Because Qian Duo had applied for a leave of absence before, Xie Jinzhi did not return to the dormitory at noon, but just found a place to meet Qian Duo.
During the military training in the morning, Xie Jinzhi was also thinking about Qian Duo's matter. He was the kind of person who would definitely solve problems when they came his way. Even for him, even if the previous events became a shadow, he would choose to face them.
But Qian Duo was different. He seemed carefree and easygoing, but in fact he was also very loyal and righteous. Whenever he had problems, Qian Duo was the first to rush up and comfort him. He was used to bringing happiness to others, but in fact, he was the one who had the hardest time getting over it.
About twenty minutes later, Xie Jinzhi was sitting in the milk tea shop where they had agreed to meet and saw Qian Duo wandering outside the door. He looked at the clerk, pointed at him and asked if he wanted pearl milk tea. Xie Jinzhi nodded.
When he nodded, the wind chimes on the door moved, followed by the waiter's cordial greeting, and then a clear response could be heard until Xie Jinzhi turned his gaze away.
"Are you here?" His voice was flat, and so was Qian Duo, with a tired look on his face. He then sat down and smiled when he saw the pearl milk tea on the table that he had already drunk.
"Here it is, pearl milk tea again?" He looked at the waiter coming and casually ordered a cup of cheese milk cap. There was unconcealable fatigue between his brows. Finally, Xie Jinzhi spoke.
"What do you mean?" Qian Duo went to see a psychologist today. Xie Jinzhi knew about this in advance. Since that incident, they avoided talking about it, but everyone knew it in their hearts, but they just didn't say it out loud. These words were buried in their hearts.
Qian Duo leaned against the soft back of a stool in the store and smiled. His eyes were not as bright as usual. He then just shook his head slightly, looked at Xie Jinzhi and slowly replied, "Nothing serious."
He spoke softly, as if nothing really happened, but Xie Jin knew that he was in a state of irritability. He would remain in this state every time after seeing a psychiatrist, for at least a whole day.
"Forget it, let's hypnotize you." Xie Jinzhi said without looking into his eyes. He had been thinking about this decision. Although he had not yet come to terms with it, the situation he faced was not as bad as Qian Duo's. He only needed Qian Duo's consent. Then he might abandon everything he had. Forgetting was more difficult than remembering.
Hearing Xie Jinzhi's words, Qian Duo raised his eyes and looked at him. In just a moment, he smiled again, looking indifferent and nonchalant, "It's really okay!"
Seeing that Qian Duo himself was unwilling, Xie Jinzhi sighed, then looked at him and nodded, "It's up to you, but do you remember what he said?"
The milk cap was white, dotted with chocolate crumbs. Qian Duo stared at it in a daze. "What did you say?"
His tone was so soft, so soft that if Xie Jinzhi didn't listen carefully, she would think she had misheard. "Performance is supreme. The actor serves the role."
This sentence brought the two people's thoughts back to the past. At that time, Qian Duo and he were both excellent acting talents. Bu Xian even praised them many times and was willing to accept them as his disciples.
I remember that when Qian Duo chose that scene, he was still worried about his condition, because Qian Duo knew that once he really got into the role, in a depressing environment, there would definitely be problems.
But later, Qian Duo was also persuaded, and Xie Jinzhi trusted their abilities as actors, ignoring that as a director, it was also important to pay attention to the actors themselves.
In the end, everything changed after that tragedy. In fact, in the early stages of its creation, "Ten Killing Orders" emphasized the friendship between friends. In the end, Su Xiao and Qin Mingyue became true friends regardless of the righteous and evil ways.
They love the world in their own way, and they also love performing art in their own way.
At this time, Qian Duo just listened with his head down, thinking and pondering.
Seeing him remain silent, Xie Jinzhi knew that he had listened, and that he had taken it in. The ice cubes in the milk tea on the table had almost melted, so Xie Jinzhi shook the quilt and drank the rest of the milk tea.
The quilt slammed onto the table with a clang. "Do you know why I've been paying attention to Wen Ruanruan?"
"It's because you're good-looking!" Qian Duo looked at Xie Jinzhi with a smile, his gossipy face revealing his change of mood at the moment.
Since it was a joke with someone he knew, Xie Jinzhi didn't think there was anything wrong with it. But seeing him like this, Xie Jinzhi sighed.
"You know the drawbacks of the experience-based school better than I do." Xie Jinzhi paused for a second after saying this, then looked at him with a hint of ridicule: "As for you... don't think I don't know."
He deliberately dragged out the words with a faint smile on his face, which was then noticed by some girls who came to the store to buy milk tea, causing a small sensation. Fortunately, no one came forward to disturb him.
Qian Duo shook the remaining milk cap and smiled, "You are different."
What he said was different because his current feelings were different. Xie Jinzhi was not a person who liked to contact or even communicate deeply with others, but when facing Wen Runruan, many things began to become different from before. Looking at Xie Jinzhi's appearance at this moment, Qian Duo just felt strange.
When Xie Jinzhi was a child, the precocious boy once thought that this person would end up living alone. However, as an observer, he also felt that it was a bit magical after seeing the communication and contact between Wen Runruan and Xie Jinzhi.
"At first, I thought it was not a wise move for Wen Runruan to confess to you, but Wen Runruan is very lucky. She is an experiential person, which gave you a sense of redemption. You wanted to help her and help her out of the drama. But, Xie Jinzhi, you are in trouble." Qian Duo drank the last of the milk cap, then smiled and looked at Xie Jinzhi.
He always speaks directly, which is also due to the fact that he has been with Xie Jinzhi for a long time. Xie Jinzhi does not intend to deny Qian Duo's words, but his education since childhood has made him accustomed to evaluating any problem when facing it. His rare rationality finally allowed him to temporarily stabilize his state.
Whether it was love or frequent contact, Xie Jin didn't know. It was the first time for him to like someone. He was such a rational and talented person, but when faced with feelings, he would be at a loss like a babbling toddler.
Knowing what Xie Jinzhi was struggling with, Qian Duo looked at the girls standing nearby and pointed with his chin at one of them who looked like someone who met Xie Jinzhi's aesthetic standards. "What do you think?"
Qian Duo's gaze deflected him, and then he subconsciously looked over and nodded: "Not bad, but..."
Xie Jinzhi didn't need to say the rest. Qian Duo sat up straight, looked at him and said with a smile, "But, she's not as cute as Wen Ruan, and she's not as likable as her."
After saying this, Qian Duo slumped his back again, then looked at Xie Jinzhi jokingly, his eyes full of understanding.
