Chapter 1

This should be a wedding scene, Tao Liyang thought.

He stood on the best man's table, and everyone around him had blessed smiles on their faces.A wedding is an overly perfect lie. No matter how many twists and turns a couple has experienced in the past, and how much they will suffer in the future, at least at this moment, everyone believes that they can last forever.

The door of the church was pushed open, and the bride's floor-sweeping skirt slid across the red carpet and stopped in front of Xu Yunqing.

Tao Liyang couldn't hear a word of the pastor's lips opening and closing.But when Xu Yunqing spoke, his voice became very clear again.

He said I would.

Tao Liyang woke up.

He was revising the script and somehow fell asleep.It wasn't too long after this sleep, and the sound of water in the bathroom didn't stop.In such a short time, even the details of that dream were very clear, but Tao Liyang knew that it was all fake.

Xu Yunqing's wedding was not held in a church, but on an island.Tao Liyang didn't see it with his own eyes. He was going to go, and even agreed to be the best man, but before leaving, he broke his leg at the airport.

After two steps, he fell abruptly and broke his patella.

But the first feeling was not pain, but luck, he finally had a legitimate reason not to go to the wedding.

He never wants to go.

But Tao Liyang finally knew everything about that wedding.

Li Shuang gave every friend a commemorative CD of the wedding, even him who didn't go.So in the first few months of Xu Yunqing's marriage, Tao Liyang dug out the CD and watched it while drinking, watching Xu Yunqing say to Li Shuang over and over again, "I am willing, I am willing... Afterwards, I didn't feel that it was torture. .

Tao Liyang was stunned for a while before he realized the source of his awakening - the phone on the bedside table that kept ringing non-stop.

He took it over, took a cigarette by the way, walked to the balcony, and pressed the call button: "Hello."

"Not asleep yet?" Tang Ran's voice on the other end was a little hesitant, as if he didn't want him to receive this call.

"No, what's wrong?"

"There is something I want to tell you in advance."

"What's the matter?" Tao Liyang waited for a while, but didn't hear his next sentence, couldn't help laughing, and asked jokingly, "Are you and Jiang Ning going to make it public?"

"Xu Yunqing is divorced."

The two sentences were spoken almost at the same time, so Tao Liyang felt that he didn't hear clearly for a moment.But he did hear every word clearly, and even repeated it: "Xu Yunqing is divorced?"

The tone was calm, except that the cigarette in his left hand fell on the brown wooden floor of the balcony.

Tao Liyang glanced at the ashes on the ground, lit another cigarette, took a puff, and asked calmly, "Then what does that have to do with me?"

Tang Ran was originally talking about what happened this afternoon, I just got the news, I wanted to tell you, but they don't seem to plan to suppress it, and you will know when the news comes out in the past few days...

Hearing his words, he paused for a second and said, "It's fine if you really think so, I'm afraid you'll... give you a vaccination in advance."

Tao Liyang smiled, and Tang Ran naturally changed the topic to the movie he was busy with. This is Yaoxing's project. As the executive vice president, Tang Ran should ask a few questions.

After another quarter of an hour of casual chatting, another phone call came in from Tang Ran's end, and Tao Liyang said that you are busy first, and we can talk another day.

Tang Ran seemed to want to say something else, Tao Liyang could probably guess it, but he didn't want to hear it, so he hung up the phone first.

He continued to stand on the balcony for a while, finished smoking the cigarette and went back to the room.

Wei Xiao didn't know how long he had been out after taking a shower in the bathroom. He debuted for almost a year, and he was still lukewarm and didn't have a name.But people are good, in every sense, appearance and character.Playing a small role in a movie this time is not a guy, but it's a movie directed by a famous director, so it can be considered a profit.He sat on the edge of the bed in a bathrobe and swiped his mobile phone. When he heard the sound of the balcony door opening, he turned around and smiled: "Brother Liyang."

The water on Wei Xiao's body was not wiped clean, and the water condensed into water droplets and slid along the fair skin to the shadow of the neckline. His smile was extremely docile.Tao Liyang knew that he should walk over, maybe turn off the lights first?None of this matters, what matters is that this night should be like countless others in the past.

But he suddenly lost interest, and Tao Liyang blamed it on his unfinished script.

Probably sensing the difference in his attitude, Wei Xiao waited for a while, then stood up hesitantly.

"I'm sorry." Tao Liyang squeezed between his eyebrows, the smile on his face was still the same, "I'm a little tired today, let's try another day."

Wei Xiao touched his neck in embarrassment, and pulled the corner of his mouth a little bit: "Oh, good." He reached for his clothes to change, Tao Liyang felt a little sorry in his heart and said: "You will sleep here tonight, I'll go out and open another one."

"No need, no need." Wei Xiao shook his head, quickly changed his clothes, and walked towards the door with his head slightly lowered, looking a little pitiful.

Tao Liyang stretched out his hand to stop him: "It's my fault today, let's make an appointment later. I will remember everything about you."

Screenwriters don't have much say in the entertainment industry, but Tao Liyang is somewhat different.His career has been going smoothly in the past few years. There are several trophies for the best screenwriter at home, both domestic and international. His father Tao Cheng was originally a famous screenwriter with a wide network of contacts and a shareholder of Shining Star. The promise he can give Naturally, it is much higher than those small screenwriters whose manuscript fees will be delayed.

"It's not because of this." Hearing what he said, Wei Xiao hurriedly interrupted, then lowered his head again, "Brother Liyang, I really... really like you."

"I know." Tao Liyang patted him on the back reassuringly, "I don't mean anything else, you are talented and shouldn't be buried. I can help you if I have a chance, so naturally it will go smoothly. I still count on you and then It's very popular, can you remember my love?"

This is pure nonsense.Wei Xiao had few roles in the drama, and even though Tao Liyang was a resident screenwriter, he hadn't watched him in two scenes, so how could he know if he had talent.It was only two days ago when the crew had a dinner together. Wei Xiao, who had always been silent and shy, took the initiative to talk to him when he was about to leave. His expression was enough to let him know that this was the same kind. It's pleasing to the eye.

But Tao Liyang always speaks with a little careless smile, and his tone of voice has a touch of tenderness, even if he knows that those slightly raised eyes are not watching you, it will still make people indulge in it at a certain moment.

Wei Xiao seemed to want to explain something, opened his mouth but didn't say anything, finally just nodded, his voice was still very low: "Thank you, brother Liyang."

"Where?" Tao Liyang smiled a little deeper, and sent him to the door. He knew that a good night kiss at this time might make this hasty evening end more decently, but he really didn't have the spirit.He just pinched the back of Wei Xiao's neck and said, "Rest early, see you tomorrow."

Tao Liyang's little smile only lasted until he watched Wei Xiao's figure disappear at the end of the hotel, and then disappeared - he has always been a proper lover, this is a basic courtesy.It is also because of this that even though he changes his bed partner so frequently and has never had a stable relationship, he is always gentle and considerate when he is mentioned, and he spends a lot of money.In addition, he still has a handsome skin, and after so many years of wandering, he has no bad reputation.

Tao Liyang went to take a bath again, filled a bathtub full of water and submerged himself completely, and only when he was about to lack oxygen did he stick his head out of the water and take a deep breath.He grabbed a towel and wiped his hair, walked barefoot to the edge of the bed and lay down heavily.The wet water stains soon soaked the quilt.

He reached for his mobile phone and turned on the screen to find out that the call record with Tang Ran was half an hour ago.Tao Liyang thought that he should actually ask a few more questions. Is it true that Xu Yunqing is divorced?Although he knew that Tang Ran's current position was unlikely to be fake news, but it was too sudden after all. The relationship between Xu Yunqing and Li Shuang seemed to have always been good in his perception.

Tao Liyang wanted to call back for a while to ask, but he quickly remembered what he said to Tang Ran, what does that have to do with me?

It's really none of his business, Xu Yunqing's business has never had anything to do with him.

He didn't make Xu Yunqing get married, nor did he make Xu Yunqing divorce.No matter how good their relationship was, he never asked Xu Yunqing anything, it was Xu Yunqing who asked him.

When they were in college, they sat on the bus back to school.At that time, he and Tao Cheng had just returned from collecting wind in a village in Yunnan. The village was so far away that they couldn't even make phone calls, and the two hadn't been in touch for half a month.

Xu Yunqing drank a lot of wine and leaned his head on his shoulder.Tao Liyang carefully supported him, as if holding half of the universe.At that time, Xu Yunqing asked him: "Tao Liyang, do you like me? I know you like me..."

He laughed a little foolishly, and the taxi driver in front cast a surprised look in the rearview mirror.Tao Liyang didn't know if he was drunk or not, but he hummed lightly and solemnly with a sense of happiness in his heart.

However, this happiness has not come to digest.The eyelashes under Xu Yunqing's tightly closed eyelids suddenly moistened a little, and he said next to his ear: "You can't like me anymore, please, I beg you. You and me, men and men, this is wrong. You go to like others. If you are like this, I am like a sinner. What do you want me to do? How can I satisfy you? "

After Xu Yunqing finished speaking, he probably really fell asleep, and he didn't make another sound. Tao Liyang only felt his whole body was icy cold, he was still in the clouds for a second, and then he fell into Abi in a blink of an eye, his limbs were all stiff.

They missed the curfew, Tao Liyang carried Xu Yunqing to the small hotel next to the school, helped him change his shoes and clothes, and covered him with a quilt, without waiting for a second sentence.Only Xu Yunqing's frown was tightly furrowed, which never relaxed in his sleep.

Tao Liyang sat by the bed and watched him all night. He didn't know who he and "you" were, but when Xu Yunqing said this, his expression and tone were so painful, as if his love would only bring endless torture. I can silently agree in my heart.After all, he likes him so much, there's nothing he won't agree to, even if what Xu Yunqing said is, don't like him anymore, just like someone else.

At that time, his love hadn't even been said in words, Xu Yunqing saw it first, and died prematurely.A relationship that would embarrass the other party should not exist in the first place.

After that day, no one mentioned this matter, and then Xu Yunqing and Li Shuang got together, and Tao Liyang also tried to start liking others, but soon found that it was too difficult.

He can't fall in love with someone seriously, but he will always be seen if he is not paying attention.

Then it's fine if you like a lot of people, as long as there is no Xu Yunqing in the range.When the love is dispersed, no one will investigate whether it is true or not.

A lot of numbers that don't match his face gradually appeared in his mobile phone, with false sweet words in his mouth, and he was used to waking up in different beds.Later, Tao Liyang felt that such a life was not bad, it could be regarded as very good.You can't rely on Xu Yunqing's head either, maybe he himself likes the day in the first place.In the middle of the night filled with desire and alcohol, it is not so easy to think of people who are not allowed to miss.
