How can you ascend to heaven when you are a star?

Chapter 214: Say Whatever

Perhaps because of the alcohol, Han Xiaohua became very talkative. He pulled Zhang Wen to talk about the food on the table, the casting during the day, the actors' acting skills, and the secrets of the circle. The meal lasted more than two hours.

"Xiao Zhang, how do you feel now? How about we talk about hypnosis tomorrow?" Xu Li looked at the young man opposite worriedly. The other party had drunk a bottle of Maotai, and she didn't know what his condition was and whether it would affect the treatment.

In fact, during the meal, she wanted to dissuade them from doing so, but when she saw her husband and Xiao Zhang chatting animatedly, she swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue.

Her husband rarely brings anyone home for dinner, and he has been suffering from neurasthenia in recent years. How could she do something to spoil his fun when he is so happy today?

"Sister-in-law, I'm fine." Zhang Wen said after hearing this.

For him, one bottle of Maozi is just enough to gargle with. Even if he drinks ten or eight bottles, it is no problem. He was not bragging when he said "drink it all the time".

"Honey, don't worry." Han Xiaohua, whose face was flushed from drinking, said at this time: "Brother Zhang can drink a lot. Not to mention the two of us, even if there were more people, he wouldn't be able to drink. I had dinner with him a while ago, and he had to help me back to the studio."

A hint of surprise flashed in Xu Li's eyes. Alcohol tolerance is something that can be practiced. Xiao Zhang has such a good alcohol tolerance at such a young age. Does he drink often?
He looks gentle and refined, not like a drunkard.

She looked at him carefully. After drinking a bottle of Maozi, his face was not red, his eyes were not cloudy, and he was not drunk at all. This Xiao Zhang was indeed not an ordinary person.

"Xiao Zhang, do you think my condition is serious?" Xu Li asked. Although the other party had said that there was no problem before, she still felt a little nervous.

"It's not serious. It can be cured through three sessions of hypnosis, each lasting two hours." Zhang Wen said in a relaxed tone.

In fact, when he first saw the TV queen Xu, he noticed the anxiety monster, a derivative of the intermediate negative personality, on the other person, but it was smaller than the anxiety monster on Director Han.

He could now deal with monsters like this with just a wave of his hand, but in order to conceal his tracks, he had to continue using the excuse of hypnosis.

Otherwise, he would have to pay 400,000 yuan just by waving his hand. How unbalanced would Queen Xu be?

So, when dealing with children in special education schools, he can just wave his hand to deal with the monsters without wasting time, but when dealing with customers who have spent money, he must put on a show.

It's like going to the hospital and spending hundreds or thousands of yuan in registration fees to see a specialist, but the specialist says it's not serious and it will be fine after taking two pills. When the patient is discharged from the hospital, he or she will definitely feel that the hundreds or thousands of yuan in registration fees were wasted.

Anyway, he has to be casting with Director Han these days, so he can go to Director Han's house after get off work. In addition to treating his sister-in-law, he can also get closer to Director Han and have dinner with him. It's a win-win situation, so why not do it?
"Three times? Not as serious as mine." Han Xiaohua said with a smile after hearing it.

What he meant was to tell his wife: My condition is worse than yours, but I'm fine now, so don't worry.

Sure enough, when Xu Li heard that insomnia could be cured with just three sessions of hypnosis, she felt relieved and a smile appeared on her face.

I am not afraid of the high medical fees, I am just afraid of not being able to cure the disease.

"Xiao Zhang, it's getting late, let's start." Xu Li said anxiously. She hadn't had a good night's sleep for many days.

"Okay." Zhang Wen nodded.

Xu Li immediately led the way and came to a guest bedroom on the first floor.

The room was clean and the bed was already made with a quilt, obviously it had been prepared long ago.

Xu Li was lying on the bed, her head resting on the pillow. Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, she turned around and asked, "Do you want to cover yourself with a blanket?"

"Go ahead. I won't call you after the hypnosis is over. You can sleep until you wake up naturally." Zhang Wen said.

It's already 8:30 in the evening, and in two hours it will be 10:30. There's no need to wake anyone up.

Xu Li covered herself with the quilt and closed her eyes. She had heard her husband talk about Xiao Zhang's hypnosis process, but she didn't know if what she would be listening to was a math lecture.

Han Xiaohua had been hypnotized before and knew that no outsiders could be present when Zhang was being hypnotized, so he consciously walked out of the guest room and closed the door.

Instead of going back to the bedroom, he sat down in the living room, took out a piece of white paper and started drawing storyboards.

Maybe it was because of the alcohol, I felt sleepy right after I finished drawing one, and soon fell asleep leaning on the sofa.

Zhang Wen still used the most traditional mathematics lectures to hypnotize Xu Li. He also gave physics lectures and chemistry lectures, but the effects were slightly inferior to those of mathematics lectures.

Not long after the calculus lecture began, Xu Li fell asleep, which only took two or three minutes.

In fact, when Zhang Wen followed Xu Li to the guest room, he had already used the Whip of Education to casually put the intermediate negative personality derivatives on the other party into the Wenqu Tower.

So when Xu Li was lying in bed, her insomnia had already been cured. In addition, maybe she hadn't slept well recently, so she fell asleep so quickly after listening to the math lecture.

Zhang Wen looked at the sleeping Xu Shihou, sat down on a chair beside him, and then used up the blessing from the Star God he had received this time.

As the golden pointer stopped at 6 o'clock, four large golden words appeared in the grid: Keep working hard!
The corners of Zhang Wen's mouth twitched involuntarily, and he felt that his efforts were not respected.

He found that since it became easier to kill monsters, the probability of obtaining treasures through the Star God's blessing has become smaller and smaller. Previously, the ratio of treasures to encouragement was one to one, but now it is close to one to three. After obtaining a treasure once, he will receive encouragement three more times. It really proves the saying: the easier it is to get something, the less valuable it is.

It has become easier to obtain blessings, but the things you get are becoming less and less valuable.

Zhang Wen sighed inwardly, then took out his cell phone from his pocket and started playing Landlord.

The hands on the clock keep turning.

The two hours of treatment passed quickly.

As soon as 10:30 arrived, Zhang Wen immediately put away his phone and tiptoed out of the room.

"Hoo!" "Hoo!" "Hoo!"

There were bursts of snoring, although not loud, they were particularly obvious in the quiet living room.

Zhang Wen looked at Director Han who was sleeping soundly, and felt a little amused and helpless for a moment. It seems that having too good sleep quality is not necessarily a good thing. He couldn't even feel that there were people around him.

He originally wanted to leave like this, but he felt it was impolite. After thinking about it, he decided to wake the person up. As for whether he could get some sleep later, that was the other person's business.

"Director Han! Director Han?"

Han Xiaohua slowly opened his eyes, was stunned for a moment when he saw the person in front of him, and then stood up.

"Brother Zhang, is the hypnosis over?"

"Well, it's over. My sister-in-law is still sleeping in there. I'll leave first. Director Han, you should go back to the bedroom and sleep too." Zhang Wen said.

"Brother Zhang, thank you for your hard work." Han Xiaohua looked out the window and saw that it was pitch black outside, so he said, "Brother Zhang, it's so dark, why don't you stay here tonight? There's a room upstairs."

"Thank you, Director Han, but I still have some things to deal with back home, so I won't disturb you anymore. See you tomorrow." After saying that, Zhang Wen walked towards the gate.

"Wait!" Han Xiaohua suddenly called out, then pulled out a travel bag from under the coffee table. "Brother Zhang, take it. Wait here for a moment. I'll call the property management and have them send a car to pick you up. Otherwise, it's easy to get lost in the community since it's your first time here."

Then he picked up his phone and made a call.

Zhang Wen took the bag and although he didn't open it, he knew what was inside.

It must be the medical expenses.

As the old saying goes: Brothers should settle accounts clearly.

So he didn't try to be humble with the other party. After all, this was what he deserved. People with real ability would not feel guilty about accepting the money.

Not long after, a car stopped outside the villa.

After seeing this, Han Xiaohua personally escorted Zhang Wen out the door and said, "Brother Zhang, see you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow."

Zhang Wen waved his hand and got into the car.

The car drove through the villa area and took several minutes to reach the gate of the community.

Zhang Wen got out of the car and was about to call an online taxi when suddenly a white Mercedes-Benz G-Class stopped in front of him. As the passenger window slowly lowered, a beautiful face appeared inside.

"Get in the car!" Bai Lu waved to the man outside the car with a bright smile on his face.

Zhang Wen opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat. He looked at the woman puzzledly and asked, "Why are you here?"

He remembered that he had said on WeChat before that he didn't need a beautiful woman's car service.

"After finishing the sign language class, I felt bored at home alone, so I drove out for a drive. I just happened to see you when I got here." Bai Lu explained while driving.

Zhang Wen is not a child, how could he believe such an explanation?

The capital city is not big, but not small either. If two people don't want to meet each other, they can completely avoid running into each other in their entire lives. How could they meet here by such a coincidence?

"How long have you been waiting?" Zhang Wen asked, feeling warm in his heart.

"I told you it was a coincidence, why don't you believe it?"

"Believe it, isn't it okay for me to believe it?"

Seeing the woman pretending to be serious, Zhang Wen finally did not expose her white lie.

Bai Lu smiled, then noticed the travel bag in the man's hand and asked curiously, "What's in the bag? A change of clothes, right?"

"It's medical expenses." Zhang Wen said as he opened the zipper of his travel bag. Looking at the bundles of red bills inside, the corners of his mouth immediately raised.

He took a deep breath. Yes, that was the smell.

"Director Han's wife's?" Bai Lu asked.

"Yeah." Zhang Wen nodded.

"You're awesome!" Bai Lu gave a thumbs up and then took hold of the steering wheel again. "Others would give money directly to get closer to Director Han, but you're so good as to take it from Director Han."

"You don't understand. Director Han doesn't like to owe favors to others. If I don't charge for the treatment, he'll definitely think I have ulterior motives towards him, and that would backfire." Zhang Wen said calmly, "Talking about money may be vulgar, but it's the most direct way to resolve a problem. Understand?"

Bai Lu nodded, not quite understanding.

Zhang Wen then thought of Director Han asking him if he had a girlfriend, so he said, "Bai Lu, the drama 'Perfect Days' will start filming in a month. You must hurry up and prepare. Don't slack off during the shoot."

Bai Lu sat up straight upon hearing this and asked nervously, "Did Director Han say something? Does he still think I'm not suitable for urban dramas? Did you tell him that I've been studying recently? Did you help me explain..."

For a moment, her mouth turned into a machine gun, throwing out questions one after another, without giving others a chance to answer.

Zhang Wen did not answer the questions one by one, but just said one sentence directly.

"I told Director Han that we are dating."

"what?"

Bai Lu's little mouth, which had been chattering all the time, suddenly stopped and opened in surprise, like the letter "O". At the same time, her whole pretty face turned red.

Zhang Wen zipped up his travel bag and looked at the woman who had suddenly lost power with a half-smile. He asked, "Why are you silent? You're not blaming me for telling Director Han about this, are you? And really, how can a female celebrity's love life be exposed so casually?"

"No!" Bai Lu came to his senses and shook his head quickly.

For her, it doesn't matter if she's exposed among her peers, as long as it doesn't make the news.

In fact, this kind of thing is very common in the entertainment industry. Many celebrities have boyfriends or girlfriends, and everyone in the industry knows about it, even many entertainment reporters know about it, but it has never been exposed, so fans are unaware.

She really didn't mean to blame the other person. On the contrary, she was even very grateful to the man because he was helping her.

She knew that Director Han had always had feelings for her, and even if she finally accepted the invitation, it was only because of the script.

Who wrote the script?

This man wrote it.

In addition to the script, this man also treats Director Han and his wife. Their relationship is incomparable to that of ordinary people. So at this time, the other party can say that he is dating her, which can completely change Director Han's attitude towards her, and will be of great benefit to her in the future filming. At least for the sake of this man, Director Han will not criticize and scold her mercilessly.

Isn't there a saying that goes, "Don't judge a monk by his appearance, judge a Buddha by his appearance."

Director Han may not care about her feelings, but he cannot ignore her boyfriend's feelings.

"squeak!"

The car suddenly stopped by the roadside.

Due to inertia, Zhang Wen's body suddenly rushed forward. Fortunately, he was fastened by a seat belt, otherwise he would have hit the windshield in front.

Just when he thought there was something wrong with the car, he saw Bai Lu turn around and said sincerely, "Teacher Zhang, thank you."

Zhang Wen was stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared on his face.

It seems that this woman has guessed his good intentions, and it was worth it for him to risk losing the entire forest to tell Director Han that they were dating.

"What are you thanking me for? I'm just telling the truth. Aren't we dating?" Zhang Wen asked.

When Bai Lu heard the word "dating", her heart was filled with joy for a moment. She thought that the other party was going to keep it secret and didn't want to admit it.

By the way, has the other party told anyone that he is dating Sister Yue?
It seems that they never said anything, they just went in and out of the company together.

Does this count as winning a game?
Thinking of this, she hugged the man and offered him a kiss.

"You're right, we are dating, and I'm the one pursuing you. You can say whatever you want."

"..."
