92 Resistance
PEI Yi realized that Feng Nan had changed a lot in the six months that he had not been able to find her.
When she went on stage to play the role of child beggar B and read her lines to another child beggar a, he sat below the stage and watched her stand on the stage and act with another young beggar. He was unable to come back to his senses for a long time.
He thought of the Feng Nan he knew in the past. He thought of Jiang se who was harassed by Yao Xiang at ruiji hotel. Then, he saw Jiang se who was curled up on stage as she played the role of a cold and hungry beggar. He recalled how she had smiled and said that she was ‘short of money’ when he had asked her why she had entered the entertainment industry. He felt a little upset.
According to the information he had gathered, Jiang se did not come from a good family background. She was only the du family’s stepdaughter and did not have a good life in the du family.
When Wen gang, who was in charge of rehearsing for ” returning home on a snowy night “, found out that Jiang se was only here to practice, he understood Chang Yuhu’s intention. After Jiang se had rehearsed for the role of ” child beggar B “, he arranged for her to try out other roles in the next round of rehearsal.
The rehearsal ended at around six in the afternoon, and the people in the theater dispersed.
When Jiang se got off the stage, PEI Yi was still sitting in the audience. He seemed to be in a daze.
He looked absent-minded, as if he had suffered a huge blow. After sitting there for nearly three hours, he was probably impatient.
“If you’re bored from waiting, you should leave first.”
Jiang se picked up her coat and hung it on her arm. Her forehead was already covered in sweat.
PEI Yi reached out to take her bag. He was not being considerate, but he was afraid that she would run away when he recalled the two times Jiang se had tried to carry her bag and leave during lunch.
it’s not boring, “he said as he held the strap of his small satchel with his fingertips. He was a little down. His heart ached for her suffering, but he couldn’t say it out loud.
“Let’s go,”
He waited for a long time and still had no intention of separating from her. Jiang se glanced at him. He had his head lowered. His gaze was a little dim and his entire aura was low.
“What’s wrong?”
The two of them entered the garage. Jiang se pulled out her loose hair and put it down. She reached out to grab it, but when she turned around, she saw that PEI Yi was still looking at her.
His eyes were dazed, and she felt her scalp go numb.
PEI Yi wanted to say something but hesitated. After a long while, he asked, ”
“Do you still want to try again? I don’t think they’re treating you well.”
When she rehearsed, even if she didn’t want to eventually steal the role from these people in the theater, no one could be sure if she was telling the truth until the moment the performance began.
Therefore, when Wen gang arranged for her to audition for the role in ” returning home on a snowy night “, many of the people who had replaced her for the audition inevitably felt a little repulsed by her. During the break, the people in the theater sat on one side, and she took the script and sat on the other side, obviously repulsing her.
When he saw this scene in the audience, his heart was on fire. For a moment, he wanted her to be the female lead and kick these people out of the theater. On the other hand, he was worried that she would be angry with him for acting on his own initiative.
In the few hours he had spent watching her rehearsing in the afternoon, his heart had been filled with ups and downs.
I’ve accepted a role from Shangjia company. It’s ‘Beiping’s event’, written by hou Xiling. However, I’ve never acted before, so my acting skills aren’t that good. Teacher hou has specially hired teacher Chang to teach me.
Jiang se could hear the worry in his voice. She could not help but explain, ”
teacher Chang arranged for me to study in the theater for a period of time. It’s also a form of training for me. Of course, I’ll come back.
She reached out to tie her hair up again, but her phone rang in her bag.
Jiang se let go of her hand. Her hair fell back down and draped over her shoulders.
She turned around to look for her bag, but PEI Yi handed it to her. She then remembered that he had taken her bag with him when they left the theater.
When he took it out and saw the old-fashioned phone in Jiang SE’s hand, he tightened his grip.
The call was from the crew of ” the 99th love letter “. 99 love letters ” was released in January, and the crew called to remind her that the movie’s promotional period might be brought forward, between the end of November and December, and they might ask her to cooperate in the promotion.
She tilted her head and conversed seriously with the other person. The car was not big, and her fragrance seemed to invade PEI Yi’s sense of smell.
He looked at her fair and tender side profile. Under the dim light, her eyes were half-closed, and her eyelashes were long and curly, blinking.
A few strands of hair fell in front of her chest, and his heart was beating faster and faster. Thump, thump, thump. It almost overpowered her soft voice.
PEI Yi mustered his courage and raised his trembling hand to hook a lock of her hair, but she did not Dodge.
His legs tensed up when his fingertips touched the cold hair.
At this moment, PEI Yi’s emotions were extremely complicated.
He knew who Jiang se was. Jiang se knew who he was as well.
When he touched her, she didn’t avoid him, which meant that she didn’t have any defense or resistance against him.
But in the past, he didn’t dare to do this. He didn’t even try it.
If he had been a little braver in the past, perhaps Feng Nan would have already been his.
He retracted his hand, and the tip of his foot trembled. Just this small intimate action was enough to make him reminisce over it.
She hung up the phone and did not notice PEI Yi’s small action. She only felt that there was something wrong with his expression. After putting her phone back into her bag, she asked, ”
“What’s wrong?”
“It’s nothing,” He shook his head and stammered as he tried to start the car, but his hands were shaking so badly that he failed to press the button on the car several times. He looked like he had done something wrong and did not dare to look at her.
Jiang se grabbed her hair again. She lowered her head and asked, ”
“The person who called you is looking for you?”
It had only been half a year, but there were suddenly so many people and things around her that he didn’t know about. This made him feel a sense of crisis.
It was not easy to survive in the entertainment industry. She used to be very gentle and delicate, and was very likable. Now, she was even more beautiful, and it was easy to attract other people’s coveting.
“Yes, I am. The movie I was in is about to be released, and the crew reminded me to help promote it. ”
After Jiang se said this, she leaned back in her seat and turned to look at him.”Do you have anything to do tonight? I’ll treat you to a meal?”
He had treated her to lunch and she had waited for half a day. Even though he had said that he wanted to court her and it had given her a headache, they were once very familiar with each other. Jiang se was very happy that she could still have a meal with him after her rebirth.
Of course, PEI Yi would not refuse to have a meal with her. However, at the thought of how she was earning money with difficulty, he reluctantly rejected her.
...
“I don’t seem very hungry.”
As soon as he said that, he regretted it. “Why don’t I treat you?”
