Chapter 77

Liang Sizhe felt that he hadn't been so happy in the past two years.

During the more than a year when filming "Thirteen Days", he was stuck in a depressed mood all day long. After the film was completed, he still couldn't get out of the role. When he fell in love with Hu Yus, he was not so bad. Hu Yus was quite mature and had a lively personality. He always tried every means to make him happy, but that kind of happiness flashed like a glimpse of light, and it was a matter of a moment.

He was very happy to be the actor at that moment, but Cao Ye was avoiding him that night, and he didn't know how happy he was.

But at this moment, sitting by the secluded street with Cao Ye, watching the streets and alleys they walked through countless times two years ago, he felt happy from the bottom of his heart. Even he was drunk just right, so he could indulge himself in not thinking about what he had to face after sobering up.

There is only one thing. Cao Ye seems to be in a bad mood. The boy who was always carefree two years ago is now frowning and looks full of worries.

Liang Sizhe guessed that he probably exposed his love in his heart too obviously, so he should restrain himself and let Cao Ye be more comfortable with him. Cao Ye should still be willing to treat him as a friend, otherwise how could he stand up for him just now?

Liang Sizhe bent down, pressed the cigarette that had been pumped halfway into his hand to the ground and slammed it out. He stood up and looked at Cao Ye: "Where are you staying at night?"

"Me?" Cao Ye was thinking about the next countermeasure, and he heard this and said, "I live with my friend."

"Will you stay in Lan Banquet tonight?" Liang Sizhe looked at him and asked.

Cao Ye was stunned: "...There are too many people."

"There are very few people after two o'clock. As for the Blue Banquet after three o'clock, it seems like no one is staying at the Blue Banquet. You have lived there, you won't forget it, right?"

"Oh, I haven't forgotten... OK." Cao Ye said. Staying with Liang Sizhe, it seems like he has returned to the time of Yin Si. Anyway, Liang Sizhe has not cooperated with Cao Xiuyuan and Zheng Yin now. Cao Ye thought that there was no reason for him to continue to take his anger on Liang Sizhe.

At 2:30 in the morning, they got up from the wooden chair and turned into Yinsi.

All night market stalls were collected. Not long ago, the noisy fireworks seemed to have not dissipated. The kind of a bit greasy and heavy air was not really pleasant to smell, but the familiarity it brought made Liang Sizhe feel comfortable physically and mentally. It seemed that he hadn't relaxed for a long time, so he didn't have to worry about secret photos or paparazzi.

There were dim lights in the hall of Lanyan, and figures were shaking on the curtains behind the glass windows, probably because the waiter was doing the finishing cleaning work.

They stepped up the steps and pushed the door in. The waiter changed a new person. He was bent down and mopping the floor. After hearing the movement, he looked up at them: "It's closed, no longer accepting guests."

"Is the boss's wife sleeping?" Liang Sizhe asked.

"In the inner room, do you have something to do with her?" The man looked at Liang Sizhe, probably because he thought he looked familiar.

When the boss heard the movement outside, he poked his head out of the inner room: "I'm so late and I'm still here-" Halfway through the words, he shouted in surprise and joy, "Oh, why are you two?" He walked out and looked them back and forth, and said with a tickling voice, "Are you all taller? This big star young man, how can I tolerate you two here? This relationship is as good as before. Why did you think of coming to live here tonight?"

"Come here to have a look." Liang Sizhe said, "Auntie, is there anyone living in the room on the third floor now?"

"No, there are a few people who come here who can afford such a large room."

"Then we still live in that room, okay?" Liang Sizhe asked, but turned his face to look at Cao Ye.

"Whatever." Cao Ye said.

"What's wrong with that?" The proprietress turned her head and called the waiter upstairs to clean up the room, saying that the bed sheets and toiletries were all the best, and then turned her face to look at them, "Why do you two seem to have changed?" She spoke straight and said whatever she thought of, "I remember that the big stars didn't like to talk at that time, the young master was lively. Now, this young master Cao didn't like to talk anymore?"

Cao Ye was thinking a little worriedly about how to end the matter. After hearing what the boss said, he forced a smile: "Where is there, aunt?"

The boss lady pulled them to chat for a while, and the room upstairs was tidying up, and she led them upstairs: "Let's go, I've been tidying up, and I'm still the same as before." She walked in front, and seemed to have gained weight in the past two years. She was panting when she walked through the corridor and pushed open the door, and raised her chin into the room. "Here, the air conditioner she had was still there."

Liang Sizhe walked in and looked at the room.

At first glance, the room has not changed much, but you can still see the traces of time passing by carefully looking.

The dark blue brand new air conditioner was slightly faded by the sun, and the white paint on the cabinets attached to the wall turned yellow, but the two beds with white sheets were still the same, one against the window and the other against the wall.

The boss lady brought the door and the two of them were left in the room. Without further ado, they both knew which bed they should sleep in.

Cao Ye sat down and took out his cell phone. He was wondering if he would send a message to Lin Yan and asked him how he would end next.

Liang Sizhe sat opposite him, looked at him and asked, "What's wrong? What's wrong with me? Tell me about anything unhappy?"

Cao Ye is indeed not that happy.

He was thinking about what to do next, and his powerlessness after impulse made him feel more and more irritable the more he thought about it.

He couldn't help but raise his eyes and asked Liang Sizhe: "That movie... is it okay if you don't act?" After asking, he felt like he asked nonsense. How did Liang Sizhe answer this?

Unexpectedly, Liang Sizhe seemed to be careless and said: "It's okay, I don't want to act in that movie anymore."

Cao Ye looked at him with some disbelief.

Liang Sizhe said it quite like that: "The film was taken at that time because the script was good. Later, there were several times when the crew was not funded enough. The plot changed several places and it was almost collapsed. Not acting might be a good thing."

"Really?" Cao Ye began to believe and half-doubt. He really felt that the crew of such a producer could not make any good movies.

"What do you lie to you?" Liang Sizhe said with a smile, looking at him and asked, "Cao Ye, are you going to college?"

"Yeah." Cao Ye said.

"I heard from Uncle Yin that you are learning movies?"

Cao Ye said "hmm" again.

"Then we can really cooperate in the future. Is college fun?"

"Nothing fun," Cao Ye said, "just...because it's more free."

"Oh, I haven't even been to college," Liang Sizhe sighed, lowered his eyes, as if he was thinking about something. After a while, he asked again, "Is it very rustic?"

Cao Ye looked up at him, and they looked at each other for a moment, and then the two of them turned their faces inexplicably and laughed. Liang Sizhe was laughing at what Liang Sizhe was laughing at. He just thought Liang Sizhe's statement was quite fun. He had already won the Best Actor, but he still cared about not going to college. When this conversation was spread, I don't know what others would think...

Just as he was thinking, Liang Sizhe suddenly raised his hand and touched his hair.

"Hey—" Cao Ye raised his hand and grabbed his wrist reflexively.

"Oh, I forgot, I can't touch your head," Liang Sizhe said innocently, "You have to understand that a drunk person has a bad memory."

Cao Ye took his hand off his head and loosened his wrist. He looked at Liang Sizhe. I don’t know if it was because of drunkenness. Liang Sizhe’s eyes seemed to be filled with water, and his lips looked particularly rosy. His face looked a little bright, as if he had rouge on the corners of his eyes and lips.

For some reason, Cao Ye felt that he was starting to feel upset again.

Liang Sizhe has obviously stopped cooperating with Cao Xiuyuan and Zheng Yin, how could he still feel upset when he sees him? What are you upset about?

I was upset but couldn't help but want to see him, which made Cao Ye feel even more irritable.

The scene he saw more than a year ago flashed through his mind, the scene of Cao Xiuyuan and Zheng Yin overlapping naked, and then his face changed instantly.

"What's wrong?" Liang Sizhe also saw that something was wrong with him.

Cao Ye shook his head, got up and went to the bathroom, and wanted to vomit again. How could he suddenly think of that scene?

"It's nothing, I'll go take a shower." Cao Ye said, and he quickly walked towards the bathroom, stepped in and brought the door with his backhand.

Standing in front of the toilet, the feeling of vomiting seemed to be pressing down again. Compared to his previous strong reaction, he was much better now.

Liang Sizhe sat in the back, took the pillow and placed it behind him, and leaned sideways against the head of the bed.

Cao Ye's reaction was the same as he expected. When he took a step forward, he took a step back. If he forced himself hard, he would also feel physical disgust and disgust.

The feeling of happiness in his brain gradually sank to the bottom. Liang Sizhe thought clearly that maybe he shouldn't have met Cao Ye too much. Cao Ye was like a large dose of stimulant to him, which made him extremely happy in a short period of time, but what followed was an empty feeling that could not be broken free.

When he didn't see Cao Ye, he could act, live, and fall in love step by step. Once he met Cao Ye, he would feel that such a step-by-step life was really meaningless.

You cannot indulge yourself indulge in it, but you still have to act, get into the show, keep yourself busy, win a movie hero, prove it to those who swear badly, and let them admit that they are wrong in person.

After awakening from that feeling of addiction, Liang Sizhe began to think about how to deal with this matter tonight.

Although Cao Ye just said in the hotel that he would not act in that movie, since he was halfway through filming, the hard work of hundreds of people in the crew could not be given up halfway. Deputy Director Uncle Xu, Camera Brother Lei, and Xiaowei from the props team usually get along well with him. He knows how much hard work they have put in for this movie. If he really doesn't act, he will be really sorry.

What's more, he is the most important star in "The Quarantine". He is indispensable in this film in terms of roles, acting skills, and discussion, so the producers shouldn't really terminate the contract with him because of this incident tonight.

But since this incident happened tonight, the producer should not miss the opportunity to make things difficult for him, such as asking him to accompany Mr. Yu to drink again... I was really irritable. How could this circle be so messy? Thanks to the fact that it was not Cao Ye who entered this circle... This idea was immediately rejected by Liang Sizhe himself. Cao Ye is Cao Xiuyuan's son. Who in this circle dared to let him accompany him to drink?

Forget it, it really doesn't work, just apologize to the producer. Brother Hua treats him well and shouldn't have to force him to jump into the fire pit. Liang Sizhe closed his eyes and thought.

After Cao Ye finished washing up, he came out of the bathroom. Liang Sizhe turned his head and leaned against the bed, closed his eyes, as if he was asleep.

He stood at the end of the bed and looked at Liang Sizhe, wondering why he felt upset.

Then Liang Sizhe opened his eyes suddenly, Cao Ye's heart suddenly jumped heavily. He looked away uneasy and walked towards his bed: "I'm finished washing, you go quickly."

Liang Sizhe turned his face and looked at him. He found that even though he knew that Cao Ye didn't like him and was hiding from him, he felt very happy to be with Cao Ye, and he couldn't control it.

Alas, he sighed almost inauspiciously, then got up and went to wash.

Neither of them set the alarm clock. The next morning, they slept until nine o'clock, and suddenly someone slapped the door outside hard. They were both asleep, and at the same time, they were awakened and opened their eyes, looking at each other in a daze.

"Who?" Cao Ye supported himself and asked in a hoarse voice.

"I," the proprietress's voice rang outside the door, "Are you awake, big star? Get up and read the newspaper quickly."

"Oh." Liang Sizhe responded, sat up slowly, raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, put his legs on the ground, and opened the door with disposable slippers: "What newspaper?"

"Look at this..." The proprietress handed the newspaper to him, pointing to the huge title for him to see - "Liang Sizhe's hotel dry-raised producer, let's stop performing in "Quarantine Area". There are two pictures, one is a vague surveillance screenshot, Cao Ye pulled the producer's collar and pressed him against the wall, and the other was outside the hotel. Liang Sizhe reached out to cover Cao Ye's face and walked forward side by side with him.

"You--" The proprietress was about to sing loudly, but Liang Sizhe gave a food instruction in front of her lips to keep her silent.

Then he brought the door, pulled the boss's wife away a little, and leaned against the windowsill to read the content of the report.

The boss lady lowered her voice: "Did you cause a big disaster and come here to hide?"

"Yes." Liang Sizhe smiled.

The report did not write about the reasons for the conflict, and Cao Ye did not mention it at all. It only said that Liang Sizhe beat the producer with his friends and stopped acting in the film "The Quarantine Area", which has been halfway through. As for the reason for the cancellation, the producer said, "Maybe it was because the crew did not have money to meet his shooting requirements."

This is the worst development. Liang Sizhe didn't think deeply about this direction last night. It was not that he didn't expect this possibility, but that he felt that it would not be. After all, before that, his relationship with the producer was pretty good.

But the producer's idea is different from his. Exposure of this matter will make sure to make a profit for the producer. First, it can calm the investors who were dumped last night. Second, if Liang Sizhe's reputation is ruined, no one in the circle dares to act as an actor in a short period of time, and Liang Sizhe can only continue to act in this film. Third, if Liang Sizhe has the backbone and is sure to stop acting, it doesn't matter. The three-fold penalty for liquidated damages is enough to allow the crew to hire another actor with the same pay, and there is still a lot of filming funds left. The most important thing is that after this exposure, the popularity and discussion of the film have increased, and there is no need to worry about the later publicity.

Liang Sizhe took out the entertainment version and returned the remaining stack of newspapers to the boss's wife.

Someone called the boss lady downstairs. Maybe something happened. The boss lady greeted him, turned around and went down the stairs. Liang Sizhe read the report again, then tore the newspaper and stuffed it into the trash can.

Seeing that there was no movement outside for a while, Cao Ye guessed that the newspaper should have reported what happened last night. He got up and put on slippers, opened the door and poked his head out: "What is the newspaper written?"

All the newspapers torn into pieces in the palm of his hand fell into the trash can. Liang Sizhe withdrew his hand and turned his head to look at Cao Ye: "It's okay, I've written nonsense," he walked over, took Cao Ye's shoulder, and quickly let go, "Let's sleep for a while."

After entering the room, Liang Sizhe took his cell phone from the bed and walked towards the bathroom: "I'll wash up first."
