substitute actor

After taking a careless shower, Jin Siyan sat on the sofa, listening to the sound of water in the bathroom while reading emails, staring down at the screen of the mobile phone, his eyes a little distracted.

After a while, the sound of the water stopped, and a moment later there was the sound of the door opening.

Yan Ge was afraid that Jin Siyan had already fallen asleep, so he moved cautiously, not wanting to make a sound, but when he opened the door, he saw the man nestling in the corner of the sofa with a cigarette between his slender fingers, and raised his head when he saw him come out.

The moment their eyes met, Yan Ge silently sighed.

He really didn't understand Jin Siyan.

"Are you still asleep?" Yan Ge walked over.

"En." Jin Siyan responded, put away the phone, leaned over to wipe out the cigarette butt, "I have something to ask you."

Seeing his pale expression, Yan Ge's heart skipped a beat for no reason, but his face still didn't show it, "Ask."

Jin Siyan didn't ask immediately, but looked down at the coffee table in front of him, thought for a while, and then said, "Your contract with Coty is about to expire, right?"

Thinking of the contract paper he had casually placed on the hanging chair in his mind, Yan Ge regretted it for a moment.

Such an embarrassing thing, just let him see it.

"Come on." Yan Ge replied vaguely, trying to make himself seem indifferent, "I didn't pay much attention."

Jin Siyan twitched the corner of his mouth, as if smiling, but it was fleeting. He didn't know whether it was contempt or something else, and he didn't know whether he believed what he said.

"Then do you want to..." Jin Siyan paused to think for a while, and said directly, "Sign under Ansheng?"

"An..." Yan Ge was a little startled, his eyes widened slightly, "Your family?"

Jin Siyan was noncommittal, just looked up at him.

After a while, Jin Siyan shook his head again and stood up from the sofa, "I just asked casually. Of course it would be better if you have your own plans."

After the words fell, she smiled very alienatedly, and passed him by, "Sleep, good night."

"I—" Yan Ge stopped him, but didn't know what to say, looked into Jin Siyan's eyes, and pinched his palm calmly, "Thank you, but there's no need."

It will be a matter of time before Coty terminates the contract with him, and Yan Ge actually has no plan on what to do when the time comes.His situation is so complicated, he is already very content with being able to get to this day safely, and he should not ask the company to do anything for him.

What's more, he doesn't mean that he has a passion for acting, and he will not give up unless he makes a career in the circle.

He's long past the point where he can talk about desire.

It's just that sometimes he still feels uneasy when he is free. After all, he can't do anything except acting.

It's just that you won't starve to death, right?He's not that incompetent.

He knew very well that with An Sheng's strength, even if he was not well-known after signing, he would never treat him badly. He also knew very well that Jin Siyan knew his situation and would not sit idly by.

It's just a contract, and Jin Siyan can settle it with a single sentence. He has never been stingy in giving such cheap charity.

But Yan Ge didn't want to accept his favor all the time, as if he was no different from the person who had been with Jin Siyan several times.

Although in Jin Siyan's eyes, Yan Ge is just a fresh friend for a while, or it is known that the two were classmates, so they are very kind.

Jin Siyan treats him well, he is grateful and content, but this does not mean that Jin Siyan and him are from the same world.It doesn't mean that he is qualified to benefit from Jin Siyan.

Yan Ge thought that he was not so shameless.

Even - in the worst case - Jin Siyan thought of him that way, he still wanted to try his best not to make himself look too cheap.

He didn't want Jin Siyan to think that his concern and care for him was out of some kind of profit-seeking purpose.Although not pure, Yan Ge never wanted anything from him.

He doesn't even expect his feelings to be reciprocated.

After all, there are many things that have not been responded to, and this one is really not bad.

"You have helped me enough, I really don't need to bother you anymore." Yan Ge smiled and joked at himself, "It sounds like I don't know what's good, but I really appreciate your kindness, thank you .”

His throat was tight and his fingertips were trembling a little. Yan Ge tried his best to restrain his voice so that he could be more confident.

Jin Siyan didn't seem to see anything wrong with him. Hearing what he said, he closed his eyes noncommittally. After a while, he just nodded, "Yes, I see."

"Then... good night." Yan Ge said.

"Yes." Jin Siyan replied and closed the door.

The living room fell silent.

Looking at the closed guest room door, the stiff smile on Yan Ge's face gradually faded, replaced by unspeakable loneliness.

Sighing lightly, Yan Ge raised his hand, rubbed his fingertips against the tip of his nose, and muttered to himself in a soft and low voice,

"It would be better sooner."

It would have been nice to have it sooner.

If you meet Jin Siyan sooner, when he is not so down and out, maybe everything will be different.

At that time, my father was not dead, my mother was not in prison, and my career was in full swing. Although I was very busy, I was also extremely fulfilled.

He is younger and has all the capital to shine. He can be arrogant, conniving, and allow himself to fall in love with anyone.

If he saw Jin Siyan again at that time, he would not hesitate like now.

After staring at the cold white floor for a while, Yan Ge laughed, with absurdity in his voice.

"how can that be possible."

If he had seen Jin Siyan sooner, he might still have been cowardly and evasive, no matter how successful he was, no matter how much he was loved, no matter how unrestrained he was.

Having a crush on someone will still bring out the secret inferiority complex in the deepest part of your heart that you don't want to admit the most.

He knew Jin Siyan early enough, he had known him since he was sixteen or seventeen years old, and now it has been more than ten years, how could he be earlier?

But he never opened his mouth, and he can already explain everything.

It is he who is weak.

It's really unfair to push all the faults to time.

Yan Ge laughed at himself, his eyes were unbelievably dry, standing in the living room so cold that his legs were stiff, he slowly came back to his senses, dragged his chilly body to the bedroom, sighed extremely unwillingly and compromisingly,

"...a worthless thing."

·

The next morning, Jin Siyan left, and Yan Ge didn't even hear him get up. When he woke up around eight o'clock, the guest room was already empty.

The news was received half an hour ago. Jin Siyan said that he still had work to do, so he left first.

Yan Ge stared blankly at the words on the screen, and after a long while, he typed [OK].

I went to wash up in a daze, I had slept for a long time, but I always felt tired, especially when I opened the door with anticipation in the morning and saw a clean and tidy empty bed, my heart was uncontrollably empty.

I thought we could meet again in the morning.

Yan Ge sighed softly and wiped the water off his face.

Today's announcement is not too busy, just go to the set at noon, Yan Ge dawdled for a while before packing up and going out.

The assistant was very busy today, so he couldn't follow him, and Yan Ge generously let him go, anyway, he was more comfortable by himself.

Thinking of this, Yan Ge felt a little funny again.

When I didn’t have an assistant before, I felt that it was inconvenient to do anything, and I was wronged and unwilling. I had to solve everything by myself. Looking at those leading actors and leading actresses, I wished I could match four of them while serving tea and water. There was always a contrast in my heart It's sad, but now I have a diligent assistant, and I don't think it's necessary.

Are people so cheap?Or is he just living the understudy life for too long?

Yan Ge couldn't figure it out.

Lock the door, put away the key, turn around, and from the corner of your eye, you can see a shadow flashing by in the green belt and a flashing light that is hard to ignore.

Suddenly, the word "paparazzi" flashed in Yan Ge's mind. It was strange and familiar, but he felt that he was not popular enough to be photographed by paparazzi.

I took two steps forward, but it was a little slow, and there was nothing behind the low bushes, and there was no trace at all.

He licked his lips for some unknown reason, Yan Ge was confused and couldn't think of a reason, and was about to forget about it, when he caught a glimpse of a street light from the corner of his eye, Jin Siyan's figure suddenly appeared in his mind.

After a pause, Yan Ge was surprised by his guess.

After thinking about it for a while, he took out his phone and sent a message to Jin Siyan.

[Yan Ge: When I first went out, I noticed that there seemed to be paparazzi near my house. 】

Jin Siyan seemed to be using his mobile phone too, so he replied quickly, 【? 】

[Yan Ge: It seems to be secretly filming. 】

[Jin Siyan: Could it be an illegitimate child? 】

【Yan Ge: I don't know, but】

The cursor froze behind "but" and flickered for a long time, Yan Ge's fingertips curled slightly, and his downcast eyes were a little flustered.

After a while, it was quickly completed.

【Yan Ge: But I'm worried about the fact that you stayed at my house yesterday. If it has affected you, I would like to apologize to you first. I didn't think carefully. 】

Although last time, when he went to Jin Siyan's house, Jin Siyan asked him to recognize him generously, so as to stabilize his position in the crew, but this time it was different, this time chasing to the door of the house, the purpose was obviously more targeted and sharper.

Yan Ge was a little worried that it would have a bad influence on Jin Siyan.

Jin Siyan didn't speak for a long time, and it took about 5 minutes before a message came.

[Don't worry, I will help you pay attention. 】

In a word, Yan Ge's heart tightened when he saw it.

He was worried about Jin Siyan, not asking him for help!

Why do things always turn out like this!

Yan Ge scratched his hair in frustration, feeling even more anxious.He didn't want the relationship between Jin Siyan and him to become more and more blurred, like Jin's bed partner, and even he had never had anything with Jin Siyan at all, and always took advantage of him, always making Yan Ge feel that he was eating soft food.

He was afraid that Jin Siyan would think that he was a professional and soft food.

Sighing, Yan Ge sent a few words sourly, 【I'm just worried that it will affect you, you don't need to do anything for me anymore. 】

After sending the message, the car just arrived, Yan Ge sniffed, pulled up the mask, and got in the car.

Just as he sat down, Jin Siyan's news came in, and his phone vibrated.

Click to open, there are only a few words.

Jin Siyan: [I am also worried about you. 】
