Mr. Chu

Shi Peipu, born in an intellectual family, received a complete patriotic education.

His father died when he was eight years old, and his mother and two older sisters took care of him. Shi Peipu was very intelligent since he was a child. He lived on the border of India and could speak fluent French.In fact, he himself was a very good learner, and later obtained a bachelor's degree in literature, which can be said to be very remarkable at the time.

But now that I think about it carefully, everything seems to be a predestined coincidence.Shi Peipu is mysterious and withdrawn, with an innate indifference temperament. His classmates can't understand his heart and find him difficult to approach.He became a qualified Peking Opera actor at the age of 17. His best oriental repertoire role was Zhu Yingtai in "The Butterfly Lovers", and his best western opera role was Qiao Qiaosang in "Madame Butterfly".

Because he is good at foreign languages ​​and has a high talent for acting, he is reused by the organization.No one knows when he was developed into an underground spy. People around him who had acquaintances with him later recalled him, and they could only vaguely remember: "...that was a beautiful child, and he was very good-looking since he was a child."

"His mum liked to dress him in the dresses of his two older sisters, and he didn't seem to resent it."

"He is very indifferent... seems to be thinking about important things all the time, but he is the best actress in our troupe, he can perfectly play a woman without makeup."

"Is he a spy? Impossible, he doesn't like to talk to others, he always lives alone in the alley..."

"We all call him Jade Butterfly, haha, this may have something to do with his masterpiece."

From the records recorded in the data, Gu Yang can vaguely restore a vague shadow in the words of the few people around him.He is very aloof and indifferent, the kind of character that no one thinks is a spy.He is very beautiful in himself, but he became indistinguishable from male and female in the process of learning Peking Opera.His acting talent is very high, probably on par with Gu Yang.

It is really unimaginable that such a beauty like the flower of the kaolin has done the most shameful spy thing and cannot live in the light.

Nor can it be said that it is unimaginable.

Shi Peipu was born as an intellectual, with a high degree of education, and was developed by the organization early. One of his uncles was at the level of the deputy minister of the country at that time, and his parents were both high-level intellectuals.He is very patriotic, which is understandable and normal.However, he is different from those useless scholars who can only sigh. He can do his part for the country, and he has indeed done it.

At least, whether it is Gu Yang or Xu An, those who have inherited the shadow of their predecessors and avoided the wars in the country they guarded have grown up well. They are really not qualified to criticize Shi Peipu's methods. Not glorious enough, it was not long after the founding of the People's Republic of China, and it was still in crisis. Country F's military secrets are enough to prevent the country from a lot of damage and save a lot of people from dying. Perhaps among these people are their elders.

Like most patriots at that time, Shi Peipu did what he should do.After the end, he never married and never returned to China, so he died in Paris.Regarding all his contributions and efforts, the country has not publicized it, nor has it kept people silent.They can only deny Shi Peipu's identity as a spy, give him some titles and financial support, and let him live well in Country F.

As for what this oriental beauty, Beijing Opera Huadan, really thinks, I am afraid that no one really knows.He is so mysterious that Bursico thought he knew him, but he was deceived by him for 18 years, and he didn't even know his true identity.Not to mention the people around him, no one knew he was a spy.

The veil covering his face is really no less than that of Salome.How he thinks in his heart determines how Gu Yang will act.So he wanted to get to know him, to get to know this brilliant Eastern spy.

A performance changed the lives of Shi Peipu and Boursico.

When Shi Peipu was on stage singing the famous opera "Madame Butterfly", he never imagined that there would be a western man who was obsessed with this opera. This white man was obsessed with oriental women. The poignant allure of loving and willingly dying.He also longed for a woman like this who loved him wholeheartedly and died for him.

He thought that Shi Peipu would be that person, but he didn't know that he was the butterfly who fell in love.

Gu Yang took a deep breath and opened his eyes again.

He walked downstairs, Chu Jinye was working in the study.

Seeing him coming in, the man raised his brows in surprise. Gu Yang usually does not take the initiative to come to the study to look for him. This room is very large, with many important things displayed on the bookcase, and the carved wooden desk is full of contracts. and files.When Chu is at home tonight, he will work here.And when he was working, teenagers generally wouldn't bother him.

He put down the file and said softly, "What's wrong? Are you uncomfortable?"

Gu Yang shook his head, walked over, and sat on his lap, his weight was still very light compared to his peers, Chu Jinye could easily pick him up.

"what happened?"

"...I just saw a new script, and to be honest, I'm very sad." The boy said quietly: "That's not a very beautiful story."

Chu Jinye looked down at him and said, "But you... have been acting out not very good stories."

Whether it is Amin in "Nobody Knows", the nightingale in "The Nightingale and the Rose", or Salome in "Salome", they are all obvious tragedies according to common sense, but the despair and sadness of the general trend have created In addition to their own personal charm, Gu Yang's interpretation of each of them is perfect, he should have been used to it long ago.

"...That's different, Mr. Chu."

"Ok?"

"My previous performances... have always been that the character is happy." Gu Yang said, looking at the front with some blank eyes: "No matter what others think or think, compared to themselves, they are happy , died happily, so I, even if I know the ending is bad, I can get some comfort, because I can hear their inner voice, they...they are happy!"

Amin died in illusory happiness, Little Nightingale achieved her ideal, Salome kissed her lover's head, and possessed that man thoroughly, and they left this world in their own hope and bliss.Gu Yang, who was connected with them, could breathe a sigh of relief even though he was grieving.

But Shi Peipu was different.

His ending was relatively good. He lived to be 70 years old, died naturally, and lived in poverty, possessing wealth and status from the worldly perspective.But Gu Yang just felt that he, from the moment he broke with Bursico, from the moment he took off his women's clothes and became known to the world as a man, he had already died.

That feeling, whether it is sincere, whether it exists or not, when it will bloom and bear fruit, and when it will quietly wither, is not well known to the world. Compared with the pain, heart and soul, because you can't accept the truth Shi Peipu, who committed suicide by cutting his throat in prison, was so indifferent and ruthless.It seems that he only has his country in his heart, and there is no room for the slightest personal affection.

The more Gu Yang analyzes him, the more he feels that his character is like a cold black hole that sucks everything in. You have to pay a lot, a lot, to get close to him and not be swallowed by the black hole.

Moreover, the sad thing about Gu Yang is that he saw another aspect of love from Shi Peipu.

He and Chu Jinye are lovers.

They are in love with each other.

Can't even imagine being apart.

Emotions are really complicated.Gu Yang has always been more rational and sober than his peers. He knows that even if two people fall in love, there are various factors and various fates that cause them to separate and fall in love, but they may not be together.

But, but, if he had to separate from Chu Jinye now, what would he do?

Gu Yang looked at the man's handsome and pale face, and thought in his heart, he might be crazy.

"Everyone's fate is different. In troubled times, there is a way to get the best of both worlds." Chu Jinye said, he hadn't thought about the young man's thoughts now: "Maybe you think so, but for people of their age, it's a no the same."

Gu Yang responded, looked at him, and suddenly said: "But Mr. Chu, I will not betray you or deceive you for anyone or anything."

Chu Jinye was stunned for a moment, his eyes softened a little bit, he reached out to caress the boy's cold cheek, and kissed him lightly on the eyes: "—I know."

Before meeting Gu Yang, Chu Jinye had never trusted anyone like this.

He won't betray him, he knows that.

Gu Yang curled up in the arms of the other party, closed his eyes, and thought about many things, about the performance, about that era.Which is right and which is wrong, which is right and which is wrong, he is not the person involved, so he is not qualified to discuss. As a junior, he can only guess and deduce the other party's thoughts.

Profile that one, Lady Butterfly.

A few days later, Gu Yang and Chu went to country F together tonight, an apartment in Paris, which was Shi Peipu's last legacy.

Now, it has become a scenic spot. What happened at that time was extremely sensational in country F. People all ridiculed Bursico, saying that he was really blind, and that he was fooled to such an extent by an oriental man. I wrote a stage play before, and the name of the play I used was Mister Butterfly, which was widely sung at that time.

Gu Yang walked on the fluffy grass and looked at the elegant buildings in front of him. Compared with other scenic spots, there are relatively few tourists here.

The layout of the room is also unexpectedly simple, just a bed, a table, some books on the table, and costumes on the hangers. The private life of a generation of famous actors seems to be so simple.It cannot be compared with the gorgeous drama he sang.

"...He is probably a person who doesn't care much about life." Gu Yang said softly: "It seems to be atonement, and he is harsh on himself."

Can physical torture bring peace of mind?This point, no one really can give an answer.

They walked out of the room in silence, Chu Jinye looked at the blue sky outside, and suddenly said, "Look, that's a butterfly,"

Hearing these words, Gu Yang raised his head and looked in the direction he pointed. Two beautiful butterflies were flying up and down, drawing a beautiful arc in the air.

"There are always more butterflies here than in other places." On the side, an old woman selling newspapers said: "Butterflies also love beauty, don't they? I heard that there was an oriental beauty who slept there. Is it really that beautiful?"

Gu Yang replied almost without thinking: "Yes, he is unique."

The old woman raised her cloudy eyes, looked at the beautiful but unaware young man in front of her, smiled, took a flower from the bouquet at hand, and handed it to him.

"For you and your partner, you are a perfect match."

Chu Jinye took the flowers, thanked her, handed her a banknote, and bought a newspaper.He held Gu Yang's hand and led him outside.

The weather was fine that day, and the sky was clear. They wandered aimlessly through the streets of Paris, walked for a long time, talked about insignificant things, and found a room in that apartment.

Before going to bed, Gu Yang stared at the low ceiling of the room. He didn’t feel it when he turned on the light. Once he fell into darkness, the heavy and absolutely depressing atmosphere surged up, making him breathless. Is it the narrowness of the room, or other reasons that caused this.

At that time, there was no heating in the room, so every night was so cold and dark?

How did Shi Peipu feel when he fell asleep in such an environment?

The teenager closed his eyes silently, and hugged his lover tightly.

A night without dreams.

In the next few days, they went to listen to the stage play and collected some reports at the time.Then after returning to China, Gu Yang went to participate in the training of a professional Peking Opera troupe. Although it is said that the voice actor can do it for the performance, Xu An's harshness and the high requirements of the boy himself do not allow him to do so.

Shi Peipu is a very professional Peking Opera actor, and he can be called a famous actress of a generation.His foundation in Peking Opera is very solid, at least, Gu Yang has to learn the most classic "Blessing Lovers".

The story of Liang Zhu is also familiar in this country. Zhu Yingtai disguised herself as a man and entered the academy to meet Liang Shanbo. After being opposed by her family, Liang Shanbo died of depression. Died in love in the tomb, the two turned into butterflies, lingering among the green leaves and flowers.

Gu Yang stood on the Peking Opera stage for two full months, walking over and over again, waving his hands, and shaking his sleeves.He first sang in a male voice: "Hearing her words, I can only feel the shock of thunder, my eyes are spinning and my soul is broken. In an instant, the deep love was gone, and you mistakenly gave me the jade pendant to tease me infatuated."

She also sang with a female voice: "Love is tender, meaning is boundless, and the rain hits the duckweed, which makes people heartbroken, and people heartbroken."

One man and one woman, one high and one low, his voice has been transformed so skillfully through constant practice that those experts in Beijing opera all nodded their heads.Later, Gu Yang was able to perform on stage, playing the role of Zhu Yingtai, and sang melodiously and sadly, with tears streaming down his face.At that time, there was thunderous applause from the audience, and Xu An also sat below.

After the performance, he walked backstage and asked the teen: "Do you think you're ready?"

This time, Gu Yang did not give an affirmative answer, he still needs some time.

In the few months after that, he learned the singing of country F, combined with the stage art he learned on Broadway, and sang the weeping "Madame Butterfly", and he soon looked decent.It can be said that at that time, he had one of the hardware conditions to play Shi Peipu.

During this long practice, his mind became more and more quiet and peaceful.Through the gorgeous and dazzling costumes, he can touch a part of the heart of the legendary spy, why he only loves "The Butterfly Lovers", and why he can attract Bursico, who is deeply infatuated with "Madame Butterfly".Is he playing like life, or is life like playing?

He probably knew something, and those things seemed to be far away from him, but they were also very close.

One day, he sang "Blessed Lovers" and won applause from all the audience, and the audience burst into tears. The feeling that day was his best performance, and he sang "Madame Butterfly" again. flaw.

On that day, something was bound to happen.

He felt so good, better than ever, that he walked home, changed his clothes, and removed his make-up.Night came through the windows.Gu Yang took off his robe, faced the mirror, and stared at his white jade-like body. His facial features had grown, and he even had a bit of a man's toughness. He was no longer a boy, he had matured.

He is qualified to see a different world.

Gu Yang picked up a cigarette, he never smoked, but Shi Peipu smoked, he lit the cigarette, took a puff, and put it on the sink.

A mysterious, indescribable feeling enveloped him, he knew, it was him.

You came.

You finally came.

Mr. Butterfly, Shi Peipu, visited his body.

After countless nights and days of long waiting and arduous groping, Gu Yang finally saw him, and in the mirror, he saw his appearance.

So beautiful, so indistinguishable.

The gender ambiguity of youth will be preserved in some other ways after the body is fully developed, such as eyes, such as demeanor.

What is the difference between men and women? Are men tough, strong, and powerful?Are women soft, fragile, and vulnerable?No, they have something in common, as long as you grasp that point, you can switch between men and women with ease.

What Shi Peipu chose was love.

A woman's love is a dedicated love, a selfless love, a love that is willing to die for a partner.Her stupidity and irrationality sublimate this feeling, making her almost divinely beautiful.And men's love is passionate love and conditional love, and they must submit to their reason, restraint and forbearance.

As long as you master this love, you can constantly switch between men and women, you can smile, you can cry, you can spread your body unscrupulously, even if you have an obviously masculine figure, you can convince them that you are a woman .

Now, Gu Yang is naked, looking at himself in the mirror, his eyes are soft and innocent at one time, cold and rational at another time.His long hair had already reached his waist when he deliberately kept it, and now, even if he thickened his eyebrows, he still looked like a woman.

That femininity is a kind of demeanor, a kind of temperament.You have to make men believe that you are the kind of woman who can die for love and for them, so that you can control them and use your inner coldness and reason to be independent in the game of love.

You are a spectator with nothing to do, and I am also a showman every time.

Who is more ruthless than whom?

He stretched out his hands and touched his body. His body was slender but muscular. His shoulders became longer and wider, and his abdominal muscles became more obvious.

He is growing into a man.

But to play a woman in disguise.

"Huh..." Gu Yang said softly to the mirror, "You are so beautiful."

The person he was talking to was not himself, but another person in him. The famous actress stared at him indifferently, neither answering nor reacting.But he already understood, he knew his secret.

"You still love him." He said, "You still love him, at that time."

Boursico once asked Shi Peipu if everything was a scam. He was completely deceived. Shi Peipu didn't respond at that time, because he had to ask himself.

What am I thinking?

Am I a good spy?

The professional requirement of a spy is not to have too much emotion for the target, but to always grasp his own sense of proportion and reason. In the past 18 years, he has done a good job, and he has delivered pieces of information for the country, but what?Is there really no emotion at all?Is every love story you really say a lie?

If not, it's sad, if it is, it's even more sad.

Gu Yang swayed his body slightly, he touched every line of his body obsessively, from today onwards, it does not belong to him, but belongs to another beauty, he wakes up in his body, with indifferent eyes looking outside.

He raised his head, looked at the mirror that had been covered with mist, and let out a light breath, a layer of white mist suddenly rose on the mirror.

With his fingers, he slowly wiped out a long mark, which happened to be where the eyes were.

Those eyes, indifferent, sophisticated, detached from the world, and amazingly beautiful.

His eyes are a long story and poem, cold and dark.He's looking at you, and you can't help but get a chill down your spine at that weird twisted beauty that shouldn't exist.But you can't hide, you have to look at him.

Because he is so beautiful.

Gu Yangyang grew his neck, revealing his white and slender body like a swan. His eyes opened and closed, and his lips were slightly parted.

He looked in the mirror again, at those eyes.

The other party watched him silently.

"Very well," he said, "we're together."

"I'm so cold, but I love you."

He moved closer to the mirror and kissed her on the lips.

In the days to come, they will be together for a long time, and they will be integrated into one body, regardless of you and me, and their souls are connected.

He is Mister Butterfly, Mister Butterfly is him, he needs him, embraces him, so he appears.

He is ready.

In the morning, Xu An got up very early. He has a good work and rest schedule and biological clock. Under the supervision of his wife, he drank a glass of milk and ate some bread.Today's schedule has not been arranged yet, he is going to the study to read some books, write some things, and get ready for the upcoming movie.

For the lead actor Gu Yang, Xu An's attention and expectations are very high. He has this patience and waits for the child to get ready slowly without disturbing him too much.Because everyone has their own pace, it is not beautiful to disrupt it forcibly.

He believes in Gu Yang's talent, and he also sees his hard work. This boy does not need too much intervention from the director. He has his own way of understanding and communicating with the characters.And what Xu An had to do was to wait quietly, waiting for him to hand in a perfect answer sheet.

Thinking this way, he walked into the study, and before he sat down for a while, his wife called the internal line at home, saying that a person named Gu Yang had come to see him.

He got up immediately, put the half-read manuscript aside, and hurried out.

When he reached the hall, he paused.

There is a person leaning on the aisle.

Half of his face was covered in darkness, and he had a graceful figure, wearing a tight cheongsam.Holding a cigarette in his hand, lit a spark.

Xu An held his breath, and his heart beat crazily faster.

The other party found him, took his hand slowly, turned his face away from the darkness, looked over, his eyes were illuminated clearly, what kind of eyes are those.The whites of the eyes are so white, the eyeballs are so black, they are cold and emotionless, like a piece of thin ice, like a black hole, reflecting everything and devouring them.

He walked over and walked out of the darkness, revealing his whole body. His expression was very indifferent, which can be said to be very unpleasant.But it didn't matter--it didn't matter at all.

He stood there, neck, arms, shoulders, every part of his body, together with the vague fragrance, constituted a whole of him.His expression is silent, his lips are lightly pursed, and his long hair hangs fluffy around his waist, like the greatest miracle of the Creator. When you look at him, you will be filled with awe and longing.You forget his gender, age, and nationality.

He was a beauty, an androgynous legend.

Xu An looked at him for a long time, so long that he almost shed tears, he thought, I finally waited for this day.

It's today.

"Mr. Butterfly" officially started filming.

The author has something to say: You are a spectator with nothing to do, and I am also a showman whenever I am present.I saw this sentence when I checked the information, and it is also very sad.The contradiction between the righteousness of the family and the country and personal feelings is really painful.

Shi Peipu is that kind of special, unspeakable existence, he is really beautiful and sober.The country he loves has not let him down. We are getting stronger and stronger. This is all based on the contributions of those predecessors. It is they who have taken on the darkness, and we can now live in the light.

But Yang Yang and Mr. Chu don’t have to face such a cruel choice, they will always love each other and give out dog food every day~
