Huayu: Starting from managing the Mahua FunAge Theater Troupe

Shen Feiyang and his group arrived at Guijie Street.

This is a famous night market street in Xicheng District.

The group followed Tian Youliang toward a shop that specialized in crayfish.

As Tian Youliang walked, he showed off his knowledge to everyone: "The name Guijie was changed from Guijie (Ghost Street) in 2000. There used to be a cemetery outside Dongzhimen. The vendors at the morning market used kerosene lamps, which made it eerie, hence the name Guijie. Later, they thought it was too vulgar, so they changed it to Gui, a bronze vessel used to hold food, like bowls or plates."

"Director Tian is truly knowledgeable. Guijie, the name suits you quite well," Wenzhang chimed in at the opportune moment.

Shen Feiyang looked around and a sense of nostalgia welled up in his heart.

He used to run a barbecue restaurant here in his past life.

I still remember that Acha, who sold Xinjiang-style kebabs next door, was quite flamboyant.

Li Xiaolu glanced at Shen Feiyang silently a few times.

Zhu Yuchen looked down and replied to his mother's text message.

They said they would go out to eat with the teacher or something.

The group had just entered the crayfish shop.

Tian Youliang's phone rang.

I took out my phone and looked at it.

It was a call from Zhu Yuchen's mother.

Tian Youliang glanced at Zhu Yuchen and answered the phone: "Feed? Yuchen's mother."

"Yu Chen is with me. We'll go back after dinner."

"There were no girls present; I was having dinner with investors."

???

Li Xiaolu looked completely bewildered.

Am I not a girl?!

Zhu Yuchen remained silent and simply sat down with the others.

"Yu Chen, answer the phone." Tian Youliang handed the phone to Zhu Yu Chen.

Zhu Yuchen took the phone: "Hello, Mom, I already told you I'm with Teacher Tian."

"Okay, okay."

"I'll go back after I finish eating."

"I really don't drink. Bye."

A strong desire for control.

Shen Feiyang could almost see an invisible giant hand condensing from the phone.

It's really weird.

Li Xiaolu muttered a complaint to herself.

Four men.

Wen Zhang is a sycophant, Zhu Yuchen is still a child, Tian Youliang is too cultured, and Shen Feiyang is the most pleasing to the eye.

Li Xiaolu glanced at Shen Feiyang sitting to one side.

Shen Feiyang and Zhu Yuchen sat side by side, facing Wen Zhang, who was sitting next to Tian Youliang.

Li Xiaolu sat alone on one side.

Wenzhang picked up the teapot on the table and poured tea for each of them.

Although he got involved with Gao Yuanyuan through "You Are Smiling But I Am Crying" and entered the Beijing entertainment circle, and also starred in "Days Related to Youth", he was still just a marginal figure in that circle.

For him, the opportunity to play the male lead in a TV series was like a windfall.

So he seized every opportunity to make a good impression on Shen Feiyang, serving tea, acting as a straight man, and showing himself off in every little detail.

Tian Youliang ordered 300 crayfish and two cold dishes.

The crayfish on Guijie Street are sold by the piece.

"Please give me a bottle of Coke." After Tian Youliang finished ordering, Shen Feiyang turned to the waiter and said.

Li Xiaolu then said, "I want a bottle of Coke too."

"Give me a Coke too," Emblem hurriedly said.

Tian Youliang and Zhu Yuchen did not order drinks.

Tian Youliang complained, "After turning thirty, I really don't dare to touch beverages anymore."

Shen Feiyang casually joked, "It's a good time to focus on my career."

"Hahaha."

Tian Youliang chuckled a few times.

Li Xiaolu then asked Shen Feiyang curiously, "Mr. Shen, are you really only 19 years old?"

Shen Feiyang nodded slightly: "Yes."

Tian Youliang: "I can testify to this. When President Shen first came to Beijing last year, he had just finished the college entrance examination."

Wen Zhang seized the opportunity and said some nice things: "President Shen is really amazing. In just one year, you have created a hit national variety show like 'Chinese Comedians'. Now you have invested 1000 million to produce a TV series. I would like to offer you a toast with tea instead of wine."

As he spoke, Henbo picked up his teacup.

Li Xiaolu silently rolled her eyes.

She despises men who are subservient.

Shen Feiyang looked at Wenzhang, who was drinking a cup of tea by himself, and said, "Don't do this if you haven't been drinking. Let's just chat casually. I only gave you this opportunity to play Lu Tao, such a crucial role, because Director Tian strongly recommended you."

Wen Zhang said with trepidation, "President Shen, please rest assured, I will cherish this opportunity and play the role of Lu Tao well."

"Um."

Shen Feiyang didn't say anything more.

Li Xiaolu put down her cola and asked curiously, "President Shen, were you also the one who spearheaded the creation of the story 'Lost in Thailand'?"

"right."

Shen Feiyang casually said, "What? Interested in stage comedy? How about a guest role? But let me make it clear first, the pay isn't much, a few hundred yuan at most per show."

"Money doesn't matter."

Li Xiaolu asked with a smile, "President Shen, which role are you planning to let me play? The female con artist? I think I can play it well."

"That mistress of Li Chenggong," Shen Feiyang said with a slightly teasing tone.

"How annoying~" Li Xiaolu pretended to be angry and glared at Shen Feiyang.

"Hahaha."

Shen Feiyang chuckled casually a few times: "If there's a suitable role in the next stage play, I'll ask you to do a cameo."

"Okay. I'll take that seriously. Give me your phone number and QQ number." Li Xiaolu didn't stand on ceremony.

Shen Feiyang gave her his mobile phone number and QQ number.

He quietly memorized the emblem and said, "President Shen, I can also act in stage plays."

I will contact you when the time is right.

Zhu Yuchen wanted to say something, but remembering his mother, he remained silent.

This is a complete mess.

Tian Youliang was at his wit's end with this student.

In my opinion, Zhu Yuchen's talent is on par with Deng Chao's, but unfortunately, his mother is holding him back.

Tian Youliang originally intended to strongly recommend Zhu Yuchen for the role of Lu Tao, but because of the unpredictable nature of Zhu Yuchen's mother, he held back and only gave Zhu Yuchen a supporting role. If something went wrong, replacing him wouldn't be a big deal.

The atmosphere of the chat relaxed thanks to Li Xiaolu.

The group chatted casually.

After a while.

The prepared crayfish were served on the table.

……

More than an hour later, Shen Feiyang and his companions, having eaten and drunk their fill, paid the bill and left the restaurant.

Shen Feiyang and Li Xiaolu both drove.

Shen Feiyang drove Tian Youliang, Wen Zhang, and Zhu Yuchen back to the Central Academy of Drama.

Li Xiaolu originally planned to go straight home, but after following Shen Feiyang's car out of the parking lot, she changed direction and followed Shen Feiyang.

……

It's not far from Guijie Street to the Central Academy of Drama, about three kilometers.

Tian Youliang and Zhu Yuchen both live near the Central Academy of Drama.

Wen Zhang found a hotel nearby.

When they arrived at the drop-off point, the three of them got off the bus.

drip...

Shen Feiyang picked up his phone casually.

Li Xiaolu: Go back to the last intersection you passed and pick me up.

Shen Feiyang raised an eyebrow, put down his phone, stepped on the gas, and drove to the opening ahead to make a U-turn.

……

"I'm freezing!"

After waiting at the intersection for a while, Li Xiaolu got into the passenger seat and casually complained to Shen Feiyang next to her.

She was only wearing a coat, sweater, thermal pants, and jeans, an outfit that certainly couldn't withstand the late nights in Beijing in December.

Shen Feiyang didn't ask her where she was going. As he stepped on the gas and drove towards the suburbs, he said, "You're pretty bold. Aren't you afraid of paparazzi following you?"

"What's there to be afraid of, paparazzi..."

……

Li Xiaolu and Shen Feiyang were chatting.

As they drove out of the city, Li Xiaolu blinked: "Seriously? This is big on our first time?"

"Since we're going to seek thrills, let's go all the way."

……

The car drove to an empty, deserted, and unobstructed area in the suburbs.

"You're the mistress now..."

In the back seat of the car, Li Xiaolu fluttered around for a while, then hummed and whispered in Shen Feiyang's ear.
