There is light in the deep sea

In fact, two days before the premiere of "Low Temperature", Xie Wu took the time to secretly meet with Hans alone, and told him the content of the play and Jiang Xichen's performance ups and downs during the preparation period in detail, hoping to seek a diagnosis, or a An emergency response plan.

Hans listened, and said with a smile, "It's not necessary." The doctor looked at him, waved his big hand, and threw out a reassurance, "Although our young master is terminally ill, he has been cured for a long time and cannot be easily broken. Even if you dare to fall in love, are you still afraid that he will break?"

He also said: "You are his sunshine, not his crutch."

Now, Xie Wu holds Jiang Xichen's hand tightly, trying to use his heat as "sunshine" to warm his coldness.He held him like this until the exit.

Backstage, Jiang Xichen took the initiative to pull out his hand, rubbed his numb fingers, looked over with a smile, and asked, "Why are you so nervous?"

Xie Wu looked at him and remembered what Hans said before he parted ways: "Companionship is a good help, but don't try to interfere with his relationship with you. If he doesn't reveal to you, don't dig or poke."

All right.Xie Wu secretly sighed, suppressing his desire to explore.Looking around the backstage, besides the four actors, there are only two backstage staff here right now. Everyone is busy with their trivial matters, and no one pays attention to them.He had a slightly dangerous idea and immediately executed it.

In front of these people, he took Jiang Xichen into his arms, hugged him very deeply and intimately, cheek to cheek, the warmth melted the slight coolness.But Jiang Xichen was only slightly taken aback, and then quietly stayed in his arms.

After a few moments, they parted before drawing attention.Xie Wu didn't explain anything to this hug, he just held the young man's shoulder with his hands, and said softly: "In the past two days, find time to visit your father and your mother."

Jiang Xichen seemed to know that he had this idea, and he had already made up his mind, nodded and agreed: "I will follow your arrangement this time... But, according to the custom, do the parents of both parties have to meet?"

Hearing this, Xie Wu raised his hand to knock him on the head: "Don't think it's too little! Old Xie has a lot of old feelings, let him see Lin Yi, do you want to see them stage a love triangle at dusk?"

Jiang Xichen stuck out his tongue, a little happiness appeared in his eyes, and dodged Xie Wu's hand: "I'll clean it up, let's go home." After speaking, he really ran to pack his things.

Xie Wu stared at his back, and found that he was not as fragile as he had imagined and prevented—from a little distance, the charming vitality of this young man was very dazzling, just like he was in "Red Sakura". As seen on set.

Maybe Hans is right, he is too sentimental, and thinks too much of his responsibility. In fact, Jiang Xichen doesn't need him to rescue him.In other words, "salvation" cannot be achieved.He always wanted to "cure" Jiang Xichen, but it was just ignorant wishful thinking.Repeating and struggling is Jiang Xichen's normal state. He has lived like this for many years, and he will continue to live like this in the future.

What Xie Wu can do is to accept Jiang Xichen like this, and when he needs warmth and hugs, give him.

Anything else is useless.

The entire performance season will last for three months, and the rehearsals for "Low Temperature" are quite intensive, with one show every week.Every time since then, Xie Wu has held Jiang Xichen's hand tightly to call the curtain.

Because of the presence of Jiang Xichen, the attendance rate and topicality of this play are much higher than usual works.Halfway through the performance season, they were invited by several out-of-town theaters to perform on tour.A theater festival held in an ancient town in the south of the Yangtze River that has risen in China in recent years has also contacted them again and again, hoping that they can participate in the performance unit of the October Theater Festival.

This kind of thing is commonplace for Xie Wu, so naturally there is no problem.But for Jiang Xichen, it was embarrassing.After all, he is still an idol star who carries half of the traffic in the country. He has been playing like this until the second half of the year, and he is not doing his job properly.

"No! Even if you are my boss now, you can't do it!" Chu Wenjin made a clear attitude and offered a new job, "Ye Jin has started to cast a full range of roles. Lanhua's season of performances is over, so you can do it for me." group—and Xie Wu.”

Well, even Xie Wu lost his freedom.

For this, Xie Wu was helpless.Since graduating from school, his files have entered the Lanhua Theater.And after Lanhua got a new director, it became a place where no one cares about people, so that he has been living like a social idler for these years. When has he been restricted by the labor contract?

Now it's all right, I believed in Jiang Xichen's evil, and I was under the labor contract.

As a result, more than half of the invitations for "Low Temperature" were turned down, and those who were not turned down expressed their willingness to accept the arrangement of actor substitutions.This change can only be chosen in a small range, mainly Xu Lun will replace Jiang Xichen's role, and Xie Wu will barely accept the two performances of the drama festival.

On the day of the theater festival performance, Jiang Xichen was busy with a brand event.I am in Shanghai, not far from where the drama festival is held, but I can't go to the first performance.He was really curious in his heart, what would it be like for Xie Wu and another person to play his part, so he scratched his head and rushed to the end of the event without saying hello to anyone, and drove to the ancient town.

However, it was still too late.

The ancient town was overcrowded, and he was not driving slowly, but it took him longer to find a place in the town than on the road.Finally found the right theater, the show is over.He had to carefully dodge the crowd of spectators and try to sneak directly backstage.

"Hi, Jiang Xichen!" Suddenly, someone patted him on the shoulder.

He was taken aback, sighing to himself that he was fully armed with hat, mask and clothes, how could anyone recognize him, while doing some facial expression management, he turned around - standing in front of him was Meng Shanshan, whom he hadn't seen for months!

"Let's go, why are you standing there in a daze? Wait for the fans to recognize you?" Meng Shanshan pulled the hat on his head, then pointed in the direction, "Come with me, you definitely don't know this place like I do!"

The memory of Meng Shanshan still stays in her stubborn and sad appearance a few months ago, but the girl in front of her has recovered her bright smile, and there is no trace of the expression in her brows at that time.She took Jiang Xichen straight to the backstage of the small theater where "Low Temperature" was performed, and when she was almost at the door, she stopped, showing a little hesitation.

"That..." She sniffed, raised her hand to straighten her hair, and asked Jiang Xichen, "Do I look pretty? Am I proud?"

Jiang Xichen pursed his lips, his face full of sincerity: "Very beautiful, very proud."

"That's good!" She took another breath, and then signaled Jiang Xichen to follow her in.

It seems that she came to see this play specially this time.In other words, he came to see Xu Lun specially.She is a person who dares to love and hate, and also a person who knows how to let go of herself.In a few months, I have probably pulled myself out of my sadness.very nice.Jiang Xichen glanced at her quietly, a little envious, envious of her reaching his other shore so simply.

The two of them entered the backstage like this, which was different from the backstage of Lanhua Theatre, and it was very lively.For people like them, the drama festival is a big gathering. Friends who rarely see each other will find such an excuse to get together, especially old classmates like Xie Wu who are all over the world.

When Jiang Xichen found Xie Wu's figure, he was indeed surrounded by a group of people.

He hadn't taken off his makeup and clothes yet, so he just sat casually in a small chair talking and laughing with many people.Among those people, Jiang Xichen knew the faces, and some didn't. They seemed to have a strong relationship with Xie Wu, and every face was full of spirits, shining with the joy and joy of meeting old friends.

Looking at them, Jiang Xichen gave up the idea of ​​looking for Xie Wu in the past, and instead occupied a corner in the small backstage that was convenient for a long-distance view, watching him silently.

Not long after, it seemed that the chat over there had reached a certain high point. Suddenly someone got up and cheered loudly: "Put on, play on!"

Jiang Xichen was wondering why he was making a fuss, when he saw someone in the crowd excitedly opened a portable travel bag, and then fished out a pile of red-toned fabrics from it, which turned out to be costumes.That's not all, after the costume was turned out, there was a gorgeous tiara, and even a drawer-shaped cosmetic box.

The cheers became more and more intense: "Put on, play on, Concubine Yang, Concubine Yang!"

Hearing the sound, Jiang Xichen rang in his head.The heart reacted one step faster than the brain, pounding violently, the body leaned forward involuntarily, the eyes revealed incredible, and contained a hint of secret longing.

He wanted to rush over immediately, but he was afraid that he would not see what he wanted to see after passing, so he hid instead under conflicted emotions.

Amidst the uproar over there, Xie Wu resisted at first, but then he followed the crowd and surrendered his face.A woman among them opened the makeup box deftly, skillfully picked out a row of cosmetics she wanted to use, and greeted those things to Xie Wu's face.In just over ten minutes, Xie Wu's face was painted into another look.

Jiang Xichen was far away, and the angle of hiding was not good, so he couldn't see clearly.They had already pushed Xie Wu into the dressing room, handing in costumes one by one.Every time one was handed in, Jiang Xichen felt his heart tense up, and he was almost lost in the end.

And Xie Wu, finally finished dressing up, opened the curtain of the dressing room, and appeared with a completely different appearance from his own—— Concubine Yang.

The cloud temples are beautiful and the golden steps are shaking, the makeup is on the body, and the drama is also on the body.

The man's eyes were flowing, his body was soft and graceful, and lotuses were growing at every step. He was really smiling back and smiling, and the six palaces of pink and black were colorless.It was the same as what Jiang Xichen saw on the computer video of his stepmother Lin Yi that year.Time seems to have lost its due effect on this person, or on this character.At this moment, from his appearance to his breath-taking charm, this person is not bad at all compared to before.

Xie Wu flicked his long sleeves, twitched the corners of his eyes, and cast his eyes into the distance, suddenly stopped unconsciously, his eyes collided with Jiang Xichen's nervous and peeping eyes.The other party suddenly looked like a frightened rabbit, flustered and embarrassed, almost at a loss.

Hey, this kid is so cowardly, fresh.

Xie Wu came to play and wanted to tease him. When he opened his mouth, he changed the libretto blindly: "The stars on the island are just turning around. See the phoenix trees, and the phoenix trees are approaching early spring again. When the stars rise from the island, the universe is very bright, and the vast sea is like waves. The cold moon falls into the raging waves, it is like the cold moon, falling into the raging waves..."

A short libretto lasted for about three minutes.After Jiang Xichen listened, he raised his hand to touch the corners of his eyes, and it really got wet.But it wasn't because of sadness, it was because of joy.He felt an indescribable happiness and relief. He has lived 27 years, and today he feels the most peaceful in his heart.

There are stars and cold moons in the sky, who suffered a little misfortune and fell into raging waves.But even if the waves lift the vast sea, what is there to be afraid of?Isn't there still Linchun phoenix tree, standing by the raging waves of the vast sea?

That year, Jiang Xichen asked Lin Yi: "My brother, what's his name?"

"Xie Wulin... No, now, it's called Xie Wu."

Jiang Xichen recited it silently twice, and stumbled upon a homonymous English word. He felt amused in his heart, and murmured: "Dare to call this name, can he really save others?"

Lin Yi said, "Maybe, it's really possible?"

yes he can.

End.
