Song: Rainy-Days-And-Mondays Singer: Carpenters

Play:

Talking to myself, I feel old

Sometimes I really want to give up

Nothing is right

Wandering around

There is nothing to do but frown

Rainy days and Mondays always make me low

......

At about 8 o'clock in the morning on Monday, Ye Wei received a call from London in the backyard of his home, oh oh uh-huh, when he put down the mobile phone, he couldn't help kicking the football at his feet, and the football slammed into the fence in the distance. He took a deep breath and stood still for a long time.

If the appeal is not passed, no matter how strictly you control your diet, work and rest, and no matter how hard you train, you will not be able to play.

The end of the story has been set, and he is still at the turning point in the first act.

There was no one at home, my mother sent Duoduo to school, my father went to the clinic, Ye Wei went back to the living room sofa and sat in a daze for a while, then got up and walked again. The blank greeting that I haven't seen for a long time is saying hello, maybe it's never gone away. And then, what is the second act? To go back or not to go back to Manchester, what to do when you go back, what to do if you don't go back?

He texted Lily and drove outside the main entrance of Harvard-Westlake High School, where the car was parked in a makeshift parking space on the side of the road. He didn't go in, though the doorman recognized him, and he wandered on the little lawn by the door. The school is quiet, and the first class hour has started at 8 o'clock, and few people will schedule this school hour as X time, except for those who want to sleep in.

Lily lined up the math, I don't know what excuse she made to sneak out, white shirt and black skirt, elegant posture, but frowned, she already knew. As soon as he saw her, Ye Wei quickly stepped forward and hugged her tightly, and she also hugged him.

"I didn't know what to do. He buried his face in her hair.

"Everything will be fine, definitely. She grabbed his hand and walked to the side door ramp with a bush wall to obscure it," we said over there. ”

Behind the bush wall, Lily saw that there was no one on either end of the slope, so she threw herself into his arms and took the initiative to kiss him, Ye Wei hugged her and kissed her fiercely. Until a black car drove in, it was not the principal's, which teacher should it be, and the two of them avoided to the side and watched the car drive towards the parking lot.

One glance at each other, they all laughed, two bad students, one expelled and one skipping class.

"Jane, I'm much better. ”

"Remember that time. Lily's voice was gentle, her eyes clear as stars, "I couldn't find you everywhere, and I found you later in Creswood Hill Park." Things are no worse now than they were then. Ye Wei nodded, and Lily said again: "I really like this, we will face everything together." ”

Ye Wei recalled that time, and his mood was even more complicated, "Have you noticed that the joy and sadness at that time were so surging, and now it is like the older people get, the more boring they are." ”

"We're not old!" Lily raised an eyebrow, "we're just... It's bigger. You can be 'young' at any time, call Ferguson now and tell him!" she clenched her pink fist.

"Nope. He knew what she was referring to and smiled: "It's different, Manchester United did their best. It was said that it was because of a professor at Staffordshire University, and the old guy was targeting me, but I didn't have his number. Lily was actually very angry, "It's really unfair, seven people decide the fruits of other people's efforts, stupid, rotten." ”

She scolded a few times, pursed her lips, and comforted: "However, whether you want to leave or stay in this matter, I am by your side." Follow your heart, okay?"

"Good. Ye Wei hugged her and kissed her, then pushed her shoulder and asked her to go back to school, "Let's go to class, see you in the evening." ”

"I want to skip school, today. Lily's quipful tone.

"Lily, I want to walk around by myself. Ye Wei shook his head, "With you, how can I have the heart to think? But I have to think about it. ”

Lily couldn't put her mind at ease, but understood that he wanted to sort out his thoughts, "See you in the evening." ”

"See you in the evening. ”

Driving from Harvard-Westlake High School to the company's headquarters in Santa Monica, Ye Wei handled work in the office.

Gave a couple of phone interviews and talked about a phone call, Jon Fairheimer, Harvey Weinstein, Herman Wright. After listening to Wright's words that seemed to dare to complain, he sighed: "I was also surprised, they are indeed the main best picture, I know, but I have always had this will, and they are indeed seizing the opportunity." ”

"If Dong Gu clearly gave up adapting the script to rush the film, regardless of TLB's script ticket, things would probably be different, they just want to try their luck and eat alone......" Wright continues to hold the Weinstein brothers responsible, which is all due to the lack of cooperation, but full of plots.

"Did you know that pair of brothers on the first day?" Ye Wei was really bored.

Wright's words came from the hands-free landline: "Weige, they'll say it's my fault, I just want you to be clear." Ye Wei smiled: "I know very well. Now that things have come to this, what can I do? I can only go to the next awards season, and I will still ask you for public relations, not them. I'll give you this promise, and we'll be fine. I don't want to talk anymore, oh my God, why hasn't science developed telepathy yet? That's it. ”

After pressing the landline to end the call, he looked at a red jersey clay doll on his desk, his heart still messy.

I don't want to stay in Los Angeles, I want to get away from the hustle and bustle for a while, and I don't have anywhere to go. "Go to Carrington and keep up the good work, this is not the end." After a while, he said, "What are you going to do if you can't get on the field, don't waste time, just do something else." ”

It was already noon when he finished his work in the office, Ye Wei left the company and went to the Third Pedestrian Street to wander around, and went to several restaurants and beverage outlets. Several times I was recognized by strangers, took photos, signed autographs, talked about Oscars, and they all said "It's a shame, you should win an Oscar." "It's as if he's become Martin Scorsese.

He also received phone messages from family members, friends, female friends, and Jiya who knew the news, and the words of comfort were always the same. Jennifer said, "I confess to you, I'm not happy and happy now, you've driven me crazy." ”

A text message from Liz: "On the bright side, you don't have the risk of breaking your leg on the court. I admit that I don't know how to comfort others. You have a great pair of legs. ""Juno" started filming in Minneapolis last week, and because of the filming arrangement, she only went to the crew today to meet up.

Shopping around, Ye Wei went to the Pyramid Video Store, I haven't been here for a long time, and today I suddenly want to buy a few old records to comfort myself.

In front of a row of audio and video stands in the old song area of the store, without warning, Ye Wei and Amy met a frontal one, and she smiled in surprise when she saw him, her eyes were very round and her teeth were very white. Although he secretly called God, he was not particularly surprised, and even felt that Amy was deliberately staying here. It's ironic to avoid the whole Oscar and can't avoid wandering.

"When I walk through the door, I have a gut feeling that I'm going to meet you. Amy walked in, dressed in a beige mid-sleeve T-shirt and blue jeans, her long brown hair tied into a high ponytail, and her tall and graceful figure was full of energy, "Intuition let me in, I came in and let intuition come true." If I don't come in, I'll turn around and forget about my instincts. Is there a time when your intuition is not right?"

"You came in, but you didn't meet me. Ye Wei said.

Amy's smile smiled, "Do you think I'll still remember that instinct when I go out with a record like Carpenter?" Ye Wei looked at her empty hands, "It looks like you've found nothing." She laughed and said, "If I go out empty-handed, I think I really met you in my memory, and my instinct is still accurate." ”

"You're optimistic, Emmanuel. Ye Wei didn't know why he was laughing, the last time he chatted with her like this was almost a year ago, he suddenly asked, "Where's your boyfriend?"

"Not a 24 hour appointment. Amy's gaze looked at him wantonly, and it was very natural. Ye Wei looked at her, "I didn't see him yesterday." You saw me, didn't you?" said Amy, "I saw you fleeing like a rabbit." Me and Justin, Justin Siegel, he's so good, we're on the rise, but we're not there yet. He still needs to defeat you in my memory, the last step, you are in danger. ”

Ye Wei laughed, what is the last step, the nine-step law of marriage success? He shook his head slightly and smiled, "I don't care, Amy." ”

"I'm not mistaken, you're a hurtful bastard. ”

"Okay, how's your music album doing?"

Speaking of this, Amy's smile showed satisfaction, "It's not good yet, it's still working hard, and the plan is to come out in October or November this year." Ye Wei felt long: "Still have to wait for 9 months?" Amy replied with a smile: "The plan is like this." Making music is boring and fun, I kind of enjoy it, and I want it to be slower. Because after I made it, I came back to acting in movies, and my agent was talking about a couple of projects. Seeing him thoughtful, she asked, "How are you? How long are you going to play football?"

"I don't know. Ye Wei didn't want to talk about the failure of the labor certification appeal, and he didn't want to speak.

Seeing that he was depressed, Amy thought it was for other reasons, "The profession is very hard, right?" Ye Wei sighed lightly: "Yes, it's very hard." Amy reassured: "Working frantically is fun in itself, and it also makes you crave a little rest after the effort, and when that happens, it will be very comfortable." ”

"Yes......" Ye Wei understood that feeling, but he had other doubts.

"I'm gone, and today is not a gain. Seeing that other customers had noticed them, Amy smiled at him again, "See you next time." ”

Ye Wei nodded silently, turned his head to look at her departing figure, and shouted, "Hey, Amy!" Amy stopped and looked back, her face gentle, "What?" He was about to say something just now, but suddenly forgot what he wanted to say? He shrugged, "It's nothing." ”

After Amy left, Ye Wei stayed in the store for half an hour before leaving, and finally walked out of the video store empty-handed, without finding any paparazzi.

Not wanting to meet Amy again, he left the Third Walk and came to the beach, where he found a quiet place to sit, looking out to sea and listening to the rustling of the waves.

I didn't know how long I was stunned, until the phone rang, and he was surprised when he saw it, Nina called. When was the last time? I don't remember.

"Ahem...... Ye Wei cleared his throat before he smiled and said, "Hey, Nina." ”

"Hey, Weige. Nina's laugh rang out, "Is it convenient to talk on the phone?"

"Okay, I'm sitting on the beach by myself now. He said truthfully, looking around and looking at the clear blue sky.

"It's just—" Nina seemed a little embarrassed, and uneasy. Ye Wei couldn't help asking, "Are you okay?" Nina hurriedly shouted: "Of course! I mean, last night the Oscars were a real pity, and the UK labor certification, I know. ”

He sighed, "It's nothing, it's just the unknown of life." ”

"I just feel that I have experience in terms of setbacks on the playing field, so I want to tell you...... Actually, you told me. Nina said very lightly, as if after thinking about it: "Happiness can't make you great, pain can." Something or something, I always remember, not every sentence is clear, but... In short, don't dwell on the pain, bear it, go beyond it, defeat it. ”

The more she spoke, the quieter she became, "I don't know if it's appropriate to say this, you have a girlfriend, I have a boyfriend, don't get me wrong, but it's just ......" She suddenly sighed, "Forget it, I don't go around in circles, I'm so tired." She then rushed and said, "You cheer me up! Don't wear glasses and look half-dead, I don't like to see you like that. Do you understand, cheer up!"

"I understand. Ye Wei couldn't help but smile, her heart was ignited by her flame, "Thank you, Nina, I promise you, I will cheer up today." ”

"That's... It's okay. Nina didn't finish speaking, but said, "And... Whew, I want to say sorry to you. Ye Wei asked: "Why?"

She muttered, "I've wanted to say it a long time ago, but it seems strange. I relied on you too much when we were dating...... I'm just too dependent on you. I always count on you to give me energy all the time, but I don't give you energy when you're sad... Sometimes it can cause you trouble. Now I feel that it was very unfair to you at that time, I was so immature...... I mean, the pain has matured me a bit. But you also have an unfair side to me, and you flatten it out... Oh, what am I talking nonsense! I have to hang up, goodbye. ”

Before Ye Wei could say anything, his mobile phone beeped, he looked at the sea and sky, and said to himself: "Anyway, it has passed and become a wealth of life." ”

Cheer up today!
