Another audition
Another audition.
The temperature has dropped recently, and the nights are much colder than the days. Bai Shunan sat on a bench and lit a cigarette skillfully. The scarlet flame faintly reflected in his indifferent eyes and quickly disappeared. He sat there quietly alone, feeling even more lonely than the starless and moonless night.
He smoked slowly, his shoulders slightly bent, appearing relaxed. Bai Shunan looked up at the smoke floating in the air and couldn't help but reach out to touch it. His movements were gentle, and he raised his head with a soft expression. His whole body suddenly exuded a kind of curious childishness, as if he was finally willing to reveal some of his suppressed anger. At this moment, Lu Jinfeng entered.
Bai Shunan saw Lu Jinfeng through the drifting smoke, and there seemed to be a gentle and bright light passing through his eyes. He smiled slightly, his movements a little paused, but this did not interrupt Qi Ci's thoughts.
Yun Cen, who was slightly drunk, quickened his pace when he saw Qi Ci. He sat next to Qi Ci and buried his head in Qi Ci's shoulder. Qi Ci's expression softened inevitably, and he smoothly changed the hand holding the cigarette. He placed his free hand on Yun Cen's head and patted it gently.
Yun Cen raised his head with a drunken face, and Lu Jinfeng happened to meet Bai Shunan's gaze. Bai Shunan could not avoid the subconscious surprise, and the tenderness that was difficult to conceal broke into Lu Jinfeng's eyes. All the details of the eyes were in sight. Only then did Lu Jinfeng realize how intoxicating Bai Shunan's eyes were. The love that vaguely emerged in his eyes seemed to become concrete under the background of his mood, as if he was constantly conveying his true feelings.
Lu Jinfeng was drawn into the role by those eyes, but easily drifted out of it, as if he had discovered a meticulously crafted treasure, but could only look at it for a few seconds. Ying You had to look at it carefully before he felt satisfied. The more this happened, the more bored he felt and couldn't really get into the role. As his thoughts wandered, Lu Jinfeng remembered the eyes he saw on the screen yesterday, similar yet different. At that time, Bai Shunan's eyes seemed to be more affectionate. As he thought about it, he leaned forward and kissed Qi Ci's face intimately.
Bai Shunan couldn't help but shrink back. He was rejecting him. Lu Jinfeng noticed this, his eyes darkened, and his heart became unhappy. He even wanted to go forward and kiss him again with some evil taste. Lu Jinfeng's heart skipped a beat when he realized what he was thinking. He felt unwell and his subsequent state became weak.
Qi Ci's lips curled slightly, and he lowered his head and chuckled. He raised his hand and pushed Yun Cen away. Yun Cen took the opportunity to rest his head on Qi Ci's legs. With sleepy eyes, he took the cigarette from Qi Ci's hand, glanced at it, and took a puff. "Didn't I go to a class reunion today? Guess who was sitting next to me?"
"I can't guess," Qi Ci said unkindly, taking back the cigarette, "I don't know your classmates."
"Guess, seriously, guess," Yun Cen became even more persistent and clingy after drinking, "Maybe you'll guess it."
Hearing this, Qi Ci made a reasonable inference and asked, "You mentioned this to me?"
Yun Cen lowered his eyes and pinched Qi Ci's clothes, rubbing them twice with his fingertips and making a sticky "hmm" sound.
"Boy or girl?"
Yun Cen raised his eyes to look at Qi Ci, "Girl."
"That lesbian?" Qi Ci frowned and raised his hand to take a puff of cigarette.
"That's right, Ah Ci, you guessed it right. It was He Yu. I sat on her left, and her girlfriend sat opposite her. We weren't that familiar with each other before, but after two glasses of wine, we started talking a lot. I thought I was the only one being pressured to get married so badly..." Yun Cen glanced at Qi Ci's face as he spoke. Seeing that Qi Ci's face didn't look too bad, he continued, "It turns out that He Yu's mother is even more aggressive. She sends about 30 to 40 messages every day. Apart from one or two greetings, the rest are all urging me to get married. There are also forwarded videos of various wedding news. It's terrifying to me..."
At this time, they had no idea what would happen next.
Qi Ci was listening and his hand unconsciously touched Yun Cen's hair. Lu Jinfeng felt itchy and thought there was a flying insect, so he raised his hand to shake it twice. This time, he touched Bai Shunan's hand, which had a cool and delicate touch. After this touch, both of them retracted their hands.
Bai Shunan thought of what he was going to act out later and subconsciously pursed his lips. He placed his hand lightly on Lu Jinfeng's lips, like a feather falling. He lowered his head, bent down, and stopped less than a centimeter away from Lu Jinfeng's lips. His falling hair swept across Lu Jinfeng's face.
Because of the shielding of his hands, Lu Jinfeng looked calmly at Bai Shunan who had his eyes closed in front of him. The drunkenness from his performance disappeared completely, and there was even some disgust in his eyes. He couldn't help but think of the scene he saw yesterday. Sure enough, he still felt disgusted. The distance between them was such that anyone could kiss with a slight move. Lu Jinfeng had already left the role, but he didn't want to pause for the sake of his face.
Lu Jinfeng's warm breath continued to spread on Bai Shunan's face. Soon, Bai Shunan opened his eyes and let go of Lu Jinfeng. The two of them quickly separated, and soon there was a large space between them.
"It's over," Li Xuanyue propped her forehead with her hand, a bitter expression on her face. Her hat, which she had taken off long ago, drooped to the side, her discontented gaze undisguised. She commented sarcastically, "You must know how fake your acting is, right? After all, it's such a short clip, and only the first bit is acceptable. I don't know how you managed to keep messing up every few seconds in the rest of it."
"No need to think about it, you definitely haven't gotten along in private. I thought you two knew each other," Li Xuanyue stood up and sighed softly. It was the first time she felt embarrassed about her casting. "Xiao Shun, tell me, are you afraid of Lu Jinfeng? Why do you completely collapse every time Lu Jinfeng makes a move? It makes me want to step forward and give you some pointers... Also, Lu Jinfeng, what are you laughing at? You think you're such a good actor, but after not acting for a few months, your acting skills have regressed as if you haven't acted in eight lifetimes. The word 'resistance' is almost written on your face. Seeing you acting like this makes me almost homophobic."
Lu Jinfeng was about to get angry when Bai Shunan, who was standing beside him, had a complicated expression on his face. He spoke calmly before him, "I am a little scared."
He realized that he couldn't really commit himself when facing Lu Jinfeng.
When Li Xuanyue heard Bai Shunan's words, she was even more furious. She stepped forward, grabbed Bai Shunan's collar and moved towards Lu Jinfeng. The sudden pull caught Bai Shunan off guard. He didn't react at all, his heart was beating wildly, and at this time he saw Lu Jinfeng who was very close to him.
Lu Jinfeng looked indifferent as he stared blankly at Bai Shunan, who had come close to him. His brows were half-creased, hinting at a subtle anger. Li Xuanyue's voice rang out, "What are you afraid of? Take a good look at him. What's there to be afraid of?"
Li Xuanyue thought Bai Shunan might admire Lu Jinfeng. "I don't care how thick your filter is for him. Take it all away and treat him like a psychopath."
Lu Jinfeng looked at Bai Shunan in front of him, head lowered quietly. He couldn't see his expression clearly, but he felt that he was resisting. Inexplicable hatred dissipated the sudden anger. He raised his hand and paused for a second before pushing Bai Shunan away. He turned to look at the aggressive Li Xuanyue, frowned and cursed: "Li Xuanyue, are you sick?"
"You still have the nerve to scold me," Li Xuanyue gritted her teeth. "I'm lucky I didn't go crazy after you acted like this. Not to mention how forced your expression was, your eyes were as dull as a zombie, as if you were afraid others would misunderstand that you like him. But the lines were okay."
After hearing what Li Xuanyue said, Lu Jinfeng, who was already not in good shape, lost some momentum. He was still very unconvinced, "How bad can it be?"
"Quick, quick, someone bring the video they just filmed over to Young Master Lu for his approval," Li Xuanyue rolled her eyes and said disdainfully, "Let him see how good his acting is."
Li Xuanyue took several deep breaths. Bai Shunan was fine, but Lu Jinfeng also acted like this. If this continued, how could the play be filmed? Fortunately, Ah Hua was not here. She watched Lu Jinfeng slide the progress bar and snorted coldly, "Now you know how bad your acting is."
"It's okay." Lu Jinfeng said calmly. He watched the video replay and found that Li Xuanyue still showed some mercy in her scolding.
When Bai Shunan heard what Lu Jinfeng was saying, his eyes showed no emotion and his hands slowly clenched. Lu Jinfeng caught a glimpse of Bai Shunan's actions. He continued watching the video calmly. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Bai Shunan was cursing him in his heart.
"I think we still have to kiss for real," Li Xuanyue continued, "The borrowed position doesn't feel good."
"We agreed not to kiss." Lu Jinfeng raised his head and complained strongly. He was already upset enough about being deceived.
"Got it, you damn homophobic man."
