One Useless Rebirth

Chapter 127: Bromance (3)

The endless guesswork made He Bai emotionally disturbed. Looking at the heavy meal, He Bai had no appetite. He missed that carefree He Bai who had no romantic entanglement with anyone so much.

Thinking of that, he couldn't help glancing at Di Qiuhe who buried in eating. He Bai said indifferently: "You little menace." Di Qiuhe put a pork ribs into He Bai's bowl. He frowned and asked: "What did you say? Why aren't you eating, don't like the food? Shall I order something else for you?"

He Bai looked at his worried face, he felt he was choked in his chest. He lowered his head and decided to turn his upset into appetite.

So, Di Qiuhe just cared about him as a big brother? Or even as a father? After all, he sometimes treated He Bai like a son…He stopped chewing and clutched his chopsticks, eyes turning intent.

That was too bad. Di Qiuhe had too much impact on his emotion. He Bai decided to avoid him from now on.

He swallowed the rib and wiped his mouth, saying to Di Qiuhe, "This week my homework is "emotion". I have taken enough photos here today, so I want to take a look at somewhere else tomorrow, you know, for inspiration. Oh right, I will visit Xing Shaofeng by the way, so I'll not go to the spot with you."

Di Qiuhe, who was making a roasted duck roll for him, turned to him quickly and raised his voice, "You want to visit Xin Shaofeng? For a whole day?" He altogether had two days off, and he should have planned to spare one day for Xing Shaofeng?

"A whole may be too long, half day, I think. He comes here to find a doctor and was admitted this morning for treatment. Since we plan to hire him, we should be more considerate, so I have to visit him." He Bai explained.

Di Qiuhe's eyebrows knotted: "When? When had we talked about hiring him?"

"Yester…" He Bai stopped and goggled at him confusedly, "Haven't I told you? That I want to hire him as your agent? He is competent and can definitely help you a lot."

Diu Qiuhe was also baffled. He had a drink, trying to restrain his smile and then looked at him, asking, "So you do that for me? You know I don't have an agent and you find me one?"

He Bai was frightened by his serious face, and the emotional stuff was all left behind. He also said seriously, "Qiuhe, don't blame me as a busybody. An actor can work without a company, but he must have an agent. Assistant Wang is competent, of course, but his energy is limited. When he has to take care of you, he doesn't have time to deal with other stuff. Assistant An, on the other hand, is still inexperienced, and cannot deal with these alone. This film will be finished in two months, then what will you do next? Someone has to make a plan for you. Although the image of Xing Shaofeng is bad now, and he doesn't have connections with the showbiz, but as long as he is willing, no other agents can be better than him."

Seeing He Bai doing his best to convince him, Di Qiuhe was deeply touched…Little Puppy approached Xing Shaofeng for him. Jealousy immediately transformed into sweetness.

He Bai noticed Di Qiuhe didn't say anything and thought that he didn't buy it, so he put down the chopsticks and elaborated it: "As Xing Shaofeng's old boss was selfish and didn't want him to be famous, he kept Xing Shaofeng at his side closely. That's why he wasn't famous now. If I had enough money, I would have hired him as my agent. Qiuhe, believe me, he's worth it. You will never regret…"

Di Qiuhe couldn't restrain his happiness any more and pinched He Bai's face gently.

He Bai was shocked and frowned. He pulled Di Qiuhe's hand away, "Stop it. I'm talking about real work."

"You're the boss." Di Qiuhe smiled at him and couldn't help jabbing his dimple again. He was so happy and said that, "My Little Puppy, I will keep feeding you till you gain weight." Then he could keep He Bai's company all the time.

He Bai couldn't understand that vague whisper of love. His face turned dark when he recalled his dislike yesterday and today's big brother's love. He squeezed a dumpling into Di Qiuhe's mouth and said angrily: "Just shut up! I can feed myself! Give me your credit card. When Xing Shaofeng agrees to take the job, he will ask for money. I don't have that much."

Di Qiuhe blinked and chewed the dumpling silently. He took out his wallet and gave He Bai, saying vaguely: "All yours, at your disposal."

He Bai's heart raced uncontrollable. He pressed Di Qiuhe's face and pushed it towards the table, saying angrily, "Don't laugh! It's not polite to talk while eating! Just eat!" His generosity to give him the wallet must also come out of his big brother's love! Di Qiuhe turned his head sideways and wiped his mouth on He's hand.

He Bai's hand apparently felt Di Qiuhe's mouth. He took back his hand abruptly and swallowed a pig's foot, which got his mouth oily and he rubbed against Di Qiuhe's hand vengefully, then let go of his hand, sneering, "Assistant Wang told me that you were a neat freak. That's a good habit."

Di Qiuhe stopped smiling and clutched his hands gradually, eyes staring at He Bai.

He Bai goggled at him, "What? Want a fight?"

He pressed his mouth into a thin line, Di Qiuhe immediately pulled He Bai into his arms and rubbed his head against He Bai's neck and shoulders. Then he made He Bai sit on his legs, held him closely, hands fondling him randomly.

He Bai was shocked and struggled, "Ugh! Your hands are oily, don't touch me! Neither can your mouth! Damn! Don't rub my waist! Eww, I don't want this shirt anymore!"

Getting oily by that big brother, He Bai came back to the room and kicked Di Qiuhe out. Then he called director Jiang indifferently, telling him that Di Qiuhe wanted to communicated with him about some different opinions on the plot but shy to say it. Then Di Qiuhe was called to burn the night oil on discussing the scripts.

The next day, He Bai took his camera and arrived at Xing Shaofeng's luxurious single ward.

"Thanks for visiting me." Xing Shaofeng let him sit on the sofa and poured him a cup of tea. He asked with a smile, "I hear that you only have two days off. I thought Di Qiuhe would never let you out."

He Bai's dimples got deeper. He gritted his teeth tightly, "Who is he?" He was just an arrogant big brother. He had no say in this matter anyway.

Xing Shaofeng glanced at his expression and smiled more brightly. He poured a cup of tea for himself, saying nothing.

"What does the doctor say?" He Bai regained his calmness quickly and asked. He put down the cup and adjusted his expression.

"Quite well. After the scab of affected parts on the face fell off, I will receive some minor reconstructive surgeries, then I can leave the hospital." Xing Shaofeng answered. He noticed He Bai's camera bag and asked, "I have been a little bored since I moved in yesterday, so I searched you and Di Qiuhe on the Internet. Are you a photographer?"

He Bai nodded and asked, "Yeah, what do you think?"

"Quite interested, in both of you." Xing Shaofeng didn't hide his interest and pointed at his camera bag, asking, "Can I see your works?"

He Bai gave him the camera without hesitation.

There were not many photos, most of which were taken in the filming spot yesterday. It would take several minutes to browse them, yet it took Xing Shaofeng quite a long time. He Bai noticed that Xing Shaofeng particularly liked some pictures, gazing at them repeatedly.

Xing Shaofeng put down the camera half an hour later.

He Bai also put down the magazine he took randomly and said in a seemingly casual manner, "Most of them were taken in Di Qiuhe's new filming spot. As something bad had happened to his family, I thought that he and other workers would have been affected by that. However, I found that everyone was fine yesterday, as good as before."

He was signaling that Di Qiuhe was popular.

Xing Shaofeng returned the camera and nodded with a smile, "Good pictures. Obviously, Di Qiuhe is working on a big-budget film. I can't find any information about it, so it is shot secretly? Is it OK for me to see these photos?"

He Bai shook his head, "It doesn't matter. I trust your professional ethics and your honesty.

"It's a privilege to get your trust." Xing Shaofeng refilled the cup for him and said after a short thinking, "Di Qiuhe is outstanding. I can take this job, but I still have a concern."

He Bai was excited and said hurriedly, "Is it your illness? That's nothing. You can start after you heal. Besides, currently Di Qiuhe still needs some time to finish his filming."

"Not that." Xing Shaofeng shook his head with a smile and measured He Bai's expression carefully, saying, "I am concerned about some private issues of him. Can I have his contact? I would like to directly talk with him."
