Confession

Chapter 4 [Dinner]

Lin Xu's fingertips trembled, a strong heart palpitation made him dizzy, the surrounding light and shadow distorted, the sound and light faded rapidly, forming a strange space in his mind, in which there was only a lively and agile Jiang Yang.

A short sentence surrounds Lin Xu's ears three-dimensionally, intertwined with the once green, deep, and sexy voice, and the scattered timbre fills the gaps like broken puzzle pieces. perfect tone.

Jiang Yang has broad shoulders and long legs, and looks tall and straight. The ironed clothes wrap his body, his sleeves are rolled up to his elbows, and the black shirt makes his figure thinner. It is a very mysterious color, but he wears it with a sense of righteousness.

As he raised his arm, he could see the strong muscle lines on his arm, as well as the veins on the back of his hand. His slender and clean fingers were slightly stretched out, forming a gesture of shaking hands.

Lin Xu's stiff eyes fell on Jiang Yang's outstretched hand, his Adam's apple rolled, and he slowly raised his hand, touching the warmth, tentatively and carefully inserted into Jiang Yang's palm little by little until Fits perfectly with his palm.

Because of his height, Jiang Yang's hands are much bigger than Lin Xu's, and they can completely wrap Lin Xu's hands when they hold each other.

Lin Xu pursed his lips, and touched the back of Jiang Yang's hand with his fingertips. The natural body temperature was like a ball of fire, burning along his fingers to his heart.

The people next to him had noticed Jiang Yang's words a long time ago, and they wandered between the two with curious eyes.

A Liang was very surprised, "Senior? Are you from the same school?"

A Liang and Lin Xu have known each other for three or four years, and they don't communicate much, more often at business dinners.

All I know is that Lin Xu has a rather cold temper, he never talks about his past affairs or other people's gossip, and eats quietly every time we meet, and only speaks a few words when he needs to speak, and anyone who wants to add WeChat is always welcome, But when he wants to have a deep chat, he will give people a strong sense of territory, and he will not be familiar with the conversation.

That lukewarm attitude is like a banished fairy, and gradually everyone will not take the initiative to strike up a conversation.

This was the first time that Ah Liang had the opportunity to hear about Lin Xu's past, and he was quite interested.

"University is, the majors are different." Jiang Yang and Lin Xu separated after a brief handshake, and said with a smile, "The senior is a literature major, and he is quite famous in the school. He can write an article in the newspaper and occupy the school for a long time. In the commendation column, everyone called him a literary talent behind his back. But the senior probably doesn’t remember me, right? We had a few meals together before.”

A Liang nodded and said, "Xu Tian can afford it."

"Stop teasing me." Lin Xu lowered his hand, rubbed his fingertips, trying to keep the warm touch, looked at Jiang Yang and said, "I remember, long time no see."

"Since you are classmates, let's sit together." A Liang greeted everyone to sit down, and ordered the waiter to serve the food.

Lin Xu's body was a little tense, and he spread the square scarf on the plate stiffly and put it on his lap, holding the cup to drink water repeatedly.

He put his legs together, and he seemed to be sitting upright and serious, but he was at a loss, and he didn't even dare to put his arms on the table, for fear of bumping into Jiang Yang accidentally.

"I've read a lot of your novels," Jiang Yang took the initiative to talk, with surprises and emotions, "I didn't expect that the great god Xu Tian in the literary circle turned out to be my senior."

"Cough, cough——" Lin Xu was choked, coughed, his face flushed, and he went to get a tissue in a panic.

"Why are you choking?" Jiang Yang was also taken aback, and laughed, "Is the senior scared by me? I'm not that scary, am I?"

As he said that, he also reached out to grab the cardboard box. Their hands touched unexpectedly. Lin Xu withdrew in surprise. The redness on his face spread to his neck due to his bad breath, and he blushed from coughing.

There was so much commotion here that everyone looked over.

Ah Liang was discussing drinks with the waiter, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Jiang Yang, can we have a good chat?"

Jiang Yang put the tissue in front of Lin Xu and said innocently, "Liang Da, I was really wronged."

Lin Xu waved his hands and wiped his mouth with a tissue, "It's okay, I was too eager to drink water...I'm a little thirsty on the way."

"May I pour you another cup?" Jiang Yang took Lin Xu's cup and filled it up with tea, then poured water for Xing Xing and several other directors beside him.

Lin Xu's gaze followed Jiang Yang, and he couldn't take his eyes off seeing his polite, gentleman and talkative appearance.

"Have you... read my novel?" Lin Xu asked in a low voice.

Jiang Yang smiled, "Of course I've read it. I was going to dub "Chess Pieces" at the beginning, so I read the original work. I just entered the industry, and I need to continue to learn about dubbing. Liangda has dubbed several of your works, so I just read them. , while listening."

Lin Xu paused, bit the tip of his tongue, and swallowed the question that was about to come out.

The answer is already obvious, so what is there to ask?

——Jiang Yang In order to learn dubbing and improve his ability, he combined with the original to understand the feelings of the protagonists.

It's perfectly normal for a voice actor to read the original work for work, and it has nothing to do with the story he wrote.

Lin Xu took another sip of water to suppress the disappointment in his heart.

"I like "Light and Shadow" written by you the most." Jiang Yang continued.

Lin Xu was startled, and met Jiang Yang's gaze.

"Light and Shadow" was written a long time ago, and it was written in a bad state. It is a very sad and bitter story of campus growth, and the ending is BE.

Lin Xu used his bad memory to recall that "Light and Shadow" did not sell the copyright of the radio drama, only the physical book.

"I accidentally read that book when I was shopping with my classmates when I graduated from university. Although the final ending was not good, I like it overall." Resistance, "Senior, it seems that since you dropped out of school, I have come into contact with you earlier than you imagined."

Lin Xu clearly felt his heart skip a beat, followed by the accelerated flow of blood. He could feel them rushing through his limbs and bones, and the places they passed brought scalding heat, a strange feeling. The hot air rose in his body, and his face was hot.

"..." He licked his lips, his mouth was dry, and he glanced at the 22-degree air conditioner, and felt that the effect was not good at all.

The dishes were served one after another, and the waiter came in with the opened red wine and poured them one by one for the guests.

It's normal to drink at a dinner party, not to mention Lin Xu's capacity for alcohol is good. After so many years of drinking and getting drunk at home, he has practiced the ability to keep a thousand cups, so he is the key target on this occasion.

The waiter walked to Lin Xu's side and prepared to pour him wine.

Lin Xu glanced at the tea in the cup of the person next to him, held the cup and said to the waiter, "Pour less, I can't drink much..."

"Waiter, help him refill it." A Liang held the drink and raised his voice, "Author Lin can drink it. He once drank five editors in the publishing house. He mixed the white and the red, and he can still be sober when he goes home. Writing a book, he is the most drinkable of us!"

Everyone present was amazed, and Xiaowen praised: "Mr. Lin, are you so good at drinking?"

The seemingly cold and indifferent person turned out to be so drinkable, and he was really hiding his secrets.

"Really? I remember that you used to drink when you were drunk?" Jiang Yang was also very surprised, and said regretfully, "It's a pity that I have a job now, so I can't drink, otherwise I really want to compete with you."

Lin Xu: "..."

He wanted to maintain a good image in front of Jiang Yang, but A Liang gave him away with a single sentence. Do you think he is a drunkard now?

It would be hypocritical to cover up at this time, Lin Xu withdrew his hand, acquiescing to the waiter to pour him wine.

Only Ah Liang, Jiang Yang and Xing Xing didn't drink. They needed to protect their throats. The others drank more or less.

The whole atmosphere was very good. At the beginning, everyone stood up and toasted to celebrate the good results of "Chess Pieces" after its launch, and also congratulated Lin Xu on the completion of the novel.

After that, everyone chatted and laughed, chatting about the gossip in the dubbing circle, who broke up with whom, who was with whom again, and other radio drama data.

Lin Xu ate quietly, watching Jiang Yang out of the corner of his eye, he ate sweet and sour fish four times, sweet and sour pork ribs three times, hot and sour vermicelli twice, and tried the rest of the dishes once.

He still likes to eat sour.

Lin Xu was secretly happy that he noticed that Jiang Yang's taste hadn't changed.

Jiang Yang's appearance has not changed, it is the same as in memory, more mature than before, the same love to laugh, approachable, as if born with affinity, able to quickly draw closer in a few words, while maintaining a comfortable and safe distance from each other .

During the dinner, Xing Xing took the initiative to talk to Jiang Yang four times and Xiaowen three times. He answered each time, and then talked to Xing Xing and Xiaowen twice.

However, I never found myself.

Lin Xu chewed the vegetables and took a sip of the wine. The sour taste of the wine entered his mouth, soothing the dull feeling in his heart.

He glanced at Xiaowen, who was talking to Jiang Yang, by picking up vegetables.

The light in the box was very bright, clearly illuminating the pleasure in the girl's eyes. Perhaps she was talking about something more private, and she leaned over to speak in Jiang Yang's ear.

Lin Xu's chopsticks slipped, and the beef balls were not held firmly, and rolled onto the table, leaving faint grease stains on the clean white tablecloth.

"Sorry." Seeing Jiang Yang looking over, Lin Xu explained, "I'm not very good at pinching."

Jiang Yang smiled, and put a meatball in his bowl, "It's really not easy to pick. I use chopsticks well. It's okay to help the senior pick a meatball."

Lin Xu pursed his lips, and the corners of his mouth twitched imperceptibly. He took a bite of the meatball, and the thick soup inside exploded in his mouth, and said in a low voice, "Thank you."

"You seem to have majored in broadcasting and hosting before," Lin Xu asked, "How did you get into the dubbing circle?"

"Senior has a good memory," Jiang Yang praised, "I used to work in the radio station, and was recruited by Liang Da. I think dubbing is also very interesting, so I got into the industry like this."

"Lin Xu, your novel is finished, do you still have more work to do?" A Liang naturally asked Lin Xu about his work in the middle of the chat.

"There are a few scripts and some manuscripts to be revised." Lin Xu asked calmly, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Yang answered with a smile, "Liang Da wants to invite you to change the script of "Chess Pieces"."

Lin Xu didn't expect this, and looked at A Liang, "Don't you have a screenwriter?"

"The editing is not good, the main line is changed in a mess." A Liang said, "Didn't Xiaowen send you the script? Didn't you read it?"

Lin Xu completely forgot, "...I was too busy before."

A Liang: "You haven't listened to the trial version of the radio drama, have you?"

Lin Xu took a sip of wine, as a tacit consent.

Jiang Yang smiled, and jokingly said, "Mr. Lin Xu, why don't you support our work at all? This is a radio play of your work, shouldn't you be concerned about it?"

Lin Xu nodded, "I definitely care."

When he knew that the main character of "Chess Pieces" was Jiang Yang, he already regretted not listening.

At this moment, he could predict that the finished product would definitely satisfy him. It wasn't that Xi Shi was in the eye of the beholder, but that when he wrote it, the voice of the protagonist was Jiang Yang.

So let Jiang Yang assist in the attack, there is nothing more suitable than this.

Seeing that Lin Xu and Jiang Yang had a good chat, and they had a relationship with classmates, Ah Liang wanted to continue lobbying, "Lin Xu, I think..."

"Liang Da, you don't need to talk about it." Lin Xu interrupted him, "This is my novel, so naturally only I can adapt a script that satisfies readers, but I have one request."

With Lin Xu's worth and capital, A Liang thought that he would raise conditions that were difficult to meet, and he was already mentally prepared to cut his flesh, "Say it."

Lin Xu looked at A Liang without squinting, but he kept paying attention to the person beside him from the corner of his eye, "I want to follow the group all the way."
