Shang Yechu ran faster and faster, leaving the sandstorm, the film crew, and Sheng Wenzhi behind. Soon, Shang Yechu reached the bungalow she was staying in, grabbed her bag, unzipped it, and impatiently turned it upside down to unzip it!
With a clatter, bits and pieces fell to the ground. Shang Yechu, still breathless, crouched down and rummaged through the debris to find her notebook. Her hand trembled as she wrote a line:
"Xiao Yue's core emotions: an inseparable love and an unbridled hatred."
The writing was done so fast that it looked like scribbles, and no one except Shang Yechu himself could understand it.
Shang Yechu simply plopped down on the ground and started writing furiously.
"Xiao Yue's core character motivation:"
Shang Yechu subconsciously bit the pen, frowned, and wrote down these words:
"Escape from the place where you grew up."
With the core established, the rest grew naturally, like the branches and leaves of a tree. Unlike the previous days when his thoughts were stagnant and he struggled to move forward, Shang Yechu's inspiration flowed freely this time, and the biographical sketches flowed like a gentle stream…
"Judging from the mute woman's life experiences and Xiaoyue's parents' living environment, Xiaoyue lived in a relatively simple but still ignorant world..."
"Xiao Yue is a—"
After hesitating for a few moments and thinking about Sheng Wenzhi's appearance, Shang Yechu wrote:
"The image of a self-centered petty intellectual."
Shang Yechu scratched her chin with her pen. This was a phrase Grandma Hu had mentioned, and Shang Yechu somehow remembered it. It seemed quite fitting here.
"The pampering of an only child and the family's focus on Xiaoyue, with all their resources supporting her, fostered Xiaoyue's habitually self-centered and selfish personality. The gap between city life and family life created resentment in her heart..."
"Such people will never want to change their environment; instead, they will choose to escape resolutely. The more knowledgeable and insightful they are, the more determined they will be to escape."
“The mute woman is not suited to living in the city, and Yongfu and Pinghua never intended to abandon her in the script. In addition, Pinghua is in poor health and the mute woman has a mental illness. Therefore, Yongfu, Pinghua and the mute woman are both relatives and burdens to Xiaoyue.”
After writing these cold words, Shang Yechu stopped again.
Shang Yechu frantically pulled out the script, glanced at a few pages, and continued writing:
"Xiao Yue's aunt, Yong Juan, is Xiao Yue's shadow... Her family gave Xiao Yue endless love, which was a kind of retention, contrary to Xiao Yue's original intention to escape. Therefore, she will intentionally indulge her hatred, expanding her hatred from three parts to ten parts, in order to resist her attachment to her family."
"The core of Xiaoyue's emotions is an inseparable love and a deliberately unrestrained hatred."
Shang Yechu bit the cap of her pen and continued writing:
"Xiao Yue's every action is based on the goal of 'escaping her place of origin.' She won't let anything interfere. Therefore... Xiao Yue's kindness to the mute woman (and even her parents) isn't because the mute woman is so important to her, but because..."
“Only by being kind to the mute woman and her parents will the parents and villagers truly believe in Xiaoyue’s filial piety and that Xiaoyue will repay them when she grows up. Therefore, they will invest more in Xiaoyue without reservation.”
At this point, Shang Yechu stopped writing and frowned.
Isn't that too cold-hearted?
After a moment's hesitation, Shang Yechu added:
"Therefore, when her parents and the mute old woman passed away, Xiao Yue showed the most genuine sadness—because the vested interests and burdens had completely disappeared with their passing, and the suppressed hatred vanished, leaving only—"
After hesitating for a while, Shang Ye finally put pen to paper.
"Love and Regret".
