Chapter 45 Market Economy Lv Liping has been anxious and angry these days, and Li Xiaolu is also upset. When she dragged Xu Kun to get a room, it was a rebellious act under impulse, without any real feelings at all. But isn't there a saying that goes "love grows over time"? The wildness of Xu Kun was already to Li Xiaolu's liking, not to mention the freshness and excitement on the top of the tower. This made her feel that it would be nice to continue with Xu Kun. But the problem is that the two of them had agreed early on that once they left the crew they would pretend nothing had happened. Li Xiaolu had already "modified" the agreement once without permission. If she were to go and ask Xu Kun to renew the contract again, it would be too embarrassing for her, Miss Li. So when she sang Houtinghua last time, she gave hints several times, hoping that Xu Kun would take the initiative to break the deadlock, but all the results were like a drop in the ocean, and she didn't get any feedback at all. Afterwards, Xu Kun threw himself fully into the filming, as if he couldn't wait to finish and leave. Li Xiaolu also got angry now. I won the Golden Horse Film Award at the age of 17. Why are you so arrogant when you are just a minor actress? At worst, we can just break up. I don’t believe that with my beauty, I can’t find a better man than you! Li Xiaolu's confidence is not blind. Apart from anything else, Li Chen, who is pursuing her hard, is much more handsome and famous than Xu Kun. Just a little less manly than Xu Kun. This emotion caused Li Xiaolu and Xu Kun to have a cold war for a few days. It was not until Xu Kun was about to finish filming and leave the crew that she began to feel reluctant to leave.
Although this bastard is blind to the value of gold and jade, the water tower is always innocent. So that evening, at Li Xiaolu's initiative suggestion, the two left the crew one after the other and went back to the old place in their own way. After they met under the tower, Li Xiaolu stared at Xu Kun with a look of love and hate, and after a while she spat fiercely, "Bah, you stinky hooligan!" This time, there was no second half of the sentence, and there was no outburst of laughter as at that time. Xu Kun said seriously: "On January 1 this year, our country officially joined the WTO, and we have to talk about market economy from now on." "What do you mean?" Li Xiaolu felt that this statement was totally irrelevant. What did the matter between the two of them have to do with the WTO and the market economy? But Xu Kun said seriously: "Haven't you heard people say that the spirit of contract is the cornerstone of the market economy, and abiding by treaties is the basic principle of international law..." "You big-headed ghost!" Li Xiaolu suddenly realized that the bastard was waiting for her here. She rushed up angrily and started punching and kicking Xu Kun. "No, no, no!" Xu Kun dodged while advising, "Be careful not to be seen by others. It will affect your image as the Golden Horse Film Queen. Besides, if you don't hold back some strength, later..." "I'll teach you a lesson later!" No matter how angry you are, you still have to have a breakup ceremony, and you can't lose in momentum. So the two of them went into the water tower one after the other. Behind a big tree in the distance, Lv Liping saw this scene from the shadows and couldn't help but sneer. She had already deduced from clues that the two were meeting secretly outside, but she never expected it to be in a place like this. They weren't afraid of being caught! But this would help her collect evidence. Lv Liping waited patiently for about five minutes, and thought that the two of them should be fully committed to it, so she tiptoed to the water tower. She turned on the recording function of her Walkman and quietly approached the entrance of the water tower. However, apart from the humming sound of the water pump, there was no other sound inside. Could it be that……
Lu Liping gritted her teeth, stuck her head in and looked inside, only to find that it was indeed empty, with no sign of Xu Kun and Li Xiaolu at all. So her eyes turned to the steel ladder. Is it necessary for two unmarried young people to go to such great lengths to meet in secret? Aren't they afraid of falling? ! Lv Liping had no idea what was going on. If Sun Haiying asked her to climb up and do something like that, she would definitely think that Sun Haiying was crazy. Then Lv Liping got stuck in a dilemma. Do you want to risk climbing up to collect evidence? Although she thought rationally that she shouldn't continue taking risks, Xu Kun would be leaving the day after tomorrow at the latest. If she missed this opportunity, it would be difficult for her to find any evidence against Li Xiaolu. After hesitating for a long time, thinking about how that crazy girl had stabbed her lungs several times, she felt uneasy and could not sleep or eat until she had avenged her. So Lv Liping gritted her teeth and began to climb up carefully in the dark. After climbing to the top of the tower, there is a small door leading to the outside. After exiting the door, you need to climb up along the outer wall for more than two meters to reach the top of the tower. Lv Liping held the railings on both sides and looked out. She found that most of the film and television base was in her sight, but it was pitch black below, like a bottomless abyss, which was really frightening. But Lv Liping gritted her teeth and climbed up the outer ladder. Most of the actors who were able to make it in the 1980s, 1990s and 2000s were not lacking in this ruthlessness. In fact, the ladder on the outside is safer than that inside the tower because it has a semicircular protective railing. The worst that can happen is that you fall onto the floating platform but not fall from the top of the tower. When Lv Liping was halfway up the climb, she already heard the shameless noise coming from the top of the tower. She secretly estimated the distance, then quietly poked her head out of the battlements of the parapet. The top of the tower was about three meters in diameter, with a small night light in the middle, a sleeping bag and two blankets on the ground. Seven or eight pieces of clothes of men and women were piled up in a mess on the blanket, but Xu Kun and Li Xiaolu were not on the blanket. Instead, they were stacked on the battlement on the other side. With the help of the fluorescent light emitted by the night light, seeing that the two people were venting their instincts unscrupulously, Lv Liping spat inwardly and secretly placed the Walkman on the battlement next door. The hum of the water pump can still be heard on the top of the tower. Although it is much smaller than inside the tower, it is enough to cover the sound of the Walkman recording. Then she prepared to leave quietly and come back to collect them after Xu Kun and Li Xiaolu were done. But before leaving, Lv Liping for some unknown reason took another look at the couple, and that look lasted for seven or eight minutes. It was not until Li Xiaolu cried out that she could not bear it any longer that Lv Liping began to climb down in a panic. Although her heart was pounding, she eventually returned to the ground safely. When she stepped out of the water tower, Lv Liping felt both of her feet were weak. Hiding behind the big tree, she waited for more than 50 minutes before she saw two people sneaking out of the water tower. It will take at least an hour and a half all together. This is too... They should be pouring their hearts out to each other at the top of the tower, after all, they are about to break up. Thinking of this, Lv Liping did not risk climbing up immediately - there was still some light before, but now it was completely dark. Instead of risking climbing up to retrieve the Walkman, it would be better to wait until tomorrow morning and act calmly. So after the two of them left, she returned to Wangzuo Town alone. Li Xiaolu came back earlier than her, but because she went to take a shower, she returned to the dormitory later than her.
Seeing that Li Xiaolu's legs were so soft, as if she was stepping on cotton, Lv Liping did not feel contempt for her this time. Instead, she felt a little envious and even jealous. After witnessing the scene on the top of the tower, Lv Liping thought back to what Li Xiaolu said that day. It seemed that she was not just trying to anger her on purpose, but was more of a talk based on "experience". But even so, Lv Liping did not give up her original plan. The next morning, she got up early to retrieve the Walkman, and then began to "repeatedly verify" the collected evidence. (End of this chapter)
