Lofty future

The shooting on the first day was considered smooth. All the planned scenes were finished in the evening, which was less time than expected.Chi Xue impromptu organized a small reading, and the members were all actors who played opposite me.

It is said to be reading, in fact, it is to let me know people.

I was replaced by him temporarily, and I came in a hurry. I have not participated in their previous activities, so it is necessary to get acquainted with each other.

Among them, the first person who needs to get to know well is the teacher Chen Zuoda who plays Guan Shan's father and my lover.If it weren't for Chi Xue, I would never have thought in my life that I would meet someone I've seen on TV since childhood.

This teacher has no part in the show today. I heard that he is going to play.When I entered the door, I brought a breath of fresh air from the shower, with a mask on my face, a hearty laugh, and my eyes fixed on my face through the mask.

"Are you the new Xiaobai?"

I've only worked as Gu Bai for a day, and I almost didn't realize it, I got up a little hesitantly: "...Yes, yes, Teacher Chen, hello!"

Chen Zuoda came over and walked around me, looking me up and down with great interest.In the end, she turned her head and spoke to Chi Xue.

"I'm wondering, you're a new director and you're making your debut, why do you keep finding people who don't understand anything?"

The whole day of rehearsal and filming today, including the previous audition, I have been praised all the time, this is the first time I have heard different evaluations, and my ears are really pricked.

But what he said is reasonable, and people are also qualified, so I have nothing to refute.It's just that I just said hello, not only did I not get a response, but I was also commented like this, which is somewhat embarrassing.

"Teach me what I don't understand, it's easy to look like I can do it!" Chi Xue replied with a smile, approaching us, looking at Chen Zuoda, but speaking to me.

"Ah Cheng, this is Mr. Chen, you know him, we grew up watching his plays, we should all learn from him."

This was intended to help me get out of the deadlock. I had no reason to be ungrateful, so I complimented Chen Zuoda a few more times.He looked quite coaxable, squinting his eyes to listen to me, and then took off the mask after listening.

"Anyway, there is no need to choose the image of Xin Xiaobai. It is better than the one you looked for last time. I didn't say that last time. I have a greasy mouth at a young age. I was crushed by him in my fifties. pressure."

In his fifties, he couldn't really tell from the face and figure in front of him.If I hadn't known this person through the screen since I was a child, I guess he might be in his 30s.

As I thought about it in my heart, almost the same words had already been uttered by another actor on the scene.When Chen Zuoda heard this, his face became more joyful, and he sat down next to Chi Xue.

"Come on, let's read the script and see what scenes our great director has revised overnight."

Chi Xue touched my arm with her fingertips, then pointed to her left: "Come over to my side."

Chen Zuoda over there just sat down, glanced at him, and said half jokingly and half seriously: "Axue, you take good care of our new Xiaobai—come on, let me see what you are capable of."

The second half of the sentence was addressed to me. This was the first time he took the initiative to look at me directly today.

I looked over and saw him smiling and his eyes open, as if all his likes and dislikes were not worth covering up.

My heart was slightly shaken—it turned out that people who do art are really a little different from the numb sentient beings.

The reading went on until after seven o'clock, and my role was almost completely finished. A table of five or six people moved their positions and went to the restaurant Chi Xue had booked for dinner.

I'm not a social person by nature, but after so many years of working together, my ability in this area is not bad.Especially being able to drink, relying on this trick has won business for Zhan Yunpeng when he was at the border.

Active drinking is often viewed as enthusiasm and cooperation.I didn't hold back on this meal, I changed cups and cups, and I didn't waste all that Chi Xue arranged for me.

As the night deepened, Chen Zuoda hugged a girl and left first.

I noticed that it was the actor who played the first scene with me during the day. Her character was called Shanshan, and I called her Shanshan all day long.

But I remember that Chen Zuoda was married long ago.

"Leave them alone." Chi Xue approached me at some point, resting her head on the back of my chair, "Ms. Chen is good at everything, but I can't control myself."

I am silent.After all, he is not familiar with Chen Zuoda, so it is not appropriate to discuss behind his back.

Seeing that Chen Zuoda had withdrawn, the other two people in the box also came to bid farewell to Chi Xue, but I silently watched Chi Xue dismiss them.

When he was talking, I seemed to be seeing a hallucination - this was another Chi Xue that I was not familiar with.

It is true that everyone behaves differently on different occasions, but it is rare to see someone as different as Chi Xue who is almost like a different person.

After everyone left, he seemed to have let go of his strength, lying on the dining table, and ignored calls from his mobile phone.

It was an unsigned call, and the source might be unknown, so it wouldn't be a big deal if he didn't answer me, he just waited for the other party to hang up.

However, the phone was disconnected, and soon called again.

"Chi Xue." I called him and pushed the phone closer to him.

He exposed half of his face from his arms, and glanced across the phone screen with an unhappy expression.When the other party dialed in for the third time, he finally swiped the answer button.

"Chi Xue—" There was a somewhat exasperated roar from inside, and I recognized it immediately, it was Zeng Yuhan.

Chi Xue sat up, her face was ugly, and her tone was deliberately indifferent: "What's the matter?"

"You lost something to me. It's so annoying. You're such a white-eyed wolf! He's dishonest after only a few days back in Beijing. Thanks to me, I contacted Shanlan!"

"Eldest young master, let me be clear, Lin Zitong was not given to you by me, but you wanted to take it away yourself."

"That's not the point!"

"Okay, let's get to the point."

"I don't want this person anymore!"

"I don't need it either."

"..." There was a pause over there for a while, bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang Got into trouble with you."

Hearing this, Chi Xue glanced at me quickly.

I know the time, get up and prepare to walk away.As soon as he stepped out of the seat, the corner of his clothes was grabbed behind him.Looking back, Chi Xue looked at me with a drunken begging look.

I instinctively thumped in my heart, and immediately told myself to hold on—this bastard bastard, his acting skills are as good as changing his skin, and to believe him is to believe in ghosts.

"Don't go." He said with his mouth.

The corner of the clothes was still being held tightly by him, and it was indeed difficult for me to walk.I had no choice but to sit down again, moving slowly, trying my best not to make any noise.

Chi Xue looked back at her phone in satisfaction: "Eldest young master, you are no longer a child, you have to count on what you say. Let's settle the matter. If you don't get angry, it should be the way to return to the bridge according to the normal process. right?"

"I know, but I don't want to. Chi Xue," the other side took a choked breath, "otherwise, let's be friends, don't you say that I'm a fun person? You treat me like Jing Chen, I Happy too!"

The young master's words were mournful, he tried to be playful but failed, and it sounded rather pitiful.

I was a little curious about Chi Xue's reaction, I raised my eyes to look at him, but met his gaze.

He seemed to be looking at me all the time, and his eyes met. He laughed and said to Zeng Yuhan, "It depends on my mood."

After all, hang up the line.

After listening to this phone call, their relationship status seems to be different from what I have heard before.How can a benefactor be so weeping and crying, just begging for the option of "befriending".

"Ah Cheng, are you curious? If you are curious, just ask me, and I will answer you everything."

As if seeing through my question, Chi Xue looked over with her head propped on one hand, her smile curved like a villain in a child's stick figure.

I found that I really still have a shallow understanding of acting. No matter how wide my eyes look now, I can't tell whether the innocent smiling face in front of me is just acting to mislead me, or whether it is true emotion.

But it undoubtedly has a restraining force on me, at least, I can't turn around and leave immediately.

"It's late, let's go back, we have to get up early tomorrow."

"Xiang Cheng!"

With a wave of his hand, he grabbed my already loose T-shirt and stretched it out.

"Can't you care about me? How did I start acting after I left home? Who did I meet, what scenes did I make, what grades did I get, and... also, what hardships did I suffer?" He said in a low voice. Head, muttering, "Don't you even ask? You didn't treat me like this before."

"..."

He whimpered like a child, drunk but not drunk, acting like a play.

Anger and depression surged in my heart at the same time, and the combination of the two made me extremely uncomfortable, so I wanted to pick him up and fight.

But if these emotions are really vented out wantonly, I'm afraid I won't be able to continue working tomorrow.I had no choice but to bear with it.

"It's up to you. If you don't go, I will go. I don't want to be murdered by you tomorrow." After speaking, I opened his fingers and walked towards the door of the box.

"Ah Cheng!" After a while, he came up from behind and followed me with a little distance.

It was late at night, and this restaurant, which is used to hosting celebrities, was so quiet that it seemed to be closed. We walked through the long corridor without meeting anyone.When I came to the parking lot in the backyard, someone greeted me at the door.

"Mr. Chi, the surrogate driver provided for you has arrived, and you can return immediately."

"I don't need a substitute driver, I have a driver!" Chi Xue turned to look at me, her eyes turned red at some point, at first glance she thought she was crying.

But I won't believe it.

"I can't, I've been drinking."

Chi Xue continued: "Okay, then we won't drive, let's go back."

"..."

Between the two, I am afraid that I look more sober. The hotel waiter cast his eyes on me: "Sir, what do you think? Do you want to cancel the driver?"

"Ah Cheng." Chi Xue called out from the shadows, and it sounded very clear.

He was leaning against the pillar of the porch like a shopkeeper throwing his hands away, most of his body was covered by shadows, only his two long legs were still in the light.There was still a smile on his face, and he looked at me lightly, as if everything followed me.

Maybe I was a little drunk, but I just followed him.

Late at night on the long street, we strolled like we were pressing the road when we were young.
