I'm back, I'm so sorry that I've been off for so long, and I'm going to double every day from today~

PS: The tour guide in Yunnan is so terrifying, they brainwashed us all the way, asked us to buy jadeite, and vigorously supported the development of ethnic minorities~

The most terrifying thing is that I have to boil chicken soup for the soul every day, which really scares the baby to death......

――――――

Usually when this kind of borrowing money happens, the creditor will first ask: "What are you borrowing money for?"

And Huo Ziqiu didn't ask, he just silently took out a fifty note and handed it to An Ning.

"Thank you." An Ning took the money, with a faint excitement and expectation on her face.

After hesitating for a while, she raised her head suddenly, with a bright smile on her face, and said to Huo Ziqiu, "I'll invite you to eat cake."

After coming here for so many days, Huo Ziqiu has not seen An Ningxiao, that smile is very gentle, absolutely harmless to humans and animals. But now this smile, which has faded from its gentle coat, is extremely full of vitality.

Because of this smile, although Huo Ziqiu didn't want to eat the cake, he nodded inexplicably.

The film and television base is far away from the city, and the two took a bus to the city, and An Ning walked to a dessert shop with ease.

This dessert shop is in a small alley, with a small façade, which is inconspicuous.

An Ning seemed to see Huo Ziqiu's hesitation, and explained a little embarrassedly: "Although the façade is not big, the things here are delicious."

There was only a young girl in the store, and when she saw An Ning coming in, she smiled at her and said, "I haven't seen you here for a long time." looked at Huo Ziqiu behind her again, and said clearly, "This time it's finally not alone."

An Ning didn't explain, nodded at her, and then walked straight to the glass cabinet and bent down, pointing to a small pure white cake inside: "Give me this."

"Why are you inviting me to eat cake?" After sitting down around a small table, the pure white cake was brought and placed on the table, Huo Ziqiu finally couldn't help asking.

An Ning didn't answer immediately, but carefully cut the cake into two parts and pushed one of them to him: "The name of this cake is 'The Other Side', I've always wanted to taste it."

"The other side?"

"yes, that's a good name, isn't it?" An Ning dug a spoonful and put it in his mouth, revealing a satisfied look.

She continued: "I've wanted to eat this for a long time, so I'll come here to see it if it's okay, so that the shopkeeper knows me."

Huo Ziqiu asked suspiciously: "They said that you have been here for a long time, how come you don't even have fifty yuan?"

An Ning's expression was a little sluggish for a while, but he quickly adjusted again: "Anyway, thank you really for today."

After saying this, the two didn't seem to have much to talk about, An Ning raised her eyes and looked at Huo Ziqiu, and had nothing to say: "Are you here to be a star?"

"Stars? No, I have come to clear up the doubts in my heart. ”

"Confused?"

"yes, a big doubt."

An Ning blinked: "What doubts?" ”

Huo Ziqiu dug a spoonful of cake, but he was not in a hurry to put it in his mouth, just pinched the handle of the spoon and pondered. His mother's experiences and encounters remind him all the time that those who are far away from this circle should never get involved in the film and television industry.

However, people are not as good as heaven, and he didn't expect that once he came into contact with acting, his love for it in his bones would not be able to be stopped.

"I ...... I don't know if I want to keep acting. Huo Ziqiu was silent for a while before whispering a word.

His mother's affairs, his inner entanglement with performance, in fact, has never been told to outsiders, even his friend Gao Huan doesn't know. But now, in the face of tranquility, Huo Ziqiu felt unexpectedly relieved, as if he could tell everything to him.

"Why don't you act? If you want to act, stick with it. An Ning disagreed: "Actually, you don't have to worry about anything, after a long time, you will naturally have an answer." ”

Huo Ziqiu smiled: "You seem to understand very well." ”

An Ning nodded: "This is not a difficult thing in the first place, you can see it by looking at the door of the film and television base, there are people walking and coming every day." Although they were full of enthusiasm when they came, it is difficult to say how long such enthusiasm lasted. Some are a week, some are a month, some are a year, some are five years or even ten years. So you don't have to worry about it, when the time comes, you can't stand it anymore, and you will pack up and go home. ”

She said it very naturally and directly, matching her eyes, as if she was saying that Huo Ziqiu was too pretentious.

"It's not that I can't persevere, it's just that I ......" Huo Ziqiu muttered: "Although I like acting, I don't like the circle of acting, this circle, which can wipe out all the beauty and kindness in people." If you are not careful, you may fall to pieces. ”

An Ning ate several bites of cake in a row before looking up: "Have you ever heard the phrase 'food is wasted due to choking'?" If you've heard it, then you shouldn't dwell on this issue anymore. She took out a tissue from her bag, wiped her mouth, and continued: "Although I can't be considered a real actor yet, I also understand the complexity of this circle. ”

She paused, her eyes bitter, and looked out the window. Outside the window, it was already dark, and the small alley was quiet, and there was not much walking.

Probably because the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, a moon rises in the sky, which is almost perfect.

An Ning looked at the bright moon and said softly: "Above the world, where is it not full of cunning and sinister? This circle is no different from other circles. Last year, before I took the college entrance examination, my father wanted to do some business and save some money for my schooling, but I didn't expect to be cheated out of his last deposit by a few friends who have known him for more than ten years...... So you see, even a small citizen in the market will do such a dirty thing. ”

Her side face is very beautiful, reflecting a faint silver glow, which is confusing.

Huo Ziqiu looked a little fascinated, An Ning turned her head suddenly, and the previous bitterness and sadness were put away by her in an instant. With a smile, she is the seemingly gentle, but in fact sparse actor is at peace.

Huo Ziqiu asked, "Do you like acting?" ”

An Ning seemed to be overwhelmed by this question, and was stunned for a moment before answering: "I like it, of course I like it." ”

"The days to come are so long, can you really stick to this liking and not be swayed by fame and fortune?" Huo Ziqiu asked.

"I'm not an immortal, how can I know what will happen in the future?" An Ning looked at Huo Ziqiu's eyes and said, "No one can predict the changes in the future, but we can't stop because of this. At least today, I'm still obsessed with acting, and I can't help but be moved by those temptations. ”

At that time, the moon was so round and bright, and the moonlight reflected the glass and the peaceful face.

Huo Ziqiu always remembered the girl sitting opposite him, and asked lightly: "Aren't these enough?" ”
