star distance

The young man in the peaked cap staggered to Qiao Ji's side, crouched down again staggeringly, then stretched out his hand, and touched the surface of the lake cautiously.

"Lin Juan?"

Lin Juan ignored him.

The shattered golden light seemed to attract his attention when his fingers scratched the surface of the water. He repeatedly reached out to touch it, and then quickly pulled it away.

Qiao Ji was a little confused, so he could only continue to ask: "Are you lost? Where's Qi Qing? Where's your brother?"

Lin Juan never answered, just grinning, having fun with himself.

Qiao Ji looked at his smiling face and didn't ask any more questions.

The two squatted there side by side, but farther away than anyone else.Such a sense of distance makes Qiao Ji uncomfortable.

Finally, he said, "Sorry, I scared you last time."

He knew that Lin Juan wouldn't answer him, and he wouldn't care, but when he apologized, something seemed to relax in his heart.

This made him couldn't help laughing: "Actually, I'm very sad today, but I don't know why, it doesn't seem so sad now."

Lin Juan was silent, wondering if he had listened.

Qiao Ji didn't care anymore.He just went on talking to himself: "I thought before that I would eat so much NG only at your place, but I found out today that it was not. I ate NG all day today, but I still failed in the end."

Lin Juan was indifferent to this.

"I even began to doubt whether I could act well in this scene." Qiao Ji smiled self-deprecatingly, and continued, "I used to be very confident, thinking that I learned acting from my mother since I was a child, how can other people's acting skills compare to mine? You were going to replace me at that time, and I only thought it was you targeting me. It turned out not to be."

Qiao Ji stopped, he suddenly hoped that Lin Juan could be like an ordinary person, and smiled back to him, "Of course", but Lin Juan didn't.

He knew it early on, but he still couldn't help being disappointed.

"It's the same for you... You are self-righteous, you think you know everything after reading some information, and you think that you will be able to take good care of you, but in the end it scares you and hurts you. How could you like me like this."

Lin Juan didn't say a word.

Even knowing that Lin Juan could not give any response, Qiao Ji still had the illusion that Lin Juan had acquiesced.

"I don't have the strength, and I can't take good care of you. I am like this..." He repeated in a low voice, as if trying to break free.

Even if he is like this, he still likes this person.

"But... I like you." The unbearable feelings were finally expressed, and the love that had been suppressed so hard was finally exposed in front of her, and she could no longer escape.

Qiao Ji lowered his head resignedly, and repeated over and over again: "I like you... Lin Juan, I like you."

I like you.

No matter how I am, no matter how you are.

"I like you...really..."

However, no matter how many times I repeated, there was no response.

Qiao Ji's voice gradually softened, together with the inaudible choking inside.

——Then I knew that no matter how I taught him, he would never take the initiative to call me in this life.

There is no response, no answer, and this feeling may not be responded to for the rest of my life.

At that time Lin Mo asked him if he knew what this meant.

Now Qiao Ji finally knows.

But even if he knew, he couldn't take back his feelings.

When Lin Juan stretched out his hand, Qiao Ji hadn't even recovered from the despair.

He could only watch as Lin Juan reached out his hand and stuffed a piece of candy with crumpled wrapping paper into his hand.

Then the young man stood up and staggered back along the way he came from.

Qi Qing was waiting on the other side of the lake. He didn't know how long he had been standing, but he was very patient. He waited until Lin Juan walked back, then he nodded to Qiao Ji and took Lin Juan away.

Qiao Ji clenched his fists subconsciously, and the candy in his palm still had the warmth of that person.

***

That night, Qiao Ji held the script like crazy and read it all night.

When he put on makeup the next day, the makeup artist kept complaining about his dark circles.The shooting was still not going well, and in the end Wang Yizhi seemed to give up, and reluctantly picked a passable shot, even if the scene passed.

At the end of the afternoon, Qiao Ji once again asked for leave.

Wang Yizhi slammed the door and left. In the end, it was Yin Nan who came forward to communicate and reluctantly agreed.

"So why do you want to ask for leave? The filming schedule is already behind, and you still have to ask for another week. No wonder Wang Yizhi is angry. I don't think you will have the chance to act in his drama again in the future."

Qiao Ji smiled: "I just want to figure out the script, and if I continue to shoot like this, there will be no good results. Why don't you take time off and concentrate on studying it."

Yin Nan didn't know whether to believe it or not, so he just said "you can figure it out" in the end, and left him alone.

But Qiao Ji really started to figure out the script.

The number of times he went out in a week was pitifully small, and the script had been turned over countless times, and all his lines were carefully picked out, and all kinds of marks that only Qiao Ji could understand were drawn bit by bit.

He has also watched Lin Juan's movies many times. He has watched carefully the unique perspective and the subtext in the actors' expressions.

Every time he could feel that Lin Juan was different from others, and every time he could find something new that surprised him.

Sometimes when he really thinks of that person, he will also feel depressed, and he will feel a kind of despair because he doesn't know why he is working hard.

But he has a candy.As long as there is such a candy, it seems that it can bring endless hope and courage.

Such repeated desperation and hope seem to bring him different insights.He began to look at the story in his hands from a different angle, and began to try to look at his characters in a different way.

Qiao Ji can feel that he seems to have entered a new world, but he doesn't know what this world will bring to him.

All he can do is keep going.

***

A week passed quickly.

Wang Yizhi was the first to notice the change in Qiao Ji.

He didn't know what the young man was doing this week, but the aura revealed by the young man was clearly different from a week ago.

The former arrogance seems to be still there, but it seems to be different from before.

So when Qiao Ji walked up to him on his own initiative, he didn't make a sound

"Director Wang, I'm sorry before, but I still want to ask you to give me another chance."

Wang Yizhi frowned: "What chance?"

"I want to do that scene again."

Wang Yizhi frowned even tighter.The budget of this crew is indeed more abundant than that of most crews, but it will consume a huge amount of manpower, time and cost to reshoot the scenes that have passed.

So he subconsciously rejected the request sent by Qiao: "If you are confident, just shoot the later scenes well. Since the previous ones have been passed, don't waste everyone's time."

"Director Wang!" Qiao Ji did not give up, "I know that scene is very important, and I also know that you were not satisfied at the time, I don't know if I can satisfy you now, but I still want you to give me a chance. One time is enough, whether it works or not, just one time."

The drive and persistence in the eyes of young people have not been seen in such a long time.Wang Yizhi looked at him for a while, and finally nodded: "Just once."

"Thank you Director Wang!"
