Golden Boy

Su Pei woke up thirsty in the middle of the night, he reached out randomly and found a bottle of mineral water.

After drinking half a bottle of mineral water, Su Pei found himself trapped in a strange and soft sofa with a blanket covering his body, which was much better than lying on the floor.

He slowly sat up, this much more luxurious room did not seem to be his own hotel room.

"You're awake." He Yiming's voice came from the corner.

Su Pei turned his head slowly and saw He Yiming sitting on a single chair in the corner with a notebook on his lap.

He was still dizzy in his head, as if he was sitting on the waves.He wasn't even sure if he was awake or dreaming.

Su Pei covered his face and rubbed it, and he made a sound like a moan.

"I..." He paused, "Why am I here..."

He Yiming said: "You just grabbed me and didn't let me go, and you wanted to chat with me. I can only bring you into the room."

Su Pei smiled sarcastically, it really sounds like him.He should have expected it earlier.

Su Pei leaned on the cushion and changed to a comfortable position on the sofa to lie down, so that he could face He Yiming face to face.He seemed to be back in college in a trance.The rehearsal of the drama club is late, they will stay in the rehearsal room overnight, and everyone will sleep together on the floor to talk at night.

At that time, the relationship between him and He Yiming seemed to never need to be careful to avoid any topics, and they talked about everything, very carefree.

"I saw your recent private museum on the Internet, and the remote virtual experience system is great." Su Pei said.He was still drunk and couldn't help rambling.

He Yiming said: "That's not the system I developed. I just paid for it."

Su Pei said: "At least you are not wrong to sponsor."

He Yiming said with a smile: "I have a very clear evaluation of my work. How are you?"

Su Pei carefully pulled the blanket on his body: "As you can see, I am talking to the crew, and it is estimated that the filming will be finished in more than two months. This drama has a lot of investment, and the actors are not bad..."

He Yiming frowned.Su Pei added: "Actually, don't look at Fang Ziling, the male protagonist is more troublesome than her... If a line exceeds [-] words, his brain will freeze. I've been reshooting today...Fang Ziling's acting skills are actually not bad as an actor I have learned a lot from this drama, and if I write a spy drama next time, it will be easier for me to write."

However, He Yiming was not interested in his screenwriting experience. He asked: "How is your novel writing going?"

Su Pei's voice suddenly weakened, and he said, "I'm writing."

He Yiming said: "I don't believe it. You told me two years ago that you were writing a novel about the medical system and the relationship between doctors and patients. It's not finished yet?"

Su Pei emphasized again: "I'm writing."

He Yiming was aggressive: "How much have you written? Have you finished the first draft? Have you written [-] words? [-] words? You have been writing scripts with rubbish crews, and you still have the energy to write novels?"

Su Pei's pale face finally flushed, and he could even feel his shoulders trembling slightly.The last time he and He Yiming had a quarrel because of his script writing.He thought that He Yiming's attitude would change this time.

"Your good friend Bo Wenchen invested in this drama, you say he is a trash crew?" Su Pei's voice also cooled down.

He Yiming shut up.

But Su Pei could still hear his voice.Because He Yiming's sense of presence is too strong, his sculptural side face, the pair of falcon-like eyes under the thick eyebrows, even if he does not make a sound, it is enough to express strong emotions.

Su Pei often feels that He Yiming knows how to use this aura to express himself better than most of the actors he has seen.

He finally couldn't help shouting out: "This is my job! You don't know the pressure on the crew!"

He Yiming said: "What's the use? Is the script you're writing your own work? You're just writing it for someone else. It's no different from a gunman. After you finish writing this script, you won't know it yourself. Think about it again."

His voice was not high, but it was late at night, and this luxurious room was too quiet.Every word he said was hammered into Su Pei's ears.

Su Pei felt a burst of sadness and many memories welling up in his heart, which was almost exactly the same as the content of their last quarrel.He murmured, "Maybe I am no longer worthy to be your friend."

He slowly got up from the sofa.

He Yiming asked: "What are you doing?"

Su Pei said, "I'll go back."

As soon as he thought of what kind of eyes He Yiming was looking at him now, he couldn't bear it for another second.

But the alcohol hindered his movement, his head was very dizzy, his fingers were trembling because of excitement and anger, and he couldn't even find where his shoes were, so he could only kick the hotel slippers aside.

He Yiming came over and looked at him condescendingly: "You're drunk!"

Su Pei shook his head, panting: "I'm not drunk... He Yiming... You don't know how I got here in the past two or three years. You have no right to say that my work is meaningless... It's meaningless..."

He was still drunk, and repeated these few words unconsciously, but he didn't have the strength to stand up and slam the door to leave.He seemed trapped in a cruel dream.

He Yiming looked at Su Pei in front of him.His face was pale, even his lips seemed bloodless, his slender body, thin shoulders, like a nocturnal ghost, still swaying slightly in the half-dream and half-awake, whether it was because of anger or alcohol.

He only needs one hand to restrain Su Pei like this... He can easily press Su Pei on this sofa...

But what's the point?Su Pei is now in a state of drunkenness, he is in a daze and his voice is faint.

Only at this time, the evil thoughts in He Yiming's heart dared to come out.

Su Pei is still competing with his shoes.He Yiming finally couldn't stand it anymore, he rudely pushed Su Pei on the sofa: "You are drunk, don't go anywhere, just sleep here." He said very forcefully.

Su Pei suddenly pushed away He Yiming's hand that was holding him.

He Yiming withdrew his hand like an electric shock, he had a ghost in his heart and dared not touch Su Pei again.

Su Pei broke out: "I have a mortgage on my back, but it's not in a school district. Little Cookie won't be able to get into a good public school. The divorce between Shen Lan and I is enough to delay her. I have to grit my teeth and let her go to a private school. Every month, the mortgage and Xiaoqu How can I save on the expenses of Cookie? Dance lessons and swimming lessons are the most basic. My mother helps me take care of Cookie, so I have to subsidize her every month? I sometimes want to get rid of all these, But how is it possible..."

His tears slid down his nose to his chin, but he didn't feel it, he seemed to have forgotten He Yiming in front of him.

He Yiming finally lowered his voice and said, "Okay, I won't talk about your job anymore. You can continue to be a screenwriter, and go to whichever crew you like. I won't say anything more."

He gently touched Su Pei's chin with the back of his hand, and wiped away those tears.He pushed Su Pei down again: "...Go to sleep and have a good rest."

After venting, Su Pei finally calmed down. He closed his eyes and muttered, "Don't...laugh at me..."

He Yiming coaxed him in a low voice: "I never laughed at you."

Su Pei rolled over on the sofa with his eyes closed, and moaned: "He Yiming...".He Yiming immediately asked: "What's wrong?"

Su Pei murmured: "The sofa is too soft...I can't sleep comfortably...Back hurts..."

He Yiming didn't say anything.He almost forgot that Su Pei is a person who is so picky about the environment and loves to enjoy himself.They used to travel together, and Su Pei had to buy a soft sleeper ticket for the five-hour train ride.

Such a person is now suffering in the crew.

Early the next morning, Su Pei woke up with a headache.He didn't drink well, and although he was awake, his body was still heavy.He was lying on a double bed, slowly recalling what happened last night.Maybe his memory became less clear from the second half of the banquet.

He was thinking hard when He Yiming came out of the bathroom.

He Yiming glanced at him and said, "Are you awake? I've already been to the gym."

He wiped his body and changed his clothes.

Su Pei looked at He Yiming's body and felt that He Yiming's muscles were stronger than before when he was in college.This visual impact made his brain clear up a lot.

Su Pei immediately remembered that it was time for him to go to the set.He hurriedly prepared to leave, then asked He Yiming: "When are you leaving?"

He Yiming said, "The plane will be in two hours."

Su Pei felt a little regretful: "Then let's meet again next time."

He is in a much better mood now, Yao Zhicheng is right, he exaggerated the gap between him and He Yiming before.As long as they talk face to face, nothing is a problem.

He Yiming smiled, "Aren't you worried that I'll say something you don't want to hear?"

Su Pei said: "Didn't we talk about nothing? Let's talk slowly next time."

He vaguely felt that he and He Yiming had said something last night.But when he was drunk, he always talked a lot, just drunk talk.

He Yiming had already put on his shirt and trousers, and was fastening his belt.Hearing what Su Pei said, he was suddenly a little disappointed.He just helped Su Pei to bed last night.

"Okay," He Yiming said, "We'll meet again next time. But don't delay too long."

Su Pei and He Yiming made an agreement, feeling suddenly relaxed.

When he returned to the crew, the director's attitude towards him changed slightly.More than one person even said to him, "Mr. Su, why didn't you say that He Yiming is your junior?"

But the relaxed mood didn't last long.The whole crew quickly became flustered again, because their heroine Fang Ziling suddenly had a "fever" and the crew asked for leave for three days, and they couldn't come to work for these three days.The original shooting plan was disrupted.I could only shoot other people's scenes first, and the male lead took the opportunity to ask for a change.

However, "fever" is just an excuse, and there are no secrets in the crew.Fang Ziling didn't feel unwell, it's just that the driver sent her out of the hotel early in the morning.It turned out that she was just going on a trip with Bai Wenchen, so she took three days off.

As soon as Su Pei came to the crew, he was arrested and sent to a meeting. Everyone changed a few scenes before Su Pei took a break.

Xiaoyan brought him lunch and started gossiping: "Fang Ziling doesn't have a fever at all, she's in good health!"

Su Pei remembered Fang Ziling and Bai Wenchen's stickiness last night, and he wasn't too surprised.It's just that he thought Fang Ziling would be more ambitious.

Xiaoyan asked again: "Mr. Su, you and He Yiming are schoolmates and have always been good friends. You never mentioned it!"

Su Pei didn't want others to think that he deliberately got close to He Yiming.He said: "I was fine with him when we were in school. After graduation, we had a lot less interaction."

Xiaoyan smiled and said: "But you can't see the estrangement, you still have to reminisce about the past after drinking too much yesterday. He even beat Fang Ziling for you."

Su Pei was startled: "How do you know?" He remembered that Xiaoyan was not at their table when they had dinner last night.
