Siege

The crew of "Pear Garden" resumed work after a three-day shutdown. Director Di Chengye came to the set early, sat by the camera and looked down at the script. Assistant director An Yang had been standing behind him for more than ten minutes with his arms folded and a cigarette butt in his mouth. It was confirmed that Director Di was just wandering with his eyes straight. Not only did the script not turn the page, but it was reversed from the beginning.An Yang threw away the cigarette butt, poked Di Chengye on the shoulder, and asked, "What's the matter? First you stopped working for no reason, and now you're acting like a listless bear, with dark circles under your eyes almost drooping on your cheeks." , don’t tell me you’ve been fooling around all night for the past few days.” As soon as An Yang finished speaking, there was a commotion at the entrance, and a few unfamiliar people came in, both men and women were wearing black formal suits, and their expressions were quite serious. He stopped at the door and stood still, as if waiting for someone.An Yang saw it and shouted over there: "Misters and ladies, did you have the wrong set? We are filming an emotional scene, and the spy movie is next door."

An Yang signaled the little brother beside him to go clean up, and in a blink of an eye he saw Xu Jincheng behind these strangers, and behind Xu Jincheng was also a familiar face, his younger brother, Xu Jinchi.

Di Chengye naturally saw it, frowned and stood up, doing his duty as a junior, went forward and said, "Here you are, who are these?"

Xu Jincheng glanced at Di Chengye with complicated eyes, and finally explained: "Several new assistants, Anan's wife's fetus is unstable, so he went to take care of it. Is Yuting here? Let An Yang take today's shooting plan come over."

After Xu Jincheng finished speaking, he went straight to his dressing room. Jin Chi didn't rush to follow. After seeing the door of Xu Jincheng's dressing room closed, he said to Di Chengye: "I hope Director Di would not make any mistakes. Things that bothered him."

Di Chengye frowned deeper, and asked, "What do you mean?"

Jinchi sneered, and said confidently: "literally, I'm already with him and live together, whether it's your hotels or old houses, let's take a rest, meddling in other people's feelings is a very bad thing, Di Tao came from a scholarly family, so he wouldn't do such a dirty thing."

After hearing this, Di Chengye turned extremely ugly, turned around and left.Jin Chi looked at him coldly, with a smile on his face again, he greeted An Yang, and said, "Jin Cheng has been unwell for the past few days and has delayed his progress, so I have to trouble everyone to take care of him, and invite everyone to dinner at noon, just say what you want. "

An Yang cheerfully agreed, Jin Chi didn't stay long, and didn't even say goodbye to Xu Jincheng, and left directly.

Jiang Yuting arrived half an hour later, An Yang greeted him with a smile on his face, but found that Jiang Yuting's face was ashen, with a sickly and weak expression. Before An Yang could ask anything, Jiang Yuting's assistant, Xiao Ai, quickly isolated him It turned out that the evasion was very obvious, and Jiang Yuting was helped into the dressing room.

There was an unprecedented low pressure on the shooting scene throughout the morning, and everyone carefully watched the faces of the main creators.After Xu Jincheng put on his clothes, he sat on the chair in the back row and closed his eyes without saying a word, his face was solemn. His new assistants stood around him carefully, as if enveloping Xu Jincheng in a dense darkness. In the enchantment, there is a strong signal that idlers and others should not approach.

Jiang Yuting, who usually talks and laughs at Yanyan, and is very friendly and enthusiastic with the staff around her, is sitting at the other end, wrapped in thick clothes, holding a cup of steaming white water, staring at the ground in a daze with her eyes down He didn't say anything, his eyes were empty, and he looked preoccupied.

As for Director Di Chengye, his mood seems to be more gloomy than in the morning. For the first time, he still has a cigarette between his fingers. He has quit smoking for a long time, and the ashes will burn his fingers. Di Chengye does not play or smoke. , after looking at Xu Jincheng frequently, Director Di smashed the cigarette butts out with the sole of his shoe, and shouted: "Everyone is in position, start shooting."

In the morning, Jiang Yuting's rivalry with Xu Jincheng was arranged according to the schedule. It was the scene of Jiang Yuting being kicked out of the teacher's school and being taken in by Prince An.After all, the bones of drama are the bones of drama. Once under the light in front of the camera, Xu Jincheng and Jiang Yuting swept away the gloom just now, with bright eyes and high spirits, and they became people in the drama again.The filming was smooth, but Di Dao kept his brows tightly locked. He looked at the two people in the show, and he always felt that it was different from the previous few days. The expressions, lines, movements, and positioning were impeccable, but he just felt that something was missing. important stuff.The first few scenes have all been one, and at the end there is the scene where the prince personally picks up Susu. Director Di watched the performance of Xu Jincheng and Jiang Yuting embracing each other after a long absence, and finally couldn't bear to shout "ka".

An Yang was startled by his sudden yelling, and hurriedly asked: "What's the matter? What's the matter? Is there a problem with the lighting? People are entering the play, isn't it good?"

Xu Jincheng stopped the action in the scene, patted Jiang Yuting's arm, and said in a low voice: "I'm very tired, I think I have filmed a lot today, come here first, let Xiaoai take you back, and continue tomorrow."

Jiang Yuting really didn't have the strength to maintain the state, so she agreed, and said to Director Di: "Sorry, I'm not feeling well, and the progress will be delayed again. You shoot the side one first, and I have to go back to catch my breath."

Di Chengye naturally saw Jiang Yuting's sick face, even if he was wearing thick clothes, it was hard to hide his tired face. Before he could say any words of condolence and comfort, Jiang Yuting had already left in a hurry with makeup on, without even a costume. Change.

Di Chengye was puzzled, stopped Xu Jincheng who was about to leave without saying a word, and said, "Let's talk."

As soon as he finished speaking, those black-clothed assistants appeared next to them like ghosts, and the leading woman said: "Mr. Xu, lunch has been ordered, please get in the car."

The tone was polite and tough. Di Chengye was also surprised to see this, and couldn't hide his surprise. Xu Jincheng glanced outside and said, "I'll have a few words with Director Di, you go to the car and wait."

The woman looked distressed and said, "But, Mr. Xu said..."

Xu Jincheng interrupted: "I turned around and told him that you are not responsible." After speaking, he signaled Di Chengye to go into the dressing room with him.Those assistants stubbornly guarded the door, showing no intention of leaving.

As soon as Di Chengye closed the door of the dressing room, he hurriedly asked, "What's the matter with these people?"

Xu Jincheng sat wearily in the chair, looked at Di Chengye in the mirror, and said, "Xiao Di, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Di Chengye was agitated for no reason, popped out a cigarette, held it between his fingers, then clenched it into his fist again, and said: "The scene in the morning...I always feel that something is not right, Prince An is a person who is cold outside and hot inside, you The expression in his eyes is already in place, but...yes, it seems that he lacked his vigorous spirit, and I didn't feel it before..." Di Chengye said, staring at Xu Jincheng in the mirror and paused, he saw Xu Jincheng Even though Jincheng put on makeup, his cheeks were still showing an unnatural red color. He stopped talking, raised his hand to touch Xu Jincheng's forehead, and said, "Why are you burning so much? It depends on your condition. Something must have happened, right? Your The new assistants are from Xu Jinchi, why are you staring at you like a prisoner? He told me in the morning... are you together?"

Xu Jincheng stood up silently, the weariness between his brows and eyes deepened, and he said in a calm voice: "I'm sorry, it's true that I'm not in a good state, and I haven't figured out a good character. Xiao Di, we can talk about things in the play, and things outside the play... ...I'm tired, so just let me go."

Di Chengye had never seen such a depressed Xu Jincheng. He suddenly realized with a heartache that it wasn't that Xu Jincheng didn't act like Prince An, but that Xu Jincheng himself had lost that aura.Di Chengye's heart was sour, he couldn't help holding Xu Jincheng's wrist tightly, and said, "You're not having a good time."

Xu Jincheng sighed, he has been used to keeping silent these days, he seems to have forgotten how to organize language to communicate with others, after several attempts to open his mouth and give up, he can only sigh softly under Di Chengye's burning concern eyes In one breath, still silent.

Di Chengye hugged him suddenly, the tall boy rested his head on Xu Jincheng's shoulder, his voice was choked up, he put his arms around Xu Jincheng's waist, and said: "You ordered me to go shopping that day, and when I came back, I would I couldn't get in touch with you. I received a call from home within a few minutes. Grandpa fell at home. The situation was very bad and he was sent to intensive care. He is still in danger. I always think he is in good health... Shou For three days and three nights with him, I didn't dare to close my eyes, and I was very scared."

Xu Jincheng was hugged by him, and he had seen Di Chengye's haggard appearance for a long time. He raised his hand and patted Di Chengye's back as if to comfort him, and said, "You should be more filial by being with Mr. Di, The old man has always loved you very much."

Di Chengye raised his head and said: "I'm not talking about this to win your sympathy, I want you to know what happened to you because I haven't contacted you very much these days, big brother and parents are with grandpa now, this crew is not alone Yes, I can't delay everyone."

Xu Jincheng nodded and said, "Xiaochi, if you want to go with grandpa, go. There is a great possibility that we will not be able to complete the filming of this scene. You have to be mentally prepared."

Di Chengye held Xu Jincheng's shoulders tightly, and asked: "Why do you say such irresponsible words? We have worked so hard together on and off the screen, and we gave up as soon as we said it. Everyone has difficulties. How could I not be able to tell whether you were doing well or not when I was in bed, I don't believe Xu Jinchi's nonsense at all, Jincheng, something must have happened, you just treat me as a friend, don't hold it in your heart, you should trust me. "

Xu Jincheng looked at Di Chengye in front of him, and suddenly remembered the time before. He did trust this young man very much, and greedily absorbed the sunshine from this young man. It seemed that it happened far away, far away. Xu Jincheng's mind was blunt about distant matters, but he finally opened his mouth and said, "Jinchi has separated from the Xu family's household registration."

Di Chengye was taken aback, and asked, "In order to be with you?"

Xu Jincheng nodded, then shook his head after a while and said, "I thought so too at first, but I have received some news in the past few days. Recently, a company secretly acquired the Xu family's property, and Jin Chi has frequent contacts with this company... There are also some Other things... His purpose of leaving the Xu family is not pure. For some reasons, I allow him to send people to follow me these days. You are right, I don’t think I am doing well, but it’s all about me The karma you have planted can only be carried by yourself. Xiaochi, thank you for your concern for me, but let’s stop here. Say hello to Mr. Di for me, and stop filming for the next few days. Wait until the old man’s condition is stable. Get back to work."

Di Chengye's eyes were sour, and he didn't let go. Xu Jincheng patted the back of his hand and said, "It's good to talk to you. I probably have no one else to talk to except you. It's time to go, Xiao Di, you too." Relax."

Di Chengye stared blankly at Xu Jincheng's leaving back. He was thinner than before, and the lines of his waist and back were not as strong and straight as before. He had a very bad feeling in his heart that Xu Jincheng had lost his sight after a few days. That kind of unique arrogance and calmness, although the words were as soft as a different person, it was also a feeling of being unable to compromise.

Di Chengye felt unspeakably sad, he knew that Xu Jincheng was not doing well, very badly, that was the person he loved deeply, what he had to do was not to let go, he had to save him.
