Chapter 25 Could it be that Bai Yueguang?
"Crack! Passed! Perfect!"
Nian Ge's excited voice rang out amidst the aftermath of Chi Cheng's shrill and desperate roar, with a sense of relief and excitement.
The set instantly came alive.
The lighting team began to turn off the lights, and the props team quickly cleaned up the "rainwater" pipes on the ground. The noise of people became noisy, breaking the suffocating silence just now.
Chi Cheng was still slumped on the cold and wet ground.
He maintained the posture Wu Suowei had when he finally pushed him away, leaning against the wall of the apartment building, his head slightly lowered, and the wet hair on his forehead covering his eyes.
Wu Suowei stood in the shadow of the corridor a few steps away, with his back to the chaotic set.
The desperate roar was still buzzing in his head, making his heart numb and his fingertips cold.
He turned around slowly.
His eyes fell on the figure curled up in the corner, as if abandoned by the whole world.
He had never seen Chi Cheng like this before.
In his previous life, even if he was so angry that he jumped up and down, Chi Cheng would at most press him against the wall with a gloomy look in his eyes, or when he was upset, he would drink alone in the villa, exuding a low pressure that kept strangers away.
It's definitely not like what's happening right now... the whole person is completely destroyed from the inside, leaving only emptiness and despair.
Why?
Wu Suowei's heart felt like it was being tightened by something, and it ached violently.
Is it because of what Brother Nian said?
"He doesn't want you anymore..."
"He's fed up with you..."
"He never wants to see you again..."
…
What did Chi Cheng just think of?
What could make a man like him express such deep despair?
Chi Cheng's mind was in a mess.
The icy temperature seeped into his skin through the thin costume, but it was far less chilling than the overwhelming chill in his heart.
That surge of despair just now wasn't all an act.
When the thought of "losing Wu Suowei" was infinitely magnified by Brother Nian, and when Wu Suowei stood silently by the side, the feeling was too real, and instantly aroused the deepest fear in his soul.
He didn't want to do it again.
Absolutely not.
The days of being abandoned by the whole world and left with only memories and loneliness are more terrifying than death.
Just thinking about it was enough to suffocate him.
Wu Suowei looked at Chi Cheng's deathly expression. He hesitated for a moment, then took uncontrollable steps and slowly walked to Chi Cheng's side.
Chi Cheng seemed unaware of anything and was still immersed in his own world.
Wu Suowei pursed his lips, tentatively reached out his hand, and cautiously and with a touch of comfort, gently patted Chi Cheng's wet shoulder.
The movement was gentle and hesitant.
"Hello……"
Almost the moment Wu Suowei's hand touched his shoulder——
Chi Cheng suddenly raised his head!
The pair of eyes that were originally empty and desperate suddenly burst into a lost light when they saw Wu Suowei's face so close to them.
Wu Suowei didn't even see his movements clearly, he just felt dizzy.
The next second, he was thrown into a wet yet warm embrace.
He was almost unable to breathe.
Chi Cheng used all his strength to hold him tightly in his arms. His wet costume stuck to Wu Suowei's dry clothes. The cold rain and Chi Cheng's hot body temperature formed a strange touch.
Chi Cheng buried his face deeply in Wu Suowei's neck, his breathing trembling as if he had survived a disaster, burning his skin.
The broken and hoarse voice, with its undisguised fragility, muffled into Wu Suowei's ears.
"Don't leave me..."
Wu Suowei's whole body was stiff and his mind was blank.
The breath coming from the crook of his neck, Chi Cheng's uncontrollable trembling, and the fear and pleading that could not be dispelled in that hoarse voice...
All this was like a heavy hammer, hitting his heart hard.
Reason screams: Push him away! He's crazy! He's dangerous!
But... my body betrayed my will.
His stiff arms slowly rose up amidst Chi Cheng's desperate embrace and trembling, and finally he gently hugged Chi Cheng's back.
Feeling Wu Suowei's subtle movements, Chi Cheng's mouth, which was buried in the crook of his neck, curled up into a nearly imperceptible arc of success.
He turned his head slightly, looked over Wu Suowei's shoulder, and cast his eyes accurately at Brother Nian who was touching his chin not far away with an expression of "I'm so awesome" on his face.
When Brother Nian received Chi Cheng's gaze, he immediately understood what he meant. He raised his eyebrows proudly, raised his hand and casually brushed the non-existent hair on his forehead, putting on an attitude of "hiding his achievements and fame".
The smile in Chi Cheng's eyes deepened, then quickly faded. He hugged the person in his arms tighter, rubbed his chin against Wu Suowei's hair, and his voice was still a little hoarse and pitiful: "Don't hide from me..."
Wu Suowei felt itchy on his neck from being rubbed by him, and his heart was in a mess.
Don't hide from him?
But what should he do about his relationship with Chi Cheng?
The look of Chi Cheng's collapse just now, and this fragile yet stubborn hug at this moment...
He had to admit that he felt distressed seeing Chi Cheng like this.
The inexplicable feeling towards Chi Cheng that had been deliberately suppressed began to stir again.
But……
In his previous life, when he was entangled by the yellow dragon, the feeling of suffocation was like a thorn that pierced deep into his heart.
He will never be able to rest in peace until this thorn is removed.
Conflicting emotions tore at him.
He took a deep breath and tried to create some space from Chi Cheng's arms so that he could ask the questions in his heart.
He raised his head and looked into Chi Cheng's eyes, which were still wet and misty, and spoke in a low voice.
"You were really...devoted to your acting just now..." He paused, observing Chi Cheng's expression, "Are you...thinking of...the one you love?"
He used a deliberately vague reference.
Chi Cheng's hand holding his paused slightly, and a complex and indistinguishable emotion flashed across the depths of his eyes.
He was silent for a few seconds, his Adam's apple rolled, and then he responded softly: "...Yeah."
Wu Suowei's heart sank suddenly.
really.
Chi Cheng has someone in his heart.
Someone who could make him lose his composure so much, so painful and desperate.
Could it be... the so-called... white moonlight?
A sour feeling surged up uncontrollably, with a hint of self-mockery.
The pain I felt just now was like a joke.
He suppressed the discomfort in his heart and continued to ask, trying to sound calm: "So... what did you just think of? Was it... that person... who left you?"
He stared at Chi Cheng's eyes, trying to catch any clue.
Chi Cheng's eyes seemed to drift away for a moment, with a pain that was engraved into his bones.
He avoided Wu Suowei's inquiring gaze, his voice low and hoarse, filled with deep fatigue.
"...At that time...everyone left me, and I was the only one left."
At that time?
All left?
Only one person left?
Wu Suowei's mind was working rapidly.
In my previous life, before I died, I didn’t hear anyone leaving Chi Cheng except...?
