Chapter 68: You Can't Run
"The restaurant opposite the south gate of Jinling Academy of Arts" Shiji was opened by my mother, before I decided to embark on the road of dubbing, my mother asked me to help the family deliver takeaways, He Xinran was right, if it weren't for the experience of delivering food in the rain, I wouldn't have met Mr. Xiao, let alone found the career I wanted to fight for all my life, it was Mr. Xiao who discovered my potential and brought me on the road of dubbing, Mr. Xiao is my Bole!" Shi Nan's eyes were full of seriousness and gratitude when he said this.
After Shi Nan finished speaking, there was no sound at the dinner table for a long time, and it was Xiao Tu's grandfather who opened his mouth first: "Xiao Tu's father was a university professor before his death, and he was full of peach and plums, he once said that if he could help his students find a career that they love all their lives, then he would have no regrets, what Xiao Tu's father didn't do, Xiao Tu did......"
Shi Nan found that Xiao Tu's mother's gaze at him gradually softened: "Miss Shi turned out to be a voice actor, and I also have colleagues around me who have done dubbing part-time, this profession is not as glamorous as the actor in front of the stage, most of the time is obscure, do you really plan to make a career out of this for the rest of your life?"
Shi Nan nodded and replied: "Although the scope of the dubbing circle we know today is still relatively narrow, the future prospects are still very broad, and Mr. Xiao is also making efforts to let more people understand the dubbing circle." I think that since I like dubbing, I still hope that I can specialize in it and contribute to the future development of the dubbing industry. β
Xiao Tu's mother nodded approvingly: "It's good to have a specialization in the art industry, but you also have to endure loneliness......
Shi Nan smiled: "Since I have chosen this path, I will go on without hesitation, which is what my mother told me." β
"Your mother was able to agree to let you give up the restaurant in your home and let you choose your favorite profession freely, and she seems to be a very special person, and maybe we can meet if we have the chance. Xiao Tu's mother nodded.
Hearing Xiao Tu's mother's words, everyone at the dinner table showed different wonderful expressions, Xiao Tu's grandparents looked at each other and smiled, He Shasha and He Xinran's faces were ugly, as if they had overturned the color palette, red and white.
"Actually, my mother was able to agree to my dubbing, thanks to Mr. Xiao, who only agreed after Mr. Xiao talked to my mother. Heather said embarrassedly.
"Oh, Xiao Tu still has such a ability?" Xiao Tu's mother seemed to be very surprised, and her tone was light but lonely, "Xiao Tu rarely goes home and rarely communicates with us. β
Shi Nan was stunned and didn't know how to answer, and shook Xiao Tu's arm under the table.
"Brother Xiao Tu couldn't come back because he was too busy. He Xinran suddenly spoke.
Xiao Tu's mother nodded: "Yes, Xinran is right, it's right that the boy is busy with his career." β
"In the future, I will come back with Nan Nan as often as possible. Xiao Tu suddenly opened his mouth.
Xiao Tu's mother seemed to be surprised, and then her eyes were slightly red, and she cleared her throat and suppressed her emotions: "Let's eat, it's getting cold." β
Heather felt that unconsciously, the atmosphere became much more harmonious.
After dinner, He Shasha and Xiao Tu's mother chatted a few words, and then proposed to leave with He Xinran first, Xiao Tu's mother did not leave anyone, let Xiao Tu send it off, He Xinran went to the bathroom, so Xiao Tu and He Shasha waited in the courtyard at the door.
The moonlight was slightly cool, He Shasha smiled and said to Xiao Tu: "You really don't plan to return to the stage?" I have invested in a theater now, if you don't want to be a university teacher, just tell me, I firmly believe that if you go to be a theater director, you will definitely have a better future than now." β
"Are you making an offer to me?" Xiao Tu said lightly.
"Xiaotu, we grew up together, I naturally hope you are well, do you really think that you will be better with Shi Nan than with Xinran? Xinran will definitely become an excellent actor in the future, you and her are the right person, and the two of you have a common topic. He Shasha said.
"Is this what you really think?" Xiao Tu looked at He Shasha coldly, "Are you really doing all this because of why Xinran?"
"Xiaotu, what do you mean by this, why can't I understand?" He Shasha asked with a smile.
"Actually, you just forcibly put your unfulfilled wishes on your sister, including being sought after by everyone, including becoming a traffic star, and getting me, right?"
He Shasha's originally elegant and smiling perfect expression suddenly began to be uncontrollable, and her face turned pale: "You!"
"Do you think you're well hidden? Don't forget, we're all actors, and our body movements deceive people, but our eyes and micro-expressions can't deceive people. Xiao Tu's gaze was far away.
He Shasha no longer concealed it, stared at Xiao Tu in a complicated manner and said: "Since you know everything, then you should also know how much I have paid for you and how hard it is!!" But you have always pretended not to know, and pushed me out of your life circle fiercely! Xiao Tu, why are you so ruthless??"
"He Shasha, I hope you make one thing clear, your liking me is just your wishful thinking, if it weren't for your repeated instigation of He Xinran to hurt Nan Nan, I wouldn't have told you this at all today, your liking is insignificant to me, I'm telling you this just to warn you, if you do anything to Nan Nan to hurt her, I will definitely not give up!" Xiao Tu's words were cold and sharp.
He Shasha sneered: "I instigated Xinran, how do you know that I instigated Xinran? What evidence do you have to prove that I taught Xinran to do all this?"
"Because Xinran's nature is not bad, she could have been a good actor, if it weren't for you instilling in her over and over again the wrong three views, she wouldn't be like this, if you really value her, please re-examine what you have done!"
"Brother Xiao Tu, sister, did you quarrel?" He Xinran walked out in confusion and asked, "I heard your voice just inside it." β
"Gladly, we went home. He Shasha quickly recovered her expression just now and beckoned to He Xinran.
"Don't wear the mask for too long, or it will disorient you. Xiao Tu said.
"Sister, what does Brother Xiao Tu mean by this?" He Xinran noticed that He Shasha's face became very ugly.
I saw He Shasha stop and turn around, and sneered: "Xiaotu, you said that I have been wearing a mask for a long time, but aren't you the same? Otherwise, how could you not be on the stage so far? Lin Hanchen is your biggest mask!"
Looking at He Shasha's back, Xiao Tu's hand gradually clenched, and then let go again, at this time he had a strong obsession - he wanted to see Shi Nan immediately!
When he entered the house and saw his beloved girl talking and laughing with his grandparents on the balcony, he breathed a sigh of relief, warmth rose in his heart, and the corners of his eyes were bent.
As long as there is heather around, everything can be sunny after rain......
"What are you talking about, so happy?" Xiao Tu asked briskly as he walked to the balcony.
"Grandpa and grandma are telling me about your childhood, it turns out that Mr. Xiao was so naughty when he was a child, not only climbed the tree but also made the girl in the neighbor's house next door cry, hahaha!"
"That's right, Xiao Tu did bad things when he was a child and was serious, it seems that all the reason is taken up by him, and others have no way to take him at all!" Grandpa Xiao Tu also said with a smile.
"Grandpa, don't tell Nan Nan about me when I was a child, I grabbed the handle for Nan Nan, and I won't have anything to do with her in the future!" Xiao Tu sat on the armrest of the heather chair, grabbed the shoulders of his beloved girl and smiled.
"Grandpa, grandma, listen to it, Teacher Xiao will know how to bully me!" Shi Nan pretended to pout angrily.
Xiao Tu couldn't help but reach out and mess up Shi Nan's hair.
Grandpa Xiao and Grandma Xiao also laughed happily.
β¦β¦
When Xiao Tu proposed that Shi Nan should be sent back, Xiao Tu's mother also came out of the study.
"Are you going back?" asked the delicate and beautiful woman.
"Well, I'll send Nan Nan back. Xiao Tu said.
"Thank you aunt and grandparents for your hospitality. "Heather is humble and courteous.
"Xiao Tu, will you come back in a while?" the woman asked Xiao Tu.
Xiao Tu hesitated for a moment: "I, I'll go back to the dormitory in a while, and there will be classes tomorrow morning." β
Xiao Tu's mother nodded: "It's okay." Then he turned and went into the study.
Xiao Tu's mother's last look stinged Shi Nan slightly......
Before leaving, Grandma Xiao Tu took Shi Nan's hand and repeated over and over again: "Nan Nan, you will often come to see us in the future!"
Looking at the old man's dry hands and eager eyes, Shi Nan thought of his grandmother, and felt a lot in his heart, so he nodded again and again: "I will definitely come to grandma often! It's windy outside, you and grandpa should go back quickly!"
At this time, Grandma Xiao Tu suddenly wiped off the gold bracelet on her wrist and stuffed it into Shi Nan's palm: "Nan Nan, this is what Xiao Tu's grandfather's mother left me, it was supposed to be given to Xiao Tu's mother but she didn't ask for it, now I will give it to you, you must be good!"
Shi Nan looked at the gold bracelet in her palm as if it weighed a thousand catties, she put the bracelet on her wrist, Xiao Tu's grandmother's body temperature was still left on the bracelet, the burning Shi Nan's heart was hot, Shi Nan solemnly nodded and promised: "Okay." β
Heather, who was sitting in the co-pilot, rubbed the gold bracelet on her wrist and was silent.
"What's wrong, don't you like this bracelet?" Xiao Tu asked.
"How can you not like it!" Shi Nan immediately retorted, "I just think it's too precious, and the responsibility is too heavy......"
Xiao Tu stopped at the red light, he stretched out his hand and grabbed Shi Nan and said, "Nan Nan, you are now the prospective daughter-in-law of our Xiao family, grandma gave you all the heirlooms, you can't run away." β
Shi Nan pouted: "Who said I was going to run, I won't run, I want to hold on to you tightly for the rest of my life." β
"Wait......" Xiao Tu went to get his phone.
"What?" asked Heather curiously.
Xiao Tu smiled: "I have to record everything you just said!"
Shi Nan was also amused, and reluctantly pushed Xiao Tu away: "...... Please Mr. Xiao drive well, don't be so naΓ―ve, the yellow light will be green soon!"
Xiao Tu grabbed Shi Nan's wrist and raised it to his lips, lightly imprinted a kiss on the wrist wearing the gold bracelet, and then drove the car again with a smile on the corner of his mouth, leaving Shi Nan sweet and shy in the dim light.
