Chapter 48:
Li Mingxuan kissed Shen Xi pitifully, carefully tucked the quilt for him, and closed the door lightly to the living room.
Since last night, Li Mingxuan's whole mind has been on Shen Xi, from worrying that the effect of the drug will cause discomfort to Shen Xi's body to worrying that Shen Xi will repel him when she wakes up, until now Shen Xi After falling asleep peacefully, Li Mingxuan was completely relieved, and only then did he have the heart to pursue what happened last night.
Finger swiping in the address book, Li Mingxuan called Zhao Wenping directly.
Zhao Wenping was not surprised when he received Li Mingxuan's call. He not only recounted what happened last night in detail, but also mentioned some things he found today. When he came, Zhao Wenping apologized to Li Mingxuan, and he mishandled this matter. Because there are people from the film bureau, he originally wanted to protect Fang Luowei through Shen Xi, how could he have thought that the other party would be so bold and direct medicine, and Shen Xi drank that glass of wine by accident.
According to Zhao Wenping, last night Chen Zhiwei also thought of taking some of the main creators of the crew out for dinner on a whim last night, Fang Luowei was only able to go with him because of his relationship with Shen Xi, no one was there. It was expected that they would meet someone from Shen Rong's crew who were entertaining the film bureau at the hotel. Because the director of the play Zhou Xiaozhou and Chen Zhiwei are also acquaintances, Chen Zhiwei could not shirk under the warm invitation of the other party, so the two sides sat together like this. At the beginning, everyone's atmosphere was not bad, but as everyone drank too much, Hao Zhenmin couldn't help but started to move on Luo Wei. Chen Zhiwei couldn't tear his face due to the identity of the other party, so he could only try his best to block the wine for Fang Luowei until Shen Xi came over.
Li Mingxuan didn't care about what happened, and after listening to Zhao Wenping's story, he just picked out the key points he thought, "You just said last night that they invited the people from the film bureau to get the movie A license to release?"
Anyone who is familiar with movies knows that the two most critical steps in a movie are one is to attract investment, and the other is to obtain a movie release license. Without a license, your film cannot be released, it cannot be marketed, and it is always a shadowy film. Naturally, all the investment in this film will not be recovered, it can only be wasted.
Zhao Wenping didn't expect Li Mingxuan to be so keen, so he picked out the key points and nodded, "Yes, Zhou Xiaozhou's film has just been submitted for review. You know, usually at this time, the producer has to cooperate with The Film Bureau has contacted the relationship to facilitate the film to pass the censorship smoothly." Speaking of which, Zhao Wenping added, "Hao Zhenmin is the deputy director of the Censorship Department."
"I see."
Li Mingxuan got the answer he wanted and didn't say much, just hung up the phone.
Although Zhao Wenping didn't say anything about what happened last night, he still heard the meaning of Zhao's words. Hao Zhenmin and Fang Luo Wei were just on a whim, so he might not think of the drug application at once. It must be someone behind him who instigated him. As for the instigators, apart from Shen Rong, Li Mingxuan couldn't think of anyone else who would dare to do this. No matter what purpose Shen Rong had, whether to please Hao Zhenmin or to resist Shen Xi, in the end, Shen Xi drank this glass of wine, and Li Mingxuan's face became completely cold when he thought of this.
After hesitating for a while, Li Mingxuan called Lin Yao.
"Hi, I'm Li Mingxuan."
"Nothing goes without going to the Three Treasures Palace. Last time you looked for me, you poached me as a gold medal agent. What's the matter with me now?" Lin Yao obviously had a good relationship with Li Mingxuan. Quite casual, with a hint of ridicule.
Li Mingxuan couldn't help laughing, "There is indeed something. I heard that you have a good relationship with the people above the film bureau. Do I need you to do me a favor?"
"What's up?"
"Help me check the release of a film, Zhou Xiaozhou's "Counter Current"."
"Countercurrent?" Lin Yao was very surprised, but chuckled lightly, "I have heard of this film, and it is said that the illegitimate son of the Shen family also participated in it and invested most of his net worth. You Such a card is a bit unkind."
Li Mingxuan didn't care about Lin Yao's ridicule, "How is it? Can you help?"
"Help, of course help, it's just a matter of saying hello." For Lin Yao, this was just a small effort, and he was naturally willing to sell Li Mingxuan a favor.
Li Mingxuan thanked him with a smile, and then the topic changed, "I took a piece of land in Nancheng to build an entertainment center, are you interested?"
There was a hearty laugh on the phone, "Of course I'm interested, you know I'm going to build a new theater, and I'm worried that there is no place. But, it can't be that simple, right?"
Li Mingxuan smiled slightly, "One more small matter."
"I knew it. What?"
Li Mingxuan asked simply, "Do you know Hao Zhenmin?"
"Hao Zhenmin? Deputy Director of the Film Bureau? Did he offend you?" Lin Yao's words were full of surprises.
"That's right." Li Mingxuan gave a faint "um".
Lin Yao figured it out right away, pondered a little, and quickly replied, "I see, it's time for Hao Zhenmin to retire at his age. You wait for my news."
Li Mingxuan has always appreciated Lin Yao's simplicity. "Okay, let's have dinner together another day."
Hang up the phone, Li Mingxuan threw the phone aside, and Lin Yao came forward to estimate that "Counter Current" will never be released again. I just don't know what my uncle will think of Shen Rong losing such a large amount of money.
The thought was only for a moment, and Li Mingxuan quickly put all his thoughts back on Shen Xi. It is estimated that Xiaoxi will wake up soon. I don't know what Xiaoxi wants to eat after waking up?
Shen Xi slept straight into the night, this time he was awakened by hunger.
Li Mingxuan hilariously brought the hot dinner in front of Shen Xi, and while Shen Xi was eating, he lightly mentioned the matter of his entrusting Lin Yao.
"No release license?" Shen Xi glanced at Li Mingxuan strangely, and laughed with schadenfreude, "Shen Rong will definitely be very distressed when she learns this news."
Shen Xi's face was full of cunning, with indescribable agility, Li Mingxuan suddenly found that he liked Shen Xi's appearance more than Shen Xi's usual quietness.
I couldn't help reaching out and rubbing Shen Xi's head, Li Mingxuan assured softly, "Don't worry, this kind of thing will never happen again."
Shen Xi bowed her head noncommittally, past experience told him that the only one who can truly trust in this world is always himself.
After dinner, Shen Xi couldn't sleep anymore, and was bored lying on the bed playing games. Li Mingxuan quietly stayed by Shen Xi's side, flipping through the documents in his hand, sometimes looking up at Shen Xi. Neither of the two said a word, and there was a touch of warmth in the house until Li Mingxuan's cell phone rang. Glancing at the screen, Li Mingxuan walked to the living room with his mobile phone. Shen Xi stared at Li Mingxuan's back for a while, then reached out and took out his mobile phone to send a text message to Old K.
The matter of taking the medicine last night cannot be separated from Shen Rong's shadow. Although Li Mingxuan has made a counterattack, for Shen Xi, it is not enough for Shen Rong to lose a sum of money.
"Send a photo of Shen Rong and Tian Wenyao together by express to Mr. Tian and Tian Wenyao's fiancee."
Old K's information came back soon, but it had nothing to do with what he said. "Xiao Xixi, are you alright? I heard Luo Wei said you were drugged, how is it?"
Although through the screen of the mobile phone, Shen Xi can feel the rich gossip atmosphere of Old K. Thinking about what happened last night, Shen Xi's expression distorted for a moment.
"I hope they will receive the photos the day after tomorrow at the latest."
"When have I ever let you down, Xiao Xixi, but are you really not going to talk to me about prescribing medicine?"
"Go!"
"Hey, Xiao Xixi, are you angry?"
Shen Xi stared at the last text message, made up for the look on Old K's face at this time, and immediately deleted all the text messages angrily, then put the phone under the pillow .
After a while, the phone started beeping, Shen Xi pretended not to hear, the phone did not stop as he expected, but kept ringing so much that Even Li Mingxuan, who was in the living room, was alarmed, and his eyes signaled that something had happened to Shen Xi.
Shen Xi took out the phone with a stern face, to his surprise, Old K didn't mention the drug, but mentioned Chu Qianqian.
After reading Lao K's text message quickly, Shen Xi frowned, and after thinking for a while, she simply replied with the word "good".
"Xiao Xixi, do you think this plan is a good one? I'll make adjustments based on your experience." Just as Shen Xi's text message was sent, Old K immediately replied with a text message, Complimented, she showed her merit to Shen Xi.
Shen Xi watched this sentence and endured and endured, and finally chose to turn off the phone and shoved it under the pillow.
The plan mentioned by Old K, Shen Xi heard from Chu Qianqian once before, he has always let her go to Chu Qianqian, the process is arbitrary, he only needs the final result.
The two have not seen each other since the last time they met at Shen's house, they have only been in contact by phone, and Shen Xi is also used to Chu Qianqian reporting things to him regularly Progress.
Due to the outbreak of the Yun Rou incident during this period, Father Shen put all his energy on Mrs. Shen, and inevitably did not have time to pay attention to Chu Qianqian. Chu Qianqian was not in a hurry about this, she just kept in touch with Father Shen and only met occasionally.
Old K initially questioned Chu Qianqian's inaction when he was impatient, but was despised by Chu Qianqian.
"Do you think Shen Dehan is stupid? According to his age, he is about to be my grandfather. How can I fall in love with him when the age gap is so big?"
Old K was dumbfounded by Chu Qianqian's question. Under normal circumstances, Chu Qianqian could not fall in love with Shen's father. On the contrary, if Chu Qianqian was too active, it would make Shen's father feel wrong.
Looking at the dazed look of Old K, Chu Qianqian smiled with satisfaction, "Don't worry, I have always had a professional ethic when I do things with money."
Chu Qianqian has always been very clear about her position. She wants to make Father Shen fall in love with her, instead of treating herself as a mistress like Zhou Mingmei. If she is too eager, it will only make Father Shen feel that she is interested in his money. So, what is the difference between her and the woman before Father Shen?
Chu Qianqian's plan is actually very simple. Under normal circumstances, she would never fall in love with Shen's father, but what if something happened suddenly? Although the trick of heroes saving beauty is old, it has always been easy to use. Through this period of time, Father Shen's impression of Chu Qianqian became more and more good. In this case, what if Chu Qianqian was raped and saved by Shen's father? It is only natural for a traumatized girl to fall in love with her savior when she is in a trance.
It's just that the incident of Shen Xi being drugged yesterday gave old K a new inspiration.
Instead of letting Chu Qianqian fall in love with Shen's father and be passive, it is better to make Shen's father feel guilty, and instead take the initiative in Chu Qianqian's hands.
Even if Shen Xi picks this idea, she can't pick out any faults, but when she thinks of the source of old K's inspiration, Shen Xi can't help but darken her face.
"What's the matter?" After answering the phone, Li Mingxuan noticed Shen Xi's expression and came over worriedly, "What's wrong?"
Speaking of this, Shen Xi's expression became even more ugly. Glancing at Li Mingxuan angrily, Shen Xi irritably rolled over and lay down, "Sleep!"
Shen Xi's tone made Li Mingxuan stunned for a moment, then he thought of something and couldn't help but laugh.
