The competition was still going on, and Mo Xi was the second to last one to appear. As expected, Huang Zijie was eliminated on the spot, and Mo Xi was praised by the three judges on the field.
Everyone in the observation room was impressed by the superb acting skills of this little girl who had not yet debuted, and once again felt the threat from the younger generation.
"Okay, you two girls have given us a lot of pressure. You are worthy of being outstanding students at the film school."
Those veteran actors did not hesitate to give their praises, and some even took the initiative to exchange contact information and WeChat messages. Of course, Xiao Siluo and Mo Xi were willing to accept everyone who came. The reason why they participated in this variety show this time was firstly for
Let everyone see their acting skills, isn't it just to expand their network of contacts?
It was another long recording session, and when Xiao Siluo and Mo Xi came out of the recording site, Kyoto city was dark again.
"Mo Xi, how do you go back?"
Xiao Siluo saw his car not far away and asked Mo Xi.
Mo Xi pointed at a low-profile SUV across the road not far away and said.
"Your brother came to pick me up."
Xiao Siluo looked in the direction and smiled slightly.
"My brother is really considerate, so I'll leave first. See you in Luo City during the Chinese New Year, sister-in-law."
After saying that, Xiao Siluo walked to her car. Lei Yan opened the door for her. Just as Xiao Siluo was about to get in the car, she saw the man sitting in the back seat and was stunned.
"How did you come?"
Who else could be there besides Feng Beichen? Xiao Siluo didn't expect that Feng Beichen would come to pick her up. To be honest, she was a little envious when she just found out that Xiao Yiheng came to pick up Mo Xi.
Feng Beichen smiled slightly and said something instead of answering immediately.
"You might be photographed by reporters if you don't close the door."
As soon as he said this, Xiao Siluo immediately got into the car, closed the door as quickly as possible, and then gave Feng Beichen a big hug regardless of whether Lei Yan was present.
"Why are you here? Didn't you say that the company has a video conference today and you will go home very late? Are you lying to me?"
Xiao Siluo pouted and asked.
Feng Beichen hugged Xiao Siluo and explained.
"The meeting ended early, so I asked Lei Yan to pick me up and wait for you. How was your recording today? Did you advance?"
Hearing Feng Beichen's question, Xiao Siluo glared at him, broke away from Feng Beichen's arms, and said coquettishly with his hands on his waist.
"Mr. Feng, do you not believe in my acting skills so much? You asked me if I have been promoted. With my strength, as long as there is no shady story, I can still advance in the first game."
"Okay, okay, I made a mistake. Aren't I afraid that the judges in the audience will be blinded? Our little Dai has superb acting skills. It would be unforgivable if he doesn't advance."
Who doesn't know how to say nice things, especially after spending a long time with Xiao Siluo, Feng Beichen has these sweet words at his fingertips.
"Oh, by the way, have everything in the company been arranged? Tomorrow we will go back to Los Angeles directly after going to Aogang. The next time we return to Kyoto will be the Chinese New Year. Are you sure there is no problem in the company?"
"Don't worry, Ji Jinyan was basically handling the company's affairs in the past. I have helped him reduce a lot of work in the past few months."
Feng Beichen said boldly, well, as the president, he basically doesn't interfere with the company's affairs. Rather than saying that Ji Jinyan is the assistant to the president, it would be better to say that Ji Jinyan sits in the position of an assistant and bears the responsibilities of the president.
For all the companies under Feng Beichen's name, he only controls the general direction, and several assistants are responsible for arranging specific matters. Therefore, in comparison, he is much more relaxed as the president than the presidents of other companies.
"By the way, Lei Yan, after tomorrow's award ceremony at Ao Port, will you go back to Kyoto or do you have other arrangements?"
When the car was about to arrive at Jinxi Garden, Feng Beichen looked at Lei Yan who was driving in front and asked.
"I'm going to stay on the island for a few days. Last time I came to Kyoto directly from Africa and I haven't seen my little sister for more than two months."
After hearing Lei Yan's arrangement, Feng Beichen nodded and replied.
"Well, I'll give you a week. I'll see you in Kyoto then."
"Thank you, Brother Feng."
Lei Yan said, Feng Beichen frowned slightly.
"Okay, there are no outsiders here, don't be so polite."
Xiao Siluo on the side suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a little heavy. She clearly noticed that Lei Yan's body was a little tense when he went to see his little sister. Xiao Siluo was full of curiosity. She had never heard that Lei Yan had a sister.
Just when Xiao Siluo was curious and wanted to speak, Feng Beichen squeezed her hand. Xiao Siluo immediately became quiet, and then looked at Feng Beichen with a puzzled look.
Feng Beichen gave her a don't ask anything question look, then gently held Xiao Siluo in his arms, kissed her on the forehead, and said softly.
"Whatever you want to eat tonight, I'll make it for you."
Xiao Siluo understood that Feng Beichen wanted to change the subject, so he obeyed him and said casually.
"Just be light. After all, I have to wear a dress tomorrow."
While they were talking, the car stopped outside the door of Villa No. 8 in Jinxi Garden. Feng Beichen pushed the door open and got out of the car, then opened the door for Xiao Siluo.
Lei Yan did not stay, said good night to them, and left Jinxi Garden.
Uncharacteristically, Feng Beichen stood at the door and waited for Lei Yan's car to disappear under the night, then took Xiao Siluo's hand and walked into the villa.
"Beichen, Lei Yan has a sister. Why haven't I heard from you before? Besides, I think he was in a bad state when he mentioned his sister."
"It's my fault that you are so curious. You shouldn't have asked at the car. Let's go inside first."
Feng Beichen did not answer immediately, but pulled Xiao Siluo into the villa.
Xiao Siluo became even more curious when he saw Feng Beichen avoiding the important and taking the easy. He thought, is there anything hard to say? After thinking about it, Xiao Siluo said something.
"Beichen, if you don't think it's convenient to say it, then don't say it. I'm just a little curious."
"Okay, I guess you won't be able to sleep well tonight if I don't tell you anything. In fact, there's nothing bad to say. Lei Yan does have a sister who is ten years younger than him, but something happened to his sister when she was very young.
, turned into a vegetative state. She has been sleeping on a private island for these years. This sister is Lei Yan’s only relative in the world. He cherishes this sister very much. We all hope that his sister can wake up one day, so that Lei Yan can also wake up.
I don’t know how lonely I have always been.”
Xiao Siluo thought this would be a warm story, but he didn't expect it to be a sad story. Hearing this, Xiao Siluo's heart ached.
When he thought of Lei Yan, who was always taciturn, with a preoccupied, deep and mysterious look, Xiao Siluo originally thought that this was just Lei Yan's character, but now it seems that there is a wound deep in his heart that cannot be healed.
"What about his other family members and his parents? Are they all gone?"
Xiao Siluo asked softly, Feng Beichen nodded and sighed.
"Overnight, twenty-six members of the Lei family were all killed by their enemies. Lei Yan happened to be taking his sister out to play that night and escaped the murder. However, they were still hunted by their enemies later and his sister was shot.
One shot, and although he lived later, he never woke up again."
Hearing this, Xiao Siluo was shocked. Now is the peaceful era. In China, private possession of guns is illegal, and the public security in China has always been very good. So when Xiao Siluo hears this, there is always a feeling.
An unreal feeling like listening to a story.
Feng Beichen saw Xiao Siluo's surprised expression, hugged her in his arms, and comforted her gently.
"Are you scared?"
Xiao Siluo couldn't hide his head and nodded. She was indeed frightened. She couldn't imagine that such a thing would happen in today's peaceful era. Twenty-six people were killed overnight. If this happened in China,
, definitely a shocking case.
"Beichen, is there such a thing in today's society? I always thought that this kind of thing only existed in TV dramas."
"Yes, this kind of thing is absolutely impossible to happen in your country, but it cannot be completely avoided in other countries. Think about it, there are still many countries experiencing war. Compared with what happened to Lei Yan,
It’s not bigger, but do those countries have the ability to stop it? In fact, the world is not completely peaceful.”
Xiao Siluo all knows that there are still many countries involved in the tragedy of civil war, and China will also film a large number of peacekeeping troops going to these places to participate in peacekeeping operations every year, but after all, these are just in the news, Xiao Siluo always feels
It was still far away from her, but what happened to Lei Yan made her feel a little afraid.
"Who are those people? Have all those enemies been caught? Such a tragedy and people who don't take human life seriously should receive the harshest sanctions."
Hearing Xiao Siluo's angry voice, Feng Beichen sighed inwardly. After all, she was a young lady living in a peaceful country. Xiao Siluo would never know the darkness of those countries.
Being sanctioned by the law, this may be a very normal thing in China, but in many countries, it is simply a joke, and it is good enough if there is no collusion between officials and gangsters.
"Lei Yan has already taken revenge, so those who participated in the Lei family's extermination are no longer in this world."
Feng Beichen said vaguely that he didn't want Xiao Siluo to know the cruel truth behind this incident, and he didn't want Xiao Siluo to have any fears or thoughts about them.
After saying that, Feng Beichen touched Xiao Siluo's head and said softly.
"You go upstairs and change your clothes, and I'll make dinner."
After saying that, Feng Beichen walked towards the kitchen. Xiao Siluo still had many questions, but after seeing Feng Beichen leave, he gave up the idea. After all, it was Lei Yan's private matter and she couldn't ask any more questions.
Feng Beichen let out a long sigh of relief after walking to the kitchen. He was really afraid that Xiao Siluo would get to the bottom of it, because it was an unspeakable experience.
It is true that those who participated in the annihilation of the Lei family are no longer in this world, but no one knows about the disappearance of these people.
After being rescued by Feng Beichen, Lei Yan, in addition to being responsible for the affairs of the Overseas Chinese Association's secret hall, spent the rest of his time hunting down the murderers. He swore to kill those people with his own hands.
It took Lei Yan five years to travel almost all over the world. On Christmas Eve two years ago, he finally solved his last enemy. The deaths of these people were all caused by accidents by Lei Yan, leaving no suspicious clues.
Apart from Lei Yan himself, Feng Beichen and Valu were the only two people in the world who knew about this matter. Even Ouyang Jie and Ye Xiao did not fully understand this matter.
And this matter will become a secret between the three of them, and no one will tell it, because only by burying this matter in their stomachs will everything be calm.
Xiao Siluo never asked about Lei Yan again, nor did she inquire about his sister. She respected that everyone had their own secrets, and she didn't want to expose the scars in Lei Yan's heart.
