Chapter 29 Is it really the 21st century?

Pei Shan pushed Shi Pei into the house.

Shi Pei was still worried, and walked into the house again and again, looking back at the color block all the time.

"Don't read it, I'm going to draw the curtains. It's easy to dry." Pei Shan said and handed the book to Shi Pei, "Here, the script, let's discuss how to change it."

Only then did Shi Pei turn his attention to the stack of papers.

Before flipping through two pages, Shi Pei began to click his tongue: "No wonder Mr. Shen always praised you for having a good sense of age."

Pei Shan didn't speak, and sorted out the scattered books in the bookshelf.

"Actually, period dramas are not very flattering." Pei Shan said while tidying up, "To be honest, I think this is quite risky."

"Adventure" refers to the attendance rate, but Shi Pei thought he was talking about the stage presentation effect: "That's right. These scenes have high requirements for stage design. I have to see the theater in advance, and then ask a friend to come up with an effect." picture."

Pei Shan shook his head, "I'm not talking about that. I'm saying that your investment may not be directly proportional to the return it gives you."

"Hey——" Shi Pei continued to pretend to be stupid, "Shanshan, don't you know what I am like? Don't think too much about it. This story is good, and naturally someone is willing to read it. No matter what the subject matter is, how much it costs, who will do it?" I only think about making money in this business. If I want to make money, I won’t resign.”

Pei Shan smiled and said, "Are you quite proud of resigning?"

"Don't be proud, my daughter-in-law-to-be is about to fly away." Shi Pei half-jokingly said.

The two finished the book talking and laughing, the sun had already risen overhead, Pei Shan wanted to open the door to get some air.

Cicada was tirelessly making noise. As soon as he opened the door, he could hear cicadas mixed with the tinkling of bicycle bells.

"I'll take you to eat some light food at noon. I always eat hot pot. My stomach can't stand it."

Pei Shan locked the door as he said, and waited for a long time but didn't get an answer, so he turned towards Shi Pei's direction and saw him standing outside the door with a dark face and gritted teeth.

"What's the matter?" Pei Shan asked, following Shi Pei's gaze, looking at the glass door——

Scarier red than it was in the morning, it flowed from the top of the door frame to the bottom and overflowed through the crack of the door.

Next to this large, shocking mark, the strokes of the brush are also evident.Distorted and naive fonts covered the facade.

"San'er", "going through the back door", "abnormal", "being stabbed to death", "climbing on the bed"...

Pei Shan narrowed his eyes and looked up and down the words.

It would be a lie to say that you are not angry.Pei Shan clenched his fists unconsciously, his knuckles creaked and turned white.

Taking a deep breath, Pei Shan finally recovered his breathing.However, when I was panting for breath, I could still hear those whispers—those who named names, those who spoke vaguely, and those who pointed and cursed, muttered softly.

He didn't care about these things.After all, one mouth can make money, but the root cause cannot be found.

But at this moment, Pei Shan suddenly didn't want to bear it anymore. He had never been so bored with anything.At this moment, he even thought that it would be good to tear his face apart like this.The people who have to wait have already waited, so why bear it.

Pei Shan took a few steps back, printed those insulting words in his eyes verbatim, then turned around and said to the bustling street: "So, no one saw the perpetrator, right?"

The crowd was buzzing like bees for a long time, but when this sentence came out, they fell silent.

No one pays attention to him.

Although this bookstore brought a lot of gossip to the vegetable market, it was just a gossip.No one will care what the cause and effect of this gossip is.A target is enough.

Shi Pei couldn't bear to watch from the sidelines, and rushed towards the crowd cursing, but was stopped by Pei Shan.

"There is no surveillance on this street." Pei Shan said, "I'll go ask the store across the street."

When Pei Shan walked over, the shop owner gave him a friendly smile, and then closed the shop door behind his back.

Pei Shan was dazed by the sudden airflow, and stood at the door of the store for a long time, but in the end he couldn't say anything, he could only forced a wry smile.

Back at the bookstore, Pei Shan seemed to be a different person, sitting on the sofa blankly.

Shi Pei didn't dare to disturb, so he could only take a bucket of clean water from the sink and pour some cleaning agent Tang Liyan brought.

The rag was thrown into the water with a snap.

"Don't be busy." Pei Shan said suddenly, his voice was flat, machine-like, with a rustling ending, "I guess there will be more tomorrow."

Shi Pei swung his hand in the water twice, "Shan Shan, who did you offend?"

"I do not know."

"Then why is this happening all of a sudden?"

"I do not know."

Pei Shan kept repeating this sentence.He really didn't know when he became that dissolute and depraved person in Yancheng's population.

Are you haunting alleys at midnight just because you know how to put on makeup?

Just because you like men, do you live in isolation?

Pei Shan sighed, "To be honest, sometimes I doubt that I am really living in the 21st century? I often think that I am living in 80 years ago."

This place is so closed off.There is only one main road leading to the outside world around the city. It has the hottest summer swimming festival and the most frequent rainstorms. Terraces and slopes are its symbols.Coconuts are cheap and the fruit is weighed by the kilo.People are respectful on the surface, greet you with a smile, chat with you, add green onions to your vegetable basket, and pay half an hour's price for a fraction.

But you still feel, so depressed, so scary, so alone.

Originally he thought it would be fine.Unexpectedly, this is the case every century.

Even though Tang Liyan had clarified many things for him that day, people still didn't want to believe it.After all, a ridiculous story is more attractive than a rumor spread by a brat.

Shi Pei turned off the faucet, sat back next to Pei Shan, and asked, "Actually, I've always wanted to ask you—"

Pei Shan raised his head and blinked.

"Other words, I know what they mean. But why did they call you..."

Saner.

Shi Pei didn't say this word out of sympathy, but Pei Shan understood.

For a while, Pei Shan couldn't control his gradually disappointed expression—look, three people become tigers, the ancients do not deceive me.Even the closest friends are inevitably affected by these gossip.

But Pei Shan knew that Shi Pei was just asking kindly and had no other meaning, so he didn't shy away, "I really don't know. Maybe, they thought in their hearts that I was slept by all the rich people in Yancheng." .” Pei Shan smiled self-deprecatingly, “After all, those people have families and children.”

After hearing this, Shi Pei frowned, "Why did you make yourself—"

That's all for now.Pei Shan also didn't know whether to thank him for finally learning to "watch words and emotions", or to be angry with him for being soft-hearted.

"Shanshan, I think their direction is very obvious." Shi Pei sighed, "And this time it is so intense, it must be something that happened recently. Think about it, have you done something to make others misunderstand ?”

Pei Shan had already lost his patience due to this mess. Hearing this sentence, he subconsciously thought that Shi Pei was alluding to him that "no wind, no waves".Just about to refute something, he suddenly stopped.

"Wait a minute..." Pei Shan stared blankly at a spot of light on the wall, "I remembered something..."

"What? Shanshan, if you think of it, call the police immediately. I will make trouble for you every day!"

Pei Shan's eyes gradually gained focus, and his tone became calm, "I seem to know who it is."
