Fall in love with summer flamingos

On this day, Su Yangxia was reading a script on the set, and Xu Huai had arranged for him to star in an urban idol drama.

He played the male lead, No. NNNN, and had about ten minutes of lines in the entire drama.

He plays the young boss who sells fruits downstairs in the male protagonist's community.

The fruit seller is a bit sloppy. He wears a small vest and flip-flops every day. He is a northerner with a bit of a ruffian personality.

Su Yangxia read the script so seriously that he didn't even notice the sweat dripping from his forehead.

Zhou Mengna looked at Su Yangxia with great heartache. He wiped Su Yangxia's sweat with a tissue, unscrewed a bottle of water and handed it to Su Yangxia:

"Brother, drink some water."

Zhou Meng was holding a plastic fan distributed by the men's hospital on the roadside in one hand and fanning Su Yangxia.

Su Yangxia nodded and said, "Okay, thank you."

Su Yangxia took the water, took a sip, and put it aside. He continued to read the script, muttering softly to himself, reciting the lines he would be going through later over and over again.

Zhou Meng was very depressed and fanned himself so hard that the broken fan was almost broken by him:

"What did Xu Huai think when he gave you this role?"

"What's wrong?" Su Yangxia saw Zhou Meng's eyes.

He looked down at the bi-strap vest on his body and the flip-flops on his feet.

Zhou Meng said with dissatisfaction: "It's so hot and you are sitting here under the scorching sun and sweating.

Everyone is inside using the air conditioner. It's July, the hottest time of the year in City A."

Su Yangxia smiled and comforted Zhou Meng: "It's okay, isn't this almost finished? These are the last two scenes."

Su Yangxia looked at the director, who was sitting under a parasol, wearing a straw hat, holding a walkie-talkie on his thigh in one hand.

The director looked at the camera intently, and talked seriously with the assistant director and the male lead next to him about the filming situation.

"Wow, everyone come and have some milk tea. Mr. Gu bought milk tea for the whole group."

A female staff member shouted to everyone.

Upon hearing this, a group of people stood up and ran over there, stretching their heads to squeeze in to get the milk tea.

Su Yangxia was still staring at the director in a trance and didn't hear the noise.

It was not until a shadow appeared beside him, blocking the sun, that he looked up and saw Gu Shiye standing in front of him.

Zhou Meng stood there in a daze holding the fan. He looked up and saw Mr. Gu and stood up immediately.

Gu Shiye handed two cups of jasmine tea to Zhou Meng and said, "Go and give them to the director and assistant director."

Zhou Meng took the thing, nodded, and trotted towards the director.

He also turned around and looked at Gu Shiye and Su Yangxia curiously.

Gu Shiye glanced at the stool Zhou Meng had just sat on, frowned despite the discomfort, and sat down. He looked at Su Yangxia and asked:

"Why are you always in a daze? Can't you hear such a loud noise?"

Su Yangxia slowly came back to her senses and looked at him: "Oh, I was just thinking about the lines and didn't notice, why are you here?"

"Just passing by." Gu Shiye looked at the director over there.

The director held up the jasmine tea that Zhou Meng had just handed over and gave Gu Shiye a polite smile.

Gu Shiye retracted his gaze and continued to look at Su Yangxia and said, "By the way, come and see how the filming is going."

"The hero and heroine are over there."

Su Yangxia pointed at Gu Shiye, who glanced over there and then looked away.

He looked at Su Yangxia, who was wearing a white, worn and yellowed prop vest, black shorts, and a pair of flip-flops.

He even deliberately smeared some dust on his toes, and painted his body and face a little black, looking like a Chinese-African mixed-race person.

Gu Shiye's eyes moved to Su Yangxia's brow bone. The scar was still there. It was not obvious from a distance, but it was very easy to see when they met face to face.

When Gu Shiye saw the scar, his heart couldn't help but feel sad again.

Su Yangxia looked at Shi Ye as if he was assessing the value of a commodity.

He lowered his head somewhat embarrassedly, and Gu Shiye reached out and pinched his chin to prevent him from lowering his head.

“They are all human beings.”

Su Yangxia felt embarrassed when he pinched her chin. She looked around and said anxiously.

After a pause, he continued, "This will affect your image."

Gu Shiye let go of his hand, looked into his eyes and said expressionlessly:

“My image is determined by my identity.”

Su Yangxia was feeling embarrassed and was wondering how to get him to stop touching her in such a situation.

The director appeared at this time like an emergency responder.

The director held the loudspeaker and shouted towards Su Yangxia, "Su Yexia, get ready. It's your turn."

Su Yangxia nodded to the director, looked at Gu Shiye and said:

"Then I'll go."

Gu Shiye nodded, his eyes following the man who was dressed shabbily and painted in black.

Su Yangxia quickly ran to the fruit stall, then found her seat and nodded to the director.

The director glanced at the other staff members present and saw that they were ready, then made an OK gesture.

"ACTION." The director shouted with a loudspeaker.

Gu Shiye sat here under the scorching sun, watching the director shout cut again and again, and watching Su Yangxia being scolded by the director.

The director stood beside Su Yangxia and shouted loudly, his saliva flying in the air:

"I've told you many times, you're playing a northerner, your expression needs to have that energy. Does your expression look like it? Does it look like it?"

"Director, I understand. I'll do it again."

Su Yangxia nodded and blinked and said apologetically.

"Look like a scoundrel, you know? Don't just smile, show that arrogance."

The director glanced at Gu Shiye, calmed down a bit and spoke in a slightly softer tone.

Su Yangxia bent over apologetically and nodded repeatedly, his face full of apology.

The staff around him looked at him helplessly and shook their heads.

Some people had a hint of contempt on their faces, and were pouting while talking to the people next to them.

Gu Shiye watched him here for more than half an hour, and he was scolded for almost twenty minutes.

A ruffian-looking northerner, carefree and unrestrained, isn't this what Su Yangxia used to be like?

Why did he disappear now? He didn't even get angry when being scolded like that.

Gu Shiye felt a pang of anxiety in his heart. The previous Su Yangxia was like a landmine that would explode if stepped on.

Su Yangxia is now like a damp firecracker. No matter how hard you throw it, it won't make a sound. Why did it become like this?

Gu Shiye felt uncomfortable watching this. His agent had arranged all sorts of messy roles for him. Wasn't there any role that suited his temperament?

He was made to bask in the sun here, and his skin was painted black and looked weird, and he was scolded by the director all the time.

Su Yangxia finally passed the test on the last try. He looked like a deflated ball. He walked over from the fruit stall with a droopy face and slowly sat down on the stool.

Zhou Meng immediately ran over and got a cup of milk tea and handed it to him:

"Brother, take a sip to cool down."

"Thank you." Su Yangxia took the milk tea in a daze.

Zhou Meng picked up the cheap fan that had no wind and started fanning him again.

Gu Shiye frowned and looked at Su Yangxia, whose face was covered in sweat. Zhou Meng caught the boss's gaze and immediately took out a tissue to wipe Su Yangxia's sweat.

After wiping it off, the foundation on the forehead was rubbed off, revealing the fair skin underneath. Zhou Meng couldn't help laughing:

"Brother, you're too white. Is it okay if the makeup gets rubbed off?"

Su Yangxia shook her head: "It's okay, this is the only match today, we can leave after a short rest."

Zhou Meng fanned himself softly and muttered, "What a shame! The crew is filming your scenes in the afternoon, yet they let you come here to dry out in the morning. They're really bullying me."

"It's okay, you won't feel tired just sitting here." Su Yangxia comforted Zhou Meng: "Don't fan me, you're tired too."

Gu Shiye suddenly stood up and walked more than ten meters away to make a phone call.

Gu Shiye should be talking about work again. He always has this expression when things don't go well at work.

Su Yangxia looked at him with a frown and an unhappy face, and came to this conclusion in her heart.

"Let's go."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Shiye walked over and looked down at him and said.

Su Yangxia couldn't open her eyes due to the sun, and she looked at him with great effort:

"Wait, I'm going to the bathroom."

"Brother, I'm going too. I'll accompany you." Zhou Meng pulled Su Yangxia up, and the two of them walked towards the bathroom.

Su Yangxia used something similar to makeup remover on the sink to wipe her face casually, washed it, and walked into the bathroom cubicle.

"Hey, have you seen Mr. Gu?" Girl A's voice came.

"I saw it. It seems that Mr. Gu is here to look for Su Yexia." The voice of girl B was also heard.

"Could that Su Yexia be Mr. Gu's new lover?" said girl A.

"I don't know. Didn't Mr. Gu have several meals with that Lu Ziyou last year?" said girl B.

"Lu Ziyou is a top male star after all, and this Su Yexia can't even act. We filmed such a simple scene just now for so long, and I don't know where she came from." Girl A said.

"He's quite handsome. It seems Mr. Gu likes boys of this type." Girl B said.

"I was just visiting Mr. Gu for fun, and my attitude towards him wasn't very good," said girl A.

Zhou Meng was listening in the cubicle and was furious. He kicked the door open and shouted at the two girls, "Aren't you afraid of your tongue getting rotten if you gossip about me?"

Hearing the sound, the two women turned around and looked at Zhou Meng.

"Hey...isn't this Su Yexia's assistant? Why are you so anxious? You're just a salaried employee." Girl A said.

Girl B also glanced at him and said, "Exactly. When he's done with his movies, you'll have to find someone else to serve him. What kind of loyalty are you showing?"

Zhou Meng was so angry that his hair exploded: "I don't allow you to say anything about Brother Ye Xia. You gossips are just talking about others behind their backs."

The two girls opened their mouths and raised their chins, wanting to say something, but they were suddenly stunned. Both girls looked embarrassed for a moment:

"Gu, Mr. Gu."

"Who are you working for?" Gu Shiye narrowed his eyes and looked down at the two men.

The two girls panicked. One of them looked at Gu Shiye cautiously and said, "I'm Li Nianyu's assistant."

Another girl said in a trembling voice: "I, I am Zhong Yu's assistant."

Gu Shiye said in a deep voice with an expressionless face, "Go write your resignation letter yourself. The company doesn't hire people who gossip."

The two girls wanted to make some requests, but Gu Shiye glared at them back. The two of them walked away quickly in panic.

Zhou Meng looked at the sharp Mr. Gu and was fired after saying a few words.

He stood there trembling, fortunately he was not the kind of person who liked to gossip about other artists behind their backs.

"Where are the people?" Gu Shiye asked Zhou Meng.

Zhou Meng said "oh" and pointed to the compartment: "It should still be inside."

Gu Shiye took two steps forward and stood at the door, looking at the compartment inside:

"come out."

Su Yangxia sat on the toilet inside, her butt so heavy that she couldn't move.

"Come out." Su Yangxia heard the voice again, this time even colder.

He stood up slowly, opened the door and walked out slowly. He looked like a thief who had been caught for doing something wrong.

"Are personal problems difficult to solve? You've been here for so long." Gu Shiye asked, staring at his dark face.

The person in front of me was blinking, revealing the whites of his eyes, and the white spot on his forehead looked particularly funny.

Su Yangxia said hesitantly, "Yeah."

Gu Shiye glanced at Zhou Meng and said, "Take this off his face."

Zhou Meng nodded vigorously without being humble or arrogant, took Su Yangxia's arm and walked to the sink.

He squeezed some makeup remover oil into his palms, rubbed them, and began to rub Su Yangxia's face with both hands.

Su Yangxia's eyes were blurred by the makeup remover oil, and red bloodshot appeared in her eyes instantly, and her face wrinkled.

Zhou Meng apologized hurriedly and tried to wipe it with his hands, but the more he wiped, the more blurry it became. Su Yangxia's tears flowed out, and a white groove appeared on her face.

"I come."

Gu Shiye saw that Zhou Meng was becoming more and more unreliable, so he took two steps and walked up to Su Yangxia.

Zhou Meng tactfully gave up his seat, quickly pulled out a makeup remover towel, wet it, and handed it to Gu Shiye.

Gu Shiye took the makeup remover towel, opened his eyes and wiped them gently.

Seeing Su Yangxia's timid look, I couldn't help but say:

"So useless."

Su Yangxia opened her eyes with great effort and glanced at him: "Well, it's my bad acting."

"That's not what I'm talking about."

Gu Shiye's voice came out from his chest. He felt that Su Yangxia always didn't understand what he was saying recently.

Su Yangxia frowned slightly, as if recalling something:

"Then what did you say?"

Gu Shiye's hand was a little stronger, and it hurt his face a little:

"When others say something about you, won't you refute it?"

Only then did Su Yangxia realize what Gu Shiye was talking about.

His expression relaxed a little and he said calmly, "Isn't what they said true?"

"Unload yourself and come to me in the car."

Gu Shiye felt like he was going to be choked to death by him, and he wanted to cover Su Yangxia's mouth if he said one more word.

Gu Shiye threw the makeup remover towel on the table and turned away.

Zhou Meng looked at Gu Shiye's back as he left and felt a chill on his back.

He silently picked up the wet wipes on the table and said, "Brother, Mr. Gu is really moody. It's scary."

Su Yangxia grabbed the makeup remover towel from his hand and began to wipe it herself in front of the mirror. After a pause, she said, "He wasn't like this before."

Zhou Meng seemed to be eager to gossip, so he approached Su Yangxia and asked:

"So what was Mr. Gu like before?"

Su Yangxia paused her movements and tried to recall for a moment: "Before, I was gentle, patient, and good-tempered."

"Ah~ Why did Mr. Gu become like this? Did he get upset by something?" Zhou Meng said with great regret.

He always felt that their president was tall and handsome, but too cold, with a bad temper and little patience, and he never smiled.

"Maybe."

Su Yangxia took a breath and felt stuffy in her chest, dizzy and didn't want to think about it anymore.

After Zhou Meng waited for Su Yangxia to finish washing her face, he said goodbye and left.

She refused to go with Su Yangxia to get in Gu Shiye's car, and she took a taxi and slipped away with a bunch of things.
