I thought I was a jerk

The curtain call of the script, under the cover of the curtain, the students in heavy costumes left the stage one after another.

They were quite fast, and took advantage of the transition and the host's commentary time to make a handover with the program prepared by the next acting student.

The moment they passed each other, the dragging European-style robes rubbed against the chorus uniforms of the performance students—they shouldn’t have gotten so close, but the acting students who took over seemed to be getting closer on purpose, with bold eyes Or fall implicitly on "Josiah."

so beautiful.

The closer you are, the more clearly you can see the other person's face, the complexion is pale, and everything is born to perfection, almost in line with the most demanding aesthetics in everyone's eyes.Xue Ci narrowed his eyes slightly, and walked backstage without pausing.Many people have the urge to rush over to ask for his contact information regardless of the performance.

It's a pity that the opportunity was quite short, the white robe of "Josiah" disappeared around the corner, and the curtain in front of the stage was opened, the lights were bright, and they were exposed in front of the audience.

In fact, the auditorium was not as full as it was just now.

Many people left their seats silently, leaving many vacant seats visible to the naked eye.

Su Bo noticed that the girl he liked slightly flicked her forehead hair, turned her head and said something to her best friend, and also left the seat.Only then did I suddenly realize that many people had left the venue early, which was a bit strange.

"Why are they all gone?" Su Bo murmured, "Is this performance bad? I think it's pretty good."

Liu Liu rolled his eyes: "They are going to ask for the contact information of 'Josiah'. If it is later, they may not find anyone."

Su Bo was shocked: "Is that so? They are, too unreserved."

Su Bo, who was hit, complained secretly, and then saw Brother Xie beside him standing up with a cold face, passing by the empty seat, and going straight out——

Seeing Xie Wenhan's figure, Su Bo was startled, and asked in a low voice, "Brother Xie is going too...uh, do you want a phone number?"

Liu Liu looked at him with contempt, and sneered: "How is that possible."

With brother Xie's honest and indifferent personality, how could he take the initiative to pursue him, not to mention that he still likes girls.Even if you meet a student as beautiful as "Josiah", it's impossible to suddenly change your sexuality, right?

Brother Xie is no ordinary person.

Maybe I just feel stuffy inside and go out to get some fresh air.Or want to smoke.

Liu Liu thought.

Xue Ci quickly changed the performance costume and handed it over to the classmate in charge of the props.

Shen Nianlin also happened to take off the magician's robe on his body, he took two steps forward, and handed the item book together with the item group to the person in front of him.The actions of the two coincided with each other, and the outstretched hands almost touched each other.Shen Nianlin glanced sideways, and for some reason the reaction was surprisingly big, he suddenly withdrew his hand, and took a few steps back exaggeratedly.

Xue Ci subconsciously glanced at him.

Under Xue Ci's strange gaze, Shen Nianlin's face turned red.He looked back at Xue Ci calmly, and with a little arrogance and annoyance, he threw the props in his hand onto the chair and left.

The student in charge of collecting props comforted Xue Ci in a low voice: "Don't pay attention to him. Shen Nianlin has that temper, and he doesn't like anyone." Obviously, he was one of them who knew that Shen Nianlin and Xue Ci were not compatible.

Xue Ci didn't know the relationship, but felt that Shen Nianlin's reaction was strange.It just so happened that the squad leader also came over to pass on the news, so Xue Ci forgot what happened just now.

The squad leader said that the students who were injured in the accident before were fine and had already gone back to the dormitory to rest, so everyone needn't worry, and thanked Xue Ci by the way.

Xue Fu heard from Xue Ci before that it was the student who originally played Josiah who had an accident, so he temporarily replaced him.

It's just that Xue Fu at that time thought that the "accident" should be that the other party was late, something happened temporarily, and so on, but he didn't expect it to be a prop accident in the background.He frowned slightly, and asked a few more words cautiously: "Ah Ci, are you injured?"

"If you get injured, you won't be able to perform on stage." Xue Ci replied.

The props made by the students are indeed too unreliable.Xue Fu looked serious, as if he was still a little dissatisfied.

"You have to stay away from danger and pay more attention to safety..."

Xue Ci nodded slightly following his words.

Before he finished speaking, the squad leader who had listened to him came over.The squad leader didn't hear what they were saying very clearly, but subconsciously took credit for Xue Ci: "At that time, the observation tower made of props fell down. If it was on top of someone, it would probably have a bloody head. Xue Ci got out with the person in his arms." The scope of being smashed, or else it would be more than a sprained foot—" Seeing Xue Fu's face getting darker and darker, the squad leader's voice suddenly dropped.

Xue Ci looked at the squad leader slowly, then his eyes fell on his elder brother calmly: "..."

"You are always like this." Xue Fu's face was gloomy, and he was almost speechless because of his younger brother's anger. "If there is danger, you will be the first one to come up to him. You don't always take your own safety seriously."

Although he was very angry, Xue Fu just pulled Xue Ci's face as if to vent, the touch was very good.However, seeing a blush quickly appear on his porcelain-white delicate cheeks, as if being pinched, he began to feel distressed again.

Every time Xue Fu wanted to teach his younger brother a lesson, his tone was fierce but he couldn't get angry, and soon became discouraged; if it was physical punishment, he would not bear to hit his younger brother's finger.Under such circumstances, Xue Ci has not grown crooked, it all depends on his own roots.

Ferocity is not ferocious anymore.Xue Fu's hard tone quickly softened, and he discussed with Xue Ci, "Whatever you do next time, you must also think about your brother. If you encounter danger, brother will worry for a long time."

Xue Fu has never been a personality that is directly exposed, and in front of others, he is always as elusive as ice that has not yet melted.But in front of his only biological brother, he never hesitated to reveal his soft side to show his weakness.

Xue Ci's eyes happened to meet the full of worry in Xue Fu's eyes, and within a few seconds, he moved his eyes imperceptibly away.

"……understood."

Xue Fu let out a sigh of relief.As if exposing the emotions just now, he asked him gently: "Do you still want to go to the show? Or go to Huada with my brother?"

Except for the careful preparation of the students of the chip department, the performances of other majors are actually not bad.Xue Ci quickly made a decision: "Let's go to the show." He didn't notice the tangled expressions on the faces of other students in the background.

Xue Ci was going to sit directly behind the unreserved seats with his brother, so as not to hinder other people from watching the show.As soon as he stepped out of the backstage, he was blocked.

Xue Fu and Xue Ci really have no similarities in appearance. People who see them for the first time may have a hard time guessing that they are brothers.

Therefore, although the visitors looked at Xue Fu a few more times, they regarded him as a strong "competitor", and there was hostility between their eyebrows and eyes.Deliberately standing in front of Xue Ci, showing the most gentle side: "Excuse me, can... can I have a mobile phone number?"

Xue Ci was a little confused, politely refused, but found that more people came after him one after another.

Girls make up the majority, but there are also a lot of boys.Some directly asked for Xue Ci's mobile phone number, and implicitly came to ask if they could get to know each other.

Compared with his younger brother, Xue Fu has much richer experience in this area.

Xue Ci may have stayed in the laboratory and hadn't encountered too many confessions, but since he was a child, he was soft when he received love letters, and he immediately understood what these people meant.

Xue Fu was really indifferent and hostile to those boys, and looked down upon them very much.But his attitude towards girls is better. After all, Xue Ci is already an adult, and it is normal to fall in love in college. Although he himself prefers to marry into a well-matched family, he almost indulges his younger brother.

As long as Ah Ci likes it, nothing else matters.

So Xue Fu fended off those men who didn't like him with cold eyes, but kept a few girls who looked shy and reserved, and whispered to Xue Ci: "They want to chase you."

"If you like something, you can contact it." Xue Fu encouraged.

Xue Ci was slightly taken aback.

He has no thoughts about love, and all he can recall is the dismal ending of his last wrong first love in his previous life.Those deep memories have replaced all expectations and longings, making Xue Ci always uphold the idea that being single is also good.

Or in a deeper desire——

Countless deeds of being contradicted by others told Xue Ci that he should not be loved, nor should he love others.This will only make both parties unhappy.

Looking up again, Young Master Xue's eyes were calm, and he refused quite decisively: "Sorry, I don't have this idea, please let me go." He raised his voice deliberately so that the students behind him could hear clearly.

But unexpectedly, very few people are willing to leave.

They had already made preparations. Of course, it was difficult to pick a high-altitude flower like "Josiah", and it was normal to be rejected once or twice.

With the increase of students coming and going, the narrow road became more and more difficult to pass through. Because Xue Ci was blocked in it, he rarely showed a distressed expression, and he was in a dilemma.

It was also at this time that the boy's cold voice came from the end of the line: "Please let me go."

The crowd moved out of a path quite cooperatively, because the person who came here was also quite famous in Huada.Xie Wenhan, a freshman in the finance department, is extremely handsome in appearance and cold in temperament. It is said that he is from a commoner background, but his every move shows the aura of a family background.

As the number one major in the finance department, Xie Wenhan kept a low profile.But compared to this matter, there is another characteristic that is more attractive - for example, he was selected as the No. [-] student in Huada University in the school forum.

Among other things, among the group of students who came to ask for Xue Ci's phone number, there were quite a few who thought of Xie Wenhan as their "wall" and wanted to chase after him.

However, Xie Wenhan himself looks too cold and distant, and there are very few people who can turn their thoughts into reality.

After the crowd tacitly moved away, Xie Wenhan's eyes met Xue Ci's.

They haven't seen each other for five years.

Xue Ci should not have recognized him, but at this moment, the more profound and handsome facial features in front of him coincided with the downcast and firm eyebrows of the boy five years ago.

Xue Ci had seen Xie Wenhan in the most embarrassing, even miserable appearance.

When we met for the first time, Xie Wenhan was drenched all over, sitting by the door with his knees hugged like an abandoned pet.

Later, Xue Ci also saw that he was abused, his whole body was bruised, and his eyes were lifeless.

But after breaking away from the dark family, Xie Wenhan seemed to take good care of himself, and he has become a reborn adult.He is tall, handsome, and outstanding, his silent inferiority complex has been washed away from his flesh and blood, and he can no longer see the shadows of his youth.

With such a huge change, Xue Ci recognized him—but Xue Ci didn't call out his name.

In Xue Ci's mind, even if the other party still remembered the name "Xue Ci", it should not match his appearance.

After the most rapid growth period is over, they all change a lot.

As expected, Xie Wenhan did not call Xue Ci by name.He just retracted his eyes a little hastily, and glanced at the people around Xue Ci indifferently.

Obviously there was no emotion in that glance, but the students stared at by Xie Wenhan all felt uncomfortable.

Like a cold snake crawling into the collar, or being scratched by the cold and clammy wind before the rainstorm, it was a kind of discomfort to be stared at, and even made them shrink back slightly.

"He has a girlfriend." Xie Wenhan said, although he didn't specify it specifically, but everyone else knew who "he" was with a tacit understanding.

Xie Wenhan seemed a little uncomfortable, and his tone was cold: "You can go."

If Xue Ci said that, the students who chased him might not believe it, thinking it was a temporary excuse, and would not leave.

But it was Xie Wenhan who said those words...

His indifferent expression, and his identity of never bothering to lie, made them unknowingly believe what Xie Wenhan said, and then felt it was a pity.

"Josiah" actually has a girlfriend...

Although judging from the other party's conditions, this seems normal.

Most people leave with regret.And there are a small number of students who don't care whether Xue Ci has a girlfriend at all, but only want to develop a relationship, and they are ashamed to stay openly in front of so many people and reveal their thoughts.He had no choice but to leave for the time being, planning to find a chance to contact Xue Ci later.

Soon, there were not many people left.

Xue Fu also believed that sentence, and after Xie Wenhan opened his mouth, he looked at his younger brother with a thoughtful expression.

When did Ah Ci have a girlfriend?

And I haven't told my brother yet...

Although Xue Fu didn't care about Xue Ci's dating, he was very concerned about whether the object passed his eyes.Otherwise, he always worried that his younger brother, who was very innocent and kind in his eyes, would be deceived.

There were still a few people who hadn't gone far, so Xue Ci didn't explain about his girlfriend first.

But seeing Xie Wenhan take a step forward, the indifference in his eyes melted, and he seemed to gain some popularity.

"Long time no see." Xie Wenhan said.

Xue Ci's first thought was that the other party could still recognize him after such a long time——

He lowered his eyes and replied, "What a coincidence."

"Are you also applying for the Huada University?"

Certainly not a coincidence.

Xie Wenhan's hand was hanging stiffly by his side, he felt the sticky sweat seemed to be increasing, but his expression was very calm, as if all this was a reunion of old friends destined by heaven, "Well, Huada's finance department is very good .”

During this short conversation, Xue Fu finally recovered from the shock of "my younger brother didn't tell me about his relationship", and his eyes fell on Xie Wenhan.

Surprisingly, he actually remembered someone like Xie Wenhan.

Strictly speaking, Xue Fu had a good impression of Xie Wenhan.From Xue Fu's point of view, this young man of ordinary background is quite... talented.

Xie Wenhan received a large amount of compensation and inheritance from a stepson from a low-ranking family with a rather bad background.

Unlike his stepbrother, who only knows how to enjoy himself, and his mother, who spends all his time buying real estate and waiting for the meager appreciation, Xie Wenhan almost put everything into stock investment—he was still underage at the time, and he was still looking for an agent operations performed by people.

When everyone expected that Xie Wenhan would squander all his property, he actually grabbed quite an enviable profit during the cold period of the stock market.Like a dragon with a treasure in its arms, it has attracted the covetousness of many people. There are even many small aristocratic families who are willing to put down their social status, set up traps for short companies, and do various despicable acts, just to snatch the huge treasure in Xie Wenhan's hands. cash flow.But in the end, no one expected that these small aristocratic families fell down one after another and became one of Xie Wenhan's assets.

This is enough to cause many people to be vigilant.

There were even top-notch families who wanted to recruit this budding young man, but they were all rejected.

Because some interests were involved, this overly ambitious boy was jointly banned for a period of time. Xie Wenhan should have been quite downcast at that time, but no one thought that he would survive and have a fairly stable partner.There are middle-class families who are willing to be at his mercy. I heard that the heirs of those families are still following Xie Wenhan, breaking the blockade and creating a very strange situation.

Some aristocratic families expressed their disdain for Xie Wenhan's background, but they had to admit that he possessed outstanding abilities and wealth that made them all salivate.Sometimes they even put down their arrogance and asked to cooperate with Xie Wenhan, whom they didn't pay attention to.

However, the reason why Xue Fu paid attention to Xie Wenhan was because in the cooperation between him and Xue's family, he took the initiative to give up profits, almost to the point where he only worked hard and didn't make money.

At first Xue Fu thought that the other party was looking for a "backer", but Xie Wenhan never made any request - even when he was blocked by those aristocratic families.Later, I accidentally learned from my father that Xie Wenhan was abused by his stepfather before, and it was Ah Ci who called the police and asked for a search.In terms of property distribution later, the Xue family also came forward to mention a few words.

It's not to fight for Xie Wenhan, but to let him get what he deserves.

And this is precisely the origin of Xie Wenhan's primitive accumulation.

So the other party's initiative to make a profit is probably to repay the favor.

Xue Fu doesn't necessarily care much about the benefits, but he has a good impression of Xie Wenhan's gratitude.

At this time, Xie Wenhan and Xue Ci were talking, and he was not surprised.

He even felt that it was quite reasonable for Xie Wenhan to recognize Ah Ci at a glance and pay attention to him first.

He should always remember Ah Ci's kindness.

Xue Fu nodded in satisfaction.

At this time, Xue Ci said first: "Thank you for helping me out just now." He was referring to Xie Wenhan's excuse just now that he had a girlfriend to let others leave.

Xie Wenhan's eyes flashed.

He closed his eyes slightly, suppressed the coldness and hostility in his eyes, so that Xue Ci could not see anything unusual, and then said with a normal expression: "It should."

I owe you nothing.

"Hua Da is so big, it's rare for us to meet each other." Xie Wenhan said seriously, "Shall I treat you to dinner tonight?"

Before Xue Ci could speak, Xie Wenhan turned to Xue Fu again, "Brother Xue Ci is also here."

Xue Fu was subtly flattered again.

There are too few people who can winkly call him Brother Xue Ci, so even if Xue Fu wants to dine with his younger brother more, he still nods in a reserved manner.

Xie Wenhan called directly to make a reservation for the restaurant.

His gaze fell on Xue Ci casually again: "...Xue Ci, do you want to book your girlfriend's place?"

Xue Ci paused for a moment.

"Girlfriend?" He thought Xie Wenhan knew that it was an impromptu excuse.

"I don't have a girlfriend."

·

Dumpling fried rice is a small up master, and it is very popular in the strawberry video.

In fact, the videos he shoots and edits are ordinary daily life.However, unlike other up hosts, he photographed the daily life at Huada University.

BGI, the highest institution in the dream of students all over the world, can satisfy the curiosity of the audience even if they just take pictures of the grass and trees at will.And today's video of dumplings and fried rice is a Huada celebration performance recorded by him.

Originally, Dumpling and Fried Rice was going to cut a few more programs to speed up the compilation.But after watching the performance, he was happy for a while, and he put the stage play "Assassination" directly on it from the beginning to the end of the play.

And this time there is no voice or commentary, which seems quite perfunctory.Even the dumplings and fried rice felt that he just randomly cut and uploaded it with his mobile phone after the shooting, which was more casual.

I simply feel that today's stage play is too surprising, and it can be watched by more people.

The title of Huada's celebration performance was indeed very attractive, and within a short while there were hundreds of thousands of views.

The barrage praised:

"As expected of Huada's performance, the stage props are too advanced!"

"This costume design is so beautiful, I have a bold idea..."

"The props are also very professional."

"I'm different from you. I just want to know if all the students in Huada are so handsome? awsl, I want to go to Huada too!"

"Who doesn't want to go to Huada, mainly because of this score..."

There are also many discussions on the plot. After all, "Assassination" has sprinkled waves of dog blood, which is very suitable for the adaptation of stage plays.

Discussions until here are normal, until a certain plot passes, the protagonist Serin returns from the dragon's breath, and the white-robed mage appears——

The barrage disappeared strangely, and only a few discussions of the previous plot drifted sporadically, as if the screen had been cleared.

Compared with amateurs, the shooting technique of dumpling and fried rice is quite up to standard, but it is not professional equipment after all, and the ambient light is dark.It is also vaguely able to identify what level each actor looks like.But even so, it couldn't conceal the astonishment brought by the white-robed mage the moment he appeared on the stage.

He walks out in the light.

The silver hair is like a waterfall, and the skin and bones made of snow piles, only see the side face, but feel that the complexion is boundless.

Even the blurry picture quality can't hide the good-looking from the bone.

The barrage was silent for a few minutes before it started frantically swiping the screen.

"Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah!"

"I'll just say hello to my husband, woo woo woo."

"I admit that your little trick has seduced me, I'll give you a chance to get me!"

"Secretary Jiao, in five minutes, I want all the information about this beautiful woman."

After returning to the dormitory with dumplings and fried rice, he fell asleep on his head because he was too tired. He also forgot to check his video account, otherwise he would find out that his private mailbox was full.

At this time, the part where "Josiah" appeared on the stage was also edited and posted on Weibo, which directly set off another round of upsurge.

The author has something to say: Xiao Xie's heart: Good!
