Chapter 262 Illusion
Human memory and feelings are extremely strange.
I clearly remembered the appearance of the little girl I first met yesterday. Even though she has changed with the passage of time, the impression I have of her is still the same.
Unexpectedly, what he never expected was that in an accident on this winter night, the little girl in his memory disappeared without a trace like the summer that could not be retained.
Then, the bright girl with cunning eyes who was pressing on him covered his thin outline with her slender figure, replacing it in an instant.
Being stared at by those purple eyes filled with inexplicable emotions in the dim light, he seemed to no longer be able to remember what she looked like before. Only those eyes that seemed to be smiling were slowly eating away his gradually falling consciousness...
No, it shouldn't be like this.
"Are you... cold?" Feeling his body trembling slightly involuntarily, Su Yun tilted her head slightly, stepped back a little, and put her left ear close to him, seemingly able to hear his chaotic heartbeats through this intimate gesture.
The bit of hair that was bitten off lingered beside the corner of her mouth due to the slight moisture left between her teeth. As she tilted her head, it looked like black hair with a glossy, reflective satin.
The small scratch that scratched the creamy cheek was set off by the warm white skin as gentle as warm jade and ivory under the lamplight, making the black appear darker and the white appear whiter.
Zhuang Long closed his eyes slightly and tried his best to slow down his breathing: "No... I'm not cold."
Seeing his awkward posture of being teased to the point of being flustered but also full of caution, Su Yun, who was lying on him, suddenly lost most of the interest brought by the alcohol. After rubbing her cheek lightly against his cashmere vest to feel the warm and soft fabric, even the original half of the interest was gone.
Originally, I wanted to take this opportunity to tease this guy who always acted like an elder, but I didn't expect that his experience as a gang leader in a play as a child and then in the United States did not help him develop any flirting skills.
Just kissing and touching - no, strictly speaking, it was just a few touches, and the "kisses" were just the itching through the clothes while biting off the hair and gnawing on the buttons, but she already looked as if she had been severely tortured, and her whole body, including her breathing, was disordered.
It makes people feel that they are a dissolute scumbag who flirts with decent married women and men... Su Yun, who has always had strong self-confidence and self-esteem, certainly would not admit that she is a scumbag who would lead bad people astray.
It's all his fault for being two-faced!
While Su Yun was lying there daydreaming about what to do next, Zhuang Long, who was being teased by Su Yun unconsciously, opened his eyes with a troubled look.
He should have pushed the person away or helped him up - but for some reason, he never did anything.
The soft yet noticeable weight on her body, I don't know if it comes from her or the plush clothes she is wearing. It feels delicate and warm, as if it can melt the loneliness and coldness of this winter night.
It's not that he hasn't hugged her before, but that was when she was a child. At that time, it took almost no effort to hold that tiny little girl in his arms. It was like holding a delicately crafted and weighted doll, which always made people appreciate the precious and fragile things.
Things are no longer the same as people, but this "person" seems to be different: from appearance to heart, from size to weight...
The weight of an adult woman, even if she is a celebrity and takes very good care of herself, will be close to the average weight of normal people because of her constant strength training.
The weight of it all seemed to make it hard for him to breathe, and suddenly a strange adjective emerged in his mind that seemed to fit the situation very well: the rest of his life.
What he carries on his shoulders is the weight of the rest of his life.
Suddenly, I felt like I had drunk a big mouthful of boiling water that was so hot that it burned my mouth in the cold winter. From the initial stimulation to the mid-term satisfaction and then to the final warmth lingering around my body, all these emotions were due to the person in front of me.
It seemed that at this moment, he finally saw clearly a fact that he had been ignoring intentionally or unintentionally: the little girl who once walked hand in hand with him in this chaotic world had already grown into a bright and cheerful girl who could walk hand in hand with him in the world.
But for some unspeakable and complicated reasons, he always let himself stay in the past.
His mind was filled with all sorts of mixed traces of the past and the present, and just when he was distressed, the weight on his body suddenly lightened - he looked down subconsciously, and saw Su Yun sitting up from him with a pair of hazy and misty eyes.
Beneath those purple eyes, which the doctor called the mistake of success and the miracle of illness, was a tired pale blue that could not be hidden even by her skin as white as cream and warm as jade.
Yes, according to her real date of birth, she is less than a month away from the legal age of majority in the area.
His gaze slowly swept across Su Yun's half-closed eyelashes and fell on the open hand suspended in the air: just now, his hand moved, as if trying to grasp something that could not be grasped and should not be grasped.
"Luckily you're here, otherwise I would really be worried about leaving like this."
"Don't worry, Susu has been my daughter since she was little, I will take good care of her."
"That's good. I can go peacefully now."
In an instant, the conversation between Zhao Qiming and him before he left came to mind, and followed by a familiar, vague sense of guilt.
Was it because he drank a little tonight that he was lost in the beauty and inexplicable emotions and desires, and to the point that at a time when he shouldn't have been, he threw all morality behind his mind?
"Oops, I bit it off by accident..." Suddenly, Su Yun called out softly, and her green onion-like hands covered her petal-like lips. Then, a small beige round button was handed to her eyes. "Should I sew it back for you or do you want to sew it yourself?"
"I'll do it myself!" Zhuang Long suddenly had an urge to escape, and then he followed his will, grabbed the button of Su Yun's shirt, and rushed out.
"Hey! You..." Hui Qinghong, who was worried about Su Yun and had come back to the room early to check on him, was bumped by him when he rushed out of the door. Before she could see the situation clearly, she saw Zhuang Long, with a red face and disheveled clothes, running away in a hurry.
It was almost like a fleeing posture, as if there was some ferocious beast behind him.
"What are you doing..." Hui Qinghong protected the big bowl that was almost spilled and walked into the room in confusion.
The first scene that came into view was Su Yun sitting on the bed, looking towards the door, smiling foolishly like a cat that had stolen some fish.
It turned out that the boss was drunk and crazy...
Thinking of the fact that Su Yun was Lu Shaolong's direct disciple, she was extremely talented, and could even defeat herself who had been practicing martial arts since she was a child with her instantaneous explosive power. Hui Qinghong immediately imagined how Zhuang Long was beaten up by the drunk Su Yun, and how he was so scared that their friendship turned sour that he fled in panic...
"Come, I prepared some sobering tea for you." Hui Qinghong greeted.
Su Yun put away the ambiguous smile on her face, thanked Hui Qinghong for making her sobering tea, and then took the bowl of warm soup and drank it all.
Even after falling asleep, Su Yun still couldn't forget what happened tonight: Oh, I was attracted by the appearance of a man, let's see if I can develop a relationship with the mature and serious man I like...
Unexpectedly, this guy only appears mature on the outside but is actually young on the inside. It can be said that he is the wrong customer for the product!
She felt as if she had corrupted a good young man...it seemed that she was not good enough to be a yellow-skinned tree mynah.
Su Yun tossed and turned in bed, and Zhuang Long also didn't sleep well.
Zhuang Long habitually ignored the snoring of the dragon and tiger martial artists, which was like a human symphony. With mixed feelings, he turned over on the wooden bed covered with half-new bedding.
It is inevitable that young people are misled by external things and make mistakes.
What the adults around them should do is to guide and educate them, instead of being fascinated by this youthful temptation and sinking into it...
Therefore, the two of them felt that they had ruined each other, and when they were filming the next day, they seemed to have lost the previous close tacit understanding.
After finishing this scene, Zhuang Long sat down to rest for a while, flipped through the script again... Finally, he couldn't help but stand up and walked towards where Su Yun was.
At this time, Su Yun was surrounded by a group of villagers who wanted to worship the gods.
I don’t know which gossipy fellow said that in Hong Kong, Su Yun was a “wealth woman” who could be placed on the altar and worshipped. She had extremely good luck and was very good at blessing people. Therefore, many superstitious villagers who still had policies and countermeasures during those years believed this and wanted to come and worship her whenever they had time…
Especially when I see her dressed as a goddess, I feel happy from the bottom of my heart.
Although Su Yun also understood that they had been suppressed for years, and that worshipping gods was actually a special way of psychological comfort passed down, and that she should understand their behavior - but after seeing the villagers getting her photos from the crew members and spare copies of the goddess picture props and hanging them on the walls of their homes... she really couldn't help herself.
The villagers, on the other hand, seemed particularly happy about this matter: it is still not appropriate to worship gods ostentatiously nowadays, but this picture of the goddess looks very much like an art painting and has a legitimate source, so if it is hung on the wall and someone comes to check, it can be easily fooled!
I finally got to worship God this year!
I remember that in the 1987 version of Journey to the West, the actors who played Guanyin and gods were "borrowed" by many businesses in the 1980s and 1990s to make various statues, photos, and even Tiandi Bank's only designated currency portraits. There were even anecdotes of people being mistaken for gods when traveling. In the end, Su Yun could only sigh deeply: Just think of them worshipping the goddess Yun Su, not me...
