On the way to the airport, the light rain fell scattered and heavier. The raindrops fell on the car glass and splashed into water. The taillights of the car in front were blurred. The mist covering the car windows was scraped to both sides again and again by the swinging wipers.

Cao Ye felt that his current state was probably not suitable for driving. He was full of Liang Sizhe's mind. As soon as he stopped at the traffic light intersection, he would fall into a state of dazedness. On several occasions, the car behind him sounded several horns before he noticed that the green light had changed.

But he couldn't stop. Since the thought of Liang Sizhe appeared, it became stronger and stronger in his mind.

After more than half of the journey, Cao Ye remembered to call her assistant and asked her to book the earliest flight ticket to Shanghai tonight.

"Tonight?" the assistant seemed to think he had heard it wrong and reminded, "It's raining outside. The flight to Shanghai tonight should be stopped, right?"

Cao Ye realized that he was no longer rational now. He drove all the way in the rain, but he had to wait until someone reminded him to realize that the flight would be delayed in rainy days.

He subconsciously cursed and asked again: "Is there any flights for the high-speed rail?"

The assistant quickly found out the information: "There is another train, and I'll book it for you in an hour?"

After hanging up the phone, Cao Ye turned around and drove to the high-speed rail station. He rushed to the high-speed rail before leaving.

Sitting in the seat, Cao Ye looked at the drizzle outside. The rain was not too fast or slow, but there was no sign of stopping. How was Liang Sizhe doing? Is it raining heavily?

Cao Ye took out his phone and called out the chat interface with Liang Sizhe. He lost a few words: "Is it raining there?" He stared at those words for a while and deleted it, and changed it to "What are you doing?" His thumb hung above the "send", and then deleted it after a while.

It seems that no matter how you ask, the words don't express your meaning.

I can almost think of the news that Liang Sizhe came back - "down" or "reading the script". Then, what should I say?

I wanted to talk to Liang Sizhe, meet and get close, but I was afraid to talk to Liang Sizhe, meet and get close.

It's really contradictory.

Forget it, let’s talk about it when we meet. Cao Ye raised his hand and pressed out the screen, put his phone back in his pocket.

It would be very difficult to drive for more than four hours. Cao Ye used the pad to search for "Liang Sheng Zhu Meng". The score given by the video website was 7.1, which was not a good score. Xu Yunchu said that Liang Sizhe made this movie because of him, and he was a little curious about what kind of story it was.

He watched this movie three months ago in Uto's theater. That day was the first time they met after the breakup. Maybe it was because he was in a bad mood. He didn't watch it that day.

Cao Ye brought his headphones and looked at the pad screen.

The movie begins to enter the picture, and on the distant and blurry stage, two drama actors sing duets with their voices:

"If your brother Liang's marriage is not decided, I will be the matchmaker for you-"

"My dear brother is a matchmaker for me, but I don't know who is the daughter?"

He sang the Yue Opera "Liang Zhu".

At the opening of the film, Cao Ye still remembers that it was a woman in her forties pinching the remote control and squatting on the ground and watching the TV with some conscience.

Then the woman was called back to her senses by a "mom", stood up in a hurry, turned off the TV, and began to surround her teenage daughter. A few minutes later, the woman stood by the window and watched her daughter go downstairs. A boy was standing on a bicycle waiting for her downstairs.

The woman stood in front of the window for a while, suddenly raised her voice and sang carefully: "If you brother Liang is not sure about your marriage, I will be a big match for you--"

There was a sound of footsteps in the room, and the woman's voice didn't stop until the man interrupted her with some difficulty: "The theater has gone bankrupt, are you still singing? In the morning, the confinement nanny company asked you to go for an interview, and whether you can go?"

The delicate opera came to an abrupt end, the woman was stunned and replied: "Go."

Before leaving, the two had a fight again because of a very trivial matter - the man went out to drink last night, but before leaving, he forgot to bring the garbage.

The first half of the film is filled with trivial life details, and men and women are constantly quarreling, compromising, meaninglessly spending time, and torture the audience's patience.

Until the woman became a confinement nanny, she went to the home of a young couple to take care of the pregnant woman after giving birth and the newborn baby. She met the teacher in the theater class there. The teacher held her hand and introduced her to her daughter: "Liang Yan and Zhu Huaishan, that was the golden boy and jade girl from our theater class at that time. She played Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, Liang Zhu on the stage, Zhu Liang off the stage, and Zhu Liang off the stage, and there were all a couple on the stage, which was really envious to others..."

The sound of the story gradually faded away, the camera gradually blurred, and turned to the backstage of the theater. Zhu Huaishan and Liang Yan, who were in their early twenties, were putting on makeup. They were wearing high buns, and they both spoke in a full-minded operatic manner.

They are the most famous celebrities on campus, childhood sweethearts, and love each other. When they were young, their relationship was full of twists and turns, they withstood the resistance of their family, the intervening of outsiders, and their paranoia. When they graduated from the drama class, they were admitted to the two most famous theater troupes in the country. After a big fight, they still sacrificed for each other and went to a private small theater troupe on the local level, and continued to be Liang Zhu on the stage and Zhu Liang off the stage.

The passionate love affair was settled, and the golden boy and jade girl lived a fairy tale life, but were eventually wiped out by life and became the most trivial appearance.

That night, Liang Yan came home from get off work. Before going to bed, she asked Zhu Huaishan a question: "What would Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai become if they did not turn into butterflies in the end, but lived together?"

"What will it become?" Zhu Huaishan, who was about to fall asleep, muttered impatiently, "It will become like us."

A few months later, the two went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to go through the divorce procedures. When they came out of the hall, they were still arguing about their daughter's custody.

The camera gave the two close-ups, taking pictures of their eyes that were bored when they were quarreling and their unconscious lips.

The film ended and the subtitles began to roll. The film was so realistic that it was hard to imagine that Liang Sizhe had spent two years shooting such a story.

To be honest, it is not too bad. The shooting techniques and the transition methods are remarkable, but this story is so realistic that people don’t want to continue watching.

After the film ended, another video automatically popped up, which was a video that Liang Sizhe was interviewed during the release of "Liang Sheng's Dream" three years ago. The box office of this film was not good. At that time, many media mocked Liang Sizhe for taking too much steps and ended up falling apart.

A reporter holding a microphone followed him and asked, "The film is now released for a week, the box office has just exceeded 10 million, and the theaters are also very small. Do you regret spending two years shooting such a work?"

Liang Sizhe, who was walking forward, turned his face and looked at the reporter who asked the question: "Why do you regret it?"

"The box office and reputation are not good, so you shouldn't care about the audience's evaluation at all. After all, the films are shot for people to watch..."

Before he could finish his words, Liang Sizhe interrupted him without looking back and said, "Can I take a picture to save me?" After that, he strode.

It took two years to shoot him... Cao Ye looked at Liang Sizhe's back who was staying on the screen. Why did Liang Sizhe choose such a realistic story to shoot?

Movies are the art of dream creation, but the film made by Liang Sizhe is just to break a beautiful dream for people to see. Liang Sizhe must know that this film will not be the type that the public likes, but he still spent two years shooting it out.

Cao Ye typed the four words "Liang Sheng Zhu Meng" on the search box, clicked on the film review page, and glanced at the most praiseworthy film reviews:

"I just have one suggestion, don't look at it, I'm afraid of marriage if I look at it."

"It's hard to imagine that actor Liang would choose such a realistic subject for two years to vent his life. What was he thinking?"

"What would happen if Liang Zhu didn't turn into a butterfly in the end but lived together? The story of the prince and the princess living happily together...it was terrifying to think about it carefully."

"The film is very sincere, but the movie King Liang has been in so many relationships, but he is so pessimistic about love?"

Cao Ye stared at the comment below and was slightly ecstatic: "This movie has miraculous effects on people who love but cannot get it, because it is breaking love. It may not be that good if you get it. I guess Liang Sizhe is probably like me, with a person who loves but cannot get it, and is trying to persuade himself to let go through this movie."

Take a photo to save yourself.

So Liang Sizhe has been persuading himself to let go in the past few years.

Cao Ye took his phone and looked at the chat interface with Liang Sizhe again. The last message stopped at Cao Ye and asked him if he could borrow the one in the screening room. Liang Sizhe said, "use it." Liang Sizhe never sent a message again since then.

For a moment, a hint of panic came to Cao Ye's heart.

He had never thought of taking another step forward with Liang Sizhe from his friend's relationship, but now he learned that Liang Sizhe might let go of his hand and retreat at any time, he was a little at a loss.

Yin Si changed, Lan Yan was demolished, Xiao Xiaobai was gone, and the contacts ten years ago seemed to have been cut off bit by bit by bit by bit by bit by bit - could Liang Sizhe choose to let go just now when he discovered that he liked Liang Sizhe?

After leaving the high-speed rail station, the heavy rain in Shanghai spilled on her body like a pouring rain. Cao Ye didn't bring an umbrella, and his whole body became wet the moment he stepped out.

He called a car with his cell phone, opened the door and sat in. The driver turned around and handed him a tissue: "This rain is heavy enough."

Cao Ye didn't say anything. He looked at the raindrops knocking on the car window and suddenly thought of the umbrella that Liang Sizhe was holding onto him on the set of "Darkest Choice" two months ago.

The car was driving on the road, like splitting the rain curtains all over the sky.

Sitting in the car, Cao Ye felt like he was galloping in his dream. Ten years ago they were in Yinsi, and the rain fell so hard that night. They were bored at Lan Yan for a day, discussing the script of "Thirteen Days" with one word and one word, and not bored at all.

In this flash, ten years have passed.

He thought of the ten years he had known Liang Sizhe—

In the backstage of the Golden Horse Awards, he leaned against the pillar and talked to his friends, pretending not to see Liang Sizhe, but he couldn't help but look at him and then look again. However, when Liang Sizhe turned around and avoided his gaze when he turned around.

After playing the producer of "Quarantine", Liang Sizhe blocked his face with his fingers through the crowd. At that moment, the faint smell of red wine on his fingers, the slightly cool temperature of his palms, and the sour and swelling feeling that it surged to his chest. He still remembered it very clearly after many years.

On the night of the break, he fell asleep briefly for a while, and then dreamed that Liang Sizhe suddenly came to find him and said that he would not act in Cao Xiuyuan's film. At that moment, he fell into great ecstasy, and then instinctively felt that he was dreaming. When he woke up, he found that it was really just a dream. He was stunned in the dark for a long time, feeling his chest empty.

In the next five years, he deliberately avoided all the news about Liang Sizhe and had a relationship after another. Everyone around him knew that they could not mention Liang Sizhe in front of him, so that Cheng Duan joked that Liang Sizhe and Cao Xiuyuan were two untouchable scales on his body.

It's ridiculous to think about it. He has unconsciously liked Liang Sizhe for so many years, but he still deceived himself without realizing anything.

What have you been doing these years, Cao Ye? Three months ago, flirting with Lin Huan in front of Liang Sizhe, and one month ago, Qin Zhenzhen and Liang Sizhe were arranged to a crew. After doing so many ridiculous things, why should Liang Sizhe stay where he is waiting for you?

The car parked at the hotel door. The driver turned around and was about to take him out with an umbrella, but he saw that Cao Ye had already pushed the door and got out of the car.

When he entered the hotel lobby, the doorman opened the door for him, and the guests waiting in the lobby looked at him.

Only then did Cao Ye realize how embarrassed he was all wet.

Forget it, Liang Sizhe had seen her in such a embarrassing appearance. Cao Ye took out his cell phone and called Liang Sizhe.

The phone rang a few times before it was connected, and Liang Sizhe said on the other end: "Cao Ye?"

"Liang Sizhe," Cao Ye tried his best to make his tone sound calmer, "I'm in the hotel lobby, please let Song Qingyan pick me up."

"Are you coming to Shanghai?" Liang Sizhe seemed slightly stunned, and then replied, "Okay, you can wait a moment."

After hanging up the phone, Cao Ye stood in the hotel lobby in a daze. He ran over when his head was hot, but what would he say after seeing Liang Sizhe? Do you think he likes you? But he seemed to have not yet prepared to take this step from his friend and become a homosexual.

I was upset. I was afraid of going further, I was afraid of staying there, and I was even more afraid of Liang Sizhe suddenly retreating.

Before he could figure out the thoughts in his mind, Cao Ye saw Liang Sizhe coming.

Liang Sizhe did not let Song Qingyan come down, so he went to the hotel lobby to pick up Cao Ye.

He only wore a black mask and walked towards Cao Ye, stopped in front of him and looked at him, his eyes looking dark.

A few people turned around in the hotel lobby, but Liang Sizhe ignored it.

He won the bet. Liang Sizhe looked at Cao Ye, who was soaked all over.

His boy was like a wet puppy, waiting for him in dismay.

"Go upstairs." Liang Sizhe raised his hand and held Cao Ye's wrist. Cao Ye did not hide and let him lead him forward.
To be continued...
