In the city [entertainment circle]

32

Li Ruosen waited for a few days, but did not receive any news from Ying Yujing. He thought it was Shen Xiao who had greeted him.

Since that day, Li Ruoyu has also disappeared, but he has been like this. Li Ruosen is not particularly worried. The only thing he cares about now is the meeting with the editor tomorrow.

After exchanging mobile phone numbers, Li Ruosen opened the contact tool and took a look. The editor's news was still last night. She said that she should be able to arrive this evening and meet tomorrow morning.

It sounds a little impatient.

Maybe it's because I finally sold the film and television rights?Li Ruosen couldn't help thinking.

Perhaps the coldest time has passed, and the temperature has suddenly returned these days. Li Ruosen didn't wear those down jackets anymore, but changed into the various coats he used to wear before.

And Shen Xiao still wore his sweatpants and sneakers, and only changed on set.

His assistant is still the fat life assistant that Li Ruosen often sees.

"Hey, Brother Li." Seeing Li Ruosen coming, the assistant named Zhou Fang greeted him. He didn't talk much, maybe it was because of this that he had worked beside Shen Xiao for many years.

"Have you always stayed by Teacher Shen's side?" When filming, Li Ruosen felt bored outside, so he would ask Zhou Fang.

Although Zhou Fang didn't talk much, he answered Li Ruosen's questions, perhaps because he asked about trivial matters.

"It's been many years." Zhou Fang poured some water into Li Ruosen's thermos. He was actually a little afraid of Li Ruosen at first. He is used to being cautious. Zhang Lin mentioned Li Ruosen to him several times. Let him pay attention to his identity.

After getting along for a few days, he found that Li Ruosen was not bad, except for the bodyguard next to him who was a little scary, he was still easy to talk to.

"Several years after Brother Shen made his debut, I followed him." He thought for a while, and said the name of a movie, "It was at this time that I was assigned to Brother Shen by the company."

Li Ruosen was curious about everything about Shen Xiao, he remembered that movie, Shen Xiao's rare commercial film, in which he played a policeman.

"Actually, he used to run the crew alone, whether he was popular or not." Zhou Fang sat on a plastic chair and said to Li Ruosen, "Brother Shen told me one thing before, when he was filming, I have lived in a haunted house for a long time. Because the place is not big, and there are few good hotels. It just so happens that there is a homestay for rent. The hotel is full and there is no place to arrange people. So I arranged him in that homestay. He said he was in the middle of the night When I got up to go to the toilet, I could always hear strange noises, and I was often pressed by ghosts in the middle of the night."

Li Ruosen found it inconceivable, he wanted to ask something, but saw Shen Xiao in costume walking over, "What are you talking about?"

Zhou conveniently repeated what he said.

Li Ruosen looked at Shen Xiao, "Is it true?"

"Of course it's true." Shen Xiao glanced at Li Ruosen's side, "Is Xiao Wu here today?"

"He has something to go out for a while." Li Ruosen said, he didn't ask Wu Tao why he went out, but he thought that he could only control the things Li Zhengying ordered.

"Ms. Shen really lived in a haunted house before?" Li Ruosen asked. Although he had written and heard stories, his understanding of the haunted house was only what was in the story.

Shen Xiao hummed, looked at Li Ruosen, "You want to know?"

Li Ruosen nodded honestly.

"Actually, it's nothing." Shen Xiao said, he had a folding chair he brought himself, and he could lie on it, because the chair was short, so he had to look up at Li Ruosen, "If you want to know, I can tell you."

"My hand is actually quite big." Shen Xiao stretched out his hand in front of Li Ruosen.

Li Ruosen didn't understand what it meant.

"Hand." Shen Xiao signaled Li Ruosen to reach out.

Li Ruosen put his hand on Shen Xiao's obediently.

Indeed, compared with Shen Xiao, Li Ruosen's hands are smaller.

"But when I woke up that day, I found a handprint on the bedside table. I gestured for that posture. It should have been left when I supported my body with my hands and looked at me."

"Do you know how big that hand is?"

Li Ruosen imagined that scene for a while, and felt horrified, "How did you find the fingerprints?"

"My bedside table has a black lacquer surface, and a little mark on it is very obvious. I made a special gesture to make sure that I would not support the bedside table like this when I went to bed." He suddenly stood up as if remembering something. Get up and walk in front of Li Ruosen.

There happened to be a table next to him.

"Like this, if you were lying down." Shen Xiao put his hands on the table, and leaned close to Li Ruosen, "I'm just looking at you like this."

"The next morning, I made a special gesture, and it was this posture."

Li Ruosen held his breath and looked at Shen Xiao's approaching face. In fact, there should be some ambiguous atmosphere at the moment, but Li Ruosen imagined the scene, and felt cold sweat protruding from his back.

He turned his face slightly, "And then?"

"Then I found that handprint, why is it so fat, it's a circle bigger than mine." Seeing that Li Ruosen was a little uncomfortable, Shen Xiao stood up straight again, "Later I asked the owner of the hotel, it used to be a It's a single-family house, but no one knew when the previous owner committed suicide, and in summer, the body slowly swelled and rotted."

"Afterwards, no one dared to buy this house for a long time, until he bought it and turned it into a homestay." He squatted down and looked at Li Ruosen, "Are you afraid?"

Li Ruosen looked at Shen Xiao. Due to the needs of the role, his beard hadn't been trimmed for a while, and there were some faint stubbles on his chin. He was dressed simply, but his exposed arms were full of muscles.

Maybe he should be afraid, Li Ruosen thought, he has not been able to listen to these stories, but at this moment, what he thought of was many years ago. Shen Xiao lived alone in a haunted homestay, and everyone else Another image of the hotel.

"...Are you afraid?" Li Ruosen asked after hesitating for a moment.

"Not afraid." Shen Xiao said, maybe he understood Li Ruosen's meaning, "It happened so many years ago." He sat next to Li Ruosen again, "I was not afraid of anything at that time."

Maybe it's because of the environment in which he grew up, Shen Xiao has never been very afraid of these things.The bad things he did were not too many, but they were not too few. To him, these were nothing.

Ghosts are still afraid of wicked people.

If there are ghosts in the world, and they can only do things that cost one life, he would like to see who can be more vicious than the other.

At the age of 25, Shen Xiao's thoughts were so simple.

Shen Xiao has always found it very strange why some people always think that he has no desires and desires. He has less than anyone else, so he wants more than anyone else.

If it was 12 years ago, or even earlier, Li Ruosen would not have ended well if he had met him.

Just like what he once said to Li Ruosen in the room, how could he dare to like him?Did he decide that he was a good man?

Still feel like I won't hurt him.

He felt that he was crueler than anyone else, because he had so few things.

He remembered that more than ten years ago, in that homestay, late at night, he heard many footsteps lingering outside his door, thinking that they were coming in.

He was thinking at the time, whether it was pretending to be a ghost or something special, as long as these things came in, he would let them go and never return.

It has been like this for several days. Naturally, there are dark circles under his eyes. The makeup artist complained, but he didn't give any explanation.

What's the use of saying it?No one will believe it.

It wasn't until the finale that the production crew finished filming and left that someone seemed to know from the local population that it was a haunted house, and there was a burst of yelling in the production crew.

A series of questions asked Shen Xiao if he had encountered any strange things.

Shen Xiao remembered that he just said that he always heard strange footsteps at night.

No matter how much I have never said, in the final analysis, those people don't really care, so why let yourself be the material for others to hunt for novelties.

After so many years, Shen Xiao's personality has also changed and changed. It was not until almost 12 years later that someone finally asked him if he was afraid at the time.

So what is this?Shen Xiao couldn't help thinking, did he finally meet the right thing at the right time?

Shen Xiao thought, what would have happened if they had met 12 years ago, at that time he would not have been like he is now.

But more radical.

At that time, he naturally hated this kind of son brother who had no worries about food and clothing, or had a good family background.

Shen Xiao has never understood why Zhang Lin feels that he is about to become a monk, or rather, he has never understood why some people always think that he has no desires or desires.

He obviously wants too much, but is afraid of losing, so he doesn't want anything except what he can firmly grasp.

Shen Xiao turned to look at Li Ruosen beside him. He was wearing his usual overcoat. Because the weather was a little warmer, he was wearing a round neck sweater with black pants and boots underneath.

He has fair skin, and on his wrist is the watch he often wears, other than that, there are no decorations.

No matter how you look at it, she looks pampered and well protected.

Shen Xiao is now a little thankful to Li Zhengying, otherwise maybe he will really meet the Shen Xiao back then.

Because what he didn't tell Li Ruosen was that in that crew, the character he played was called——

Lin San.

He played the role 12 years ago, and the movie didn't come out until two years later.

So it was difficult for him to make an objective judgment on Lin San's role.

When he watched the dark circles under his own eyes playing Lin San in the movie, he couldn't help recalling everything at that time.

His poor mental state was almost unreservedly seen by film critics.

"Fortunately, it's over." Li Ruosen whispered beside him after hearing his answer.

That's right, Shen Xiao thought, fortunately it's all over.
