business couple dancing

For a long time, neither of them spoke.

Lu Xiumu turned his head sideways, fingered the back of his neck, felt the fast beating pulse, closed his eyes again, and waited in the dark for the unusual restlessness to subside.

His thinking nerves are numb.

Lu Xiumu dimly realized that the state between him and Qiu Xingfeng had changed, not at this moment, but since a long time ago, there were signs of change, which caused their recent relationship to be a little ambiguous, and then the relationship between them was unclear. At a certain moment, it swelled to the peak and overflowed.

"Teacher Qiu..." Lu Xiumu didn't want to appear too overwhelmed, "Did the shooting of group B go well?"

"It's okay." Qiu Xingfeng said, "It's just that the food was too light, so I pulled you out for extra meals."

The crew chose this kind of remote mountainous area, and they were destined to say goodbye to takeaway box lunches, basically what the villagers ate and they ate.There is not much meat and fish, and the oil and water are light, and everyone in the crew has more or less lost their reputation.

"The raw sweet potatoes I asked for from the fellow villagers sat in the stove all afternoon." Qiu Xingfeng handed him the sweet potatoes, "Taste it."

Lu Xiumu looked at the sweet potato, then at his hands, and wanted to say "I didn't wash my hands when I came here", but in the next second, I felt something soft and soft on my lips.

Qiu Xingfeng's voice was close to his ears, and he said, "Don't touch it, your skin is dirty."

Lu Xiumu didn't regain his composure, and subconsciously opened his mouth.

"It shouldn't be hot." Qiu Xingfeng asked again.

Lu Xiumu pursed his lips and nodded: "It's quite sweet."

"Then you should eat more." Qiu Xingfeng smiled again, without stopping the movement of his hands, "You just happen to be a sweet tooth."

"?" A huge question mark appeared on Lu Xiumu's head, "I didn't even know I had this hobby..."

"Don't deny it. Eat strawberries and mangoes with yogurt, how can you not like sweets?"

Lu Xiumu narrowed his eyes and recalled his eating habits, and found that it was indeed sweet, but to control his weight, he didn't eat too much every time, and he never thought about that.Now being awakened by Qiu Xingfeng, I can't help but feel novel: "You know me quite well——"

His voice was weak, but his heart was beating like a drum.

For too long, Lu Xiumu couldn't trace back exactly when he said this to Qiu Xingfeng, but the other person kept the irrelevant "nonsense" in his heart.

"What's wrong?" Qiu Xingfeng asked.

Lu Xiumu shook his head: "It's just that I didn't expect that you would violate Director Jiang's rules for a piece of roasted sweet potatoes."

"It's for you." Qiu Xingfeng corrected.

Lu Xiumu: "???"

Qiu Xingfeng said: "There are no roasted sweet potatoes, but there will also be roasted pumpkins and roasted potatoes. These are my excuses—"

He paused, looked at Lu Xiumu: "I want to see your excuse."

It's hard to really describe the feeling at this time, Lu Xiumu was stunned for two seconds: "See me?"

"Entrusted by someone." Qiu Xingfeng said, "Gao Xin heard that you are in poor condition recently, so I must help you."

For a moment, the abnormal heartbeat sank to the bottom.Lu Xiumu lowered his eyes and thought, oh, it turned out that he was just doing "psychological counseling"...

"I'm fine." Lu Xiumu's thoughts froze, he hated Qiu Xingfeng from the bottom of his heart because of this incident, and he didn't even want to admit that he was affected by the drama, "Gao Xin likes to exaggerate, don't worry about him .”

Qiu Xingfeng didn't respond immediately, but tore a small piece of sweet potato and handed it to Lu Xiumu's mouth.After the other party swallowed, he said: "Didn't you get too deep into the drama?"

Lu Xiumu's eyelids twitched, and the fingers hanging by his sides also clenched into fists.For a second he almost said something, but finally just shook his head.

Qiu Xingfeng's eyes stayed on his face for a while longer: "Can you still distinguish the line between yourself and Xiaosu?"

"..." Lu Xiumu didn't raise his eyes, "Yes."

Qiu Xingfeng laughed, and the deep laughter stretched its tail in the quiet night.

Inexplicably, Lu Xiumu felt that this smile was not the comfort of being pleased, but a short-lived mockery that could not be ignored.

"What are you laughing at?" Lu Xiumu was dissatisfied.

"It's nothing." Qiu Xingfeng said indifferently, "Two days ago, I heard from the executive assistant director that your team is progressing very fast, Meng Ting has already entered the play, and I think you should do the same."

Lu Xiumu frowned immediately: "Why should I be like her."

Qiu Xingfeng shrugged his shoulders, and said it as it should be: "Director Jiang has personally 'taught' you into acting, and there are still mistakes? Besides, you are siblings, so it's normal to have a certain aspect in common."

This sentence did not know which nerve touched Lu Xiumu, he suddenly pushed Qiu Xingfeng fiercely, and slapped the sweet potato off his hand.

The steaming sweet potatoes split apart in an instant, and the golden flesh was covered with soil.

And this unexpected action made Lu Xiumu freeze suddenly, he stared blankly at the mess on the ground, he couldn't believe what he did: "I—"

Qiu Xingfeng didn't say anything, he picked up the dirty sweet potatoes slowly, and threw them into the waste bin not far away.

Lu Xiumu looked at him silently, that fragile nerve thread became more and more tense.He asked almost as if finding fault: "What are you picking it up for? You don't have the problem of cleanliness anymore!"

The tone was very bad.

Qiu Xingfeng acted as if he had never heard of it, and automatically filtered his words, as if he wanted to use actions to force Lu Xiumu to explode completely.

Lu Xiumu did as he expected, rushed forward extremely abnormally, raised his elbow to beat Qiu Xingfeng, but was hugged.

Carefully and cautiously paying attention to his emotions, Qiu Xingfeng slowly tightened his arms, and said softly, "Teacher Lu, I am Qiu Xingfeng, not Qi Yuan."

"..."

"Don't spread your resentment towards him on me, or I will be too wronged." Qiu Xingfeng's voice was reassuringly gentle, "I know you are suffering, don't resist me, let me help you once? "

Lu Xiumu's heart trembled violently, and the end of his eyes was inexplicably blush.He felt like he was going crazy, as if there were two souls living in his body, tearing his sanity apart every day.

If there is a moment of relaxation, the silk cocoon named "Little Su" will become tighter and tighter like an inch, eating away the body that belongs to Lu Xiumu little by little.

Lu Xiumu pressed his head against his shoulder: "How can I help? You are not a doctor—"

"But I can tell at a glance that you are abnormal." Qiu Xingfeng said, "The teacher Lu I know is simple and straightforward. He will say anything directly, and he will never insist on denying that he was not in the play."

Lu Xiumu took a step back slightly, and the idea of ​​"continuing to pretend" was completely dissipated.He was a little discouraged, and he laughed at himself: "...I didn't even know that I had changed so much."

Qiu Xingfeng did not deny his statement: "It's a normal phenomenon. If you haven't been affected by Xiao Su, I'm afraid Jiang Bing is crazy. But I really didn't expect your reaction to be so big. Logically speaking, during the filming, the actor There will always be some behaviors that are 'assimilated' by the characters. This is something that everyone knows. But you give me a feeling of trying to resist Xiao Su, just like..."

He lowered his eyes and looked at him: "You are very unwilling to accept that Xiao Su left marks on you. Why?"

Lu Xiumu's lips were drawn into a line, and it took a long time before he said, "I don't like this character."

He thought that Qiu Xingfeng would not hold on to this point after saying this, but he didn't expect Qiu Xingfeng to keep asking: "Why don't you like it?"

"..." Lu Xiumu held back his anger, "I just don't like it."

This is already a rather perfunctory excuse, and it is also a clear signal that "I don't want to talk more". However, Qiu Xingfeng didn't seem to understand, and asked: "The role of Xiao Su has a strong sense of hierarchy, and it should be the role that all actors yearn for." Why are you not likable when you come here? Do you want to be the No.1 of "Sword Walking Off the Front"?"

"...No." Lu Xiumu's voice was so soft that he could hardly catch it, "He and I... are too similar."

These words seemed to be the key to unlocking the topic that had been buried for a long time. Lu Xiumu was forced to a critical point and admitted the thing he least wanted to admit in the "desperate situation".

Lu Xiumu said: "It's not about personality, it's about experience. My dad used to be like Sister Su. He was affected by illness for several years, and his temper became more and more paranoid. Su married Qi Yuan, and he forced me to do many things that I didn't want to do."

At that time, Lu's father was affected by pheromones, and often made inexplicable "finding faults" behaviors.Whatever Lu Xiumu wanted to do, he would sing the opposite, as if he could gain some pleasure by "destroying" others.

Lu Xiumu could bear it at first, but as the number of times increased, the little warmth that was originally there was completely wiped out, and coupled with the exhausting training of the trainees, he would unconsciously "ignore" Lu's father's request.

"After he left, I asked myself more than once in my heart, were those requests really hard to do? Why didn't I give him more attention. Then every time I thought about it, I started watching those shits that were useless Chicken soup for the soul, remind yourself repeatedly not to indulge in the past."

When he said this, he stopped talking suddenly.

In those few years, Lu Xiumu used all the methods he could think of to get rid of "Once", but unexpectedly, his life fell into a strange circle, and he was pulled back into the state of "self-loathing" by Xiao Su.

"It's not Xiao Su that I'm against," Lu Xiumu said with a wry smile, "It's my former self."

Qiu Xingfeng didn't speak.Birth, old age, sickness and death are compulsory courses in life. He and Lu Xiumu did not have the same experience, so it is difficult to say a few words of "it has nothing to do with him" to remind him that "it is all over".

There was a moment of silence between the two, and after a while Qiu Xingfeng asked, "What's wrong with Uncle?"

Lu Xiumu looked at the dark sky in the distance, and seemed to be a little distracted: "Pheromone disorder."

Qiu Xingfeng was startled, and his eyes immediately fell on his face.

"What?" Lu Xiumu noticed that his expression was different.

"I—" Qiu Xingfeng thought about his words, "I happen to know a lot about this disease. Actually—"

Lu Xiumu didn't wait for him to finish: "You understand? The awareness of this disease is not high."

"Maybe I'm 'lucky' to suffer from this disease too."

This time it was Lu Xiumu's turn to be dazed, but Qiu Xingfeng didn't give him much time to think: "If it were anything else, what I said next might be somewhat nonsense, but—"

The corners of his lips curled into a slight arc: "Mr. Lu, since you have a deep understanding of disorder, you should know that the public's awareness of it is still in the infancy stage, so in the process, there must be someone who will become" Pioneer'. It cost a lot, and it's not your fault, nor uncle's fault, it's the most normal phenomenon."

"To put it more artistically, we are all small and ordinary individuals in the course of history. No matter how upset you are, or how much you try to change the past, it will not help." Qiu Xingfeng said softly, "Give yourself a relief, and give Xiao Su a Relief. The same experience does not mean that what happened before will happen again. You are not the same as Xiao Su, at least from my point of view, he is far from you. He feels guilty and sympathetic towards Sister Su, but And won't stop for anyone."

Lu Xiumu: "..."

"Even if it's for me, can you work harder?" Qiu Xingfeng rubbed his hair, "Give me back my Teacher Lu when I'm off-screen."

Lu Xiumu was completely stunned, Qiu Xingfeng's words were too familiar.The Dandelion he imagined overlaps with the real Qiu Xingfeng in front of him at this moment, without any deviation.

At this time, the small field manager hurried over from a distance: "Teacher Qiu, Teacher Lu, you are here! Director Jiang is looking for you."

Qiu Xingfeng muttered, "Why does he mess up so many things all day long?" Although he was complaining, he still followed Xiaochang Wu to the village.

"Qiu..." Lu Xiumu looked at his back, opened his mouth, and accidentally called out the name buried in his heart: "Dandelion."

Qiu Xingfeng's figure paused, and he turned his head slowly in surprise: "...Call me?"

The soft moonlight fell on the two of them, and the two slender shadows stretched infinitely towards each other, as if a pair of invisible hands were drawing them closer.

Chapter 30 Breaking out of the cocoon I know that everyone is looking forward to "losing the horse", but if the horse is lost now, the wedding banquet will not be able to continue filming, the actor will be full of "Mr. Lu likes me too", and then he will be like a flower Like a peacock opening its tail every day.

Lu Xiumu's long and narrow eyelashes trembled slightly, and his throat also rolled a few times.His brain has been shut down, and his limbs are all based on instinct. He took a step towards Qiu Xingfeng.

"Why did you suddenly call me my WeChat nickname?" Qiu Xingfeng also took a step back, "I almost didn't realize it."

Lu Xiumu raised his eyes and stared at him. He could see the small smiles in the other's eyes and his own dark panic. The thin water vapor coated Qiu Xingfeng's eyes with a vague gleam.

Nervousness, anticipation, joy, and even a little bit of loss that is afraid of guessing wrong, all kinds of emotions are like scattered roots of old trees, intertwined layer upon layer.

Lu Xiumu was completely speechless, his fingers curled tightly together.

He didn't know where to start...

Do you want to ask Qiu Xingfeng cryptically if his disorder has been cured, or ask him bluntly, has he ever received pheromone soothing treatment?

Or in order not to be so obtrusive, first explain that you are a volunteer, and then start with the hospital where Nie Yao works?

In an instant, Lu Xiumu's thoughts turned seventy or eighty times, and he even imagined Qiu Xingfeng's tiny expression.Unfortunately, reality did not give him this opportunity.

Xiaochangwu directly lay between them, interrupting their gaze.

"Teachers, please do me a favor!" Xiao Changwu clasped his hands together and bowed to the two respectively, "Let's talk later if you have anything to say, if you don't go back, Director Jiang will kill someone!"

If people's resentment could be visualized, then two gray clouds had already appeared on Lu Xiumu's head at this moment.The most important thing buried in the bottom of my heart is about to break out of the ground, and the feeling of being suppressed by the blind guy is not good, and it is very angry.

Lu Xiumu puffed up his cheeks, and glared aggressively at the small field manager who lacked vision.

He also knew that he shouldn't have joined the crew, and the chief director's request was like a "sacred decree". He needed to get rid of distracting thoughts and complete the filming without distraction.

But at this time, it was difficult for Lu Xiumu to be impartial.

Qiu Xingfeng didn't have as many twists and turns in his mind, and he calmly looked away: "Okay, I won't make things difficult for you. Let's go."

Lu Xiumu opened his lips slightly, blinked, and then his gaze dropped to the ground.

Maybe it was because the light was too dark, but Xiaochang Wu always felt that Lu Xiumu's expression showed loss and slight shock.It seems that he did not expect that Qiu Xingfeng would "easily" give up the questioning.

Xiaochangwu got stuck, Zhang Dayan wanted to observe Lu Xiumu's expression again, but found that the other party had returned to normal.He shook his head, quickly suppressed the messy thoughts in his heart, and dragged Lu Xiumu to run to the village.

A few minutes later, Lu Xiumu returned to the "Su family" again.

Jiang Bing's face had turned black into charcoal, and after thinking about it for a while, he knew that Lu Xiumu's sudden "disappearance" was definitely related to Qiu Xingfeng.To be honest, he didn't expect Yingdi Qiu to obey the rules, but he never expected that Lu Xiumu would follow suit.

"Who are you showing your ugly face to?" Qiu Xingfeng preempted the attack as soon as he entered the door, "I have a heart-to-heart with Mr. Lu, but you still have to intervene."

Jiang Bing was stunned. Qiu Xingfeng's calm expression of "the villain sues first" was too powerful, causing him to hold back all the "swearing" that he had accumulated in his stomach.

In line with the concept of "losing is not losing", he pointed at the noses of the two and cursed: "You still have the face to come back?! Did I say, don't--"

Qiu Xingfeng didn't wait for him to finish speaking, and walked out with his arms around Lu Xiumu's shoulders: "We really don't have the face to see you, so let's go first, so as not to make you angry."

Jiang Bing's facial muscles twitched violently: "Come back! I have something to say!"

Qiu Xingfeng stopped in his tracks: "It's better to talk about the business earlier, if you insist on giving me a chance to piss you off, those who don't know will think that the famous director has a tendency to masochistic."

Jiang Bing was dumbfounded, and the surrounding staff let out a chuckle.

"What are you laughing at?!" Jiang Bing immediately turned around, "If you want to laugh at me, you must have the strength of a movie king!"

This is purely venting anger, but it is undeniable that Jiang Daoxin is really tired. Fortunately, this is the last cooperation between him and Qiu Xingfeng, otherwise this bastard would really die.

But after thinking about it again, the three cooperations between him and Qiu Xingfeng can be regarded as a "mutual torture", and it is also an achievement for each other.

Whether "The Wedding Banquet" succeeds or fails, it will be the full stop between them.

Jiang Bing was inexplicably sad, and also a little regretful that he was "not able to do what he wanted". He couldn't help asking himself, could it be that Qiu Xingfeng really hit the mark, he is essentially a masochist?

"What happened?" Qiu Xingfeng asked.

Jiang Bing was caught in the sorrow of spring and autumn and didn't pull back his thoughts for a while. Chu Mengting first explained for him: "There is a problem with some circuits in the village, and the B group will not be able to get electricity tonight. The rooms without electric heaters can't live in people. Director Jiang said to let everyone squeeze together and make do for one night."

"No wonder the street lights at the entrance of the village suddenly went out." Qiu Xingfeng said.

His voice was very soft, like a vague emotion, and the others didn't take it seriously, but it had some other meanings in Lu Xiumu's ears.

Regardless of whether Qiu Xingfeng mentioned it intentionally or not, Lu Xiumu would inevitably think of the throbbing that was about to burst through his chest in the dark.

The incident happened suddenly and without warning, and Lu Xiumu's state at the time did not allow him to think carefully about the meaning behind Qiu Xingfeng's actions, but now he is given an excellent opportunity.

He still remembered all his non-resisting reactions, and even wanted to accept Qiu Xingfeng's intimacy with the tacit idea.It's like the turbulent waves under the calm sea, it may be blocked for a while, but there will always be that moment when it comes.

It is hard to restrain oneself, it is fatal attraction, and it is a flustered heart that is always followed by another person.

If the line is not restored at that time, if the dark time can be extended for a few more seconds, does that mean that they will entangle and kiss in the dark environment.

The moment this idea popped up, Lu Xiumu's face also became warm.

He has obviously passed the age of ignorance of love, and he has filmed countless kissing scenes, but now he is like a silly boy in adolescence, only relying on a hazy picture that does not exist, the whole person becomes restless.

"Ms. Lu." At this moment, Qiu Xingfeng turned sideways and called him in a low voice.

The close distance made Lu Xiumu even more at a loss: "...what?"

Qiu Xingfeng stared at his face for a few seconds, then raised his hand and pressed it to his forehead: "You don't have a fever, do you? Why is your face so red?"

The tense questioning defeated Lu Xiumu, and he felt that Qiu Xingfeng was holding his deathbed firmly in his hands.

There was a noisy room allocation sound around, and everyone was in a hurry. Under such circumstances, it was difficult to notice other people's anomalies. Even Xiaowen didn't have the heart to assign it to Lu Xiumu.

But there is always someone who pays close attention to Lu Xiumu's every move every second, not the cross-border censorship and surveillance, but the subconscious concern.

The bright room is muted by a layer of soft light, and other people's voices become insignificant background music.Lu Xiumu pursed his lips: "It's okay, it's probably blown."

—

Lu Xiumu's room was eventually requisitioned by two veteran actors, and several other actors slept on bunk beds on the second floor.When Lu Xiumu came out after washing, he saw Chu Mengting sitting cross-legged on the cushion alone.

Lu Xiumu wiped off the water from his hair and asked, "Where's Teacher Qiu?"

"Take a shower downstairs." Chu Mengting patted the side of her side while tearing open the mask bag, "Come and sit."

Lu Xiumu sat beside her with a bowed body, he thought for a few seconds: "Sister——"

The voice froze suddenly, and he changed his words again: "Meng Ting, are you okay?"

There was a slight pause in Chu Mengting's action of applying the mask, and she shook her head lightly: "I didn't control my emotions for a while, did it scare you?"

"How could it be?" Lu Xiumu said, "Director Jiang said it's normal."

As if he was afraid that she would have some psychological burden, he added: "Teacher Qiu also said the same."

The two of them spoke less than ten sentences, but Lu Xiumu mentioned Qiu Xingfeng twice unintentionally. No matter how stupid Chu Mengting was, she could still see something abnormal.

"Xiu Mu..." She tried her best to ask tactfully, "Is there any possibility that Rumu Chunfeng's fake show is real?"

Lu Xiumu was stunned by the question, he almost forgot that the person in front of him was still the biggest fan of him and Qiu Xingfeng, and he never thought that Chu Mengting would say such things at such a time.

Hearing the words "like a spring breeze" from someone else's mouth again gave him the illusion that he seemed to have passed away.

"Why do you still want to engage in CP?" Lu Xiumu wanted to laugh a little, "Teacher Qiu and I have been unbound for a long time."

"It has nothing to do with the company's marketing." Chu Mengting said, "I just think that you and your brother... seem too close."

Lu Xiumu's elbows were originally on his knees, but he couldn't help slipping when he heard this sentence.He looked at Chu Mengting, trying to see her true intentions from the other person's face, but was dissuaded by the thick seaweed mask.

"Are you trying to remind me to keep a distance from him?"

"No, no, no!" Chu Mengting quickly waved her hand, she paused, and continued: "When I was chatting with Xiaowen before, I happened to mention the spring breeze. At that time, Xiaowen categorically said that you are fake, and you already have someone you like. people……"

The more she spoke, the lower her voice was: "My brother has a serious mental illness, I'm afraid there may be some misunderstanding between you."

"..." Lu Xiumu's expression was indescribable, "Teacher Qiu is out of his mind?"

Chu Mengting nodded firmly: "I always feel that his brain circuit is not normal, and his thoughts are also weird. He may be overdoing his brain and take your friendliness as liking."

Lu Xiumu was silent for a while: "I thought you wished the spring breeze to come true."

"I hope!" Chu Mengting said, "but you already have someone you like, I can't force you two to be together, and I can't push the brother into the fire pit of 'what you want'."

Lu Xiumu smiled, spread the quilt and got in: "I see."

"You don't think I'm meddling, do you?" Chu Mengting looked at him cautiously.

"What are you thinking?" Lu Xiumu closed his eyes, "Rest early."

Chu Mengting wanted to say something more, but Lu Xiumu gave her the illusion of "falling asleep", and finally, she dimmed the lights on the ground.

It was impossible for Lu Xiumu to really fall asleep, and he thought again about the probability of Qiu Xingfeng being Dandelion.This matter has lost the best time to ask, and it seems that another opportunity is needed to bring it up again.Lu Xiumu also regained his sanity during the long blank period.

In fact, the answer to this question is nothing more than two, yes or no, the probability of "everyone is happy" is only half, but at this time Lu Xiumu is no longer obsessed with the 50.00% "wrong".

Gao Xin once reminded him that he was stuck in a "self-righteous" love for too long, which made him automatically ignore the behavior of others.

Lu Xiumu also understands that this is abnormal, but it is precisely because of Lu's mother's "returning on his word" that he likes it, which makes Lu's father fall into the quagmire of pain.He can't blame his mother for being cheap, but subconsciously, it is inevitable that he will feel disgusted by unsteady love.

The abnormal experience "educated" him to be a "highly moral" person in his relationship, so the moment he was sure he liked Dandelion, he wrapped himself in a cocoon.

There was a creaking sound from the stairs, and then Lu Xiumu heard Qiu Xingfeng ask softly: "Mr. Lu is asleep?"

"Hmm." Chu Mengting also suppressed her voice, "Maybe I'm tired from filming today."

Qiu Xingfeng nodded and turned off the light.

A strong wind blew up in the middle of the night when the sea of ​​stars was falling, and there was a muffled whistling sound outside the window, which made the window tremble and shake.Lu Xiumu felt the cushion beside him sink, and then a heavy military coat fell on him lightly.

The opponent's movements were gentle, but extremely meticulous.The warmth gradually spread from the heart to the whole body.

After the sound of steady breathing came from beside him, Lu Xiumu finally opened his eyes.He turned over lightly, clenched his military coat with his fingertips, and looked at the faces of the people around him by the moonlight.

It took a while before he looked back, and then he turned the coat in the other direction and put it on the two of them.

In the silence, he became more certain of what he thought in his heart—whether Qiu Xingfeng was Dandelion or not, he would like him.

The word "like" has been dubbed by many beautiful words by literary workers. If it happened in an instant, it would be called love at first sight; if it happened naturally, it would be love for a long time.

But Lu Xiumu felt that he did not belong to any of the situations, because he was determined, he no longer entangled in Dandelion's identity, and was willing to break free from the shell that bound him.

He likes Qiu Xingfeng, who broke out of the cocoon that cannot be defined.
