"Yes... I have already received the person, it's all right... Please take leave and let him live in the capital for a while before going back." After hanging up the phone, Guan Shan reached out and stroked Xia Zhi who was lying on his side on his lap. "Still angry?"

Xia Zhi buried her head between Guan Shan's knees, gritted her teeth and stomped hard on the bottom of the carriage twice. "I'm not going to shoot anymore!" As Xia Zhi's assistant, Xiao Jian naturally couldn't control Xia Zhi.Therefore, when Xia Zhi left the set, he had already boarded the flight to the capital.Fortunately, Tang Chi, who got the news, notified Guan Shan immediately, and then successfully intercepted Xia Zhi at the Beijing Airport.

Guan Shan almost didn't laugh out loud, and quickly stroked his back to comfort him: "Okay, okay, I won't shoot if you don't shoot! Stay with Brother Shan in the capital for a while, and Brother Shan will take you around."

"Really?" Xia Zhi straightened up immediately after hearing the words, looking at Guan Shan with sparkling eyes.

This kind of joyful look is enough to make Guan Shan die, let alone just rest for a while?Guan Shan didn't answer, just smiled and reached out to ruffle Xia Zhi's hair.

Seeing this, Xia Zhi happily sat back beside Guan Shan and began to complain about Zhou Diwen. "Brother Shan, you don't know, that Zhou Diwen is a crazy person on the set! I filmed for two days, and he didn't even say a word of his lines, and he was always stuck! What a ghost?!"

"Okay, okay..." Guan Shan smiled, pulled Xia Zhi's wrist and pushed him back to his knee. "You should be tired after flying for so long. Let's not talk about work today, go to sleep."

It was already afternoon when Xia Zhi left the set, and it was already dark when he flew to the capital to meet Guan Shan.After hearing Guan Shan's reminder, Xia Zhi suddenly felt a little tired.He closed his eyes immediately, breathed slowly, and finally murmured: "Brother Shan, I miss you so much..."

Guan Shan lightly caressed the palm of Xia Zhi's vest, and after a long time, he let out a long sigh.

Until he hugged Xia Zhi to bed, Guan Shanfang took the time to read the script of "Feng Yue" carefully again.Then, he called Tang Chi directly: "I read the script carefully again, this is my fault...Xu Feng's role is not suitable for Xia Zhi, please change."

Tang Chi on the other end of the phone yelled when he heard this: "Old Guan, it was just an argument with Zhou Diwen, no need..."

"It's a problem with the script," Guan Shan interrupted Tang Chi, "Xu Feng's character design is too complicated, and Xia Zhi may not be able to do it."

"Xia Zhi was chosen precisely because of the complexity. He needs to improve. Isn't that what you originally meant?" Tang Chi responded naturally, "Old Guan, retreat after a setback? ... This is not like you!"

Guan Shan took a deep breath, and said slowly: "All along, Xia Zhi's performances have been biased towards experience. But Xu Feng's role needs multiple interpretations, that is to say..."

"That is to say, he needs to be proficient in performing methods, and only in this way can he win the domestic art award." Tang Chi quickly interrupted Guan Shan, "Old Guan, you should know very well that if Xia Zhi future If his development path remains the same, he can't just take on characters that overlap with his own personality forever.... Laoguan, don't always keep children in the greenhouse! Even precious flower seeds have to weather the wind and rain to thrive! "The last two sentences made Tang Chi feel heartbroken.

Guan Shan was somewhat persuaded, and weakly defended himself and Xia Zhi. "I know he needs to break through himself, but...I really have never seen him reject a script so much..."

"One low EQ meets another low EQ, he just needs to get in touch with Zhou Diwen again." Tang Chi complained sharply.After another moment of silence, Tang Chi suddenly added a few sentences in a low voice. "Old Guan, I reminded you earlier. You can either let go completely and give Xia Zhi a chance to grow; or you can simply go back to Jianghai and completely control Xia Zhi's life forever. It's the most stupid thing to do!"

Guan Shan was completely convinced, and he replied firmly: "You are right!" and hung up the phone.

At noon the next day, Xia Zhi met Guan Shan's blind date and rumored girlfriend—Ye Can.At that time, the three were cutting steaks in a restaurant in the capital.

"The head chef here is MOF. He only studied in China for a year to learn Chinese cuisine, and he should return to China next month." Guan Hai, who is also a local snake in the capital, has a lot of business every day. Can he remember to introduce a blind date to his younger brother of the right age? He is like a father.As for eating all over the capital and playing all over the capital, that can only be left to Ye Can's free play.

Xia Zhi stared at the dark red color inside the steak with trepidation, it was medium rare, no blood streaks could be seen when it was cut open, but it still couldn't go into his mouth.Xiazhi and Guanshan are both Chinese cuisines, and they always keep a respectful distance from Western food.Then, he looked up at Guan Shan, who was sitting next to Ye Can, and Guan Shan was stuffing a medium-rare steak into his mouth with a calm expression.He unconsciously frowned his pretty eyebrows, vaguely remembering Guan Shan's unbearable expression when he once complained to him in the United States.The power of love is really great!Xia Zhi couldn't help sighing secretly.

"If you can't eat it, don't eat it. You'll feel bad again later. I've already asked the kitchen to serve some snacks." Xia Zhi was in a daze, but Guan Shan had already reached out and pushed away the plate in front of Xia Zhi.Before Guanshan fell, a piece of Napoleon cake, which was favored by Xia Zhi, was delivered to Xia Zhi.

But Ye Can was a little embarrassed to see the tall and burly Xia Zhi feasting on the half-palm-sized cake. "sorry, I do not know……"

Xia Zhi raised his head in a daze, and before he could speak, Guan Shan patted the back of Ye Can's hand reassuringly. "This is actually Xia Zhi's own problem. It's half cooked. Sometimes it can be eaten and sometimes it can't. No one can tell before it's eaten. That's why I didn't tell you in advance."

Xia Zhi followed suit and nodded: "Brother Shan and I both have Chinese stomachs, it's not about the steak." Xia Zhi didn't know, but as soon as he finished speaking, Guan Shan had silently supported his forehead deep in his heart.

Sure enough, Ye Can looked at Guan Shan with a bright smile in the next second: "So Mr. Guan doesn't like Western food?"

Looking at the slightly stiff corners of Guan Shan's mouth, Xia Zhi suddenly became a little timid, and decisively put down the napkin and announced that he was going to the bathroom.After sitting on the toilet seat in the bathroom for about 10 minutes, Xia Zhi's cell phone rang.

"Come back," Guan Shan sighed helplessly on the other end of the phone, "I'm gone."

Xia Zhi followed Guan Shan out of the restaurant and boarded the car with drooping eyebrows, until Guan Shan drove him to the roast duck restaurant and rolled him a burrito, Xia Zhi finally complained softly: "That Miss Ye's temper It's probably too big..."

Guan Shan raised his hand and knocked on Xia Zhi, and said casually, "Ye Can and I are not in the relationship you think."

"Isn't it?" Xia Zhi almost choked and kept yelling. "Get dumped so soon?!"

Guan Shan knocked Xia Zhi again, and asked in dissatisfaction: "In your eyes, is your Brother Shan so frustrated?" He was silent for a moment before explaining. "Miss Ye and I are just ordinary friends." The blind date was Guan Hai's own decision, but Guan Shan didn't mean to find an innocent woman as a shield.What's more, Ye Canminghui is generous and has a unique vision. Compared with a dangerous relationship, Guan Shan is obviously more inclined to introduce her as a partner.

Unexpectedly, when Xia Zhi heard the words, he looked at Guan Shan with sympathy. "That is to say, that Miss Ye didn't like you from the beginning?"

Guan Shan: That's true, but why is it so ugly?

After eating the roast duck, Guan Shan drove Xia Zhi out of the city again.Xia Zhi raised his wrist to look at his watch, and asked suspiciously, "Brother Shan, aren't you going to work today?" Guan Shan has always been a workaholic, and Xia Zhi has gotten used to it over the years. Definitely going back to the company.

Guan Shan shook his head, and said in a deep voice: "It's okay to miss the company for a day and a half. Brother Shan booked you a ticket back to Jianghai tomorrow, and I will accompany you to Tantuo Temple today, so don't even think about the Forbidden City."

Xia Zhi choked for a moment and didn't speak for a long time.I could only hear Guan Shan continuing to continue in his usual calm and gentle tone:

"You are 23 and have graduated. You should know that your career is the most important thing. Brother Shan has not been with you for the past two years. You have to learn to be independent. If you have any conflicts with your colleagues, you have to find a way to resolve them. You can't just throw your clothes and leave when you are unhappy. Of course, if there is anything that can't be solved, you, Brother Chi, will take care of you, so don't worry. The script of "Feng Yue" is really very good, and it can make a big breakthrough if it is performed well. Xia Zhi, Brother Shan doesn't want you to take it easy Pass up this opportunity."

Guan Shan has said everything, what can Xia Zhi do?As Guan Shan said, he is already 23, and it seems a bit inappropriate to cry endlessly.In the end, he sat downcastly for a while, and could only hold back a resentful sentence: "Brother Shan, you are so cruel..."

Guan Shan supported the steering wheel with one hand, and rubbed Xia Zhi's hair with the other, smiling without speaking.

Because it was not a holiday and the afternoon was approaching, there were not many pilgrims in Tantuo Temple.Xia Zhi swaggered into the Daxiong Hall without even turning up his collar.Guan Shan knelt in front of the Buddha and prayed silently for a long time, and then opened his eyes, but Xia Zhi beside him still had his eyes closed.The half-slanted sunlight shone in through the panes and sprinkled on Xia Zhi's body, outlining a handsome and dusty line.Guan Shan stared at Xia Zhi's translucent pinna almost fascinatedly for a while, and couldn't help blowing on the soft fluff on his pinna. "What are you asking for?"

Xia Zhi shrank his neck anxiously but didn't open his eyes, and only whispered: "I pray to the Lord Buddha to bless my ruthless Shan brother to be successful in the capital, and return to Jianghai early to reunite with his most considerate and kind brother!"

Guan Shan's heart instantly softened into a puddle of clear water. Although he never took the elixir, he was already in deep pain and wanted to send Xia Zhi away.I don't know how long it took, Guan Shanfang tilted his head and smiled, stretched out his hand and picked up Xia Zhi: "Don't be silly! Get up after worshiping!"

Now that you have come to Tantuo Temple, you have to take a look at the "Emperor Tree" and "Peiwang Tree" planted in front of Pilu Pavilion.It was late autumn, but seeing the tall and majestic tree trunks and the golden ground all over the place, it was really magnificent and beautiful.Xia Zhi was holding his mobile phone, taking selfies and taking group photos. He was very busy. When he finally sat down under the tree satisfied, the sun had already slanted westward.I saw his slender fingers flicking on the phone, and suddenly laughed: "Brother Shan, it turns out that these two trees are male trees, and they can't be bred at all! It's really interesting!"

Guan Shan's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously asked, "Interesting?"

"Yeah!" Xia Zhi stared blankly at the mobile phone editing Weibo, and responded casually, "It feels gay!"

"Don't post it!" Seeing that Xia Zhi was going to post the photo online, Guan Shan hastily stopped him with a headache. "Xia Zhi, you were supposed to be filming on the set today! If fans saw your photo and asked why you came to the capital, how would you answer?"

"I'm here to see Brother Shan!" Xia Zhi raised his head and responded as a matter of course, "I have taken down Director Yuan who is [-] times pickier than Zhou Diwen, and Zhou Diwen is a [beep——]! I just haven't seen you for a long time." That’s why Brother Shan misses you so much! Brother Shan, don’t you miss me? You are so cruel!”

Facing Shang Xia Zhi's clear eyes, Guan Shan felt like a lump in his throat for a long time without making a sound.After a while, he suddenly stood up and hugged him tightly from behind Xia Zhi.Guan Shan's arms were so hard that Xia Zhi felt a little uncomfortable being strangled.He struggled uncomfortably, but before he could make a sound, his eyes went dark again.Guan Shan even covered his eyes with his hands, and whispered in his ear: "Don't move! Let Brother Shan hold you for a while, just for a while."

Guan Shan's moist breath floated in Xia Zhi's ear, Xia Zhi couldn't tell what kind of feeling it was, it seemed to be a little itchy, the kind of itching brought up from his heart.But it was a little cold again, as if the chill of late autumn was approaching.But in the end, out of trust in Guan Shan, Xia Zhi still didn't move. He quietly stayed in Guan Shan's arms and murmured in confusion, "Brother Shan?"

The two remained silent for a long time, Guan Shan finally let go of Xia Zhi, said in a low voice, "I'm going to smoke a cigarette," and hurried away.

Xia Zhi turned his head to look at Guan Shan's slightly staggering back, and a feeling emerged clearly in his heart again: something happened, but he didn't know it!

Xia Zhi was wondering when another pair of foreign tourists came to Pilu Pavilion.Both of them are blond, blue-eyed and wrinkled, and they look like a couple.The wife with a gentle smile came forward and said hello to Xia Zhi in blunt Chinese, and then simply and rudely asked to exchange WeChat IDs with Xia Zhi.

Xia Zhi thought they were his fans, and was hesitating how to politely refuse them.The gentlemanly husband explained aloud: "My wife just accidentally took a photo of you, and thought it shouldn't be kept privately, so I sent it to you."

"So that's how it is!" Xia Zhi was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly reported his mobile phone number.Soon, a photo was sent via WeChat.

"He loves you very much and blesses you." After the wife said this, she and her husband waved goodbye to Xia Zhi.

"Uh...thank you?" Xia Zhi didn't understand what that meant to the foreigner at all, so he subconsciously thanked him.After the couple walked away, he bowed his head and clicked on the photo.

The photo captured was exactly the scene when Guan Shan was hugging him just now.Xia Zhi was blindfolded and couldn't see anything, and Guan Shan didn't look at the camera. He lowered his head slightly and stared at Xia Zhi in his arms for a moment.

But his eyes... Since the birth of the world's first film in 1891, two centuries have passed, and no actor has ever been able to replace such eyes.

is love!

Xia Zhi's complexion was pale, and his whole body trembled.

That's love!Not brother to brother, father to son, not even friend to friend.Rather, a man's sincere and selfless... love for another man!

The next moment, Xia Zhi jumped up as if he had been severely whipped, and escaped from Tantuo Temple.

The author has something to say:

Guan Shan: Director!

Director: Heaven and Earth Conscience!I'm doing it for your own good, and I won't let Xia Zhi know, how many more years do you plan to have a bitter love for?

Guan Shan: ...
