I didn't answer Mi Cai directly, and I still said to her very seriously: "Can you talk about your opinion of Mi Zhongde, okay?"

Mi Cai changed his gaze and looked forward, and then the car speed increased again. After a while, he said to me: "He is a person who clearly distinguishes work and personal feelings, and is a businessman."

"He is your uncle too."

Mi Cai's words were very light, but imply an instinctive rejection, saying, "I know what you want to say to me, but at this stage I have to cooperate with him to counter the investors, which is really a business taboo, which is an adventure for Zhuomei."

"Are you afraid that other investors will be affected by this incident and be cautious and wait-and-see about investing in Zhuomei?"

“This is just one of them.”

"No matter how many concerns you have, at least you have to give the other party a chance to talk. Maybe you will gain something? ...My Zhongde is in a very awkward situation now. You have a foundation for cooperation."

"That's also for the sake of interests. There will inevitably be conflicts of interest in the future. Do you have to continue to break up and get back together so much?"

I pondered for a while and asked, "What if it was a cooperation for family affection?"

"If my uncle really asked me for cooperation for family affection, I would definitely agree... But who can be sure that the so-called family affection is not his expedient approach?"

I refuted Mi Cai silently, and just muttered in my own voice: "Living is just a game arranged by fate for us. Why are you all so serious? What do you want to get when you are so serious?..."

......

Back in the old room, Mi Cai went to the bathroom to wash, and I sat in the living room smoking, and then repeated the "Living Game Theory" that Fang Yuan said tonight. He still felt that he was different from his understanding of the game, so he guessed how he viewed this game of life... After a long time, he still had no idea, so he couldn't figure out why he had to use his own cognition to speculate on others without results.

When the cigarette was about to finish smoking, Mi Cai finally walked out of the bathroom with her wet hair. Now she no longer cared about me smoking in the room, so she sat down on the sofa opposite me calmly, then handed me a fruit tray and asked me to eat the grapes inside.

I signaled not to eat, and she didn't force herself. She was watching a financial magazine while eating grapes. My smoking addiction seemed to be very addicted tonight, so I took out a cigarette from the cigarette box and lit it... Mi Cai remained calm, but just opened all the windows in the living room to let the smell of smoke dissipate faster.

When I put out the cigarette butts in my hand, she also closed the magazine in her hand and looked at me...

"What, are you trying to encourage me to smoke another cigarette?"

"Don't be afraid of lung disease, you can just smoke it!"

I picked up the cigarette box and looked at it, but only one cigarette was left. In order to continue the habit of having to smoke a cigarette before going to bed, I shook my head and said, "I won't smoke it now."

"If you want to smoke, just smoke. The cigarette is gone. I'll go to the convenience store downstairs to buy it for you."

"Mystery, what are you trying to do? Are you deliberately squeezing me?"

Mi Cai finally smiled and said to me: "So you can still hear that I am squeezing you? I thought you were already smoking and going crazy!"

"I'm having trouble, I feel more comfortable smoking."

Mi Cai put away her smile, as if she was influenced by my emotions, sighed softly, and after a long time, she said to me: "I know you are upset about my affairs... I am not completely refusing to cooperate with my uncle, but I have to see his sincerity... What he did during this period really disappointed me, especially last time he did not care about Zhuomei's safety and created such a public relations crisis, which hurts Zhuomei too much!"

I nodded, and was also angry at Mi Zhongde's actions, but I still restrained myself and asked Mi Cai: "What kind of sincerity does he need to show to impress you?"

Mi Cai seemed to have already thought about it, and she said to me: "If he really talks with me on the basis of family affection, not business interests, then you should be invited to the scene during negotiations, because you are a man I recognize. When we get married in the future, we will be his relatives. He needs to recognize you as his uncle."

"I was there to help you check during the negotiations, but is this a bit far-fetched? How can I recognize me become the basis for you to discuss cooperation?"

Faced with my doubts, Mi Cai did not give a positive explanation, but just said: "If he still thinks of family affection, he should respect my happiness first, so I don't think it's far-fetched."

I thought about it carefully and it seemed that it really makes sense. If Mi Zhongde really thinks about family affection, then first of all, he should recognize Mi Cai’s choice for marriage as a relative and give sincere blessings. This can indeed be a prerequisite for communication based on family affection.

......

It was already dark. When I returned to my room, I smoked the last cigarette in the cigarette box, lit it by my mouth, took a few sips, and finally felt a little smoother, because at this time, Mi Cai had at least the desire to talk about cooperation with Mi Zhongde. If she could really put aside her past grudges, take back control of Zhuomei, and gain family affection, what a lucky thing for her... So she prayed: I hope this time is not my wishful thinking!

When I smoked half a cigarette, I remembered Le Yao who had just returned to Beijing. I couldn't help but feel worried again, so I immediately called Robben to learn about the latest developments of the incident from him.

After a while, Robben answered the phone and I asked him, "How is it? Will it be smooth after returning to Beijing?"

Robben's tone was full of irritability and replied, "No, I just got off the plane and was recognized at the airport. I was first blocked by the reporters who were lying on the airport, and then by the onlookers. The scene was not much different from the war!"

“Who is the public opinion now?”

"It must be that he is more likely to be the grandson who pretends to be pitiful!... You haven't heard the questions raised by the paparazzi at the airport today, it's simply unbearable. If it weren't for the big-name agents who stopped him, I would have almost slapped him!"

Robben's description made me deeply understand Le Yao's difficult situation at this time. I think the reason why she said so badly that she prevented me from returning to Beijing with her was just that I didn't want me to be trapped in the right and wrong of the entertainment industry. After all, I still have Mi Cai's emotions to take into account...

After a little silent, I said to Robben: "You will work hard these days. At this time, the pressure on public opinion in the outside world is too great, and someone needs to be with her."

"I want to accompany her like this, but a few days ago I received a notice from the program team and would report it next week at the latest. It's already Thursday. How many days can I stay in Beijing?"

Robben's answer made me feel helpless, but I can't go to Beijing to accompany her by myself. At this time, I really hope that Le Yao also has a few heart-to-heart star friends in the entertainment industry who can accompany her to relieve some pressure, but the facts are not at all. Because malicious hype incidents have happened for several days, no celebrity in the entertainment industry is willing to say a few words to Le Yao, even if she stands up and says a few scenes, this situation is related to Le Yao's rapid rise. On the one hand, it attracts jealousy, and on the other hand, it does not have enough experience in the circle to form a group with other stars. More importantly, she is proud of herself. In the years she has been mixed up with people, she has been more or less infected with the temper of a literary youth and is disdainful to many people!

Finally, Robben suggested to me who was silent: "Look at whether she can come back to spend some time with Big Name. I can see that she is under great mental stress. She hasn't eaten until now tonight and is alone in the room and doesn't know what she is doing."

I thought about it and could only do this, and I responded to the matter.

......

After ending the conversation with Robben, I first posted on Weibo and checked some people's messages on Le Yao's Weibo. I suddenly felt angry because some people who couldn't figure out the truth, or those who were purely taking advantage of the situation, the remarks left by people who left were simply unsightly. Moreover, I turned several pages in a row, but I didn't find many remarks supporting Le Yao. I guess if Le Yao saw it, his emotions would definitely be greatly affected. Who would be willing to bear the reputation of cheating and dissatisfaction? And Le Yao is also a very well-known public figure!

At this time, I had a deep premonition: Le Yao may have ushered in the biggest crisis in her celebrity career... It was not before that there was no public image that had been severely damaged, but female stars who were hiding in the company. At the speed of renewal of the entertainment industry, once they were hiding in the air, their star path would be basically destroyed.

On the other hand, the scum who created malicious hype used Le Yao to gain attention and public sympathy, also attracted the attention of film and television companies. Entertainment news has reported in the past few days: this scum has received many invitations from film and television companies, and its star journey is bright... Sure enough, being alive is a game, and if you want to play well, it does not mean that you are so decent and kind. The most important thing is that you have to understand the rules of the game, and then use shamelessness and deception to conquer this game, without having to be nostalgic about old love...

Isn't it? Think about Le Yao, a kind woman who will cry for the orphan in the mountains, is carrying a bad reputation and her career is in danger. But the scum who was with a female producer and dumped Le Yao became the object of public sympathy... Should this be said to be public ignorance, or should this game be too shallow?
