Chapter 1126: Chapter 1126: Xu Xiyi
A person whom Xu Junfeng didn’t want to deal with but couldn’t afford not to.
At the entrance of the Film Academy, an SUV with immense space was parked, its presence dominating the roadside. Although it was a bit away from the main gate, it still became the focus of pedestrians passing by.
At this moment, in the back seat of the car, two tall men sat side by side. The one wearing a long black coat was Song Jinyan.
The man next to him wore camouflage attire with stern facial features and sharp, hawk-like eyes beneath his sword-like eyebrows. The man had a healthy wheat-colored complexion, a commanding presence, and a cold demeanor. One glance was enough to know he was the type who had been through the wringer, who had been battered by the elements and had ventured through fire and blade. His entire being screamed, ‘I’m not to be trifled with.’
With him there, Song Jinyan appeared much more refined in comparison.
And at that moment, the man was holding a poster in his hands, scrutinizing the man on it with a serious gaze. The more he looked, the deeper his frown became, and the uglier his face turned.
Finally, he furiously threw the poster away. If it hadn’t been inconvenient in the car, he would’ve surely stomped on it fiercely.
“Why throw away something good? I didn’t have it easy getting someone to buy it for me,” Song Jinyan said as he picked up the poster, glanced at it, and commented, “The shot is pretty good, nothing inappropriate shown. Didn’t you also sell your looks and surf on beaches with people when you were carrying out missions abroad?”
Now the man’s face turned even darker. Clenching his fists, it took almost all his self-control to not punch Song Jinyan right in his provoking face.
Songshan sat in the driver’s seat, struggling to hold back his laughter.
“He’s wearing makeup, and besides, what’s a grown man doing getting involved in movies? Now look, the film hasn’t even made it but he’s already been messed with,” Xu Xiyi said with an iron-blue complexion, furious after just returning from the border to be driven mad by his damn younger brother.
In the time he was away, who knows what nonsense that kid had been up to!
The Xu Family’s face had been completely lost by him.
“Hahaha… Hahaha…” Song Jinyan could no longer hold it in and burst out laughing, his smile full of pleasure, “Messed with… Xi Yi, you’re still so humorous. Ah! I found so many things displeasing while you were away, but now that you’re back, my mood has improved.”
Xu Xiyi glanced at him with a peculiar look, subtly shifting to the side. The message was crystal clear, almost as if he were saying outright, ‘Has your brain got water in it? Don’t you dare start liking me, I’m not interested in men.’
Song Jinyan’s smile faltered and he punched Xu Xiyi right then.
“You’re not up to it anymore.” Without so much as a twitch of his eyebrows, Xu Xiyi objectively evaluated, “Spending too long in the office, your reach has weakened, and your punches aren’t as powerful as before.”
“Just say I’ve aged if that’s what you mean.”
“We’re both not getting any younger.” Xu Xiyi massaged his temples in pain, “If not for the continual phone calls from my mother and telegrams from my grandmother pressuring me, I wouldn’t have come back. Old Master Xu also issued his final directive, ordering me to settle my lifelong matter by the Lunar New Year at the latest, otherwise, I’m not allowed to return to the border. Tell me, as someone who’s always abroad, should I get married only to keep my wife in widowhood at home!”
Just talking about it was annoying.
He absolutely didn’t want to come back. He had always lived amid danger over the years and had never considered finding someone to marry.
“I thought you were coming back to help me.”
“Heh!” Xu Xiyi scoffed, “You wish.”
“I may not have a big face, but I am handsome.”
Xu Xiyi: “…”
This man’s skin had certainly gotten a lot thicker than before.
“Since you didn’t want to come back, I don’t believe anyone could force you.”
