early morning twilight

The city of Chengdu has extraordinary tolerance.

People with skills can easily find their place here and make a good living.

That day in the cafe, Si Ye got up and left after finishing speaking.

Jin Chongshan instinctively chased after him and grabbed his wrist.

His chest was tight, but he tried to calm down, "Brother Jin, we don't need to make such an ugly mess."

Jin Chongshan stared at him, his lips moved, maybe he wanted to say something.

But he took the first step: "You are not a stalker. I used to be, but I have changed."

"So, let's all be decent."

Si Ye lowered his eyes, looking at the hand holding his forearm.

He used to love this hand so much.

The palm is warm and dry, with the roughness of the border.

He pressed his face against it and rubbed gently.

Jin Chongshan would clasp the back of his neck, touch his red earlobes, and his blond hair blown by the wind.

But that's all in the past.

He touched the back of Jin Chongshan's hand and separated his fingers from his forearm.

Jin Chongshan did fulfill the decency he wanted, allowing him to separate his fingers.

But at that moment, a corner of my heart that only he knew was in severe pain.

He withdrew his arm and didn't look at Jin Chongshan again, "I'm leaving, goodbye."

Jin Chongshan looked at Siye's back for a long time.

After completely losing sight, he returned to his seat and drank the drinks for two.

He felt lost and bewildered.

Si Ye didn't want to continue, his presence was unexpected and disgraceful.

go back?

As soon as this idea came up, he was rejected by him.

For the first time in his life, he followed his inner "selfishness" and came to Chengdu.

Once you have tasted the taste of "selfishness", it will be difficult to return to the past without desires, desires, sorrows and joys.

He didn't know what to do to get Siye back, but he knew that once he returned with dignity, he would lose Siye forever.

Jin Chongshan still lived in the hotel near Siye's house, and he didn't send any more messages to Siye, nor did he go to the studio to block people.

He went out with his camera on his back every day, and soon found a job as a photographer and post-production.

Not busy, how many orders to accept is up to him.

Most of the photos are fashion, and sometimes I go to western Sichuan to do landscape photography.

Although Western Sichuan and the Pamirs are located in the north and the south, the ethnic minorities living there are also different.

But Jin Chongshan's adaptation and understanding of the plateau is far beyond that of ordinary photographers, and he can also arrange post-production.

Summer and autumn are the most beautiful times in western Sichuan, and there are orders from time to time.

It didn't take much time for Jin Zhongshan to become a well-known photographer in the small circle.

He was just like what Si Ye expected, he didn't stalk him.

But not far away either.

He and Si Ye are neighbors across the road, and they often go to Taikoo Li when they are doing fashion shoots, and they will pass by the door of "Wilderness" every time.

As soon as Bai Xiaoye saw him, he would warmly greet him to drink coffee in the store.

When he was shooting for other brands, Bai Xiao also walked over in a big way.

"Le is the royal photographer of our family, and I will lend it to you."

He never denied it, just smiled lightly.

The many activities organized by "Wilderness" created enough momentum when it opened, and colleagues know which photography studios to cooperate with.

Once, Jin Chongshan's client couldn't stand Bai Xiaoye's bragging, and finally took off his "emperor's new clothes".

"Brother Jin never took your order! What are you guys, Brother Jin is just too lazy to pick your skin! Are you addicted to bragging?"

Bai Xiao was also wronged, "Brother Jin is our family's bean! Brother Jin, if you don't cooperate with us, you won't believe anyone else!"

Client: "Brother Jin, ignore him! Now that you are worth a lot, he will come and rub you!"

Jin Chongshan said: "I belong to their family."

Customer: "What's wrong? I've been acting wrong for a long time?"

Jin Chongshan continued to take pictures, "It's just that my family hasn't assigned me a task yet."

Bai Xiao also got excited immediately, "I'll send it right away!"

Si Ye plunged into work, trying not to think about Jin Chongshan.

But Bai Xiao also sometimes Jin Ge grows Jin Ge short, he knows that Jin Chongshan not only did not leave, but also found a job in Chengdu.

Whenever he was free, Si Ye was very anxious.

Jin Chongshan is in Chengdu. For him to stay in Chengdu, even his work is related to his career.

When did Jin Zhongshan learn photography and post-processing?Is it because of him too?

He was in a panic, and he was overwhelmed by complicated emotions.

But he couldn't tell anyone, he could only press them deep.

I don't know when it will be overloaded and it will explode completely.

The more this happened, the more frequently he visited the happy homepage.

no update.

He finally found it, and the person who would show him the Duku Highway disappeared without a word.

Summer is already in full bloom. If we wait any longer, the Duku Highway will be closed in September.

He suddenly wanted to escape.

Jin Chongshan is in Chengdu, so he will leave Chengdu.

Last year, it was not regarded as the Duku Highway, so it should go this year.

He can also drive. He has driven all the mountain roads in the Pamirs. He rented a car and took the Duku Highway. There is nothing wrong with crossing the Tianshan Mountains alone.

The plan took shape, and Si Ye planned to take a vacation for himself.

Hurry up to complete the matter at hand, and postpone the undecided work.

But just after he booked the air ticket and hotel, "Wilderness" encountered a little bit of trouble.

A few months ago, Sister Xing mentioned to him that after the co-production photography studio left Chengdu, the new teams they came into contact with did not get along very well.

In this industry, if there is no suitable photographer, the effect will be compromised.

He said change it if it’s not suitable, and talk about it if you like it, don’t worry about money.

Sister Star did exactly that.

Originally, there was no deal for everyone to cooperate with, and some photographers were not interested in "wilderness", but "wilderness" made a bridge and found them a co-production client.

However, there was one family who was not of good character, the cooperation was not negotiated, and the early remuneration was received. They were friendly and leaked unpublished photos of "Wilder" behind their backs, and spread rumors that "Wilder" violated industry rules and defaulted on payment.

Of course this has to be defended.

When "Wildness" was still a small studio, Si Yu was afraid that Si Ye would be cheated, so he gave him his own legal team.

Litigation is a trivial matter, but the trouble is that the photographer who originally negotiated to take over is very concerned about the leaking of the previous photos, and he doesn't want to get himself involved in the incident, so this matter will become dirty.

Things have come to this point, and better photographers are unwilling to take over.

Those who are willing to take it, the level can't even pass the level of Sister Xing, let alone Si Ye's level.

Everyone had a meeting to find a way, and Bai Xiao also said: "My brother Jin! He just complained to me, why didn't my family ask him out!"

Si Ye remained silent.

Bai Xiao also quickly showed Jin Zhongshan's works, acting like an agent.

The designers in charge are all Si Ye's old buddies, who doesn't know Jin Chongshan?

It's just that Jin Zhongshan disappeared suddenly last year, and Si Ye didn't say anything. Everyone secretly guessed that there was some contradiction between the two.

A designer said: "Xiao Ye, if Brother Jin is willing, why don't you invite him to try? Now we really can't find anyone else, and he is also familiar with our style."

Bai Xiao also nodded quickly, "Yeah!"

Si Ye didn't want to use his personal affairs to affect his work, he had seen every picture taken by Jin Zhongshan, as long as Bai Xiao also had it.

To be honest, there is no other photographer more suitable than Jin Zhongshan.

"Xiaobai, you make arrangements."

When Jin Chongshan received a call from Bai Xiaoye, his voice was not surprised or surprised, but his eyes suddenly brightened.

"Okay, I'll come right now."

Because of legal disputes and a temporary replacement of photographers, Si Ye had to postpone the trip.

Si Yu didn't know that Jin Chongshan was back, and he came to the "wilderness" just to see how the dispute was resolved, but he saw Jin Chongshan who was having a meeting with two designers.

Surprised and angry, Si Yu almost rushed in, but was spotted by Si Ye, who was walking around restlessly, and stopped him.

Si Ye said with an almost begging expression: "Brother, brother, listen to me!"

Fortunately, there was no one outside the meeting room, so Si Yu calmed down, knowing that he had to take care of his younger brother's face, and returned to Si Ye's office before he got angry: "You are together again? Who was thrown away for the New Year's Eve? Who said it himself? gone?"

Si Ye was surprisingly calm, "Brother, he and I are just a normal cooperative relationship now. We urgently need a photographer, and he is the most suitable."

"What annoys me the most is that you use work as an excuse!"

"There is no excuse. If you don't believe me, you can ask Sister Xing. He is indeed the best choice."

Si Yu paced irritably, "And then? What do you think when the cooperation is over? Why did he leave? Why did he come back now?"

Shino remained silent.

"Are you the kind of person who comes and goes when you are called?" Si Yu became more and more annoyed, why his brother was bullied like this by an outsider, "He leaves when he doesn't want to stay, and comes back when he wants to? "

"Brother, that's not the case..." Si Ye had a headache.

"You are still explaining to him! I don't think you two have a working relationship at all! What kind of photography does he know?"

"Stop it!" Si Ye shouted suddenly: "It's not what you think!"

Si Yu was taken aback, realizing that what he had said was a little too much.

"Brother." Si Ye calmed down and put his head in his hands, "This is between me and him, don't worry about it, okay?"

Now Si Yu is determined to rush out and beat Jin Zhongshan to the hospital, but Si Ye begged him like this, what can he do?

The small meeting between the designers and photographers was still going on, Si Yu ordered the legal team like dynamite, and left angrily.

The shooting took a total of three days, not including post-production time.

Si Ye has been staying at the scene, but his energy is often not concentrated.

The time he yelled with Si Yu seemed to ignite a corner of the burden accumulated in his heart.They exploded dully, waiting for the real explosion.

On the last day, the shooting ended smoothly, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Bai Xiaoye was the happiest: "Brother Ye, eat hot pot!"

Jin Chongshan was packing up the camera and looked over upon hearing the sound.

Si Ye said: "I won't go, I want to do a job."

Bai Xiao is also a little regretful, "I understand, I understand, you have to go out to play after rushing. Take more pictures, Brother Ye."

Si Ye walked quickly to the garage, and when he opened the door, he was blocked by a hand.

He turned abruptly.

It's Jin Zhongshan.

Suppressing the depression that kept torturing him, he asked calmly, "What's the matter?"

"Are you going to Xinjiang?"

Shino frowned.

Jin Chongshan said, "I'll take you to the Duku Highway."

Last year and this year, the fragmented images overlapped in an unstructured way.

He said expectantly: "Brother, let's go to Duku Highway!"

Jin Chongshan said, "I'll take you to Kuqa."

He had already given up, he didn't want this relationship anymore, he didn't want to be with him anymore, why did Jin Chongshan come back and say to him: "I'll take you to the Duku Highway."

The suppressed thing finally got out of control, Si Ye's voice was very soft but trembling: "What are we?"

Jin Zhongshan wanted to wrap his arms around his shoulders, "Siye, I can't let go..."

"I can't let it go, but what can I do!" Si Ye waved it away vigorously, his emotions completely exploded, "Don't you want me? If you can't let it go, then should I let it go? How do you answer when I say I can't let it go? I?"

Jin Chongshan hugged Si Ye, and Si Ye struggled, but he didn't let go.

Si Ye was exhausted from struggling, and gradually became silent.

"I will stay with you in Chengdu." Jin Zhongshan patted him on the back, "Sino, I can be your model, your photographer. I can also follow you when you are on a business trip."

"I'm not the same as before. Last year I didn't even know what hanger to buy, now I can help you."

"Sino..."

Si Ye interrupted suddenly, "Then I want to go to Kashgar?"

Jin Chongshan paused.

Si Ye shook his head with a wry smile, "Look, you have this kind of reaction again. You have a burden."

"Do you think that I went to Kashgar with you to destroy my career? I said that is where I found my inspiration, I said that I came back to life in Pamir, and I said that I need it there! Did you not You thought I was just teasing you?"

Jin Chongshan's lips twitched.

"I didn't! I'm telling the truth."

Tears fell down with a patter, and Si Ye realized that he had lost his composure, and quickly raised his hand to wipe them away.

It was so embarrassing.

He thought, let Jin Chongshan be more respectable, because he himself is the one who is disrespectful now.

"Brother Jin, you became a model, studied photography, and later in your studies, are you doing it for me?" He asked softly, "You came to Chengdu for me too?"

Jin Chongshan nodded.

"Is this a bondage to you?"

"No."

"Then I went to Kashgar for you, why do you always think that you tied me up and ruined me?"

Si Ye took a deep breath, raised his face halfway, and held back his tears.

"Brother Jin, let me ask you again. I once thought of a name for the store in Kashgar. It's called 'Wilder Heart Power'. One day in the future, if I want to open this store, will you still have the burden?"

The two stood in the empty garage, looking into each other's eyes.

Time seems to have passed for a long time, Jin Zhongshan hugged Siye again, "I know everything."

"Sino, I figured it out."
