(19) The celebration banquet arranged by Cao's father and Cao's mother
When the last person in charge of cleaning in the room had also left, I stepped out of the side stage and sat quietly on the edge of the stage, thinking about what had happened since the teacher called me to the office and asked me to write the script.
I was shallow at the time, and I definitely didn't understand anything from this series of events, I just remembered it. I laugh at the thought of something happy, I get angry at the thought of us arguing over the action and the lines, everything is simple and incredible, and there is no other emotion mixed in at all. It's just a pity that when I think back about this incident many years later, it was labeled "the first success in my life" by me, so I had to say goodbye to the word "simple", but I always felt that it was the most glorious time of my entire school days.
Although later my successes followed.
Maybe it was because I disappeared for too long, which made Fu Chengwen and Cao Yunxiao feel a little weird, and after about half an hour, the two came here together to find me.
Seeing me sitting here completely, Cao Yunxiao exhaled heavily, and then sat down next to me, almost squeezing me off the stage. I frowned, then moved to the side, and said with some disgust:
"It's good for you to be fat, you don't sit in such a big place, you have to come and squeeze me."
"Isn't it good to get close to each other?"
After stripping off the clothes he wore when he was the host, Cao Yunxiao immediately returned to his original appearance, and his mouth was so cheap that he wanted to beat him. So I didn't hesitate to push him aside with one palm and glared at him with even more disgust:
"This is all 'spring river water is as green as blue', you are still pouring spring cold with me, a ghost."
"Hey, look at you, the first half of the sentence is quite like that, why is the second half of the sentence scolding."
"Her little ink is enough for half a sentence of literature and art."
Fu Chengwen walked up to the stage and sat on the other side of me, and took Cao Yunxiao's words expressionlessly, acting very naturally. I was so angry that I almost fell off the stage, but Cao Yunxiao clapped his hands on the side:
"It's still the first in the grade, and the words are different."
"So you two came here to make me angry? Let's go, let's go, stay away from me, I'm annoyed. ”
"We're not that idle, if it weren't for my mother who had to invite the three of us to dinner at night, we wouldn't have bothered to come to you."
Speaking of this, Cao Yunxiao was a little helpless. I originally subconsciously wanted to refuse, but when I saw Cao Yunxiao's expression, I had no choice but to aggrieve my true thoughts and nodded at him.
I used to wonder why the Cao Yunxiao I saw for the first time and the Cao Yunxiao in Cheng Zexin's mouth, and the Cao Yunxiao I know now are not like a person at all. It wasn't until I came into contact with Cao Yunxiao's parents a few times later that I found out why.
Cao Yunxiao's parents piled up too much hope on him, but they didn't give him enough love, except for Cao Yunxiao when he got good grades, the two of them would show up and praise him, and their family would rarely see each other. In order to have more opportunities to get along with his parents, Cao Yunxiao naturally studied harder obediently, and studying hard meant that he automatically gave up the time to play with his friends. Therefore, Cao Yunxiao's childhood was more lonely than that of Fu Chengwen and me, and he had almost no other friends except Cheng Zexin.
Cheng Zexin is the only person who accompanies him, so he naturally treats Cheng Zexin differently, so that in Cheng Zexin's eyes, the process of getting to know Cao Yunxiao and I is very weird. She really couldn't believe that Cao Yunxiao was a person who would take the initiative to provoke and ask me to fight, and at that time, I didn't believe that this person who even had to write a note would dare to take the initiative to provoke me.
When Cao Yunxiao and I confessed, they said that if it weren't for the instigation of the so-called "cousin" he had at the beginning, he might have been a well-funded and humble and polite "upper-class person in society" for the rest of his life, as his parents expected. It wasn't until he got to know Fu Chengwen and I that he found out that there were other ways to get along with his parents, which made him even more envious of us.
Fu Chengwen and I did a lot of psychological work for Cao Yunxiao, so that he could understand his parents and the like more. But sometimes the two of us are weak when we say this, because if this matter is changed to the two of us, maybe Fu Chengwen can adapt better, but I definitely can't adapt to it.
Fortunately, Cao Yunxiao also listened to persuasion, and after being with the two of us for so long, his personality is much more cheerful than before, but I always feel that the direction of his development seems to be a little off the right track. And faintly, when it came to attending a family dinner with his parents, he didn't have the initial expectation and joy, but had some resistance.
I don't see any more problems with his parents, so even though I don't like to go to this kind of party at all, I won't say no.
It's always a good thing to let Cao Yunxiao see his parents more, and besides, the food in his hotel is really better than my mother's.
With such a mood, Fu Chengwen and I followed Cao Yunxiao to his hotel. When we arrived, Cao Yunxiao's parents had already been sitting in the private room waiting for us for a long time, and as soon as they saw us come in, they began to greet us as expected.
This kind of greeting is suitable for shopping malls or officialdom, which makes all three of us feel a little embarrassed, but thankfully, this opening remarks did not take up too much of our time. As soon as I sat down, I began to eat so earnestly that I could hardly distract myself, and everyone else ate slowly, and no one said a word.
The atmosphere seemed to be awkward, and when I felt the embarrassment, I started eating even more. Fu Chengwen and Cao Yunxiao also kept putting vegetables into my rice bowl without finding trouble, until finally when my bowl was about to pile up into a hill, Cao's father suddenly put down the chopsticks in his hand and said to Cao Yunxiao:
"I heard that you did a good job hosting the show today."
If it were normal, Cao Yunxiao would definitely laugh very happily when he heard this compliment. But at this moment, in this situation, the three of us who heard this suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. I immediately put down my chopsticks and looked at Cao's father seriously and worriedly, always feeling that he would say something bad next. Dad Cao glanced at the three of us, and finally his eyes fell on Cao Yunxiao, and said calmly:
"A friend of mine, who is a director, went to see your performance today, and he thinks you have the talent to be an actor, and it just so happens that his crew lacks a young actor, and he wants to ask you if you are interested in following him to film."
