I'm Not Shouldering This Blame

The beautiful notes of Chapter 4 of Schubert's "Trout" flow in the air of the coffee shop.

The shop is decorated in retro style, with green leaves such as vines separating private spaces, the floor is paved with small and delicate pebbles, and there is gurgling water.Sunlight shines in through the transparent glass roof, but is blocked by flower trees.

This is not so much a coffee shop, but more like a garden for people to take a rest in the afternoon.

There are not many customers in the store, and the ingenious partition makes it difficult to see the entire lobby.

The bone china spoon stirred slightly in the mellow brown liquid, and there was a warm taste in the heat emitted. The slender fingers picked up a small cube of sugar and threw it into the cup.

A current issue of the entertainment magazine was laid on the table. Without the sunglasses on his face, Li Fei looked like he was just enjoying his leisure time. He flipped the magazine to the column page introducing movies.

It looked like he was reading, but Li Fei's gaze didn't stay on the page.

As if he was bored, he fiddled with the lighter cover with his left hand from time to time. The sound of the button was very slight, and no flame came out.

When the sugar cube in the coffee was half melted, Li Fei saw a person walking towards the table under the guidance of the waiter.

The music is entering a minor variation, the sun is shining on that person, his appearance is blurred, but his temperament is outstanding.

A light-colored shirt and a black jacket are not particular about the tailoring and texture, and they don't even have a brand name.Even though he was walking here, the owner of the clothes still seemed at ease, not caring about the speculations and gazes of others at all.

After watching for a long time, Li Fei subconsciously closed his eyes.

Then he froze, and the lighter in his hand slipped onto the table.

When Jian Hua walked into this coffee shop, an ominous premonition arose in his heart.

This is the meeting place that Li Fei made an appointment with him. With Li Fei's status, there is no need to use a small substitute.Even if you want to cheat, you don't need to choose such a high-end coffee shop. Isn't a private club more suitable?

In addition to the omen of danger, there was also an inexplicable excitement.

With such a strange mood, Jian Hua walked through the hollowed-out partition wall decorated with flowers and trees, and when he approached the table, the sound of his heartbeat suddenly matched the tune of the tuned music.

The trout, the trout swimming freely in the stream, was caught, it became game.

——The beast opened its eyes, and it found its prey.

Both Jian Hua and Li Fei were caught off guard by this turn of events. Despite the unimaginable changes in their lives, they both chose to wait and see the changes rationally and continue with their original plans.

Now that an accident broke in suddenly, I really don't know whether it was a shock or a surprise.

"So it was you." Li Fei Jianhua murmured at the same time.

There was another force that appeared in Huaicheng that made him very mindful.

"Sir, isn't this the table you're looking for?" the waiter leading the way asked quickly.

"No, it's this table." Li Fei nodded with a smile. The waiter was a young girl, her cheeks flushed immediately. left.

What Jian Hua was going to say was completely interrupted by this accident.

After sitting down numbly, Jian Hua's gaze involuntarily fell on the inside page of the entertainment magazine. The color picture on the single page was the still photo of "The Raven". Unlike the poster, here it used a silhouette.

The general stood by the river, his armor was bright and shiny, but the reflection in the river was covered in blood, his battle robe was torn, and there were gaps everywhere on the weapon he was holding. The only similar thing was the same tall and straight body.

"The release date of the film was finally adjusted, and the picture was urgently needed. I didn't have time to make a reshoot. They selected a composite from the edited film—" Li Fei pointed at the color picture with his finger.

The figure on the water and the shadow in the water are actually not the same person.

"You are excellent. You are the best stuntman I have ever seen who can grasp the charm of a character." Li Fei's tone was like melting sugar cubes in a coffee cup, soft and warm.

This is not the first time they have met.

During the filming of "The Crow", they talked and ate the crew's box lunch together.

Except that Li Fei has his own makeup artist, they sometimes use the same costumes and props regardless of each other, but when the film is finished, they, like the rest of the crew, soon go their separate ways.

Just strangers who talked.

What is the relationship between an actor and a stuntman?

Li Fei closed the magazine and pushed it to the side, across a table, without the magazine, the distance between them suddenly became empty, and the distant strangeness intensified.

"You know, why can't you be a good actor and stand alone in front of the camera?"

"My micro-expression is unqualified." Jian Hua replied coldly.

The eyes, the muscles on the face, and the arc of the frown all unconsciously reveal Jian Hua's inner thoughts, which he cannot control.Jian Hua lowered his head, and was able to perfectly disguise himself when his eyes were not in contact with others. Once he showed his face, no matter how good his acting skills were, he couldn't resist the expression that dragged his feet. After years of hard work, he could only maintain a calm expression at all times. Just a shocked face.

Now Jian Hua's eyes are full of vigilance, and there is hostility in his expression.

Li Fei controlled his admiring gaze, he didn't want to show a regretful expression.

Regret represents pity to a certain extent. The entertainment industry is a glamorous place, but it is also an arena that is more cruel than anything else. The most terrifying thing in the world is "not talented".

To the proud in their bones, pity is an insult.

"I heard you haven't been working lately."

Li Fei is a person who is used to leading the conversation, their identities are very different, of course Jian Hua will not grab this point, but just listened silently.

"Star Entertainment Media is a good company. It doesn't treat people in the film and television industry harshly. You need a job, and I believe that I am your best choice until 5 minutes ago..."

Li Fei changed the topic, and the last few words made the air freeze a bit.

Under this kind of pressure, Jian Hua slowly curled the corners of his lips, and the sunlight shone on his face through the gaps in the leaves of the vines. His handsome face was originally blurred in the warm light, but suddenly his aura became extremely fierce.

——Just like what Li Fei saw when he closed his eyes.

In that field of vision, everyone seemed empty and thin, a shadow that could be blown away by a gust of wind. He could even see the outlines of bones in people's bodies, without strength or weight.

Only the existence of this person in front of him is real, every texture and texture of that face is vivid, his brows and eyes are clear and profound, this force is revealed, and even the places Jian Hua walks through are transformed. be real and beautiful.

The more Li Fei wanted to see through this power, the more his heart throbbed.

It was an endless abyss, full of rich black, it devoured all colors, and possessed all reality, it stared at Li Fei calmly, like sizing up a favorite prey.

"We are very similar, that's why I appointed you at first..." Li Fei suppressed the desire to conquer in his mind, the power he obtained when the Pearl Hotel exploded was just about to move, "I never thought that we would be so similar."

Jian Hua didn't hide it: "You controlled that power?"

Li Fei suddenly closed his eyes, took a sip of coffee, and slowly shook his head: "It's hard to say."

This is not something he is willing to accept, and Li Fei's implication is obvious, which touched Jian Hua's mind.The ability to read is inexplicable, time stops one after another, and I always feel that worse problems will happen later.

The two sat opposite each other speechlessly, and the tense atmosphere slowly dissipated.

Strength will lead to struggle, but a common secret will make people have a tacit understanding.

"I thought... at least it would be a private room?" Jian Hua looked around, news about actor Li Fei was raging on the Internet, but the real master was sitting here drinking coffee majestically.

Li Fei chuckled, put down the cup in his hand, and crossed his fingers: "I opened this coffee shop."

"..."

"When we are talking, the waiter will not bring new customers to the tables around us, it is no different from the box." Li Fei said, his smile widened, his charm was more dazzling than the sun itself, "Do you want Order whatever you want."

Jian Hua was silent for half a minute, and finally couldn't hold back: "It must be that the box is fully booked."

"You discovered all of this." Li Fei smiled happily.

"It costs a lot of money for maintenance every year, isn't it a loss?" Jian Hua reached out and touched the leaves of the wisteria, and he was right, it was a real plant.

"Please don't tell the truth in public in the future, especially the truth about me." Li Fei patted the back of Jian Hua's hand, and the latter instinctively made a move, but fortunately he held back and didn't shrink back.

"It seems that you have no plan to find another safe and unsecret stand-in actor." Jian Hua brought the conversation back to the original topic.

What Li Fei meant just now was obvious, he was interested in future cooperation.

Both public and private are beneficial to Jian Hua.Needless to say, eating and making money to live is the top priority, Jian Hua looked at the film king inquiringly, he wanted to get clues about the ability of mind from Li Fei.

"People who have their own troubles are not qualified to pick on others." Li Fei nodded, picked up his phone, turned on the Bluetooth function, and asked Jian Hua, "What is the model of your phone?"

After getting the answer, he sent the electronic draft of the contract.

Jian Hua carefully read the entire content and found that the draft was impeccable.

It is only required that the signatory will accompany Li Fei to participate in the filming no matter what the situation is, and if necessary, he can stay at home and get moldy. The contract period is one year and the signing will take effect. If it is placed in the circle, this generous treatment will make everyone crowded. broken head.

"If there is no objection, my assistant will arrive in Huaicheng in half an hour. We can have afternoon tea and chat here, and wait for him to bring the printed documents and sign the contract directly."

"..."

What's with this feeling of sympathy for the actor's assistant?

Seeing the clue from Jian Hua's subtle expression changes, Li Fei smiled happily, and he stretched out his hand to the person across the table: "Then get to know each other again, I think we need to understand more, in various aspects. "

Jian Hua silently held that hand.

"Li Fei, gender male, hobby male." Li Fei let go of his hand and leaned back comfortably, "I think you know about it."

The corners of Jian Hua's eyes twitched, he suddenly raised his head, and said in a clear voice: "Jian Hua, male, I like you."
