his head to Hu Yan entirely because of Mu Rui.
This Mu Rui debuted in the same year as Wu Lefeng, but so far she didn"t have any famous work. There were rumors saying that this "Fickle Love" was the last chance given to her by her management company. If the sale of the movie was not good, then she would have to face the fate of leaving the entertainment circle. Therefore, Wu Lefeng tried to use his popularity and box office appeal to help his "second wife"...
The truth of the matter was very blurry, but it had attracted enough attention for the movie. The slogans such as "Forever LOVE You Lefeng" "We Believe in You" "Love You for Ten Thousand Years" almost overwhelmed the three of us. I guessed that Hu Yan must be very happy, because none of his past movies were as popular as this one.
"Where did you get the movie ticket?"
"Qin Lan gave it to me," Dong Xiaoye smiled provocatively at me and said, "You didn"t expect it, did you? Are you surprised? Look at the seat numbers, we are also next to each other. Are you happy?"
Qin Lan, that d.a.m.n woman. It was no wonder that Liusu dared to ask me to go out for a date at this period of time. She was clearly instigated by Qin Lan!
Actually, I knew that Qin Lan just wanted to create opportunities for me and Liusu. But why did she want to give the third ticket to Dong Xiaoye?
Dong Xiaoye"s seat number was 8, mine was 9, and Liusu was 10. Sitting in between two women, it was supposed to be a happy thing, but I really wanted to cry.
"Happy? I want to cry..."
"Cry," Dong Xiaoye c.o.c.ked her chin and sang, "cry me a river~"
"It"s out of tune... But seriously, is being a third wheel something to be proud of?" I felt very frustrated, "Why are you so happy?"
Before I finished speaking, Dong Xiaoye"s face already darkened. She suddenly kicked my b.u.t.t fiercely, and then stared at me bitterly without speaking.
This woman was really abnormal today. Her mood changed even more frequently than Bei Tian city"s weather.
