24 Lies

Gao Xiaoyu washed up in front of the mirror.After washing his face, he put on his glasses and smiled at the mirror.

The first time I laughed a little stiffly.He frowned, recalling in his mind the curved corners of Fang Yu's mouth when he smiled at others, and smiled once, twice...

Tired of laughing, he took out a piece of paper from his pocket, opened it, and read to the words on it:

"Dear school leaders, teachers, and students, in order to further activate the campus culture..."

During the cultural performance, he and Fang Yu will be the hosts together.For other teachers, this may be an easy task, but Gao Xiaoyu needs to practice smiling in front of the mirror every day, practice controlling the expression, and then read the manuscript over and over again... Fang Yu said he was too His expression was stiff, and his voice was a little low.

Just practice more.No matter what, the more you practice, the better, Gao Xiaoyu knows.

After practicing for a while, he sweated again, so he took off his glasses and washed his face again.

The scene switched, and when the buried head looked up, the face in the mirror had become Chen Zhou's, and he was also washing.

While washing, Chen Zhou suddenly heard a noise from his window.He hung up the towel, walked to the balcony, and looked up.

Gao Xiaoyu was holding a clothes rail, saw him coming, and asked, "Are you busy today?"

What can happen, I am here to monitor you, Chen Zhou thought.

"It's okay, I won't go to the tea factory today, I don't have work." Chen Zhou replied, "What's wrong?"

"...I'll just ask."

Chen Zhou smiled: "If you have anything to say, just say it."

Gao Xiaoyu hesitated for a while before asking: "Yesterday's bag of loquat... is it sweet?" It was the bag he hung on the doorknob of Chen Zhou's house after he came back from get off work yesterday.

Chen Zhou raised his eyebrows and asked, "What loquat, when did you give it to me?"

Gao Xiaoyu said: "...Yesterday, did someone take it away? I hung it on the door of your house. It was around evening..."

Chen Zhou smiled and replied: "I'm lying to you. I ate it last night. It's very sweet."

There was a subtle change in Gao Xiaoyu's expression, first he was stunned, then disappointed, and finally he laughed, an unnatural smile.

"Don't lie to me," he said with a smile, "I can easily trust others."

Chen Zhou smiled: "Do you believe everything I say?"

Gao Xiaoyu sent an innocent look: "Yes, I basically believe everything you say."

Chen Zhou stopped talking.

They stared at each other for a while, each with their own thoughts, and looked at each other inexplicably.

Li Zhiyuan likes this shot very much.In an old old house, people on the first and second floors talk on the balcony. He likes this kind of spatial layout.The saturation of the sun is high, and the faces of the actors are full of emotions... everything is just right.

Gao Xiaoyu's white shirt hanging on the balcony shook slightly.The sun outside the window is fierce, and there are two crossed red armored paper pasted on another window at the edge of the lens, and the looming dark red curtains inside are also shaking slightly.

Gao Xiaoyu was still holding the bamboo clothes-drying pole, and knocked slowly on the balcony of Chen Zhou's house, one time, two times, three times... It was annoying to hear.

So Chen Zhou stretched out his hand and grabbed the clothes rail that was knocking on his balcony.

With a little strength, he smiled and tugged Gao Xiaoyu a few times... an intriguing fight.

Not as strong as Chen Zhou, in the end Gao Xiaoyu let go helplessly.

He said to Chen Zhou: "Are you free next Tuesday? Do you want to come to the school to watch the art show, I will play the piano then."

He added in a low voice: "I practiced the song "The Bell", which is very difficult to play. I practiced it for a long time, and I want you...listen to it."

In the gap of silence, only the hot wind spoke.

Chen Zhou answered him with a smile: "Okay, I'll go and see."

The lines were finished, but the director never called out.

They didn't move randomly, they still looked at each other quietly, looking down and looking up... There was affection and nostalgia in their eyes.Enthusiastic, but also restrained, the feeling of the undercurrent.

The scene is getting more and more right, and everyone on the set can feel it.They cooperate more and more tacitly, more and more like a real couple.Whether it's looking at the other person's eyes, or talking to the other person's tone... they are all fake.

Li Zhiyuan looked at them in a daze for a while before calling cut, saying that it was time to call it a day.

This scene was shot all morning, and everyone was very tired.The temperature is particularly high today, and people have been sweating profusely since the morning...

Zheng Guanyu rarely went to talk to Ming Zheng after filming today, and he got into the car in a hurry.

When taking pictures, he obviously felt that something was wrong with his arm, his fingers were stiff and he couldn't move.

But he didn't tell anyone, he just asked A Mai to show him after he got into the RV.

Ah Mai helped him rub his arm a few times, and asked worriedly, "Can you still move your fingers?"

Zheng Guanyu tried to move his lower finger, but if he could move it, he was stiff and seemed inflexible.

He sighed: "What's the use of this hand, it's really annoying."

A Mai thought for a while: "I haven't mentioned anything important recently, have I? How come..."

Zheng Guanyu thought for a while, and said strangely: "I haven't held anything heavy before, so I just...play the piano with my hands? I don't play for a long time each time, so it must not be too hard."

Ah Mai looked at him worriedly: "It shouldn't be caused by external force, but it just relapsed... Don't touch the piano too much, practice when you're shooting, take it easy recently."

Zheng Guanyu sighed: "Yes, I see."

His hand hurts every now and then, and he is almost used to it. Anyway, if it hurts, let Ah Mai rub it the next day, and it will be much better the next day.

The progress of the filming is very tense. After the filming of this scene, the crucial intimate scene will follow immediately.

Li Zhiyuan had never filmed an intimate scene of such a large scale before, he was very anxious, and he was still worried after returning to the hotel after work, so he called everyone into the room to discuss the details of tomorrow's shooting.

The small meeting room was bustling with activity.

I don't know why, but the two actors seemed quite at ease during the discussion, but the director and the staff were a little awkward and couldn't let go.

Lee Ji Won was the most nervous one.He usually only drank tea, but when he returned to the hotel, he even got a bottle of red wine to drink, and even asked everyone to drink some, saying that they would relax together... It made people want to laugh.

Ming Zheng and Zheng Guanyu didn't drink, their seats were deliberately separated by thousands of miles, and they were each in a daze in the corner.

Zheng Guanyu felt that he had given Li Zhiyuan enough face, this is already avoiding suspicion!

After chatting for a while, Ah Mai came over with the phone and called Zheng Guanyu to the side, saying that the agent Yang Shu wanted to confirm the scale of the intimacy scene.In fact, it has been confirmed before, but she is still a little worried, worried that the scale is too large, and has to confirm it repeatedly.

Zheng Guanyu asked Ah Mai to send Yang Shu the action agreement for the intimate scene that the crew had drawn up, and said, "Show her the filming again, and just say it's the same as what I talked to her before, it's not too much."

Ah Mai nodded, and after he finished replying with his mobile phone, he glanced at the people around him, and cautiously approached Zheng Guanyu and said, "...Brother, I just heard some gossip in the tea room."

In fact, Ah Mai seldom made irresponsible remarks to himself. Zheng Guanyu was a little curious and asked him, "About me?"

A Mai shook his head: "...explain Brother Zheng, said that he was taken care of by some director, and also said that he saw a car pick him up once and where to go."

"Oh." Zheng Guanyu nodded thoughtfully, "What else?"

"It's gone." Ah Mai sighed, "I just heard that the car is a Mercedes top match... Oh, these people are so talkative!"

Zheng Guanyu opened his eyes wide: "It's gone? Didn't you hear someone gossip about me and Mingzheng? Let me tell you something."

Ah Mai: "...I didn't hear it."

Zheng Guanyu sighed in great disappointment.

Immediately he was a little confused, there was a car to pick up Mingzheng, so when did Yanmao come to Wanding?

strangeness.

He was still in a daze and wondering, Ah Mai saw Zheng Guanyu rubbing his hands subconsciously, and asked, "Does your hands still hurt?"

"It's okay, it's just a little sore." Zheng Guanyu said, "It's okay, if you rub it for me when you get back, it won't affect anything."

After speaking, he walked over, but the director continued to ask him to sit down with Mingzheng and talk about the scene again.

Two actors, two directors, and an art director sat in a circle, chatting about how to make two men in bed look good, how to add details, and how to give the camera language.

The director's face was the most unnatural. He was worried about the scene in his heart, and kept sipping alcohol to calm himself down and relieve his mood.

Zheng Guanyu wanted to laugh when he saw Li Zhiyuan sipping red wine in a thermos, it was so funny, he couldn't help rubbing his hands and jokingly said: "Director, it's just an intimacy scene, and you also drink for fun, so why don't you drink it when you shoot tomorrow?"

The assistant director answered first: "Director Li is over [-], you have to understand. This kind of scene takes a lot of effort to shoot, and we are under a lot of pressure."

Li Zhiyuan sipped his red wine again, and sighed: "I can't wait to delete this scene now!"

The assistant director quickly waved his hand: "That's not okay, this scene is too important, and the best scenes in the whole film are in it."

Li Zhiyuan nodded: "I know. Although it's a lust scene, the focus of this scene cannot be desire, the focus must be on emotion, and the rhythm must be good. I don't like this kind of scene if it's too straightforward. It's vulgar. It's best. It's... just be sexy, not too much, just keep to a certain degree."

Mingzheng always feels a little drowsy when listening to Li Zhiyuan's plays, because Director Li speaks too slowly.He needs to play with something in his hands, and he can only listen when he is distracted... At this moment, Mingzheng is quietly playing with a blue mineral water bottle cap under the table.

Zheng Guanyu was also on a errand. From the corner of his eye, he watched Mingzheng play with the bottle cap with his knuckles, and the cap turned over and over on his knuckles... Zheng Guanyu was dazzled, as if watching some acrobatics.

Envious, the hands are so nimble, Zheng Guanyu rubbed his hands and thought.After all, one of my hands is considered useless, and I can't lift it if it's too heavy, even if I pull it with a little force.

The assistant director in front of him continued what Li Zhiyuan said just now: "But when shooting this scene, the actors must have desire on their faces."

Li Zhiyuan waved his hand: "You change the word, don't desire."

The assistant director thought for a while, then smiled and said, "Love?"

Li Zhiyuan nodded and said, "Yes, love, not pornography."

Zheng Guanyu looked at the blue bottle cap rolling on Mingzheng's knuckles, and answered absently: "How do you film a sex scene without sex? Men sleep with men. It's not intense or good-looking. Pulling is still necessary. "

As soon as these words came out, Mingzheng paused when he was playing with the bottle cap.

Li Zhiyuan looked at him, then at Mingzheng, and after struggling for a while, he said: "...I hope the filming will be more tender, with a little distance."

"Distance?" Zheng Guanyu couldn't help but laugh, "Take off all your clothes and pay the distance. Director Li, you're talking so hard that I don't even know how to shoot. The requirements are too high."

Li Zhiyuan was already so annoyed to death because of their incident, he heard the words and scolded: "...Anyway, you understand what I mean! When shooting, you need to be tender! There is a little distance! Don't be pornographic...It's better to be innocent! Understand?"

...Sex scene, pure love?Um.

"Understood." Zheng Guanyu rubbed his hand and nodded, "Tenderness, distance, love, innocence, not pornography... I understand, I understand."

Li Zhiyuan was unhappy seeing him recently, but now he was even more unhappy hearing what Zheng Guanyu said, so he glared at him and said, "What do you know? Come, tell me."

Zheng Guanyu was somewhat emotional because of Li Zhiyuan's attitude.Normally, he seldom argues with others, but today he is not very happy physically and mentally, and for no reason, he really wants to confront others.

He said: "It's just... no pornography, warm and pure love, I don't know what the difference is? Let's mix it up, right Director Li?"

"..."

Li Zhiyuan glared at him.

Mingzheng next to him felt that the atmosphere was not right, so he quietly touched Zheng Guanyu with his knee under the table, reminding him not to speak, and to shut up quickly.

After just a touch, Zheng Guanyu was really obedient. He spread his hands and said to Li Zhiyuan with a smile, "I'm just kidding."

He didn't make trouble with Li Zhiyuan anymore, and since then he just sat on the side and listened obediently, basically not saying much.

After chatting for a while, Ah Mai came over and handed Zheng Guanyu a gray suit jacket for him to wear. The indoor air conditioner was turned on very low, fearing that he might be cold.

Zheng Guanyu picked it up, but after thinking about it, he didn't wear it, so he put the clothes on Ming Zheng's lap, who was also lightly dressed, and said, "You wear it."

Everyone: "..."

Ming Zheng was stunned by his actions, and his first reaction was to look at Li Zhiyuan who was still talking.

... This Zheng Guanyu is not only bold, but also more and more unscrupulous.

Li Zhiyuan stopped talking.

But he endured it, saved Zheng Guanyu's face in front of everyone, and didn't say anything.

... Even if the other staff saw it, they had the right to regard themselves as blind and deaf, and no one said anything.

After all, Li Zhiyuan is the only one who is qualified to say something to Zheng Guanyu in this crew.

That dress was thrown on Ming Zheng's lap, he didn't move, his body wasn't cold at all, but it became inexplicably hot, and so did his face.

Before Li Zhiyuan drank himself on his head, he asked everyone to disperse in place and go back to rest.

In order to take care of their emotions, he didn't leave Zheng Guanyu to lecture.The main reason was that there was no chance. Zheng Guanyu walked the fastest after chatting, saying that he was in a hurry to go back to the toilet, and ran back to his room in no time.

... This made Ming Zheng, who was still holding Zheng Guanyu's coat, very tangled.

He had been standing at the door of Zheng Guanyu's room for a long time, and he really didn't want to look for Zheng Guanyu again, but...

Other people's things have to be returned.

At last he knocked on the door.

Zheng Guanyu quickly opened the door.Seeing it was him, he smiled and took his coat without saying anything.

There was a moment of silence.

Mingzheng stared at him for two seconds before saying: "...don't do that in front of everyone next time."

Zheng Guanyu groaned and asked him, "What's wrong with me?"

Just as Mingzheng was about to answer something, he saw a few staff members leaning over from the corner of the corridor...

This is very bad, even if you are honest in your heart, it seems a bit...

Zheng Guanyu obviously saw someone, so he was more decisive and opened the door completely: "Come in first?"

Ming Zheng hesitated, but didn't move.

"Why, I'm afraid." Zheng Guanyu smiled, "Could I eat you?"

What are you afraid of.Mingzheng thought about it without emotion, and just went in.

He walked in and stood in the porch without going too deep.The hotel room is not big, and there is a bed further inside, so you can't go further inside.

But the entrance is just such a small place, and the two men are crowded there, which seems a bit strange... The atmosphere is also a little ambiguous.

Mingzheng was about to tell him: next time, don't do this in front of others, it's not good for you, and it's not good for me either.

But Zheng Guanyu suddenly said to him: "By the way, have you seen a movie before? Men and men."

Mingzheng glanced at him: "What if you've seen it, so what if you haven't seen it?"

"I haven't seen a few books I borrowed from you to watch." Zheng Guanyu said with a smile, "It's best to catch up on your knowledge quickly, it will be useful tomorrow."

Mingzheng shook his head and refused: "I tell you seriously, I don't need this kind of knowledge."

"Okay." Zheng Guanyu sighed, "I'm mainly worried about you because you're not proficient in your business and have been nagging."

Ming Zheng almost sneered: "... Take care of yourself."

Is this still a gentleman?Like a disciple, a gentle scum.

Zheng Guanyu looked at him, and asked him with a smile: "How can I say a few words to make you unhappy?"

Ming Zheng shook his head: "No."

"I feel that when you are unhappy..." Zheng Guanyu looked at him closer, "You speak in a very childlike tone, as if you are waiting for me to coax you."

Mingzheng was too lazy to talk to him, looked down, pointed to Zheng Guanyu's hand, and asked, "Does your hand hurt? You just kept rubbing it."

Zheng Guanyu was taken aback for a moment, then smiled: "Oh, Ming Xiaozheng, you just peeked at me!"

It's also quite strange, except for Ah Mai, no one cares, so he asked.

Ming Zheng asked again: "Does it hurt?"

Zheng Guanyu smiled and took it away, subconsciously, he wanted to hide that hand.

"It doesn't hurt." He replied, "It doesn't matter. As long as the director doesn't let me carry stones, there's nothing wrong with filming a scene. Ah Mai rubs it for me and it will be much better the next day."

Mingzheng looked at him for a while, then hesitantly took out something from his pocket and handed it over.

"Take it and use it."

Zheng Guanyu took it over strangely: "What?"

"Very good medicinal wine, try it." Ming Zheng said, "Ask your assistant to pour a little at a time, don't pour too much."

... Zheng Guanyu was a little flattered when he took it.Because he was a little shocked, he didn't react much at first...

Mingzheng hurriedly opened the door and left while he was in a daze. His movements were fast, as if a ghost was chasing him.

Zheng Guanyu looked at the bottle of medicinal wine for a long time before closing the door in a trance, walked to the window and looked——

It was a sunny day outside the window, with no clouds in the sky.

Well, it didn't rain today.
