Overtone

Getting along with Xiao Cheng is very comfortable, and Qi Ye would think so without any filters.

Xiao Cheng seems to be a perfect person, not only in music, but also in character.He always takes care of others in every detail. Although he is always polite and distant to others, he is much better than those who exude coldness and stay away from strangers.

- is his favorite type.

It was almost two o'clock in the morning when we left the barbecue shop.

There was no way to hail a car outside, and the call on the mobile phone also indicated that it would take more than ten minutes to wait, so Qi Ye and Xiao Cheng had no choice but to stand at the door, waiting, and smoking a cigarette by the way.

"When you go back, rest early." Xiao Cheng shook the cigarette ash and said.He had two mobile phones, and before Qi Ye could charge up the dead mobile phone, he hailed two taxis.

Regarding this point, Qi Ye didn't feel anything.

It is inconvenient to do anything with two mobile phone numbers, and you can get instant discounts for two new orders for takeaway.

But it also means that there will be two WeChat IDs.

Thinking of this, Qi Ye was suddenly upset.Although he has never been to work in the workplace, he also knows that many people will have two mobile phones in the office.

One for personal use and one for work.

The reason is also simple, who knows how to link work and life, with two WeChat IDs, you can open Moments without grouping, how convenient.

When you start complaining about work, you don't have to worry about forgetting to mark the boss out.

So think about it this way, that very clean wechat page should also be Xiao Cheng's office phone, so it can be returned within seconds during working hours, which is logical when you think about it.

"It's too late today, Professor Xiao, you should get in the car and go back first." Qi Ye waved the popcorn cigarette in his hand, leaned against the railing on one side, and said with a smile, "I don't go to work until tomorrow night, so I can make up for it in the morning." Sleep."

Xiao Cheng looked at him for a few seconds and said, "Me too."

"Oh yes, I forgot." Qi Ye finally realized that he and Professor Xiao were in the same group, they both rested during the day, went to work at night, and also had to work during holidays.

Thinking about it this way, it feels pretty good.

There is another reason to feel at ease not to go home.

It's just that he can't drag Xiao Cheng into the water, he is a salted fish who gave up his dream, but Xiao Cheng is not.

"It's okay, I'm smoking this new favorite. It's easy to get comments from neighbors if I smoke at the old house in the middle of the night." Qi Ye turned his head towards the first taxi that came in from the corner, and then smoked again, "You first Go back, I'll wait for the second one."

Xiao Cheng looked around the corner, and after a few seconds of hesitation, Qi Ye pushed the car into the car.So he had no choice but to sit in the co-pilot, rolled down the window and said to Qi Ye, "Smoking less."

"Understood, smoke another one."

As soon as the words fell, Qi Ye took the lighter thrown by Xiao Cheng, and smiled: "Professor Xiao, this is your fault."

"Huh?" Xiao Cheng also had a slight smile in his eyes, but he asked knowingly, "What's wrong?"

"Pamper the habitual offender," Qi Ye said.

Xiao Cheng seems to be quite willing to continue this topic: "What are you pampering?"

Qi Ye smiled, took a cigarette and bent over, leaned closer and whispered in his ear, "You have to take responsibility for covering up the crime."

Xiao Cheng couldn't hold back this time, and shook his head with a smile: "Drink less in the future."

"Obey, Master Xiao."

Qi Ye kept laughing, threw the lighter in front of Xiao Cheng, and put it in his pocket.

In fact, up to this time, Qi Ye didn't feel anything, and he was quite happy today.It wasn't until he got into the taxi that he felt an indescribable sense of loss.

It's like the feeling that a show or party is over, just seeing the empty back seat of a taxi makes you feel so lost.

The slightly cool air mixed with the residual temperature of the city slipped in through the crack of the car, and along with the dim yellow light that came in, told Qi Ye that it was time to go home.

He looked up at himself in the rearview mirror, turned on his phone screen, and glanced at the time.

02:30am.

After only being separated from Xiao Cheng for 10 minutes, he suddenly felt that everything around him, even the whole world, became deserted.

A lot of things happened today, Qi Ye thought.

He leaned on the back of the back seat, propped his head up and looked out the window at the endlessly noisy city.

For some reason, he suddenly thought about the sentence he said to Xiao Cheng this afternoon. In fact, anyone who knows that sentence will naturally understand it, but now he hopes that the other party is a piece of wood, so he doesn't understand it so quickly.

He didn't even ask Xiao Cheng if he had a lover who was about to cultivate into a real fruit, or if he had someone in his heart like him.He didn't even figure out anything, just a ring on his index finger, and just gave a gift like this.

I don't know whether to say it is stupid or reckless.

However, even if he was reckless, at least he had to clarify his own intentions. Qi Ye still thought it was worth it.

It's fine, take responsibility for yourself.

If the other party accepts, then he doesn't care about being responsible for one more person.

When I woke up the next day, most of the day had passed.Qi Ye closed his eyes and fumbled on the bedside table for a while, and with great effort, he found the cell phone that had been ringing for a long time from the CD.

"Hey, Zhou Qun, what do you want from me?" Qi Ye straightened up, only to find that not only did he have a headache, but his whole body ached after sleeping for a long time.I heard Zhou Qun chatting twice over there: "Brother Qi, did you wake up from your sleep? Didn't you..."

"What's the matter?" Qi Ye touched the cigarette in his pocket: "Say it directly, don't beat around the bush."

"It's nothing, didn't you say to go drink together last time, there must be a chance these days, come out and have a few drinks with the brothers."

The background sound of Zhou Qun's phone call was still very rich. Qi Ye could tell that he was backstage at the theater, so he asked, "Didn't you ask for leave today? Why did you go to the theater again?"

"Don't mention it, something happened temporarily." Zhou Qun didn't make any more detours, "You don't have a camera. There are activities in the theater during the day these two days, so I want you to come and help me, and I don't want to make extra money. deficit."

"I'm not feeling well these two days, let's talk about it later."

"Farewell, Brother Qi." Zhou Qun said, "Just take it as a favor for my brother, the volunteers are all on leave, and there is no one here who knows how to shoot."

"No." Qi Ye lit his cigarette, threw the cigarette case away, and leaned back on the bed. "Didn't you win a Polaroid at the annual meeting before, just use it and forget it."

"Can that thing compare with your professional machine?"

"I have no strength, really, my whole body hurts." Qi Ye said truthfully, "I didn't lie to you."

"You are overindulging."

"roll."

"Brother, it's not in a hurry, I really don't want to bother you." Zhou Qun's tone was very sincere, "Just treat it as if I owe you a favor, and invite you out for a drink in the future. You can drink as much as you want in one night, and I will pay for it all... ..."

Listening to the tone on the other end of the phone, Qi Ye finally couldn't persuade him, so he had to agree.He has also known Zhou Qun for several years. He first met backstage at an audition. This brother is good at everything, but he is prone to long-winded words, and he can't bear it.

When Zhou Qun heard this, he quickly shouted several times that Brother Qi is mighty, and the younger brother must obey the arrangement of the elder brother.

"Let's talk about it first. If I can't hold on tomorrow, I will fall to your theater and you will be responsible."

"That's okay, don't talk about it for a while, I will support it for the rest of my life." Zhou Qun said, "It's just that I want to be responsible, and there may be people who don't want to."

"All right, all right, I'm not going to be poor with you, I've got nothing to do, hang up." Qi Ye put down the phone, he pressed the cigarette on his hand, closed his eyes and rested for a few seconds, but still didn't get up.

Tobacco didn't relieve the headache, on the contrary, it made it even more uncomfortable, as if there was some liquid in the head, and it hurt when it was shaken.

I arrived at the bar a bit late today, there were already scattered customers at the booth, Qi Ye entered the bar with a guitar on his back, went to the bar and asked Xiao Chen for a glass of water.

"Why do you look so pale?" Xiao Chen wiped the cup and poured hot water.

"I don't know, I caught a cold." Qi Ye glanced at the mirror hanging on the wine rack, "Maybe I can play a zombie without makeup."

"Let's talk earlier, the boss can still ask Lin Wen to help you for a few days." Xiao Chen said, "She has recently returned to China to rest for a while, and she is fine."

"No, I can hold on." Qi Ye drank the hot water as he said, and was about to walk to the table when Xiao Chen called him again, "Hey, wait a minute."

When Qi Ye turned his head, he saw him bent over, looking for something in the cabinet.

After a while, I took out a bag of things from the wooden lattice under the wine cabinet.

"what is this?"

"Professor Xiao gave it to me. I gave you this bag when I gave you the hangover medicine."

As Xiao Chen opened the seal, he saw that there were painkillers, hangover medicine, and cold granules inside, and they were all sorted by category, then tied the mouth with a transparent bag, and pasted a notice.

"There are several types of painkillers." Qi Ye glanced through the bag, moved and amused at the same time, "How come there are even vitamin tablets."

"You have to ask Professor Xiao about this, but the Japanese painkiller is okay, very mild, do you want to try it?" Xiao Chen took out the blue and white medicine box, "Professor Xiao brought it over at that time, please trouble us The boss kept it in the store, saying that some people like to drink, but they can’t stop once they drink.”

Qi Ye rushed to his seat and said, "Okay, then I'll eat this."

For some reason, Professor Xiao's medicine was quite effective, and Qi Ye felt much better when he got off work at night.At this moment, the mobile phone in his pocket rang, and Zhou Qun sent a text message.

-Zhou Qun: Brother Qi, just come over at nine o'clock tomorrow morning, and the autograph session will start at about ten o'clock.

-Qi Ye: You only have a phone, right?

-Zhou Qun: Yes, it is the kind of photo taking and publicity.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Qun sent over the precautions, a whole long list, like the kind sent in groups, with a large number of colorful symbols, Qi Ye glanced at it and turned off the phone screen.

He likes to play with photography, and he has spent a lot of time tinkering with cameras, so there is nothing to pay attention to.

But just to take some pictures, the autograph meeting is not interested, not someone in the mixed drama circle.

Of course, Qi Ye was only thinking this way that night, and when he went to the theater the next day and followed Zhou Qun to set up the camera, he realized something was wrong.

Qi Ye looked at the posters and advertisement boards rolled up on the stage, and suddenly became curious.He looked at Zhou Qun who was busy next to him, thought for a few seconds, and asked him who he was holding the autograph session for this time.

Before Zhou Qun could answer, a deep and magnetic voice sounded not far away, as if discussing something with other staff.

Qi Ye suddenly felt his heart beating a little faster, he turned around, his gaze passed Zhou Qun again, and fell on that tall and straight figure.

After a few seconds, he said in surprise, "This is...Professor Xiao's autograph session?"
