you after the mist

"Sleep?"

"Yeah." Tang Ran leaned against the bed and sat down on the carpet wearily, "Finally fell asleep. If he doesn't sleep, I want to do it."

Jiang Ning chuckled.

Tang Ran turned to look at him, "Are you okay?"

"It's okay." Jiang Ning pinched his neck and tilted his head, "He can drink better than I expected."

"He didn't drink like that before. He has been hanging out in bars for a few years and practiced it." Tang Ran sighed, "I have never seen someone who can make himself so miserable with a crush."

"Okay." Jiang Ning got up and got out of bed, and went to pull Tang Ran, "Don't sit on the floor, the temperature of the air conditioner is turned on low."

Tang Ran didn't move, but pulled Jiang Ning down. Jiang Ning didn't pay attention, and kept his hands on the ground to avoid falling on Tang Ran.

Before he could speak, Tang Ran hugged him tightly the next second, "I'll hug him for a while, I'm so tired."

Jiang Ning gently stroked his shoulder, tilted his head and kissed Tang Ran's neck, and did not move.

After a while, Tang Ran let go of him, "I'm fine."

"Yeah." Jiang Ning pulled him up from the ground, "I'm going to take a shower."

Tang Ran agreed, but did not let go.

Jiang Ning looked at him and raised an eyebrow, "Together?"

"Forget it, I'm not in the mood." Tang Ran also took his bathrobe, "You stay in the bedroom, I'll go outside."

Jiang Ning came out of the shower and saw Tang Ran lying sideways, leaving only a bedside lamp.

He gently lifted the quilt and leaned over, "Tang Ran." Jiang Ning said softly.

"Didn't fall asleep." Tang Ran turned over to face him, "I'm so annoying, I can't fall asleep."

"Would you like to chat for a while?"

Tang Ran didn't speak, only sighed.

"You count it yourself, how many times is this tonight?" Jiang Ning said, "To be honest, do you have a crush on Xu Yunqing or Tao Liyang? It's so uncomfortable."

"I love you secretly." Tang Ran was annoyed.

"I don't need it, you just need to be in love." Jiang Ning went over and patted him on the back, like coaxing a child, "Okay, I can't even make you laugh."

"I can't laugh." Tang Ran sat up suddenly, "Did you see Tao Liyang look like that today, I really..."

"Then you were a little too aggressive today, he just now", Jiang Ning wanted to say that he was broken in love, but felt that it was not right, so he simply skipped here, "You don't seem to be comforting others, you are so angry."

"It's not just angry at him." Tang Ran said in a deep voice, "I was thinking about Xu Yunqing. Sometimes I really don't understand whether he really doesn't know or pretends not to know."

"Is there any difference?" Jiang Ning also sat up, took a pillow and put it behind Tang Ran, "Since he can't respond, that's all he can do. Do you think that if he knows, he should avoid Tao Liyang and not get along with him?" He contacted?"

"I didn't mean that either." Tang Ran replied sullenly.

"I thought the three of you had a good relationship, but now it seems that there is still a difference." Jiang Ning put his arms around his shoulders.

"How could it not be possible?" Tang Ran said, "When I met Tao Liyang, we just..., in short, our condition was not very good. Tao Liyang was similar at that time, and Xu Yunqing just confirmed his relationship with Li Shuang, and he was also very uncomfortable. We It’s probably a sympathy for each other. Although they all gritted their teeth and refused to admit that they were sick, it was just like that. It’s always better to have someone to accompany them, so I got to know each other very quickly. Later, I entered the circle again, and he was always very righteous. , helped me a lot. Tao Liyang and I sometimes have conflicts, but to be honest, he is still very important to me."

"It's different from you, friends are important." He paused for a while, then suddenly realized, and said to Jiang Ning.

"I know, I know. In the past, you two had such a good relationship. I actually feel a little uncomfortable in my heart. But today it's really gone."

"Ok?"

"I felt for a while today that you really wanted to kill him." Jiang Ning laughed, "I really didn't realize that you still have such a violent side."

"Yeah, it's very violent." Tang Ran rolled his eyes, "It's okay to rape you another day."

"Precise." Jiang Ning rubbed his hair with a smile, "You don't usually look like this in front of the media. Don't your fans love to say that you are as gentle as jade?"

"How can you show that you are special if they are all the same?" Tang Ran pouted. "But Tao Liyang is like this, I really can't stand it. He obviously likes Xu Yunqing, so many years, but he has never cut off other people around him. It seems that others can't see it, and they don't know who he is trying to deceive. Xu Yunqing... ..."

"Why did you come back again?"

"Yeah, it's back again." Tang Ran suddenly said, "Have you had any contact with Xu Yunqing?"

"Not much contact." Jiang Ning thought for a while, "He is an artist of Yaoxing, and he has met a few times, not much. He has more contact with Li Shuang."

"Li Shuang?" Tang Ran thought about it for a while, "You seem to have collaborated in a play before?"

"Yeah. She's worked on two films. She's the second female lead and the third female lead." Jiang Ning took a sip of the tea beside the bed, "I feel like a strong girl."

"It's quite strong. She basically has the final say between her and Xu Yunqing. In fact, Xu Yunqing wanted to marry her a long time ago, but Li Shuang didn't want to. The two of them have never made it public. On the one hand, Xu Yunqing's manager disagreed. In fact, Li Shuang seems to disagree. I am pregnant this time, so I got married." Tang Ran yawned, "Pass me your tea, why do I feel a little sleepy?"

"Sleep when you're sleepy, and you plan to chat until dawn?" Jiang Ning pushed him, "It's almost two o'clock, and there will be an announcement tomorrow, go to sleep."

Tang Ran lay down, half of his face was covered by the quilt, "It doesn't seem to be sleepy enough yet."

Jiang Ning turned off the light, "What should I do before going to bed?"

"I come?"

"Okay? I'll pass it to you." Jiang Ning said, but didn't really go to get it. He just pressed the quilt for Tang Ran and patted him on the back gently.

"Nervous." Tang Ran muttered, breathing gradually calmed down, and fell asleep.

Tang Ran woke up very early the next day, but Jiang Ning was still awake.

He drank with Tao Liyang yesterday and chatted with Tang Ran until midnight, but he was still a little tired.

Tang Ran was so angry yesterday that she was not so clear-headed. When she woke up this morning, looking at Jiang Ning's pale blue eyes, she couldn't help but blame herself for a moment.

He leaned over to kiss Jiang Ning's forehead distressedly, and tiptoedly closed the door and went out.

Tang Ran opened the refrigerator and took some tomatoes and a box of eggs.

He cut the tomatoes into small cubes, mixed the egg liquid, and just turned on the range hood when Tao Liyang's voice came from behind him.

"What were you doing so early in the morning?"

"Are you up?" Tang Ran poured the egg liquid into the pot, "There is honey in the refrigerator, please make a glass of water for yourself."

Tao Liyang adjusted the water and stood aside. "Are you making breakfast?"

"Yeah." Tang Ran poured down the tomatoes, "I still have dough at home, so let's forget about making dumplings. Tomato and egg stuffing, is that okay?"

"Are there any other options?"

"No."

"Then what are you asking?" Tao Liyang drank his saliva.

"Pretend to respect the opinions of the guests." Tang Ran turned the pot upside down again, turned it over twice and turned off the fire, "Come here and pack together."

"Is Jiang Ning still sleeping?"

"Should be getting up soon." Tang Ran said calmly, "I still have to thank you. If you didn't get high after drinking and started drinking alone, I guess he would have to postpone the announcement in the afternoon."

"I'm really sorry to cause you trouble." Tao Liyang smiled apologetically.

"Jiang Ning and I don't think you're bothering me." Tang Ran went to get a tray from the cupboard, "I just think it's unnecessary for you to do this. Are you feeling better now?"

Tao Liyang paused before saying, "It will always pass."

Tang Ran gave him a deep look, but didn't answer.

Tao Liyang doesn't do much housework, making dumplings is slow and ugly.

Tang Ran took the dough in front of him, "I'll take care of the rest, the one you made will fall apart in the water."

"This is naked disgust." Tao Liyang washed his hands, leaned against the wall and continued to drink his water.After a while, he suddenly said, "Tang Ran, I actually envy you."

"You can do it too." Tang Ran knew what he was talking about, "Don't be out of tune all day long, settle down, there will always be someone willing to accompany you to live a good life."

"Maybe." Tao Liyang's voice was mixed with expectation and uncertainty.

"That's right." He changed the subject, "I think you should tell Jiang Ning earlier that you want to turn things around behind the scenes."

"Don't change the subject suddenly, you're talking about me again."

"It's not changing the subject." He raised his phone, "Didn't you push some scripts a while ago? One of the reasons given by your studio was that the script didn't feel right. The screenwriter knows me very well, and just sent me He sent a message and asked me to ask him what the problem is."

"I'm not satisfied with the script?" Tang Ran frowned, "Shen Xi just gave me a reason, but I didn't read any of the scripts at all."

"I knew it was like this." Tao Liyang smiled, "Then I'll make up an excuse for him."

"Yeah." Tang Ran took out another tray from the cupboard, "Jiang Ning's here, I'll wait and find a suitable opportunity to tell him."

"Then when do you think it's more appropriate?"

Tang Ran shook his hand, and the tray fell to the ground with a slap.

Jiang Ning came over and bent down to pick it up, "Let's talk about it after the person leaves."

He gave Tang Ran a vicious look, and said in a low voice.

Then he quickly adjusted his facial expression, smiled and looked at Tao Liyang, "Is it better?"

Tao Liyang glanced at Tang Ran with a stiff face, then looked at Jiang Ning, coughed, "It's okay."

"I'm leaving."

"See you."

After breakfast, Tao Liyang left.

Jiang Ning put the bowl into the dishwasher, came out of the kitchen, saw Tang Ran was still sitting at the dining table, walked up to him, knocked on the table, "Speak."

"say what?"

"Do you think I can lose my memory after eating breakfast?" Jiang Ning said word by word.

"There's nothing to say." Tang Ran scratched his hair, "I just don't want to act anymore, it's good to be behind the scenes."

"It's good? Do you need to hide it from me?"

"I'm not full of you. I just want to wait for a suitable opportunity to tell you."

"What kind of opportunity is suitable?" Jiang Ning couldn't help raising the volume, "Is it suitable for me to hear from other people after everything is arranged for you?"

"Why are you so fierce? Your voice is very reasonable." Tang Ran frowned.

"Don't you think you are right?" Jiang Ning was almost laughed out of anger, and did not look at him with a cold face.

Tang Ran didn't know what to do next, so he could only remain silent.

The atmosphere in the living room froze for a while.

"What did the old man tell you?" Jiang Ning said.

"I didn't say either..." Tang Ran responded subconsciously, just halfway through the sentence, he saw Jiang Ning's expression and realized, "You lied to me?"

"I said why the box of tea looks so familiar, he really sent it here." Jiang Ning gritted his back molars, "Leave him alone, let me take care of it."

He took out his mobile phone to call Lin Yi, but Tang Ran held it down, "Listen to me."

Jiang Ning looked at him, and finally threw the phone on the table tiredly, "Say it."

"Uncle did look for me." Tang Ran was a little guilty, "I thought you might not want us to meet, so I didn't tell you. But I really plan to talk to you after a while."

Jiang Ning sneered.

"Don't do this." Tang Ran squeezed his hand, but Jiang Ning shook it lightly, and let him hold it.

"But I had the idea of ​​turning behind the scenes a long time ago." Tang Ran felt relieved, and her tone became calmer, "Both of them are under the spotlight, they are too conspicuous."

"So you decided to quit without even asking for my opinion? Then why didn't I go behind the scenes?"

"Jiang Ning, it's not a sacrifice for me to go behind the scenes." Tang Ran shook his hand, "I don't have anything I particularly like."

Jiang Ning frowned.

"Okay." Tang Ran smiled again, "Except you."

"For me, being an actor is a profession and a means of earning a living. I don't have any passion for acting, and the pursuit of fans is meaningless to me, so it doesn't matter what I do." Tang Ran continued, "But you are different. I can feel that you really like acting and can act well, so there is probably a talent factor in this matter. Don't rush to deny it."

Tang Ran gently pressed Jiang Ning's mouth, "I don't have any feeling for this business, and I don't want to spend more effort on it. But since you like it, then we have nothing to argue about who will turn behind the scenes."

He let go of his hand, "Okay, you can talk."

"You've finished talking, what else do you want me to say?" Jiang Ning smiled wryly, "I sometimes feel that I shouldn't be with you. Ever since we were together, your life has been constantly changing. If I hadn't pulled You might be a lawyer by now, married and with kids."

"You never disrupted my life." Tang Ran shook his hand.

"In the past, I was always in a state of drifting with the crowd. I didn't study law because I liked it, but it was a voluntary choice based on points. After all, my parents didn't care about me. After I met you, I felt that I finally found a goal and did everything. , I hope we can appear in each other's future." He looked at Jiang Ning seriously. "So stop saying you're going to change my life, you're my whole life."
