107. Drunkenness

Jing Tao chose a place to drink in a mansion in the capital, on the top floor of a high-end apartment with an open-air garden.

Jing Tao has a hobby known to everyone in the circle - collecting wood carvings, and his home is full of strange wood carvings, some of which he directly uses as furniture.

For example, the abstract eagle-shaped wood carving that stretches along half of the living room, extending diagonally from the back of the sofa to the top, serves as Jing Tao's wine cabinet and bar.

A pile of fine foreign liquor of various names is placed on the wood carvings, and the light shines down from above, and the bottles refract the light into fragments.

Feng Shuo, dressed in iron-blue casual clothes, stood next to the wine cabinet, playing with a wood carving of a monkey's head in his hand.

"The little thing carved by Jin Si Nan wood, others say it is from the Ming Dynasty." Instead of picking a bottle of good wine from the wine cabinet, carrying two bottles of simple two-pot heads that he didn't know where to find them, Jing Tao introduced his collection to Feng Shuo.

"I don't come to this place often, and there aren't many things, so you can take a look at it casually and take whatever you like."

The young man put down the expensive wood carving in his hand and turned to look at the actor who had become famous before he was born.

"Teacher Jing, you are too polite."

For a "highly respected" predecessor like Jing Tao, it is definitely a promotion to Feng Shuo to let a "popular idol" like Feng Shuo who has not yet gained a firm foothold shout as a teacher.

"What's your name?" The man put the wine aside and took off his black shirt, wearing a white cotton vest underneath, which did not cover his toned muscles at all.

"Come to me for a drink, just call me brother, come, sit down."

As he spoke, he sat down on the sofa with a "bang".

Feng Shuo walked to the sofa with a smile on his face and sat down, but his heart was not calm.

Jing Tao has always done things that he didn't expect, such as after the rumors of the fight, he dragged on and refused to clarify, and fully cooperated with the crew's clarification and publicity the next day, and praised himself for his dedication in public, for example, he is now clearly releasing kindness to himself - this kind of kindness will only make Feng Shuo vigilant, after all, the greater the price the other party pays, the more things he wants.

Jing Tao didn't take the alienation that Feng Shuo carried under his politeness to heart, he opened two bottles of Erguotou in a row, and put one bottle directly in front of Feng Shuo.

"My assistant will send side dishes over in a while, fried peanuts, cucumber mixed with pig's head meat, two pots of head with belly explosion, but unfortunately the belly to send me here is definitely not as delicious as in the store, my favorite shop master can't invite it out today, otherwise let's let him come here to make us freshly eaten, just out of the pot for a few seconds, that is comfortable."

As he spoke, he picked up his bottle and touched Feng Shuo's.

Feng Shuo could only pick up the wine bottle, estimated the amount of Jing Tao drank, and poured it himself.

The pungency of the high alcohol slid from his throat to his stomach, and Feng Shuo let out a long breath, slightly relieving the burning sensation caused by the alcohol.

Seeing Feng Shuo drinking so many, Jing Tao laughed: "Okay, it's a man, I like to drink like this, drink two sips, eat two bites of food, then there is taste, what kind of bar do you young people go to every day, holding a glass of wine and chatting with ten girls, after the wine is drunk, the girls are gone, what's the point?" ”

With that, he touched the wine bottle with Feng Shuo again.

"I came to you for a drink today, the first thing is to make amends to you, the group of media at the beginning said nonsense, I had to drag it out until the matter was big, it was indeed deliberate, this matter is wrong with my brother, and my brother punished himself with half a bottle."

56 ° simple two-pot head, a bottle is 500 ml, self-punishment half a bottle is half a catty of high liquor, a sip of half a catty of liquor, the possibility of lying down in the hospital is really not small.

So Feng Shuo hurriedly stopped Jing Tao's movements and said to him, "You don't have to be so polite, it's not a big deal." ”

"Why isn't it a big deal? Who said it wasn't a big deal. ”

Jing Tao raised his hand to collect his vest straps, this action highlighted his toned shoulder muscles even more, and after two sips of wine, his body was already covered in a light sweat, and under the light, it seemed that his skin was shining.

Not at all like a man who is about to turn sixty.

Nor did he speak like a man who should have been retired in the general sense of the word.

"Do you know, for your business, Anlan called me, which is a big deal for me."

There are not many people who don't know Jing Tao in this country, and there are really too few people who really know him, he looked good and had superb acting skills, and he fascinated a whole generation, before the incident with An Lan broke out, people thought he was an ordinary actor who was a little talented and a little arrogant, just like now, how many people think that Jing Tao is personable and well-dressed.

As long as Jing Tao was willing to pretend, no one would know that he was a crazy and crazy guy, and now, obviously, he didn't disguise his true nature at all.

At the mention of An Lan's name, his eyes lit up.

Some people are destined to be each other's obstacles, and once they meet, they are each other's fate and sin, each other's achievements, and each other's polishing...... But there is only one ending that is mutually recognized.

Just like Jing Tao and An Lan.

Feng Shuo's slender and powerful fingers were holding the mouth of the wine bottle, and his hands flicked twice on it, and he didn't know what kind of response he should give Jing Tao.

Obviously, the other party called himself here today for An Lan's business.

"It's been nine years, the last time she called me was nine years ago, who was she here for...... Oh, for Liu Tingxin, Liu Tingxin offended someone when he was acting in a movie, that person happened to be my friend, so I stuck my friend to make a small thing a big thing, and then forced An Lan to call me, I waited for four days, and she did. ”

That person, her heart is hard and soft, she is cruel to herself, she is cruel to him, only those girls with her shadow on her body, she can't be ruthless no matter what.

Last time, Liu Tingxin was facing the situation of being blocked, and she carried it for four whole days, and she had no choice but to find herself. This time, her methods were simple and rude, and she called herself one night, to put it bluntly, not for the little white face in front of her at all, but for the little girl who was about to go abroad to win the award.

That thin and tall, young girl who looks young and old, where is she like An Lan? It's worth her to protect so carefully, except that her acting skills are really very different from her age, it's not a big deal.

The wine bottles touched again, and Jing Tao took two sips of the wine into his mouth, not caring if Feng Shuo drank it again.

Jing Tao's assistant opened the door quietly, and behind him, a person carried a huge incubator, and several side dishes with wine were packed on exquisite plates, which were delivered all the way without affecting the appearance in the slightest.

The man sitting on the couch with his head up waved casually, and his assistant put a few dishes on the coffee table and led the people out again.

"Half of the wine is drunk, and the food comes, alas, sometimes things are just early and late, and something is not right. If I had met her before I got married, it would certainly not be like this now, and I would have been able to guard her to the death......"

Feng Shuo didn't speak, raised his hand and took a sip of wine.

Time is the most uncertain, I used to hear people talk about fate, said that fate is destined for three lives, said that there is no fate, and it is really to my own body to understand the ridiculousness and helplessness in it.

"Back then, when An Lan and I met, I had already married my wife, my teacher's daughter, if you want to talk about feelings, you really don't have it, if you want to talk about responsibility, I really can't get rid of it...... As for Anlan, she is as young as a jasmine flower, and her enthusiasm is like a little sun. ”

The man looked at the ceiling of his house, and the carved ornaments of solid wood hung over it, a somewhat funny fat tiger.

"We are acting as a couple, the filming environment is far less comfortable than now, you see that when you were filming, you were still busy with two assistants and a bodyguard, I was filming by myself and left with my bag, in the small mountain col, there was not even a place to watch TV, and I couldn't read the newspapers...... I only have her, and she has only me. ”

Later, in their world, everyone wanted to get involved, and those who called them to persuade their friends, relatives, teachers, and classmates, who couldn't beat them, could tell themselves on the road that they couldn't live up to their wives......

"Some people love to watch other people's love and love the most, and then they have to point fingers and mind their."

Jing Tao took another sip of wine, and suddenly remembered that there was a young junior sitting next to him.

"Do you know what I'm looking for you for?"

Feng Shuo shook his head slightly.

"I've already said the first thing, and the second thing...... How about I help you chase that little girl? ”

Looking at Feng Shuo's surprised expression, Jing Tao laughed "hey, hey, hey", his voice became louder and louder, the young man's expression was so funny, he laughed so much that he slapped the table, and laughed until he almost choked himself.

"Aren't you almost thirty?" Coughing lightly twice, he waved his hand and refused Feng Shuo's help, "Like a child, you still blush when you say you like him, hahaha, this is not good, women don't like such men." ”

"You, take the initiative, read more "Thirty-six Strategies", what dark Chen Cang, what encirclement points are used to help, she is such a big little girl, it is difficult to get started, it really doesn't work, I cut off all the plays, let her empty the window for a year, you, who are handsome and rich and now in the middle of the day, what idol to help her, I don't believe she is not tempted......"

Jing Tao gushed endlessly, as if Chi Chi was already in Feng Shuo's palm, as long as he, a big man in the entertainment industry, made a move, he could send Chi Chi to Feng Shuo's arms.

What soul who doesn't want to, doesn't want to, can't get close, how can there be so many "nos", he has to become can, is this difficult?

"Just ......"

The man who had been sitting on the side of the couch suddenly spoke, and his tone was a little higher than that of him.

"You say countless people...... Pointing fingers at other people's feelings......"

When he said this, Jing Tao already understood what he meant.

"You mean, I'm just a layman pointing fingers?"

Jing Tao grabbed a peanut and threw it into his mouth, stood up, and swallowed the peanut with wine.

"Of course I'm a layman, did I say I'm not? In this world, I know a person who thinks he is a fairy, and that is An Lan...... Except for her, everyone was a layman. But no, I'm too tired of chasing her as a layman, and I wish she was a layman too, you say, she just needs to have a little bit-"

The man spun around with the bottle, obviously not knowing what words to use to describe his lover.

The face that was overwhelmed when he was young, and now he is also full of masculine charm, is full of dazed face.

"My mother, I liked you very much back then, and I also liked Teacher An."

Feng Shuo whispered, his face always had a youthful spirit, some people said it was because his clean eyes always had curiosity and longing for the world.

"She told me...... Although many people don't know about you and Mr. An now, people who liked you deeply at the beginning really remember that if you weren't married at the time, you and Mr. An were indeed a natural pair, but if you missed it, you missed it, even if you didn't love your wife at that time, but this relationship hurt her, hurt Teacher An, and hurt yourself...... Do you think that it is wrong for Mr. An to choose to end an inappropriate relationship? ”

Those eyes looked at Jing Tao, and for a moment Jing Tao felt that he didn't dare to look directly.

"Of course, maybe there is no right or wrong in feelings, but there is a distinction between right and wrong in people's hearts, wrong or wrong, you and Teacher An probably have different ideas, so they have different decisions...... You can't accept this difference, so you drag others into the water and drag Teacher An back to look at you...... What is the difference between them and those who dragged the moral stick to beat Teacher An? They have done a great deal of harm to Mr. An, what about you? What are you doing? ”

"I'm letting a young man educate me? Can you still educate me? Ha? What about you, An Lan can see that you like Chi Chi, and your agent probably knows it, and I can see it too...... And then what? You just listen to An Lan's words, what changes you, what goes...... What is the determination to go, what is the use?

Now that she has taken the Great Gaul, I have also watched Du An's old guy's "Shen Jiu", and he is going to take Chi Chi to Bridge City, with your current sophomore level acting skills, you can't catch up with her in achievements. Do you know what will happen to a young actress like her who has completed the film road of other people's lives in one year?

or was coaxed into a wife by a rhetorical actor, right, for the male actors in the circle, famous young actresses are the best marriage partners, they are worth tens of millions of dollars at a young age, and they are also beautiful, much easier to serve than rich women and rich second-generation ladies.

Either marry into a wealthy family, the queen of the movie, that is a layer of gold, a woman becomes a bodhisattva when she is plated, marry a bodhisattva and go home to offer, how many rich second generations do you think about it?

Do you think you have a lot of time? Can you teach me a lesson? I have at least been in love with An Lan, you are so boring, in the end, you can only watch her marry someone else with nothing. ”

Feng Shuo didn't speak, he raised his head and took a sip of wine, the Lu Li light folded out of the wine cabinet was reflected in his eyes, and he blinked his eyes, only then did he relieve the sourness in his heart because of Jing Tao's words.

"Anyway, I want her to get better and better."

The young man put down the bottle and said this, his cheeks were already flushed, only his eyes were getting brighter and brighter.

"I don't love her so much, I love so much that I can give up my principles as a human being, let me give up my conscience to hurt her, I can't do it. Can you guarantee that your liking for Teacher An really likes her, or likes yourself, so you can completely ignore her in order to get her? What you don't care about is love? Is disrespect love? ”

Feng Shuo comes from an ordinary family, and his parents gave him to be a man first and then do things, so seven years of bleakness will not make him confused, and his current feelings for Chi Chi will not make him forget who he is.

Maybe it's really because I don't love her enough.

But at least it's safe for both of them.

Jing Tao was enraged by Feng Shuo's questioning, he shook his body and took two steps in the direction of Feng Shuo, wanting to teach the young man a lesson, but he stumbled and almost fell to the ground.

It was the young man who was on the verge of being punched by him that held him up.

"I miss her...... I think I can see her every day when I open my eyes, and I've been thinking about it for thirty years, how can you say I don't love her......"

In the end, Jing Tao was a little choked, he was already old, he used to drink two bottles of this two-pot head, he could still play handstands, but now he is only half a bottle, and he can't stand steadily.

What do you want in life, but his hair is white, but the hair dye covers those annoying old age, and the person he wants to have a white head has also left him, so long, so long......

Just after the movie premiere that day, he finally caught up with An Lan.

"Can't we just say something? Just tell me a word, even if we talk about the movie just now, your kid is really good......"

"I think...... I don't love you anymore. The woman in the silk scarf had a chuckle on her face, she cried when she watched the movie just now, and her eyes were still red that made Jing Tao feel distressed.

"I'm already thinking that maybe one day I can find another person to live my life with, because now that you are appearing more and more in front of my eyes, I won't be afraid, afraid that I will give up what I want to hold on to because I love you."

We used to love each other so much, where are the years when you climbed out of the third-floor window to see me? What about the times when we are willing to hold hands and face all the criticism? What about those sweetness and togetherness? Those infatuated maniacs...... Like your sudden goodbye, you threw it all at me, leaving me alone to wait here?

At that moment, Jing Tao felt the biting cold in the June night wind.

Feng Shuo called the assistant outside the door, and helped the drunk Jing Tao to the bed with him before going downstairs to leave.

Maybe this poor man just wanted someone to drink, so he called his equally loving self?

Looking at the jumping numbers in the elevator, Feng Shuo took out his mobile phone and wanted to call Chi Chi.

After thinking about it, I finally took it back again.

There are many, many ways to express emotions in the world, forgive me for being cowardly and cowardly, when it is not right, I can only look at you from a distance and watch you quietly.

Only fame and fortune can protect you, but if I want fame and fortune, I am destined to keep something in my heart.

Looking at Jing Tao's appearance, the thoughts in his heart became more resolute.

The mirror in the elevator reflected his own slightly drunken face, gradually blurring and then regaining clarity.

Just like his own path.

……

Chef Chen's talent in cooking is gradually revealed, he is careful and patient, he already has a good skill in making soup and dim sum, and under the careful teaching of Chef Shen, the dishes he makes have his own distinctive characteristics.

"Well, the shrimp steamed by Feng Kitchen is really fresh and sweet. Pick the chopped ginger and put it on the table. ”

Chef Shen eats shrimp only with a little bit of shrimp head, and the rest is eaten with the shell.

The young man smiled and nodded, silently bringing the shrimp aside for the final finishing touches before serving.

Chef Shen turned his head, slapped the soup spoon in his hand, and picked up a little cooking wine and put it in the pot where the fish was fried.

Several fish were placed side by side at the bottom of the cauldron, and the touch of cooking wine and hot oil stirred up a strange aroma, washing away the fishy smell from their meat.

Chef Chen Feng rang the small bell for serving, and then turned back to give Chef Shen a hand, holding a kitchen knife in his hand, and carefully carving flowers on a radish.

"Steady is stable enough, you have to be fast, don't be afraid of breaking, broken usage, how many radish flowers can you make a day so slow?"

A cook passing behind him also casually pointed at her.

The young man who was being pointed out did not speak, but the movements of his hands suddenly sped up a lot, and the thin slices of red radish were turned out from under her knife little by little, and slowly landed on the plate below.

Chen Fengchu's expression was very focused, his waist was straight, revealing his too thin waist, and his brown short clothes were still a little empty on him, which was far better than when he fled.

In the past few months, he has undergone radical changes, but the careless cooks in front of him have not noticed.

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Lin Shilang's family invited Chef Shen to the house to make a banquet, and the table full of dignitaries and nobles were waiting to eat the steamed osmanthus fish made by Chef Shen.

"Feng Kitchen...... You do it for me. ”

His hand was just wrapped roughly, and Chef Shen untied his overcoat with one hand and put it on Chef Chen Feng's shoulder.

The young man's black and white eyes looked at the gown that had been washed many times without completely removing the fumes, and then looked at his master.

His master had a smile on his face.

"Okay, I'll do it."

As he spoke, he flicked his hand, and the gown was neatly put on his body.

Step by step, the young man walked to the stove, pushing aside those who were waiting to see the joke.

His gaze would not stop at those people at all, if there was anything in this world worthy of her attention, it was only the dish she had to make.

With one hand, he picked up the kitchen knife steadily.

“Cut!”

"Prepare for the next one immediately, and cook for it."

Chi Chi took the wet towel handed over by Chen Fang and wiped the sweat off his head.

It's July now, the scene is small, there are many people, and the lamp feels like it's going to roast people's heads.

"It's a good thing it's bald, otherwise it's even hotter now."

Chi Chi was extremely glad that he didn't choose to wear a hood but shaved his head, not only did he look at the same as those men, but more importantly, he was cool!

Chen Fang listened to Chi Chi's self-teasing speechlessly, and asked Chi Chi to drink a few more sips of water.

Dressed in the exact same clothes as Chi Chi, Ms. Shen walked out of the dressing room, her hair all combed to the top of her head, tightly tied into a bun.

"Oops, it's finally time for me to play."

Her hands were covered with the same makeup as Chi Chi, and she looked thick and powerful.

Seeing Chi Chi looking at her hand, she casually raised her hand and touched the little girl's head.

"Come, watch my sister cook fish for you."

A group of cooks suddenly appeared out of nowhere, blocking the area around the filming spot, and Ms. Shen pulled Chi Chi along, and they automatically gave way to the passage like the Red Sea through which Moses passed.

"Okay, let's see, don't get in trouble."

Ms. Shen dropped such a sentence to the cooks, and all the filming crew felt that the audience was quiet.

Chi Chi turned his head and watched Chef Pei make a zipper movement on his mouth.

On the other side, Chi Kaihua asked people to hang himself from the ceiling.

"It's hard for you to weigh more than 150 pounds, but it's best to wear a mask......"

The woman standing on the edge of the stove said this to the assistant director above.

"The smell of alcohol is a bit rushing, don't blame me if you don't shoot well when you get dizzy."

After instructing the above, she adjusted the position of the following materials.

Finally, a qiē is ready.

She picked up the knife, shook it, and said with emotion: "It's been a long time since I've used such a weighty knife to make fish." ”

As soon as the director said Action, the knife that was "emotional" turned into a shadow, and quickly crossed out the unsightly parts of the fins and tail.

Then, a cup of white wine was sprinkled on the knife, and the knife cut deep and shallow on the fish, so that the wine entered the texture of the fish along the knife, and the side of the fish was already full of flower knives, and the drop of wine sprinkled on the back of the knife had not yet slipped to the blade.

I grabbed a few thin slices of ginger and put them in the knife, and with a turn of my long hand, the fat fish turned over happily on the board.

Brought up a piece of water with the smell of wine.

After the fish is processed, the cauldron next to it has already burned to a very hot level, arrange the steaming rack on the pot, and put the whole fish on the steaming rack, without any containers, just put a piece of lard fat on it.

Lifting a jar of good wine and smelling it, the cook's face showed a satisfied smile.

The wine swirls around the hot pan for a week, and the rich aroma of the wine rushes to the fish on the steaming rack......

Closing the lid of the cauldron, she cut the green onion and ginger into thin strips, made the juice of the steamed fish with soy sauce and other materials on another stove, and finally boiled two spoonfuls of hot oil.

All the movements are so fast that people are dizzying, and with the calm and calm expression of the person who cooks, it makes people feel that this is not a cooking, but more like a performance.

A performance that is more intoxicating than alcohol.

After a few minutes, a rich aroma gradually emerged from the pot, the aroma of wine, mixed with the fresh aroma of fish and a little bit of oil......

Several photographers were afraid that their deep breathing would be recorded, so they had to cover their noses with their hands.

Take the steamer off the steamer with the fish, place the fish on a shallow dish, and remove the original ginger slices.

The red soup was poured on it, and the yellow and green green onion and ginger shreds were also sparsely sprinkled on top of each other.

The man stood like a pine, with one hand behind his back and the other scooping up a spoonful without a single stain of water.

The hot oil is just right, and a spoon is poured to stir up a strong fragrance.

Suddenly, the fish were drunk, the people were drunk, and the room was drunk.
