Chasing Tides

Ning Lan removed the plaster three days in advance, just in time for the part of the filming of "Overturning the Country".

The director of this drama is famous for his excellence. Originally, in order to pursue the reality of the picture, the post-production special effects were not allowed to be done. As a result, the sudden earthquake aroused strong dissatisfaction from various fans. If the actors were pulled back to shoot the location, they might be fired. Boom, in desperation, he had to compromise and announce that the remaining shots were either deleted or changed to interior scenes.

Mi Jie was taken care of by Ning Lan during the earthquake, and took the initiative to follow him for a few days, mainly responsible for picking up and arranging meals.After the filming, Ning Lan took the initiative to ask her to settle the fee. She waved her hand and said no, but Ning Lan insisted on giving it, and sent her a red envelope. Mi Jie returned it intact, and finally confessed the truth: "Mr. If you order, you will not be rewarded for no merit."

Ning Lan sent a thank you message to Sui Yi who was recording the second season of "The First Challenge of Love" in W City, and recorded the food expenses for the past few days on the account.

Sui Yi is working at this time.

He only received the notice of being on the show a week ago, and he is still the resident guest of this season. Zhang Fan said that this was won by the company for him. First, it was used as compensation for the gossip. The show needs publicity. "The First Challenge of Love" has a short production cycle while recording and broadcasting. The first episode will be broadcast in half a month. There is no more suitable publicity platform than this.

After all, it is the company's own drama, and this program is not available to anyone. The opportunity is hard-won, so he accepted it without much hesitation.

Sui Yi thought that the guests who had participated in the first season would not participate in the second season. It was only on the day when the program team announced that Ji Zhinan was also among the permanent guests of this season.The contract has already been signed, the air tickets are all booked, and the arrow is ready to go. Sui Yi thinks that Ji Zhinan doesn't remember him anymore. The entertainment industry doesn't look up and look down. It's normal to record a variety show together, so I advise myself to treat it calmly.

On the night of arriving in W City, the program team invited several guests to dinner, and it wasn't until he met Ji Zhinan face to face that he was sure that he had done nothing.Ji Zhinan is already married, and his married partner seems to treat him very well. The smile on his face is much more than before. Sui Yi is more happy for him than disappointed.

His biggest wish in the past was to grow up quickly, become able to be independent, and protect the people he wanted to protect.Now that his mother is gone, Ji Zhinan is living a good life, and he doesn't have so much time and energy to reminisce about the years and never give up.

As a junior, Sui Yi stood up and toasted Ji Zhinan. Seeing him, Ji Zhinan restrained his smile a little, but he didn't embarrass him, and politely said something like "going out to help each other".

Sui Yi put down his wine glass, thinking of finding a suitable time to thank Ji Zhinan for Ning Lan.He was used to being thoughtful, and he didn't even think about what role he would take to replace Ning Lan.

Before dawn the next day, all the guests of the second season of "The First Challenge of Love" were dug out of bed and went to a certain school for the first phase of filming.

Sui Yi didn't expect to be in a group with Ji Zhinan for the first time. Both of them felt a little uncomfortable. Fortunately, in the first half of the game, they collected materials separately to obtain the key to clear the level. Getting the key to open the door and enter the classroom was the beginning of the main event.

More than 20 children sat upright in the classroom, waiting for the two to teach them.

The program did not arrange scripts for the guests in advance, but only briefly talked about the theme of this issue before the filming started.Both Sui Yi and Ji Zhinan thought that what they were going to teach was a cultural class, but they were caught off guard when they saw the piano in front of the classroom and the harmonica in the children's hands.

Ji Zhinan was stunned for a while, then said to Sui Yi: "Aren't you a singer? Come on, I'll help you."

Naturally, Sui Yi would not refuse. He has a foundation in music, and learned how to play the harmonica in 5 minutes according to the book, and taught the children how to play nursery rhymes.Ji Zhinan was not idle either, he took out a triangle iron and a maraca to teach the children to play rhythm, and the music class was very impressive.

Finally, when it came to the canvassing session, the program team was clearly prepared, and they took out a violin from some corner.

Sui Yi got spoilers before the last episode, and knew they would come to this one.It's not that he hasn't struggled before, but in order to protect Ning Lan, he exchanged the violin with his father as a bargaining chip. picked it up easily.

Besides, he was still thinking about his childhood, even if Ji Zhinan had forgotten, he still hoped to play with him once in his heart.

"I need a piano accompanist." After Tuning the piano, Sui Yi turned to Ji Zhinan, "Mr. Ji, can you accompany me?"

Ji Zhinan was a little surprised, but he was under the camera after all, he only hesitated for a moment, then spread out the score and sat upright on the piano bench.

The song for the ensemble is "A Tribute to Love", with a melodious tune, and the melody pours out from the strings and keys slowly. Although they haven't been working together for a long time, the cooperation between the two is still perfect.

Sui Yi's fingers slid slowly on the strings. He hadn't played the piano for a long time, and the calluses on his fingers had long since fallen off, and his fingertips felt a little painful when pressed against the hard strings.

He recalled when he was about eight or nine years old when he first learned this piece. At that time, the teacher disapproved of him playing these simple sketches and strictly asked him to spend more time on etudes so that he could make great progress.

But Sui Yi likes this serenade very much, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the first time he feels the beauty of music through it. It seems that the feelings buried in his heart that are difficult to express can be expressed through notes, which are both tactful and vivid.

He installed a silencer on the piano, practiced secretly on the balcony at night, and then ran to his mother's hospital bed to play it to her. His mother always disapproved of him learning the piano, but she also showed relief after hearing the beautiful and touching melody. smile.

He once wanted to tell his teacher to thank him for his ten years of careful teaching, but he only dared to think about it, but he didn't dare to actually do it.Back then he was afraid that the teacher would scold him for wasting time, but now he has lost the urge to play for someone.

A piece of music was pulled to the second half, and the ensemble that got what it wanted only made Sui Yi feel sad.

At the end, he suddenly thought of those sparkling eyes following him, blinking and blinking as if they could speak, writing joy and attachment on his face without knowing it.

Sui Yi couldn't help but curled her lips into a smile, and this scene was captured by the camera without any errors.

Tomorrow there is still half a day of filming, and Sui Yi only got his phone on the way back, and when he opened it, he saw a message from Ning Lan: [Thank you, Captain, for your hard work these days]

Sui Yi frowned, and the frequency of Ning Lan saying "thank you" to him in the past few days has returned to the period when the two first started this difficult relationship, or even worse.

He chose his words carefully, and was so cautious that he was a little trembling. At that time, Sui Yi didn't think there was any problem with this, but now he saw Ning Lan acting coquettishly and clinging to him, suddenly returning to the way it was before, it was really hard to adapt.

After recording the program the next day, Sui Yi flew back to the capital, and when he arrived at the dormitory, the members of AOW had just returned from the company.

Recently, everyone is preparing for the concert. Although the company has adjusted the time from July to the end of August in order to accommodate the time of student fans, the time is still very tight.

The first concert of their debut is the most serious thing for everyone who has a stage dream. Lu Xiaochuan and Fang Yu respectively rejected a variety show and a drama for this concert. Only Sui Yi is still in the east of AOW. Running around, in a few days there will be an audition for the male lead of a movie.

I was very tired from training today. Gao Ming was paralyzed on the sofa like mud, squinting his eyes and said strangely: "It's better to be the captain. There are many fans. No matter what we do, people will buy it. We can't do it. If you don't sing and dance hard, you will be punished If you say that your business ability is not good, get out of the entertainment circle as soon as possible."

Ning Lan poured water out of the kitchen, and walked straight into the room without paying attention, as if she didn't know that she was being used by Gao Ming again.

Wang Bingyang used to speak for him, but after the "role snatching incident", he stopped speaking. When Fang Yu was not around, he was often attacked by enemies. He obviously didn't want to provoke anyone, but he always became the target of public criticism.

Sui Yi also didn't want to respond to Gao Ming's childish provocation, so she said "I won't hold everyone back" loudly, and then turned and went back to the room.

Ning Lan sat on the bed and applied medicine to herself.The broken skin on the calf has begun to shed scars, and the skin is red and white, which looks a little scary.

He was very careless in applying the medicine, just put on his slippers and walked around in the ground, holding his mobile phone and asking Sui Yi, "What do you want to eat tonight?"

Sui Yi glanced at his swollen ankle, swallowed "I want to eat your cooking", and said instead: "Just light."

Ning Lan clicked on the phone over there, while Sui Yi took out a tube of ointment from his pocket, and fumbled for a long time, wondering how to open the metal seal inside.A small piece of his arm was accidentally scratched during the recording of the show, and the ointment was given by the staff present.

Sui Yi intentionally made the noise louder. Ning Lan lifted his eyes from the phone screen. After seeing the situation clearly, he came over to take the things in his hand, and poked the lid of the ointment against the seal. The ointment came out.

"80.00% of the ointment is opened in this way, do you have common sense in life?" After finishing speaking, Ning Lan realized that her tone was too intimate, and she was about to leave after returning the ointment to him.

Sui Yi hadn't seen him being arrogant towards her for a long time, and she felt so anxious, she stretched her long arms around his waist and hooked him back, but Ning Lan couldn't hold on, and sat down on Sui Yi's lap.

"Will you rub the medicine for me?" Sui Yi asked him.

If this was the case in the past, Ning Lan must have laughed so hard, and then pretended to tickle Sui Yi, and the two of them would roll on the bed after arguing, and dinner would be avoided.

Although Ning Lan's heartbeat was the same as before, she didn't dare to let her true emotions show.

During this period of time, he kept giving himself psychological hints, telling himself not to break the rules and not to be emotional, as if this would really brainwash himself successfully.At least now, he has been able to control himself, stop thinking wildly, and stop interpreting Sui Yi's occasional intimacy as some kind of sweet meaning.

Ning Lan thinks this is very good, haste makes waste, so slowly, she can always separate herself before leaving.

Even though he was thinking this way, Ning Lan still took the ointment and applied it to Sui Yi lightly. While applying it, he lowered his head and blew on the wound. His slender eyelashes trembled with the movement, and he looked extremely obedient.

Sui Yi suddenly felt a little apprehensive. He remembered that Ning Lan said that he was "used" to do this. Who did he develop the habit with?Will you brag about that person like this?How many times have you blown it?

Thinking of this, the hand around Ning Lan's waist involuntarily tightened. Ning Lan raised her head and asked him if it hurt, but Sui Yi's eyes were attracted by his exposed left ear.There used to be two ear studs pinned there, but now there are only two shallow holes hidden in Fenfen's earlobe and pinna.

He couldn't help but raised his hand and touched it.

Ning Lan shivered for a moment, turned her head away, and the blush still spread around the touched earlobe, quickly covering her entire face and neck.

The two of them rolled onto the bed after all. Ning Lan was always active in this kind of thing, and this time was no exception. She lay under Sui Yi and hurriedly peeled off his clothes, even tearing a button in her haste.

Sui Yi looked at him condescendingly, his eyes were about to overflow with desire, and teased him, "How do you plan to compensate me? Huh?"

Ning Lan paused, retracted her hands, looked around at the shirt on his body, and asked in a low voice, "How much is this dress?"

Sui Yi annoyed him the most about mentioning money, as if he devoted himself to himself and pleased himself only for money.

This made him feel very uncomfortable.

He bent down and bit Ning Lan's nonsense mouth, sucked and licked fiercely, so that Ning Lan could only let out a soft hum, and could not say a word that made him unhappy.

On the day Sui Yi went to audition for the film "Night Play", Ning Lan went to the hospital alone for a review.

The doctor saw the film and said, "I'm recovering well, but I still can't do strenuous exercise. I need to rest well."

Ning Lan responded, but didn't take it to heart.There will be more than a month until the concert, and he feels that the current training intensity is not enough.

After leaving the hospital, Ning Lan turned a corner, walked into the pharmacy, and asked the teller if they had sleeping pills for sale.

The ones that Mi Jie bought for him before have been eaten, and he still can't sleep well after returning from the mountain. Sometimes he can watch the morning light leaking in through the cracks in the curtains from the dark, and there are sharp ringing in his ears from time to time. It was as if something pierced through the eardrum, pierced into his head, and stirred unscrupulously inside.

This symptom will somehow get better when he sleeps in Sui Yi's arms, but Sui Yi has to train and shoot variety shows recently, and counts the time for sleeping by counting seconds. Ning Lan doesn't want to affect his little rest time.

Ning Lan guessed that she might need to hug something to sleep, put all the dolls given by fans on the bed, and hugged her to sleep every night, but the symptoms did not ease.

The doctor at the pharmacy was very responsible. He asked him why he suffered from insomnia and how long it had been. He advised him not to take medicine indiscriminately, but to go to the hospital to make an appointment to see if he has any other problems.

Ning Lan had a strong sense of self-protection, so he didn't say anything. The doctor had no choice but to prescribe him a bottle of chlormezalone, emphasizing that one tablet a day should not be taken in excess.

In less than half a month, Ning Lan increased to two tablets a day.

On this day, Sui Yi left the capital again to record a show, and Ning Lan took medicine and lay on the bed after returning from training.He felt that he had been lying down for a long time, and when he opened his eyes, he found that only an hour and a half had passed.

He remembered that the doctor said that if you can't fall asleep, don't force yourself to sleep, you can get out of bed and move around, watch TV, and relax.

So he turned on his phone and swiped Weibo, and with a swipe of his finger, he saw the preview of the first issue of the second season of "The First Challenge of Love".The long-term lack of sleep made his brain react slowly. He read the beginning before realizing that this was the one that Sui Yi participated in, so he perked up and looked down.

The teaser video is 3 minutes in total, and Sui Yi takes at least half of the shots.

There is another person who takes this minute and a half of the shot with him.

The program team cut in many clips of the two of them going through various challenges together, and finally gave half a minute to play the ensemble of the two.

The camera revolves around them at 360 degrees, the sunlight outside shines on the two of them through the glass, one plays the piano and the other plays the piano, each frame is a quiet and sweet picture.

Ning Lan finally saw Sui Yi playing the piano up close, and it sounded and looked as good as he had imagined. The slightly curved lips and watery eyes all revealed his joy.

Can you be unhappy to be on the same stage with your sweetheart?

Ning Lan inhaled deeply through her nose, and then exhaled slowly through her mouth. After doing a few abdominal breaths, the palpitations were relieved.

He thought he hid it so well that he almost believed it, believed that he didn't mind at all, and believed that he could turn over the story calmly.

Every sleepless night, he actually didn't think about anything, his mind went blank, as if he covered up the pain and humble and stubborn nature that he couldn't ask for with a blank sheet of paper.

But that piece of paper is so fragile, it can be torn if poked, just like now, he is in a state of confusion and worry, thinking about what Sui Yi is doing now, and wondering what to do if he waits or can't sleep?

He had to do something to relieve this manic depression.

He found a topic in the comments. It turned out that Sui Yi and Ji Zhinan already had a CP. The topic was very lively. With just such a little material, talented fans have already cut a lot of videos, one of which is called "Perfect Match" They are very beautiful, and the slow motion is so beautiful that anyone who sees them will feel that they are a match made in heaven.

Ning Lan read it several times and shared the link in Ji Zhinan's private message.Such a good thing cannot be appreciated by him alone.

After doing all this, he still felt that it was not enough, so he took out his piano bow from the back of the cabinet, rummaged through the pen holder on the table for a long time, found an art knife, and carved a few words on the root of the bow.

The bow was thin and round, and he carved it with difficulty. He accidentally cut off a few horse hairs and cut his own hand.

He stared blankly at the bright red spread on his fingers, forgetting what to engrave next word.

Therefore, before saying that you can’t play the violin, you will definitely not play the violin, it’s all false, as long as the person in front of you is the one in his heart, where there is no need to do everything possible to beg, he will walk over by himself and pick it up willingly.

Only with the willingness from the heart can we play such a beautiful tune.

The melody of "A Greetings from Love" echoed in Ning Lan's ears, endlessly.

He put away the bow, lay back on the bed, stuffed five or six small dolls into his arms, hugged them tightly, and then slowly shrunk himself into a ball with his knees close to his chest.
