Fake doubles and real actors

In the lens, the rain is pouring.

The tense heartbeat was amplified several times, and the killer in women's clothing raised the slender blade, landed on the throat of the dying man, and slowly cut.

When the blade was cutting, the low and hoarse cello sound sounded, as if what he was enjoying was only the vibrating sound of the strings in his mind, rather than the pleasure of cutting a life with his hands.

Blood flowed like a waterfall, staining his dress red. At this moment, he, who was crazy, finally got a moment of peace.

"Cut!" the assistant director yelled, "It's time to call it a day, everyone has worked hard!"

'Killer' also opened his eyes, and his dark brown eyes quickly became clear and clear. He let go of the props and helped the actor up, showing a gentle and polite smile, "Everyone has worked hard."

At 04:30 in the afternoon, Qi Ming finally finished filming the MV for the new song.

In the MV, he plays two roles, he is a terrible criminal and a righteous detective chasing criminals, fighting madly and rationally. In addition to the mv, he is the main performer of the music, the composer, and the screenwriter of the mv.

After removing makeup, Qi Ming received a call from Gu Debai.

He was tired all day, but for a workaholic, it was a fulfilling day, tired and happy, the nature of which was no less than the joy of forgetting to eat and sleep and playing games.

"Hello." Qi Ming's voice was a little hoarse, and he recovered after clearing his throat.

The assistant next to him, Xiaoqin, brought over an unopened iced drink. He didn't feel too thirsty, and after taking a sip, he found it too sweet and put it down.

"it's me."

A familiar voice came from the other end of the phone, Gu Debai sighed, we have been together for a few months, Qi Ming still speaks so politely,

"Are you done? Did you not drink water all day again?"

"Drinked."

Qi Ming was not ashamed, he only drank that sip a day ago, and he drank it.

"Then I'll come and pick you up, I haven't seen you for a long time."

"Now? Then we'll be in the parking lot later..." Qi Ming reckoned that 10 minutes should be enough for him to change his clothes, pack up his things and go downstairs, and it's also enough for him to come here in vain.

"No, I'll be quick," Gu Debai heard the ding-dong sound of the elevator, "Wait for me."

After putting down the phone, Qi Ming suddenly remembered something, and his face changed.

"Brother Qi? What's the matter?"

"Mr. Gu is coming..." Qi Ming looked at himself in the mirror, his face was a little pale after removing his makeup, his dark circles were faintly revealed, his lips were even more bloodless, and a little dry.

The clothes on his body were even covered in scary 'blood stains', and the dress hadn't been changed yet. With such a match, he didn't look like a perverted murderer, but a ghost.

"Bring me some warm boiled water, and the makeup artist will also call back."

The assistant Xiaoqin hurriedly went to do it, staring dumbfoundedly at Qi Ming pouring half a bottle of warm water in, and then asked the makeup artist to reapply the lipstick to cover the dark circles, and put on nude makeup that straight men can't see, making his face look less pale.

"Brother Qi, you are really..." Xiaoqin hesitated to speak.

"By the way, don't reveal your secrets when the time comes," Qi Ming looked at him through the mirror, his eyes were as serious as when he confessed to work, "I didn't eat and drink properly all day, don't let him know."

"Okay, okay, I understand!" Xiaoqin laughed, feeling like he had eaten a big mouthful of dog food, "I promise not to worry Mr. Gu!"

Worry?

No, he didn't want to avoid Gu Debai's worries, but to show the most qualified and competent side in front of Party A, for example, try to make himself look more like that 'Bai Yueguang' when meeting.

I don't let the assistant talk too much, because I am afraid that it will affect the sense of substitution, and I don't think it is necessary to say so much.

As a substitute lover who has signed a contract with Gu Debai, of course he will do his duty, and he will try his best to imitate what Gu Debai says about that person.

Last time, Gu Debai said, 'that person' knows how to take care of himself, his complexion is very good, he never stays up late to consume his body, and his lips are always moist and elastic.

This time it's too late to take care of it in advance, so I can only replace it with light makeup, it should be... almost.

The phone rang again, and Qi Ming answered it in seconds, but before he could make a sound, he asked, "Which room are you in?"

"The living room is on the downstairs floor of the studio. There is a place to sit if you go there. I'll be right away..."

Just halfway through the conversation, Gu Debai laughed, and his deep and magnetic voice came out from the door and the earphone simultaneously,

"Is that why you don't want to see me sooner?"

"..."

As soon as Qi Ming raised his head, he met Gu Debai who was leaning against the door.

Obviously I can find him, but I still have to ask which room he is in.

Seeing Mr. Gu coming straight, the makeup artist and assistant Xiaoqin all slipped out of the way, very conscious of a light bulb, leaving space for the couple who were in the period of passion.

Sure enough, the lipstick and cosmetics on the table exposed Qi Ming, and Gu Debai was not a straight man to lie to. He raised his finger, pinched Qi Ming's chin and wiped his lower lip, and put the light powder on his lips. Lipstick rubbed off.

"You really didn't take good care of yourself." Gu Debai looked down at him, the two of them stood and sat one by one, with a subtle sense of oppression,

"Couldn't the complexion be made up too? Treat me like a boss, huh?"

Qi Ming looked at him inexplicably, and then looked at the other people who hid far away to reduce their sense of existence, wondering in his heart, isn't the double just doing this kind of superficial identity?

Ah, by the way, Gu Debai is trying to play his boyfriend, this is also the content of their love contract.He acted as a stand-in in private, and Gu Debai played his boyfriend well in front of others.

"You don't have to work so hard, they are far away and can't hear us clearly."

Gu Debai: "..."

He curled his lips, straightened up, and glanced at Xiaoqin and the makeup artist hiding at the other end of the room with a slightly dissatisfied gaze.

Thanks to the timely retreat of these two people, Gu Debai couldn't justifiably care about others, so he got tired of it by the way.

Xiaoqin & makeup artist:? ? ?

What's going on, Brother Qi's boyfriend seems a little upset.

Xiaoqin tugged at the sleeve of the makeup artist, and muttered in a low voice, "Let's leave quickly! Don't you have another room next door? You're mad at Mr. Gu!"

The make-up artist nodded, slipped away from the back door with Xiaoqin, and closed the door thoughtfully.

Gu Debai: ...?

well.

Gu Debai took a long breath, and with a false smile, he leaned against the table and chatted with Qi Ming, "You employee..."

"I know how to look at the atmosphere, and I'm still very clever, right." Qi Ming added the second half of the sentence, with a little teacher-like pride, "Give them red envelopes later."

"Ha, ha, um." Gu Debai nodded, gritted his teeth in response, "Too clever."

After Qi Ming finished distributing the red envelopes, he got up to change his clothes, and by the way, dried the hair that the makeup artist helped dry-clean.

By the way, I applied the lip balm again.

It was only then that Gu Debai noticed that what Qi Ming was wearing was the skirt of the murderer in the MV trailer.

Just looking at the promotional animation on the blog and comparing it with the person in front of me, it is completely impossible to tell that it is the same person, even if the clothes are the same, the feeling is too different.

He read it several times, and waited for Qi Ming to come out in a casual white shirt before pressing forward and exiting the blog.

A message prompt popped up from above, from Dr. Li.

Qi Ming's personal psychiatrist.

"Where is the car parked?" Qi Ming asked him when he approached, and also picked up his mobile phone.

He also has a driver's license, but he was unlucky and couldn't get a number.

"Underground 2, Area C." Gu Debai reported the coordinates, and when he looked up, he seemed to have something to say.

Qi Ming immediately guessed something, "Charlie asked you again?"

"Well." Dr. Li's full name is Charlie Li.Ever since the two had a declared relationship as a couple, they became friends with Gu Debai and asked about Qi Ming's situation regularly.

In the love contract between the two, the so-called helping Qi Ming pretend to be her boyfriend was mainly in front of the doctor.Before meeting Gu Debai, Qi Ming was often forced to take vacations by Charlie Li several times due to overwork and mental stress, and was forbidden to work.

It's just that until now, Gu Debai didn't quite understand what's wrong with Qi Ming. If he had to say it, he was too workaholic.

Not letting Qi Ming go to work is more uncomfortable than killing him.

Fortunately, with Gu Debai's help now, Charlie is no longer as strict as before.

Qi Ming frowned, "Well, don't tell me I didn't have a good rest."

Gu Debai wanted to laugh when he heard that, his lips were so pale, yet he was confident.

Qi Ming added, "Just pretend you don't know that I wear makeup."

Otherwise, Charlie would know, and he might be forced to take a vacation again. He didn't want to take a long vacation this time, and one week was already the limit.

Under Qi Ming's earnest instructions, Gu Debai squeezed his phone, but he didn't listen to him, and sent the real situation directly.

Including Qi Ming secretly working overtime, his complexion is actually very bad, his lips are pale, and he was found trying to cover up with makeup, in order to cover up things like not drying his hair and not being afraid of catching a cold.

Including Qi Ming did all this because he learned that he drove over.

"Gu Debai, you—"

Qi Ming saw it, frowned and almost got angry, but the next second, he saw Dr. Li sending a laughing emoji.

Charlie Li: 【This dog food is sweet enough!I am so relieved! 】

Qi Ming:?

"If you say you are too good, it will be seen that our partner cheated him. Now it is more natural," Gu Debai explained in a low voice, as if to whisper, he leaned into his ear, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up some smiles,

"You like me, you care about me, you are afraid that I will worry about your body, and you also hope that I can see your best side, which is normal."

Qi Ming was stunned for a moment, then remembered what Xiaoqin said before, and understood.

Yes, if Charlie misunderstood like Xiaoqin, there would be no problem.

There was a warm breath in his ears, Qi Ming felt a little itchy, turned his head to look over, there was some mist in his eyes that he didn't notice,

"Gu Debai, you speak like a hypnotist in a movie."

The elevator door opened.

Qi Ming said that Gu Debai was in a daze, so he went out first, felt the vibration in his pocket, and took out his phone to look.

I didn't see any news clearly, but I first saw the date and time on the screen saver, August [-]th.

His footsteps stopped suddenly.

"Qi Ming? What's wrong?"

Qi Ming put down the phone, his eyes were a bit complicated, he hesitated to speak, "You..."

Gu Debai: "?"

Qi Ming: "Aren't you going to visit the grave today?"

Gu Debai: "Tomb?"

Qi Ming's gaze became confused and subtle, "'His' tomb."

The Bai Yueguang who died young but lived forever in my heart.

Then he stayed in front of the tomb all day, without eating or drinking, sweeping the tomb, burning paper, and crying, in mourning for the lost love—this was all said by Gu Debai himself.

Gu Debai didn't change his face: "...Oh, the festival day, it was today before, but it's not now."

Qi Ming: "...why?"

Gu Debai: "Because he celebrates the lunar calendar."

Qi Ming: "???"
