Euthanasia

"Xiao Yang said that she is a DINK." Liu Zhiwei said.

Yang Peng said: "Now it is, but my sister does have a child. Sun Shuopeng married my sister because he has so many women. Only my sister was pregnant and gave birth to the child."

Liu Zhiwei said, "What about the others?"

"It's either contraception or miscarriage." Yang Peng put his hands on his knees and said gloomily, "My family's conditions are not good. My sister helped my parents to work for me in high school. I missed my sister at the time." Where did the money come from? She said that coming to a big city makes a lot of money. My sister has always been sensible and knowledgeable, but one day I suddenly laughed at her for gaining weight. She reacted very strongly, and I noticed it. She was just 16 years old I accompanied her to do the abortion."

Liu Zhiwei took a drag on his cigarette, shook the ashes with his fingertips, and still looked ahead.

"I thought my sister was going to sell it," Yang Peng said, "I was really an asshole at that time."

Yang Peng lowered his head and looked at his fingertips: "She is really paid for her serious work. She works several jobs every day, works from beginning to end, and even scrapes together the money for her own education. I am used to them. , I never felt how hard she was, and because of her abortion, she was called cheap..."

Liu Zhiwei said: "It is difficult for everyone."

Yang Peng nodded: "My sister earned more in the next year, and I didn't see her often. I didn't expect that she would give birth to a son a year later. No one in the family was by her side when she gave birth. I don’t even know how she came here. She became a well-known local makeup artist, and brides love to ask her for makeup, but her parents have some opinions when she doesn’t go home, and I also miss it very much, so I took the initiative to see her once.

"She was very thin at that time, but she was very thin just after giving birth, and she was still working every day to take care of the child. I asked where the child came from, but she didn't tell me," Yang Peng said, "I scolded her for not cherishing herself, so she took it with her. Bastard... I'm really an asshole."

Yang Peng scolded himself again.

Liu Zhiwei took a puff of smoke and said, "Go ahead."

Yang Peng said: "I later found out that my sister didn't do it voluntarily. When she was working, there was a crew shooting a film near her. There was a lack of a make-up artist, and the salary was quite high, so she went. One foot into the fire pit. "

"That child belongs to Sun Shuopeng. You must know him." Yang Peng glanced at Liu Zhiwei and said, "She followed Sun Shuopeng all the time because Sun Shuopeng said he would marry her in the future. As a result, the more my sister followed him, the more painful it was. Sun Shuopeng travels back and forth every year, getting involved with countless girls. My sister was still young at that time and did not leave him immediately. After marrying Sun Shuopeng, her financial conditions improved and she recommended me many good jobs, but I looked at her It got depressed day by day. I think she really realized that Sun Shuopeng was a beast at that time. She wanted to divorce Sun Shuopeng, but Sun Shuopeng detained her son.

"I wanted to enter the fashion industry because my sister was too tired, and I wanted to help her in this field, but my sister tried to persuade her in every possible way. I only tried to get in a few years ago. I didn't expect that my sister stayed there not because it was easy to make money. It's not because of ideals or anything," Yang Peng's expression was dull, "She wants to get her son back, and she also wants to expose Sun Shuopeng's true colors. After I know it, I try to persuade her to stay away from that person, but it's useless."

Yang Peng wiped his face: "Her husband is Qian Youqian now. She sometimes helps them do something to gain their trust. She collects the things they asked her to do as evidence. I don't know what she is doing now. It's gotten so far, but I can't watch her sink deeper and deeper.

"She has given up on herself for revenge." Yang Peng said, "I have been working in Fengxing for so long, and I have caught very little evidence, even less to help her, and sometimes I can't even do it. I checked There are many things, but there is no evidence, and their network makes it impossible for people with interests to come forward and report them."

Liu Zhiwei's cigarette burned out, he stubbed out the cigarette butt, and asked, "Does your sister know that you are helping her?"

Yang Peng said: "She doesn't know. If I tell her, she will drive me away immediately. I lied to her. I just want to see big stars up close. I have been in Fengxing for a few years, and I also checked something. I know you're one of the victims, and the only one who didn't get caught up in their net and get angry."

Liu Zhiwei was silent for a while, and asked: "Then do you know what happened on my set some time ago?"

Yang Peng's expression collapsed. "...I saw the news."

"I used to think that it was just my bad luck," Liu Zhiwei said lightly, "everyone's life goes wrong. If I blame all the encounters I have encountered in the past on others' targeting of me, my life will be in danger. Will live in a world full of doubts and shadows. I'd rather tell myself it's just a few bumps before I find the evidence.

"But what I learned a few days ago and what you said today made me have to face up to the fact that I have never escaped from their net."

Yang Peng frowned: "...know what?"

"Someone changed my props," Liu Zhiwei said. "That person was a member of the props team, but someone else deleted the video of him changing props, and that person was Xiao Yang."

Yang Peng stood up abruptly: "Brother Zhiwei, that's..."

Liu Zhiwei stopped him: "I know what that is for. I also know that Xiao Yang has a child. I happened to meet him before. You made me sure."

Yang Peng looked at Liu Zhiwei dully.

"I know she didn't do it, and she obediently took the risk to delete the video just to continue to gain their trust." Liu Zhiwei patted his pants and stood up, saying, "She is a good mother, but I can't save her. "

Yang Peng stood up anxiously.

"Until she comes out on her own and is willing to tell me everything, no one can save her." Liu Zhiwei said lightly, "I know, because I have never come out before."

After Liu Zhiwei finished speaking, he threw the cigarette butts into the trash can beside him, opened the door and returned to the private room.When he returned to the private room, there was a gentle and relaxing smile on his face. In Yang Peng's eyes, it was like his sister always had a vibrant smile in front of people.

Yang Peng stood outside for a while, then walked in.

It was completely dark after dinner.Liu Zhiwei drove Pei Ze home.Xiao Lu got into Xu Ting's car, made wishes with the Yang family siblings and Xu Ting, and left talking and laughing.

Sitting in the car, Pei Ze asked, "What did you say to Yang Peng when you went out? Why is Yang Peng's expression sombre after you came back?"

Liu Zhiwei smiled and said: "Talked with him about the difficulties in professional life."

Pei Ze said with emotion: "Yeah, this business looks very glamorous, and no one knows the hard work behind it. That boy group, many people say it's selling face, but selling face and selling meat It’s hard, okay! If you’re not skilled in business, no one will follow you..."

Liu Zhiwei laughed with a "puchi" and said, "I think you enjoyed it quite a bit."

Pei Ze blushed a bit: "Hey, you know, to be honest, my face is like a vase in China, and some people will say that I rely on my face when I act. In fact, the way to play is quite narrow, and many people say I'm a bitch. The current boy group, to be honest, quite fits my position, at least I have made the best use of everything... Now I stand on this position from the beginning, and fans like and accept my position. Whether it is acting or singing, they It’s a new way to understand what I’m doing for my career, rather than judging the value of my other work based on how I look...I think it’s good.”

Liu Zhiwei let out a sigh of relief and said, "I also feel pretty good."

Pei Ze got out of the car in the middle of the trip. He lives in the artist's apartment in Jinguang, and the security situation is also very good.Liu Zhiwei put him down and drove back alone.

The car lights and street lamps on the road passed his face one by one, and he seemed to be walking through a long and unreal tunnel.

When alone, the smile on Liu Zhiwei's face disappeared.He played a random song and thought about something in his solitary space.

He knew he wasn't completely alone, the dash cam next to his head would record his appearance, and a foreign man on the other side of the network might be watching him, but he didn't care.He didn't feel the slightest bit unhappy or uncomfortable.

"Jon, are you watching?" Liu Zhiwei didn't look at the camera above, but he said so suddenly.

Of course, the other party did not respond, because the driving recorder does not have a call function.

Jon, who was sitting in front of the screen, heard Liu Zhiwei speak, and subconsciously said, "I'm here."

Liu Zhiwei drove home at a slow pace, and the yellow lights illuminated and darkened his face again and again.He said, "Can I advance the bedtime story? I want to tell you that."

Jon froze for a moment, then enlarged Liu Zhiwei's screen.He knew that Liu Zhiwei couldn't hear his own voice, but he still said to the screen: "Say it, baby."

"I met Xiao Yang and her younger brother today. Her younger brother told me many things," Liu Zhiwei said, "I told him that if Xiao Yang didn't take the initiative to tell others, it means she hasn't come out yet. .No one can help her. Then I found out that the one who has not come out is also me.”

Jon pursed his lips and looked at Liu Zhiwei in the video.

Liu Zhiwei said: "I don't know if I will have the courage to tell you all this after I go back, and I don't know if you are there watching, but now may be my only chance to say it, I hope you are not there, and I hope you Look out there. You know, I'm too scared to tell anyone that I'm gay, so I haven't told anyone else about it."

Jon called out "Zeo" in a low voice.

"I don't know what others will think of me, because when this society thinks that victims in rape cases are also responsible, victims will uncontrollably doubt themselves, doubt the necessity of their own existence, and dare not tell others about the harm they have suffered. .”

Liu Zhiwei's voice was very low, as if deliberately suppressed, but Jon could hear a tremor.

"Jon, I am a victim of sexual assault."

Jon's eyes widened, and his jaw protruded from the occlusion of his teeth.

"That was when I was 15 years old, the person who raped me was my mentor, and the person who sent me to him was my first love - I told you that." Liu Zhiwei covered himself with one hand forehead, restraining his emotions, "My mentor—that's a beast with pedophilic tendencies."
