Chapter 96: Getting the plot back on track
As soon as the scene ended, someone shouted, "Fang Xin, your friend is here."
Lu Ziyan stood in the distance and waved to him. In the past he would have happily gone to greet him, but now his mentality was different.
Since rejecting Li Ang, Lu Ziyan came more frequently.
He had no idea what Lu Ziyan meant, and he didn't mention that he liked him again, just like before he poked the hole in the window.
"What are you thinking about so absent-mindedly?" Seeing that he was taking a long time to come over, Lu Ziyan went up to him and talked to him.
"Ah, nothing. Are you so free lately?" Fang Xin was curious about how he found so much time to come and see him.
"I'm busy, but I want to see you." Lu Ziyan looked at him and smiled, "I asked Director Wan, you don't have any scenes today, can we have dinner together?"
Before he could refuse, Lu Ziyan grabbed him and said, "Okay, don't refuse me. You've refused me several times. If you do this again, I'll get angry."
I followed Lu Ziyan to the restaurant reluctantly. This restaurant was the Japanese restaurant that Li Ang said was pretty good last time.
He sat on the futon without saying a word. Lu Ziyan arranged everything in an orderly manner. The dishes were served one after another, and they were delicious.
"Come on, order a portion of all the sashimi you like. Eat more of whichever you like."
Lu Ziyan placed the sashimi plate in front of him and looked at Fang Xin expectantly.
He talked to himself about what had happened recently and complained about the work that Gu Qing had assigned to him. As a result, the atmosphere became much better.
Fang Xin smiled and told him about his work. Now, apart from shooting commercials and taking acting jobs, he rarely appears in variety shows.
"That's great. I haven't dared to think about being able to be active in front of everyone through my works." Lu Ziyan pouted, "Although my acting skills have improved a lot, I still feel that there is a gap compared to you."
"I'm also a bad actor, okay?" Fang Xin wrinkled her nose. "There's no question of who is stronger or weaker between us. If you want to say that, then I've made several bad movies before, but they're not much worse than yours!"
Lu Ziyan was silent for a long time. He looked at Fang Xin's resentful expression with a silly look, and curled his lips slightly, "You are the best."
Fang Xin was proud for a few seconds, then said modestly, "No, no, Mr. Lu is still the best."
"You are the most amazing person I have ever met. You are hardworking and kind. There is no one else like you in the entire entertainment industry." Lu Ziyan stared at Fang Xin in a daze, with unknown emotions surging in his eyes, as hot as magma. If he continued to look at her, he would probably lose control.
Being burned by Lu Ziyan's eyes, Fang Xin thought to himself that something was wrong and the topic had gone off track.
"I'm full. Let's go back." Fang Xin was about to get up, but the other party's words made him freeze in place.
"Fang Xin, stop running away. You can't run away from me every time." Lu Ziyan was determined not to let him leave. He grabbed Fang Xin's hand and pulled him down.
Fang Xin sat on the mat and felt his legs go numb. He seemed to be stunned, but he was very awake.
What Lu Ziyan said was right. He seemed to be avoiding it every time. Whenever he encountered such emotional problems, he would always avoid it.
Li Ang was, Lu Ziyan was, he didn't know how to respond to their passionate love.
The first time is new, the second time is familiar. Fang Xin remembered what his grandmother said, he took a deep breath and exhaled.
Lu Ziyan could sense his nervousness, but he didn't want to push him too hard. Last time, Fang Xin didn't express his thoughts and just went back with a smile.
Today he finally caught someone alone, and he would not let go of this opportunity.
"What I said in the mountain village is true. I like you, very much, no later than Leon." His eyes were blazing, as if they were going to burn people. "I have liked you for a long time, before you met Leon."
These words were undoubtedly like a bomb, causing Fang Xin's pupils to tremble. He looked at Lu Ziyan in disbelief.
The other person looked extremely serious, losing his usual look, and there was only his figure in his pupils.
"Remember when we were filming Winter? I said I was speaking the lines, but that was fake. I didn't realize I liked you at that time. I didn't understand what love was."
"I thought I liked girls, but later I found out that I don't like girls. I only like you, and it won't work if it's not you!"
Fang Xin leaned back, with nothing to support him. His back and heart were hanging in the air.
"Also, before at your house, I thought Xu Shi'an was interested in you, and you also had a crush on him before. I thought you two would have a future and wanted to bring you together..." He breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, fortunately you don't like him."
Up to now, Lu Ziyan had been talking non-stop while Fang Xin hadn't said a word. He was so shocked that he didn't know what to say.
After a long while, Fang Xin regained the feeling in her legs. "Zi Yan, we will always be good friends, no matter what time it is."
Lu Ziyan suddenly asked: "Why?!"
He approached Fang Xin excitedly, "Why are you willing to give Leon a chance to pursue you? Why don't you give me a chance?!"
Fang Xin pushed him away, "You're too close!"
Lu Ziyan was pushed back. He knew he had lost his composure. "Sorry, I..."
"Leon can, but you can't, because I don't like you, and you shouldn't like me." Fang Xin grabbed her coat, "I should be the one to say sorry, but you will always be my friend, and that won't change."
The private room became eerily quiet after Fang Xin left. Lu Ziyan sat there in a daze.
The scent of Fang Xin still lingers in the space. His departing figure and heartless eyes are still vivid in my mind.
It was harder than any other play he had ever done. Lu Ziyan covered his heart with his hands.
It hurts so much.
Fang Xin hurried home and found that there were more people at home today.
An Mei thoughtfully prepared a midnight snack for him when he came back. She had already told An Mei the password to the house, but she was a little surprised to see him today.
"Aunt, why are you here?"
As soon as I took off my coat, An Mei rushed over and said, "I thought something happened to you, so I came to check on you. I'm glad you're okay."
"Why should I..." The next second I remembered what day it was.
The calendar on the wall clearly stated that today was the day to return to Xu's residence, but because Lu Ziyan suddenly appeared, An Mei did not have time to tell him, and she was taken away in a daze.
Seeing that the man looked unhappy, An Mei pulled him to sit down.
"What happened? Normally you would tell me when you didn't come back, but today you didn't answer the phone. I was so worried." An Mei's hands were a little cold, and she looked really worried.
Fang Xin hugged An Mei and patted her shoulder gently to comfort her. "I'm fine. I just went out for dinner temporarily."
I took out my cell phone and saw that it was out of battery.
"I missed the call because my phone was out of battery. I'm fine. I'm sorry to have made you worry..." Fang Xin was not in a good mood today and looked a little pale.
An Mei noticed that something was wrong with him, but she didn't ask any more questions and decided to let him eat and then go to rest.
Fang Xin was reluctant to move. He sat there in deep thought. An Mei had no choice but to carry the things to the table.
"If you really can't figure it out, I can help you think of a solution."
These words brought Fang Xin back to his senses and he felt comforted. He tried to tell An Mei about what happened today.
After hearing what happened, An Mei remained expressionless and smiled happily.
Fang Xin was stunned, remembering An Mei praising them as a couple, and wanted to laugh it off, but was stopped by An Mei.
"I'm very happy that Xinxin is liked by others. This is something to be thankful for." An Mei said earnestly, "Liang and Ziyan are both excellent and good people. It is a happy thing to be liked by others. You did the right thing."
"They like you and you're grateful, but you can't stay with them just because you're grateful. That would be irresponsible to them."
"They are not children, so don't blame yourself."
Whenever Fang Xin was confused, there would always be someone by his side to tell him that he did nothing wrong and that he did a good job, or to encourage him to complete or solve a problem.
Fang Xin's eyes suddenly turned red and she cried silently in An Mei's arms.
He wanted to go back and didn't want to stay here, but he couldn't bear to leave Anmei, the person who was so kind to him.
Having never dealt with such things since he was a child, he was really at a loss.
But now the chance of going back is very small. Lu Ziyan's line has gone astray to an alien planet. How can he still follow the original plot?
Xu Shi'an is not a problem, the problem lies with Lu Ziyan. Even the protagonists can't fall in love.
I had a good rest that night with Anmei's comfort, and the next day I finally went to work without dark circles under my eyes and feeling listless.
Director Wan was very disappointed with the result, so he just snorted twice and told him to get ready.
Things that could not be solved the day before will naturally come up with ideas the next day. Fang Xin was thinking about how to use Xu Shi'an to correct Lu Ziyan.
After all, they are the protagonists, so there will definitely be sparks between the two of them. Lu Ziyan has now accidentally discovered that he likes boys. If Xu Shian goes to comfort Lu Ziyan when he is sad, will there be a possibility...
Just as I was thinking about it, the real owner appeared.
Xu Shi'an came and found Fang Xin in a daze not far away.
He rubbed his fingertips repeatedly. He didn't want to come today, but came because Gu Qing said that Director Wan was loosening up.
Well, that's it.
He didn't come here because Ms. An told him about Fang Xin's confession. Absolutely not.
Xu Shi'an took a step forward to look for Director Wan, but he stopped unconsciously when someone called him.
"elder brother!"
Now that I've been seen, there's nothing to hide.
Fang Xin looked up at Xu Shi'an who was standing in front of him. He was in a daze just now and didn't notice him. He only saw him after Xu Shi'an walked in front of him. The black coat was too conspicuous to be ignored.
"Why are you here? Are you here to see Director Wan?"
Xu Shi'an hummed and didn't intend to say more.
Fang Xin rolled her eyes and asked, "Would you like to have a drink together tonight?"
"Huh?" Xu Shi'an seemed to have heard something incredible, and his cold expression relaxed a lot.
"Yes, I have something to say." Fang Xin took out her phone and sent him an address. "I'll go there when I finish my part. You can also go there directly after work."
Later, Xu Shi'an didn't hear clearly what Fang Xin said, he only knew that he agreed.
Seeing this, Fang Xin happily went to find Director Wan to film the scene. Before leaving, she took out her cell phone and sent a message to Lu Ziyan.
Xingxing: Come here when you are free in the evening. I have something to tell you.
The other party immediately replied after receiving the message. Fang Xin put away the phone and encouraged herself, "It's okay, I just want to get the plot back on track."
Feeling a little guilty, Fang Xin put away his phone and prepared to start filming.
The filming ended early today, and Fang Xin did not tell Xu Shian and went back to the apartment first.
