Stand-in Omega, he cleared the mark

Things are unpredictable, Liang Mo's promise to come back next week has become a empty promise.

Since the breakup, He Xize blocked all of Liang Mo's contact information.

He Xize suddenly realized that with the current relationship between the two of them, he had actually become passive.

If Liang Mo didn't show his presence in front of him, he would never be able to see him again.

On this day, after the day's filming was over and the filming was approaching, the atmosphere of the whole crew became more relaxed.

Since each actor's filming time is different, Zhong Wenhao invited the whole crew to dinner one week in advance.

After He Xize took off his makeup, he took Zhong Wenhao's car to the hotel where they had dinner together.

"Ah Ze, you have really worked hard during this period." In order to catch up with the summer release, Zhong Wenhao abruptly compressed the originally planned four-month shooting cycle into two and a half months.

He Xize, a 996 worker in the entertainment industry, said, "This is a normal standard for introversion."

He Xize tried his best, but it was really desperate.

Zhong Wenhao has seen him join the group seamlessly several times, asking for leave in the middle is not for rest, but to record variety shows or shoot commercials, etc.

In short, after two and a half years in the industry, He Xize's only vacation was the last Chinese New Year.

After so many days of continuous rotation, even Zhong Wenhao could hardly hold on, and He Xize seemed to be a normal person—but, He Xize NGed a few times today.

Zhong Wenhao tilted his head and saw that He Xize did not grab all the fragments to rest as usual.

He stared at the phone with a serious face, as if looking at an obscure encrypted file.

"Ah Ze." Zhong Wenhao called him softly, "Do you have something on your mind?"

"Ah?" He Xize turned to look at him, "Why do you ask such a question?"

Zhong Wenhao raised his hand and lightly tapped his forehead, "I think you haven't kept up with your state these two days."

"Every time there is a scene with intense emotional tension, it will be like this." He Xize smiled helplessly: "My own emotions are relatively reserved. If I don't get into the scene deeply enough, I won't perform well."

Zhong Wenhao did not pursue the matter of "entering the drama".

After going to the hotel, He Xize had no problem in order to show his state.

As the leading actor, he, along with director Zhong Wenhao, toasted from table to table, drinking every cup to the bottom.

He usually doesn't talk much, but tonight it was rare for him to be the atmosphere group, he talked a lot, and even gave out several big red envelopes to the crew.

In this way, after finally waiting for the official conclusion, He Xize only rested in the imperial capital for two days, and then flew to a southern city to start filming for the MC of the variety show.

Liang Mo was like a glimpse of the beautiful sky. Even when Liang Chu went home last month and his family went to the beach to play, Liang Mo was not seen in the photos in Moments.

But Liang Chu's words popped up from time to time, which made He Xize a little uneasy.

Liang Mo is not really terminally ill, he is dying.

Accidentally broke one morning.

He Xize's recording of programs often didn't end until early in the morning.

During the recording, his mobile phone and other communication equipment were kept by his assistant Xiaoyuan.

By the end of the day, it was two in the morning.He Xize was so sleepy that he didn't even want to talk. He went to sleep in the nanny's car, was woken up by Xiaoyuan in a daze, and returned to the hotel room with half-open eyes. He fell asleep without even taking a shower.

Therefore, he missed the last call from Liu Lan to him.

He Xize woke up with the alarm clock at 6 o'clock the next morning, only to find out that Liu Lan had called him three times after 10 o'clock last night.He was really too busy, and while walking to the bathroom, he planned to call Grandma Liu later in the car.

When he got into the nanny's car exhausted, he found that Liu Lan's call was answered by a middle-aged woman.

The other party first politely reported her family name as Liu Lan's personal care worker, and then euphemistically stated that Liu Lan passed away peacefully in the middle of the night last night.

This morning, when the nurse came to help her wash up as usual, she found that she had gone.

Not even a last word was given.

As for the three missed calls, it may be that she sensed something in the dark, and with the thought of not leaving any regrets, she called the little kid who had been dependent on each other for more than ten years.

But in the end, nothing was said.

Xu Meng's crying voice came from the other end of the phone. She asked who the caller was, and took the call.

"Aze... woo woo..." Xu Meng cried intermittently, cutting her words into several fragments, "My mother... she, she quietly left last night."

He Xize's throat tightened, he was choked with sobs, and before he could say a few words to comfort her, tears flowed down first.

Xu Meng cried and said, "I went to see her yesterday afternoon and had a fight with her. I was really unfilial."

Xu Meng went shopping yesterday, bought some autumn clothes for her mother, and went to see her impromptu.

Therefore, I overheard Liu Lan asking the nurse to run errands for her to buy a shroud.

Xu Meng was angry that her mother was always so suspicious. It was obvious that all indicators were normal in the physical examination last month.But Liu Lan said disillusionedly: "When people get old, they will die. Can't I choose a shroud I like for myself?"

"Mom, you always talk about being afraid of causing trouble for us, making us feel very disrespectful to you."

Xu Meng quarreled a few times, threw the clothes she had just bought on the ground, and left without looking back.

The sentence that accused her mother became the last sentence she said to her mother.

Xu Meng cried uncontrollably, and He Xize didn't know how the phone was disconnected in the end.

He asked the program team for leave, but he could only ask for tomorrow, and today he had to force himself to record the program with a smile on his face, and do some sand sculptures but games that can bring energy.

It's so hard to make money.

He really wanted to throw away his armor and immediately take one last look at Granny Liu.

Over the years, he has been like a perpetual motion machine, working hard to make money for his mother, his younger brother, and for his family to have a bite to eat.

But, has he ever lived for himself?

He Xize sat on an upturned chair, with a huge pool below.

Teammates deliberately answered wrongly for the sake of program effect.

He Xize had to accept the punishment. He bounced up in an instant, then threw it back and fell heavily into the pool.

The sound of gurgling water filled his ears, as if he had heard what Granny Liu had said to him——

"I just want to tell you that Ze is the most well-behaved kid I've ever seen."

"Aze won't be unloved, grandma has always liked you very much."

……

He Xize sank to the bottom of the water, using a pool of water to release the tears that had been held back for a day.

When he returned to Shencheng the next day, Grandma Liu's mourning hall had already been set up.

In front of the mourning hall, He Xize saw Liang Mo who had not seen him for a long time. He was wearing a black suit and knelt down with his relatives. He had no light in his eyes and stared blankly at the old man in the black and white photo.

People are gone.

The old area where they lived for decades was demolished.

In the past, He Xize always felt that time was still long and everyone had a bright future.

Until this moment, he suddenly realized something.

Xu Meng blamed herself and kept crying. In the end, He Xize helped her to the lounge.

Liang Mo and his three brothers and sisters are close relatives, and they will be on vigil tonight.

He Xize comforted Xu Meng and went back to rest before coming to the mourning hall.Thanks to Granny Liu's care in the early years, He Xize did not treat himself as an outsider.

He knelt beside Liang Mo, intending to watch the night with them.

Liang Chu turned her face to the side and glanced at He Xize. She clearly knew how tired He Xize was and often didn't get enough sleep.But she hesitated to speak, and after a long while, she finally said nothing.

At around 11 o'clock in the evening, someone Shanshan came late to say goodbye.

He Xize raised his eyes and looked over, slightly dazed—it was Meng Yi.

This Omega, who had been forcibly forgotten by him, reappeared.

Meng Yi rushed over and saw He Xize who was sitting next to Liang Mo at the family table, he was stunned at first, and then nodded at him as if relieved.

After Meng Yi left, he got up and left the mourning hall without speaking to Liang Mo.

He Xize knelt down for a long time, his legs were so numb that he almost lost consciousness.

He swayed slightly, wanting to move around to clear the blood.The back of the hand hanging by the side touched the person next to him imperceptibly.

It's really ice.

Liang Mo's hands were like ice cubes.

He Xize secretly turned his face at this moment, but Liang Mo also looked in his direction, and both of them were stunned.

Liang Mo's face turned pale again, and his eye sockets became deeper. He took a deep look at He Xize, and said softly, "Ah Ze, it's getting late, you should go back and rest first."

He Xize shook his head, determined not to leave.

"Yes, Aze, you are not relatives." Liang Chu couldn't help but said, "Hurry up and go back to rest."

He Xize felt particularly uncomfortable.

He and Liu Lan are indeed not related by blood, but he has always treated Liu Lan as his own grandmother.

Grandma Liu's last journey in the world, no matter what, he will finish it.

He Xize stubbornly refused to leave.

Liang Mo seemed to see what he was thinking. He winked at Liang Chu, raised his hand and lightly touched the back of He Xize's hand, and thanked him in a voice that only two people could hear.

The day of Grandma Liu's burial was sunny and the sea breeze hovered on the mountainside. They buried Grandma Liu and her husband together.

In this way, two people are no longer separated by yin and yang, and can never be separated.

After the funeral, He Xize returned home, although he hadn't closed his eyes for several days, he couldn't fall asleep anyway.

Sitting in the newly bought house after demolition, he couldn't find a sense of belonging.

He thought of all these years of inaction, and that sentence hit his heart again.

Have you ever lived for yourself?

Grandma Liu passed away, but she had a happy marriage and gave birth to a son and a daughter. They spread out and gathered together to die for her. She died without illness and pain, which is also a good death.

He Xize slept for a long time, and when he woke up, it was already the sunset of the next day.

He was the only one in the house, and he sat up drowsily, while the electric curtains slowly closed to both sides.

Outside the window are dimly lit human fireworks, noisy and lively.

But the surroundings were silent.

He Xize leaned on the bed with slightly bent fingers grasping the quilt, his eyes were out of focus, staring quietly out of the window.

For a moment, he realized the phrase "like the end of the world" that netizens said.

The sudden sound of the doorbell broke the silence of the evening.

He Xize stepped on the floor with bare feet, and walked to the door without haste. The moment he opened the door, he saw that familiar face.
