Chapter 49 Summer Solstice (Two in One) I hope they can be happy. …
Since Xia Huanming said so, Chen Xing certainly would not refuse, and nodded and said, "Yes."
Xia Huanming smiled with satisfaction.
Chen Xing did not withdraw his hand, and was held by Xia Huanming while he watched the work of Shen Miao's group.
Chen Xing doesn't watch power struggles very much, but he likes this work very much.
There is a particularly good point in this work.
When the prince forced a concubine's sister who was already engaged, he did not deliberately shoot the welfare scene of the woman half-exposing her shoulders or thighs under the oppression of power, but instead filmed the night scene outside the window, revealing only the sound of despair.
Chen Xing actually didn’t quite understand why TV dramas about abuse would always show the victim dodging in fear, with their clothes torn or half-exposed, and the scenes would last for quite a while.
He always skips these clips when watching them, and skipping them has no effect on the plot.
Chen Xing blindly guessed that this was a female director.
The host asked the director to stand up. A woman with her hair caught in a shark clip and wearing a plain windbreaker stood up and faced everyone.
Chen Xing knew this director Wang Jingjing.
Wang Jingjing is a rare female director in China. She debuted with a style of "fantasy and reality". The most famous art film "Waiting for the Moon" has the dreaming scene of the heroine still used as dream editing material. Wang Jingjing has good vision and professional ability. The lowest score of her five art films is 8.0.
In response to the host's question, director Wang Jingjing also admitted that she was most satisfied with this part because there were no oppressive shots. She didn't want to shoot things from the perspective of the perpetrator, which would arouse the desire of some viewers to abuse.
Wang Jingjing admitted that she had this plan when she saw the script.
She had previously filmed modern dramas, and now coming across this script not only fulfills her dream of filming a costume drama, but also represents a powerful combination.
“So I hope that in the future, more and more people in the film and television industry will pay attention to and improve this aspect. Thank you everyone.”
After Wang Jingjing finished speaking, she bowed and sat down.
After a few seconds of silence, the audience burst into applause. Chen Xing couldn't help but applaud as well: "That's very well said. I've always thought this filming technique was weird."
"Now everyone has gradually discovered that something is wrong," Qi Yinrui said. "There was once a director who, in order to film the actress's expression of pain, asked a male actor to actually molest the actress who was unaware of the situation, calling it a sacrifice for art."
Chen Xing was extremely shocked. Is this something a human could do? He was already furious just by hearing it. If he were the person involved, he would be so desperate.
He frowned in disgust and said sarcastically, "Why didn't he sacrifice himself if he wanted to? What happened to the actress later?"
Qi Yinrui shrugged and said regretfully: "It left a psychological trauma."
Chen Xing cursed softly, "You beast."
Qi Yinrui was stunned and said with a smile: "This is the first time I hear you swear."
Chen Xing clenched his fists and said, "There's nothing I can do. I really can't stand this."
Xia Huanming came over and asked, "What are you talking about?"
Chen Xing snorted twice, glanced at the camera, and said in a way that people of all ages can hear: "A big bad guy."
Xia Huanming: “?”
Chen Xing changed the subject and told Xia Huanming to ignore him and continue watching the game.
After all the works have been played, the host will come on stage to continue the cue process and invite the mentors who have been discussed to come on stage together to announce the results of this competition.
While he was waiting, he discovered two things.
The first thing is: the scene without background music is completely silent.
The second thing: it turns out that their show really doesn’t have a script.
Chen Xing watched eagerly as the program crew handed several sheets of paper to the mentors and asked them to write their names on the spot. One staff member didn't look at the small step under his feet on the way back, staggered, and almost fell to one knee.
The people in the front row noticed this, and Gu Yirou picked up the microphone and said, "Why don't we put up a sign here? It's really too dark to see."
So another older staff member took out a "Caution Slippery Floor" sign and tried to get in front of the small staircase. But the uncle didn't see the staircase, and he was fat, so his core was unstable.
With a "clang", he knelt down right in front of the employee who had tripped.
They both: “…”
Everyone in the audience: "..."
The instructor stopped discussing. Everyone's eyes were on the two men. The employee said tremblingly, "Ping, Ping?"
The old employee's face was already red. He stood up silently, put the sign away silently, and dragged the young employee away.
What’s even more outrageous is that as soon as they left, the photographers followed them and continued to film them like paparazzi.
After the three of them left, the audience burst into laughter, including the mentors.
"I give in, hahahaha..."
"Why are our programs becoming more abstract?"
"It's over. I feel like the three of them will form a group after this airs. They'll be more popular than me!"
Isn't this a great show? Chen Xing thought with envy. Others tried so hard to stand out, but they were not as funny as them.
This is simply talent, huh?
The laughter didn't stop until Zhang Jin'an said quiet. Several mentors walked slowly onto the stage, their footsteps were particularly clear in the quiet theater.
As they walked, the lights in the theater suddenly dimmed, leaving only a few spotlights that fell on the mentors like silver ribbons, making their figures look slender and solemn.
The contestants were still a little nervous.
After all, everyone performed well, so it’s hard to guess who will be the first place.
Chen Xing subconsciously leaned forward and listened to the host's words in a posture as if he was about to run away.
He was so focused that he didn't notice the smile on the corner of the lips of the person next to him when he saw his posture.
After the mentors discussed quietly on the stage, they finally asked Zhang Jinan to announce the results.
Zhang Jinan took a step forward with his body erect, he glanced at the audience, raised the microphone and said straight to the point: "The first place in the male group we selected has a very good shooting rhythm, a compact plot, and the camera movement and line arrangement are all top-notch. Secondly, the script. Personally, I really like this kind of script that, after watching it in the later stage, I find that everything is traceable, and it is full of discussions on human nature and rationality, and it also has a certain depth."
Upon hearing the last sentence, it was obvious who the outcome was.
The team members whose lunch boxes were not covered had already started to move. Zhao Xingyu and Wang Baiyue were about to stand up happily.
Chen Xing's heart was pounding when he heard Zhang Jin'an announce the name: "So our first place is - the lunch box has no lid. Let's congratulate them." Only then did he feel the reality.
They really are number one!!
This was not the end yet, Gu Yirou said again: "It just so happens that the most expressive actor we selected is also Xia Huanming from this group! Congratulations, come on stage!"
She smiled and waved to them.
At this moment, the spotlight hit their area. The sudden drop in the light made him squint his eyes. He could only listen to the applause and cheers that came one after another around him, as if they were waves coming in.
Chen Xing's heart was beating fast, his chest seemed to be blocked by something, and his breathing was a little rapid.
Chen Xing paused for a few seconds, and the first thing he did after opening his eyes was to grab Xia Huanming's arm and shake it hard: "It's you, I said it was you!"
Xia Huanming turned his head and looked at Chen Xing with gentle and deep eyes: "Let's go."
The members whose lunch boxes were uncovered came on stage together, and the mentors distributed the first-period award cards in turn. Everyone got one - although they were called cards, they were actually similar to the certificates that were posted on the wall when they were students, with inscriptions and suffixes, and they just had to write their name.
The program crew framed it and surrounded it with dried flowers, making it look beautiful and high-end.
Chen Xing stood straight, waiting for Zhang Jin'an to walk up to him and hand him the award card with both hands. He happily took it and thanked him, "Thank you, big brother."
Zhang Jin'an smiled and said, "Chen Xing, your performance in the first round was a little immature, but it can be seen that you have made great progress. And I heard that you passed it in one try? Very good, keep up the good work."
Chen Xing held the picture frame and nodded heavily: "Yeah."
Zhang Jinan walked over to Xia Huanming again, handed it to him with a smile, and said, "Your strengths are obvious, and your weaknesses are also visible, but you are obviously getting better and better. Good, keep it up."
Xia Huanming nodded in thanks.
The mentors took turns to shake hands and talk. When Gu Yirou walked over to Chen Xing, Chen Xing heard Zheng Peiya's voice. It was the first time her voice was so loud, so it was particularly obvious: "Thank you, thank you, thank you, brother..."
He was obviously nervous and his words were stuttering.
When Zheng Peiya realized that everyone was looking at her, her cheeks turned even redder and she lowered her head nervously.
Zhang Jinan smiled gently and said, "You are obviously excellent, why are you so grateful? I am flattered."
Zheng Peiya nodded vigorously: "Yeah... yeah."
Zhang Jinan bowed slightly and praised: "You wrote the emotional scenes very well, beyond love, friendship, and even family affection, which can only be described as a bond. Under your writing, I see a group portrait with flesh and blood. You did a great job."
“Thank you…thank you…” Zheng Peiya was so nervous that her arms as she held the picture frame were shaking. She pursed her lips tightly, as if trying to support herself to stand.
Xue Si Nian, who was standing next to him, was much calmer. After taking the gift from Zhang Jin An, he said seriously, "Thank you, big brother, for giving me the award."
Zhang Jinan said: "The plot design is very clever. When Teacher Jinhua saw the middle part, she kept praising your foreshadowing, coherence of the plot, and good control of suspense. You two should have a good chat."
Xue Si Nian nodded.
Chen Xing didn't pay too much attention to other people, because after one instructor finished speaking, the next instructor came.
Gu Yirou praised him for his good performance in his first performance. Tang Shang said that with his face, Jinhua said that she wanted him to try a treacherous role, which would seem to have a contrast.
After all the mentors finished speaking to each member, the host asked them to stand in the back row and wait for a while.
Then, the mentors announced the second place winner, and it was indeed "the end of this performance". Several girls held hands and went on stage together.
As before, the mentors distributed awards and gave individual speeches one by one.
Finally, the production team asked everyone to come on stage, the lights in the theater were turned on again, and everyone took a group photo together. They asked the winners to stand in the front row, and first took a group photo of them standing straight and serious. Later, the director team asked to take a few more photos in which they could make various poses.
It was lively now. Some people were doing qigong, and some were making scissors hands on others’ heads.
Chen Xing is best at posing. He simply holds the frame with his left hand and makes a heart shape with his right hand. While others are racking their brains to think of poses, he has already changed to a new pose.
Zhao Xingyu next to him felt inferior: "How come you are so skilled?"
"It's like this when I have nothing to do and can only post selfies to show my presence," said Chen Xing.
Zhao Xingyu: “…”
After taking the photos, the first round of selection came to a perfect end.
The group that was not selected could collect 200 points at the door and went back happily.
Chen Xing's group and the group that finished the performance were left behind for a group interview.
This was also the first time Chen Xing participated in a group interview. The staff asked questions and Xia Huanming spoke on their behalf. When the question came to everyone's feelings, the seven of them expressed their opinions.
The staff was obviously interested in Zheng Peiya, who was so shy that she stuttered, and asked her in detail about her feelings, but did not force her to answer.
Zheng Peiya has calmed down a lot and answered the staff logically: "Because the mentors' works cover my youth. I was always off the stage before and never had such close contact with them. I am extremely honored and excited. I will also create better works with Nian Nian. Thank you."
After the interview, they changed their clothes.
When I walked out of the building, I happened to meet Shen Miao's group, and everyone greeted each other briefly.
Shen Miao held Huang Canni's arm, his eyes lingered on Chen Xing for a moment, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his lips. He said, "After watching your performance, I feel like I'm a little bit in danger. Have you really never learned it before? How come you've improved so quickly?"
Chen Xing lowered his head and touched the back of his neck, and said modestly: "Because many people helped me and the instructors taught me well, I was able to make progress."
“Hahaha——” Shen Miao’s hearty laughter seemed to be able to scare away the sparrows under the eaves, “Your learning ability is your talent, cherish it, and keep going!”
"Let's go. I'm starving." Huang Canni said, and they went back.
A dozen people walked together, as if they were walking on the street.
Chen Xing wanted to say: "Wow, there are so many people——"
The setting sun passed over the low wall covered with vines, cutting the camphor tree into fragments of light and dark, winding along the spring road, like a silk ribbon gently stretched by time, soft and tortuous.
The shadows of this group of people were stretched out by the setting sun, sometimes overlapping and sometimes separating.
The only thing that remained unchanged was that the ground beneath their feet was dyed golden, and every step they took felt like they were stepping on a river.
The laughter drowned out the silence of the original route.
Chen Xing was looking at his phone while walking, so he walked in the last row.
Suddenly, a familiar scent of perfume came with the setting sun. He looked up and found that Xia Huanming, who had been chatting with Zheng Qi, had turned back from the front and was walking side by side with him.
Need help? Chen Xing put away his phone and asked, "What's wrong?"
Xia Huanming was dressed in black but he did not look oppressive at all. His eyes were calm and gentle: "We still have things to discuss. Didn't you say that I was greedy for profit and forget my principles..."
"Ah..." After all, it was my misunderstanding. Chen Xing scratched his chin and explained embarrassedly, "Didn't you want to switch places with me? The day before yesterday, you said that you didn't want to leave me, but now you've left me to go play with others. I misunderstood a little, but don't worry, Brother Rui has explained it. You only did this because you had something to ask him."
As soon as Chen Xing finished speaking, his arm was suddenly grabbed by a force, and his steps suddenly stopped. Before he could react, a pair of warm hands had already covered his cheeks, and the fingertips slightly exerted force to gently lift his face.
His eyes were forced to meet Xia Huanming's.
The surprise in Xia Huanming's eyes was like the surface of the water rippling by a sudden wind, filled with disbelief.
Xia Huanming stared at him, his voice seemed to be squeezed out from the depths of his throat: "You said, I left you... for Qi Yinrui?" He spoke every word with great emphasis.
Chen Xing answered very seriously: "Because you two have a very good and close relationship."
Xia Huanming: “?”
People really laugh when they are speechless. Xia Huanming almost laughed out loud.
No wonder Qi Yinrui said he wanted to thank him.
Although Xia Huanming has always had the impression that Qi Yinrui is an old fox, it is undeniable that Qi Yinrui is indeed very upright.
In short, they are all misunderstandings, and we just need to resolve them.
But Xia Huanming still felt aggrieved, and he unconsciously increased the strength of his hands, rubbing Chen Xing's face hard until Chen Xing shouted to stop.
He couldn't help but hum softly when he let go of her hand.
Xia Huanming was in a good mood and asked again: "You were laughing while looking at your phone just now. What made you laugh so happily?"
Chen Xing waved his cell phone, which had turned off, and said calmly, "Oh, Brother Rui just asked me when I would go over to see the cat."
Xia Huanming: “…”
Why do you always use this method to seduce Chen Xing?
And Chen Xing just fell for it.
Xia Huanming was disappointed in his heart, but he didn't show it. He was still very gentle: "Can't we ask them to bring it over?"
"That makes sense," Chen Xing suddenly realized. It turned out that this was possible. He rushed to the front and shouted, "Is there anyone in our group who is allergic to cat hair?"
Everyone turned their heads, looked at each other, and said no in unison.
"That's great. I'm a little allergic," Shao Shuxian sighed regretfully, and another female player stroked her back to comfort her.
After hearing this, Huang Canni smiled and asked Chen Xing: "Why, do you have a cat?"
"No, I want Yaya to bring the cat over," said Chen Xing.
Zhao Xingyu's eyes lit up and he said, "That's good, that's good. Hurry up and bring her over. I want to suck her pussy hard."
Wang Baiyue silently complained: "I feel like the cat is not stressed, but you are."
This sentence caused others to laugh.
Chen Xing took two steps back and immediately asked Qi Yinrui if he could bring it over. Qi Yinrui replied, "Yaya agreed. I'll bring it over when I'm free."
Chen Xing told everyone the good news, and everyone used Chen Xing's phone to send voice messages, one sentence at a time, all thanking Maomao.
Everyone was laughing and joking, and they parted ways when they reached the villa area. The girls' villa was in the front, so they went back first.
Chen Xing never expected that there would be a surprise waiting for them when they returned home.
They walked to the lawn and found that the previously empty outdoor barbecue area was now equipped with a dining table and chairs. Even the bowls and chopsticks were already prepared and neatly placed on the table. The white lace tablecloth fluttered gently in the breeze, and the table was dotted with a few light pink carnations, which looked particularly elegant.
The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the lawn, giving the entire scene a warm golden hue.
Everyone was stunned. When they came back to their senses, Zhao Xingyu and Wang Baiyue were the first to rush over.
Zhao Xingyu stroked the lace tablecloth and the decorative carnations on the table and asked in confusion: "What does this mean? We are having dinner here?"
Wang Baiyue crossed his arms and speculated in a deep voice, "Is this the treatment for the first place winner?"
Chen Xing came over with the others. He walked slowly to the side and just as he sat down, he smelled an enticing aroma coming from a distance - the staff were bringing up the dishes.
Chen Xing swallowed and said, "It smells so good."
At this moment, the chair next to him was gently pulled open, and Xia Huanming sat down naturally. Xia Huanming reached out and poured a glass of juice for Chen Xing first, and then filled his own glass.
Chen Xing quickly said thank you, and Xia Huanming nodded slightly.
The staff served the dishes one by one, and it took several minutes to finish.
What's more funny is that the table is clearly arranged in a Western European style, but the dishes are all Chinese, covering all corners of the country - Peking duck, sweet and sour pork, mapo tofu, kung pao chicken, steamed sea bass, Buddha jumps over the wall, chopped pepper fish head, salted egg yolk fried chicken wings, braised lion head, pickled fish and oyster omelette.
Everyone looked at the table full of delicious food, but did not rush to eat. Instead, they raised their wine glasses filled with orange juice and stood up to clink glasses.
"cheers!"
The crisp sound of glass clinking echoed in the air, and everyone drank it all in one gulp.
After drinking the juice, we started eating.
Chen Xing couldn't wait to pick up a roll of Peking duck and put it in his mouth.
The crispy duck skin is dipped in sweet noodle sauce, and a few scallions are added. When you take a bite, your mouth is full of fragrance. The crispy duck skin makes a subtle sound when it breaks between your teeth, and the spiciness of the sweet noodle sauce wrapped in scallions blooms on the tip of your tongue. The softness of the dough neutralizes the crispness of the duck skin.
Chen Xing's eyes sparkled. He pointed at the half-rolled roast duck on his plate before he had even finished eating. He pulled Xia Huanming's clothes to recommend it: "Mmm... this one... "
Xia Huanming actually understood what he heard, picked up a roll, took a bite, and said, "Mm, delicious."
Chen Xing finally swallowed it and said happily: "Really!"
"Don't move." Xia Huanming wiped the sauce off Chen Xing's cheek with his index finger and then smeared it on the cloth. "Okay."
Zhao Xingyu said from behind: "This roast duck is really delicious."
Xia Huanming turned around and frowned instantly. There was also a lump of sauce on Zhao Xingyu's chin.
Xia Huanming was quick and threw a pack of napkins to him: "Wipe it."
Zhao Xingyu took it and said, "Thank you."
Chen Xing was eating by himself. He praised every dish he ate. The camera was always pointed at him, as if they were filming his eating show.
But Chen Xing can indeed do a food broadcast. He doesn't just eat in small bites pretending to be serious. Every bite is paired with rice, or mixed with his own ingredients, and he puts a big mouthful of food on the spoon and finally swallows it into his stomach.
He didn't just use "sticky" or "sweet", but went into detail about the taste. The directors were very satisfied and felt that the behind-the-scenes footage had been settled, and the show didn't end until Chen Xingquan had eaten it all.
The sunset glow in the sky gradually faded, replaced by the deep blue night sky. A few stars lit up quietly, like diamonds dotted on the sky.
Chen Xing had almost finished eating, so he sent a funny video to Xia Huanming. After watching it, Xia Huanming sneered and replied, "Hahaha."
Chen Xing was not satisfied with Xia Huanming's reaction.
This was his best-kept secret funny video. He always watched it and laughed to death. Why was Xia Huanming so indifferent? Wasn't it funny?
Chen Xing found two more videos. Xia Huanming's expression remained the same, he just twitched the corners of his mouth.
Chen Xing's desire to win suddenly arose, he slammed the table and threatened that he must make Xia Huanming laugh within today.
Later, Zhao Xingyu also joined in and found a video to send to Xia Huanming. As a result, Chen Xing laughed, while Xia Huanming's expression became even colder.
"Is it because your sense of humor is too low?" Zheng Qi said.
"How is that possible?" Chen Xing and Zhao Xingyu said in unison.
In order to prove their innocence, the two asked everyone to find a video and post it in the group. Whoever laughs first will be eliminated.
From here on, the nature of this matter has changed and inexplicably became a "don't laugh challenge".
Everyone in their group refused to admit defeat. Wang Baiyue even mobilized his girlfriend to help him find the video. However, he was the first one to laugh and was eliminated.
In the end, there was no doubt that Xia Huanming was the winner.
【Zhao Xingyu】: Regretful exit.jpg
[Wang Baiyue]: But if we compete like this, will there be any rewards for the winner?
The group of seven finally quieted down.
Everyone then realized that there was no reward for winning, so what was the point?
Chen Xing spread his hands and said, "Why is it meaningless?"
The six of them looked up at him.
Chen Xing: "Aren't we all wasting our time?"
Everyone: “…”
There was silence at the table. After a few seconds, everyone continued to eat.
The breeze blew gently, carrying the aroma of the dishes to the gradually blurred mountains in the distance.
Time passed by quietly without anyone noticing, dusk quietly spread across the sky, leaving only an empty plate on the table.
After eating and drinking his fill, Chen Xing raised his head, trying to take in all the tiny silver rays of the night.
But the sky was so vast that he could only raise his glass and invite them to drink together.
He whispered, "Cheers," and took a sip.
Xia Huanming, who was standing next to him, noticed his actions and couldn't help but smile with relief.
They were looking at the stars and the moon, while the other five were chatting and digesting their food.
They were talking about several groups of works today. Xue Si Nian said that her favorite group was the one that ended with the performance, "Xi Huang". When asked why, she said that it was because there were many foreshadowings and they were all preparing for the second part.
"I think the woman who was molested by the prince resisted successfully and killed the prince, otherwise why didn't the prince appear later?" Xue Si Nian said after taking a bite of caramel pudding.
Zhao Xingyu nodded and said, "It's not impossible. Maybe a secret guard suddenly came and saved her, and then the two of them fell in love with each other, and it became a love story."
"No!"
"impossible!"
Xue Si Nian and Zheng Pei Ya jointly rejected this possibility, which scared Zhao Xingyu and brought Chen Xing back to his senses.
Cheng Pei-ya said: "It's not hard to see that love is secondary to the writers' idea. I think she would rather let her sisters save her than let her suddenly fall in love."
"Alas - this kind of plot again, modern times have turned into ancient times, right?" Xue Si Nian slumped in the chair and sighed deeply. "I can imagine how it will develop. The heroine suffers from panic disorder, depression and PTSD because of this incident, and the hero becomes her only light. The heroine feels that she cannot disturb his future, so she leaves with harsh words. The overbearing hero does not understand and is cold or mean to the heroine in various ways, but he still revolves around her. In the end, the two are perfectly together in the finale. It's so funny. The hero who only appears for a few seconds is her only light, and he is always with her friends and relatives. Friendship and love are all defenses."
After Xue Si Nian's summary, many works and novels flashed through everyone's minds.
Everyone: “…”
Zheng Qi laughed and said, "You really have seen a lot, haven't you?"
"I read a book by an author when I was young and frivolous. She wrote five books, and in each of them there was a plot where a girl was almost molested. When asked what the male protagonist liked about her, he replied that she was pretty. So I switched to criminal investigation later." Xue Si Nian spread out his hands and shook his head helplessly.
Everyone was speechless, and Chen Xing dropped the half-eaten pudding from the spoon.
Five? It's hard to say that this wasn't intentional.
Wang Baiyue said in shock: "Every book? This author is simply amazing."
Cheng Pei-ya, who specializes in romance, understood it immediately: "Because the author created these two characters with their personalities that would never be together, but she wanted to write about love, so she could only design this kind of dramatic conflict to lock them together, and say to the public that the heroine is forbearing and independent, while the hero who likes good looks is affectionate."
Everyone suddenly understood.
So this is where they feel weird... According to the normal course of events, the two of them have nothing to do with each other. And the woman got hurt not because she was bad, nor because she was good enough, but because she wanted to be with the man...
Chen Xing could not taste the "sweetness", but only sadness and absurdity.
"It's not that characters can't suffer," Xue Si-nian said bluntly, regardless of whether there was a scene or not, "but these sufferings should promote one's own growth. As a result, many works repeatedly recall the sufferings of the heroine in detail, but it is just to establish the other party's personality. I think it's enough."
"Calm down." Zhao Xingyu filled Xue Si Nian's glass. "Since you don't want to write, we won't write either."
Xue Si Nian's frown finally relaxed, and he clinked glasses with Zhao Xingyu, saying with a smile, "I'm not angry either, I'm just speechless."
Chen Xing had just finished eating the caramel pudding. He wiped his mouth and asked the two screenwriters, "What if I let you write it?"
"I will let the heroine start a revenge plan. She will repay them for what they did to her. It would be best if she could use their precarious humanity to kill each other." Xue Si Nian tapped the table. Under the light, her eyes flashed with Huo Liang's light. "I would rather see the judge than the forensic doctor."
This is a writing style that is very characteristic of Xue Si Nian.
Decisive and resolute.
After Xue Si Nian finished speaking, everyone's eyes focused on Zheng Peiya like a spotlight.
Cheng Pei-ya looked around and finally lowered her eyes, speaking softly but firmly: "If I must write a deliberately designed plot to support the emotions, then I would rather let the heroine live an ordinary life. When she occasionally thinks of this incident, she only needs to mention it lightly. Because every time she recalls it, the character will experience pain again. I don't want them to be trapped in the cage of the past forever."
After saying this, she slowly raised her eyes and looked at everyone with clear and firm eyes.
"They should be happy," she said softly.
No wonder in Zheng Peiya's scripts, the memories are all warm things.
Even when it comes to things that make people feel hopeless, she just lets a character say it calmly, like "Things happened, but I'm still standing here", which is more convincing than the character card's single sentence "strong character".
Xue Si Nian hugged Zheng Pei Ya and said loudly: "I really still have to rely on you - without you writing my love scenes, what should I do -"
Zhao Xingyu laughed and said, "They have all turned into emotionless killing machines, right?"
Xue Si Nian rubbed Zheng Peiya's neck and refused to let go. Zheng Peiya patted her back and smiled gently.
Zheng Qi looked at the time and thought it was about time, so he said, "Let's have one last toast to wrap it up."
"good."
Everyone responded, refilled their drinks, and stood up one by one.
Wang Baiyue held the cup, with a hint of anticipation in his eyes, and asked with a smile: "What should I say in the end?"
Everyone hesitated.
Chen Xing couldn't think of any words to end the conversation.
"Then..." Xia Huanming, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke.
Xia Huanming slowly raised his head and his eyes swept across everyone's face.
He spoke softly, his voice gentle but firm: "I wish everyone happiness."
"Okay!" Chen Xing agreed first, repeating with a smile: "Everyone should be happy!"
"yeah--"
The cups clinked together, and the crisp sound spread slowly in the quiet air like ripples.
At 20:15 on the evening of May 19, 2020, someone opened Weibo and found that seven people posted a group photo at the same time.
In the group photo, they stood on both sides of the dining table, holding cups high in their hands, each smiling brightly.
The warm yellow light flowed like honey, casting a soft halo on their faces, with the night faintly visible in the background.
Some netizens asked them if they were having a party?
Another talented netizen answered her: They are inviting the bright moon to drink with them.
