Chu Ya sighed slightly: "I don't have enough talent, and the method of practice when I first started learning was not right. Even with such practice, I still don't have the opportunity to play the leading female role on stage. I still play maids, supporting roles, and extras."

She looked at Gu Shi: "So you said we met a little late. If you really saw me learning acting, you would be disappointed because there was nothing good to see. I was really ordinary and common at that time."

At that time, she was scolded by the teacher every day and would just hide in the corner and cry. She was not likable at all.

"I've watched a few plays," Gu Shi said calmly, "I think the protagonist and supporting roles are relative. When you rap the lyrics and it's your part, everyone's eyes are focused on you, then you are already the protagonist."

"When I was watching a play, the old man sat next to me and told me that life is like a play. You finish your performance and it's my turn to perform. There is never an absolute protagonist or supporting role. Sometimes you think you are the protagonist, but in the eyes of others, you are just an insignificant person."

Chu Ya looked at him, her smile slowly faded, and her expression became serious.

Why does it seem that Gu Shi is much more mature than her and can always comfort her?

He looked at Chu Ya and said, "You said you were an ordinary person when you were learning acting. Actually, I am also an ordinary person. We are all playing our own roles. You said you always play minor roles and supporting roles. I would be disappointed if I saw that."

"No, I won't be disappointed. Wherever you appear, my eyes will follow you."

"Even if you play the most insignificant supporting role in the play, you are the undisputed protagonist in my life."

Chuya’s breathing stagnated and her heart seemed to skip a beat.

She looked at her fingers. Was she the protagonist? Did she deserve it?

In an instant, as if crossing time and space, Gu Shi found the inconspicuous little girl who always played the role of a maid in the crowd.

He found her and comforted her: Wherever you are, my eyes will follow you. Even if you are the most inconspicuous supporting role, in my eyes, you are still the well-deserved protagonist.

Before she could react, she couldn't help but hug him.

Her voice was very soft: "Brother Gu Shi, I was wrong. If only... we had known each other earlier."

If the young Gu Shi had met the young Chu Ya, he would have always been there for her and comforted her when she was down.

Would her childhood have been less painful and more joyful?

In the countless lonely nights when the little girl practiced repeatedly, she needed him...

Gu Shi lowered his head and kissed the top of her head.

Chu Ya raised her head and smiled at him while biting her lip.

Only then did he remember that he was in their house and he should be careful about his behavior, so he quickly took a step back.

Gu Shi said casually, "Then are you willing to sing a song for me, a naive person?"

Chu Ya looked at him, what kind of worldly thing had he not seen?

She now realized: the Gu family has a dance hall and an open-air stage, and they would probably invite people to dance and play music, or invite a troupe to perform on the old man's birthday.

Gu Shi himself said that he had watched several plays.

The reason why he said he had never seen the world and that he was a fan of Chu Ya was just to flatter her and praise her.

Gu Shi was worried that Chu Ya would feel inferior because of the difference in family background, so he tried his best to praise her.

He wanted to put the two people on an equal footing.

It’s not about who looks up to whom, or who looks down on whom.

Just like at this moment, Chu Ya was standing in the back garden of their house, but she did not feel the slightest bit awkward or uneasy. Instead, she was very happy to be praised by Gu Shi because Gu Shi said that he admired her.

Even though she knew Gu Shi's purpose, the joy of being praised still made her feel comfortable and at ease.

He has always taken care of her emotions.

Gu Shi said he wanted to hear her sing a song, so why not?

Chu Ya looked at him and smiled faintly: "Okay."

She sang a few lines for her only fan, so what's wrong with that?

Chu Ya looked at the surroundings and said, "We are in a garden. To suit the scene, I will sing the song "Dream Seeking" from The Peony Pavilion."

Gu Shi raised his camera.

Without a round fan, she rolled up her sleeves and placed her thumb on the end of her middle finger.

Chu Ya looked around and the spring scenery made the young ladies in the boudoir feel amorous.

She took two steps toward the flowers, her sleeves half-hiding in front of her face: "If I hadn't come to the garden, how would I know how beautiful the spring is?"

"Isn't this the most exciting spring season?"

"It's the tulip that's hooked on her pink skirt." Chu Ya stopped and the flower branch hooked on her silk skirt.

She looked towards the branches, her eyes filled with a girl's anger and shyness.

She bent slightly and unhooked the flower branch that was caught on her skirt.

Chu Ya stood up and looked at Gu Shi with a smile.

Gu Shi was holding the camera and hadn't come back to his senses yet.

She had finished her performance, but Gu Shi hadn't left yet.

Chu Ya became more and more proud. She thought that her ten years of hard work were not in vain.

Gu Shi stood up. Fortunately, he recorded this part.

The singing voice is charming and soft, with a sweet taste, the figure is elegant and dignified, and the graceful girlish demeanor

It seemed like it was Chu Ya, but it also seemed like it wasn't her.

He seemed to see an ancient noble lady, sneaking into the garden with a longing for love.

Gu Shi watched the replay again: "You still can't play the leading role like this?"

Chu Ya felt a little embarrassed. She did perform quite well this time.

She looked at the surrounding scenery and said, "Your garden is so beautiful, so picturesque. When I stood in the garden, I was unconsciously immersed in the story."

From the moment she entered the garden in the morning, she had been astonished. Looking at the peonies and peonies all over the garden, she couldn't help but be immersed in it.

Moreover, when she sang "the flower branch hooked the line of her skirt" just now, the flower branch happened to hook her skirt. She couldn't relate to him more.

Chu Ya looked at Gu Shi with a little envy and yearning in her eyes.

I envy him for living in such a poetic and picturesque place.

Gu Shi has been understanding her thoughts more and more. She likes this garden so much, why not build a similar one for her in the future.

"Let's go."

Chu Ya nodded and continued to stroll around the garden with him.

-

I walked to the east gate, which was where Gu Shi parked his car this morning.

Gu Shi walked to the back seat and took out a black velvet rectangular box: "I almost forgot, I'll give this to you."

What is this? Chu Ya opened the box with some confusion and was immediately attracted by it.

Twelve different gold hairpins were neatly displayed in the box.

There are lotus leaf hairpins with the design of "lotus leaves in the fields", auspicious cloud hairpins with the design of "auspicious clouds reflecting the sun", green bird hairpins with the design of "green birds in the forest", and pomegranate hairpins with the design of "pomegranate flowers reflecting the pomegranate skirt". The little pomegranates on them are so cute, one by one...

Each one is exquisitely crafted, with every detail visible, and each hairpin is so beautiful.

There are so many hairpins that it’s dizzying to look at.
