Be a Movie Star in a Two-dimensional World

Arturia searched for the key from her bag, although she had been away from here for so long, only the key was always with her.

Obviously not necessary.

Artoria thought so, but inserted the key into the lock and opened the door.

The door was pushed open in response, and it was not as dusty and cobweb-strewn as imagined. This was due to the fact that Artoria had been hiring people to clean it regularly.The other party seemed to be working hard and was not lazy because the owner never came back to check. Of course, one of the reasons was that the money was in place.

Because of this, the state of the house has not changed much from when Artoria moved out. After the water and electricity were connected, Artoria wiped the wall of the entrance, and the whole room became brighter.

Along with the widening field of vision as the light gradually expands, there is also that sense of familiarity.

For example, the landscape paintings displayed on the wall are the fields and castles of Arturia's mother's hometown, and the shoe cabinet placed next to the corner has a long scratch mark scratched by cats, while the floor mat Below, there is a mark left by water seepage in the past. These deep impressions are all overlapped with the reality one by one - giving her a sudden illusion of traveling through time and space.

And speaking of illusions.

I don't know if it's the magic of the light, but for a moment, she seemed to see the familiar figure sitting on the long table in the living room from the entrance, busy typing on the calculator, writing and scribbling on the notes, but was caught by the dazzling light. After the lights dazzled, the room returned to an empty calm.

Arturia stood for a while in the direction where the welcome disappeared, then raised her foot and walked up the stairs to the second floor.

There are three bedrooms in the house, except for the smallest one which is used as a storage room, which are the rooms of Arturia and mother.

She smoothly opened the first room near the corridor.

That was her own room in the past, and there were many things she had used piled up in the room.The big bed, wardrobe, and desk were neatly arranged. When she resolutely decided to leave home, she didn't intend to take these with her. Now that she came back here, she couldn't help but feel sad when she saw these objects that involved memories.

She walked into the room, gently touched those things that were always in memory and gradually forgotten by strangers with her fingers, and retreated from the room before the sadness emerged.

She didn't waste any more time in the storage room, so she went straight to her mother's room.

Compared with the room she lived in, the size of the mother's room was similar, but there was an extra bathroom and balcony.

After her mother passed away, Arturia, her belongings, had hardly been touched.She had a sudden illness and left, so naturally she didn't leave a will or anything like that. All Arturia can do is keep the house as it is as much as possible, and let the person who comes to clean it only be responsible for the surface, not to clean the cabinet Clothes in or organize things inside.

She turns on the light.

The white walls and soft lighting give people a clean and tidy feeling.

Although it is a bit strange to say this ten years later, the orderly arrangement and tidying up of this place reflects the personality of the owner.In Artoria's impression, her mother has always been good at managing complicated things in an orderly manner, so her things, you can't see the slightest mess, are always carefully planned, giving people a kind of just right comfort sense.

Arturia walked to the desk, and her gaze stayed on the group photo placed in the middle of the desk. The young Artoria was nestled in her mother's arms. She and her mother were hugging each other. It was the first trophy he won on stage, with tears in his eyes but a smile on his face.

She picked up the photo frame and looked at it for a while, then put it down.

Mother……

I have won many trophies now.

The corners of his mouth were bent like this, but he squeezed it tightly.

With the help of the light, she began to browse other things in the room. Everything here basically remained the same as when she left home, except that, in her sight, there was an extra black cover. notebook.

After Arturia noticed it, she quickly put the things in her hand back to the distance, and walked straight towards the notebook.

After all, after so many years, she is not very sure.

Although it was placed in the mother's room, it is also possible that those responsible for cleaning left it here, and this possibility cannot be ruled out. However, when she saw her mother's familiar handwriting on the title page, she immediately realized that it belonged to her mother. .

She flipped through it casually, but found that she couldn't open the pages inside because there was a simple combination lock on it.

what is this?

Because my mother manages her various affairs, she has the habit of recording various things. It is not surprising that such handbooks are similar, but most of them are not confidential. When Arturia was sorting out her mother's relics , I also found quite a few, and either handed them over to his successor, Xiao Chen, or packed them up and sealed them up. Without exception, none of those notebooks had locks.

This makes this notebook a bit different.

What exactly is recorded here?

Mother has passed away, can she just open it like this?

The reason why she locked it was because she didn't want people to see the contents inside.

Arturia hesitated for a moment.

"..."

But when she turned the diary and glanced at the sentence written on the title page, she began to fiddle with the numbers with locks on the notebook.

It reads: [Diary of a mother]

The notebook is sealed with a simple four-digit combination lock.

Even if you don't know the password, you only need to enter 10000 times to unlock it by brute force cracking. However, Arturia first recalled her mother's birthday.

error.

She tried her own birthday again.

The password lock was thus unlocked.

Chapter 252 Diary

Arturia flipped through the contents of the diary in her hand.

This diary started when they came to Qiunan, or a little later, anyway, the first few pages started when they had already lived in a rented house, and their mother had already found a job as a tabloid reporter started.

The original intention of keeping this diary is related to Artoria... You say it has something to do with it, then there is, but it is not a decisive factor. It is simply a history of a high-minded woman who does not admit defeat, leading her daughter to work hard in a strange environment .

I write this to motivate myself, don't give up even if it is difficult now, life will get better little by little.

Because these contents are written for the mother herself, the content is more optimistic, and some words that the strong and stubborn mother would not say to others are also written. When Artoria reads these, for the mother, there is more New understanding.

[The pig in the department tried every means to eat my tofu again today, knowing that I am single with a daughter and hinting at my unspoken rules, is my mother's tofu so easy to eat?The disgusting things he said, together with the photos he took of flirting with his subordinates, were sent to his wife, and there will be a good show tomorrow. 】

[Recently, I found a part-time job as a side job, and the financial aspect is a little better. Liya is very sensible and has never complained, but if possible, I still hope that she can get a better life.Come on mom! 】

【Take Liya to the acting class today.Originally, I just went to visit because of work, but I tried it. Even the teacher said that Leah is very talented in this area.What should I do? To be honest, I am a little happy. Should I seriously let her try this? 】

These contents are not so much a diary as some essays recording life.

And the content is not written every day. For example, my mother seldom writes about her work, what she did today, what she did tomorrow, and where she went on a business trip the day after tomorrow.Usually it's about writing something meaningful, even if it's just a few words.And this focus, as time went by, gradually shifted from mother herself to Artoria.

The more she looked down, the more surprised Artoria felt.

The diary revealed to her a very different mother than she remembered.

"What does Leah want to do in the future?"

"Become an actor, like my mother."

Even though it might just be a child's innocent answer, like other people's wild answers when they were asked about their dreams when they were young, it's really nice to be told that.

At first it was just a try--

It is precisely because I have personally walked this road that I understand how difficult this road is. If possible, I do not want my daughter to walk on this cruel road.Because the price of becoming famous is to give up one's own life, and then step on the feet of other people who have the same goals and dreams, and then step on them to climb to the top step by step.

That was me running away from life, I was a failure as an actor and entertainer, and I don't want her to experience the same pain.

But the situation seems to be a little different from what she thought——

[This mother, your daughter is an out-and-out genius. Believe me, as long as she becomes an actress, she will definitely achieve extraordinary achievements in the future. 】

【She is an angel, brush out everything else, I want her! 】

[The actor who won the best child actor of the year and the best progress award is--Artoria! 】

Leah is a genius.

My daughter is a genius!

Wouldn't it be my duty as a mother to limit her possibilities and miss out on her success because of my own past mistakes, no matter who said so?

I was terrified and hesitant.

But I am willing to believe in her possibility, even if it fails in the end, at least I can accompany her to comfort her and tell her that she has worked hard.

The more I read this diary, the more Artoria showed her a completely different side from the calm, strong, and meticulous mother in my mind.

The omnipotent mother in her impression is also extremely cautious, fearful, and step-by-step in real life, and even occasionally shows fatigue and helplessness.

『Liya has reached school age. Because of the environment, I have never let her go to school. She hired a tutor, but what should I do after this?There are more and more jobs. If she goes to school, she will inevitably need to ask for a lot of leave. Will this make her feel excluded and special at school, but if she does not go to school at this age and relies solely on tutoring, will it be harmful to the child's body and mind? What impact? 』

There are even some little jokes.

"Leah is amazing, she won the award again this time, she must not have seen it on the podium, but I saw it clearly off the stage, that old woman who said congratulations but gritted her teeth in her heart, get out of here Let's go, your time is long gone, now you just need to make way for our Leah! 』

After reading this diary, Arturia first changed from surprise to a knowing smile, and then some flowing halos faintly turned in her eyes.

She always thought that she chose the path of acting because of her mother's intention, for her unrealizable dream.Therefore, in order to make her mother happy and to comfort her mother, Artoria must continue to move forward on this road, she must win, and she must prove to everyone in the world that Artoria is the best daughter of her mother !

But in fact, these are just her wishful thinking.

It is precisely because she likes to perform and concentrates on it, which makes her mother also firm in this goal, and even quit her original job to specifically assist her.It is true that she is quite strict with her own education and management, but those are also because she is afraid of the dye vat of the entertainment industry, polluting her daughter, and preventing Artoria from falling where she once fell.

That is a protection.

Maybe it's a little too much, but after all, girls at that age have achieved success at the speed of light. Are young geniuses who are drowned in the name of genius still a minority?

It took Arturia an hour to read through the entire diary, word by word.

This is due to the fact that my mother does not write a diary every day, and the content of the writing is just like her personality, emphasizing the key points and trying to be as concise as possible.

The diary ended at the end of the last sentence and was never continued.

"Lia has been working more and more recently, especially this year when she won the Best Actress Award. The number of people who want to find her to shoot commercials has exploded geometrically.I thought that after all these years, I had become very firm.But every time I saw Liya coming back with a tired body, going out to rush to the field every few hours, and sometimes even falling asleep just standing up, to be honest, my determination was shaken again.I would think in my heart, even if I have to retreat bravely now, I have earned enough money anyway, and I have gained fame... I don’t know.But since Leah hasn't said that she wants to stop, I won't persuade her. All I can do is to arrange her schedule and workload as much as possible so that her body will not be affected by work. ...'

"Mother……"

When she saw the last few words, the corner of her mouth twitched.

The tears in the eye sockets could no longer hold back and slid down, dripping onto the yellowed paper.

Mother's cabin, time is gone.

On the photo placed on the desk, the mother holding her daughter smiled quietly.

Chapter 253

When Su Huai woke up the next day, he found that his line of sight was facing an unfamiliar ceiling.

It took him a few seconds to understand his current situation, and after confirming that his hands and feet had not been bound or beaten, he quickly sat up.

The blanket covering him slipped off, and the surrounding environment became clear in his vision. This is a clean and beautiful apartment with a big bed, a small amount of furniture, and the air-conditioning lights above the head are on. It's working fine.

This is where?
