Chapter 14 "Che, your girlfriend is here." Cross-border online love, cross...
.
Chi Leyou stretched out the corners of his mouth and yawned quickly before it was about to burst.
She opened the door of the martial arts hall with familiarity, and the early sun followed her in, casting a faint shadow on the maple wood floor.
The dust particles in the air developed wildly.
The late Ren Mi ran into the martial arts hall and glanced at the huge floor-to-ceiling window - her friend was lying on the window glass in a suction cup position.
"Ha——" White steam came out of Chi Leyou's mouth, and he held a crumpled English newspaper in his hand.
Ren Mi caught a glimpse of the headline in the newspaper: "China... Film Queen... Du..." Before she could take a closer look, she muttered:
Chi Leyou pressed the newspaper containing Du Yuanshan's news against the glass.
"Oh my god, this is a window-cleaning method that has been lost for many years by elementary school students!" Ren Mi suppressed the urge to read the newspaper and was startled.
Chi Leyou teased Ren Mi about her experience as a primary school student immigrating to Maple Leaf Country: "Teacher Ye taught us the secrets of window cleaning, and you, a little foreigner, didn't forget your roots."
"You sound like you're not a foreigner. Aren't you standing on foreign territory now?" Ren Mi picked up a piece of newspaper, crumpled it violently, and helped her friend clean the window.
"I am a Young Pioneer with a strong family background, an outstanding member of the Communist Youth League, and a Party member in spirit." Chi Leyou was like one of the first elementary school students to wear a red scarf. "How could I forget my roots?"
"..." Ren Mi was speechless.
"I don't know whose passport has been changed to the Maple Leaf Country." Chi Leyou glanced at her and suddenly emphasized, "It's not me."
"I have been corrupted by capitalism, okay, lady!" Ren Mi gave up.
They were classmates in elementary school.
I've copied homework, resold My Little Pony, and ate three starch sausages and had a life-and-death relationship with them.
Why is it “three”?
Chi Leyou and Ren Mi picked up two Ultraman cards at the stationery store in front of the school.
Ren Mi despised: "It's not My Little Pony, it can't be sold at a high price."
"You must believe in the power of light," Chi Leyou blew away the dust from the card and looked out, "Watch me!"
Ren Mi's puzzled gaze followed the ponytail that was swinging left and right.
Chi Leyou stopped at the curb, tilted her head to the left, and let her ponytail fall over her right shoulder.
"Hey—" She tapped the boy's round shoulder with her left fingertips. When he turned to her, she quickly switched to her right hand, curling her five fingers and speaking in a familiar voice, "Classmate, are you from Class 302?"
The little boy wearing glasses raised his chin, clear and stupid eyes emerged from behind the lenses, and he nodded honestly.
"You must like Ultraman!" Chi Leyou said confidently.
The little boy shook his head, saying he only liked Lego and yo-yo.
"What's so fun about yo-yos!" Chi Leyou's voice was low, but it was enough to bewitch her. "You're starting to like Ultraman now! One is 5 yuan, and two together are 20% off! Do you have money with you, classmate?"
The two Ultraman cards turned twice in her hands, and Chi Leyou played cards like her gambling father.
She took a step forward.
The early summer sun shone through the lush sycamore trees, and the spots of light fell on the glare card surface, blinding the little boy.
As if possessed by a ghost, the little boy closed his eyes and shook his chin slightly.
Chi Le Youxi: "Deal!"
Ren Mi's chin hit the ground.
One dares to sell, the other dares to buy.
.
During school hours, the school gate was crowded. Xiaopang was standing awkwardly on the curb, holding two Ultraman cards.
He only had a ten-yuan note, and his good classmate had no change.
So, she reluctantly accepted ten dollars from him.
Chi Leyou spent a huge sum of five yuan to buy an extra-large starch sausage, and he and Ren Mi each had a bite.
With greasy spots on the corners of her mouth, she saw Xiaopang's miserable appearance, and in the humanistic spirit of caring for customers, the after-sales Xiaochi generously offered him a grilled sausage.
——"Hey, please eat."
Xiaopang's upbringing made him politely refuse, even though he had never eaten starch sausage.
"It's delicious!" Chi Leyou was enthusiastic. If she were at work, she would rotate between pre-sales and after-sales positions and still win the title of top ten employees.
"You bite this end, I haven't tasted it before." The good classmate was enthusiastic, turning the bamboo skewers in various ways and presenting the plump and fragrant grilled sausage: "It has a lot of cumin powder."
He'd inexplicably spent ten yuan on two discarded cards. A bite wouldn't be too much, right? The worms in his stomach surrendered, and the fat kid, already rebellious, pursed his lips. "Is it spicy?"
“Not spicy! Super delicious!”
So, the little fat boy who was growing up took a big gulp.
"..." He ate so much! He bit off three yuan in one bite! Chi Leyou was shocked.
Ren Mi, another founding member of the company, returned to visit a client and asked, "Xiaopang, why don't you go home?"
“My driver is stuck in traffic ahead.” The little boy’s eyes fixed, and he pursed his lips. “My name is not Xiaopang, my name is Shen Xiaoxi.”
My family? Driver? Small loading.
"Ha, I guessed half right. Both have 'xiao' in them, Xiaopang." Chi Leyou glanced at the bus stop sign. Why hasn't bus No. 12 arrived yet? "My driver is stuck in traffic too."
Fatty Shen didn't agree with the nickname and said gloomily, "Oh."
Route 12 struggled to squeeze into the encirclement.
Chi Leyou shouted: "The car is coming!"
Woo la - primary school students in the stationery store swarmed out like bees, their red scarves drawing a light red light and shadow. Chi Leyou and Ren Mi squeezed onto the bus and successfully grabbed a seat in the back row.
"Why doesn't this idiot get on the bus?" There was a bus lined up right in front of the school gate. Chi Leyou poked his head out of the bus and shouted, "Little Fatty! Get on the bus! The driver is here!"
The bus driver must have been a supporting actor in his previous life, so he kindly opened the door.
Xiaopang: “…”
The phone watch rang at the right time.
The bus was stopped at the zebra crossing by auxiliary police, and all the children on the bus were staring at Xiaopang's wrist.
Not a little genius.
"He's wearing an Apple Watch." Ren Mi's eyes widened.
The next second, Xiaopang came jogging forward with his schoolbag on his back.
Cross the bus.
Rushed towards the mobile patrol/riot vehicle parked at the school gate.
I turned around and found that no one was waiting for me.
The car door is open.
"Xiaoxi, your driver was rear-ended and is cooperating with the traffic police to handle the accident scene. Captain Shen was on a temporary mission, and he was afraid that you would run around."
The young special police officer in police uniform had never come into contact with the little boy before, so he hurriedly stood up and asked the fat boy to get in the car.
"We still have patrol missions, so we can't send you home first. Please sit for a while."
"It's okay, Uncle Chen. I'll do my homework first."
Xiaopang got on the car lightly, just like Cinderella wearing crystal shoes and getting on the pumpkin carriage.
Chi Leyou, who was squeezed on the bus, could not hear their conversation.
She only knew that she was a suspect and forced Xiaopang to buy two cards.
And the silly little fat boy knows the public security special police.
Will that idiot call the police to arrest her?
How many years in jail will you go to for defrauding ten dollars?
Chi Leyou's chin fell freely to the ground and smashed through the center of the earth.
The overwhelming stomachache quickly buried my uneasy heart.
That night, Chi Leyou was sent to the emergency room by his gambling father.
I met Ren Mi in the emergency department, who was also suffering from vomiting and diarrhea.
Three days later, the two reappeared in school and killed everyone, but found that Xiaopang's seat was empty.
A new classmate who had just been in the class for a week disappeared mysteriously again.
No one cares.
Except Chi Leyou: "Do you think Xiaopang will die?"
Ren Mi had three black lines on her forehead: "Fat people are usually hard to kill."
“…”
.
After Xiaopang died (crossed out) - after transferring to another school, her good friend Ren Mi also hurriedly transferred to another school.
This time, it was transferred abroad.
In the first grade, Ren Mi's father cheated on her, and Ren Mi's mother decisively divorced;
In the second grade, Ren Mi Ma fell in love online across borders;
In the third grade, Ren Mi's mother took her on a cross-border date.
Good news: the other party is not a pig-killing scam.
Bad news: Ren Mi changed her name to Mia Tremblay and now has a foreign father.
"Alright," Chi Leyou, who had reunited with her friend in a foreign country two years ago, wiped his forehead after wiping the glass and said to Ren Mi's angry face, "You infiltrate the enemy and share the enemy situation with your best friend."
Ren Mi was easy to coax and stood up: "Of course! There's a job today! The hourly wage is very high, do you want to go?"
"go!"
Friends throw the address.
"I signed you up! They're looking for experienced extras! And you, my smart, beautiful, and lively friend! You! Just fit the bill."
A TV drama extra? Chi Leyou curled his lips, his eyes confused: "I've never acted before, zero experience."
Ren Mi was like a worm in her stomach, and she shut her mouth with one sentence: "Didn't you just play a turkey?"
“…”
Ren Mi's mother practices martial arts, and Ren Mi's stepfather practices boxing.
After they got married, they started a new business - they bought a venue and opened a martial arts school and boxing gym called "Tremblay Kung Fu Club".
The main feature is a combination of Chinese and Western styles.
Ren Mi’s leg skills are not so good, but she has a tall figure and a bit of the heroic spirit of Mulan.
Ren Mi's mother wants to train her daughter to be an actor.
She pays annual fees to the local actors' union, and relevant personnel will recommend suitable roles. Ren Mi has played several small roles with close-ups but no lines.
The last time, the other party asked Ren Mi to act as a stand-in - dressed up as an imperial soldier. Ren Mi was unhappy, and she scolded the other party and went on strike on the spot.
She pushed Chi Leyou on the back and sent him to the C-train: "Don't worry, there will be no Baga pressure this time. I have asked for everything."
"I don't know Kung Fu, how can I play a stunt double?" Chi Leyou mixed in with the passengers of various skin colors and waved quickly to his friend.
As the warm sun rose, her skin was bathed in light, different from the local white people who loved sunbathing and had honey-colored skin.
After living in the Maple Leaf Country for more than two years, her skin has not been eroded by ultraviolet rays and remains smooth and lustrous.
"Don't worry, I won't let you act like Missy Missy!" Ren Mi's voice followed into the C-train carriage.
Chi Leyou cupped his hands together, forming a trumpet shape, his expression anxious, like a hummingbird that couldn't find nectar: "Tearing and ripping won't work!!!"
.
A long construction site warning fence has been erected on the newly built subway line.
Some staff members held up a sign of an actors' union at the subway entrance.
Chi Leyou stepped forward to meet him.
"Leyou Chi?" After checking the information, the staff member shouted down the corridor, "Finally, someone has arrived. A beautiful girl."
The echo echoed: "Which country?"
"Asian!"
"Great! We're saved! Let her come down and do the special effects makeup!"
Special effects makeup??? Chi Leyou's eyes darted around.
What movie is this? She should have brought makeup remover.
She had nothing in her hands, and there were only grilled sausages and custard buns in her canvas bag.
The further down you go, the more lively it becomes.
Sunshades, tripods, slides, and all kinds of filming equipment are set up in the subway station.
Chi Leyou held the canvas bag tightly and walked sideways past the photographer and lighting technician who were arguing fiercely.
Moving forward, I saw two staff members lying on the ground, tearing off super glue and marking the actors' movements.
Everyone does their job and no one cares about an Asian-looking extra.
On one side of the set, a man was sitting diagonally on a low stool below the viewfinder.
He had headphones on his head and a laser pointer in his hand.
The laser pointer cast a red dot on the wall, and the man was talking to a short foreigner sitting on the ground.
The red dot jumped around, and Chi Leyou's eyes followed the red dot as it moved in the subway station.
"Hey——" Chi Leyou mustered up his courage and said to the back of the man's shiny black head, "Hello, Director."
The short foreigner looked up when he heard this.
Facing a clear Asian face.
The little girl had long straight black hair and dark eyes that sparkled as she stared at the man next to him who was wearing headphones.
Also Asian.
The foreigner's eyes moved back and forth between the two of them.
Ding—my eyes light up.
"Che, your girlfriend is here." The foreigner cheered for his great discovery.
Shen Che didn’t hear clearly, he took off his headphones, followed the director’s gaze, and turned his head blankly.
To facilitate filming, the lighting inside the subway station was dim.
The photography and lighting, which had been arguing fiercely just now, died down.
In this battle, the lighting technician won.
Da—he pressed the switch, and a beam of light mist lit up and gathered around Chi Leyou.
The girl's pupils, which had just adapted to the dim light, shrank and she closed her eyes.
After a few seconds, Shen Che saw clearly the canvas bag that the girl was holding in her arms.
There is a little bird printed on it.
The bird seemed to be vibrating its wings along with the girl's nervous movements.
The set is now in chaos, all gray and black.
Everything around was silent and pale.
Shen Che held his breath, thinking there must be something wrong with his eyes. He could see the bright world again.
Should I trust the light? His eyes followed the titmouse illuminated by the light. Its wings were so lifelike, and its bright orange beak was even more vivid.
The moment he raised his eyes slightly.
The girl adjusted to the light and slowly opened her eyes.
His pupils trembled, and the tit transformed into a human form, occupying his eye sockets.
