if love was a play

Chapter 4

I haven't contacted Xuanyu for a week since he left my house that morning.

No one answered the phone, and finally turned off the phone altogether.I went to the company to look for it, and said that I am not on long-term vacation, and the promotion of "Song of Life and Death" has been transferred to others.I tentatively asked Brother Mo, but Brother Mo didn't seem to know anything.But Brother Mo told me that a similar situation had happened before because of a man.

At that moment, I seemed to understand something.The breath stuck in my heart, I can't get out, I can't get down.A voice in his heart said that he still went there to find that man.And I, like a fool, threw it away after being used up.Ha ha, that's right.

So I decided, give up, give up.

It took a lot of time to come to me that day, and to be honest, I'm not in the mood to talk to that child right now, so I had to make an excuse and coax him back.In the past, he would have seriously investigated the reason, but today he didn't say anything, just obeyed obediently, and then left.Looking at the back of him leaving, I twitched the corner of my mouth, feeling empty in my heart.

Thinking about it, let's go home.

It was a few days later when I knew something was wrong with the shoot.

Brother Mo called me and said, "Let's take a moment to read the book for the next episode, this drama may be getting dirty."

At that time, I just felt like a thunderbolt, yellow?Why so suddenly?

"Haven't you watched the entertainment news these days?"

I'm still full of question marks.

"The past two days have been full of quarrels, about Zhong Xinzhi and Fei Shiqi breaking his sleeve." It can be heard that he put his mouth close to the microphone.

who?with who?Broken sleeve?

Broken sleeve? ? ?

I was startled and came back to God.

"what happened?"

"A reporter took pictures of the two of them kissing passionately at the door of Zhong Xinzhi's apartment at night, and then went upstairs holding hands."

I was completely bewildered.

Immediately hung up Brother Mo's phone and called Fei Shiqi's cell phone.

"Hi." A listless voice.

"I."

"Ruoshui...Brother?" You could clearly feel the choking in that voice.

"Where are you?"

"I..." He hesitated to speak, his sobs became more and more obvious, "I... dare not go out...there are reporters downstairs..."

I sighed, yes, it's strange that there are no reporters.

"What did you do?" I lowered my voice and asked sternly.

Intermittent crying came from the other end of the phone, unable to speak, "I... I don't... know... That day, Brother Zhong invited me to dinner... After that, he took me downstairs to his house and said he would give me I was looking at something, and then...suddenly...my mind was blank at the time, and I went upstairs with him...the next day..."

There was a "tsk" sound in his heart, Zhong Xin knew what he wanted to do, did he have fun playing with a newcomer?

"Brother Zhong said...he...he likes me...I...I don't know..."

"Okay, don't sleep tonight. At three o'clock in the morning, I'll go downstairs to you. It's not a good idea not to go out. You'll start to live at my house tomorrow. Give me your home address."

To be honest, I don't know what I have become. This kind of sense of sight of taking in stray cats can only make fun of myself with a wry smile.

It was nearly three o'clock, and when I drove downstairs to his house, the reporters seemed to have dispersed.I sent a message to tell him that I was here, and soon a man with only one pair of eyes exposed came out of the door.I rolled down the window and waved to him.I saw him running over in a hurry, took off his mask and hat as soon as he got in the car, and looked at me with teary eyes.

I couldn't help but patted his head, almost wanting to coax a kitten and say, "Good boy~ I'll prepare food for you right away."

"Brother Ruoshui..." He called softly, really like a helpless little animal.

"Did you eat?" I asked as gently as possible.

"No."

I sighed, sure enough... Fortunately, I still have some things at home, so it's good to cook some noodles later.

While waiting for the red light, I glanced at him sideways, my eyes were still red, but my breath became much calmer, I think it was calmer, and I ran into this shit before I officially entered the circle, That Zhong Xinzhi really deserved to be a gossip male god, he didn't miss any of his opponents, not even the men.

"What the hell did you... and that person do?" I couldn't hold back and asked.

He opened his mouth slowly, his voice calmed down a lot: "During dinner, he told me that he liked me. I said, I have someone I like. He said, he won't force me. Later he said, he has something To show me, I was reluctant to go at first, but he insisted that it was just this one time, and I couldn’t resist him, so he went. He took me downstairs to his house, hugged me suddenly, and then... like a photo As it was photographed... I..."

"Then you still go upstairs with him?"

The man in the passenger seat bit his lip, "He said..." He lowered his eyes, as if he was a little embarrassed to speak.

"say what?"

There was another pause, and then came a sentence that surprised me. "He said, you've already fallen in love with someone else, and you won't like me."

It was just a little bit short, and I mistook the accelerator for the brake.

"What did he say?" I couldn't believe my ears, and asked again habitually.

"He says……"

"No, I heard it just now, you don't need to say it again." He stopped him in time. What?How did Zhong Xinzhi know about me?Did he see it?Impossible, I met Xuanyu at night, and they were all at my house, how could it be seen by others?What's more, he, a big star, wouldn't stare at an unknown little screenwriter like me.

The child beside him confirmed gently: "Brother, is what he said true?"

I took a deep breath and let it out slowly, "Yes."

Then he was silent again, and I tried to check his expression in the rearview mirror, but he had his head down and couldn't see anything.

Just waited for a long time and heard his voice: "I'm sorry...I don't know anything. I'll go out and find a hotel tomorrow."

That tone of voice made me feel so sad.

It suddenly occurred to me that the last time Fei Shiqi came to find me, it seemed that the entertainment news broke out the day after that.In other words, if I had agreed to him that day, this shit wouldn't have happened?Thinking of this, a sense of guilt arises spontaneously.The words she spoke were also a little gentler: "Don't worry, you should eat and sleep well first, and we'll figure out what to do after we're done."

He obediently said "um" and didn't say anything.

After returning home, let him have something to eat, then packed up and lay down on the bed, and lay down beside him.It's just past four o'clock, let's sleep late tomorrow.Not alive anyway.

In his deep sleep, he silently leaned over, his head lightly resting on my shoulder, with a peaceful sleeping face, and his even breath hit my chest, I turned slightly sideways, and held him tightly in my arms Next, he also fell asleep.

Woke up to a scent that morning.

I got up and walked out of the bedroom, and saw two steaming bowls of vegetable porridge on the dining table, a small plate next to it contained some pickles, and another plate contained two freshly fried poached eggs.

Fully dressed, Fei Shiqi walked out of the kitchen and smiled at me who had just woken up. I gave full marks to this fresh smile, and the drowsiness disappeared immediately.

I walked to the table and said teasingly, "I didn't expect you to have this skill?"

He smiled shyly: "I'm used to living alone, how can I live without this skill? I think I have some dishes, so I plan to use them to thank you for taking me in."

I giggled and said, "Why are you being polite to me?"

I ran to wash up, and sat down at the table to try this kid's handicraft.Unexpectedly, he almost choked me when he opened his mouth.

"Brother, are you still going GAY?"

I didn't hold the chopsticks properly and fell to the ground.I hurriedly bent down to pick it up, he had already brought me a new chopstick, which made me a little confused who the owner of this room was.

"What...how?" I felt a little guilty.

"It's nothing, I just saw a business card on the table, it must be the GAY I often go to."

Wait... This is a bit too much information... You... "Are you GAY?"

He looked at me with a "so far?" expression on his face.

I'm... starting to sweat.Since I picked up this obsessed book, can't I meet a straight guy or two?

"I sang there, although I only go there twice a month."

Wait a minute... a resident singer?Twice a month?Why do these words sound so familiar?

"Jay...?" I cautiously confirmed.

The kid actually grinned, "You know?"

I know...Of course I know...I was still in the store that day and watched you sing to the girls in the audience...

I nodded in embarrassment, and explained to him the first time I went there.

After hearing this, he was amazed, there really are such coincidences in this world.

"We are really destined." He chuckled, and then, the smile disappeared, and he fell silent suddenly.

What is this gap?Do you need me to answer?

And I just chuckled and asked a trivial question: "I heard you were in a band before?"

He nodded.

"Then why do you want to act?"

He smiled, "I don't have much perseverance when I do things. Three days of fishing and two days of posting on the net, one day I think the band is just like that. When it comes to singing, I will sing when I want to sing. As a professional president I feel a bit heavy. Those days when I stayed in the dormitory and watched "Emperor Kangxi", I felt that Emperor Kangxi was very stylish. Everyone is a modern person, but he can play the ancient king so well. I think acting is also very interesting. Anyway, I You're still young, so you can do whatever you want."

To be honest, when I heard the last sentence, I had the urge to go up and pinch him.

I twitched the corner of my mouth stiffly, and then said: "Youth is capital." Ha ha.

But he thought it was a compliment, and continued to say happily: "So I actually wanted to play the emperor this time. But after looking in the mirror for a long time, I still gave up."

Well done... what a self-aware lad.Of course, if you dare to say that you are here to test the emperor's play, we also dare to let you review Zixi.

Seeing that we had a very happy chat, I was not willing to give up this opportunity.

"Are you looking down on Gu Zixi?" I asked tentatively, after all, listening to actors' voices is also an important learning for screenwriters.

He mixed the pickles into the porridge, picked up the bowl and took a sip, "Not really. Zixi is a character with a very heart. The core of the cursive prefix. Although she looks soft and weak, she has her own principles in her heart." .Although I think about those love affairs in my heart, I still put the emperor and the overall situation first. I like this character very much."

As if he was being praised, his heart felt warm, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily curled up.

"Even if it's flattery, I'd love to hear it."

The other party seemed unhappy, pouted and said, "It's all the truth. Brother Ruoshui." Huh?Why are you so serious all of a sudden?Wasn't it fine just now? "Every word I say to you is always true."

? ? ?What's wrong?

"But you always seem to be playing for me."

Exm?Suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a bit wrong, and the ambient temperature dropped sharply.

I froze my face, not knowing whether to close the corner of my mouth or simply pull it further apart.

"Forget it." He sighed, and looked at me helplessly, "If we had met that day, maybe we wouldn't have such a regret."

Sorry... from the beginning, I don't seem to understand what you're talking about?

Seeing that I didn't respond, he continued on his own: "You and the current one met that day, right?"

"Why?" I reflexively said.

He smiled softly, "You went there because you wanted to study the book, didn't you?"

Ha ha, that's right.But this is time-consuming, I don't seem to know it very well.Um?What about the young and beautiful boy?You jumped from young Gu Zixi to mature Gu Zixi all of a sudden, I'm not used to it.

"Sure enough." He bowed his head and smiled again, "Smell. You don't have the unique smell of us people."

This... makes me even more confused.You can tell people by their smell, are you all puppies?

"Brother, if you don't drink the porridge, it will be cold." He raised his voice, pulling me back from the shock.At that moment, my heart was, Nima, am I the screenwriter or you are the screenwriter?One can talk about things more than one.and……

"You are really suitable to be an actor." I will say this sentence to death, and it is obviously mocking.

He was not annoyed, but just smiled lightly, the smile that was as light as a breeze when he rejected Gao Huan. "However, these days have gradually acquired that smell. In fact, I don't need Zhong Xinzhi to tell me." He frowned, with a sad expression on his face.

I'll just watch your kid act.

"are you kidding me?"

He was a little flustered, quickly put away his playful expression, and shook his head: "I said it, every word I said to you is the truth."

"why?"

"It's very simple, because I like you."

"why?"

"You don't need a reason to like someone, brother. If you see the right person, you will like it." He smiled slightly, as if he had gone through vicissitudes.

I think I have a problem with my emotional intelligence if I ask any more questions, so I finished the rest of the meal in a hurry, even though I don’t want to admit it, it’s still delicious.

"Put it in the pool after eating, and I'll clean it up."

He said "hmm", and the phone rang in due course.

Looking at the caller ID, he frowned again.

"That person?" I asked.

"Yeah." He replied.

I reached out to him, "Give it to me."

He handed me the phone.

"Master Zhong?" I restrained Xiaolu's turbulent heart, and tried to be as calm and calm as possible.

The other party was dull for a second, "Yo~ Teacher Su?"

Gee.

"Tip is with me, he is not interested in you. Please, hurry up and find a female star to make a headline, thank you!" After I finished speaking angrily, I immediately hung up the phone and put the number on the block list In the middle, stuffed it into the hand of the bewildered tip beside him. "Blocked."

The corners of his mouth curled up beautifully, his eyes shone like light, and he could vaguely see something flickering in his eyes.Young man, you will definitely become the best actor in the future.

"Brother Ruoshui~"

"Ok?"

"I really want to hug you right now."

ha?While thinking about it, he suddenly jumped on me, rubbing his face against my shoulder like a kitten.

"Brother, I don't want to live out." The coquettish little milk's voice tickled everyone's heart.

I patted his head, "Alright, just stay here." I still wanted to cut off my tongue.

He smiled broadly.

"Brother, what about the show?"

I shook my head, who knows what. "Wait for the news from above. Shoot again, aren't you and the emperor embarrassed?"

He rolled his eyes, and suddenly had an idea: "Why don't we let Zixi and Gao Huan be together. The emperor also don't see each other."

I flicked his forehead lightly, "You're the screenwriter and I'm the screenwriter?"

He pouted again, probably thinking it was his cuteness.

"What do you want to do today?"

"I want to write songs. Let's go buy a guitar with me first." He grinned and hooked my hand.

Late in the day, I received a text message from an unknown recipient.There is only one sentence written on it: "10 o'clock in the evening on the 10th, the place where we met."

There was an inexplicable throbbing in my heart, but I knew who it was from without a signature.

The author has something to say: Xuanyu is offline in this chapter...

If the water is written more and more scum... Put the lid on the pot...

It doesn't matter, no one is watching anyway, hahaha

☆、Song of Life and Death Act [-] (case)

In the blink of an eye, it was two years.

The emperor has not been to Yizhou once in two years.

Two years passed so plainly and silently.

Gao Huan no longer stubbornly pestered Gu Zixi about wanting to be together.Every day, he watched his sweetheart change from being happy like a flower to being calm, indifferent, and sad. Although he was beautiful no matter what, he gradually understood that the person in Zixi's heart was nothing. Instead, there is no rush for this matter, only slowly.He still firmly believes that the person far away in the capital cannot give him happiness, but he can.

On this day, the emperor announced to the world that Chen Zhaoyi was made the queen, and the world was amnesty.

When Zixi heard the news, he was stunned, as if something in his heart was being eroded a little bit, and then collapsed.He pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled silly.Isn't it natural for the emperor to establish a queen?He tried hard to convince himself, but the heart could not be persuaded.For two years, he has been waiting for the emperor's edict to recall him to the capital.Once there is news to report, he will eagerly welcome it, but the ready smile is always froze at the corner of his mouth.On this day, I finally laughed out, but with bitterness and despair.

He just sat in the room blankly for a long, long time...

The sun sets and rises.The sound of the cock crowing brought Zixi back to his senses, only to hear the voice outside: "Master Gao, Mr. Gu is still resting, please stay!"

The door was opened with a "bang", and a big man rushed in aggressively.He grabbed Gu Zixi's slender arm, pulled him in front of him, and stared straight into his eyes.

"Master Gao...how are you?"

"I said, he doesn't like you!" At this time, he can tell him confidently that he is not wrong, look at that heartless person, who left you here and ignored you, and hugged you in the palace Hug, what do you want him to do?What are you waiting for him to do?

"He is the emperor." Zixi said softly.It is normal for the emperor to have a sangong six courtyard.

"So what about the emperor? Can the emperor just throw one away if he likes it?" He was furious.

Zixi looked into his eyes, and suddenly he couldn't look straight at him with that unwavering gaze... His words were the words in his heart, and if he didn't dare to say them, it turned out that he also had resentment.

Gao Huan pressed Zixi's shoulder, lowered his head, and continued to look at him seriously: "Zixi, he can't give you the one and only, I can. He can't promise you, but I can. He has the heart to leave you here alone , I can't bear your tears to wash your face for him."

Zixi raised his hand and touched his cheek, but it was wet, but he didn't realize it at all.

Gao Huan wiped away the tears on Zixi's face, and hugged him tightly, as if this person would disappear if he let go.Zixi let him hold her like this, she had forgotten what the pain was, only heard the sobbing getting louder, it turned out to be her own.

From that day on, Gu Zixi seemed to be a different person.In the past, official duties were handed over to his subordinates, and he would review the submitted documents.But now he will inquire and investigate all things one by one, and he will go out to investigate from time to time, investigate the people's feelings, comfort the people, and supervise the officials.If there is any case, no matter whether it is a major case or a small case, he must visit it in person, and he will not feel at ease if he does not find out the result.The time spent reading books and taking care of flowers and plants in the courtyard is getting shorter and shorter, and the time spent reading files before the case is getting longer and longer.

This day a high-ranking official came to the capital. He was a student of the late Mr. Gu. The current Minister of Rites, Shi Fei, was also one of the few seniors who always took good care of Zixi.

When he came to visit, Zixi was just coming back from outside, and he was surprised to see his old friend, so he immediately greeted him with a smile.

"Master Shi, why are you here?"

Shi Fei took his hand, and looked at the child who had grown up with a smile, "It happened to be on leave to return home, so I stopped by to see you. I haven't seen you for a long time."

Zixi smiled lightly, it had indeed been a long time since I saw her.

"I'm also very pleased to see that you, the governor, look good."

Zixi said modestly, "Master Shi has said it, Zixi still has many shortcomings, and I hope you can give me advice."

Shi Fei stroked his beard and nodded in satisfaction, "As it stands, His Majesty will soon be able to recall you back to the capital to entrust you with important tasks."

Hearing this, Zixi's eyes darkened, "Zixi only wants one party to be an official, and doesn't expect to return to the capital again."

"Eh? What nonsense are you talking about? Don't we scholars just want to be an official assistant by the emperor's side all our lives, so there's no reason to stay here all the time."

Zixi smiled, "Master Shi is right. It's Zixi who hasn't figured it out yet."

Shi Fei patted his hand again, and said softly: "Is there anything you want to say to Your Majesty? I can help you."

"Let Your Majesty serve the people of the world, and take care of the dragon's health."

Shi Fei obviously hesitated, of course he didn't understand what happened between the two, but he felt a little strange.But after being stunned for a while, I decided not to ask anything.

Master Shi left for another fall and winter, except that Zixi managed the state affairs in an orderly manner, punished a few corrupt officials, and detained a few illegal businessmen, there was not much change.

In the spring of the second year, an imperial decree came from the governor's office: Gu Zixi, the current governor of Yizhou, returned to Beijing to serve as the Minister of the Household Department.

This year, Zixi was 24 years old.

On the night when the edict came, Gao Huan finally couldn't hold back and came to Zixi.Gao Huan originally thought that Zixi had given up on the emperor. Seeing that he was busy with government affairs every day and was very clear as an official, Gao Huan was actually quite happy in his heart. One day the other party will understand and accept themselves.However……

"Are you going back?"

"Do you want me to disobey the imperial decree?" Zixi raised his eyes to look at him, but it was not the kind, kind, and gentle eyes that were back then, which were sharp and cold.

Gao Huan was silent, but the silence was silence, and he would not let go of his hand.

"Brother Huan?" The person in front of him suddenly softened, calling the name that he hadn't heard for several years in a waxy voice.

Gao Huan felt an electric current rushing through his body, and he couldn't control himself for a moment.

He hugged the person in front of him tightly, and said with a half-choked voice, "I don't want you to leave. You resigned from office, will you be by my side?" The tone was almost pleading.

Zixi leaned on his shoulder and smiled softly: "Thank you, Brother Huan. Thanks to you all these years, I can survive until now. Really, you have helped me a lot, but I can't give you anything."

"Just give you to me."

Zixi pushed him away, raised his head, rolled his eyes, and didn't respond to him.

But Gao Huan was fascinated by those eyes, and lowered his head to kiss her, but was avoided by the other party.He put on an expression like a wounded little animal, and looked at Zixi.

Zixi smiled lightly: "I'm sorry, Brother Huan. I only belong to that one person in this life. If he doesn't want me, then I only belong to myself."

Gao Huan sneered, but didn't say anything, and couldn't say anything.Begging is not something he can do, and he doesn't want to forcefully possess him, it will only make himself more miserable.Let go when it's time for a man to let go.

"You can also come to the capital, there are many opportunities there, and we will see you again."

Zixi was smiling, but there was a mockery in Gao Huan's eyes.

He waved his hand, forced a smile, said "Farewell", and left.

In the main hall, the emperor looked at the person standing with His Highness whom he should be very familiar with, but at this moment he was in a daze.

The familiar face is more mature than before, the familiar eyes are sharper than before, the familiar body is taller than before, and the familiar smile is firmer than before.

He raised the corners of his mouth, lowered his eyes, arched his hands, and saluted: "Gu Zixi, Secretary of the Household Department, pay homage to Your Majesty."

The author has something to say: This chapter is a bit dull...

It doesn't matter...no one is watching anyway...
