The night window covers the sound of rain and covers the curtain of rain scene after scene. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The rain was falling at dusk, and thunder could still be heard at night, faint, short, and distant.
Huang Zhenxi stood under the window and listened, only to hear the rain drum knocking on the window, and the feet were chaotic. Imagine that in the clouds, the huge chariot carrying the gods should have long since disappeared into the endless night.
After being stunned for a long time, Huang Zhenxi was awakened by a phone call, and looking at the display on the screen, it was not what she expected. Take back your thoughts, adjust your mood, and get on the phone.
"Mom."
"Daughter, where are you now?"
"What about at home, what's wrong? Mom, do you miss me? ā
"Hehe, you stinky girl, can't you call you if your mother doesn't want to?"
"Where? But I miss my mother. ā
"If you want me to come back, my mother won't run away, you can see me when you go home, you stinky temper, just because your father didn't agree with you to be an actor, and after saying a few words to you, you ran away from home angrily and moved out to live alone. I haven't been home a few times in so many years, and I haven't stayed long every time I come back, and my mother is very worried about you. Come back, daughter, although your father is hard-mouthed and says some angry words, he also misses you too, and now he sighs every day. Zhen Hee, are dreams really that important? Is it worth it for you to suffer in order to become an actor? Mom and Dad don't want you to be so tired..."
"Mom..."Huang Zhenxi interrupted her mother, "Mom, your daughter should have her own dreams and pursuits when she grows up, and she can't be under your wing forever. I want to take advantage of my youth to persevere, have you seen the results of some time ago? I'm an actor in popular films right now. Mom, don't persuade me, I still have to stick to my own path..."
"Okay, mom won't say it, although the weather is getting warmer, but you have to take care of yourself, it's raining again today, remember to wear one more piece of clothing, don't always want something beautiful and cold, what is the use of being beautiful, you can't eat or wear, can you cure a cold? I miss home, I miss my parents, I will come back to see, the distance is not far, when you come back, my mother will make you something to eat. ā
"Well, I see, thank you Mom!"
"Thank you, how can a daughter thank her own mother."
......
After hanging up the phone, as if her mother's kind voice was still lingering in her ears, she reached out and stroked it, as if she wanted to hold it tightly, but finally slowly dispersed.
When he received a call that day, Huang Zhenxi put down what he was doing, rushed to J.L Company, and said hello to Li Yaling, who had just called him.
"Good morning! Yaling. ā
"Good morning! Jane Iony. ā
"What's the matter? Why didn't he call me himself? ā
Li Yaling's face was a little heavy, "I don't know the specifics, but the president's face is ugly, Ernie you have to be ready." ā
Huang Zhenxi nodded, and then knocked on the office door.
"Knock knock" "Knock knock"
There was no response, and Hwang Jin-hee pushed the door and walked in.
There were no lights in the room, the shutters in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows were open, and through the dim light, Huang Zhenxi saw that he was standing in front of the window with his back to him, quietly looking at the snowflakes floating outside the window.
"What's wrong? Mu Xuan, so anxious. I didn't come late, the snow outside was too heavy, and the road was blocked for a while. Han Muxuan's clothes were thin, and Huang Zhenxi felt cold when he looked at it.
Thinking about waiting to wrap her scarf around him, she continued: "It's so cold, why do you wear so little, what if you catch a cold?" ā
"Close the door first." Han Muxuan didn't turn around, his hands were behind his back, still looking at the flying snow outside the window.
Huang Zhenxi listened to the familiar voice, still very magnetic, and his tone was gentle, but it did not have the warmth and warmth of the past, and there was a slight hint of coldness. I thought to myself, maybe he was in a bad mood. Closing the door, Huang Jinxi walked to his side and stood quietly.
"Look at the snow, listen to the snow." Han Muxuan pushed open a small window in front of him and let the biting cold wind enter.
Looking at the snow? Listen to the snow? Can snow still be heard? Huang Zhenxi was very puzzled, looking at Han Muxuan's cold side face, she nodded quietly, and then her eyes drifted out of the window, drifting to the crystal snowflakes flying and swaying in the air.
"Khooth!" Han Muxuan faced the snowflakes, took out the sterling silver kerosene lighter and lit the cigarette in his mouth, took a deep breath, slowly exhaled, and flicked the ash into the coffee cup in his hand.
"You took "The Elephant on the Top Floor"?"
"Yes."
"I don't know."
"I hadn't joined the company at the time, so I didn't mention it."
"Why?"
"I'm a debut actor." After a pause, Huang Zhenxi, who was chilled by the wind, wrapped the scarf on his body tightly and said quietly, "I need a shortcut, I'm 30 this year, I don't have much time, only breakthrough roles can quickly become famous." ā
"Oh? Do you become famous? Interesting! Although Han Muxuan's tone rose and fell slightly, he was still indifferent, and his content and tone were very inconsistent. You know? Do you understand? ā
"I know, and I understand." Huang Zhenxi interfaced, and her voice carried unmistakable firmness.
"Bang..."
A sudden loud noise frightened Huang Zhenxi into taking a few steps back, and after calming down a little, looking at the coffee stains mixed with cigarette ash on the ground, the frightened Huang Zhenxi hurriedly patted Gao Ting's chest.
"You understand, what do you understand?" smashed the cup, and Han Muxuan, who suddenly turned around, had a frost on his face, with unprecedented coldness and coldness, and suddenly spoke.
"You think that if you take off this skin, you can easily succeed, you think that you can let go of yourself and live in hypocrisy, this is the real entertainment industry, you think that letting go of pride and self-esteem is the fastest secret to success. Is this what you know and understand? Naively to realize self-worth and chase dreams. ā
"I..." his heart tightened, his face turned pale, and his pupils dilated in an instant, and Huang Zhenxi was interrupted by Han Muxuan just as he was about to open his mouth.
"I've been thinking about how to plan for you, so that you can walk more steadily, but you..." sighed heavily, Han Muxuan approached Huang Zhenxi, and looked directly into her distracted eyes.
"For the sake of dreams, no means are compromised, no hesitation to give up everything, sacrifice everything, look for the so-called shortcut, win the so-called success, is it worth it? Have you thought about it? Never regret it? ā
Without glancing at the bloodless woman on the side with silver teeth biting her lips, Han Muxuan put on her coat, stepped over, and turned to leave.
"I've found your agent, and you can handle your own affairs in the future, I... No more asking and participating. ā
With a thud, the door slammed shut.
The night rain was long, and at this moment, Huang Zhenxi, who was pillowing on the bed, couldn't sleep with his eyes closed.
"Zhenxi, Dad is old, you have grown up, you are 26 years old this year, can you come back to help Dad. Dad's energy is a little too much to take care of now, and his memory is not as good as before, don't you see, Dad miscalculated an account today, but your mother complained a lot, and he kept talking about it just now. ā
Her father smiled and put her chopsticks on her favorite dish in her bowl, turned his head and glanced at his mother, grinning embarrassedly, in exchange for a big roll of his mother's eyes.
"I told you a long time ago to ask you to go to the hospital for a check-up, but you just won't. Your waist and neck are not good, and they often ache and ask you to go for a check-up, and you are not happy and say that you are healthy. You are now old, and you are no longer the young man you used to be, what if you have a three-year-old and two-short, leaving us orphans and widows. Daughter, help me persuade your father. The smile on her mother's face faded, and her features wrinkled and became worried.
Seeing his father's pale sideburns, Huang Zhenxi's eyes slowly turned red, "Dad, I'll accompany you to check it up tomorrow, so that you can rest assured, and then you can do a full body physical examination by the way to prevent it." ā
"Okay, good, it's still a daughter's filial piety, as long as you come back to help Dad, Dad will promise you to check it tomorrow." The father smiled and agreed.
Facing the expectant look of his father and mother, Huang Zhenxi shook his head, "Dad, let's go check tomorrow first, and we'll talk about it later." ā
Hearing his daughter's answer, the father looked very disappointed, but continued with expectations: "In this case, I will ask Uncle Huang to arrange a position for you tomorrow, and exercise in his company first, so that you feel that you are self-reliant, is this okay?" ā
"Dad, you don't know, I rehearse during the day and have to perform on stage at night, how can I have time to go to work?"
"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, how can you come back and give up your ethereal dream of being an actor, just rely on the stage play you are playing now that no one watches?" The father put down the dishes and chopsticks heavily and scolded angrily.
Huang Zhenxi shook his head silently, without words.
Seeing that the atmosphere at the dinner table was not good, the mother opened her mouth to break the deadlock, "Okay, okay, don't be angry, don't be angry, eat, let's talk about this later." ā
"What else to eat, in order to be a low-status actor, let go of a good life, but I have to endure hardships and be looked down upon, not to mention that everyone knows how chaotic that circle is, let our daughter in, can you rest assured? You see, I can't look at it. After a sharp reprimand, my father slapped the table angrily and got up to leave.
"Xiaoxi, when I grow up, I want to be a teacher, a great people's teacher, like our teachers, cultivating the future flowers of the motherland, what about you, Xiaoxi?"
A little girl with pigtails on her head said milkily to a little girl with a double ponytail and a pink hairpin on her head.
"I want to be an actor, a trending actor who interprets all kinds of life and brings joy and sorrow to the audience."
At this time, the girl with two ponytails looked at a small shop on the side of the street, where a movie was playing, and then the little girl turned her head, her small and delicate face full of longing and determination.
