Chapter 41: Hide and Seek
Zhu Lian really knew very early on that in the Acemon team, he was the only member who became an idol purely for his dreams.
Although other people also like stage performances, they are more or less mixed with other desires.Ji Yunting learned to dance in the past because he wanted to be praised as handsome by the girl he had a crush on; Koty has been a playboy since he was a child, and he entered the circle with a playful attitude; Fu Rong's goal is the simplest, to make a lot of money; He has already left.
As for the love affair, rather than saying that he yearns for the stage, it is better to say that he is suitable for this profession.Zhu Lianzhen has always hated those clichés that say that idols are "born to be on stage", but they have to admit that love is well deserved.
When Tanqing first joined the company, he knew very little about Hip-Hop culture. The reason for his debut obviously had nothing to do with his ambition, but it occupied a very important resource. Therefore, Zhu Lianzhen often saw him as a half-hearted person.However, Tanqing is particularly good at acting. Controlling the emotions of the audience is his innate talent. Just a few small movements in front of the camera can fascinate people. Over time, Zhu Lian really ignored his own attitude.
Because in front of work, it doesn't matter whether you like it or not.Most people in the world have been doing things they don't like so much since they were born, honing skills that they are not interested in, and devoting themselves to industries that suit them.Although the "idol" is glamorous enough, under this identity, there will always be some idols who don't like it—or in other words, the original liking has been wiped out by reality.
It's just that Tanqing is at the top of the mainland idol circle, he is highly self-disciplined, omnipotent, and admired by others... If one day everyone knows that he regards this superior career as a "wrong choice", absolutely everyone will be surprised.
Of course, this is just Zhu Lianzhen's unilateral conjecture.Compared with the unknown answer, he is more curious about what a person like love is most yearning for.
……
Two days after he recovered from his illness, he went back to the filming crew for high-intensity filming. As long as conditions permit, his time is full every day.Before the end of this month, he successfully wrapped up.The efficiency is so high and the acting skills are guaranteed, the director is full of praise.
At the same time, the trailer for the first episode of Tuan Zong officially appeared on the homepage of Station V, and the program aroused widespread discussion before it was broadcast.Because the style of the trailer is completely opposite to that of Acemon, the scene of them getting along harmoniously was deliberately selected in the later stage. With the relaxed and cheerful BGM, the whole picture is very happy and full of youthful vitality.
The barrage in the first half was covered by a large area of "???", the fans were unexpected, but they quickly accepted the spoof method of the program group, and cooperated with the publicity——
"Am I the only one who thinks this is acting?"
"Welcome to the new variety show "Acemon Deformation Meter" by the famous bad idol group."
"Where did the program crew find five substitutes who look like this?"
"Dacao, the director hates them, right? This is hating them!"
"It's so warm, is this my real brother, I'm so happy."
……
In the second half, the painting style changed, the camera splicing was scattered, the horror sound effects appeared frequently, and the number of bullet screens doubled.Stars being frightened and being tricked has always been a variety show show that audiences love to watch, especially the members of Acemon who usually pull like [-], and even fans want to see the contrast between their embarrassing appearance.
The enthusiasm generated by the trailer was good, and the program group held another seminar.
The content of this discussion is simple but the key is to determine the roles of the five of them in the variety show, so as to form a distinctive style of the show as soon as possible, and make it easier for new audiences to get familiar with them.
From the perspective of fans, everyone wants to enjoy the best treatment for their own lives, but after all, "Limited Friendship" is a variety show that intends to target a wider audience. If it is limited by fans' preferences, it may be difficult to attract outsiders. audience.Therefore, in addition to being loved by everyone, there is also a need for members to act as the "suffering" type of people who are suspected by everyone.
Obviously, Koty can play in his true colors.
In addition, the relationship between the members also needs to be set. Of course, the most topical is the "sincere" CP line.The director screened a large number of fan speeches and told them: "What they like most is your subconscious interaction. The more natural and calm your behavior is, it means that you are used to it in private, which can give them a lot of room for imagination."
In other words, fans like to pick out candies themselves, rather than sending them directly to their mouths.
"Just let nature take its course." Zhu Lianzhen lazily raised his eyelids, not interested in this topic.
Director: "Yes, and I guess you don't want to put on a show too much, so we don't insist on this aspect."
"For the sake of program effect, we can accept appropriate performances." Talking about love, he looked at Zhu Lianzhen, "Yes, Xiao Zhu."
Zhu Lian really glanced at him, but said nothing.
Zhu Lianzhen has gradually come to understand recently that the main reason for his resistance to business is not to make troubles due to hypocrisy, but that even if he lets nature take its course, what CP fans make up is quite different from what actually happened.
For example, in the trailer, his phrase "Who are you holding?" was cut into the black scene in the later stage. There was only sound but no picture. Want to talk and coax"...as if he has nothing else to do all day long and just wants to be coaxed, who can find reason for this.
Obviously he accommodated and talked more times.
After the meeting, Zhu Lianzhen stopped the conversation and took the initiative to offer advice: "Don't be too nice to me in front of the camera from now on."
Tanqing was about to make a phone call, when he heard what he said, he put away his phone and put his own affairs aside, and asked calmly, "Which level is good?"
"That's right, follow what I want everywhere..." Zhu Lian really felt that he was caught by his question, and the volume of each word decreased.He didn't hear the conversation clearly, he frowned and lowered his head to get closer, "What?"
"That is to say, don't always listen to me!" Zhu Lianzhen suddenly became more confident, "Don't put on that kind of tolerant and gentle image in the show, it seems that I always follow you, with you..."
Zhu Lian was really stuck, and the word "act like a baby" instantly appeared in his mind, which made him shudder.
Without waiting for him to elaborate further, he said, "Understood."
Zhu Lianzhen: "Understand what?"
"I can't treat you differently." Tan Qing said, "I can treat you better than others, but I can't take your emotions too seriously."
Zhu Lianzhen thought about it for a while, almost the same meaning, but I have to add something: "I'm talking about in front of the camera."
Looking down at him, Tan Qing couldn't help laughing: "Yes."
After the simple agreement was made, Zhu Lian was really surprised. He thought that the relationship would be pretentious and used such rhetoric as "I treat everyone equally", "I didn't deliberately treat you well, and the performances in the show are all true thoughts", but he didn't expect Directly and openly admitted "discriminatory treatment".
The double standard is justifiable.
Zhu Lianzhen was really happy with the rare frankness of the relationship, and simply said: "It's nothing else, I just don't want fans to think that I'm the weak side when they see us together, they don't understand me at all How much can I tolerate you at ordinary times."
"I don't understand either." Tan Qing said.
Zhu Lian was really annoyed, and just wanted to ask if you were a piece of wood, but the conversation continued: "Isn't it better for no one to know how we really get along? Why correct other people's understanding."
Zhu Lianzhen should answer: "I still care about my personal image. Which male idol is willing to be sensualized by CP fans every day? It's not like you don't know how influential they are now. Just posting on Weibo can be tens of thousands change."
Talking about love without refuting, silently nodded.Seeing that the smile on his face disappeared, Zhu Lian realized that he was trying to show off his pity again, so he could only say: "Of course, I don't want them to know what kind of virtue we are in private. The main reason is that I was too passive before, but now I I also want to treat you a lot.”
"—Hah in front of the camera!" Zhu Lianzhen emphasized again.
Lowering her head in love, she took out the glasses from the black bag she carried and put them on. Zhu Lian really felt that he was going to have a serious conversation—after all, people who are short-sighted often can't understand what others are saying if they don't wear glasses.
Sure enough, after the sight of the conversation became clear, his expression became a little more serious than before, and he said in a deep voice, "Since it's a two-person business, then I can refuse."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Lianzhen almost replied, "You want to play with me again, but you still refuse, don't you?"Soon, he explained in a neither humble nor overbearing manner: "If you only have the opportunity to receive your attention during filming, then I would rather not have this kindness."
"You don't even want it for nothing?" Zhu Lianzhen immediately refuted him, "Do you still have a conscience? Who cooked porridge for you, who bought you medicine, and who stayed up on the phone with you in the middle of the night when you had a fever? Did I only pay attention to you when filming'?"
Talking: "But..."
Zhu Lianzhen: "What are you doing?"
"Most of what you did to me in the show was true, so I don't want fans to see it." The conversation slowly said, "It's enough for me to keep it for myself."
Knowing that talking about love may deliberately disturb his heart rhythm, but Zhu Lian really understood him for a moment.
Fortunately, my skills have increased by a few percent now, and I am not easy to be swayed by the conversation, "Real? That's what you think. When the actual camera is turned on, I only treat you as a business target. What I say and do, the primary purpose is To please the audience, get it? You have to do it in private if you want to be affectionate."
Tan Qing's eyes moved slightly, as if she was taken aback by Zhu Lianzhen's last words.
"But one illness is enough." Zhu Lianzhen instructed, "Don't pretend to be weak and let me visit you just because I said that."
Tan Qing shook her head with a smile, "No, I can't feel at ease doing this."
For the sake of peace of mind, it is not okay to intentionally make yourself sick—Zhu Lian really wanted to say this, but he was afraid that this would provide new ideas for the relationship.
"I remember everything you said, and the next recording will be closer to the mode you want." Tan Qing sincerely promised, "I also hope that you will really just be open for business."
"Do you need to remind me?" Zhu Lianzhen whispered.It seems that there are still private matters left to be dealt with during the conversation, so I will end the conversation wisely and stop disturbing.
After he left, Tan Qing took out his phone again.
The hot search terms in the search box were still there, but the web page did not display any news about the death of director Tan Ruisheng when he pressed the Enter key.So Tanqing directly got through the Tanxiao phone and asked about the situation.
Talking and laughing fluently replied: "The reporter made a mistake. Another patient in the hospital died. Dad is still undergoing chemotherapy. The doctor said that the chance of survival is higher. Brother, are there many rumors on the Internet?"
Tan Qing said: "No, I noticed it too late, and I have deleted them all."
He went on to say: "Since there are reporters nearby, you should avoid going to the hospital. Your photos have always been valuable."
"Don't worry, I covered myself very tightly." Tan Xiao was very confident about this, "By the way, brother, I forgot to tell you, actually... my parents already knew that I secretly contacted you."
There was no special reaction in Tanqing, and he responded lightly.
"Why are you not surprised at all!"
"Back then you were a primary school student, and you could be found out if you did anything under the eyes of your parents. Isn't that natural?" The conversation was as if nothing had happened, "You don't really think you can hide the truth, do you?"
Caught off guard by his calm ridicule, the frustration of talking and laughing increased, and his tone was aggrieved: "It's a pity that I still treat this as a girl's little secret."
She soon heard Tanqing's low laughing voice, calm and gentle: "If you have secrets in the future, you can continue to tell me."
"I don't, I tell you every time, but you never share it with me." Tan Xiao resolutely refused, quite rebellious in his youth.
"Not yet." Tan Qing said, "I might tell you something after your college entrance examination is over."
"Then it will take a long time...but I am willing to wait for you."
The two chatted a few more words, and the call ended.Tan Xiao put away the phone and returned to the intensive care unit.
Witnessing the pain of her father's chemotherapy requires mental endurance. Usually, she is not allowed to come in and disturb her. The adults are afraid that she will be distracted from her studies.However, Tan Ruisheng often wanted to see his daughter, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to see him suddenly one day. Besides, it was his responsibility as a father to teach his children to face up to death early.
He is discussing matters related to the will with his lawyer. Although the current chemotherapy situation is not bad, he has a huge amount of assets under his name, so he needs to start making arrangements early.Seeing Tan Xiao come in, he raised his head and asked, "Did you go to call Tan Qing?"
Nodding with a smile.
For a long time, she had been secretly in touch with her brother, mistakenly thinking that she had concealed it well. Until recently when chatting with her father, Tan Ruisheng simply said that she had discovered it long ago.
The first time Tanxiao knew the existence of Tanqing was when he was seven or eight years old.She often looks through her father's old photo albums. Many people's photos correspond to phone numbers on the back. Among them is a boy with handsome features. Every time he appears, he is hugged by his father. Tanxiao has been very interested in his identity since he can remember. .When she finally reached the age of elementary school, her mother bought her a mobile phone, and she took the opportunity to dial the number behind the boy's photo.
At that time, she had a few teeth replaced and her speech was vague, but the other party patiently understood and did not reject her as a strange child at all.After talking and laughing, I found out that the phone number was the number of my father's ex-wife. After the woman passed away, the card has been kept for love.
She got in touch with her brother whom she had never met by phone, and when she was in junior high school, she mustered up the courage to meet the romantic side who was already a big star. Of course, this was also hidden from her parents.After all, no one has ever taken the initiative to tell her that she has a half-brother, so when talking and laughing, she feels that she should abide by the wishes of the adults and silently guard this secret.
"Dad, don't leave me too many things. When I grow up, I don't know how to manage at all. Let Mom do it." Tan Xiao sat aside and listened to the conversation between his father and the lawyer for a long time, "But, you don't give anything to my brother. ?"
When talking about love, Tan Ruisheng always looked hesitant, and the loose skin on his face would tremble slightly because he hesitated to speak.Aside from the embarrassment, he also showed some concern about the relationship, but because he hadn't seen each other for a long time, this insignificant nostalgia quickly dissipated.
"I'm to him..." Tan Ruisheng opened his chapped and white lips. He often trembles when speaking now, and his thick voice always sounds sad that he didn't intend.
After a long silence, he continued, "I can't help him much."
Regardless of material or emotion, Tan Ruisheng knew that he had nothing left to talk about, and it took so many years to make up for it symbolically. It was completely superfluous, and it would only add trouble and disgust.
Tan Ruisheng stared at the stack of papers in front of him, and muttered to himself, "Let's write a letter."
"You can't hold the pen steadily now, may I help you?" Tan Xiao asked.
Tan Ruisheng shook his head, "I'll write slowly, and it's fine if I don't finish it; if I finish it, it's another matter whether I can give it away."
"Yeah." Tan Xiao handed him a brand new gel pen, which can write for a long time.
Tan Ruisheng only picked up the pen after finishing the materials for the will temporarily today.
Rather than writing a letter, it was actually more like he took this opportunity to clear away the negative emotions accumulated in his heart for many years, such as anger, shame, disappointment, guilt... No matter how long it has passed that day, he still remembers it vividly, and he may have to wait until he lies in the coffin time to forget.
He first wrote down the name of the relationship, and then said "I'm sorry", and then remembered that he forgot to add a greeting, but after thinking about it again, he felt that it was not necessary.
When Tan Ruisheng was writing, he asked Tan Xiao: "I rarely watch TV, what is he doing now, singing?"
"I can do anything, my brother is very versatile." Tan Xiao replied.
Tan Ruisheng nodded immediately, and agreed: "Yes, yes, I knew it earlier, he was very smart and capable when he was young."
Talking and laughing, he said: "There are many puzzles in his house, and he completed thousands of pieces by himself, which is amazing."
Tan Ruisheng still nodded.Realizing that his father likes to listen to love stories, Tanxiao said whatever he thought of: "He still grows flowers, no, he just buys flowers, he only looks at them beautifully, and doesn't take care of them seriously."
"He lives alone?"
"Yes, the house is small."
"Why is he small, he can't make money?"
"He can earn it, but he likes to live in a small house."
When Tan Ruisheng heard this, the flesh on his face slumped again, and he couldn't bear to sigh after a long time: "Really, we used to live in a small house."
Tanxiao continued: "My brother cooks delicious food."
"En." Tan Ruisheng stopped nodding because his neck was tired, "I should have learned it from his mother."
"What about the accordion?" Tan laughed and asked, "He said he learned it when he was a child, but he didn't have much chance to play it when he grew up."
Tan Ruisheng thought for a while: "Oh, his mother also asked him to learn it."
Tan Xiaole said: "Why didn't you inherit any talent from you?"
Tan Ruisheng was silent, thoughtful.
"I taught him some talents that he didn't need." Tan Ruisheng remembers very clearly, "I had no grades in filming at that time, and I didn't have the funds to go out on my own. At home, I could only write scripts, draw and storyboard, and shoot. Stop motion... you know stop motion animation."
Talking and laughing: "Yeah."
"I bought a bucket of plasticine for him to play with. He pinched a few dolls and played with them bit by bit. I knew at a glance that he was imitating what I usually do. He is only over two years old. Observation and memory are far inferior to other children."
Tan Ruisheng spoke in a hurry and changed several tones.
Talking and laughing, he asked, "Apart from plasticine, brother, doesn't he play with other things?"
"I bought him everything, he never made a fuss, and when he played with a car, he always took it apart to see the structure inside." Tan Ruisheng said, "At that time, I thought, does he have the potential to be an inventor when he grows up? But in other respects, he is also different from ordinary children."
Tan Xiao's eyes brightened: "Brother is a genius!"
"I don't know." Tan Ruisheng stopped writing unconsciously, "I mean, other than intelligence...he is very good at looking at adults."
Tan Ruisheng's eyes were fixed on a certain point on the white wall in the distance, and he recalled: "When he couldn't speak, he could understand good words, and he could distinguish jokes, and was afraid of bad words. Well, he knows not to cry."
Talking and laughing: "You're so sensible...you really deserve to be my brother."
"Yeah, he is very sensible. Sometimes I lie on the bed and let him ride a horse, but he refuses because he is afraid that I will be tired. At that time, he was only... three or four years old."
Talking and laughing: "You have a really good memory, you deserve to be my father."
"Because I don't remember many things..." Tan Ruisheng closed his eyes for a while, "I often go out to shoot movies, and I spend very little time with him. Every time I go home, he will play hide-and-seek with me."
Talking and laughing: "Aren't you pestering you for gifts?"
"He doesn't want it, and he doesn't want it on his birthday." Tan Ruisheng couldn't help being puzzled, "Obviously we haven't taught him, but he can remember to pay back whoever treats him well."
Tan Ruisheng continued: "When playing hide-and-seek, he often hid in the closet. I pretended I couldn't find it, and turned around the curtains, and finally opened the closet door. He smiled very happily."
"My brother looks really good when he smiles." Talking and laughing with pride.
"Well, his mother is from Xinjiang. When he was a child, his facial features were very beautiful. When he walked outside, everyone had to look back at him and ask if he was of mixed race." Tan Ruisheng unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth, "He looks so good now Less like his mother, more like himself."
"I wondered at the time, why does he always hide in the closet for such a smart kid? Isn't it easy for me to find it? Why don't he go outside? After thinking about it, I think it's because the outside is too big. If he is serious Hidden, I guess I can't find it—so he put water on me."
"How old is my brother at this time?"
"Five years old." Tan Ruisheng spoke slowly, his eyes drooping, staring at the white paper wet with sweat from his hands, "The last time I saw him...he was only this old."
Talking about the most regrettable thing in this life, Tan Ruisheng must definitely think of that day.
He returned home from the hospital in a daze, and realized that he had suffered unprecedented humiliation and betrayal. In a rage, he slapped his wife to the ground.Years of refinement and upbringing vanished in an instant, he only cared about venting, and the woman's pitch-black hair was wrapped around his fingers, like weeds that couldn't be untied.
When he yelled and cursed, the woman just curled up on the ground to listen; when he punched and kicked, the woman covered her fragile head with a muffled voice, leaving her body for him to beat.Still not relieved after beating, she continued to scold the boy she gave birth to.
The boy was not at home at the time, and seemed to have gone out to play, so Tan Ruisheng scolded boldly and viciously, even so, it was difficult to explain the hatred in his heart.
Finally he was tired from beating and cursing, and a dull pain slowly came from his whole heart.He wept weakly, and the woman lay on the ground with disheveled hair and sobbed.Both of them are like ghosts.
Tan Ruisheng's dignity as a man was completely shattered, and he didn't want to stay in this house for a moment.He dragged a huge nylon bag, ready to pack up and move away.
However, when he opened the closet door, his whole body seemed to be frozen, and his eyes stared blankly inside——
The boy was sitting with his knees hugged, his hair was covered with sweat, and he was also looking straight at him.
This was the last time Tan Ruisheng played hide and seek with him.
Although other people also like stage performances, they are more or less mixed with other desires.Ji Yunting learned to dance in the past because he wanted to be praised as handsome by the girl he had a crush on; Koty has been a playboy since he was a child, and he entered the circle with a playful attitude; Fu Rong's goal is the simplest, to make a lot of money; He has already left.
As for the love affair, rather than saying that he yearns for the stage, it is better to say that he is suitable for this profession.Zhu Lianzhen has always hated those clichés that say that idols are "born to be on stage", but they have to admit that love is well deserved.

"You don't even want it for nothing?" Zhu Lianzhen immediately refuted him, "Do you still have a conscience? Who cooked porridge for you, who bought you medicine, and who stayed up on the phone with you in the middle of the night when you had a fever? Did I only pay attention to you when filming'?"
Talking: "But..."
Zhu Lianzhen: "What are you doing?"
"Most of what you did to me in the show was true, so I don't want fans to see it." The conversation slowly said, "It's enough for me to keep it for myself."
Knowing that talking about love may deliberately disturb his heart rhythm, but Zhu Lian really understood him for a moment.
Fortunately, my skills have increased by a few percent now, and I am not easy to be swayed by the conversation, "Real? That's what you think. When the actual camera is turned on, I only treat you as a business target. What I say and do, the primary purpose is To please the audience, get it? You have to do it in private if you want to be affectionate."
Tan Qing's eyes moved slightly, as if she was taken aback by Zhu Lianzhen's last words.
"But one illness is enough." Zhu Lianzhen instructed, "Don't pretend to be weak and let me visit you just because I said that."
Tan Qing shook her head with a smile, "No, I can't feel at ease doing this."
For the sake of peace of mind, it is not okay to intentionally make yourself sick—Zhu Lian really wanted to say this, but he was afraid that this would provide new ideas for the relationship.
"I remember everything you said, and the next recording will be closer to the mode you want." Tan Qing sincerely promised, "I also hope that you will really just be open for business."
"Do you need to remind me?" Zhu Lianzhen whispered.It seems that there are still private matters left to be dealt with during the conversation, so I will end the conversation wisely and stop disturbing.
After he left, Tan Qing took out his phone again.
The hot search terms in the search box were still there, but the web page did not display any news about the death of director Tan Ruisheng when he pressed the Enter key.So Tanqing directly got through the Tanxiao phone and asked about the situation.
Talking and laughing fluently replied: "The reporter made a mistake. Another patient in the hospital died. Dad is still undergoing chemotherapy. The doctor said that the chance of survival is higher. Brother, are there many rumors on the Internet?"
Tan Qing said: "No, I noticed it too late, and I have deleted them all."
He went on to say: "Since there are reporters nearby, you should avoid going to the hospital. Your photos have always been valuable."
"Don't worry, I covered myself very tightly." Tan Xiao was very confident about this, "By the way, brother, I forgot to tell you, actually... my parents already knew that I secretly contacted you."
There was no special reaction in Tanqing, and he responded lightly.
"Why are you not surprised at all!"
"Back then you were a primary school student, and you could be found out if you did anything under the eyes of your parents. Isn't that natural?" The conversation was as if nothing had happened, "You don't really think you can hide the truth, do you?"
Caught off guard by his calm ridicule, the frustration of talking and laughing increased, and his tone was aggrieved: "It's a pity that I still treat this as a girl's little secret."
She soon heard Tanqing's low laughing voice, calm and gentle: "If you have secrets in the future, you can continue to tell me."
"I don't, I tell you every time, but you never share it with me." Tan Xiao resolutely refused, quite rebellious in his youth.
"Not yet." Tan Qing said, "I might tell you something after your college entrance examination is over."
"Then it will take a long time...but I am willing to wait for you."
The two chatted a few more words, and the call ended.Tan Xiao put away the phone and returned to the intensive care unit.
Witnessing the pain of her father's chemotherapy requires mental endurance. Usually, she is not allowed to come in and disturb her. The adults are afraid that she will be distracted from her studies.However, Tan Ruisheng often wanted to see his daughter, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to see him suddenly one day. Besides, it was his responsibility as a father to teach his children to face up to death early.
He is discussing matters related to the will with his lawyer. Although the current chemotherapy situation is not bad, he has a huge amount of assets under his name, so he needs to start making arrangements early.Seeing Tan Xiao come in, he raised his head and asked, "Did you go to call Tan Qing?"
Nodding with a smile.
For a long time, she had been secretly in touch with her brother, mistakenly thinking that she had concealed it well. Until recently when chatting with her father, Tan Ruisheng simply said that she had discovered it long ago.
The first time Tanxiao knew the existence of Tanqing was when he was seven or eight years old.She often looks through her father's old photo albums. Many people's photos correspond to phone numbers on the back. Among them is a boy with handsome features. Every time he appears, he is hugged by his father. Tanxiao has been very interested in his identity since he can remember. .When she finally reached the age of elementary school, her mother bought her a mobile phone, and she took the opportunity to dial the number behind the boy's photo.
At that time, she had a few teeth replaced and her speech was vague, but the other party patiently understood and did not reject her as a strange child at all.After talking and laughing, I found out that the phone number was the number of my father's ex-wife. After the woman passed away, the card has been kept for love.
She got in touch with her brother whom she had never met by phone, and when she was in junior high school, she mustered up the courage to meet the romantic side who was already a big star. Of course, this was also hidden from her parents.After all, no one has ever taken the initiative to tell her that she has a half-brother, so when talking and laughing, she feels that she should abide by the wishes of the adults and silently guard this secret.
"Dad, don't leave me too many things. When I grow up, I don't know how to manage at all. Let Mom do it." Tan Xiao sat aside and listened to the conversation between his father and the lawyer for a long time, "But, you don't give anything to my brother. ?"
When talking about love, Tan Ruisheng always looked hesitant, and the loose skin on his face would tremble slightly because he hesitated to speak.Aside from the embarrassment, he also showed some concern about the relationship, but because he hadn't seen each other for a long time, this insignificant nostalgia quickly dissipated.
"I'm to him..." Tan Ruisheng opened his chapped and white lips. He often trembles when speaking now, and his thick voice always sounds sad that he didn't intend.
After a long silence, he continued, "I can't help him much."
Regardless of material or emotion, Tan Ruisheng knew that he had nothing left to talk about, and it took so many years to make up for it symbolically. It was completely superfluous, and it would only add trouble and disgust.
Tan Ruisheng stared at the stack of papers in front of him, and muttered to himself, "Let's write a letter."
"You can't hold the pen steadily now, may I help you?" Tan Xiao asked.
Tan Ruisheng shook his head, "I'll write slowly, and it's fine if I don't finish it; if I finish it, it's another matter whether I can give it away."
"Yeah." Tan Xiao handed him a brand new gel pen, which can write for a long time.
Tan Ruisheng only picked up the pen after finishing the materials for the will temporarily today.
Rather than writing a letter, it was actually more like he took this opportunity to clear away the negative emotions accumulated in his heart for many years, such as anger, shame, disappointment, guilt... No matter how long it has passed that day, he still remembers it vividly, and he may have to wait until he lies in the coffin time to forget.
He first wrote down the name of the relationship, and then said "I'm sorry", and then remembered that he forgot to add a greeting, but after thinking about it again, he felt that it was not necessary.
When Tan Ruisheng was writing, he asked Tan Xiao: "I rarely watch TV, what is he doing now, singing?"
"I can do anything, my brother is very versatile." Tan Xiao replied.
Tan Ruisheng nodded immediately, and agreed: "Yes, yes, I knew it earlier, he was very smart and capable when he was young."
Talking and laughing, he said: "There are many puzzles in his house, and he completed thousands of pieces by himself, which is amazing."
Tan Ruisheng still nodded.Realizing that his father likes to listen to love stories, Tanxiao said whatever he thought of: "He still grows flowers, no, he just buys flowers, he only looks at them beautifully, and doesn't take care of them seriously."
"He lives alone?"
"Yes, the house is small."
"Why is he small, he can't make money?"
"He can earn it, but he likes to live in a small house."
When Tan Ruisheng heard this, the flesh on his face slumped again, and he couldn't bear to sigh after a long time: "Really, we used to live in a small house."
Tanxiao continued: "My brother cooks delicious food."
"En." Tan Ruisheng stopped nodding because his neck was tired, "I should have learned it from his mother."
"What about the accordion?" Tan laughed and asked, "He said he learned it when he was a child, but he didn't have much chance to play it when he grew up."
Tan Ruisheng thought for a while: "Oh, his mother also asked him to learn it."
Tan Xiaole said: "Why didn't you inherit any talent from you?"
Tan Ruisheng was silent, thoughtful.
"I taught him some talents that he didn't need." Tan Ruisheng remembers very clearly, "I had no grades in filming at that time, and I didn't have the funds to go out on my own. At home, I could only write scripts, draw and storyboard, and shoot. Stop motion... you know stop motion animation."
Talking and laughing: "Yeah."
"I bought a bucket of plasticine for him to play with. He pinched a few dolls and played with them bit by bit. I knew at a glance that he was imitating what I usually do. He is only over two years old. Observation and memory are far inferior to other children."
Tan Ruisheng spoke in a hurry and changed several tones.
Talking and laughing, he asked, "Apart from plasticine, brother, doesn't he play with other things?"
"I bought him everything, he never made a fuss, and when he played with a car, he always took it apart to see the structure inside." Tan Ruisheng said, "At that time, I thought, does he have the potential to be an inventor when he grows up? But in other respects, he is also different from ordinary children."
Tan Xiao's eyes brightened: "Brother is a genius!"
"I don't know." Tan Ruisheng stopped writing unconsciously, "I mean, other than intelligence...he is very good at looking at adults."
Tan Ruisheng's eyes were fixed on a certain point on the white wall in the distance, and he recalled: "When he couldn't speak, he could understand good words, and he could distinguish jokes, and was afraid of bad words. Well, he knows not to cry."
Talking and laughing: "You're so sensible...you really deserve to be my brother."
"Yeah, he is very sensible. Sometimes I lie on the bed and let him ride a horse, but he refuses because he is afraid that I will be tired. At that time, he was only... three or four years old."
Talking and laughing: "You have a really good memory, you deserve to be my father."
"Because I don't remember many things..." Tan Ruisheng closed his eyes for a while, "I often go out to shoot movies, and I spend very little time with him. Every time I go home, he will play hide-and-seek with me."
Talking and laughing: "Aren't you pestering you for gifts?"
"He doesn't want it, and he doesn't want it on his birthday." Tan Ruisheng couldn't help being puzzled, "Obviously we haven't taught him, but he can remember to pay back whoever treats him well."
Tan Ruisheng continued: "When playing hide-and-seek, he often hid in the closet. I pretended I couldn't find it, and turned around the curtains, and finally opened the closet door. He smiled very happily."
"My brother looks really good when he smiles." Talking and laughing with pride.
"Well, his mother is from Xinjiang. When he was a child, his facial features were very beautiful. When he walked outside, everyone had to look back at him and ask if he was of mixed race." Tan Ruisheng unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth, "He looks so good now Less like his mother, more like himself."
"I wondered at the time, why does he always hide in the closet for such a smart kid? Isn't it easy for me to find it? Why don't he go outside? After thinking about it, I think it's because the outside is too big. If he is serious Hidden, I guess I can't find it—so he put water on me."
"How old is my brother at this time?"
"Five years old." Tan Ruisheng spoke slowly, his eyes drooping, staring at the white paper wet with sweat from his hands, "The last time I saw him...he was only this old."
Talking about the most regrettable thing in this life, Tan Ruisheng must definitely think of that day.
He returned home from the hospital in a daze, and realized that he had suffered unprecedented humiliation and betrayal. In a rage, he slapped his wife to the ground.Years of refinement and upbringing vanished in an instant, he only cared about venting, and the woman's pitch-black hair was wrapped around his fingers, like weeds that couldn't be untied.
When he yelled and cursed, the woman just curled up on the ground to listen; when he punched and kicked, the woman covered her fragile head with a muffled voice, leaving her body for him to beat.Still not relieved after beating, she continued to scold the boy she gave birth to.
The boy was not at home at the time, and seemed to have gone out to play, so Tan Ruisheng scolded boldly and viciously, even so, it was difficult to explain the hatred in his heart.
Finally he was tired from beating and cursing, and a dull pain slowly came from his whole heart.He wept weakly, and the woman lay on the ground with disheveled hair and sobbed.Both of them are like ghosts.
Tan Ruisheng's dignity as a man was completely shattered, and he didn't want to stay in this house for a moment.He dragged a huge nylon bag, ready to pack up and move away.
However, when he opened the closet door, his whole body seemed to be frozen, and his eyes stared blankly inside——
The boy was sitting with his knees hugged, his hair was covered with sweat, and he was also looking straight at him.
This was the last time Tan Ruisheng played hide and seek with him.
