Chapter 58
The road in the mountains is uneven, and the assistant replied in a low voice, "Mr. Pei, there is still about an hour's drive."
"Well, I see." Pei Musi looked uncomfortable, leaned on the car seat, opened the window and closed his eyes.
He didn't want to come to this damn place again.
It was getting late, and the vehicle finally arrived at the gate of the film and television city. The person in charge of the crew did not know where he had received the news, and he was already waiting there.
After getting out of the car, Pei Musi covered his stomach and asked the assistant, "How did he know I was coming?"
The assistant replied: "Because the crew has booked the entire hotel, when I booked a room just now, the hotel front desk said that there are no vacancies. If you want to stay, you need to discuss it with the crew."
"Yes, I see." Pei Musi nodded slightly towards the person in charge, as a greeting.The person in charge is surnamed Wang, who is the producer and director of "Feng Prison".Seeing Pei Musi smiling, he took the patron's father to the hotel near the studio.
Pei Musi walked very slowly, the contents of his stomach were overwhelmed, and his complexion was getting worse and worse.
Producer Wang asked worriedly: "President Pei, what's wrong with you?"
"It's nothing, I'm a little motion sick." While speaking, several people had already walked to the hotel entrance.Pei Musi said, "Go ahead and do the work, I'll check in by myself."
"Okay." Producer Wang handed the room card to the assistant, "I think you are exhausted after a long journey. You should rest first. When you recover tomorrow, you will go to the set to inspect the work."
"Hmm." Pei Musi asked, "Are the actors still filming?"
Producer Wang nodded: "Yes, they estimate that it will end at ten o'clock in the evening."
Walking into the hotel, although Pei Musi's room was already considered to be of the highest quality, it was still far from the five-star presidential suite.
The assistant frowned slightly: "Mr. Pei, why don't I find you a new hotel tomorrow? It's a bit broken here."
Pei Musi took off his suit jacket, pressed the space between his eyebrows wearily: "No, just live here."
This afternoon, the assistant suddenly received a notice that he was going on a business trip with Pei Musi. Pei Musi did not specify the content.At present, it seems that it should only inspect the company's film and television projects.
After casually eating a few mouthfuls of hot porridge, Pei Musi glanced at the clock on the wall, and decided to go to the set first.
The hotel is very close to the studio, you can walk there in a few minutes.
Walking along the quaint buildings, Pei Musi saw Xinglan standing in the center of the studio filming at a glance.
The surrounding lights are very bright, and the character played by Xinglan is kneeling on the gravel road to be punished.
The actor in front of him was over fifty, so he should be Xing Lan's father or elder in the play.Holding the ring stick in his hand, he ruthlessly swung it towards Xinglan.
The role played by Xing Lan is a young master of the villa who does not eat the fireworks of the world. He is free and easy, and simply ignorant of world affairs.After meeting the heroine he likes, he sneaks down to the villa and gets involved in disputes in the rivers and lakes and the court.
"The role of Xinglan is already lovable, so far he has played this role, and he must be loved by the audience." Through the camera, the director looked at Xinglan's still stubborn and unyielding eyes through the camera, and said with relief Said.
This was the first time that Pei Musi watched Xinglan filming. Xinglan was very serious on the set. Even though there were beads of sweat on his cheeks, he still knelt straight and straightened his back again and again.
At this time, Producer Wang spotted Pei Musi, quickly brought a chair for him to sit down, and motioned for the director.
"You guys continue to shoot, don't take care of me." In the dark night, Pei Musi's eyes fell on Xinglan, and he didn't move for a moment.
"Is that actor really playing Xinglan?" Pei Musi asked suddenly.The director explained: "There was no real fight. In order to seek truth, Xing Xing asked the other party to really fight, but we considered that his back had an old injury, so we rejected his request."
"Back..." Pei Musi pursed his thin lips, and opened his mouth several times: "Do you know how he got hurt?"
The director shook his head: "I don't know. When Xingxing's manager sent him here, he told us that Xingxing's physical examination report was not healthy. He had serious old injuries on his back and some problems with his eyes. He couldn't be exposed to strong light."
Pei Musi held the armrest of the chair tightly with his palm, and there was a trace of worry and bewilderment between his brows.
Was the eye and the back hurt in revenge?
Seeing that Xinglan was alive and kicking after he came back, and when he changed the pajamas for the drunk Xinglan that day, he didn't see any other scars on his body, so he naively thought that the road to revenge was not as difficult as he imagined.
Xing Lan didn't tell him, and he didn't even ask.
With such a severe back and eye injury, then...
Suddenly, Pei Musi's face changed slightly, and his breathing gradually became unstable.
At this time, the field manager shouted angrily: "Card!"
Pei Musi came back to his senses, and saw that Xinglan had been helped up by his assistant, and was limping towards the rest area.
"Xing Xing is really dedicated." Producer Wang praised, "I have been here just now. The props team originally prepared cotton pads for him to wrap his knees in this scene, but Xing Xing's robe is more elegant and close-fitting, and it cannot completely Covering the cotton pad, for the sake of perfection, he refused. In fact, these can be removed in the later stage."
"Well, he has always liked acting." Pei Musi lowered his eyes and said in a low voice.
The night scene was finally filmed after 3 hours.When the play was over, Xing Lan was still listening to the chat with the heroine's team, and only then did she know that Pei Musi had come.
"Why did Boss Pei come here suddenly?"
"It's normal. Our TV series is an important project of the Pei family this year. Mr. Pei came to inspect it in person."
Hearing this, Xinglan turned her head to look for it, and when she raised her head, she instantly met Pei Musi's eyes.Suddenly, he dodged his eyes, retracted his gaze, packed his backpack, and walked towards the hotel.
He is not feeling well today, and he can't eat a few mouthfuls of lunch, so don't waste it.The temperature in the mountains is very cold. His forehead felt a little hot when he got up this morning. It should be a low-grade fever caused by a cold.
I swallowed a few pills wholeheartedly, but the effect is mediocre. Now my forehead seems to be hotter than in the morning, and I feel drowsy.
"Actors can go to the scene manager to get lunch." The director shouted with a loudspeaker, "Mr. Pei, have you had dinner tonight? Otherwise, we will take you to a nearby restaurant?"
Pei Musi shook his head: "No, just eat whatever you want."
When Xing Lan just left, she didn't seem to have received a lunch box.Pei Musi took two copies, put them in his bag and walked towards the hotel.
In the room, Xing Lan was exhausted, sitting on the sofa and gently rolled up his pants, exposing his purple knees.
The assistant was prescribing medicine for him, and said distressedly: "The director said that he can P in the later stage, why not let them PS?"
"Although I don't understand post-production PS, it must be time-consuming. I'm just the third male lead. If the production team is busy with work, they may not care so much about the details of my body. PS for me." Xing Lan sighed softly , "Fortunately, the director is very satisfied."
"You're really trying too hard." The assistant put on the bottle of medicinal wine, "I've been with many newcomers, and everyone was either impetuous and delusional, or they were filming and paddling, thinking that their roles were not important anyway. You are the only one who Dedicated and down-to-earth.”
Xing Lan smiled slightly: "Because I want to be popular. This way I can make a lot of money and increase my reputation."
"Haha." The assistant blinked, "One more thing, you are very honest, just say what you have."
It was already very late today, the assistant gave Xing Lan the medicine and left the room, ready to go to sleep.Coincidentally, he happened to run into Pei Musi in the elevator.
"Hello, Mr. Pei!" Assistant An held her breath and said respectfully.
"Are you Xinglan's assistant?" Pei Musi stepped out of the elevator, "Is his leg injured?"
The assistant told the truth: "The skin on the knee has been worn out, and there are many bruises."
"Thank you." Pei Musi walked a few steps, then turned around and asked, "Do you know how Xinglan's back was injured?"
The assistant scratched his head: "I don't know. Since I took over Xingxing, his back has not been very good, and he often suffers from pain."
"Okay, I see." Pei Musi carried the lunch bag and walked towards Xinglan's room.
After the assistant left, Xing Lan sat blankly on the sofa without moving.
Leg pain was one thing, but he was thinking about Pei Musi on the other hand.
Pei Musi's sudden arrival today is because of him?
"Of course not, he just came to work." Xing Lan muttered softly, "He won't come to see me."
At this time, the bedroom door rang.Xing Lan thought it was an assistant, and shouted, "Did you forget something?"
The door was quiet for a while, and then a familiar voice sounded: "Meal delivery."
Staring blankly, Xing Lan hastily put on her slippers and staggered towards the door.He had just had his hair cover removed by the makeup artist, but his clothes hadn't been changed yet.His hand was already on the doorknob, and he was about to turn it when he suddenly remembered something and his eyes dimmed.
Standing outside the door, Pei Musi had already heard the sound of the door lock being turned, but the sound suddenly disappeared again.
After a long time, a muffled voice came from inside the room: "Why did you bring me food all of a sudden?"
Pei Musi: "Because you didn't receive the lunch box, the director asked me to bring it to you."
"So that's how it is." Xing Lan took a small step back and said through the door, "Take it back, I'm not hungry."
"In the past, after evening self-study, after you had dinner at school, you would clamor for a late-night supper when you came home. Why did you eat less when you grew up?" Pei Musi naturally knew that Xinglan was quarreling with him over the blind date, so he carried the boxed lunch Leaning in front of the door, he lazily said: "After filming for so long, aren't you hungry?"
Xing Lan's chest felt tight, her forehead was getting hotter and hotter, and her breathing was not smooth. "Do you still remember what happened seven years ago? I thought you had forgotten it."
"Ang." Pei Musi rested his head on the wall, "Remember a little bit."
"Do you just remember a little?" Xing Lan sat down at the door, feeling weak all over, answering his first question.
"Of course it will change a lot when I grow up. It's like seven years later, I still like you, but you don't like me anymore."
The heart seemed to be pierced by a needle, and Pei Musi was shocked, and turned around to face the door with an expression on his face.
Xinglan rested her head on Ziqing's lap, her nose murmured and she choked up a little: "Still...you didn't like me much seven years ago."
These words fell into Pei Musi's ears and turned into dense tingling pains that spread throughout his body.
His expression changed instantly, ignoring the stars of the crew in the surrounding room, he shouted coldly: "Xinglan! Open the door!"
"What do you open the door for?" Xing Lan rubbed her sore nose and muttered, "Do you think it's fun to play me like this?"
"Tricking you?" Pei Musi threw the boxed lunch on the ground, shook the doorknob vigorously, his voice was bone-chillingly cold, "Why did I trick you?"
Xinglan pressed against her hot forehead, tears fell down her eyes and onto her knees.He was wronged and said, "Because you treat me good and bad."
"It's obvious that you like my appearance, but you turn around and eat with your blind date. Are you chatting with several blind dates at the same time? Allocate time to chat with them every day?"
"You are like this, I can't tell whether you still like me or not."
The atmosphere fell into a moment of silence, and the door of the room on the right opened with a click, revealing half of a person's head.Pei Musi lowered his head and glanced coldly, the man immediately withdrew his head and closed the door with a "snap".
"Xinglan, have I always been this kind of person in your heart?" Pei Musi spit out a few words softly, "I want to get in touch with my blind date, and when you come back, I wish my child could be soy sauce! You Do you think I can still be like this?"
"But you have been hanging on me and refused to give me permission. Even if you are a prisoner, at least you have to serve your sentence. Whether it is death sentence or fixed-term imprisonment, can you give me a clear answer?"
Xing Lan was crying weakly, she had already lost the strength to cry.
"I just care about you and that Su Yuan! I want to ask you, but I dare not. I'm not your boyfriend, so what position should I take to ask you?"
"You open the door first." Pei Musi's voice was exceptionally calm, "I'll go in and talk to you."
"No." Xing Lan said in a muffled voice, "Since high school, I have always been the one who actively pursued you, stalked you, and liked you. Sometimes I need to act like a baby all the time before you tell me that you like me."
"So." Pei Musi asked in a low voice: "Since you are so dissatisfied with me, why do you still come to me after seven years?"
"But I just like you." Xing Lan rubbed his eyes and cried louder and louder, "This kind of thing is beyond control. If I could choose, I would rather never come to this place. It doesn't matter, it's better to live in the demon world and be a beggar monster who has no heart to pick up trash."
Pei Musi gently wiped the corners of his eyes, and asked calmly: "It's okay if you really regret meeting me. I can disappear now, so that you will never see me."
Xing Lan clenched her fist and knocked on the door: "Then you go, I will never pester you again. I will return to the demon world later, be a noble little prince, and forget about you."
Pei Musi's eyes turned red: "Yes, no problem."
After speaking, he turned around resolutely and walked away.
The footsteps outside the door got farther and farther away, Xing Lan staggered grabbing the door handle, yanked the door open and shouted at Pei Musi: "I'm not going back. I'm going to stay here and be a star, wait until I get popular From now on, I'll go date a little brother who is [-] times more handsome than you!"
In front of the elevator door, Pei Musi clenched his fists, stepped into the elevator with a livid face, and shouted tremblingly: "Do you want to find it or not!"
The corridor completely returned to silence, Xinglan lay her head on the cold door, sobbing slightly.
At this time, the elevator door in the corridor opened.
Immediately afterwards, the sound of footsteps became more and more urgent, and the sound became louder and louder.
The door suddenly "jingled" and opened slowly.
Xing Lan raised her head suddenly, her pale cheeks were stained with tears.
Holding the room card, Pei Musi looked at him condescendingly: "You want to find little brother, right?"
Xing Lan crawled a few steps on the ground, then quickly got up and sat on the sofa: "Yes, I specially pick someone who is more handsome than you. I have decided that I will never like you again."
Pei Musi breathed a deep sigh of relief, sat next to Xinglan, and tried his best to control his tone: "I really have nothing to do with Su Yuan. He is a blind date arranged by my father. We only met once, and even the contact information They didn't stay. The last time you saw the two of us in the cafeteria, it was a normal cooperation between the companies, and I didn't expect his father to hand over that cooperation case to him. "
Xing Lan covered her ears, moved her butt slightly, and turned her back to Pei Musi.
It means refusing to communicate.
Pei Musi looked at the back of his head, and continued to calmly say: "I have been on a blind date before, and it was arranged by my dad. I haven't been in a relationship for so many years. After I turned 25, my dad became anxious, so he frequently introduced me to him. Blind date. I didn’t go on the first two occasions, but my dad called repeatedly to urge me. Later, in order to keep my ears clean, I would go on a blind date as scheduled, but every time I rejected the blind date.”
The hand holding the ear was gradually loosened, Xing Lan was slightly in a trance.
He asked in a low voice, "Why did you refuse? Is there no good-looking one or something you like?"
"There are good ones, but none I like." Pei Musi replied.
"Why don't you like them?" Xing Lan continued to ask.
After a long sigh, Pei Musi parted his thin lips slightly: "Because I have always missed you in my heart, and I can't forget you. Director Ji forced me to use amnestic twice, but every time I can think of you. "
"That sounds good. Since you miss me so much, why have you been treating me coldly since I came back?" Xing Lan murmured, choked with sobs, "You have no idea how sad I am."
"Xingxing." Pei Musi moved forward slightly, and just about to wrap his arms around Xinglan's shoulders, Xinglan suddenly jumped up, swayed to the bed, and huddled under the quilt to cover his head.
Pei Musi was helpless, so he had no choice but to go over and continue, "You left secretly back then, and I didn't go looking for someone else behind your back. Now that you're back, you can't let me down and go out to find other wild men."
A small foot suddenly appeared outside the quilt, Xing Lan hid inside and gradually became short of breath, his face was slightly hot.He said softly, "I'm already sad now. A broken heart is just shards of glass, and you can't make it up."
"Xinglan." Pei Musi touched his feet, "I've already explained to you about the blind date. Can you please stop making trouble?"
"Impossible." Xinglan retracted her feet, her eyelids became heavier and heavier, "Anyway... Anyway, I can't... You have the final say on everything."
Pei Musi stared at the quilt and asked in a low voice: "Then what do you want?" After a long time, there was no reply from the quilt.
He sat on the edge of the bed, slightly tugging at the corner of the quilt: "Xing Xing, I was wrong before, I lied to you and lost my memory. Can you...can you..."
Staring at the thick quilt, he suddenly felt something was wrong.
It was lifted violently, only revealing Xinglan's flushed cheeks.
......
In the ward, Xinglan was burnt and confused, muttering non-stop.
At first, Pei Musi was worried that Xinglan could not be injected with human medicine, but seeing his gradually dropping body temperature, he felt relieved.
Xinglan had been muttering for half an hour, Pei Musi leaned over curiously, and leaned down slightly.
"Dare to hit me, Mumu... I'll fight with you..."
When Xing Lan woke up, there was a vast expanse of whiteness in front of her.
Pei Musi came in from outside the ward with porridge and saw that he was already awake, so he said, "You have a fever, you just finished the infusion."
Xing Lan glanced at him with her round eyes, then turned her head away and stopped looking at him.
"Eat the porridge first and then ignore me." Pei Musi walked around the bed and walked across to Xinglan. "The doctor said that if you are sick, you need to eat to get well."
"Take it back, I won't eat the meal you sent." Xing Lan supported the quilt with both hands, closed her eyes: "I'll wait for my assistant to bring me the meal."
Helpless, Pei Musi put down the porridge bowl and sat quietly aside.
"Didn't you say that you have been taking the initiative since high school? It really doesn't work, let's switch, and I will take the initiative in the future."
Xinglan suddenly showed her small head: "You mean... are you going to pursue me?"
Pei Musi said "Yes", "If you want to understand it that way, it's fine."
The corner of Xing Lan's mouth flickered, a carp sat up straight on the bed, rummaged through the box and took out a piece of white paper and a pen from the cabinet next to it.
"Cough cough." Even though the back of Xing Lan's hand was severely swollen due to the infusion, he was still writing on the paper with great interest.
"This is the scoring sheet for pursuing me." He picked it up and raised his earnest cheeks. "Do something that satisfies me, and I can add points as appropriate. Add 99 points, and I will fall in love with you."
Pei Musi felt it was ridiculous, chuckled, and slightly rolled up his sleeves.
"How many points can I get for buying porridge for you?"
