Chapter 3 Traitor Jiang Shen
Jiang Shen tilted his head to the side, his eyes widening as he looked at Ren Fenghe intently.
Ren Fenghe had sorted out all of Jiang Shen's videos, and he knew exactly what emotions his micro-expressions represented.
This is surprising.
ha! You must be hurt by your daughter calling you "uncle"!
Ren Fenghe knew that her action was childish, but she just couldn't control herself.
"You..." Jiang Shen said in a long voice.
The drawn-out tone made Ren Fenghe begin to worry whether she had exposed herself.
She was a little panicked for a moment, and her hands behind her back couldn't help but pick at her clothes.
But the scene of being questioned that she imagined did not appear. Jiang Shen still smiled lightly, and his voice was gentle. He pointed to the bathroom and said, "Wash up first. Breakfast will be ready after you wash up."
Ren Fenghe breathed a sigh of relief instantly.
She wanted to wait until Jiang Shen left before taking any action, so she hesitated.
"Can I help you?"
Jiang Shen opened the bathroom door and saw Ren Fenghe still standing by the door, and asked.
Ren Fenghe firmly refused and shook his head.
Jiang Shen said: "Okay, I'll be in the kitchen, call me anytime if you need me."
Ren Fenghe looked at Jiang Shen's back depressedly as he walked towards the kitchen.
The feeling of betrayal had not yet gone away, and the feeling of grievance followed closely.
From what Jiang Shen said, it is not difficult to see that he is a good parent who respects his children, is willing to cultivate their independence but also gives them enough sense of security.
But before he became a good parent, he was first and foremost a dedicated idol. How come his identity changed so quickly?
Ren Fenghe once again felt the world turning upside down.
She didn't go into the bathroom immediately. She waited until the kitchen range hood started to sound, then ran to the dining table and picked up Jiang Shen's cell phone.
The screen lights up. It’s mid-December, half a month after the MAMA Awards Ceremony.
She slept until half a month later.
Ren Fenghe wanted to know more about the little girl, but Jiang Shen had locked his phone with a password.
She put her phone down in disappointment, glanced around the living room to make sure there was no second device on which she could search for information, and shuffled into the bathroom.
Being a kid, everything becomes a hassle.
But no matter how troublesome it is, it is much more convenient than before.
Ren Fenghe looked up at the sink that was too high for her, moved the step stool in the bathroom to the sink, and stepped on it.
Looking at the little girl in the mirror, Ren Fenghe fell into thought.
She had no clear idea of what a child should look like at certain age, but the little girl in the mirror, no matter how she looked at it, was at least three years old.
In other words, Jiang Shen had a child at least three years ago, and he kept it a secret, without leaking any information.
Three years ago, Ren Fenghe fell in love with amanecer.
The little girl in the mirror had a pale face, not much flesh on her cheeks, and was very thin and small. She really couldn't conclude that the little girl was living a good life.
Can we infer that the reason why no news about the little girl was revealed was because Jiang Shen never cared about this little girl?
Think about it, Jiang Shen looked surprised when she called him "uncle", but he did not correct the address. Doesn't it mean that Jiang Shen knew that his daughter was not familiar with him, so she called him uncle?
The reason why they are able to respect children and seek their opinions instead of making decisions directly for them may just be a habit cultivated through years of team activities.
Where is the little girl's mother? If dad doesn’t take care of me, will mom not take care of me either?
Ren Fenghe really didn't know which one was more unbelievable to her: Jiang Shen having a child or having a child but not taking good care of it.
It may be the latter. After all, the former is the animal instinct of men who cannot control their genitals and expose them, while the latter is purely a moral issue.
Disappointed that she actually fell in love with such a person.
Ren Fenghe brushed her teeth and washed up absentmindedly, recalling the moment she fell in love with Amanecer and Jiang Shen.
It was less than half a year since her accident. During this period, her emotions went through a roller coaster-like change and her personality changed greatly.
Her life was completely changed overnight. She had emotional breakdowns every day, yelling and smashing things, refusing anyone to approach her. She had an extremely hot temper and could only vent the pain in her body with vicious words. Anyone who approached her would be stabbed by her.
"Everyone can say this kind of nonsense, but don't you have a leg to try it out? Stop pretending!" This is the sentence she says most often.
When she realized that everything was irreversible and she could only live with prosthetic limbs for the rest of her life, she was still easily angered, but she rarely used her blunt words to hurt those who cared about her, and the ignited anger would be suppressed and burned in her body.
She no longer liked to speak. The anger burning in her body ignited the candle of her self-esteem. Every time someone supported her and looked at her with sympathy, the candle burned shorter and shorter.
Finally, she completely accepted that she was a waste. Everything in life was no longer fun for her. She could no longer pick up her past hobbies. She would cry for no reason every day when she didn't think about anything. She began to search for a way to leave this world peacefully and without pain.
It was at this time that she accidentally saw a video by Amanecer. The cover of the video showed several members sitting in a row, breathing oxygen, and letting the staff wrap bandages around them.
Looking at the bandages wrapped around their shoulders and ankles, and their pale faces that looked exactly like hers, Ren Fenghe clicked on the video for some reason.
That was a fan-edited documentary of amanecer's Japan tour.
At that time, amanecer had debuted for 3 years. He was very popular in Japan and also had a small reputation in South Korea, but he didn't make much of a splash in China.
This documentary records the period when they toured various cities in Japan to further expand their popularity in Japan.
Rather than recording their brilliance on stage, the documentary edited by this fan focuses more on the difficulties behind the scenes.
A three-hour concert, plus the rehearsal time of the day, means they have to sing and dance for a total of four or even five hours a day. The next day, they will move to another city to adapt to the new performance venue, and sing and dance for a long time again a few days later. With such high intensity, the bodies of every member of Amanecer begin to protest.
The video opens with the members taking a break and returning to the backstage exhausted.
Even with makeup on their faces, one could still see that the members were tired. They could only respond weakly to questions from the staff around them by nodding or shaking their heads. Tears appeared uncontrollably on their tired bodies, and as soon as they lowered their heads, the tears would fall straight to the ground.
Even so, when they returned to the stage after the intermission, they still performed at their best, not letting fans see their weakness, like a candle that is almost burned out, still emitting plenty of light before it is completely burned out.
The scenes kept switching, and Ren Fenghe was immersed in the video.
Finally, we come to the last concert.
Before the concert, Jiang Shen was lying on the sofa backstage. She hadn't put on any makeup yet, but her face was extremely red, and her body was covered with plasters and bandages.
Hearing the staff coming over, he opened his eyes, supported himself on the sofa and stood up, took the water and medicine from the staff and swallowed them in one gulp.
He was the one with the most bandages among all the members present, and he even had to take painkillers to relieve the pain.
It is not easy for Chinese green card holders to debut in Korea. The Chinese green card men who can debut in Korea are basically because the companies value their martial arts foundation and ability to perform difficult moves.
Therefore, Jiang Shen was basically responsible for all the difficult and acrobatic stunts in the troupe.
You have to practice countless times to get the perfect move. Before the tour, he always had injuries one after another. During this month-long Japan tour, he became a tight string in order to present the most perfect performance and avoid mistakes in his movements.
Finally, just before the end, the string could no longer be kept tight, resulting in a high fever for several days.
The members were very worried about Jiang Shen and advised him to just take a rest before the last game.
Jiang Shen shook his head and comforted his teammates, saying, "It's okay, I'm not upset. Fans have overcome many difficulties to come to the venue. My absence will make fans who like our group's performance and who like me sad and upset."
Ren Fenghe admitted that the reason why she fell in love with Amanecer was a bit strange and a bit perverted. She fell in love with them because of the team's pain.
But she knew that the reason why she always liked this group was that even though they were in pain, they would still get up from the practice room again and again for their fans and ambitions.
so.
Ren Fenghe spat out the water in his mouth, washed his face, and put the stepping stool away.
Therefore, Jiang Shen feels sorry for his teammates, sorry for his fans, and even more sorry for himself who sacrificed his health for his debut and the stage.
The person who once said in a live broadcast, "Everyone in the team is responsible for different areas, and everyone has their own hardships. I am not the hardest working one. Besides, although my moves are difficult, it is also because of this that I attract everyone who likes me, isn't it?" has completely disappeared.
Ren Fenghe returned to the small living room, climbed onto the dining table chair, and silently looked at the dining table that was at the level of her chin.
This world is really unfriendly to children, Ren Fenghe thought.
At this time, Jiang Shen happened to come out of the kitchen with a bowl of noodles. Seeing Ren Fenghe sitting quietly on a chair waiting for food without making any noise, he smiled with his eyes curved.
"I'll bring your dining chair over here," Jiang Shen put the hot noodles away from Ren Fenghe and said, "The noodles are very hot, don't touch them until I come back, okay?"
When Ren Fenghe saw Jiang Shen, he gritted his teeth in his heart, but in reality he could only nod with a poker face.
Jiang Shen turned on the small fan on the dining table and blew it towards the noodles. He walked to the entrance and after a while, he moved a children's dining chair over.
He placed the dining chair at the main seat of the dining table, pinched Ren Fenghe's armpits and carried him to the chair.
Ren Fenghe was as stiff as a piece of wood and allowed him to hold her.
Jiang Shen put Ren Fenghe down, took out a lunch bag from somewhere, shook it in front of Ren Fenghe and asked, "Do you want to wear it?"
Ren Fenghe quickly shook her head, fearing that if she was a second late, the goose yellow lunch bag with a little yellow chicken printed on it would be put around her neck.
Jiang Shen put the rice bag aside, took out a small bowl from the kitchen, picked up a small piece of noodles and put it on the back of his hand to check the temperature.
After making sure the noodles were at the right temperature, he didn't mind the noodles touching the back of his hand and just picked them up and ate them. Then he turned off the small fan, picked up a small bowl of noodles and the egg in it and placed it in front of Ren Fenghe, and handed him the spoon and auxiliary chopsticks.
"I'll get more for you after you finish eating." Jiang Shen said.
Ren Fenghe took in his actions and frowned in confusion. No matter how he looked at it, his actions showed that he was very good at taking care of children, so how come his daughter was not taken care of at all?
"Don't you like noodles? Then eat the eggs first, and I'll see what else I can make for you." Jiang Shen carefully observed Ren Fenghe's expression and said.
Ren Fenghe whispered, "I don't dislike it."
She was starving, so anything she could eat would do.
After saying that, she picked up the auxiliary chopsticks and tried to pick up the noodles.
Children's fingers are not flexible enough. Even though Ren Fenghe has many years of experience in using chopsticks, once he changed hands, he still found it difficult to perform such delicate movements as using chopsticks.
When the slippery noodles cunningly slipped out from under the chopsticks, fell onto his clothes, and were then picked up by Jiang Shen and placed on a tissue, Ren Fenghe gave up and put the chopsticks aside, instead using a spoon to scoop the noodles into his mouth.
I don’t know if he was really hungry or if Jiang Shen had some trick up his sleeve for making noodles, but this bowl of noodles was really delicious. Ren Fenghe took one bite after another and quickly finished the small bowl.
Jiang Shen filled another small bowl for her.
After making sure that Ren Fenghe could eat on his own, Jiang Shen got up from his chair and prepared his breakfast.
Ren Fenghe pricked up his ears and paid attention to Jiang Shen's movements.
The sound of ice cubes hitting the glass, the sound of packaging being torn, the sound of water being poured.
Soon, Jiang Shen sat back next to Ren Fenghe with an iced American coffee in one hand and a bowl in the other.
Ren Fenghe glanced at his bowl, which contained two boiled eggs.
My stomach is not in good condition to begin with, and I drink ice milk so early in the morning, and it’s winter now.
Realizing that she was worried about the traitor Jiang Shen, she quickly added a few words in her mind: It would be best if he upsets his stomach, because it is his fault for letting his fans down.
Breakfast time passed peacefully.
After breakfast, Ren Fenghe remembered something and looked up at Jiang Shen.
Jiang Shen waited patiently for her to speak.
Ren Fenghe hesitated and whispered tentatively: "Mom..."
