Chapter 83 The Second Call
Huo Siyan originally thought that Xu Kun asked her out alone because he liked her more than Cui Bo, but she didn't expect Xu Kun to reject her so bluntly.
Her first reaction was that Xu Kun was lying. If he really focused on his career, why would he bother with a troublemaker like Li Xiaolu? !
Huo Siyan doesn't believe that there is anything "innocent" between the two of them.
But on second thought, this actually provides a reasonable explanation for why the two of them were clearly having an affair and had known each other earlier than Li Chen, but did not become a couple.
I guess Xu Kun also said the same thing to Li Xiaolu, so the two of them ended up not being destined to be together.
But if this were really the case, wouldn't his plan to use Xu Kun to gain power be in vain?
Huo Siyan bit her lower lip lightly, her quiet and innocent little face full of depression. It would have been fine if she hadn't found a way to climb up, but she had clearly discovered a shortcut to Zhongnan, but had no way to use it, which really made her feel unwilling.
Thinking about how she had openly competed with Cui Bo for his favor and even suffered a setback in front of Cui Bo, Huo Siyan became even more unwilling to accept this.
She tossed and turned all night long and only managed to fall asleep in the second half of the night. When she woke up the next morning, she felt dizzy and had difficulty breathing, not knowing whether it was due to anger or a cold.
Because she was afraid of delaying her subsequent joining the crew, she quickly found Wu Liping, who was temporarily taking over the young actor, and wanted to ask for half a day off to go to the city to see a doctor.
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Wu Liping called out to Wu Chao who was passing by and asked him to go to the gate and stop Xu Kun.
"What a coincidence."
Wu Liping smiled and said, "It's hard to get a taxi here. Xiao Xu happened to have taken half a day off and borrowed the horse farm's van. Why don't you just ask him to give you a ride?"
Huo Siyan didn't expect this to happen.
Everyone in the crew saw her approaching Xu Kun yesterday. It would be hard for her to say now that she didn't want to take a ride with Xu Kun, right?
As for taking the initiative to disclose the fact that she was rejected by Xu Kun, that was absolutely impossible.
So we can only accept it by default.
the other side.
Xu Kun had already started the van and was about to leave the racecourse when he was stopped by Wu Chao, shouting.
When Xu Kun heard that it was Wu Liping looking for him, he thought that the crew had some urgent matter and hurried back. Only then did he realize that he was asked to take Huo Siyan back to the city to see a doctor.
Looking at Huo Siyan, who was speechless with her head down and looked even more delicate and lovely with her sick face, Xu Kun couldn't help but hesitate.
Could it be that this girl suddenly fell ill because she was rejected by me?
Did I see it wrong yesterday? Did she really approach me just because she liked me?
Just like that, the two of them each had their own thoughts, and no one took the initiative to speak in the van, and they returned to the city in silence.
While waiting for the red light at the intersection, Xu Kun finally broke the silence: "Where are you going to see a doctor?"
"I……"
Huo Siyan tilted her head to look out the window and was about to give an address when she heard Xu Kun's cell phone ring.
She subconsciously stopped talking, but saw Xu Kun took out his cell phone, glanced at it, and then decisively chose to reject the call.
If it weren't for the previous unexpected discovery, Huo Siyan would definitely not have thought too much about it, but at this time she couldn't help but secretly wonder who called Xu Kun.
For some reason, he didn't want himself to hear the conversation.
Xu Kun put down the phone, shifted gears and started the car, while repeating the question he had just asked.
Huo Siyan finally told the full address. About half an hour later.
Seeing Huo Siyan hooked up to an IV bottle in a small clinic, Xu Kun took out his cell phone and walked out, saying, "I'll make a call - by the way, do you want to notify your family or friends?"
"I'll make the call myself if I need anything."
Huo Siyan replied in a sickly voice, but when Xu Kun walked out of the door holding the phone, she immediately turned over and got out of bed, holding the infusion bottle and tiptoed to the door.
The middle-aged female doctor who was attending the consultation saw this scene and didn't know what she was thinking. She shook her head and sighed: "Young couples nowadays really don't have even a little trust in each other..."
Huo Siyan was not worried that the female doctor would expose her actions. After all, she was a familiar customer here, while Xu Kun was just a stranger.
She listened through the door curtain and heard Xu Kun ask, "You want me to play the leading actor? What drama is it? Is there going to be a sequel to "The Passionate Years"? What does that mean? Sun Haiying won't play Shi Guangrong anymore?"
Huo Siyan's heart moved. She didn't expect to get the news about "Burning 2" from Xu Kun.
The ratings of "The Ignition 1" may not be as high as those popular costume dramas that are hilarious and full of laughter, but its national recognition is much stronger than that of ordinary costume dramas.
The Beijing TV station rebroadcast the show six times last year and four times this year, and Sun Haiying went from being an unknown to becoming a hot star overnight.
"Bullshit!"
At this time, Xu Kun suddenly raised his voice outside: "Let me play Sun Haiying's son?! Bah, is he worthy of it?! What's the point of playing the leading actor or not? Whoever wants to play it can play it, but I won't play it anyway!"
Huo Siyan inside the door opened her eyes wide, she couldn't believe her ears.
That’s “The Passionate Years 2”!
With the huge fame of the previous work, even if the results are not as expected, it will definitely surpass most TV dramas - for example, "Sister Bao 2", although its reputation is not as good as before, its ratings are still crushing a number of new dramas, otherwise it would not have triggered the dispute between the two ice dramas.
Despite such a good opportunity in front of him, Xu Kun rejected it without hesitation, and even openly looked down on the popular Sun Haiying.
Is this the confidence that comes from having the support of a big boss in the circle?
Xu Kun continued to be stubborn: "Of course I know you are doing this for my own good, but if I agree, what kind of person would I be? Don't try to persuade me, there is no such thing... Well, let's talk about it when we meet."
Feeling that Xu Kun was about to hang up the phone, Huo Siyan hurriedly returned to the hospital bed with the IV bottle.
Not long after, Xu Kun pushed the door open and said to Huo Siyan, "I still have some personal matters to attend to. How about this, I'll go do my business first, and we can contact each other again at noon?"
Huo Siyan suppressed the pounding of her heart and nodded as if nothing had happened.
But the attitude of the middle-aged female doctor opposite was not very friendly. The look she gave Xu Kun clearly showed the word "scumbag".
Xu Kun felt uncomfortable being stared at, and also felt that as the "culprit", it would be inappropriate for him to just leave like that, so he went to buy some fruits and put them at the head of Huo Siyan's bed before saying goodbye and leaving.
After Xu Kun left, Huo Siyan couldn't help but have a lot of thoughts.
Xu Kun didn't want "The Burning 2" even when it was right in front of her, but she was extremely greedy for it.
If I can get the leading role in "The Burning 2"...
But Xu Kun had made it clear that he didn't want to be in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship with me. Without this layer of hypocritical relationship, why should I ask him to help me get the role?
unless……
The image of Li Xiaolu, whose bones and muscles were weak, suddenly flashed through Huo Siyan's mind. She bit her lower lip tightly, her delicate crescent eyebrows were almost twisted into a straight line, and her quiet and delicate face was full of struggle.
