Chapter 23 Freedom
Xie Changle walked ahead with his head buried.
Although he didn't look back, he could feel that Fu Yixing had been following behind him, step by step.
It's hard to describe Xie Changle's mood now.
I wasn't moved, I just found it meaningless.
Probably the same as Fu Yixing's feeling before - these are meaningless things.
He finally understood Fu Yixing's feelings at that time.
If you don't like it, no matter what you do, you can only touch yourself in the end.Compared to others, there is only boredom.
Xie Changle knows that Fu Yixing can't be blamed now, everything has never happened.But the future plot still made him feel a little disgusted.
It took him three years, but it was fine if he couldn't make Fu Yi act, and he wouldn't turn around and find a substitute after he died.
What made Xie Changle even more speechless was that he was no longer interested in sending the substitute to Fu Yixing in advance.
It's hard to serve.
Xie Changle could not restrain his anger at Fu Yixing.He walked all the way back, and did not give Fu Yixing a look until he entered the room and closed the door.
Fu Yixing stood downstairs for a long time, his figure was straight, his shadow fell on the ground, leaning against the electric pole next to him.
Fu Yixing has quit smoking for a long time, but now he suddenly wants to smoke.He went into the small shop downstairs, bought a pack of cigarettes, and went back to the original place to light it.
Fu Yixing lowered his eyes, and a little spark appeared from his fingers.
Poor quality tobacco is a bit choking.
As soon as it entered the lungs, Fu Yixing could not stop coughing in a low voice.But he was in a flat mood, masochistic, and smoked the whole cigarette.
At this time, a message was sent.
Fu Yixing took out his mobile phone and looked, it was from Xie Changle.
The news is not long, and it is crisp and clear——[Please also ask Mr. Fu not to do meaningless things]
Fu Yixing looked up at the floor where Xie Changle was.It was pitch black, and there was no one in front of the window.
He stood for a while, then got into the car and left here.
Xie Changle acted indifferent to what he said in person, but after returning, he still fell into autism.
He gave the staff in the studio a holiday, locked himself in the room, didn't want to do anything, and just wanted to be alone.
During this period, many people contacted him——Qin Qiusheng called him the most—he didn't answer any of them, and he didn't even read the news.
The curtains in the room are very good at shading. When you draw them tightly, you can't feel the passage of time regardless of day or night.
Xie Changle fell asleep again and again, and he didn't know how many days had passed.
In the end, Xu Zhen pulled him out of this state.
Xu Zhen knocked on the door of Xie Changle's house, over and over again, and finally knocked on the door of Xie Changle's house.
The door opened slowly, and the room was dark.
Xie Changle stood behind, his eyelashes drooping sleepily, his hair disheveled, because he hadn't received natural light for too long, his skin was so white that it was almost transparent.
It looks like a bottle of delicate porcelain, which will shatter at the slightest touch.
Xie Changle's eyes were sleepy: "Why are you?"
He thought it was a takeaway order.
As soon as he saw Xu Zhen, he immediately closed the door.He doesn't want to see any acquaintances now, for fear that others will ask him what's wrong.
Fortunately, Xu Zhen had quick eyesight and quick hands, and reached out to hold the door.He knew at a glance that something was wrong with Xie Changle, but he also understood Xie Changle's temperament, so he didn't ask anything, just said: "My debut novel is released, do you want to watch it together?"
Xie Changle was stunned for a moment: "What's the date today?"
Xu Zhen reported a date.
Xie Changle counted the time and found that three days had passed.
Xu Zhen asked expectantly, "Is it possible?"
After failing to change the plot, Xie Changle felt that he was doomed to die. No matter what he did, he couldn't cheer up and didn't want to go out.
But then he remembered that Xu Zhen's movie premiere ceremony was messed up by him, and he was really sorry, so he nodded: "Just wait for me."
The door closed again.
After about 10 minutes, Xie Changle came out after changing his clothes.After freshening up, the tiredness on my body was swept away, and I became a little more energetic.
A lot happened in these three days.For example, "Summer Cicada" was released. On the first day, it crushed other movies of the same period with an ultra-low screening rate, and won the daily box office champion.On the second day, the screening rate increased, and so far, the cumulative box office has reached [-] million.
Today is the weekend.
When Xie Changle and Xu Zhen walked into the nearby movie theater, it was almost full of seats.
Xie Changle took his seat and heard a young couple next to him whispering.
"I've already seen it, this time it's the second brush. Let me tell you it's pretty good, it reminds me of high school."
"really?"
"Yes, I was bullied on campus when I was in high school..."
With the sound of conversation, the movie begins.
Xie Changle knew there was such a movie in the plot of the original book, but he didn't know the content of it.At this moment, it looked quite serious.
The protagonist of the movie is an ordinary teenager.
He is neither smart nor good-looking, so he can only keep his top grades by burying his head in his studies.
Because he didn't fit in, he was pushed out and bullied by others, locked in the toilet cubicle, and no one answered.
The tone of this movie is youthful and bright, and the existence of the protagonist is like a shadow in the sun, which is not easily noticed, but always exists.
Qin Qiusheng plays the opposite of the protagonist. He is passionate and flamboyant. He once helped the protagonist and kicked open the door of the protagonist, just like a ray of sunshine falling from the sky.
Everyone who watched the movie felt that these two should intersect, but unexpectedly, they seemed to be intersecting lines, touched for a short moment, and separated again.
In the end until the end, the protagonist did not express his feelings, and bid farewell to his high school years with regret.
The movie is not long, and after watching it, there is still more to say.
When walking out of the movie theater, Xie Changle heard people in the company discussing the content of the movie.
Xu Zhen made an invitation: "Why don't you find a place to sit?"
The two found a quiet coffee shop and sat down.
Xie Changle ordered a glass of iced Americano.
The waiter took the menu and left. Xie Changle raised his eyes and found that Xu Zhen who was sitting across from him had been looking at him, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable: "You, what do you see me doing?"
Xu Zhen smiled, and answered the irrelevant question: "Actually, I have always envied you, back in high school."
Xie Changle: "...Huh?"
Xu Zhen seemed a little nervous, and kept shaking the tableware with his hands on the table: "You probably don't remember, I was locked in the toilet cubicle when I was in high school, and you saved me."
Xie Changle really doesn't remember this.
But now that I say it this way, I still have a little impression, as if there is such a thing.
Wait... Isn't this the plot in the movie?What he did was the script of Qin Qiusheng's character.
Did Qin Qiusheng unintentionally act as his substitute again?
Xie Changle looked at Xu Zhen, who was fidgeting, and blurted out: "Could it be that you like me too?"
Although Xu Zhen said before that he would have a chance after the divorce, Xie Changle thought he was joking.
But Xie Changle is not surprised, after all, in the past two days, people have confessed to him one after another, which has reached the point of numbness.
Xu Zhen gave the answer: "Yes. Since high school, I have envied you. You can do whatever you want, as if nothing can restrain you. You are free."
Xie Changle scratched his head: "But I'm not that good either. I'm just an ordinary person, and the identity of the eldest young master is also fake. Whether it's career or marriage, it's a mess, and..." I can't live for a few more days.
"No." Xu Zhen interrupted him, and said firmly, "It's not a filter, and it has nothing to do with status. Xie Changle, I just like you."
Xie Changle hesitated for a moment, but still said: "Thank you, but I don't like you."
Received a negative answer, but Xu Zhen was not depressed, but relieved.Black-rimmed glasses covered his eyes, leaving only a gentle smile: "I know. I told you this not to get a response, but...to leave something behind, just like this movie."
"In a few years, decades, after I die... Someone who has read "Cicada in Summer" can also understand my feelings and my likes."
Xu Zhen said solemnly, "Thank you."
After finishing the call, Xu Zhen left without any memory.
It was as if he came here this time just to settle the regrets of his youth.
Xie Changle drank a whole glass of iced Americano by himself, it was cold and bitter, which woke him up.
Xu Zhen said he was free, but in fact he was trapped all the time.
Before being trapped in Xie's house, he wanted to get the affirmation of Xie's family; later when he was trapped in Fu's house, he wanted Fu Yixing's response and love; and later, he was trapped in the plot, and he wanted to change his destiny.
In fact, he was not as good as Xu Zhen imagined.
But Xu Zhen was also right.
When people live in this world, they always have to leave some traces to represent that they once existed.
Xie Changle once worked hard for his own destiny, but failed, so looking at it now, it is better to do something instead of waiting to die.
Trapped for so long, in the last days of his life, he should be free.
Xie Changle didn't continue to be decadent, nor did he go back home to shrink back, but went to the studio and started working again.
After all, people are not dead yet, and they still have to eat.
Live a day, work a day.
Xie Changle told himself not to think about the future as much as possible, and to do what he wanted to do, for example, to participate in the soon-to-be fashion design competition - the Grammy Award.In this way, something can be left in the world.
Considering that there was not much time left, he rejected the following orders, even to the point of forgetting to eat and sleep.
knock --
Xie Changle didn't even hear the knock on the door, until someone walked in and called the boss, and then he came back to his senses.He looked up and saw an unfamiliar figure: "Why isn't it Xiao Li?"
The staff who came here are new, they have been busy receiving guests outside, and have not been to Xie Changle's work area yet.
The employee smiled and said, "Brother Li is busy, let me come in and say, someone is looking for the boss."
Xie Changle: "Who is it?"
The employee said, "It's Mr. Qin."
Mr. Qin.
There is nothing else to think about except Qin Qiusheng.
Xie Changle paused for a moment, but was still going to go out to have a look.After all, it was because of him that Qin Qiusheng was dragged into this matter, so I feel a little sorry for Qin Qiusheng.
Also, there are a few things that need to be explained.
"I see." He put down the work at hand, got up and walked out.
After Xie Changle left the studio, the employee did not go out with him.He turned around and walked to the workbench.
There is a stack of papers on the workbench. There are half-drawn manuscripts and some waste manuscripts. You can vaguely see the prototype of the clothes.
The employee looked around and saw that there was no one else, so he took out his mobile phone and clicked to take a picture, even the waste manuscripts were not missed.
After finishing these things, he put everything back in place and walked out as if nothing had happened.
The author has something to say: tomorrow's update will be at 11 pm.
