Before and After Divorce

After Xia Tingwan changed his clothes and put them on, he spent a few minutes in the bathroom arranging his clothes and hair before he finally got better.

After returning to the audition venue, he found that Lu Ping had left first, and only Xu Zhe, He Yanxi, and Shi Miao were left present.

"I'm back." Xu Zhe nodded at him, beckoning him to sit down, and then said: "It's okay for you to get to the bottom of the casting now. I'm afraid I won't think about the other two. Between you two , I will watch the recorded audition video several times to weigh it, and also communicate with the investor. Of course... I also have to talk to He Yanxi about his feelings for the show."

When Xu Zhe said this, he and He Yanxi looked at each other, and He Yanxi nodded slightly.

"If there is no problem, let's do it for today." Xu Zhe stood up and said, "The performances are very good, really, beyond my expectation."

Xia Tingwan didn't say much, the result was not unexpected, Lu Ping and Xu Luofei were not rivals in the first place, but Shi Miao's performance was really brilliant.

In fact, sometimes acting is like this, the fight is the understanding of the role, and whether it is consistent with the effect the director wants to present.

If Xu Zhe thinks that this scene should have a rushing outburst, then he will be inclined to time; if Xu Zhe thinks that this scene should be progressive, with depression and pain in the vigorous, then he will will win.

The key question is, who actually interprets Gu Fei in the director's mind.

Xia Tingwan hadn't fully recovered from the feeling of detachment, and he really didn't have the energy to think too much. No matter what the result was, he had already done his best.

He smiled slightly at Xu Zhe, and when he stood up, he saw Shi Miao sitting not far away, looking at him ecstatically.

In those cold, dark eyes, complex emotions faintly flickered.

At this moment, He Yanxi came over and shook hands with him.

"Mr. Xia, it's the first time I played with you, and I benefited a lot."

Xia Tingwan was a little embarrassed, and he said seriously: "You're too polite, Mr. He, fortunately you came to play in person, so I can be so devoted to acting in retrospect."

He Yanxi's palm was warm and strong.

He smiled at Xia Tingwan and spoke in a low voice.

When he was off-screen, He Yanxi was obviously completely different from Xu Rong in character. He was undoubtedly confident, and therefore he appeared to be personable and calm.

While he was talking, he suddenly thought of Shi Miao again, but when he raised his head to look at Shi Miao's position again, he found that Shi Miao had already quietly left in just these two sentences.

……

On the way home, Xia Tingwan felt that the temperature in City H suddenly dropped today, and his ears turned red from the cold just by walking a few steps outside.

Aunt Rong knew him best, and prepared a hot hot pot of lamb and scorpion for him in the evening.

He ate satisfactorily, and after taking a bath and getting into the bed warmly, he felt more alive.

In fact, for him, the withdrawal after entering the play has always been accompanied by a tear-like depression in his heart.

Use your whole body and mind as a container to present another person's life, all the emotions and obsessions are integrated into the bones, sometimes you can't distinguish the boundary between reality and drama, like pulling the soft meat of a snail out of the shell Pulled out, the pain was bloody.

After the filming of "Whale Talk", he actually couldn't get out for several months. During that time, he always dreamed, dreaming of his childhood when he was beaten severely, and dreaming that he was trembling as a child walking on the cliff, and he bowed his head. Look, the eyes are full of dark sea water.

Then before jumping into the sea, he woke up in a cold sweat again.

But fortunately, the director he was with was Xu Zhe. Xu Zhe understood that experience-based actors are unusually vulnerable at certain moments, and they also have a very old-fashioned kindness, so after the finale and promotion, he still took him with him and did not let him go. He went to the horns.

But maybe it's because of the past few years, he has stumbled and grown a lot. When he immersed himself in the character of Gu Fei and then pulled away, it didn't seem as painful as it was back then.

He curled up under the blanket and couldn't help calling Su Yan again.

Su Yan answered very quickly this time, probably because it was still early in the morning over there, and his voice was still a little nasal: "Tingting, I just woke up and was about to call you—how was the audition today?"

"Guess." Xia Tingwan turned over to a more comfortable position and said lazily.

"My little peacock is in a good mood." Su Yan laughed: "It seems that he is within reach."

"It's not that easy." Xia Tingwan retorted, but after a pause, she couldn't help but whispered again: "But I think I acted pretty well, really."

In front of others, he wouldn't say such self-satisfied words, but he couldn't help it in front of Su Yan.

As soon as Su Yan called him little peacock, he couldn't help raising his gorgeous tail feathers triumphantly.

"Su Yan..." Xia Tingwan lay on the pillow and couldn't help asking again: "When are you coming back?"

"Next week, I will definitely come back next week." Su Yan said in a deep voice.

"Really? Are you done with your work?" Xia Tingwan felt his face getting hot with joy. He missed Su Yan so much. When he thought of this man's face, he couldn't help but want to roll in bed.

"Well, it's not ideal, but it's generally settled. There are only a few details left to take care of. I'll go back as soon as I'm done." Su Yan paused for a while, and his voice softened: "I know you want to act I will definitely be able to play the role well, and I will celebrate you when I go back. This time, I ordered a few sets of haute couture and wanted to bring them back to you by the way. I found a familiar designer to design according to your liking. Want something else - a friend brought me a Richard Mille from Switzerland, I think it looks really fancy, would you like it?"

"Watches." Although Xia Tingwan had heard of this brand, he was not interested, and snorted arrogantly: "You bring it back and I'll see if it looks good. Besides, you are not mine at home."

Su Yan likes to collect watches very much. Vacheron Constantin and Patek Philippe have many pieces, which are neatly placed in the cabinet in the clothing room.

Xia Tingwan always felt that this kind of thing was too old-fashioned and expensive to die, and never thought of buying it.

But later, when he found out that it was not a problem for Zhou Yang to borrow it all the time when he was attending a big show that needed to be put on a show, he unceremoniously seized Su Yan's watch collection and borrowed it.

"I can't think of anything I want." Xia Tingwan tilted his head to think for a while, he paused, covered the quilt on top of his head, got into the quilt, and asked: "Su Yan, Are you going to work right away?"

"Not so fast, what's wrong?"

"Then, let's, shall we... play for a while."

As soon as Xia Tingwan finished speaking, his face turned red involuntarily.

Su Yan smiled softly. He obviously knew it well, but he deliberately asked, "What are you playing?"

"You, you don't understand, do you?"

Xia Tingwan was a little shy and annoyed, he was so angry that he lingered under the covers for a long time, and couldn't help but angrily said: "I've already stripped off, I'm going to play by myself—"

"You, you don't understand, do you?"

Xia Tingwan was a little shy and annoyed, he was so angry that he lingered under the covers for a long time, and couldn't help but angrily said: "I've already stripped off, I'm going to play by myself—"

"Really play by yourself?"

Su Yan spoke, his voice was deep and low, and there was a rare frivolity at the end of the question.

Xia Tingwan snorted: "Yes, I'm going to hang up now."

"Don't hang up." Su Yan said.

Xia Tingwan held the phone and didn't speak, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated a few beats.

After a few seconds of silence, he responded softly, "Yes."

"Turn on the air conditioner, the temperature in H City is cooling down today, don't froze." Su Yan said in a steady voice, "Go get a pillow and put it under your waist."

"Got it, daddy." Xia Tingwan's eyes curled up like crescent moons with a smile. He got up and grabbed a pillow from the side and stuffed it under the bed. Then he whispered happily into the phone: "Then , Then I take off my clothes now."

"It turns out you haven't taken it off yet, and you lied to me again." Su Yan said with a smile.

Xia Tingwan blushed and didn't respond, rustlingly unbuttoned his pajamas under the quilt. He was only wearing underwear on his lower body, so he simply took it off.

The naked body suddenly came into contact with the cloth, and I don't know whether it was cold or not used to it, so I involuntarily let out a soft "hiss".

"Honey, spread your legs and put your butt on the pillow." Su Yan's voice was steady, "Are you ready?"

Xia Tingwan tilted her butt obediently and separated her legs, and said seriously: "Put it away."

"Well, let me think about it, where should I touch first?"

Xia Tingwan closed his eyes when he heard Su Yan's deep voice, the hand holding the phone felt so hot, he couldn't help rubbing against the pillow: "Sir, can you touch your nipples?"

He murmured, and without waiting for Su Yan's response, the other hand had already quietly put on his chest, perhaps because the touch between his fingers had a different kind of shame, he couldn't help letting out a muffled groan from his nasal cavity .

"I didn't let you touch it."

Even if Su Yan didn't need to look, he knew exactly what Xia Tingwan was doing.

"I, I think..."

Xia Tingwan turned his head aggrieved, his fingers were still lingering on the soft and slender part of his chest, and he was reluctant to let it go.

"Take it down."

"Tingting, when I'm not by your side to play with you, your hand is my hand, and it can touch wherever I let it touch." Su Yan's tone was very strong, and his ending sound carried a unique majesty , slowly said: "If you don't obey me again, I will hang up."

"Don't...don't hang up. I'm obedient."

Xia Tingwan almost cried, he took off his hands and put them beside his body, not daring to move.

Just now it was obvious that he was bragging about hanging up the phone, but when he heard what Su Yan said, he immediately succumbed. Su Yan can always control him into submission.

"My baby." Su Yan said hoarsely, "Is the butt naked too?"

Xia Tingwan responded obediently with a nasal voice.

"Good boy, put your hand on it, and then slowly touch it along the seam of your buttocks."

Xia Tingwan blushed violently, and the feeling of slowly stroking his butt with his hand made the corners of his eyes red. At this moment, he had to try hard to imagine his hand as Su Yan, so that he could get a little bit out of that embarrassment. Get some relief.

"Did you touch it?"

"Well, uh..."

Xia Tingwan's skin rubbed against the soft quilt, and her throat couldn't help making a cooing sound like a dove, which seemed to be sobbing, and also seemed to be acting sweetly.

Through the phone, Su Yan chuckled nicely.

After a pause for a few seconds, he suddenly asked, "Honey, is your little peach slippery?"

Xia Tingwan's mind was drowsy, and he murmured subconsciously: "Slippery."

Then he asked dully, "What peach?"

"I wrote you a poem, don't you remember?"

"Ah..." Xia Tingwan moaned softly, but suddenly thought of the poem Su Yan wrote to him before.

Su Yan wrote that he is "a juicy and sweet peach on the branch."

he is……

Xia Tingwan suddenly figured out what Su Yan was talking about, his face turned red and hot, and he stammered hurriedly: "So you, didn't you actually say that I'm good-looking?"

He was angry and ashamed, and he had been quietly reciting that poem in his heart, and couldn't help feeling elated every time he thought about it.

Occasionally, I feel that I am as sweet and beautiful as the peach swaying on the branch in Su Yan's poem, but it turns out that the metaphor does not refer to his face at all.

Su Yan laughed again. At this time, he showed a hint of malice than usual, and said slowly: "It means you are delicious, little fool. Don't stop, touch it with your hands."

"You..." Xia Tingwan's toes curled up in shame, tears welled up in the corners of his eyes, and there was a hint of crying in his voice—feeling aggrieved, while being aggrieved, but subconsciously following Su Yan's words to caress Looking at himself, his fingertips went inward, almost touching the hidden part between the buttocks.

Xia Tingwan's long eyelashes rested on his lower eyelids, trembling slightly with his body.

"Ting Ting," Su Yan's voice softened, and he whispered softly and slowly in his ear, "Can you feel it? The place you touch now...is so sensitive and cute. With a little force, the skin will Will spasm weakly, can you feel how satisfied I am when I hold you?"

Xia Tingwan's lower abdomen tightened instantly, he couldn't help lifting his waist, and took a breath while whimpering.

Su Yan's pampering ending sounds like a warm cocoon, tightly wrapping him in a safe and wild world of lust.

"Su Yan..." He murmured.He thought he could feel it.

When touching himself, a very wonderful illusion gradually appeared, as if he was looking at himself from a certain angle from Su Yan's angle, and desire flowed in Su Yan's whisper and his fingertips.

He's like a hot sun, and he's also ice cream.He melts himself sweetly.

At that moment, a meaningful fragrance appeared in his body out of thin air.

……

Xia Tingwan was lying between the pillows, his eyes half-closed like a lazy cat.

The phone was put aside, and Su Yan could still hear his soft breathing that hadn't stopped.

"Su Yan."

"I'm here."

Xia Tingwan's waist was still immersed in the numbness of satisfaction, although he was tired but reluctant to fall asleep, he called Su Yan from time to time to confirm the existence of the other party.

"I'm going to audition today, and I'm going to play against He Yanxi, who plays Xu Rong... You know He Yanxi, the double-gold actor."

He put his body down on the side, put his mouth close to the phone, and whispered to Su Yan in a half-dream and half-awake voice: "He is so amazing... Su Yan. I have never seen such a powerful actor. He neither dominates others, I can also catch all the emotional changes I throw out, delicate and explosive. Really, acting with him is like, like dancing a two-person tango, so exciting. In the play, he is Xu Rong , I'm Gu Fei... Once in the play, I can't help but feel that he is really charming."

Su Yan said "hmm" and asked, "Is he handsome?"

"Handsome." Xia Tingwan replied subconsciously in a daze.

Su Yan was silent for a long time, until Xia Tingwan almost closed his eyes and fell asleep, and then said in a low voice: "Little bastard."

He paused, then continued: "Sometimes, I can't help but think—how wonderful it would be if you were a little canary, and I could lock you in a cage, feed you, feed you, give you You groom your feathers so that there is only me in your life, only me."

His voice was suppressed with some complex and strong emotions, and he spoke every word very slowly, and in the end, his voice became hoarse.

Xia Tingwan tilted his head and listened. He seldom heard Su Yan say such extremely deep words, but the strange thing was that he didn't think that kind of obsession with imprisonment was so terrible.

Perhaps the satisfaction of lust was still flowing in his body, and his heart was full of nostalgia and attachment for Su Yan.

"Okay." He smiled foolishly, rolled on the bed, picked up his phone, and said softly to Su Yan: "If you fuck me every day, lock me up forever, I'm very happy .”

Su Yan was teased by him and gave a low laugh.

After a long time, there was a slight sigh from over there.

"Ting Ting," Su Yan said, "Keep acting well, you are my pride and will always be."

……

Xia Tingwan slept soundly that night, and it was past ten o'clock the next day, and when he woke up, he still felt a numb feeling of satisfaction in his body.

As soon as he got up, he saw several missed calls from Zhou Yang displayed on his mobile phone. Suddenly, a bad premonition floated in his heart. He didn't dare to waste time and immediately dialed back. Zhou Yang answered the call. Without waiting for him to open his mouth, he simply said three words: "Look at Weibo."

With a heavy heart, Xia Tingwan opened Weibo on the iPad, opened the homepage of the "On the Road" program group, and sure enough, saw a few minutes behind-the-scenes video that had just been uploaded for half an hour.

He took a closer look and found that the title was actually called "Actor's First Tears and Confessions after Divorce".

Xia Tingwan was suddenly stunned.

He opened the video with trembling fingers, but after watching it for a minute, he felt his mind go blank and his temples throbbing.

He was still confused at first, he never cried because of talking about Su Yan during the filming, so how could there be such a video.But he is still too stupid, even though he has been tricked once, he still didn't expect that the program group could refresh his lower limit cognition again and again.

They did mention Su Yan once in Chiang Mai.

That time when everyone was sitting in the courtyard of the villa and chatting, Xing Le asked him if he was still in touch with Su Yan after the divorce, and how his mood was adjusted. He also mentioned that many media wrote about the divorce because of a third party. Step in and ask if that's really the case.

In fact, these problems themselves are quite normal. The program team invited him to participate in the reality show at that time, it is impossible not to make a fuss about his personal relationship scandal.

He was not unprepared at the time, and there was nothing wrong with his answer from the content point of view. He said that he was still friends after the divorce and still had occasional contact.It's just that when Xing Le mentioned Su Yan, he still couldn't hold back and explained something for Su Yan.

He said that it had nothing to do with the third party, but it was because he was too willful and often failed to manage his marriage well. Su Yan treated him—in fact, he has always been very good.

When he said the last sentence, he was indeed a little emotional, but that emotion was quickly withdrawn.

After that, Xing Le didn't ask anything else.

But also in the middle of the night of that day, he performed a segment of "Whale Language" in front of everyone. During that segment of performance, he did cry.

The same clothes, the same sitting order, gave the program group the basis for wanton editing,

He said something about Su Yan in his mouth, and when he performed Xiao Xia, there were tears in his eyes, and then slowly flowed out.

It seemed that there was no flaw at all, even Xia Tingwan himself felt an indescribable sense of space-time disorder for a moment.

Every one of the comments posted quickly on Weibo made him tremble all over.

"While saying that there is no third party and that Su Yan treats him very well, while weeping sadly at the camera, what are you acting on? You have to have a head to hype your relationship, right?"

"I just want to ask if Xia Yingdi's personality is a crystal hypocritical boy who needs everyone's love and protection?"

"The old melon-eaters who watched Xia Tingwan's kissing scandal with LKW said that they deserved the divorce, so don't cry."

"Isn't the marriage of a wealthy family and an actor just like this? It can be somewhat true, but I don't know how much money Xia Tingwan can get for divorce?"

"You, you wait..."

Xia Tingwan said to Zhou Yang with difficulty.

Before he finished speaking, he rushed to the bathroom, feeling a violent spasm in his stomach.

He couldn't help retching twice against the sink, and his body gradually collapsed to the ground.

He couldn't describe how intense his pain was at this moment.

When he said "Su Yan has always been very kind to me", he was sincere.

Facing the camera, he performed Xiao Xiashi to his heart's content, and he was also sincere.

But no one cared about his sincerity.

The program crew edited him, and the onlookers mocked him.

His personal emotions as a person, his deep love for acting, are all stripped from his body.

It was chopped and kneaded together with a knife, and cooked into a pot of instant food for the public with great malice.

He was brutally consumed, chewed, spat out, and scolded for hype.

He didn't know why this happened, why the world was like this.

……

Xia Tingwan didn't know how long it had passed, he finally called Zhou Yang in despair, and he murmured: "Zhou Yang, I didn't do that, they cut it randomly."

"I know." Zhou Yang's voice was very steady.

Xia Tingwan felt like she was about to collapse.

Covering his face, he repeated hysterically: "Zhou Yang, I really didn't cry when I mentioned Su Yan—I don't know how to explain it, they deliberately asked me to play the part of "Whale Language", and then randomly cut it together , I really didn't."

"Tingwan, calm down now, listen to me," Zhou Yang said in a heavy tone, as if confirming, and forcefully pulled Xia Tingwan back: "...Tell me, can you hear me?"

"En." Xia Tingwan nodded tremblingly, only to realize that Zhou Yang couldn't see it at all.

Zhou Yang's tone was very calm, and he said slowly: "Whether it's before marriage or after divorce, for more than five years, you have never consumed Mr. Su even once, and you have never sent a draft to hype the relationship between you. Feelings. This time, I know you are very sad, you care about Mr. Su in your heart, and you don’t want to be misunderstood like this. But I know you will not be like that, and Mr. Su knows it too, do you understand? Do you trust him? "

"I believe……"

When Xia Tingwan heard Su Yan's name, those two simple words seemed to give him the courage to stay on the ground out of thin air.

Taking a deep breath, he held the phone tightly and said, "Su Yan won't believe me. I'm not worried about it."

"That's good." Zhou Yang said: "The person you care about the most believes in you, and you don't have to worry about the rest. They scold you because they have a habit of hacking you, and they have to laugh at everything that happens. There are always people who will criticize you. Some take the lead in ridiculing, some follow suit, but more people are silent. Do you understand?"

"Look, as I said before, Ye Bingwen will do anything to blackmail you, and you will lose your sense of proportion. This tidbit—on the contrary, makes me think that we will soon be able to wait until the time to fight back."

The speed of Zhou Yang's speech sped up slightly, and Xia Tingwan suddenly felt a sense of tension that the prey was gradually entering the field of vision from his tone.

Zhou Yang paused, then continued calmly: "In the past few days, I have made preparations with the people from Ander PR, and I have also contacted many media in private. I will release some manuscripts in the past few days to distract the current attention. We have prepared a lot of manuscripts with various arguments, and we will not appear too deliberate. In any case, it is very suspicious for a program group to release two behind-the-scenes videos in a row, and the result is to blacken their own MC. We You can write some articles from this angle first.”

"Zhou Yang," Xia Tingwan suddenly thought of something, raised his head and said, "You still need to find someone to pull the original film."

"Ok?"

"Find someone who knows how to edit, and compare the tidbits on the road with the original film where I shed tears in "Whale Language". When I replayed it in Thailand, the action sequence and facial expressions basically maintained the rhythm of the original film. , see if you can find any clues from the comparison."

Xia Tingwan was a little excited, he was not good at other aspects.

But he knows movies.

A "Whale Language", every movement, expression, and every little emotion, he always remembers in his heart.

Therefore, after more than six years, it can still be reproduced flawlessly in Thailand.

An actor's emotions in the movie and the rhythm of speaking lines are all subtly different from those in life. It is absolutely difficult to edit and edit daily dialogues perfectly and seamlessly.

He wanted to find the loophole in the behind-the-scenes video, and he believed that the loophole must exist.

"Understood," Zhou Yang reacted quickly, and he said calmly, "Once I see something, I will prepare the manuscript and comparison, let experienced movie fans post it, and then find film critics to express their opinions."

"Ting Wan, there are other things besides this." Zhou Yang sighed, and said in a low voice: "In terms of funds. TBN sent us a calculated breach of contract payment. To be honest, the amount is a bit scary. Moreover, we still have follow-up public relations and capital circulation from the media, so you have the financial situation on hand, isn’t it good?”
