The Villain Just Wants to be a Salted Fish

He Jinyun: "When will you leave tomorrow?"

Perhaps because the two had gradually become familiar, the tone of He Jinyun and Ye Zexi's chat had become more familiar.

But He Jinyun still didn't talk to Ye Zexi about Chen Zhengtian's request.

After all, according to He Jinyun's understanding of Ye Zexi, Ye Zexi would forget about these things after reading them, and would not take them seriously at all.

Chen Zhengtian's worries were completely unnecessary.

However, explaining to Chen Zhengtian took too much effort, and He Jinyun would not want to waste his time to explain to the old man.

Ye Zexi's message came back quickly: "My flight is at 8 o'clock in the morning, when's Teacher He's flight?"

He Jinyun raised his brows and said: "Is it this flight?"

Ye Zexi: "Yeah, it seems so."

He Jinyun: "It seems that we are on the same flight."

"It's a coincidence!" Ye Zexi said, "At that time we can just sit together."

He Jinyun naturally did not refuse.

The two had agreed to meet at the airport, and Ye Zexi exited the chat interface and clicked on the chat box with Tang Jing.

The message from Tang Jing was more polite: "Zexi, are you busy now?"

Ye Zexi replied, "Not busy, what's the matter?"

After waiting for two seconds, Tang Jing never responded. Ye Zexi put down the phone and was about to click on the video, but just one second after he put down the phone, the phone rang again.

Ye Zexi picked up the phone and clicked on the message.

Tang Jing: "#picture#"

Ye Zexi took a closer look and found that Tang Jing had sent a photo of the contract with the word "Foodie Journal" on it, which was very conspicuous.

Ye Zexi was taken aback for a moment, and then quickly understood: "Are you going to film "Foodie Journal" too?"

Looking at the message sent by Ye Zexi on the phone, Tang Jing could imagine Ye Zexi's surprised expression. The corners of his mouth were bent and he typed a reply: "Yes, I will be the special guest in the next recording."

Ye Zexi really did not expect this, and expressed his surprise: "I really didn't expect you to be the special guest in this recording. The director team did a good job at keeping secrets!" At the same time, Ye Zexi was also a little curious, "Do you know who the other special guest is?"

This Tang Jing really did not know: "I don't know."

After replying, Tang Jing couldn't hold back the corner of his mouth and smiled.

Thinking about it carefully, he hadn't seen Ye Zexi for several months, and he would meet the other tomorrow. Tang Jing was looking forward to it, and suddenly there was an indescribable nervousness.

As for the previous statement he had made to his agent, Tang Jing had already forgotten them all at this moment.

"Are you flying out from the capital tomorrow?" Tang Jing asked again.

Ye Zexi: "Yes, Teacher He and I will be boarding the plane at 8 o'clock in the morning, how about you?"

Looking at the words "Teacher He" on the phone screen, Tang Jing felt like a cold wind was blowing in his heart, and his good mood got wiped out in an instant.

After a long silence, Tang Jing typed a message, "I'm flying out from Hengdian." After a pause, he pretended to ask casually, "Are you leaving with Teacher He?"

Ye Zexi replied: "Yes, Teacher He just sent me a message asking about the flight. We only found out that we will be on the same flight just now."

Ye Zexi: "Then call me when you're there, we haven't seen each other for a long time, I'll treat you to a meal!"

It turned out that it was not a special arrangement to board the flight together.

Thinking of this, Tang Jing felt a little more comfortable, and when he saw what Ye Zexi just typed, the corners of Tang Jing's mouth that had been pressed down slowly rose again: "Okay, I will contact you then."

Ye Zexi: "Okay."

After replying to Tang Jing's message, Ye Zexi stretched out his hand and played the anime again, and his beautiful eyebrows gradually frowned.

Tang Jing unexpectedly participated in the same program with Teacher He again. This was something Ye Zexi did not expect.

But soon he realized that Tang Jing is the protagonist in the novel, and there are many scenes where Tang Jing and He Jinyun interact with each other in the original plot. Tang Jing often participates in shows with He Jinyun, which is also a matter of course.1

If he hadn't transmigrated here, maybe Tang Jing and He Jinyun would have been together long ago.

But now, Tang Jing seemed to have no attraction towards He Jinyun at all.

Otherwise, how should he explain it? Tang Jing did not know when He Jinyun would leave, and he had to ask him?

Earlier, Ye Zexi had discovered that the plot line of the novel had deviated a bit, and now he was more certain.

The only thing that was still uncertain---He Jinyun's feelings.

If He Jinyun also had no attraction to Tang Jing, then his CP was a bit too miserable!

Thinking of this, Ye Zexi couldn't sit still. He picked up the phone and sent a message to He Jinyun: "Teacher He, do you know about this?"

A trace of doubt crossed He Jinyun's eyes.

A question mark was slowly typed in the input field.

"What do I know?"

In the next second, Ye Zexi's message came: "Tang Jing is one of our special guests in this recording!"

After sending the message, Ye Zexi took a breath. He couldn't help but look forward to what He Jinyun would say.

Is he happy or just indifferent?

Seeing Tang Jing's name, He Jinyun frowned slightly, and quickly let go. His expression was as usual, not as happy as Ye Zexi expected.

"How did you know?"

Ye Zexi stared at the message on the phone, frowning.

Hey, why did Teacher He reply such a few words? In this way, he can't see his true thoughts!

Ye Zexi: "Just now Tang Jing sent me a message, but he doesn't know about the other special guest."

He Jinyun replied: "Okay, I see. I'll have to go now, see you tomorrow."

Huh?

That's it?

Ye Zexi was dumbfounded.

Wouldn't He Jinyun ask more questions?

Or was he really shipping the wrong CP?

Ye Zexi fell into deep self-doubt.

After a long while, he replied with difficulty to He Jinyun's message: "See you tomorrow."

After closing the chat, He Jinyun stood there thinking for two seconds before he picked up the phone and sent a message to the agent.

Returning to the office, his colleague was waiting for him, and when he saw He Jinyun coming in, he quickly took out the plan he had prepared early in the morning.

After some discussion, the final change was decided.

The editing continued.

He did not know how long it had passed until He Jinyun picked up the vibrating phone. The agent had already sent a lot of messages.

"Tang Jing?"

"Why are you asking about him?"

"Okay, wait a minute, I'll ask around."

"I got it now, during the filming of "Famous General", he was the one who contacted the company executive for the role. Maybe that was why the executive called you then. I just inquired about the "Foodie Journal". Director Zhang said it was Tang Jing's agent that contacted him, also self-recommended."

"You must know that Tang Jing and Ye Zexi are the headlines when they are put together, also "Foodie Journal" requires some special guests, so Director Zhang agreed without hesitation."

"But I still don't understand, why are you asking?"

After reading all the messages, He Jinyun's frowning eyebrows never loosened.

Isn't it just my illusion?

The slender fingertips tapped twice on the screen, and the corners of He Jinyun's mouth tightened, his ink eyes darkened a bit, as if he was thinking.

After a while, He Jinyun picked up the phone and replied to the agent: "It's nothing, I'm just a little curious."

"Tang Jing is a newcomer who signed up with the company just two years ago, right?"

The message from the agent came back immediately: "Yes, basically all the resources for newcomers in Starlight are being directed to Tang Jing as priority. But this has nothing to do with you? Is it possible that you are—"

"Don't think too much." He Jinyun replied, "I just think that the company's schedule for him is still not full."

Agent: "Huh? What the hell?"

He Jinyun had already turned off his phone and did not reply any more.

Thinking of Ye Zexi who was staring at him, who just wanted to eat fish, He Jinyun pressed his slightly swollen temples.

The boy is really popular.

However, Ye Zexi cannot be blamed for this.

Who makes him quite likable.

Thinking of this, He Jinyun's frowning eyebrows slowly loosened, and a faint smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.

Early the next morning, Gao Shu came to Ye Zexi's house to pick him up.

It was rare to see Ye Zexi to be so energetic. As soon as he arrived at the airport, Ye Zexi went straight to the VIP lounge.

Just as he was looking around to find He Jinyun, behind him came a man's familiar and full-magnetic voice: "Looking for me?"

Ye Zexi turned around, and it was He Jinyun who came here.

With a smile, Ye Zexi nodded: "Yeah, who else am I looking for if it's not Teacher He?"

He Jinyun's smile deepened, and he lowered his mask slightly: "Have you had breakfast?"

Ye Zexi shook his head.

"I know there is a good breakfast place, so I will ask Yu Ye to buy some." He Jinyun said.

"Okay." Ye Zexi and He Jinyun were also familiar with each other, and they had long since stopped being formal with each other.

Yu Ye quickly bought breakfast. Ye Zexi took a bite of the shrimp dumplings and his eyes lit up.

It's delicious!

He Jinyun looked at Ye Zexi's bright eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled up. The tiredness of recent days seemed to have disappeared at this moment.

"Eat slowly." He Jinyun handed Ye Zexi a cup of soy milk.

Ye Zexi took it gracefully, he took a sip, and said with emotion: "It's so delicious!"

He Jinyun was taken aback for a moment, and then he showed a helpless smile: "Then eat slowly, no one will steal it from you."

Ye Zexi nodded, but his speed of eating still did not slow down.

He Jinyun simply let him be.

When the two of them finished their breakfast, it was almost time for boarding.

He Jinyun took the lead to get up: "Let's go."

"Alright." Ye Zexi also stood up.

Before he could take two steps, He Jinyun reminded him: "Wear a mask."

Ye Zexi realized that he had taken off his mask to eat. He responded, "I almost forgot."

After speaking, Ye Zexi put on a mask before he followed He Jinyun.

He Jinyun was a little helpless: "How can you forget wearing a mask?"

Ye Zexi said blatantly: "It's okay, isn't it just being photographed? I can get a wave of hot searches for free if I am being photographed with Teacher He."

He Jinyun was amused by his fallacies, and shook his head without saying anything.

Gao Shu and Yu Ye who followed behind also laughed, but none of them took it seriously.

After all, it was normal for popular artists being photographed at the airport. Sometimes even if the artist was fully armed, it was inevitable to be recognized by sharp-eyed reporters.

After that, everyone was familiar with the process, usually it would give the artists a few small hot searches, not serious damages had yet to be done anyway.

But what no one had expected was that Ye Zexi was right. But this time being photographed was not just as simple as a small hot search.

Three hours after the plane landed, the most popular search---#Ye Zexi and He Jinyun sweet interaction at the airport#, followed by a red "explosive" character.
