Chapter 193: Snow Lantern Road
Little by little, the sky was getting darker, and the gravel road was gradually becoming more and more crowded, and they were pointing and wandering along the road, as if waiting for something.
Xu Chunqiu couldn't understand Japanese, so he asked Lu Xiu in a low voice, "What are they waiting for?"
Lu Xiu smiled slightly: "It's started." β
The lights on both sides of the road came on one by one, stretching out where they couldn't see.
"That's ......"
Lu Xiu explained: "This road is called 'Snow Lantern Road'. β
Thousands of snow lanterns illuminate this small, century-old shrine dedicated to the goddess of the sun, as if echoing the beliefs of the shrine and lighting up the entire Jozankei stream.
The snow lantern is actually a snow candle, and a faint candle flame is lit in a prepared thin ice container, which is a lamp made of natural ice.
"You can get some too. β
Lu Xiu didn't smoke, but at this time, he took out a metal lighter from his pocket and handed it to her.
He stood upwind and shielded him from the oncoming wind.
Xu Chunqiu bent into a ring with one hand to block the airflow, and lit a cluster of flames with a "click".
The flickering candle flame shimmered in the thin ice, like a faint star in the night sky, flickering and flickering.
She put the lit snow lamp alongside the other lamps, and the candles tinted the snow and ice with warmth. The lights gathered together are as spectacular as the Milky Way, and it is like a road to a fairy tale, which is a little unreal.
"Is it pretty?"
Xu Chunqiu nodded violently.
"I'll bring you here next time," Lu Xiu's eyes reflected the warm yellow light of the snow lamp, and the light seemed to be stained on his eyelashes, no, not only the eyelashes, the thin golden light seemed to draw a layer of edge on the contours of his face, Xu Chunqiu looked a little stupid.
"It's better to catch the summer, with fireworks and candy apples. β
He continued, "I would also like to take you to see the cherry blossoms of Mt. Fuji in spring, the Sumida River fireworks display in summer, and the autumn leaves of Kiyomizudera Temple in autumn. β
"We come once a year. β
Lu Xiu took her hand.
Spring and autumn are you, cold and warm are you, and all year round is you.
"Then where are we going tomorrow?" Xu Chunqiu said eagerly.
Lu Xiu sighed and took out his phone from his pocket to show her.
It's a text message, and the sender is Tang Ze.
"Mr. Lu, I'm sorry to disturb you during your vacation. β
"You may need to come back a little earlier, the new book is here. β
Lu Xiu locked the screen and said to her, "Go home tomorrow." β
......
At noon the next day, Lu Xiu's private plane landed on the tarmac on the top floor of China Entertainment Media as scheduled.
Tang Ze came up to the top floor to pick them up, and was blown by the propeller and looked messy.
The cabin door opened, and Lu Xiu picked Xu Chunqiu off the plane.
Tang Ze only felt the cold dog food pat on his face.
As soon as he caught up, Lu Xiu pointed behind him with his thumb: "Take the handle, take the luggage." β
There were three big boxes in total, all of which were such and such things he had bought for Xu Chunqiu these days.
Tang Ze picked up his suitcase and checked it, heavy.
"I remember when she went to Japan, she went empty-handed, how could she have so much luggage?"
Lu Xiu pulled the suitcase with one hand and Xu Chunqiu with the other, and smiled at the only single dog present: "I bought it for her." β
Tang Ze: I'm a dog food man.
Lu Xiu has been away for so many days, Huarong has accumulated a lot of work waiting for him to go back to deal with, Tang Ze handed over the luggage to the assistant, and took Xu Chunqiu into the office.
"Sit down. β
Xu Chunqiu smoothed her skirt and sat down on the sofa in Tang Ze's office.
He pinched the bridge of his nose with one hand, and said with some uncertainty: "There is a new book to find." β
"Resources are undoubtedly good resources, but I don't know if it's good or bad for your development. β
The decision-making mistake of "Scorching Beauty" last time left Tang Ze with too deep a psychological shadow, and he was afraid that he would ruin this rare good seedling if he made a mistake.
"Is it a TV series or a movie?" asked Xu Chunqiu tentatively.
"Movies. β
Xu Chunqiu's film and television debut is a big-budget movie, and it is also a woman, Tang Ze will not easily give her a TV series unless he has to, which will only lower her style.
"The director and screenwriter ......"
"An old acquaintance, or Tuzi Su Shen Zhilin. Tang Ze replied, "Even the characters are familiar to you, with the background of the Republic of China, and singing." β
Xu Chunqiu seemed to vaguely understand why Tang Ze said that.
Tang Ze let out a long sigh: "For actors, being facialized is a terrible thing. β
"If you take this play, it is very likely that you will cut off the drama road from now on. β
"Once people see your face on the screen, no, not just on the screen," he said, "even if it's somewhere else, in an advertisement, in a magazine, wherever they see you, they will only associate you with the word 'singing.'" β
Xu Chunqiu: "Isn't that good?"
"That's why I started acting. β
She turned her head and thought about it, and then said, "Mr. Tang called me back in such a hurry because this book has something that attracts you, right?"
"It's because this story is enough to move you that you're so hesitant, right?"
Tang Ze nodded: "The guide told me that the reason why I found you again was because the original author who provided the blueprint for the story insisted on seeing you."
"She had to ask you to act, but she didn't listen to any persuasion, and she recognized the words 'Xu Chunqiu' with one heart. β
He handed Xu Chunqiu a thick pile of printing paper, and on the thickened cover was the name of the play, "Spring and Autumn in the Pear Garden".
"You can read the script when you go home. β
"The male protagonist of the story is called Lu Changqing," Xu Chunqiu's eyes widened little by little with Tang Ze's words, "and the heroine, that is, the character you are going to play, she is called Xu Liunian." β
ββThe fragrance of flowers flows together for a year, and the love is deep in spring and autumn.
- Let's call it Xu Chunqiu.
"As a result, I looked at the script like this," Tang Ze grinned, "This name really has a bit of a relationship with you, is the original author based on you?" β
Xu Chunqiu's breathing suddenly became short, and his palms were sweaty, and the corners of the script were wet a little.
"The ...... The original author, when is she going to see me?"
"I've evened out the time from your schedule, so I guess it's the weekend. β
She shook her head and swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "Tomorrow will not work, I don't want the itinerary or work, I just want to see her as soon as possible." β
"Tomorrow...... It's not impossible to rush the trip," Tang Ze said, "But why don't you wait to see her after reading the script?"
"I don't have to read the script," she looked up, "I seem to already know what kind of story this is." β
