Chapter 73 - Jealousy

Xia Xiqing was so exhausted that he pulled out the recliner and lay down on the recliner as soon as he entered the dressing room. The makeup artist gently removed his makeup and found that he had already fallen asleep, so he could only close the door quietly for him to rest for a while.

He woke up from the heat later, he didn’t know how long he had slept, his throat was dry and itchy, he rubbed his eyes and got up from the chair, and drank the bottle of water on the dressing table in one gulp. For some reason, he was covered with a thin blanket.

Probably covered it with a smile. Xia Xiqing lifted the blanket. The room was stuffy and hot. He picked up the hair on the nape of his neck, tied it up a little, and pushed the door out. It was not far from the studio, and it was only two hundred meters away.

As soon as he got close, Xia Xiqing heard the voice of the field manager yelling. Xiaoxiao saw him from a distance, and ran towards him, “Xi Qing, are you feeling better? I brought you some candy just now, to replenish your strength, here.”

Xia Xiqing glanced at the raspberry-flavored lollipop in her hand, “Where did you get it?”

“In Ronaldinho’s car, the small refrigerator in their nanny’s car is full of candy, so I just took a few,” Xiaoxiao peeled off the lollipop wrapper and handed it over. Xia Xiqing didn’t refuse, and stuffed it into his mouth .

“Ziheng and the others are about to finish. Do you want to wait for him?”

It’s really sweet, sweet. Xia Xiqing slept a little dazedly, and only now recalling the way Zhou Ziheng was stuck with that Song Nian just now, it felt like a pebble had been crushed in his heart.

“What am I waiting for him to do?”

“Huh?” Xiaoxiao was a little at a loss. Didn’t they used to be together every day? What’s the matter… She observed Xia Xiqing’s expression, “Now…how about you get in the car first and let’s turn on the air conditioner?”

Just after finishing speaking, Xia Xiqing sneezed again, “No, what about me, I’m not hot, you can turn on the air conditioner.” After speaking, he went straight to Director Kun with a lollipop in his mouth, and casually pulled a horse to sit on him Looking at the screen from the side.

This scene is a memory kill, and it is about the meeting between Gao Kun and Lingling before.

On the screen, Lingling and Gao Kun are sitting side by side on the grass next to a tunnel, the camera is facing the profiles of the two of them, and a car roars past beside them. Lingling held a cigarette between her fingers, took a long puff, and exhaled gray smoke. Her face became blurred in front of the camera, like a silhouette. The camera moved slowly, and Gao Kun’s profile gradually became complete.

Holding a cigarette in her hand, Lingling tilted her head and smiled at Gao Kun. There was a sense of flirting in that smile, and the corners of her eyes and brows were full of flirtatiousness.

Xia Xiqing also admired Song Nian’s acting skills. He looked young, but he still had a good taste in acting.

“Do you smoke?”

Gao Kun turned his head and glanced at Lingling, then nodded belatedly, and said again, “Smacking.”

“Here.” Lingling stretched out the hand holding the cigarette to Gao Kun. Gao Kun reached out to take it, but she withdrew her hand again, as if teasing him, with a smile on her face. Gao Kun couldn’t hold back his face, and was about to reach out to grab it, but Lingling sent the cigarette directly to his lips, and her fingertips painted with bright red nail polish intentionally or unintentionally rubbed the corner of her lips.

Gao Kun held the smoke in his mouth unresponsively, staring blankly at Lingling’s smiling face, the smoke drilled straight into the lung ducts like a snake, choking him to cough repeatedly, and he hastily withdrew his eyes.

Lingling laughed, louder and louder.

This scene became more and more familiar. He couldn’t help thinking about Xu Qichen’s intentions in writing this character.

Xia Xiqing’s heart was heavy.

“Cut!” Kuncheng took off the earphones and waved his hand towards the other end, “This one is very good, it seems that the old partner is different, and they have a good understanding. It seems that we can call it quits early today.”

The gradually melting lollipop seemed to have corroded the mucous membrane of the inner wall of the mouth. Xia Xiqing took it out and turned it around in his hand, licking the side that was pressed by the sugar with the tip of his tongue, rubbing it hard.

Zhou Ziheng and Song Nian walked over. Song Nian was bouncing around like a rabbit, while Zhou Ziheng was as calm as ever, following at a leisurely pace. For some reason, Xia Xiqing felt that it was a good match.

In fact, he also thought more than once, if he treated Zhou Ziheng like he treated those previous lovers, would it be too cruel. After all, Zhou Ziheng is such a good person, there is no reason to endure his pathological personality. Although the beginning of this relationship was entirely due to my competitive spirit that refused to admit defeat, but until now it is almost the same, it is better to get together and break up.

Right as a dream.

After waking up from the dream, each lives his own life, and no one needs to be responsible.

“Director Kun, let’s have dinner together tonight. I just heard from the assistant director that tonight’s night show has been cancelled, right?” Song Nian squatted in front of the director with a smile, and Director Kun also said, “Yes, I almost forgot. There is something wrong with the venue that was rented late, and it will be fixed tomorrow.”

“I heard that our group hasn’t had a get-together yet. How boring, let’s go eat hot pot together and sing again?”

“Okay, you can arrange it with Lao Zhou.”

Xia Xiqing originally thought that Zhou Ziheng would talk to him when he came over, but he just walked over and stood there with his hands in his pockets, without looking at him. Seeing Zhou Ziheng like this, Xia Xiqing didn’t speak. He sat quietly on the saddle, like a mollusc whose strength had been drained.

“Great, then I can arrange it casually.” Song Nian stood up and grabbed Zhou Ziheng’s arm, “What do you want to eat? I’ll search the Internet for delicious food nearby, and then find a KTV, how about it?” ?”

Zhou Ziheng didn’t hide this time either, with a smile on his face, “Anything is fine, I don’t choose.” This appearance arranged by Ren Jun has become a complete pampering in Xia Xiqing’s eyes.

“I heard that Xi Qing is a local.” Song Nian looked down at Xia Xiqing and smiled, “Why don’t you come here to play games, I don’t know where there is good food?”

Xia Xiqing raised his head only now, took out the lollipop in his mouth, and smiled softly, “I won’t go, I’m a little tired today, and I want to go back to the hotel to sleep early.”

“Then how can I do it!” Song Niansheng pulled Xia Xiqing up, “There is no reason for the landlord to go first, anyone can escape today, but you can’t.” After she finished speaking, she turned to Zhou Ziheng for help, “Ziheng, right? “

Xia Xiqing raised his eyes to look at Zhou Ziheng, saw him agreeing with a smile, and didn’t say to let himself rest, so he couldn’t help but licked the inner wall of his mouth wrinkled by the sugar with his tongue, hooked Song Nian when he turned his head again. The corner of his mouth pursed, “Okay, listen to you.”

He had already given Zhou Ziheng a chance.

The work was finished early, so far the four leading actors in the group plus the director and assistant director went to a local famous restaurant to eat crayfish. Although everyone was fully armed, Zhou Ziheng’s stature was really eye-catching. As soon as I entered the door, I was recognized by several little girls sitting in the hall.

“Hey, is that Zhou Ziheng?”

“Fuck! Zhou Ziheng!?”

“Is Xia Xiqing here?”

“It seems… Oh no, at the end!”

The two were not inseparable as the self-study girl thought, but they were head to tail. Although it was not what they wanted, these passer-by fans who had a rare encounter with the celebrity still posted the hastily shot video on Weibo, and it was quickly captured by the two. The only fan and the self-study girl reposted frantically.

[Self-study girl celebrates the new year every day]: Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! !

[I love self-study]: Ahhhhh Zhou Ziheng’s profile is so Aahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

[You are doing self-study and we are friends]: Have my geese finally learned to avoid suspicion hahahaha.

[SweetieQ]: Next to Zhou Ziheng is Song Nian who plays Yunyi. They have a good relationship. In the video, they chatted from the moment they entered the door.

[Niannian can’t forget]: Niannian also took a good look today! Is this a crew gathering? The director is here too.

[Lemon Essence is also]: I suddenly got the feeling of CP between Zhou Ziheng and the girl, the height difference is so cute.

Because of this chance encounter video, fans and passers-by began to speculate about the private relationship of these people. Most of the fans talked about the scene for the purpose of controlling and commenting. A self-study is just for business, it doesn’t matter if two people are killed.

It didn’t take long for the small-scale violence to start fermenting, and the hot words of [Meeting Zhou Ziheng and Xia Xiqing by chance] also became popular searches. Of course, all these parties that happened on the Internet were completely unaware of it. As soon as Zhou Ziheng sat down next to Director Kun, Song Nian sat in the vacant seat on his right. Xia Xiqing and Yang Bo who came in later sat down along the vacant seat, diagonally opposite Zhou Ziheng.

Yang Bo is a real man from the Northeast, he eats little crayfish, and Xia Xiqing eats three of them in the time it takes to peel a single shrimp. Seeing that he was struggling, he bumped Yang Bo’s shoulder with his shoulder, wearing a A plastic gloved hand picked up a shrimp, “I’ll teach you how to eat it.”

He quickly twisted the head of the shrimp, held the tail of the shrimp and pinched it with his thumb and forefinger. The shell of the shrimp opened a crack in the middle, and after peeling off the two sides, a whole shrimp meat came out.

“Will you do it?” Xia Xiqing turned his head to see that Yang Bo still hadn’t peeled it well, clicked his tongue, and threw the shrimp in his hand into his bowl, “You are so stupid.”

Yang Bo chuckled twice, and stuffed his peeled shrimp into his mouth, “It’s delicious.”

Xia Xiqing couldn’t laugh or cry, but he didn’t know that Zhou Ziheng saw all this in his eyes. Song Nian’s voice was the loudest at the dinner table. He was talking about his hometown in Yunnan with Director Kun before, but now he started to explode Zhou Ziheng’s rumors.

“Director Kun, you don’t know. When I saw Ziheng for the first time, I was very afraid of him. He looks like he has a bad temper, and he plays the role of a violent middle school student.” Song Nian laughed so hard that his teeth dazzled. , “I didn’t even dare to talk to him at the time.”

“Then why are you two talking?”

Song Nian, who was wearing a vest, bumped Zhou Ziheng with his shoulder, and he also fell over, “Say it.”

Zhou Ziheng subconsciously glanced at Xia Xiqing, then retracted it as if nothing had happened, and said with a smile, “You should say it.”

The deputy director sitting next to director Kun was sweating from eating spicy shrimp, “You two are still getting up, so why don’t you be so pretentious and say it!”

Zhou Ziheng didn’t mean to push and pull with her on purpose. In fact, he really didn’t remember the scene of the first conversation with Song Nian. Let alone the first conversation, the first cooperation was vague to him.

“I had just finished filming a running scene, and I was covered in sweat. He came to me from a distance and said,” Song Nian began to imitate Zhou Ziheng’s mature look, “Your back is wet, so what?” The straps are a bit obvious, let’s put on some clothes.” After she finished speaking, she began to laugh, “You all don’t know how embarrassing I was, I’m still a girl anyway.”

Yang Bo, who was busy peeling shrimp, also interrupted the topic, “At this time, you should just take off your coat and put it on the girl. The standard idol drama will begin.” He even raised his eyebrows twice deliberately.

All of a sudden Zhou Ziheng became the target of ridicule at the dinner table, and even director Kun joked, “It seems that Ziheng has never been in a relationship, it’s too straightforward.”

The assistant director snorted, “Ziheng is single now, even Ziheng is single?”

These two questions made Zhou Ziheng a little embarrassed, subconsciously turned his eyes to the opposite side, but that person didn’t look at him at all, he was only thinking about eating shrimps with his head down, talking to Yang Bo in a low voice, the volume was very subtle, not too low , Zhou Ziheng could hear it, but it was not too loud, so he couldn’t hear the content of the speech.

“Hey, why don’t you change the script for the two of you so that you and Lingling can be together hahaha.” After speaking, the assistant director immediately explained, “I’m just kidding, it’s going to be messed up once I change it.”

Kuncheng has a good temper, “The script can’t be changed, what’s the point of falling in love in the play, you two can try it outside the play, and the age is suitable.”

Zhou Ziheng subconsciously wanted to refute, but when he thought of what Zhao Ke said, he swallowed the words abruptly, thinking that Song Nian would also refute, but Song Nian answered the words openly, “I’m not afraid to try , the key person, Ziheng, doesn’t know if he likes me or not.”

Throwing the word to him again is simply a hot potato. Zhou Ziheng didn’t know what to do.

At this time, another person participated in this “forced love” drama.

“I like it.” Xia Xiqing restrained a lot of his frivolity in front of Zhou Ziheng, only a little gentle, but still lazy, “Zhou Ziheng said, he used to like a young lady in a white skirt, you will wear it tomorrow A white dress, maybe it will be done.”

He never thought that Xia Xiqing would make fun of it, and he felt more and more uncomfortable.

Zhou Ziheng originally had a very hostile face, with high browbones and deep eye sockets, making his eyes extremely deep. Xia Xiqing is used to seeing this person greet him with a smile, and knows that he is actually the best in the world. Temperament and temperament, it is rare to see him with such an ugly face now, looking at him with a knife in his eyes.

Xia Xiqing picked up the wine glass unhurriedly, raised it towards him across the table, and apologized with a smile, “I have already revealed the matter of your first love, don’t blame me, brother, I am also worried about your big affairs .”

Seeing him like this, Zhou Ziheng couldn’t tell what he felt. It was like falling into a thorn bush. No matter how he tried to hide, he would be pierced and bloody.

At the end of a game, there is always a winner or loser.

“How could it be?” Zhou Ziheng also laughed, the hostility in his eyes gradually faded, “But that wasn’t my first love, it’s just that I unilaterally liked someone for many years and never got together.”

“Oh?” Kuncheng was also a little curious, “What kind of girl can make you fall in love for so many years.”

“Actually, I only met her once. When I was filming for the first time, you want me to say that I don’t remember what she looks like. It’s just that I was afraid of the camera and kept crying. I ran out of the set crying. When we got to her, she would comfort me and stay with me.” Every time he said this, Zhou Ziheng’s expression would become soft unconsciously.

This subconscious softness was like a barb, piercing Xia Xiqing’s palm.

Saying that he doesn’t like her anymore seems like nonsense. Which man will forget the white moonlight white rose in his heart.

What is not available is the best.

Song Nian nodded, “So you kept filming because of her?”

“In the beginning, yes, I couldn’t find her, and I thought that if I kept filming until everyone knew me, would she see me one day in movies, TV or online, and remember that I was that boy .It is as if people look up at night, and the brightest star will be remembered.”

Zhou Ziheng said and lowered his head and took a sip of tea, “But I also gave up on this idea. I think filming is actually a way of expression for me, and it has more important meaning.”

After talking for a long time, Zhou Ziheng didn’t mention his change of heart. It’s not that saying it would damage his infatuated image, it’s hard to say, but he just wanted to stalk him, stalking himself and Xia Xiqing.

Song Nian sighed a few times, “What a good man.” She drank some wine, her pretty face flushed, her wrist put on Zhou Ziheng’s shoulder, and she fell over.

Zhou Ziheng didn’t push her away, he felt Song Nian’s frequent overtures, even a fool could feel it, otherwise the director wouldn’t have spoken for her.

The smell of women’s perfume made him dizzy, and Zhou Ziheng’s eyes shifted to Xia Xiqing.

At this time, Xia Xiqing had obviously withdrawn from the topic of first love, coughed a few times, and then turned his head to talk to Yang Bo, “You haven’t eaten much, I’ll peel it for you.” Yang Bo felt embarrassed, “Don’t, don’t , You eat what you eat.”

“I’m full, I have a headache and can’t eat too much.” Xia Xiqing lowered his head and carefully peeled the prawns, with two thick and long eyelashes hanging down to cover his eyes.

The voices of Song Nian and the directors were next to his ears, but Zhou Ziheng’s eyes were fixed on Xia Xiqing’s hands. Those thin and well-knit hands, the hands that he used to draw pictures, were now being intimately stripped by another man. with shrimp.

“Headache?” Yang Bo also noticed that Xia Xiqing had been sneezing before, so he took off his gloves and put the back of his clean hand against his forehead, touching his own forehead as a reference, “I think you have a fever, do you have a low-grade fever? ah.”

Xia Xiqing shook his head, pushed the bowl containing the shrimp meat to Yang Bo, took off his gloves and threw them aside, “Eat it.”

Yang Bo smiled like a child, “Thank you ~ you are amazing.”

“That’s right, I can eat shrimp without peeling it, just throw it in my mouth and spit out the shell.”

Zhou Ziheng watched the two of them come and go, his back molars were about to be crushed.

He felt that tonight was purely a trick for himself.

Xia Xiqing doesn’t get jealous, he doesn’t care at all, the only one who is so jealous is himself.

Two hours after a meal, Song Nian yelled to go to the ktv again. Yang Bo said behind him, “Xi Qing has a fever.” Arm, “It’s okay, just go to the ktv, don’t spoil everyone’s interest.”

In fact, he drank a little too much, and with a bad cold, he was dizzy and light-headed. Several people opened the room, and it was very dark inside. As soon as Zhou Ziheng went in, he told the waiter to turn on more lights, but Song Nian, who was sitting next to him, teased him, “Why, you are afraid of the dark, such a freshman Isn’t the screen bright enough?”

Zhou Ziheng didn’t say a word, watching Xia Xiqing walk in after Yang Bo, and sat down in the corner, he didn’t seem to have much discomfort. Song Nian is an active person. He sang several cheerful songs and started pulling other people away when the scene became popular. Director Kun and the assistant director also sang two songs each, and even Yang Bo, who claimed to be not very good at singing, sang one. “lonely love song”.

“Hey, Ziheng, why don’t you sing a song too.” Song Nian pushed his arm, trying to stick his whole body on it, but Zhou Ziheng calmly gave way, “I can’t sing, I’m born with tone deafness.”

“It’s always like this, it’s boring.” Song Nian stretched his neck and put the target on the other side, “Xi Qing? Come and sing a song.”

“I’m not very good at singing either.” Xia Xiqing said with a hoarse voice, “You guys sing.”

But Song Nian is a pesterer, so he got right in front of Xia Xiqing, and asked him to please, finally let him relax, took out his mobile phone and asked him to order songs, Xia Xiqing felt that his fever was much worse than before , His eyes felt a little swollen, he stretched out his hand and swiped a few times on Song Nian’s phone, and chose a song when he saw it.

“He said he couldn’t sing, and even sang Faye Wong’s songs and said he couldn’t.” Song Nian moved away from him, returned to Zhou Ziheng’s side, and left Mai to Xia Xiqing.

Xia Xiqing was dizzy, and it happened that this song had a psychedelic tune, and he felt groggy as if he had been drugged.

This is a Cantonese song, the original key is not too low for a boy, Xia Xiqing only lowered the key by one, and everyone was shocked when he opened his mouth.

Yang Bo slapped Xia Xiqing on the shoulder, “I’ll go, you can’t sing?!”

Xia Xiqing leaned his head back on the sofa, staring at the screen with his eyes. The grotesque colors were reflected like glass on his overly beautiful face. The long and slender neck was gracefully curved, showing a fragile and delicate beauty.

Probably because of a cold, his nasal voice is a bit heavy, but singing Cantonese songs has a subtle and special taste.

“Don’t be superstitious about the beauty of the sweat glands, don’t be religious until you know how to love the devil.

Remember to leave it to the next life, don’t swear to others. “

Bass and drums seem to be deliberately chasing the heartbeat, hammering heavily on the heart.

The lyrics are so true that Zhou Ziheng couldn’t listen to it from the first line. But Xia Xiqing sang so resolutely, so calmly, and even smiled at the corner of his mouth, as if he was aloof from the matter.

“And whoever remembers,

Don’t allow him to spoil you, don’t rely on him.

Feel free to betray him, if you like Judas.

It is not advisable to raise your posture when showing love, and don’t worship too blatantly.

It is said in one word. “

These few lines of lyrics were sung by him over and over again, his voice was mesmerizing and slightly hoarse, the arrangement was coquettish and metallic, and everyone was immersed in the music, except for Zhou Ziheng, whose eyes were fixed on the lyrics on the screen.

Every sentence hits the heart.

Xia Xiqing sang gracefully, as if he was warning idiotic men and women with the attitude of someone who had experienced it, but he didn’t know who these words were sung to.

It’s good to listen to yourself.

Sober and sober.

“For this, for that love, for enjoyment,

For you, for me and why for him. “

At the end of the song, Xia Xiqing turned off the microphone and put it on the tea table. Everyone else applauded, especially Kuncheng, “Xiqing, you are really good at singing. You might as well sing the theme song.”

“Ktv level, once you enter the recording studio, you will make a fool of yourself.” Xia Xiqing smiled, his temples throbbed with pain, he lazily crossed his legs, rested his chin on his palms, and looked towards Zhou Ziheng, through the darkness and confusing light , raised the corner of his mouth at him.

“Does it sound good?”

I sang it to you.

Seeing that he didn’t speak, and didn’t even look at himself, Xia Xiqing only felt proud, like a murderer who had carried out a perfect murder, he stood up, “I went to the bathroom, I drank too much just now, you continue to play A little unsteady on his feet, Xia Xiqing walked out holding the wall all the way.

This ktv is a high-end entertainment place with a high price, so there are few customers. The bathroom is big and bright, but there is no one there.

The self in the mirror was a bit embarrassed. Xia Xiqing pulled off the face towel, wiped the water droplets on his face carefully in front of the mirror, then rolled up the tissue and threw it into the trash can. As soon as he walked to the door of the bathroom, he was pushed in by a force , staggered a few steps and almost fell, but fortunately there was a wall behind him, and his back was pressed against the dryer, and he panicked.

But Xia Xiqing quickly put on a smiling face with ease, he knew that there was only one person who would do such a thing at this time.

“Why are you so angry?” Xia Xiqing’s eyes were full of teasing, “This is not like you.”

Zhou Ziheng’s thin lips were pursed into a cold and hard line. It is said that people with such lips are often fickle and ungrateful. It seems that things like faces are often inaccurate, at least for both of them, they are the opposite.

“What on earth do you mean?”

Xia Xiqing originally wanted to maintain his demeanor, but when he heard Zhou Ziheng’s words that were obviously suppressing his anger, he couldn’t help laughing angrily, “What do I mean? I provoked you first? What kind of plan are you thinking? You think I can’t see it. ?”

He didn’t know who Zhou Ziheng was bewitched by, so he played along with Song Nian, who was obviously interested in him, and he did it for him. What did he want to see? He wanted to see him turn his back on Zhou Ziheng for him? Sad for him? It’s crazy.

Zhou Ziheng ignored the most important point. The opponent was Xia Xiqing, who had experienced many battles. Apart from the path of sincerity, he had no chance of winning with any strategy or trick.

Xia Xiqing took two steps closer, and slowly approached Zhou Ziheng, and pressed his palm against his chest, extremely ambiguous.

But in the next moment, his slender and slender hand grabbed Zhou Ziheng’s clothes, and his eyes narrowed slightly, like a cheetah, showing a dangerous signal.

“Zhou Ziheng, you deserve to play with me just because of your status?” The corners of his mouth were full of disdain, and the pale skin under his ears flushed sickly.

“Have you forgotten who I am, huh?”

The author has something to say: This layer of window paper will eventually be pierced.

Strong Amway master Faye Wong’s “Love Admonition” must be listened to and watched! It’s cool and psychedelic. This is my favorite song in my playlist.

ps: Judas was one of the twelve disciples of Jesus. He betrayed **** for thirty silver coins, resulting in **** being crucified on the cross. Judas symbolizes betrayal.

Additional skill of the Xia family: Can sing~
