Chapter 61: Act 8 The Cat Who Wants to Become Human ④

Views:

After two hours of trekking in the rain, Tan Yiming's car finally drove from the theater to three kilometers away.

This distance, even if you get off the car and walk, you can walk.

The sweet voice of the goddess Zhiling came from the navigation: "There are still 12 kilometers from the Huacheng Dance Academy, and it is expected to drive for 15 hours. The road ahead is congested, please pay attention to driving safety in rainy days~"

Xiang Guess: "… "

Tan Yiming: "…"

Fifteen hours, that's enough for a flight to America.

There was a rumbling sound from Fanfan's belly.

"Would you like to find a restaurant first?" Xiang Gu looked at the time, "It's almost seven o'clock, let's eat something to make up for it, don't starve the child."

Tan Yiming also agreed to this proposal: "Then I will call Gu Yan and tell them to stop waiting for Fanfan to have dinner."

The two have a good deal and the atmosphere is harmonious.

Xiang Gu checked the public comments and found that there is a famous hot pot restaurant on the right at the next intersection. The cold and rainy days are the best match for hot pot. And... As soon as he thought that Cen Manchuan was fishing the sea with those gibbons, he had an inexplicable impulse, not wanting to "be left behind".

Tan Yiming had no objection: "We both have to protect our throats, we can't eat spicy food, and Fanfan can't eat too spicy things when he is young. Then we can get a mushroom soup pot, which is very nourishing."

Xiang guessed for a while: "Why don't you have a mandarin duck, half mushroom soup and half tomato soup."

"It turns out that you like to eat sweet and sour things."

"It's not true." Xiang guess laughed, "I can't eat spicy food, so I just ordered a red one to enjoy my eyes."

Fanfan, who was struggling to grab people's heads in the Canyon of Kings, snorted: "You adults are so strange, do you like to deceive yourself so much?"

Xiang Guai, who was inexplicably hit a pain point: "..."

Tan Yiming turned his head and said to him: "Bring your phone, you are not allowed to play games."

Fanfan honestly handed over his mobile phone, took out a switch from his schoolbag in a blink of an eye, and started playing Mario Kart. He drove the car out of a bumper car stance, banging out for a while, and popping off the track for a while.

Accompanied by the background music of the racing car, the silver-gray SUV was struggling in the rain. Tan Yiming thought that if he had known today, he would never have regarded swtich as a company employee benefit.

In the end, they did not choose to eat Sichuan-style hot pot, but went to a Cantonese restaurant with a good reputation.

Xiang Gu's clothes were half-dried by the heater in the car, but they were still wet on his body. Especially the shoes under his feet, which were filled with rainwater, splashed with splashes when they stepped on them.

If you go to this high-end restaurant with this honor, you will definitely be kicked out.

At a critical moment, Tan Yiming remembered that he had a spare suit in his car.

Xiang Guai asked with some embarrassment, "Where can I change it?"

Tan Yiming coughed: "This car is covered with film, you can change it in the car. Fanfan and I will go to occupy a seat first."

After speaking, Tan Yiming pretended to get off the car normally, hugged Fanfan, closed the door, and left without looking away.

Xiang Guai looked at the figures leaving one big and one small, then looked at the suit he was holding in his arms, took it to the tip of his nose and sniffed it—sure enough, the clothes also smelled of the sun and the ocean.

Tan Yiming was about five centimeters taller than Xiang Guai. He thought that Xiang Guai's clothes would be a little sloppy when he wore his clothes. Maybe the cuffs of his trousers and cuffs would be rolled up.

Who would have thought that Xiang Gu would be wearing just the right length, but the waist and shoulders of his trousers were a little empty.

He didn't wear a suit jacket, only put on Tan Yiming's trousers and shirt. The hem of the shirt was tucked into the waist of his trousers, and the length of the trousers and sleeves was just right.

Tan Yiming couldn't help but marvel: "It is said that people who practice dance have long hands and feet, long necks, and today I finally saw it."

Tan Yiming thought, Xiang Guess must have been God's most beloved piece of art before he fell into the world.

Xiang Gu changed his wet canvas shoes and put on Tan Yiming's plus-size leather shoes.

The leather shoes are wide, and he walks like a little swan that has just landed on the shore, swaying and swaying, adding an approachable clumsiness to the elegance.

They asked for a large portion of the champion and the first porridge, and they also asked for five or six baskets of refreshments and two dishes of stir-fry. As soon as the food came to the table, the stomachs of the three began to growl.

They were sitting on a small round table, where Fanfan had short arms, and Xiang Guai helped him fetch some dishes that could not be caught.

Fanfan took a shrimp dumpling from the steamer and sent it to Xiang Guai with courtesy.

Fanfan's upbringing is very good, and he eats with a bowl in a proper manner, unlike some children who eat and play at the same time. Originally, Xiang Gukan liked to play games so much, and was worried that he would hold the game console when he was eating. Who would have thought that this kid knew the truth of "what to do when", so he would concentrate on eating while eating, and play games early Machine put away.

Xiang Chai said with admiration: "I have also met some children of the same age as you, and you are the one with the most peace of mind to eat. I have also seen children who are 10 years old and want their mother to chase after them and feed them, and only watch cartoons. child."

Fanfan snorted complacently, and he looked proud.

Tan Yiming asked curiously, "So, have you seen many children?"

"Yeah, there will be children in many crews. If this show is based in a certain city like "Beauty and the Beast", the same role will be played by two or three children, and each person will take turns to play a role. , when it is not their turn, the children can go to school normally."

Fanfan was fascinated and quickly asked, "What if there were musicals running all over the city?"

"If it's a touring drama, such as "Spring in the Cattle Class," their crew has a lot of young actors. They can't go to school in a certain city, and the crew will directly ask the resident teacher to give them lectures."

After explaining to Guai, seeing Fanfan staring at him intently, with a look of longing and hope on his face, Xiang Guai moved and said, "I just heard from Teacher Tan that you have dubbed movies since you were four years old? Then your line skills are definitely fine. If you want to perform on stage, I can help you keep an eye out for similar opportunities, and next time the crew recruits young actors, I can recommend you there."

Who would have thought, Fanfan immediately lowered his head and shook it vigorously: "I don't like acting."

Tan Yiming hurriedly stopped Xiang Guai and joked: "Don't poach from me. Do you know how hard it is to find a qualified voice actor? He was born to eat dubbing."

Who would have thought, just after Tan Yiming finished speaking, Fanfan suddenly raised his head and shouted in a loud voice, "I don't like dubbing either!!"

"I... I..." The boy unconsciously poked the rice in the bowl with the chopsticks, and whispered, "... I hate dubbing."

Xiang Guess didn't even need to look at Tan Yiming's face, he could also guess that this class leader's smile must have cracked.

Although Fanfan is not Tan Yiming's child, he really grew up under Tan Yiming's eyes.

It was the first time that Fanfan entered the recording studio, the first time he read out his lines in front of the microphone, the first dubbed work was released... At every step, Tan Yiming was there to accompany him.

Lone Yan and his wife were also joking, saying that it would be better to let Fanfan recognize Tan Yiming as a godfather.

... But now, Tan Yiming, the old father's heart is really cold.

Rebellious! Rebellious! Seven-year-olds start to rebel!

He asked incredulously: "Fanfan, haven't you done a good job all the time, why do you suddenly hate dubbing?"

"There's no reason." The little boy was about to bury his head in his rice bowl.

Employees suddenly leave without warning—Tan Yiming has been in the company for many years, and I have seen this kind of thing many times. He's a good and approachable boss, he's emotional, he's sensible, and there's always a thousand ways to get the right answer.

The problem is that Fanfan is neither an adult nor his employee strictly speaking.

He could only rack his brains to guess: "Did it affect your studies? Did it delay your playing games with the children? Did your mother put all your salary in the bank card and say that it will not be given to you until you are 18 years old? ?"

Every time Tan Yiming said a word, Fanfan shook his head. His eyelids drooped listlessly, looking pitiful.

Tan Yiming continued to ask, but under the table, Xiang Gu suddenly kicked Tan Yiming.

Tan Yiming: "?"

Xiang Gu gave him a look and told him to shut up quietly.

Tan Yiming immediately closed his voice tacitly.

Xiang Guai turned to Fanfan gently, handed a tissue, and asked him, "Did your classmates gossip about your dubbing?"

The next second, Fanfan cried with a wow.

The world of children is simple and simple, complex and complicated.

Recently, "Puppy Story" was released. This live-action film tells the heartwarming and endearing story of a group of puppies and their owners. Fanfan dubbed one of the fierce bulldogs. In the second half of the movie, the bulldog broke his front teeth, and the howling sound changed from "barking" to "letting".

The teachers in the school all know that there is a great "little voice actor" in Class 2 (1), so as soon as the film was released, the school organized students to go to the cinema to watch the film in the name of Spring Outing.

After watching the movie, Fanfan held his head high and was very proud. The teacher asked him to give a speech and share his feelings about dubbing.

Unexpectedly, before Fanfan opened his mouth, someone in the audience suddenly shouted: "Let it go! Let it go! I am a powerful bulldog, let it go!"

Fanfan: "..."

In the movie theater, the barking of "let go" rang out, and even the next-door Banhua, who was secretly in love with Fanfan, was covering his mouth and snickering! !

Cool guy Gu Fanfan is sad, broken down, and in a slump - he hates dubbing, and he will step into the recording studio one more step in the future, he is a puppy!

Fanfan cried and lay in Xiangchai's arms and said aggrievedly, "Brother Xiangchai, I'm so sad..."

While helping him wipe his tears, Xiang Guai kicked Tan Yiming again under the table.

Xiang Guai (lip-talking with Yiming): If you dare to laugh out loud, you will die.

Tan Yiming, who was kicked twice in a row by the goose's paw within five minutes, held back his laughter, thinking that he was really a miserable leader.

Fanfan's tears soaked Xiang Guai's shirt. That movie has been released for more than half a month, that is to say, Fanfan has endured the "mockery" of his classmates alone for more than half a month.

In the eyes of adults, half a month is very short, and it will pass as soon as you open your eyes and close your eyes. But in the hearts of children, the past two weeks have been extremely long every day.

Xiang Cai asked him distressedly, "Have you told the teacher about this?"

Fanfan said distressedly: "...I don't want to make a small report to the head teacher."

"What about your parents?"

Fanfan whispered: "My mother always said that I would become a good voice actor like my father in the future. I don't know how to talk to them."

Xiang Chai helped him up and saw that his round eyes were swollen with tears, and he felt even more distressed.

Xiang Guess touched his hair, the boy's hair was soft, lying softly on top of his head.

Xiang Guess carefully organized the language in his mind, trying to figure out how to enlighten him.

"Fanfan, shall we take this question apart?" he said patiently, "The first question is that you were ridiculed by your classmates for having a stupid dog. The second question is, because You've been laughed at, so you feel ashamed and don't want to be a voice actor anymore. The third problem is that you don't know how to talk to your parents, right?"

Fanfan nodded with tears in his eyes.

"Okay, let's analyze one by one." Xiang Gu said, "First of all, it's wrong for your classmates to laugh at you. When I was in high school, a male classmate said that a female classmate was too fat. When the teacher criticized him, he was stubborn. It's just a joke. At that time, our head teacher said something that I remember deeply - 'Whether this is a joke or not, it's up to the 'victim' to decide'. A one-sided joke is not a joke, you were bullied, tell Teacher, this is not called snitching."

Fanfan nodded and decided to muster up the courage to tell the teacher about it in class on Monday.

"As for the second point..." Xiang Guai gave Tan Yiming a wink, "Let your uncle say it."

Tan Yiming, who was indulgingly watching the two of them, was suddenly cued, and hurriedly gathered his mind and put on a serious expression.

He pondered for a while and said, "Fanfan, a voice actor is different from an actor. An actor can choose a role. He used to play a playboy, but this time he wants to play a cold killer... But a voice actor's job is just the opposite. Every time, the role is in the role. Pick us. For example, my voice is suitable for playing men in their twenties to forties. As long as it is a role in this age group, whether it is a leading role or a supporting role, it will be sent to me. "

Tan Yiming described his experience over the past few years in a language that children can understand: "Everyone wants to be a smart, powerful, flawless positive character, but who will match those bad guys and idiots? We use voice to make the characters come alive, it is also crying, as long as your emotions are in place, the howl of the villain will be more touching."

Fanfan could not understand, he asked: "So they think that bulldog is stupid because I am well-matched?"

"Of course." Tan Yiming stretched out his hand from the other side and patted his shoulder.

In this way, Fanfan sat between Tan Yiming and Xiang Chai, his upper body was held by Xiang Chai, and his small hand was pulled by Tan Yiming, feeling that he was as noble as the little prince at this moment.

Tan Yiming said: "Of course, we will respect your choice. But you have to think clearly whether you are being bullied and don't want to be a voice actor for the time being, or you really don't like this profession. If it's the latter, uncle can Talk to your parents for you. After all, 'becoming a good voice actor' is your parents' wish, not yours."

Hope the child will become a dragon - every pair of parents will involuntarily entrust their unfulfilled ambitions to their children, but forget to ask their children what they really want.

"The job my uncle is doing now is completely different from my parents' wishes." Tan Yiming talked about the past, his original intention was to enlighten Fanfan, but Xiang Guai was fascinated by it, "They took great care to train me since I was a child, and I hope I can Make a lot of money, excel, and do promising jobs. But in the end, instead of fulfilling their wishes, I fulfilled my own.”

Until now, his parents have not forgiven him for his "self-destructing future" decision. Every time Tan Yiming went home to visit the old couple, he would eventually be driven out by the babble of relatives. Later, Tan Yiming thought about it. Apart from making regular payments every month, he had less and less contact with his parents.

When Tan Yiming enlightened Fanfan, Xiang Guai never interrupted.

He just watched them quietly, he thought, if Tan Yiming got married and had children, he would definitely become a very gentle father.

I don't know if I will have the opportunity to attend Tan Yiming's wedding.

Tan Yiming's voice is very magnetic, warm and soft. He clearly speaks the big truth, but when he reads it out of his mouth, it is as relaxing and pleasant as a bedtime story.

Gradually, Fanfan stopped crying. He finally recalled his cool guy character, sitting upright awkwardly, but stubbornly grabbed the finger of an adult with one hand and refused to let go.

Tan Yiming laughed at him: "If you hold it so tightly, are you afraid we'll run away? Well, I'll take you home later."

Ke Fanfan shook his head and said that he didn't want to go home today.

The little boy had a good face, his eyes were swollen from crying, and he was embarrassed to go home to see his parents.

Tan Yiming thought about it for a while, and simply called his parents and said that Fanfan would stay at his house today, and he would drop Fanfan to school tomorrow.

The three of them rested in the restaurant for a while, and waited until the rain subsided before checking out and leaving.

When checking out, Xiang Chai insisted that he come to treat him. He took Tan Yiming's car and borrowed his clothes. He didn't want to owe Tan Yiming too much, so he could only make up for the lingering feeling in his heart by paying for it. sense of indebtedness.

Tan Yiming saw his persistence, so he didn't continue to be polite with him.

The three walked out of the restaurant, and Xiang Gu took out their mobile phones and looked at the navigation: "The subway station is at the next street intersection. I can take the subway directly to go back to school. Although it is a bit crowded, at least there is no traffic jam."

When Fanfan heard this, he immediately ran over and hugged his waist, reluctant to let him go.

"Don't go." Fanfan said coquettishly, "Today I live at the uncle's house, so why don't you come too."

"..." Xiang Guai's heart skipped a beat, and he said hurriedly, "I have class tomorrow morning."

He is about to graduate, where will there be classes

Fanfan could only reluctantly let go of his hand, hooked Xiang Guai's finger and said, "But you also promised to accompany me to fight the glory of the king!"

Xiang Guess, did he stab Zhang Fei's nest? Why does my boyfriend always think about playing games with him, and the children also think about playing games with him

He doesn't have six fingers, why do they think they are good at playing games

But there was no way, looking at the child's pitiful eyes, Xiang Guai couldn't refuse him. Xiang Gu could only take out his mobile phone and add Fanfan to WeChat (such a young child actually has WeChat!), and promised him to form a group to download a copy at night.

"And what about the uncle of the class leader?" Fanfan said, "You can add him too, so that the three of us can form a team together."

Tan Yiming: "…"

Xiang Guess: "… "

Tan Yiming and Xiang Guai looked at each other silently. In the end, Tan Yiming smiled, took out his mobile phone, and said calmly, "Then add a friend."

"… Um."

After hiding for so long and for so long, they carefully did not contact each other after they met again, and they didn't even exchange phone numbers. Now, because of a joke from the child, they have reunited.

late at night.

Yiming Qingyun: Have you been to school yet

guess: Here we go, just took a shower.

Yiming Qingyun: Well, that's good.

guess: Thank you for the dress.

Yiming Qingyun: It doesn't matter, you invited us to dinner too.

guess: how did you return the clothes to you

Yiming Qingyun: Send it here. The address is XX District, XX Street, XX District.

guess: OK, I will send you the tracking number.

Unlike the enthusiasm during dinner, when they returned to the Internet, the conversation between them suddenly became jerky.

No emoji flying everywhere, no joking jokes, no wavy lines...

They use the simplest questions and declarative sentences to complete all the dialogues, and try to get rid of all emotional colors.

The encounters in the rain, the air-conditioned blanket with the breath of sunshine and the sea, the loose suits, the bowl of warm porridge, the tears of Fanfan... Those memories that can link them together are all ignored by them.

Xiang Guai rolled over on the bed, his wet hair was not blown, but was directly attached to the pillow.

He thought, how interesting that five years ago he tossed and turned on his dorm bed, chatting with Tan Yiming. Five years later, he is still doing the same thing.

He doesn't seem to grow at all.

He opened Tan Yiming's account and moved his finger on the button "Don't let him see my circle of friends", but he couldn't press it in the end.

He didn't know, but at the same time, Tan Yiming also clicked on his avatar and was observing carefully.

Because he needed to find a job during the graduation season, Xiang Guai used a passport photo as his avatar. Black hair, smiling lips, bright eyes, and the white shirt on his body... These elements together make up the appearance of Xiang Guess.

Tan Yiming stared blankly at the smiling face in the photo, long-pressed with his finger, and saved this avatar to his phone.

Yi Mingqingyun: Good night, good dream.

guess: Good night, good dream.

But they all know that tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.

The author has something to say: small theater, guess: Teacher Tan will be a good father at first glance. I don't know if I have a chance to go to his wedding.

Me: Don't worry, there is definitely a chance.
