There is a tiger sniffing the rose in my heart

Andre Mond.

Once upon a time, in the nightmare that could not be shaken off at midnight, Jinran dreamed of this person countless times, and then woke up with a start.

In the dream, the man stood under the temperatureless sunlight, his blond hair was dazzling, he opened his mouth to reveal his neat white teeth, and smiled at Jinran the most evil in the world , as if in the next second, he would pounce on him, bite off his neck, and suck all the blood in his body...

The dream will usually end quickly when it reaches here - for ordinary people, ordinary nightmares will only awaken the dreamer from the dream when they dream that they are dying or when they are extremely nervous. Looking at the golden-haired demon, he didn't even have to do anything, just standing there and smiling at him was enough to scare him awake from his dream.

Such nightmares once caused Jinran, who was a teenager, to have a long history of insomnia and mental breakdown.

Jinran spent a long time forgetting some things that should not exist in memory, walked out of the shadows, returned to campus, graduated normally, then came into contact with the film and television industry, and came into the eyes of the public...

His busy career left him almost no time to look back on the past.

And he didn't expect that after 12 years, when his life was on the right track, and he almost forgot that this person existed in his life, he would re-enter his world without warning—— The large bouquet of fiery red roses in his arms was like a thorn flower handed out from the hands of a witch. He held it and stood there, only feeling that the fragrance of the roses made him feel nauseous and dizzy...

He wanted to turn around and run away.

Just like back then, be a cowardly deserter.

But this time, Jin Ran knew that he couldn't do this—here was his career, his friends, and his future—countless pairs of eyes were watching him, and he was no longer the same person he used to be when he met things. A boy who just shrinks up.

At this moment, the shadow cast by Andre's tall figure completely enveloped him, he mustered up his courage, slightly raised his jaw into a strong arc, and looked at the amber pupils buried deep in his memory. Looking at each other——

In my memory, this person has always had a stronger and taller body than his peers. Such a body contains endless power, so that no one dares to do anything to resist in front of him. I thought about it, he has grown a lot taller over the years, maybe when he meets this person again, he will not be as afraid as before... But the fact now is that in the past 12 years, he, Yuan Jinran, has indeed grown to 1.7 meters Six is ​​a standard adult man's size, and while he is growing, someone on the other side of the earth is also growing rapidly——

He was close to 1.8 meters five in high school, and now he has grown by about ten centimeters.

Even the sharp and expensive white suit on his body can't hide his strong muscles. It seems that he has been ripped off impatiently, and the wheat-colored skin can be easily seen under the open neckline in a bohemian style. And the faintly bulging muscles...

And those hands... Jinran almost retracted his gaze immediately after he glanced at it. The big bouquet of roses in his arms at this moment, when he was in those big hands a second ago, looked like It's as ridiculous as a bunch of toy flowers.

"As expected, this thing should be in your hands. I've had enough of all kinds of strange eyes when I took it all the way from the corridor." Regardless of the pale face of the black-haired young man in front of him, his body couldn't stop trembling slightly and his forehead was swollen. Breaking out in cold sweat and looking like he was about to fall down at any moment, the man named Andremond raised his finger and lightly flicked one of the roses in the bouquet of roses held by the black-haired young man. He chuckled, and said in a low voice that seemed very satisfied, "I always thought you were a good match for Red Rose."

The rose that he had played snapped off the stem with a snap.

He talked to himself, talking to himself, and seemed to enjoy it even if he didn't answer him.

The appearance of Andre attracted the attention of some people in the banquet hall—of course, he was tall and good-looking, if it wasn't for the ferocious aura that couldn't be concealed by his suit and leather shoes, he would have almost He can be regarded as a handsome rich man...

What's more, when he came in, he was holding a large bouquet of roses in his hand--

Then, the eyes of the female stars present were full of anticipation, and they were waiting for such a large bouquet of flowers and a tall and mighty handsome man to come to me together, making me the most envied person tonight. When she was young, she never expected that this bouquet of roses would be stuffed into the arms of another man carelessly...

If you insist on saying that there is some misunderstanding in it.

Then Andremond hugged the black-haired young man with excitement and took a bite. Even if this behavior completely dispelled the thoughts of all the girls who were relieved and sprouting at the scene——

"Oh my god, I'm not as fucking a man."

This is what most of the ladies present are thinking at this moment.

"—but he is indeed beautiful, and he does have acting skills. I wonder why Hollywood didn't discover him earlier—if he was younger, he would be even more popular than he is now."

The number one heroine of "Mysterious Seed", the international actress Shala raised the red wine glass in her hand and shook it gently. Say to your female partner: "I always thought that Asians were yellow, and now I found out that I was horribly wrong-look at him, when standing in front of women, he is like a medieval knight with poise; standing When he was in front of a man, he instantly became a princess who should be protected..."

Having said that, she stopped again - in fact, there are quite a few Asians who are beautiful, such as some Korean stars, strictly speaking, they are all prettier than girls.

But Yuan Jinran is different.

Compared with those real idol stars, he seems to be a little bit worse if he has to rely on his face to make a living—but when he stands in front of people, every word, deed, and every move gives people an unspeakable feeling. I have a special feeling: Some people are destined to be actors when they are born, and Yuan Jinran is probably such a person.

When he was on screen, it was difficult for people sitting in front of the TV to take their eyes off him.

It was as if everything he did was right and taken for granted—even if he was holding a bouquet of fiery red roses in public and being hugged and kissed by a man with a head like a bear.

Thinking of this, Sarah couldn't help but feel that her worldview had collapsed.

At this time, Sarah's female partner couldn't help but shook her head twice when she heard the words, and had to admit that when the black-haired young man stood with the bear-like Andre, it really didn't make people feel any discomfort. Sure—for God's sake, she still can't help recalling in her mind the shock of seeing them kissing for a few seconds just now, so she said with emotion: "Both men and women kill each other."

Sarah sneered: "It's delicious."

At this time, there are obviously many people who are whispering and discussing like them—just now, the real banquet hall has finally regained some original vitality after falling into a short and terrible silence, although even now However, he could feel countless eyes falling on him, like needles piercing his skin through his coat, the tingling feeling made his nerves tense and he woke up suddenly——

So, he made an astonishing move——he stuffed the large bouquet of roses in his arms back into the arms of the tall man standing in front of him, and then stepped back a few steps, dying with those black pupils. Staring at the person in front of him, he said warily, "Why are you here?"

Andre held the bouquet of flowers and shook them casually—the bouquet that opened just right dropped a few fiery petals because of his action. He smiled and replied: "I thought you were going to stay silent all night. , just stood there staring at me."

Jin Ran pursed her lips, looking very unhappy.

Andre shrugged: "I thought you had a certain awareness when you saw the surname 'Mond' on the list of investors, and even guessed whether you would come to this premiere-I was pleasantly surprised I'm disappointed that you actually came; and I'm disappointed that you obviously came with the idea that 'probably this name is bad street and it can't be him'..."

Jinran said that he was too lazy to listen to his long-winded words, and it was very difficult to talk to Andre, because he had a strong accent when he spoke English, and this point has not changed even after so many years——

Yes, back then he used the reason of "learning English" to...

Realizing that I am almost irresistibly drawn into the abyss of memory again.Jin Ran shuddered, and he tried his best not to show any inappropriate looks like "panic" on his face—because he knew that many people, including Mr. Mandalorian producer, were already Pay attention here, he really can't make more outrageous actions to make them more curious...

Gathering my mind, I said in a low voice: "If I knew you were here tonight, I would definitely not come."

"It's heartless."

When he sighed like this, the corners of the man's lips were raised slightly, as if he had anticipated the situation.

Jin Ran glanced at the handful of fiery red roses in his hand, almost felt that his eyes were going to burn, and he clenched his cold hands slightly, and said calmly, "It's been so many years, Ann Andre, if we meet again on this occasion, I don't think we need—"

"You were the one who willfully said it was over back then."

"..."

"And you should know that the control is never yours."

"Mr. Mond," Jin Ran felt a little angry, which made him suppress his fear a little and had the courage to call out the name of the self-talking man in front of him, "I think I can say it both back then and now. It's clear—"

"You can't do without me, of course." Andre took a step forward, and when he saw the black-haired young man immediately took a step back, his amber pupils flashed like meat when he was about to catch prey. With the joyful and wanton light that only animals have, he lowered his voice, bent slightly in front of the black-haired young man, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "You can't leave me, whether it was back then or now... Ah, I really miss the time when you laughed and called me Mr. Mond or Andre. At that time, I was the sky above your head-but now, you are an actor and I am an investor. The world is so wonderful. Guess what the producers would think if I insisted on changing the cast of the second 'God's Salvation'?"

Jin Ran slightly widened her eyes.

After a long time, he squeezed out two words between his teeth: "Despicable."

The smile on Andre's lips became deeper: "Of course, I can't get you if I'm not mean."

After finishing speaking, the man blew badly into the black-haired young man's ear, then he straightened up, and then he patted Jinran's shoulder like a good buddy, and everyone standing around them The audible volume said with a nonchalant smile, "Look, I just made a joke and played a little prank, and I scared you so much—"

At this time, the Mandalorian producer standing aside blinked, and a relieved expression suddenly appeared on his face that had been dazed before: "My God, Andre, you and our rising Eastern Star Zhu know?"

Probably because Mandalore's adjectives were a bit exaggerated, Andre let out a hearty laugh, he turned his head and looked at the middle-aged man in front of him with flickering eyes: "Yes, yes, but he was my junior in high school— —At that time, there were not many international students who came to our school, and they were of different races... He was a man of the hour in our school. When he first transferred to the school, many people ran to the door of their classroom to see him—"

When Andre said this, he paused, and the corners of his lips curled up: "At that time, I was thinking that I must become friends with this oriental man - I didn't expect that he really became a friend with me later, very close, friend."

Every word of Andre seems to remind Jinran of those things that happened back then.

Along with his conversation with Mr. Mandello, Jin Ran's face became more and more ugly, and he wanted to walk away - but he could see warning elements in Andre's peripheral vision - as if warning him that if he dared to walk away , then the things that happened here today probably did not end so well—and this vile and unscrupulous person, if his nature has not changed in the slightest over the years, then this warning is not just a warning, look at it Doing it is a "forecast that may happen at any time", I am afraid it will be more accurate.

So Jinran had no choice but to stand where he was, listening with a cold face to the disgusting exchange of greetings between the person he hated the most in the world and his crew leader.

"Of course, Andre said, have you ever studied in Germany?"

"It's been a few months."

"Ah, looking at your performance, I thought it was your first visit to this country."

Facing Mandello's surprised gaze, Jinran smiled gently, before he could answer, he looked up and saw Andre grinning: "Later he ran back to the country without saying a word. Feeling very hurt, after all these years wondering if I did something wrong and ran away with my angel—”

I can't stop laughing.

But Mandello just felt that Andre had made an exaggerated joke.

Jinran could hardly restrain the urge to escape from this banquet hall immediately—breathing the air in the same space as Andremond, just thinking of this made him feel a surge of restraint in his chest. Unbearable disgust, really.

……

Fortunately, it didn't take long before the banquet started for half an hour, and the door of the banquet hall that was tightly closed was opened again—the guests who had received the invitation letters sent by the actors or the senior management of the crew entered one after another. The banquet hall, which was already very lively, became more lively than before because more people entered. This was undoubtedly a life-saving straw for Jinran, so from the moment the door opened, he He kept looking towards the door.

——Although he didn't think Jiang Chuan's appearance would have a good impact on the situation in front of him.

But as long as she thinks about seeing him, Jinran will feel a little more at ease in her heart.

Probably because the expression of anticipation on his face was too undisguised. At this moment, Andre, who finally dismissed the producer of Mandalorian with a few words, turned his head and noticed—frowning slightly, the amber pair For a moment, gloomy emotions flashed in the colored pupils, but he quickly restrained them perfectly, and asked in the relaxed tone at the beginning: "Who are you waiting for?"

"It has nothing to do with you," Jin Ran said coldly, "Can I go away if I have said enough? My friend will soon—"

"You still have friends? You never had friends before."

"Isn't that because of you—" At the moment when he heard Andre's words, Jin Ran's eyes flickered suddenly, and it seemed that there was a huge emotional fluctuation, but soon, such emotions seemed to be forced by him Suppressed, he lowered his eyes and said sadly, "Forget it."

Andre seemed to like that he remembered the past, and said with a sneer, "Go ahead."

Jin Ran gritted her teeth and shook her head, turned around forcibly and wanted to walk away from him——from the corner of her eyes, she saw a trace of displeasure flashing across the face of the tall man at a certain moment, and this expression made him almost like a conditioned reflex He wanted to run away with his legs, and he had already seen Andre raised his hand as if he was about to reach out to grab him——

It would be bad to be caught by him!

When this thought entered Jinran's mind, almost all the cells in his body were on alert mode. He turned his body slightly as if trying to avoid Andre's hand, but he didn't expect that at this time, from another direction Suddenly, a big warm hand reached out and directly clasped his wrist, dragging him back—that kind of force made him stagger, but it happened to make him avoid Andre capture.

Jinran's back bumped into a strong chest.

In the next second, he keenly felt the familiar and reassuring atmosphere enveloping him.

"what happened?"

A deep and magnetic male voice sounded at a close distance, and he heard his heart "bang" to the ground - he raised his head and looked at the man standing behind him. From his angle, he could see Jiang Chuan's The thin lips were pursed at an unpleasant angle, and the azure blue pupils reflected the silhouette of another blond gorilla.

From Jinran's angle, you can just see the man's perfectly curved jawline, as if it were a sculpture created by the top artist himself.

Jinran was stunned for a moment, this time, the nervousness in his eyes was gone, he didn't break away from Jiang Chuan's hand on his wrist, but leaned on his arms and turned slightly sideways, a little He happily asked the man behind him, "Why did you come here?"

"Just opened the door."

The man answered succinctly, but his eyes were looking at the golden retriever standing in front of them, who was slightly taller than him - although he was slightly inferior in height, when Jiang Chuan and Andre stood together However, the momentum of the former was not compared to the latter in the slightest. When he turned his head, he even saw the astonishment in Andre's seriousness.

……and many more.

stunned?

Jin Ran blinked, a little unresponsive, and when he turned back to look at Andre, he saw the pair of amber pupils on the other side. He didn't know if it was because of the lighting problem in the banquet hall that it had become thick and dark. With a heavy golden color, he stared at Jiang Chuan who held the black-haired young man firmly in his arms, paused, and said, "Lei Reid."

He called Jiang Chuan by his real name?

what's the situation?

Jinran felt a little dizzy, and turned to look at Jiang Chuan again—at this moment, the expression on the latter's face had already explained something: he and the golden retriever in front of him did know each other, and he didn't see how happy he was. Judging from their expressions, the relationship between the two may not be considered harmonious at all.

【Why are you here? ] Andre switched to German, asked quickly, and at the same time glanced at the black-haired young man, 【Why are you with him? 】【I'm happy to come. 】Jiang Chuan's tone was cold,【You still need to agree? 】Andre opened his mouth and smiled: 【Of course not, Master Reince. 】Jiang Chuan didn't seem happy to hear this address. His blue pupils flickered, but he didn't talk to him. He turned his head and dragged the young black-haired young man with an inexplicable face to walk away, but he didn't expect that at this time, An Andre said something in a moderate voice behind him——

[I don't know why you suddenly appeared here, and I don't know why you seem to be very interested in what belongs to me, but since it's you, I certainly don't have the ability to compete with you—just a little reminder, Leed, where God, you have had enough fun, remember to return him to me, I don't dislike it, after all, I have been waiting for 12 years. ] "..."

The man who was turning around paused, then lowered his eyes behind him, where no one could see. Those long and thick eyelashes covered all the emotions in the azure blue pupils.

He turned his head and spoke German quickly.

After hearing this, Andre was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed wantonly.

He walked up quickly, and before Jinran could react, he squeezed his chin: "It seems that you will not achieve nothing without me, you are much more powerful than I imagined."

Jin Ran stared at Andre, and when he had time to raise his hand to slap the opponent's paw away, he heard a crisp "pa" sound, someone had already done this before him, Jiang Chuan withdrew his hand, coldly Looking at the golden hair rubbing the back of his hand with a smile that was not a smile, he changed into English that Jin Ran could understand, and warned in a deep voice like a storm——

"Stay away from him."

I don't know that this sentence was said to Andre.

I still said it to Jinran.

Jinran only had time to reflexively ask "what" before being dragged away vigorously. He turned his head, and Andre was still standing there, waving at him with a smile on his face—but that never reached his eyes He was all too familiar with that smile, which was so cold that it seemed that the blood in a person's body could be frozen into ice.

Jinran felt that he had caused Jiang Chuan a lot of trouble.
