life partner

Xu Cheng actually had a lot of things he wanted to say to Xu Jing, but he was not good at words, and some words were held back in his heart, suppressing the longing in his heart, and after a while, what he originally wanted to say changed.

Xu Cheng lost his mind for a while, then was attracted by Xu Jing's call, "Brother, how should I cut this lotus root?" Taking the knife in his hand, he cut a slightly thick slice of lotus root, and cut a small slit in the middle, "There will be meat in here later, so don't cut it off."

Xu Jing nodded, followed his brother's movements, and began to cut carefully. Xu Cheng stood beside him, stirring the batter, chopped the pork into pieces, added some minced ginger to remove the smell, and waited for Xu Jing to cut it. Well, he sandwiched the meat into slices of lotus root with gaps, dipped it into the batter, put it in an oil pan and fried it, and the aroma came out after a while.

When they were young, their mother would also cook this dish for them, but it was troublesome to make, so they didn't eat it often.What I miss most is what I can’t eat. When Xu Jing was in the UK, he always thought that one day when he returned to China, he must eat this dish. Fortunately, his brother can cook now, and he can eat it whenever he wants up.

Xu Cheng put the fried golden lotus root cake out of the pot, Xu Jing couldn't wait to eat it, but it was too hot, he couldn't close his mouth, he screamed and jumped around in the kitchen, Xu Cheng told him I spat out what was in my mouth, but Xu Jing just swallowed it. Although it was scalded badly, and I didn't taste what it was, Xu Jing was still so happy that it was about to bubble.

If he had a tail, he would wag his tail and go to the sky by now.

"Brother, you are so virtuous."

What a good wife, of course, he only secretly laughed in his heart after this.

He waited for Xu Cheng to cook the dishes, served him the dishes, and cleaned the floor and the dishes he just used. He was unambiguous in his work. Seeing Xu Jing doing these things, she couldn't help but praise: "You are really virtuous."

Xu Jing raised her eyebrows, the hand washing the dishes paused for a moment, and said nothing, thinking in her heart whether she is virtuous or not, she will see whether she is virtuous or not after she goes to bed.

After dinner, Xu Jing volunteered to wash the dishes, and Xu Cheng also wanted to help, so he asked his brother to sit on the sofa in the living room and read the script. The character he asked Xu Cheng to play was called Liu'er. He was just a gloomy gangster who did all kinds of bad things and died a miserable death. In order to keep a secret for Dai Chuan, he was beaten to death with a random stick.

This role has changed quite a lot. This is probably the first time Xu Cheng has encountered such a volatile role. Before that, his agent did not regard him as a seedling. Yes, it is also the kind of small character who dies early.

At this moment, he looked at Liu'er's lines in the play, and couldn't help but whisper softly in his mouth.

When it comes to acting, Xu Cheng is actually not all for Xu Jing, he sometimes wonders how he would choose a career that needs to be in front of others, he can't figure it out, but he has to admit one thing, when he watches movies, That throbbing feeling is something that nothing can take away.

impersonate someone else.

You don't need to exist as this inferior and cowardly person anymore, you can freely hide in your own world, and let the person you play live for you.

Xu Cheng was tempted by this.

He sat on the sofa, leaning against his body softly, the light in the living room cast softly on his face, he began to imagine Liu'er's world, he thought that he should be Liu'er, living in the streets and alleys In the city, the dark and messy alleys will be his home. He has never been to school, so he is scolded as uneducated. He is gloomy and selfish, and has done countless bad things, but there are still some fairy tales in his heart.

This is probably the guy.

So, when Xu Jing finished washing and looked back at his brother, he was suddenly taken aback by his gloomy face.

Xu Cheng's brows were wrinkled into a few pieces of paper, his eyes drooped, the originally beautiful Zhong Ling's eyes lost a little aura and looked lifeless, there was a cold silence in his eyes, his face looked pale and gloomy under the lamp, but The corners of the mouth were raised, and the arc engraved a little irony on this face.

This is just like Liu'er, the Liu'er that Xu Jing has been thinking about in his head.

He was so excited that he couldn't speak, he stood on the spot, watching his brother create Liu'er in front of him tremblingly, he forced himself to be quiet, holding back the cheers in his chest.

That's it, Liu'er was sitting in front of her, and Xu Jing couldn't help making a small sound in her throat after all.At this time, Xu Cheng opened his eyes, his eyelashes were lowered, and then opened again. His eyes were full of sarcasm. He tilted his head, squinted at Xu Jing, snorted, and then spoke slowly. , "Sir, do you think you are the only one here?"

That was Liu'er's line, Xu Jing was stunned for a moment, then saw Xu Cheng frowned suddenly, "Is there anything else missing?"

Xu Jing knew that Xu Cheng was creating a character. He suppressed the excitement in his heart, and after thinking about it, he said: "You have to give yourself some hope, after all, Liu'er still has a little light in her heart."

Xu Cheng didn't speak, just closed his eyes again, and began to conceive the most suitable world for Liu'er again and again.

He didn't sleep until late at night.

…………

Half a month later, "Aoki" was launched.

Because of the joining of Lajie Lianchao and the reputation of Xu Jing, a returnee director, there are quite a lot of media flocking here, but Xu Jing didn't want to make any publicity at all. He led a group of crew members to shrink to a remote coastal town to shoot.

It’s winter near the sea, and the damp and cold weather is really unbearable. Xu Jing put on a heavy military overcoat and layered four or five pieces inside. When shooting, they often get up at four or five o’clock, Waking up early in winter is like killing people. Sometimes you have to catch a rainy scene, and you often have to be careful. After half a month, Xu Jing has changed from a handsome director who just returned to China to a bearded and hot-tempered director.

This is Xu Jing's first movie after returning to China. No matter how many honors he has gained abroad, he has to start over after returning to China. This is the starting point, but it is better than others. Xu Jing knew that everyone in the industry called him Xu Dao Xu Dao, but how many people really took him seriously in their hearts?

He is not a stunned young man, and he also knows that showing his sharpness is not good in this circle. After the filming of the day's filming, the crew has to go out to eat barbecue, Xu Jing was blown by the cold wind, Feeling a little bored, he didn't go with them, but he gave Gu Chen the money, and said that he would treat the crew to eat with their stomachs open.

Xu Jing left the crew and went back to a hotel they rented. This coastal town is remote and the hotel facilities are rudimentary. Fortunately, everyone in the crew has experienced wind and rain. Even the biggest Some people don't even care about court, that's good.

After Xu Jing returned to the hotel, he took a hot bath first. He felt that he was probably going to catch a cold. He covered his forehead with his hands, opened his backpack, took out two pills of medicine, and lay down on the bed.

Xu Cheng is not here yet, Xu Jing knows that this place is remote and cold, so he arranges the role of Liu'er at the end, thinking that when the weather is warmer, Xu Cheng can shoot more comfortably, but he This abuse of power is quite aboveboard, Xu Jing sneezed, thought about his brother for a while, and fell asleep in a daze after not long.

Upon waking up, Xu Jing felt that his throat was extremely dry. The air conditioner in the room was turned on very warmly. He stepped on the floor, and his footprints were reflected. Xu Jing drank a glass of cold water, but drank too quickly, choking his trachea. Here, he arched his back and coughed until tears welled up in the corners of his eyes. He took a deep breath and turned his head to look out of the dimly lit window. The wind is blowing, and it must be raining outside.

He rubbed his fingertips against the cold table, and he didn't know what he was thinking. After looking out the window full of shadows for a while, he climbed back into bed again, rolled up the quilt, but couldn't fall asleep anyway.

Waking up early the next day, Xu Jing slowly got up with the two bruises under his eyelids. He clutched his forehead, excruciatingly uncomfortable, but he still held on silently. Today's scene is very important. It is about the scene where Dai Chuan's good brother fell into the sea and died.

It happened to be raining that day, and the sky was covered with a large haze, covered with darkness, and the wind and rain were about to come.Lian Chao was ready early in the morning, his face was as white as a piece of paper, his hair and eyes were pitch black, he stared at the endless sea and sky line, trembling all over his body, and rushed into the icy sea water in a frenzy almost nervous .

This kind of sky fell into the water, it was like entering a hole in the ice. After the scene was filmed and he came out of the water, Lian Chao was still pale from the cold, his lips were purple and his whole body was trembling. The assistants immediately surrounded him and hugged him. Lian Chao, wrapped him in a towel, made him drink hot water, and pointed the heater at him.

Xu Jing also stood up and asked Lian Chao to change his clothes first and go back to rest.

He didn't say whether this scene was good or bad, but the effect that Lian Chao performed just now was not what he wanted. Lian Chao shivered with lowered eyes, and looked up at Xu Jing, "Director, I think the scene just now I didn't do well in the play, can I do it again later?"

Of course Xu Jing agreed, he felt that the actor Lian Chao was really good, he nodded repeatedly, and asked the crew to rest for 10 minutes, and then continue filming later.

This scene of going into the sea was filmed five times in a row. After the filming, even Xu Jing felt distressed when he looked at him. He looked at the filmed part on the monitor and felt that the effect had come out. It's not perfect, but with the post-production, it's not bad.

At this moment, Lian Chao probably couldn't take it anymore, he swayed, came to Xu Jing's side, and watched the scene he had just acted, his eyelashes that were stained with water were trembling slightly, and he nodded after a moment of stupefaction .

Xu Jing saw that he was shivering from the cold and his face was blue, so he quickly called the assistant next to him, "Take Lian Chao to rest, he won't be in the next two days, take a good rest."

Lian Chao glanced at him, then whispered thank you, the assistant supported him, and went back to the RV to change his clothes first.

…………

After another day of cold wind, after going back at night, Xu Jing developed a low-grade fever, but Xu Jing didn't care much, except for the dizziness and discomfort of his body, the rest of the discomfort was gone. His body is like this, sick Comes on quickly but takes two pills and you'll be fine.

Xu Jing went back to the room, took a fever-reducing medicine, and drank a large cup of hot water. He also took out the quilts from the cabinet and rolled them up on his body. Well, he leaned on the bed in a daze, and the sound of the TV in the room made him feel less lonely.

In fact, when he was in England, he lived alone all the time. Once he fell ill, he was lying in his apartment, and no one knew about it.At that time, Xu Jing was still thinking sadly that if he died, he would probably be discovered after he rotted and gave off a stench.

The days of living alone made him feel that every moment was a struggle.

It was torture, but not unbearable.

But when he experienced the days with Xu Cheng, he couldn't bear to return to such lonely days.

Xu Jing felt a little regretful that he had put his brother's dramas behind him, so he should let Xu Cheng accompany him from the beginning.

He was so burned that his cell phone rang suddenly.

Xu Jing waved his hand and took out the phone, and answered it in a low voice. The voice on the other end was a bit noisy, and the cold voice seemed to be mixed with some salty and wet waves, "Xu Jing."

Xu Jing jumped up from the bed, his eyes widened, and he shouted excitedly: "Brother..."
