Pei Ji originally planned to stay in the UK for a week, but since the short reasoning trip after the award ceremony, he really has no mood to stay any longer.

However, awkward to awkward, after all, he still couldn't resist the curiosity in his heart, Pei Ji made a decision on a rare sunny day after two days, and went to the royal palace to take a look before returning to China.

He thought about taking a look at it, seeing what kind of environment a talented actor like Zhou Heting was carved into beautiful jade, and what kind of stage he had worked on for four years.

Dating back to the early days of the Hanoverian dynasty, the Royal is one of London's oldest theatres, and has been rebuilt and fortified by numerous gunfire fires from two world wars.

It seems that just in time for the end of the last drama, there are groups of well-dressed upper-class men and women walking out of the theater with smiles and smiles, and Pei Ji's behavior against the current is a little abrupt.

"Sir?" said a doorman amicably, "is there anything I can do for you?"

Pei Ji looked at the gorgeous dome a little distracted, "Huh...... Actually, I'm here to ask someone. As he spoke, he handed the phone to the employee with a puzzled expression, "Do you know this person?"

The doorman glanced at it and hesitated slightly, "This...... I've not been working here for long, may I ask who this is......"

"It's a guy who used to be a resident actor at this theater. Pei Ji paused for half a second, and bluntly pronounced out the unfamiliar English name, "Carlos Chow, I don't know if you have any impressions." ”

The doorman gave a slightly apologetic expression, "I'm sorry, sir, I don't know this man, but maybe my boss knows that he's been working here for a long time." As he spoke, he took out a walkie-talkie to open the channel, and indeed helped Pei Ji pager his boss.

While waiting, the doorman asked curiously, "Sir, what is your relationship with this person?"

Pei Ji put away his mobile phone, and he didn't know how to answer this question, "I'm a friend of his, I just want to know more about him." ”

"That's right......," the doorman muttered for a moment, suddenly remembering something, and said excitedly, "Sir, we have a brochure here that will record all the information about the resident actors, if your friend has actually performed here, I think it will be recorded, if you want to take a look, I can take you to the front desk." ”

Hearing this, Pei Ji naturally agreed, and he followed the doorman to the curved round table at the front desk, and the doorman immediately took out an extremely thick book from the hole in the table and opened it with great difficulty.

"In what year did that friend of yours officially become the resident actor here?"

"I think it was about four years ago. ”

"Four years ago......" the doorman muttered as he quickly searched it up, and finally turned to the first few records of that year at the very back of the manual.

Several faces of Westerners flipped over, and Zhou Heting's black hair and face with an oriental charm like an ink painting finally appeared in front of the two.

"Ah, here it is!" the doorman whispered with a little excitement, "Carlos Chow!"

Pei Ji looked at that face, but he was slightly distracted.

Although it has only been more than four years, the twenty-two-year-old Zhou Jiting seems to have really changed from him now. At that time, Zhou Erting had a healthy and sunny temperament like all young people who had just entered the society, and his facial features did not change too abruptly, but revealed a trace of ignorance that has long since dissipated. Although Zhou Erting has Western blood, the boy Xiao's mother, his eyebrows and eyes can still see a very strong oriental atmosphere, in a Caucasian race of resolute faces, like a landscape painting, hazy but unforgettable.

Twenty-two-year-old Zhou Heting stared at the camera without smiling, as if his personality since he was a child was as bad at expressing emotions as he is now, and his reserved and introverted temperament can be clearly seen compared with the local actors before and after this page. At that time, a faint melancholy could still be seen in Zhou Erting's eyes, and his armor did not seem to be so perfect, but four years had passed, and now it was difficult to see the fluctuations in him that touched the essence.

Pei Ji's fingers involuntarily climbed up the corner of the page, he felt that the Zhou and Ting in front of him were extremely unfamiliar, but it seemed to be the most real Zhou and Listen.

A man's questioning voice came from behind him, "Aelx, who's looking for me?"

The doorman immediately pointed respectfully at Pei Ji, "This gentleman." ”

Seeing that Pei Ji didn't look up, the man called out tentatively, "Sir, which actor do you want to ask for information?"

Pei Ji finally looked at him, and did not answer, but patted the manual with his hand, "I have found it." ”

The man looked at the manual and couldn't help but smile apologetically: "I'm really sorry sir, Carlos is no longer performing with us, in fact, there have been guests asking about his situation in the past few months, but our doorman has just taken up his post and doesn't know the situation very well." As he said this, he gestured to Aelx and told him to go back and do his job, and for a while, only Pei Ji and him were left in the corner of the front desk.

"I knew I was his new friend in China. ”

Hearing this, the man became visibly cordial, "Well, how is Carlos doing, and continuing his acting career, right?"

"Yes, he's doing well in China now. ”

The man breathed a sigh of relief, "Actually, an actor like him will achieve success wherever he goes." When he was going to leave here and go to China, we were very reluctant, but I think it would be good for him to live in a different environment when he was in that situation. ”

He ...... What happened to him?"

"Hey, in fact, I still can't get rid of so many things, family relationships, love relationships. In fact, he and his lover already had a lot of conflicts at that time, and during that time, Carlos was occasionally absent-minded during the rehearsal, knowing that this was something that could not have happened to him. I've also seen them arguing in the alley at the backstage exit, and both of them had a very bad time. ”

Pei Ji looked at Zhou Heting's photo and asked, "Then you know him and his ...... What happened between boyfriends?"

The man stammered: "It's nothing more than that the two people have to take different paths, Carlos is famous for his low-key in our area, it is said that Carlos is not his real name, he is a good actor who really regards acting as a career, our veteran artists here like him very much, even the directors of the theater appreciate him very much, and he was persuaded for a long time when he insisted on leaving." But what about his lover...... Well, in fact, the first time I looked at him, I knew that he and Carlos were not all the way, that person was bound to become a well-known big star at first glance, and the strength was naturally there, but it was definitely different from what Carlos was pursuing.

I think it's probably because the boyfriend has too much socializing and too many scruples, so he can't give Carlos the affection he needs, but ...... Since you also know Carlos, you should naturally know that he has everything in his heart, and is not very keen on communicating with people, and conflicts will naturally arise. Maybe it's because of that half of the Oriental blood, I've always thought that Carlos has a very typical Oriental mystery and complexity, and of course, he is also stubborn, stubborn to death. ”

He said and laughed, "Carlos's temperament is very charming, very gentlemanly, it can be seen that the tutor is very good, and many spectators came to him during the years when he was a resident, and to tell you the truth, some gentlemen ...... This is by no means an isolated case...... I'm also a fan of Carlos. ”

Pei Ji also laughed when he heard this, "Hmm...... It's really rare in the UK. ”

The man couldn't help but laugh when he heard the teasing in his words, "So did you just want to inquire about him this time, or did you ......?"

"I just want to know more about him," Pei Ji showed a faint wry smile, "He never told me about these things, so I had to ask myself." ”

The man understood, "Carlos is such a person, otherwise it wouldn't be him." You must know that Carlos was also very keen on actor lace at the beginning, you must not have imagined that such a serious person would also like these little gossip. However, in fact, the person who really hides the most topics is himself. ”

Pei Ji heard him sigh like this, and he didn't know whether to cry or laugh, it turned out that this person had been like this before, "That's right...... He is really mysterious and loves to gossip. ”

The man winked at him playfully, "Ambiguity is attractive, isn't it." So, sir, are you going to enjoy a play here, and our hottest plays of the season are Shakespeare's masterpieces and the latest works by popular theatre actors......"

Pei Ji smiled and politely declined his enthusiastic offer, "No thanks, I think I would actually prefer to watch a drama starring Carlos." ”

The man did not show his depression, but recommended more enthusiastically: "That's okay, we can also rent out drama videos here, I think we do have some works starring Carlos that have not been rented out, but there is not much inventory, and if you want to rent it, you have to hurry." ”

Pei Ji turned his head and looked at the strange Zhou He again, he thought that his masochistic gossip journey had come to an end, and he didn't need to make up for himself anymore.

So he politely rejected the man again.

"I want to ...... I can go and see the work he is starring in now, so ...... Still don't have to. But...... Maybe you can give me something else. ”

"Huh?" the lobby manager was a little confused.

Pei Ji returned to the hotel with a low voice, and Xiao Jing was dutifully packing his luggage for him to prepare for tomorrow's boarding.

"You really think you're here for a tour...... I don't care about anything, and I don't participate in any activities. Xiao Jing folded his clothes while complaining about his daily life, and he didn't see Pei Ji's absence.

"As soon as I go out for half a day, where do you go shopping?"

Pei Ji sat on the sofa, staring at the dark TV screen and only felt tired, "I went to the theater...... Nothing was done. ”

"Strange, what are you doing in the theater?"

"I said, I didn't do anything. ”

Xiao Jing raised his head and looked at him, "What's wrong with you?"

"Xiaojing...... I suddenly don't want to go back now. Pei Ji sighed and said to himself, "I don't know how to face him now...... Anyway, he can really hide it. ”

"Who are you talking about? And you've not been normal since then. ”

Pei Ji touched his eyebrows in distress, "Who else can there be, he just listened." ”

"Mr. Zhou, what's wrong with him?"

Pei Ji sank deep into the sofa and slurred his words: "I really did my own thing...... There's a saying that says that curiosity kills cats. ”
