lingering for a hundred years

From the first day Chen Xi knew Han Zigao, he felt that the boy in front of him was not "simple".

Regardless of temperament, conversation, or behavior, they are very different from ordinary people.

He couldn't believe that this boy came from an ordinary family, especially Han Zigao was a super colossus.This identity is not simple.

And he was also a little curious about what kind of family Han Zigao was born in.

Since he wanted to work for Han Zigao, he had to live in Han Zigao's house at the request of the other party.Originally, Chen Xi was reluctant, but later found that Han Zigao's home was far away from the urban area, and it would take at least two hours to go back and forth. Finally, he gave up the idea of ​​struggling and agreed to the other party's arrangement.

However, when Chen Xi saw Han Zigao's "home", he was indeed surprised, because it was a home rather than a castle. In short, it was the kind of grand castle built in Morishan in Western European fairy tales. , Huge and gorgeous, he could hardly shape the splendor of this building.

Inside this building, there are also many maids and deacons.

He was sitting in the car, and through the glass, he could see colorful flowers one after another. Among the colorful flowers, there were countless men and women standing there cleaning, repairing plants, cleaning the glass of the outer wall, etc.

Chen Xila looked back and said to the person opposite in the car: "Is your house really lively?" The tone was so lukewarm that he couldn't understand what he meant.

When Han Zigao heard this, he just chuckled indifferently and said, "It's my father's perverted hobby. He likes to make a good house look like a nouveau riche."

"You don't like it?" Chen Xi raised his eyebrows, he seemed to hear that the other party didn't like this kind of lively "home".

"I only like the people I care about in my home. It's useless to have more people who don't matter." Han Zigao replied meaningfully, which was a bit surprising.

After he finished saying this, he kept staring at Chen Xi, as if he was expressing something.Looking at those black eyes, which reflected himself, they were pure and clean, but a little burning, which made Chen Xi's heart skip a beat.

Chen Xi wanted to say something, trying to break this inexplicably impetuous and somewhat embarrassed atmosphere, but he couldn't say a word.

Fortunately, while he was worrying, the car stopped and the door was opened.

When he got out of the car, he saw a man with gray hair and a friendly smile, dressed in the other person's clothes, he should be a housekeeper or something.

Sure enough, under the introduction of Han Zigao, the old man in front of him is called Butler He, who is the supervisor who manages all the employees here.

However, before Han Zigao finished his introduction, his phone rang, and he left in a hurry after he said a few words.

"Alas... the young master is still busy." Butler He said with emotion, and then his eyes shifted to Chen Xi.Since the meeting just now, Deacon He has been staring at him, with a look of surprise and inquiry, and has been watching him non-stop, as if he was a very rare animal, which made Chen Xi very uncomfortable.

Seemingly aware of Chen Xi's embarrassment, Butler He withdrew his gaze.

"Mr. Chen, this way, please follow me." Butler He led Chen Xi into the house, through the antique carved door, and into the shining passage.Along the way, Chen Xi could see the marble floor, which was polished to a shine, and reflected the faces of passers-by, like a mirror, exuding this cold atmosphere around.

He was taken to the second floor, and stopped at an antique carved door.Butler He opened the door, led him in, and said politely, "Mr. Chen, this is the room you live in, and the luggage will be delivered later."

Chen Xi was taken aback for a moment, only to realize that he had better leave his luggage in the car. After all, he was working here, so how could he ask the other party to wait on him?He hastily said a few polite words in an attempt to reject the other party's kindness.

Unexpectedly, the other party said politely: "Mr. Chen, although you are here to work in name, but after all, you are the young master's friend. We can't neglect you. Besides, no one else here can order you to do anything except the young master. , so to us, you are still a guest. This is what the young master ordered."

Hearing this, Chen Xi was still taken aback, thinking to himself that kid Han Zigao hired him to work?Or keep him?

"Then... Butler He, don't be so polite, call me so unfamiliar, just call me Asi." Chen Xi didn't know what to say, and then said heartily.

"Then I'll call you Master Xi." Butler He smiled, his eyes a little gentle.

"Ah? Don't call me that, I'm just a worker here." Chen Xi said hastily, there is no reason for anyone to call himself that, and it also makes people feel very embarrassed.

"Master Xi, don't say that. I will call you that sooner or later, just earlier." Butler He replied meaningfully, with a smile in his eyes.

"Butler He, I don't understand what you mean." Chen Xi frowned slightly and asked suspiciously.

"As long as you have read it..." Butler He's voice became quieter halfway through speaking, and after a moment of contemplation, he said again: "Young master should tell you this kind of thing in person. Please rest well, let me first Back off." After saying that, he turned and left.

Chen Xi stood where he was, a little confused. Why did he think that Han Zigao and the people here were saying something incomprehensible?

But, no matter what, even if he had a stomach full of doubts, life still had to go on.

He hadn't seen Han Zigao since that day.Later, he learned that Han Zigao was performing a TV drama in retreat through a message on his mobile phone, and he would probably not be able to return for at least three weeks.

When Chen Xi thought that he would not be able to see that boy for a while, he felt a little puzzled and uneasy. After all, in this strange environment, he only knew that boy.

However, he did not forget the fact that he came here to work.Since the other party didn't tell him what to do before leaving, then he should do what he can.

Therefore, whenever he had free time, he walked up and down the huge castle, and when he saw someone who needed help, he ran to help.Even if it was watering the flowers, pruning the flowers and plants, sweeping the floor and so on, he could do whatever he could, and gradually became familiar with the people here.

The sun was shining brightly, covering every corner of the garden like a thin golden gauze, shining brightly.

"Master Xi, good morning. You are really hardworking when you get up so early to water the flowers." The maids passing by greeted each other warmly.At this time, Chen Xi was holding a long plastic water pipe to water the blooming flowers in the flower bed.Hearing this, he raised his head and smiled heartily, and nodded a few times.

The soft sunlight shone on his handsome outline, tiny beads of sweat slid from his forehead, the water droplets were crystal clear, and there was a smile on his mouth, making his whole person appear to be in high spirits.The maids next to her couldn't help laughing and blushing.

Butler He came over from not far away, seeing everything in his eyes, with a smile on his kind face.

"Master Xi, breakfast is ready." Steward He walked to Chen Xi's side and said politely.

Chen Xi looked back and said with a smile: "Housekeeper He, I'm sorry, please wait a moment, I'm almost done." After finishing speaking, he bent down and reached out to remove the dead branches and leaves that fell on the flowers. The gentle look and actions are like treating a lover.

Seeing Chen Xi's cautious actions, Steward He couldn't help asking: "It seems that Master Xi likes the flowers here very much?"

When Chen Xi heard this, he smiled a little, and looked at the unknown flowers one after another in front of him, like a colorful sea, submerging people in the embrace of nature.When the wind blows gently, the flowers sway gently, as if they are dancing.

"The flowers here are very beautiful." Chen Xi couldn't help praising, all the flowers in sight were as delicate and charming as a girl waiting to be married.

Steward He's kind eyes were full of joy, and he replied: "The flowers here are all planted by the young master himself when he was ten years old."

"Oh?" Chen Xi couldn't help raising his eyebrows, thinking of the peerless beauty that came to mind, it really matched the flower very well.

"So, what kind of flower is this?" Chen Xi squatted down and asked, pointing to the flower in front of him.

Faint blue, as deep as dark purple, shaped like a rose, with plump petals containing stamens, ready to bud, like a beautifully folded umbrella.On the other side, two flowers are already in full bloom, dazzling and moving like fireworks.

"This kind of flower is also a kind of rose, and its name is the blue enchantress." Steward He introduced, looking at Chen Xi's curious eyes, he couldn't help adding: "Its flower language includes staying together is a kind of promise, In the samsara of the world, how can we have a tender affection.”

"Reincarnation?" Chen Xi said in a low voice, thinking to himself that it is really an interesting flower language, which makes people listen to it, a little sad, a little puzzled, a little poignant, and a little lingering aftertaste.It is obviously such an unrealistic thing, why do I have a feeling of déjà vu in my heart, vaguely as if there are such people and things?

"Master Xi, hurry up and go back to have breakfast! It's not good for your health if it's cold." Looking at Chen Xi's pensive look, Butler He couldn't help saying again.

Chen Xi came back from his contemplation, nodded and said, "Well, I'll go back right away." After finishing speaking, he folded the plastic water pipes before getting up and leaving.

On the petals of the blue enchantress under the sun, there are dewdrops one after another, like crystal clear tears, tiny and subtle, but it makes people have to pay attention.

In the blink of an eye, night fell again.In the dead of night, Chen Xi tossed and turned on the bed, not feeling sleepy at all.

He stared at the ceiling above his head in a daze, feeling like a dream in recent days.

Han Zigao is an idol star, and he himself is just a poor college student, like the distance between heaven and earth.However, they actually met each other, became friends, and now live in each other's home.Although it is a part-time job in name, it feels like a guest. This series of developments is really incredible.

However, thanks to the help of this sudden "friend", my mother can continue to live in the hospital.In any case, if you have the opportunity in the future, you must repay the other party well.

As he thought about it, his eyelids gradually became heavier, and when he was about to fall asleep, there were small voices from the next door.

Chen Xi woke up all of a sudden. His hearing and motor nerves were more developed than others since he was a child. Maybe many people couldn't hear this kind of sound, but he could hear it clearly.

What's more, the next door is Han Zigao's bedroom, and he hasn't come back to live in it recently, so how could he make any noise?Could it be a thief?

He got out of bed lightly, and slipped out of his room before he could put on his shoes.

The doorway next door was not completely closed, and there was a thin crack through which a faint light came through.Chen Xi secretly peeked through the crack of the door, but before he could see clearly, a black shadow moved quickly in front of him. Under the lightning and flint, he was grabbed by the throat, his face pressed against the wall, and his hands were pulled from the wall. Catch behind.

"Who are you?" The person who grabbed Chen Xi stood behind him and asked coldly, his low tone was like a cold wind, sharp as a knife, accompanied by a strong killing intent.

"Is that you Zigao?" Chen Xi couldn't help asking doubtfully when he heard the other party's voice.Although the tone of his own tone was not like Han Zigao's, the breath and faint fragrance were all unique to Han Zigao.

He struggled slightly, trying to straighten his face, trying to see the appearance of the person behind his appearance.

When the other party heard it, he immediately let go of his hand.Chen Xi turned around and saw that the man frowned slightly, with a trace of apology on his delicate face, he was indeed someone he hadn't seen for many days.

"Zigao, why didn't you tell everyone when you came back? It made me think there was a thief." Chen Xi's eyes lit up, he patted the other person's shoulder, and smiled, completely ignoring what happened just now.

Han Zigao glanced at the place where the other party patted his shoulder, smiled casually, and replied, "It's late, everyone is asleep, and I don't want to disturb them."

"Oh... so you just came back?" Chen Xi couldn't help but wonder, did you come home so late?

Han Zigao nodded, smiled slightly, and added, "Well, I'm going back to the set tomorrow afternoon."

"Then why are you coming back? So hard?" Chen Xi asked inexplicably.

Han Zigao paused for a moment, looked up at the other party, and replied nonchalantly, "Go into the room and talk, let's not stand."

"Okay." Chen Xi nodded and answered, followed the other party into the inside.

As soon as he stepped inside, it was like walking into a pure white world. The things and layout inside were all pure white, a vast expanse of white, as if covered by snow.Even the floor under its feet is white and shiny, as if it has gone to the ice and snow of the North Pole.

"Your taste is really special. Don't tell me you like white very much?" Chen Xi asked curiously, looking at the snow-white walls and the white gauze curtains on the bed.Although the furnishings here are the same as his room, it is also very simple, but the taste is different, with a detached charm.

Han Zigao didn't answer his words right away, but just looked at him quietly, without blinking, staring straight into Chen Xi's eyes, as if he wanted to see through him, a little weird.That look, as if looking at another person through him, was distant and profound.

Just when Chen Xi thought that the other party would not answer his question, Han Zigao spoke softly and said flatly: "A long time ago, someone said that I am very suitable for white."

Chen Xi was stunned for a moment, he felt a trace of nostalgia in Han Zigao's tone.This "trace" is not a little bit, but a block, like a mountain, like a deep sea, continuous and endless.

Chen Xi laughed at his own thoughts, why did he only have such thoughts, the combined age of the two of them is only 50 years old, why do they have the feeling of going through vicissitudes?

"That person is very important to you." Chen Xi blurted out without thinking.Later, he remembered that when he said this, he said it in an affirmative tone, not a question, and he didn't seem to understand why he said such a sentence.It seemed natural, and he said it.

"Maybe." Han Zigao replied with a half-smile, he thought to himself, that person is very "important" to him at any time, but he is also something he cannot "want".

The atmosphere suddenly became weird, and the two remained silent for a long time, only glanced at each other occasionally, and then turned away.

Chen Xi wanted to break this strange situation, so he suddenly changed the subject and said, "Why are you eating instant noodles?"

Han Zigao followed his gaze and saw the half-eaten instant noodles on the desk in front of the window.The half-open box was still steaming, slowly rising like smoke.

"In the middle of the night, who will cook for me? So I had to eat instant noodles." Han Zigao smiled slightly, walked over, and reached out to pick it up and continue eating.

Chen Xi stepped forward and hurriedly said, "Don't eat this kind of food, it's bad for your health."

"When I'm busy filming, I often eat. It's okay." Han Zigao answered casually, picked up noodles with chopsticks, sat on a chair, and gnawed.

Seeing the way the other party was devouring the food, Chen Xi felt that he was very cute, like a rabbit.However, the idea just flashed by.Because, from the day he met Han Zigao, he couldn't understand this person.This person, sometimes like a child, acted like a baby, and could sleep in someone's arms without warning.Sometimes he is like an ancient young hero, facing a thrilling scene, calmly and calmly, drawing a bow to shoot at the enemy.Riding on horseback is heroic and graceful, just like a young general.

Moreover, I thought he was a young master who would not eat common food, but now I saw him eating instant noodles with my own eyes.

"You don't know how to cook?" Han Zigao felt Chen Xi's voice above his head, and when he looked up, he saw the other's face was very close to him.This close distance made him blush and heartbeat.However, this "scare" is full of surprise and joy.

Feeling his heart beating again, Han Zigao didn't even dare to speak, for fear that the other party would see a flaw, so he just nodded slightly.

Seeing his "answer", Chen Xi patted the other person on the head, stretched out his hand to take away the box of instant noodles, and said in a doting tone that he didn't even realize: "I'll cook a supper for you, don't eat this Wait for me." With a smile on the corner of his mouth, he quickly turned and left the room without giving the other party a chance to answer.

Han Zigao looked at the leaving figure, the corners of his mouth raised slightly.That person is like this, gentle but domineering, but it belongs to that person's unique concern.

After a while, Chen Xi cooked the noodles.This bowl of noodles covered with green vegetables and sun eggs is placed on the table, and the aroma of food is wafting.

Han Zigao couldn't help moving his index finger, picked up the noodles, and ate hard.Seeing the other party's appearance, Chen Xi smiled wryly and shook his head, wondering why the other party looked so hungry?

In fact, Chen Xi didn't know that in order to spare some time to go home, Han Zigao rushed to shoot more than a dozen shots in a row, and finished all the parts he wanted to act, so that he would have time to sneak back when others were filming. .

"What is this script of a new play?" Chen Xi leaned against the wall, picked up a book that looked like a book but not like a book on the desk, and opened it to read.

Han Zigao nodded while eating, and added, "I'm playing the murderer this time."

Chen Xi raised his eyebrows, lowered his head and turned to the page of the role assignment list, and indeed saw that Han Zigao was a murderer playing one of the supporting roles.

"Why a supporting role? Shouldn't you be the leading actor?" Chen Xi is not interested in things in the entertainment industry. He doesn't know much about everything, but based on Han Zigao's popularity, he intuitively thinks that he should play the leading role with more roles. .

"Playing a role depends on whether the actor is suitable and whether he can bring out the characters in the drama. The director and I also think that the role of murderer is suitable for Han Zigao." Han Zigao put down the chopsticks in his hand and looked serious stated.Those eyes showed a persistent, serious and sincere attitude towards work.

"It turned out to be like this. No wonder you brought the script home to practice?" Chen Xi said speculatively, seeing the other party's meticulous look, he felt that he had such a look in his eyes for a moment.

"Well. I want to practice dialogue, understand the psychological activities of the characters, think about why he behaves like this, and get into the inner world of the characters." Han Zigao said a little excitedly. He thinks this role is very challenging, because The character is very similar to him before, especially the guilt and bewilderment of the first murder.

In the past, he bloodbathed the enemy army on the battlefield. In order to save his life and that person's country, he did not hesitate to exchange killing for peace in the world.The struggle in his heart at that time will never be forgotten in his life.

This point is somewhat similar to the various struggles in the character's heart, but it is a completely different kind of pain, which he feels very fresh.

Seeing Han Zigao's shining eyes and the expression of Gu Pan, people can't help but look forward to it.Maybe, one day, I can show my eyes too?A persistent vision for something?Chen Xi asked himself in his heart.
