Chapter 182: Movie

When Wang Xixi opened her eyes, the room was still dark, and she subconsciously thought that it was still early, so she pressed the phone screen in a daze.

The sleepy eyes that had been worried a moment ago suddenly dilated, and there was no trace of sleepiness.

The phone screen showed that it was 8 a.m.

She jumped straight out of bed like a fish, walked to the window, and pulled the curtains open.

It was already dark, and the sun was unceremoniously spraying her face, as if giving her a big slap in the face.

Since my mother changed the thicker curtains, she has rarely been able to get up early, and when she wakes up, she always feels that it is still night.

But not today, today she has an important task on her shoulders.

After four years of college, she decided to return to this small town and work as an intern in Cityscape magazine.

Just a few days ago, the president called her into his office and handed her a movie ticket.

Wang Xixi took it, the president is going to invite her to watch a movie today, should it be ......?

As it turned out, she was overthinking.

The president said expressionlessly, "This month's magazine is going to interview the director of this movie, and we have considered it comprehensively, so let's give this opportunity to you young people." And among you young people, you are the most reliable. So you do your homework first these days. This week, I will try to take down the interview with this director. The manuscript will be given to me next Monday. ”

Wang Xixi pricked up his ears and listened to the president's words, but his eyes swept a few times on the movie ticket.

Escape from Yongning.

That's the name of that movie.

"I'll send you the director's address and contact information on MSN." The president lowered his head, took a sip of his coffee, and began fiddling with some papers on the table.

Wang Xixi knew that it was time for him to leave, "President Xie Xie gave me this opportunity, and I will try my best to do a good job." If nothing happens, I'll go first. ”

Absentmindedly, she walked out of the president's office, and all she could think about was the movie "Escape from Yongning". It's a new movie, it's only been three days since its release, and it's like a tornado that has swept through the city.

Li Jing had long wanted to take her to watch it together, but she never had time, so Li Jing had to go to watch this movie with Ren Er. After reading it, they desperately recommended it to her.

Wang Xixi has always had an aversion to this kind of novelty, the hit TV series, the most popular songs at the moment, and the hot topics on Weibo...... She hates both.

But in order to keep my job, it doesn't hurt to go and see it, and I won't lose a piece of meat.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Wang Xixi sat alone in the dimly lit movie theater, watching the people around her holding large buckets of popcorn and Coke, and she stubbornly pinched the mineral water bottle in her hand. After all these years, she is still used to drinking water, only water.

At some point, we have to admit that the public's vision is still not wrong, there are not so many mentally handicapped and brainless people in the world, and not all audiences don't use their brains when watching movies.

This movie makes Wang Xixi's heart very heavy, and it is a story of darkness and light.

The protagonist Yin Zhe was born in a small county town called Yongning. The black ditch beside the highway was covered with white foam, and the disgusting smell seemed to break into Wang Xixi's nose through the screen. There will always be spots on the streets that are not cleaned. The people here are numb, apathetic and lifeless.

Even in schools, perverted teachers who angrily physically punish students, girls crying helplessly, boys clenching their fists. The minors beat up the teacher.

The friends around him have nothing to do all day long and get into the underworld.

Only Yin Zhe was admitted to the university alone and escaped from Yongning.

Wang Xixi was deeply impressed by Yin Zhe's graduation dinner with his college roommate. The other three big boys talk about their ideal future, whether they want to be entrepreneurs or scientists, in short, some great aspirations that seem to be magnificent. When it was Yin Zhe's turn, he only said one sentence: I want to be a good person.

The roommate laughed and said, "You think you're playing Infernal Affairs."

Yin Zhe also smiled, his smile was bright and sad, he knew that they would not understand and would not understand.

Wang Xixi has been sitting in her seat and reminiscing about this last scene, and she slowly stood up when the people in the cinema were almost gone. The movie was so heavy that she couldn't straighten her waist. Every pore on the scalp feels like a needle has been inserted inside.

When she turned to leave, she realized that there was another person besides her in the empty theater.

The man sat in the back row of the theater, painted in the dim light. If it weren't for those eyes, Wang Xixi wouldn't have noticed him at all.

Those eyes, shining brightly in the darkness, were as deep as the night with no end in sight.

A familiar gaze, she subconsciously thought that the person was back. Tears glistened in his eyes. The frequency of her heart beating made her think it was going to explode. The bottle of mineral water creaked in her hand, and she approached him with a small flame in her heart.

The man stood up.

Wang Xixi's heart fell suddenly, it wasn't him.

"How's the movie?" The man was wearing a loose black sweatshirt with neatly trimmed hair, and he took the initiative to speak to her.

Wang Xixi hadn't recovered from the loss just now, and subconsciously said, "It's okay." ”

The man stared at her with interest, "Everyone else has a high evaluation." ”

"The content is profound." Wang Xixi's soul only came back at this time, and she immediately realized what she had just said, and wanted to make up for it, "It's a bit heavy, is there really a place like Yongning in the world?" ”

The man smiled, his eyes brightened when he laughed, "Yes." ”

Together, they walked out of the cinema.

When he came to a place with light, Wang Xixi began to look at the man seriously. He was very thin, his white sweatpants swaying back and forth as if they were filled with wind, and only the feet in the white canvas shoes proved that his legs were there.

His hair was slightly messy, especially the back of his head, as if he had just leaned against the back seat of the movie theater.

"How about we go get some food together?" The man offered to offer.

Wang Xixi raised her wrist, it was past ten o'clock, but she looked at the man in front of her and did not refuse.

She had to admit that there was something attractive about this man.

Song Senran's call came at this time.

"Sissy, where are you at such a late hour?"

"I'll take care of some things out there and I'll be back in a minute." Wang Xixi dealt with him.

There was unconcealed anxiety in Song Senran's voice, "Then I'll pick you up." ”

"No need." Wang Xixi replied to him calmly, "I can do it myself." ”

Song Senran hung up the phone anxiously, for so many years, she has always been like this, she is like this to him, and never lets him get close.
