alternate performance

Before dawn, someone in the Xu family woke up.

The sun didn't rise so early in the deep winter, and the alley was gray everywhere, and occasionally a shrill wild cat could be heard.

The iron door, which had not been oiled for several years, made harsh noises when it opened and closed. Xu Jinyun jumped out of the threshold with crutches, bent his left leg, and slowly sat down on the steps in front of the door.

Leaning his crutches against the door, Xu Jinyun was just about to take out his lighter to light the cigarette in his mouth, when he suddenly smelled the smell of cigarettes in the morning air.His eyes were not very good, and he squinted for a long time before he realized that someone was leaning against the entrance of the alley, and the flame of the cigarette butt between his fingers was flickering in the dark.

The man was wearing a caramel-colored overcoat, approached, lifted a little hem of his clothes and squatted down in front of him, saying hello: "Uncle, you got up so early."

Xu Jinyun recognized it. This man was the man who stood with Xu Chenhe last night. He peeped through the window, but he didn't know his identity.Ordinarily, it was due to this person that he didn't let those annoying reporters succeed yesterday. Xu Jinyun lit a cigarette, put his head aside and exhaled, with a good attitude: "What's your relationship with my son?"

The other party was getting old, Gu Congran didn't provoke him, but said: "His boss."

"The boss will protect people so tightly?" Xu Jinyun sarcastically said.

Gu Congran was noncommittal, he didn't come here to chat or bicker.He tilted his head over Xu Jinyun's shoulder and looked towards the back room. He took a few glances at the general layout and furnishings of the ground floor, and finally turned his gaze back to the crutches by the door against the wall: "Uncle, your legs and feet are inconvenient. You live in this kind of room and go up and down the stairs. Is it very strenuous?"

Xu Jinyun only thought that the other party cared casually, and replied: "I'm used to it, half of my legs are stepped into the soil, do I still want to buy a new house to make myself happy?"

Just in the middle of his heart, Gu Congran waited here early in the morning, and met Xu Jinyun just to wait for these words.He took out his mobile phone and showed Xu Jinyun a set of photos: "The reporters came here for Xu Chenhe. After what happened last night, they may continue to come to the door to dig for information. I'm afraid they will hurt you The family has caused a lot of impact. In order to compensate for your loss, I bought a new set of real estate for you on behalf of Xu Shenhe, and as long as you agree, you can move in immediately. "

The photo on the mobile phone is a detailed drawing of an apartment-style house. It is located in the center of the city, a brand new house, and there are elevators on the upper and lower floors. What makes Xu Jinyun most excited is that the elementary school where Xu Xiangkui is located is near the apartment.However, he has lived for decades, and he has never seen any deception: "Forget it, I can't afford a house at my age, so go find someone else."

Gu Congran was not annoyed: "I will pay the full price for the house. The real estate certificate can be transferred to your name at any time. You can also keep this house. It is up to you to decide what to use it for. I hope you will think about it for yourself, your wife and daughter." , which choice is the most beneficial.”

Before leaving, Gu Congran was stopped by Xu Jinyun: "Is it worth it to spend so much effort and money just to make up for a stranger?"

Gu Congran returned to the door, reached out and tapped on the pair of crutches, and said: "I am helping Xu Chenhe to do my filial piety for you. He feels ashamed of you. I just hope you don't hate him. He is under a lot of pressure." big."

After chatting, it was broad daylight. Gu Congran wrapped his coat tightly and got into the car. After his body warmed up after blowing the cold wind for a long time, he took out the mobile phone in his pocket and called a friend who was in the real estate business.

Xu Chenhe woke up slowly in the warm air. Before his eyes got used to the light in the room, he raised his hand to touch the mobile phone on the bedside table. He opened Weibo and saw that the trending search that had been hung up all night finally went down. His heart was hanging in his throat. Put it back.

He didn't fall asleep until three o'clock in the morning last night, even though he slept until the winter sun was high, Xu Chenhe still felt his eyes sore.I will attend the grand ceremony in a few days. Although "Jianghua" is not from the idol group, it doesn't mean that you don't need to pay attention to your image. After getting up and washing, Xu Chenhe put on an eye mask, lay on the sofa and connected to Zhu Huiting. Telephone.

"The topic has become less popular," Zhu Huiting said, "but the gossip media probably won't let it go. I'll discuss with the public relations team later, and list out the countermeasures for all the information that Yuji may dig up."

"Do I need to do something?" Xu Chenhe asked.

"No need," Zhu Huiting said bluntly, "you just need to adjust your condition and receive the award."

Xu Chenhe smiled: "It's just a nomination."

After applying the eye mask and going to the restaurant to have breakfast, Xu Chenhe and Gu Congran who were outside the door met their eyes when they opened the door.Gu Congran put down his hand that was about to knock on the door, weighed the plastic bag in his left hand, and asked, "Do you want breakfast?"

The two couldn't remember the last time they had breakfast and talked and laughed face to face without any barriers.The room was stuffy, Xu Chenhe turned down the heating temperature, Gu Congran brought out various kinds of breakfast and uncovered them, broke apart the chopsticks and shared a pair for each person.

Xu Chenhe accidentally touched the back of Gu Congran's hand when he stretched out his hand to reach for the tissue on the opposite side. He asked in amazement, "Did you go outside to drink the wind in the morning? Your hands are so cold."

"I slept in the car last night, do you believe it?" Gu Congran took a sip of porridge, his whole stomach felt warm.When I looked up, I saw the person opposite was full of guilt, and said, "I thought you rented the hotel yourself."

Gu Congran thought to himself that this person really couldn't stand being teased, so he told the truth: "It's rented, and it's two days away from here. I got up early today, I went out to do some errands, and I have to go out in the afternoon."

Xu Chenhe was also busy in the afternoon, and planned to find someone to consult with the real estate agency. As soon as he opened his mouth to discuss with Gu Congran, the other party dispelled his idea: "Forget it, I will solve it for you."

In the afternoon, which is the warmest time in winter, Gu Congran took Xu Chenhe to see a new house that no one had lived in. It was a brand new three-bedroom apartment. The supermarket and the station were just a few steps away from the apartment building, which was very convenient.

Most of the procedures have been completed, Gu Congran has contacted the moving company, and Xu Jinyun can move only when he chooses a good day.

"Don't look at me with that kind of look. You can earn back millions with a snap of your fingers. Money is not a problem." Gu Congran said lightly, "Besides, I'm still the beneficiary."

Xu Chenhe was still planning to take part of the remuneration back to Gu Congran, he was stunned: "Why?"

Gu Congran lied: "I took away the real estate rights of the old house from your father. From now on, whether the house is sold or rented, all the money will belong to me, and I have no loss."

Xu Chenhe has never done business, so he doesn't know how a capitalist like Gu Congran can use an old house to earn back the millions he gave away. Solved: "Thank you anyway."

The return plane landed in Cheng'an City at [-]:[-] p.m. Gu Congran sent Xu Chenhe home first, and stopped downstairs. He locked the car door to prevent people from going out.

The right front of the car is the fountain pool. On nights when there is no rain, the water in the pool is constantly changing and gushing, and the lights of various colors float on the water surface, reminding Xu Chenhe of that rainy night when he stepped in alone to look for the bird that fell into the water. .

A little later in time, it was Gu Congran who tore off the necklace that was given to him, and they didn't even have time to quarrel.

I don't know if Gu Congran has also thought about it, the things that the two of them have deliberately not mentioned these days, in the dark car, it seems that the progress bar of the movie has been pulled back to the past.

"Do you not like me now?" Gu Congran asked, not daring to look into the eyes of the people next to him.

Xu Chenhe turned his head to look at his side face, and the anxiety he had been feeling for several days has finally calmed down: "If liking can disappear so quickly, it's not called liking, it's called 3-minute enthusiasm."

Just as Gu Congran was igniting a gleam of joy in his heart, Xu Chenhe brought out the most difficult rationality for Gu Congran: "But when my liking for you has more scars than sweetness, this heart is killed .”

Gu Congran looked at him suddenly: "No."

"You still want it to survive?" Xu Chenhe said with a smile, "It's too greedy."

He pushed open the car door and patted Gu Congran's arm with the back of his hand: "I have to go up, help me carry my luggage to the trunk."

Xu Chenhe's original intention was to ask the other party to help move the box out of the trunk. His arm was torn on the day of filming the finale scene, and he still can't use it now.But Gu Congran not only helped him move it down, but also sent him upstairs, and finally stopped in front of the 803 door.

"What clothes are left here?" Xu Chenhe pushed two suitcases into the door, "Describe it, I'll look for it."

"No," Gu Congran said, "Just to tell you, I have asked Special Assistant Zhou to prepare the costumes for the grand ceremony, and I will send them to you tomorrow afternoon."

"Success," Xu Chenhe couldn't take it anymore and Gu Congran stared at him affectionately, burying his head in tinkering with his luggage, "I'll set the alarm clock and get up early."

A hand came out from the side, Gu Congran stepped in and held down the suitcase, and then held his chin to force him to look up: "Xu Chenhe, can I heal your wound?"

Compared with the morning, this hand is much warmer now, but Xu Chenhe still flinched back a bit, looking into the deep eyes of the other party.The figure of Gu Congran standing in front of him last night could not be restrained in his mind, and then Gu Congran's displeased expression when he tore off his necklace washed away his expectations.

"I don't know." Xu Chenhe replied.

That night, Gu Congran didn't force himself to stay overnight. He returned to his home, took off his coat and threw it on the sofa, then went to the third floor and pushed open the door of the piano room.Ever since he said those hurtful words to Xu Chenhe, he hasn't come to play the piano for a long time. He was afraid that when he touched the keys, he would think of Xu Chenhe's helpless face when facing the piano in the recording program.

It can be said that he was throwing stones at Xu Chenhe that day, because the other party played a short sentence in the song written by Jiang Hua, which was not even complete.Lifting the lid of the piano, Gu Congran played a section of "Fireworks in the Painting" skillfully. When it came to the brisk part later, he was a little unfamiliar, and even accidentally played a wrong note.

He suddenly found that when he played the piece again, it was difficult for him to recall Jiang Hua's face, that person seemed to be far away from him.

A week before the grand ceremony, the official blog began to warm up, and the fans of all the stars raised topics for their artists. Several popular traffic and popular actors took turns to occupy the list.

Jiang Hua is the sum of the two, plus several hot searches after the circle, and the popularity even tops the list.Xu Chenhe knew that awards still depended on popularity at some level, but the closer the date of the grand ceremony was, the more the nameless uneasiness in his heart expanded infinitely.

This mood continued until the day before the grand ceremony.

Zhou Tezhu booked a plane ticket for Gu Congran and Xu Chenhe to fly to City H in the afternoon. In the morning Xu Chenhe stood in front of the bed and unfurled the clothes he was going to wear at the ceremony, a gradient blue starry sky shirt and a pure black and silver fringed suit jacket, which he liked style.

The mobile phone charging on the bedside table suddenly vibrated rapidly, and at the same time the doorbell rang, Xu Chenhe lost his footsteps, and fell straight onto the bed, his suit jacket was hooked to the ground in the flurry, and half of his footprints were stepped on his sleeves when he got up.

The vibration of the mobile phone and the ringing of the doorbell did not stop, Xu Chenhe's uneasiness was about to overflow his chest, he rushed to the bedside and unplugged the mobile phone, and rushed to the living room while he was connected.

"Xu Chenhe!" Zhu Huiting's eager voice came from the receiver, Xu Chenhe grabbed the doorknob and replied, "I'm here."

"Something went wrong..." Xu Chenhe couldn't hear the words behind, just as he pressed the doorknob, the people outside pulled the door open forcefully, Xu Chenhe almost fell out, but Gu Congran stepped in and held down his shoulder.

The mobile phone slipped to the ground without grasping it firmly, and it happened to land next to Gu Congran's shoes. Xu Chenhe bent down to pick it up in a panic, but was grabbed by the collar by the person in front of him and carried it back.Hitting the shoe cabinet on the back didn't hurt as much as hitting the piano corner last time, but the heart was the same.

He raised his face, the red eyes of Gu Congran made his breathing stagnate.He opened his mouth, but could not make a sound, Gu Congran's fist clenched on his collar was shaking, and the veins on the back of his hand silently announced the anger of his master.

Gu Congran was overwhelmed with emotion, trying to suppress his resentment, loosened the strength on his fist a little, but couldn't restrain his discomfort, his voice became hoarse due to excessive suppression: "Are you Jiang Hua's real brother?"
