acting peak

In Xishan, Beijing in October, the red leaves are deep and shallow, and the water is dense.

The first thing Han Guibai did after getting out of the car was to take a deep breath.The weather is already a bit cold, and the smell of late autumn leaves lingers in the nose. "It's such a good place," he squinted his eyes slightly, very comfortable, "beautiful."

The boundary of Beijing has always been evaluated as "rich in the east and rich in the west".For villas located in Xishan, the house price is high or low, and it is undoubtedly a status symbol.

Unlike Han Guibai who has never been to Chu's main residence, as a distant relative of Chu's, Shen Xianmo has visited several times.However, those few occasions were all due to family reasons, and there was a huge gap with the small-scale banquets of unknown purpose now.

"At this time, uncle should still be doing Tai Chi." He raised his hand and looked at his watch.

Han Guibai didn't know anything about Chu Hongjian's routine, but he thought it was fine if he wasn't late. "Then what?"

Shen Xianmo looked sideways at the person.The two of them wore long trench coats of similar colors today, which were no different from couple outfits, and they were uncontrollably excited. "Anyway, let's go in first."

Like bodyguards, Chu's servants are also of excellent quality.Besides, Chu Xiu was already waiting in the living room, so it was even more impossible for the two of them to be neglected.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Han Guibai couldn't help but ask, "What's the matter with the old man today? Let's talk about it first, Axiu?"

Chu Xiu looked at him, but didn't answer directly. "Gui Bai, I remember you learned Tai Chi?"

This is already the second time today when he heard the word Taiji, Han Guibai keenly sensed something. "Don't," he waved his hands again and again, "I used to be required to learn when filming, but I haven't practiced for a long time... I'm just a showman! I want to make a fool of myself in front of experts!"

Chu Xiu didn't mind too much. "It's just exercising. Why are you so particular about it? The old man is not picky about it." He paused, then added: "Besides, it's not like you haven't practiced with him before."

Han Guibai immediately wanted to make a bitter face, but the circumstances did not allow it. "Last time, I was making blind gestures..." he struggled.

"Go, Dabai." Shen Xianmo said suddenly. "Brother Xiu and I don't know it at all, so I can only ask you to make my cousin happy." When he knew that Chu Hongjian had invited them to drink tea, he had asked someone about it—Chu Hongjian had a good impression of Han Guibai; I don't know exactly how much, anyway, it's not close to the difference.

Han Guibai looked left and right, then sighed and stood up. "Do you have any clothes for me?"

As soon as Chu Xiu raised his hand, a servant immediately led Han Guibai to the dressing room.When their figures disappeared, there were only two people left in the living room.One spoke little, and the other was silent, so quiet that it was almost dead silent.

Half a minute later, Shen Xianmo spoke first. "A set of one hundred and eight forms of Yang's Tai Chi fast frame, adding up the front and back, will last for only 10 minutes." He said softly, and glanced at the grandfather clock beside him. "Brother Xiu, if you have something to say, speak quickly."

Everyone is smart, Chu Xiu believed that Han Guibai also knew that he was deliberately dismissed. "You know everything?" About the purpose of drinking tea this time, and the relationship between him and Han Guibai?

"Part of it," Shen Yanmo admitted frankly, not surprised by Chu Xiu's interrogative tone, "Dabai didn't say it, I guessed it myself."

"Then I don't think you told Gui Bai what the part you guessed was." Chu Xiu spoke evenly, but at the same time, he was very direct.

"Because I will tell him at the right time." Shen Xianmo replied quickly, "At the same time, I also believe that at the right time, he will also tell me the truth."

This statement is too blunt, almost saying "Dabai and I are a frank couple".Chu Xiu could tell, but his expression remained calm: "You are very confident."

"I don't deny it, but that's only half of it." Shen Wei smiled silently, without any intention of giving in.

There was something in these words, Chu Xiu frowned slightly.Is Shen Xianmo implying that the other half is Han Guibai's feelings for him? “But to be too confident is to be arrogant.”

"That's your idea, and I really have no right to interfere." Shen Xianmo's answer was more neat and tidy - that's how clean and tidy it is for rivals in love!

The subtext is undoubtedly "you may not be right if you think that way" or "I don't think so".Polite, but aggressive, no question.The result was another eerie silence.

"You are not reconciled." It was Shen Shumo who spoke first again.

If Mi Fensi who gave him sees his current performance and can keep up with the thinking of the two of them, his eyes will pop out of his eyes in fright—reticent and shy?Pure nonsense!The straight-to-the-point, aggressive posture is so different from the usual painting style, it's almost as good as Han Guibai!

But Chu Xiu laughed this time. "You said that," he shook his head slightly, "when the outcome is uncertain, what are you willing to talk about?" The implication is that he will definitely stick to it to the end.

The decision to win or lose is in Han Guibai's hands, Shen Xianmo can't and doesn't want to draw conclusions for Han Guibai.But he has reasons to believe that the current situation is obviously more favorable to him; after analyzing it, it is entirely possible to take advantage of the victory and pursue it. "Do you really think you have the power to recover?" he asked back.

Chu Xiu disagreed with this statement.However, his reason involves the past, and he thinks that Shen Xianmo should not be told by him.

This kind of silence is not a guilty conscience, it can be easily judged from the expression. "Zhuang Peng is you." Shen Xianmo stared at him, making it clear. "Of course, most of the places are completely different. But the point is at the end, isn't it? The only thing you want Dabai to notice is the ending, right?"

Chu Xiu still didn't answer, but the line of his jaw tightened imperceptibly.

Shen Xianmo looked at the other party's unchanged expression, and continued: "Indeed, there are no lines in the script book." He nodded slightly, then shook his head again, "But dare you say that Lei Qingteng's ending is not what you expected Do you want the image he represents in it? What does his sobriety and death represent respectively? Or, whether he is alive or dead, the key to you is Dabai's thoughts on Zhuang Peng's character?"

These words add up to a conclusion, he wants to know Han Guibai's thoughts on his feelings.Chu Xiu pursed his lips tightly and remained silent for the third time.

"It's not difficult for you to express your opinion now, but it's too late;" Shen Xianmo finally made such an assertion. "I'm late, yes, but that doesn't mean I'm bound to miss it."

Love is time-sensitive; knowing it too early or too late will not work.It is also time-sensitive; if you miss an opportunity, there may not be a next time.

Moreover, time can change, not just chance.

At this time, Han Guibai was doing Tai Chi in the garden, his movements were clean and powerful, he didn't look like Yali Mountain before.A few years ago, he took on the role of a Tai Chi master, for which he practiced Tai Chi hard for half a year.Although the ability is still far from an expert, but after all, it took a lot of effort to get in.After slowly regaining the feeling, it still looks decent, especially the fixed posture at the end.

"Young people are good," Chu Hongjian smiled and looked at the thin layer of sweat on Han Guibai's forehead after finishing, "You are much more energetic than me."

Han Guibai has never had a hobby of playing tricks, so he hastily declined after hearing this. "I really dare not take that."

"Blindly modest." Chu Hongjian smiled, "Is it because I stand on the side, you are under too much pressure? I don't think you are usually like this?"

"...Usually?" Han Guibai felt that something was wrong.

He and Chu Hongjian had met once before, and there was no phone call. Where did he come from?Unless Chu Hongjian read gossip magazines, or watched his personal homepage...

Wait, no matter which one, the pressure is greater, right? !All kinds of bloody storms!

Chu Hongjian still didn't mind. "Yeah, I've watched all the movies you made, and I've paid attention to some other news."

There are actually many such people, but when it comes to Chu Hongjian, Han Guibai feels even more pressure.Doesn't this mean that when "Northern Fish" is released, Chu Hongjian will also want to watch it?Wouldn't it be bad to see Shen Xianmo and him on the screen doing something?

At this time, I have to mention that Han Guibai is actually very attractive to the elders, and he also knows how to deal with them, as you can see from the trip to Venice.But, for the time being, this scope has not been extended to the elders who "suspectly already know that their son is interested in me, and even came to me for it", at least he can't be sure now.

Chu Hongjian seemed to have guessed Han Guibai's stress point. "For young people, it's good to be motivated, and it's even better to be dedicated." He said so. "360 lines, every line is the best. I earn a little more money, but you are much better than me as an actor!"

Your money is just a little too much... Han Guibai couldn't help but wiped off a lot of sweat in his heart. "That can't be compared like this." He pretended to be serious.

"What?" Chu Hongjian was curious, "What did you say?"

Han Guibai counted with his fingers: "When I reach your age, it will be too late to compare!"

Chu Hongjian was taken aback for a moment, then smiled when he realized it. "That's right, I've been taking advantage of you for more than [-] years now, that's not good!"

In this way, the two walked back talking and laughing.Change out of the practice clothes, and then go to the tea room.After the flowers were cut and the water was boiled, Chu Xiu and Shen Xianmo were already waiting.

Although the appearance of the two of them looked the same as before, Han Guibai still took another look.He wouldn't believe it even if he was killed. They didn't say anything they didn't want him to hear when he walked away!

Chu Xiu smiled slightly at this, while Shen Xianmo's expression was as innocent as possible.

At this moment when everyone finished greeting, Han Guibai sat down silently.Pretend, you two can pretend!In addition, if he is not mistaken, although he and Shen Xianmo are the only professional actors, the acting skills of the other two are definitely not much different!

The four of them sat around a short table of eight immortals, their faces were harmonious, but the undercurrent was turbulent, Chu Hongjian seemed unaware of it.Chu Xiu is his own son, and he had just talked to Han Guibai, so of course he was the first to ask Shen Xianmo: "Xiao Mo, how is your work after the next year?"

In Chu's family, there is a large-scale family gathering during the Spring Festival, both Chu Hongjian and Shen Xianmo attended, so now it is specifically meant to be like this after the New Year.

"Very good." Shen Xian replied with a silent smile, and took another look at Han Guibai, "This year I will mainly partner with Dabai, and I have benefited a lot."

"Okay, we must learn," Chu Hongjian affirmed, and asked Han Guibai again, "Do you have a saying of 'teaching apprentices to starve to death of the master'? If so, I'd better take back what I said earlier."

Han Guibai vaguely felt a little bit of a demonstration—of course not Chu Hongjian—but his answer was still watertight: "If there is a chance, I would rather die of starvation."

These words were closer to Han Guibai's usual performance, and Chu Hongjian was amused.Whether it is madness or self-confidence, he appreciates it, as long as he really has the corresponding strength. "Oh? Dare to say such a thing, it seems that Xiao Mo wants to catch up with you, and there is a long way to go!"

Shen Xianmo nodded immediately.No matter what aspect of Chu Hongjian's "catch up" is, it is a fact.For example, even if he believes that he has the upper hand over Chu Xiu now, he will not take it lightly and let others find an opportunity to take advantage of it—at any time, absolutely not!

Chu Xiu looked at Shen Xianmo on the opposite side, and then at Han Guibai at the side, his eyes flickered slightly.
