Chapter 168
Shen Dongyuan really "occasionally" came to see her, not very often, once a week, and most of them came to see his son, Shen Dongyuan is the kind of person who only cares about his own pleasure, and doesn't care about the inheritance of his ancestors or his descendants, he thought about bringing his son to his family to raise, but he didn't mention it again after his mother refused.
Later, Ye Linglan gradually grew up, and since she could remember, she felt that her home was a little strange.
His mother taught him to read and write very early, and also bought some storybooks and children's picture books for him to read, but the picture books and storybooks he saw all said that the child lived with his parents, why was there only his mother by his side, but his father only came once in a long time?
Also, the children in the book say that they have a lot of playmates, they play together every day, and they are very happy, why don't they even have a playmate, only when they go shopping with their mother, they will only see children of the same age, but he doesn't know anyone, so he naturally doesn't dare to talk to others, let alone develop into a "playmate".
It wasn't until he was six years old that he went to elementary school, and finally had "friends" for the first time, when he got along with them every day, and when he came home from school, he waited to see his mother waiting at home, and his father would come over once a week, buy him some good food and toys, and take him to the playground, and he also asked his father why he didn't live with them, and his father said that he was very busy and had to earn money outside to support the family.
It was Ye Linglan's happiest day so far, and it was still an important part of his "sweet dream" until now, and unfortunately eight years have passed.
When he was eight years old, his mother died of illness, and when he left, he held his hand and said that he was sorry for him and hoped that he would grow up well.
The father held a funeral for his mother, but there were very few guests, and he saw his grandparents and other relatives who lived in other cities for the first time, but they hated their father, and hated Ye Linglan, the child of the murderer who killed their daughter, so they left after their mother's funeral and never saw them again.
His father asked Ye Linglan if he wanted to go home with him, he refused, he wanted to stay in this house where his mother had existed, and he didn't need anything else.
In fact, Ye Linglan thought about it carefully, although his life experience was more miserable, it was not "twists and turns", let alone "perverted", which should also be the reason why he did not have psychopathic revenge on society, although he did not hate, but his mother hoped that he would be well, and he didn't want her to be sad.
From then on, he lived alone in this house that looked like a paradise from the outside, he lived in the bedroom with his mother for eight years, and he still dreams of her often, and for the first year his father would regularly find someone to clean the house, ask the cook to teach him how to cook at his request, and then he would let everyone leave his house after he learned to cook himself, and he could do the cleaning himself.
He still went to school as usual, and his father would come to see him once a week, and he has continued to do so until now.
There is another sentence that Ye Linglan wants to say, that is, he is very grateful to his mother for letting him go to school, getting to know those classmates, and returning him to the "normal" world, those good friends' homes are normal, they occasionally invite Ye Linglan to the house as a guest, and when he is with them, he also becomes a normal human being, which can be regarded as making up for the regret of his mother's absence.
Without them, what would have become of Ye Linglan's mother? …… There's no need to think about it......
"Okay," Ye Linglan said and exhaled, "Saying so much is just introducing the background, so in case you don't understand, now let's talk about my brother." He was brought to my house by my dad when he was two years old, and it is said that his real mother was dead at that time, and my dad wanted my mother to raise him, and later I overheard my dad and mother talking. ”
"I stayed with him for four years, I liked him very much, he was very well-behaved and obedient, and he especially liked to be held by me, of course, I could only hold him on the bed at that time, and I sat like that for a long time."
"My mother always taught me to love my younger brother, and I thought we could be together forever, but unfortunately when I was five years old, my brother was picked up by my father, saying that my grandparents planned to take care of the child."
"At that time, my grandparents had just retired and they wanted to bring their grandchildren, but they didn't like me. They don't hate it, because it's also a way to make a living, but they hate my mother very much, because they think that a girl from a serious family has been raised and has a child, and she doesn't know how to love herself. ”
"Since then I haven't seen Xiao Yi again, at that time I was crying all day long, asking my mother to get him back, but my mother couldn't help it, and then I slowly adapted to the days without him, but I have never forgotten him, the last time I received news from him was a year ago, my father said he was dead."
That's right, a year ago, when he was only fifteen years old, and Xiao Yi was fourteen years old, the appearance of the child who had not been seen for many years had long been blurred in his memory, but when he saw the handsome face of the young man on the portrait, he still recognized at a glance that this was the child who called him "brother" all day ten years ago.
"Haven't you been to see him in all these years?" Wen Xingying asked.
"No, my grandmother never let me go to her house with my mother, but I didn't care at the time, because I thought that I could bring my brother to live with me when I had a job in the future, so it didn't matter if I didn't contact me now. What I didn't expect was that he would die when he was fourteen. ”
"My dad said he was sick and died, so I naturally didn't suspect it at the time, but I never thought he would do something enough to send him to ten layers of hell."
"I don't think it's about what he did, it's about who led him to do it, otherwise a 14-year-old boy wouldn't have done it."
"It's very simple, I have broken up with him now, I heard him and Jiang He say with my own ears that he was only with me because of my face, and he let me get the Golden Crane Award because this award was in his eyes, and now he is tired of me and will not come to me again." Ye Linglan said.
And this is also the reason why the real Ye Linglan committed suicide.
Ye Linglan saw Ye Linglan write in his diary with his own eyes, he loves Qiao Yu deeply, so he can tolerate it no matter how many lovers that person has found in the past few years, as long as he is still with him, but now Qiao Yu has decided to kick him away, and he has won the Golden Crane Award again, which is considered to be the completion of the task, and he can only choose to commit suicide when he has no love.
Qiao Yu really never contacted Ye Linglan again as he said, and Ye Linglan's dislike for Qiao Yu is more than that, the reason why Dongsheng chose Ye Linglan back then was because of his appearance, and Jiang He, the director of Dongsheng, also agreed to Qiao Yu's request because of the strength of the confident company, so that the later situation appeared.
Ye Linglan didn't care about telling Wen Xingying these secrets, this may be the only person in the world he could confide in, and he didn't think that Jing Nan would doubt his statement, anyone in this situation may have three ways, one is death, the second is forbearance, and the third is revenge, Ye Linglan chose death, but he chose revenge.
Wen Xingying looked at Ye Linglan steadily, and did not speak for a long time, and the latter had been silently waiting for his answer.
"Okay, I promise you." Wen Xingying finally said.
Three days later, Wen Xingying and Ye Linglan returned to China together, and Charles said to Ye Linglan at Heathrow Airport: "I really deserve to be a Chinese actor, I kidnapped my best secretary when I came to London." ”
Ye Linglan smiled and stretched out her hand to him: "Goodbye, Charles, it's nice to meet you." ”
The two shook hands, and Wen Xingying also said to Charles: "Goodbye, I will come back to see you when I have the chance." ”
Wen Xingying came to the UK with almost no luggage, only a wallet with a photo of Ye Linglan and a portrait, and now that he is gone, he still has only these two things.
So Ye Linglan didn't have much chance to help him carry his luggage, just put his small suitcase and computer on the luggage rack, Wen Xingying had already adjusted the chair and sat down against the cushions, covered with a towel and wanted to sleep.
Ye Linglan sat beside him and said with some hesitation: "Aren't you going to drink something and eat something?" ”
"No need," Wen Xingying didn't even open his eyes, "I'm not hungry." ”
Wen Xingying's problem is that he wants to sleep as soon as he gets on the plane, but he can't sleep yet, and every time he lies down for a while, he starts to eat and drink while asking Ye Linglan to read a novel to him.
Ye Linglan waited for about ten minutes before speaking again: "Wen Xingying, are you asleep?" ”
"Nope." The man replied lightly, "Is there something wrong?" ”
"Well, I want to discuss with you, you should have an agent in your company, right?"
"Yes." Wen Xingying opened his eyes and sat up, several drinks and snacks were already on the table in front of them, and he took a sip of a glass of juice.
"How about you ask him to take someone else, and I'll be your agent?" Ye Linglan looked at him and said.
Wen Xingying's hand to get a small snack paused, and then picked up a piece of osmanthus cake with an expressionless face: "Why?" ”
"Because I have a lot of things I want to discuss with you alone in the future, and it will be a big obstacle to have an agent by my side." Ye Linglan said with a smile.
Wen Xingying glanced at him with some surprise: "My agent is usually not with me, he is only responsible for signing the contract, and he is an assistant to go to the crew with me next to me or something, you should be an assistant for me instead of being an agent, and I can double your salary." ”
"Assistant," Ye Linglan scratched her head, "Isn't it difficult to be an assistant for you?" ”
Well, Ye Linglan admitted that what this person said was very right, in fact, the people who used to be assistants to him were all himself, and at first they were others, but because of this person's extremely picky assistants, he took them away, and only he was pitiful and took care of him all the time.
And this person underestimates him too much, Ye Linglan is also at the level of an actor, a little higher than him, will he look at his double assistant salary?
"It's not difficult," Wen Xingying said calmly, "You also have an assistant, just what a normal assistant should do, but I am a little strict with my assistant." ”
You don't call it strict, you call it nitpicking, okay? Ye Linglan let out a breath and said helplessly, "Okay." ”
He doesn't know if Ye Linglan has an assistant, but there should be, it seems that he should resign them first when he goes back, as for Ye Linglan himself, he must have no assistant, and he is responsible for serving the person in front of him, he can already predict how miserable his life will be in the future.
Ye Linglan, the halfway assistant, started to work from the next second, to find a movie he liked for Wen Xingying to play, to remove walnut cakes he didn't like from the snack plate and fruit bowl, sesame cake, apples, pears, etc., to leave his favorite osmanthus cake, rose cake, chestnut cake, yellow peach and watermelon, to cut the steak into small pieces first, to add a third when there was still a third of his juice left, to help him put the back of the seat flat, put the pillow away, help him lie down slowly, and then cover the quilt on him.
Wen Xingying looked at him lightly: "I didn't expect you to be so skilled as an assistant." ”
"Yes," Ye Linglan said with a smile, "I went to work in a restaurant when I was in school, and I was very popular with guests. ”
The corners of Wen Xingying's lips raised slightly, and then closed his eyes, this Ye Linglan gave him a really different feeling, although he had never interacted, but in his impression, that person should be that kind of cold and cold son, why is it so ...... now Ruffian?
Ye Linglan had been watching him from the side, and only when it was estimated that he was already asleep did she hesitate to reach out and touch his cheek lightly.
They get along in the same way now as they did when they were together before, and they actually like to take care of him like this.
Now Jingnan is really much more mature and stable than before, and even has a depth that does not match his age, but Ye Linglan really doesn't like him like this, she would rather he always be happy and energetic like a child, rather than like now, I have never seen him smile in the past so many days.
Ye Linglan sighed lightly and leaned over to imprint a kiss on Jing Nan's lips.
When the plane arrived at the capital airport, the company and family of the two sent a car to pick them up, Ye Linglan said to Wen Xingying: "You go home first, and I will notify you when I go to the company and have new news." ”
"Okay." Wen Xingying nodded.
"Besides, my personal assistant should be by your side to take care of you, do you want to go to your house tonight?" Ye Linglan blinked.
"Whatever." Wen Xingying said indifferently.
"I'll go, but not now, I'll wait a while, then goodbye, I'll go too."
"Okay."
Wen Xingying got into the car, and Ye Linglan watched him leave before walking to the company's car.
Dongsheng company is located in the center of the city in a very prosperous place, the building looks tall and majestic, the bright shining "Dongsheng" on the wall of the two words look down on the earth, symbolizing the vicissitudes of life, enduring.
This company has been established for decades, just standing outside and looking at it has an extraordinary momentum, Ye Linglan knows that this company is far ahead in the country from agents to makeup styling and media channels, many years ago when he was first admitted to the film school, he once stood at the door of the building and looked up at the roof, thinking that one day he would be very content even if he just walked into this building.
In the following years, this company was the driving force for him to move forward, he studied the script without sleep and food, performed in front of the mirror, compared his own videos with those artists of the older generation, and was praised by more and more teachers.
He always believed that he would definitely pass the company's interview, so after he failed, he stood at the door of the company again and watched for a while, and then ran to a place where no one was there and cried loudly.
He thought he would never get a chance to walk in his life.
Later, he joined the Iphilia company, and the building of that building was very European-style, very trendy and fashionable, but it did not have the momentum of Dongsheng.
In the next two years, he came twice again, and at that time he didn't have that passionate and heartbreaking mood, he became very plain and comfortable, at that time he had already made a name for himself in the entertainment industry, and he was already with Wen Xingying, he felt that whether he could enter this company was not so important for a long time, and everything he wanted to get here could be completed through his own efforts.
Then, it was the award of the Golden Crane Award, he changed from Ye Linglan to Ye Linglan, and knew a lot of secrets, and now standing here again, he surged emotions that he had never seen before.
Ye Linglan, when you first came to work in this company, did you feel extremely proud? Now that I'm here too, I just want to trample it under my feet forever one day.
Ye Linglan smiled lightly and walked in.
Lester's office was on the twelfth floor, and after Ye Linglan entered, the man said in surprise: "Yo, you are finally willing to come back." ”
"Aren't you afraid you'll miss me?" Ye Linglan said and sat down on the sofa.
Lester is Chinese, but grew up in the UK, so Mandarin is not standard than Wen Xingying, he came over with a few folders and sat next to Ye Linglan: "Here you go, look at it, any salary is tens of millions, this year, the key is to see who acts, plus the screenwriter is very important, many of them are adapted from popular novels, ah, I recommend you to play the one on campus, readers have been waiting for that drama for several years." ”
Ye Linglan smiled, his salary in Iphilia is about the same as this, Wen Xingying is worse than him, around eight million, Ye Linglan should have been inferior to him before, but now that he has become an actor, he will naturally improve a little.
He looked at the documents, these movies have ancient style, fantasy and modernity, it seems that the current directors and screenwriters are very good at grasping the taste of teenagers, the ancient style is to find a bunch of small fresh meat, and then a few action scenes, the modern chapter of the business war to find a handsome uncle to play conspiracy, police and gangster films all kinds of fights, not to mention fantasy, some special effects to make some shock, to ensure that the theater is full of blood.
The only one that can be regarded as emotionally moving is the youth campus drama that Lester said, adapted from the sensational youth novel a few years ago, which tells the story of a group of high school students about dreams and love, Ye Linglan can't help but have a feeling that the first movie he acted in with Wen Xingying was this theme.
