24 Lies

Ah Mai is currently buying mosquito repellent at the convenience store outside the hotel.

After paying, he glanced at the time, it was almost ten o'clock.

There is still no movement from Zheng Guanyu, maybe he won't be back tonight?who knows.If Zheng Guanyu followed the crew to Wanding on impulse tomorrow, they might stay here for ten days and a half months.

According to the normal plan, Zheng Guanyu should leave.There is a film festival next month, and they were supposed to be in Shanghai with the crew waiting to leave for Venice.

But if Zheng Guanyu didn't leave, no one dared to urge him.Ah Mai counted the time and felt that it should still be in time. Zheng Guanyu is not the kind of person who doesn't know the key, and knows the importance.

But... Ruili is so hot, he really doesn't like such a hot city, every day is hot and stuffy, and he sweats profusely when he takes a few steps outside the house, so he really wants to leave quickly...

Ah Mai took the mosquito repellent water and walked to the hotel entrance, squinted his eyes, and found that there was a man smoking in the smoking area at the entrance of the hotel.

After confirming it, he trotted over to the man and shouted, "Brother Guan Yu?!"

Zheng Guanyu turned his head and glanced at him: "I was just going to call you to get the room card... where did you go?"

"Go buy mosquito repellent water." After Ah Mai finished answering, he asked strangely, "Why are you back?"

Zheng Guanyu gave him a strange look: "Don't you welcome me back?"

"No." A Mai looked at his expression, "I thought you were with..."

Zheng Guanyu glanced at him with a smile: "Think I'm in a hurry, so I'm going to fuck him tonight?"

Ah Mai waved his hand: "No, I mean..."

"Not only did I not do anything, I was also issued a good person card, which was rejected." Zheng Guanyu said with a smile, "You buy tomorrow's ticket later, let's go back."

A Mai was stunned in shock: "Huh?"

Zheng Guanyu looked quite normal.He took another cigarette and lit it.Just by looking at his expression, you might think that he is in a pretty good mood, no different from before.

"As expected." Zheng Guanyu said, "I know he will reject me, but I still want to speak straight."

Amy was still a little surprised.

In his imagination, Zheng Guanyu should be very cautious when he likes someone, and the process of moving his heart, approaching him, and clarifying his heart will be very slow, but how could it happen this time...

"Brother." A Mai asked, "How did you tell him?"

Zheng Guanyu: "I said that I want to praise him and I like him a little bit. I said it directly. It's best to be clear about this kind of thing. I don't like vagueness."

Is there a problem with this way of chasing people?A Mai helplessly said: "Brother Guan Yu, chasing people like this is easy to be misunderstood, maybe people think you are a showman..."

Zheng Guanyu smiled: "Maybe. But have you ever thought about it? If I pursue a young actor, it seems that I have that kind of meaning no matter what. I might as well say it tactfully from the beginning. If he really I want to be popular, because my identity is willing to have a beginning with me..."

After a pause: "Forget it, it's meaningless to say these things, you just think I'm impulsive. I may have a hunch that he has no feelings for me... I just said it, and it's good to let me give up."

Ah Mai opened her eyes wide: "But you have never..."

Zheng Guanyu rubbed his chin and smiled: "Yeah, I didn't before, but I can't stop seeing him. It's not good."

Ah Mai looked at Zheng Guanyu with some sympathy, sighed, and said in confusion: "Brother Guanyu, I thought you would like that kind of cute little boy, but I think that Mingzheng is a bit...you don't like this kind of boy." You're the type, find someone who is more obedient!"

Zheng Guanyu glanced at him and asked doubtfully, "He's very cute, don't you think?"

A Mai recalled his impression of Mingzheng - he saw Mingzheng on the set who was always filming a fight scene, always holding a murder weapon in his hand... How cute is he?

"I don't think it's cute at all." A Mai replied in a low voice, "I even think he's a bit fierce...and he's taller than you!"

Zheng Guanyu laughed: "You probably don't quite understand my aesthetics."

There was a moment of silence.

A Mai admired: "Brother Guan Yu, you don't look like you have been rejected at all. I was rejected when I confessed my confession before, but I drank all night..."

"I'm not sad, why did I drink." Zheng Guanyu said, "I'm sorry on the contrary. When he explained it, I felt a little distressed."

Amy was silent for a while.

He wondered whether he was abnormal or Zheng Guanyu was abnormal, how could someone feel sorry for the other party after being rejected?

"Actually, I can feel that he doesn't mean much to me. I'm glad I said it earlier." Zheng Guanyu sighed, "He doesn't like the same sex, I can feel it."

A Mai and him have always had a good relationship, and he said sadly after hearing the words: "Brother Guan Yu, don't be sad, you are really a very nice person, in the future..."

Zheng Guanyu smiled indifferently: "Okay, don't make a fool of yourself! This matter is very complete in my heart, I have no regrets, and I am not sad at all."

Seeing his smoking profile, Ah Mai sighed heavily.

After Zheng Guanyu finished smoking the cigarette, he patted Ah Mai's shoulder with a smile, and said, "Don't tell anyone, including Yang Shu, let's forget about it."

Zheng Guanyu flew back to Shanghai the next day.All he took away from Ruili was a wrinkled olive and a phone number that probably wouldn't get through.

When Yanli went downstairs to drink water, she heard movement in the house.She walked to the main room in a daze, and saw Ming Zheng pulled out the projector and was sitting in the living room watching a movie by himself.

Yan Li took two steps closer.

"Why aren't you sleeping?" She reminded softly, "I have to go back to Wanding tomorrow, so I should go to bed early."

Mingzheng turned his head and waved to her: "Come watch a movie with me."

She stopped two steps away from Mingzheng, knelt down and asked, "What movie is it?"

"It's called "Morning and Evening." Ming Zheng said, "Today, please come to my house for dinner with the starring movie."

Yanli looked at him: "Are you two friends?"

Ming Zheng nodded and shook his head: "I thought so, but the other party doesn't seem to want to be my friend."

Yanli sighed, feeling a little pity.

Because Mingzheng had a complicated growth experience and had few peers around him, he had been very lonely since he was a child. The family agreed to him to film because they wanted to make him happy.

"It doesn't matter, anyway, the entertainment industry is more complicated, so it's better to be careful with others." Yan Li said, "Just film and play for a while, and it's impossible to film for a lifetime. The family also needs your help. Think about it, your aunt How hard it is now, in the future..."

Mingzheng obviously didn't want to talk about this topic, and his tone was already a little unhappy: "Is it okay not to talk about that?"

Yan Li dared not speak.

She was sitting two steps away from Mingzheng, staring at the projection screen a little bored.

She doesn't have much artistic talent, and she can't enjoy the movies that Mingzheng likes to watch, so she falls asleep after a while.

The Zheng Guanyu in the movie still looks like a young man, with a green and ignorant expression. In the picture, he walks barefoot in the forest.

This is the most gloomy film Li Zhiyuan has ever made. The tone of the whole film is somewhat gray, depressing and heavy.

The most eye-catching presence in the film is Zheng Guanyu. He is wearing a very old shirt, which is loose and loose, and looks very thin.

"His mother is dead." Ming Zheng pointed to the screen and said, "He is going to find a bouquet of flowers in the forest and give it to his mother. After delivering the bouquet of flowers, he will go home and go to his yard Pick up an ax and chop off the head of the man who abused his mother."

Yan Li was a little shocked by the plot, but she still didn't say anything.

Mingzheng continued on his own: "The first time I watched this movie...my dad took me to watch it in the basement projection room at home. This is also the first film I have seen."

Yanli listened quietly.

Yan Li didn't understand what Ming Zheng wanted to say, but Yan Li sensitively sensed that he was in a bad mood.

She didn't dare to answer more, so she could only listen quietly.

"Because of my mother, I have always wanted to make movies. You all know that. When I was young, my aunt didn't let me go out very much. I had nothing to do. I just watched movies every day. I wanted to be a movie star, so I admired these good actors. "

After Mingzheng finished speaking, he sighed, pointed at the man in the movie, and asked, "Isn't he good-looking?"

Yan Li continued to nod.

In the picture, the boy in white bowed his head and took off a bouquet of white flowers.He walked to a grave and gently put the flowers on the grave.The camera advances to a close-up, and a tear slowly falls down his face.

That tear was beautiful.

"His acting skills are very good, and he can easily move people's hearts." Mingzheng's expression was blank, "He told me today that he likes me, and he looks very sincere. Do you think it's because of acting?"

Yan Li was shocked: "Like you?"

Mingzheng nodded and said, "En."

It's scary, the actor I admired is a gay guy, the purpose of approaching me is not so simple, it seems to be trying to rule him out.

Ming Zheng only felt that something must have gone wrong in this world, or that he had met a fake Zheng Guanyu.

The filter is broken.

Yan Li couldn't hold back and said, "Xiao Zheng, you..."

"I probably won't meet again." Mingzheng sighed, "Yanli, I actually feel very sad."
