Chapter 101: A Good Brother for a Hundred and One Life
Someone invited him to dinner, Le Mingxiao was naturally very happy, not to mention eating with his good brothers, and the happiest thing in the world was nothing more than this.
They chose a weekend afternoon, still in the small Sichuan neighborhood where they frequented the company. In addition to Li Xin, who was in the United States to record a new song, Le Mingxiao, Bian Xiangdong, Qi Yao and Jiang Yue, all four of them arrived on time.
The ordered dishes came up one after another, and Jiang Yue specially asked the waiter to open a bottle of liquor, shouting: "Come on, come on, in order to celebrate our brothers getting better and better, we must not get drunk tonight!"
Among the five of them, Qi Yao mainly took the film and television route, and Bian Xiangdong has also made guest appearances in several movies one after another since his debut, the role in "Battle City" is his heaviest one, and Le Mingxiao has only acted in such a movie, as for the remaining two, Li Xin focuses on music, and Jiang Yue is more keen on variety shows. So no matter what, the fact that Qi Yao and the three of them can be nominated for a film award is a happy event for their small group.
Jiang Yue took their cups one by one, and then filled them full, but when he reached the east side, he removed the cups and said, "I can't drink, I drove here today." โ
"Oh, you're okay kid!" Jiang Yue stretched out his hand and patted Bian Xiangdong on the shoulder, "When did you buy the car, why didn't you even say a word to my partner, so that my brother could drive a fresh!"
As soon as Jiang Yue said this, he saw that Bian Xiangdong's expression was a little stiff, and he hesitated and said, "I, I'm driving Brother Yuan's car." โ
Hearing him mention the word "Brother Yuan", the other three were also stunned, Qi Yao said: "Dongzi, you still have to pay attention to it, in case you are targeted by the media, there is always trouble." โ
"I'm a little transparent, who will stare at me......" Xiangdong said these words almost without thinking, and as soon as the words came out, he seemed to realize that it seemed inappropriate, he closed his mouth, and his expression looked a little confused.
"Dongzi ......" Le Mingxiao tried to open his mouth to break the current somewhat delicate atmosphere, but as soon as he spoke, he took the glass of wine in front of him to โกโก Ran, raised his head and poured it into his mouth.
"Dongzi, you-" Le Mingxiao was taken aback, wanting to stop Bian Xiangdong's almost self-harming behavior, Qi Yao on the other side had already shook his head at him, and Le Mingxiao had no choice but to stop.
Later, Le Mingxiao couldn't help but wonder if it was because they had changed, or because the environment they were in made them have to have many scruples, why they could never return to the simplicity and unscrupulousness of the past.
In short, the meal was not pleasant, Bian Xiangdong was not surprised to get drunk, Jiang Yue and Qi Yao did not drink less, and Le Mingxiao After Bian Xiangdong snatched his cup, the whole meal was not drunk, I have to say that he is still very predictable.
After watching Jiang Yue and Qi Yao get into the taxi safely, Le Mingxiao went back to Bian Xiangdong's car, Bian Xiangdong was already lying in the back seat and fell asleep, Le Mingxiao sent him a seat belt, so as not to accidentally roll down again, and he sat in the driver's seat, fortunately, although he rarely drove out, he would still carry his driver's license with him.
At night, the capital is still brightly lit and full of traffic. Afraid that it would be too bumpy and make it uncomfortable to sleep in the back seat to the east, Le Mingxiao drove the car very slowly, and when he reached an intersection, he suddenly encountered a red light, and it seemed that the front was blocked.
Le Mingxiao stopped the car, and while waiting for the red light to pass, the side of the back seat woke up to the east. Le Mingxiao didn't say much, just unscrewed a bottle of water and handed it over.
After Bian Xiangdong poured a few mouthfuls of water, he was obviously much more conscious, and he said, "Lele, I'm sorry for asking you to come out to eat, but I still caused everyone not to eat happily." โ
"What else do you say sorry to your good brother?" Le Mingxiao has always disliked asking for troubles, and said indifferently at all, "I didn't eat well this time, just make up for it next time." โ
Bian Xiangdong just nodded, then leaned back on his seat to rest, Le Mingxiao looked at him from the reflector, and said, "Dongzi, now there are only you and me here, can you tell me what's wrong?"
"I'm ......" Bian Xiangdong choked as soon as he opened his mouth, Le Mingxiao didn't urge him, just waited quietly, and Xiangdong responded again after a while, probably Le Mingxiao could still reassure him, and he didn't have to disguise himself anymore.
"Lele, although I was nominated for the Newcomer Award this time, I know that it is all the credit of Brother Yuan, I am not acting material at all, and I don't want to act. "I just want to write and sing well and play my favorite rock, but life is not what I want now, and I don't even remember what it was like to sing on a formal stage last time." โ
He seemed to hold back these words for a long time, and after he finished speaking, his whole person seemed to be a little deflated, but Le Mingxiao did not react immediately. At this time, the red light had passed, and the traffic in front began to loosen, Le Mingxiao stepped on the accelerator, but he did not go straight forward, but drove the car to the side of the road and stopped again.
He said: "Dongzi, you also know how bad the environment of the Chinese music scene is now, we are singers, but first of all, we are artists, if no one knows you, even if you make good music, who will you listen to? โ
"Of course I know that he is for my good, but Brother Yuan, he ......" Bian Xiangdong began to vomit again, Le Mingxiao turned around, looked at him and stopped, and said, "Brother Yuan has been in this circle for so many years, he has more experience than us, no matter what, he will not harm you, the most important thing is that Dongzi, you have to understand what you want, in order to get what you want, even if it is worth walking a little more." He paused for a moment and added, "Since we have stepped into this circle, we should understand that everyone will have their own involuntarily, and at this time we need to recognize the path we want to take." โ
Bian Xiangdong was stunned, he didn't speak for a long time, his thick eyebrows wrinkled into an inverted figure, and suddenly he let out a long sigh and said, "Lele, I hope you can know that if there is anything bad for you one day, it must not be my will." โ
Hearing this, Le Mingxiao chuckled in his heart, he turned his head, looked out of the car window at the street at night, and after being silent for more than ten seconds, he spoke: "Dongzi, do you remember when we participated in the competition?"
"Yes. โ
"The one I eliminated, you said that you didn't want to compare, and said that you wanted to retire with me, if it wasn't for the persuasion of Brother Yuan at that time, I believe you would definitely go with me. Le Mingxiao said slowly, his voice did not fluctuate too much, "Since then, I have become even more convinced that you Bian Xiangdong is my good brother who will never change in my life." โ
โโฆโฆโ
There was silence in the car again, and both of them seemed to be thinking about something, and at this moment, there were suddenly a few "bang" knocks on the window, and both of them were frightened back to their senses at the same time. Le Mingxiao hurriedly rolled down the glass of the car window and found a uniformed traffic police uncle standing outside, and saluted Le Mingxiao with a "snap".
"Comrade, parking is not allowed here......"
So thank you to the traffic police uncle, for the somewhat suffocating atmosphere between them to draw a satisfactory name, the price is that they were issued a fine, but fortunately the traffic police uncle does not chase stars and is very professional, otherwise the headlines of tomorrow's entertainment version will be indispensable to the two of them, to let Lin Chen know that he and Bian Xiangdong are mixed together, and he has come out like this, he has to tear him alive.
That night, Le Mingxiao still insisted on sending Bian Xiangdong back to where he lived, and then he took a taxi home. When he got home, Yan Duo had already fallen asleep, and Le Mingxiao went to take a bath as soon as possible, although he didn't drink, but his clothes were still stained with a lot of alcohol and the unique smell of oil smoke in the hotel, and even he couldn't smell it.
After taking a shower, I returned to the bedroom, and found that Yan Duo had woken up at some point, and was sitting at the head of the bed, and the wall lamp on the wall was also on, Le Mingxiao said, "Brother, did I disturb you?"
Yan Duo didn't answer his question, but said, "It seems that you are not too high, and you are not happy to eat with your friends?"
Le Mingxiao sighed, Yan Duo reached out and patted the position next to him, Le Mingxiao climbed onto the bed, and then sat down against him.
"Tell me, is it unpleasant with your friends?"
"No, there isn't. Le Mingxiao pillowed on Yan Duo's shoulder, and said hesitantly, "I just think why many things are different from before, there was nothing before, but with friends, even if it is a bowl of spicy tang for more than ten yuan together, it is happy, now that I have more things, there seems to be an extra layer of estrangement between friends, and I can no longer go back to the past kind of carelessness and indistinguishability from each other." โ
"People always change. Yan Duo touched Le Mingxiao's still somewhat damp hair, and said gently, "Some people can share sorrows, but they may not be able to share joys and sorrows. โ
"I just can't figure it out!" Le Mingxiao raised his face and looked at Yan Duo, looking like he was about to cry, "When has it become a difficult thing to treat friends sincerely, whether it's good or bad, I can accept it, I just don't want it to be like this, it's boring!"
Seeing his unhappy appearance, Yan Duo could only hug him and said patiently: "Life is like this, it's not that you can do whatever you want, one day you will slowly figure it out after experiencing more." โ
Le Mingxiao glanced up at Yan Duo again and said, "Then I'd rather not understand at all." โ
