Day after day passed quickly in the crew, and everyone gradually adapted to the hot weather in Guangzhou. After autumn and winter, the temperature finally dropped a little.
Lu Wen's birthday is December 15th. Last year he was on the set of "The First Night", and this year he is on the set again. But the difference is that this time Qu Yanting was by his side.
Lu Wen probably planned it out. He was busy and tired from filming. On his birthday, he would have a cake with everyone on the set. After a while of excitement, it would be considered a relaxation.
He moved to the director's room on the eighth floor, and often went out with Qu Yanting. At first, he avoided others, but later he was able to greet him calmly, and now he swaggered in the corridor all day long.
Playing at night all night, sleeping upside down after work was over, woken up by the crackling of raindrops on the window in the afternoon, Lu Wen sat up and rubbed his eyes, what kind of nightgown and nightgown were long gone, and he was shirtless back to basics.
The door rang, and Qu Yanting went to the computer room and came back, packed lunch by the way, and when he entered the room, he saw Lu Wenmu sitting on the bed, like a large animal that had ended hibernation.
Qu Yanting stopped calling "pig" and said, "Blind Xiong, go wash your face."
Lu Wen climbed out of bed, washed it clean, and consciously went to tidy up the tea table. It was full of documents and scripts, and a piece of thick paper fell on the floor. Qu Yanting took it away as soon as he picked it up.
The other side seemed to be marked, but I couldn't see it clearly. Lu Wen said: "Remember to put away the storyboard after drawing it."
"Well, I got it." Qu Yanting stuffed the paper into the opaque file bag, except for the one that fell, there was a thick stack inside, "I'm starving to death, let's eat."
They huddled together on the sofa, eating and watching comedy movies. Lu Wen liked to imitate the exaggerated tone of the protagonist. After imitating himself for a long time, he turned his face slightly and met Qu Yanting's gaze staring at him.
It's not staring, it's closer to "staring".
Lu Wen looked down at the lunch box and asked, "Do you want to eat my rice with abalone sauce?"
Qu Yanting turned away, and replied: "No, you can eat by yourself."
Lu Wen was most afraid of being aroused by curiosity, so he asked, "Why were you looking at me just now?"
"It's nothing." Qu Yanting said, "You look handsome."
Lu Wen smugly said: "Nympho."
"..." Qu Yanting thought to himself, this person must try a comedy movie in the future.
Rainy days are very suitable for sleeping. After eating, Lu Wen hugged Qu Yanting from behind, lay on the bed and looked at the sky outside the window, and then slowly closed his eyes.
Not long after sleeping, Lu Wen was woken up by the advertising message, and rubbed his head on the back of Qu Yanting's neck. The feeling was not right, and when he opened his eyes, he found that he was hugging a pillow.
He shouted dizzily, "Teacher Qu?"
"Hey." Qu Yanting was in the living room, "Woke up so soon?"
Lu Wen was dissatisfied: "Aren't you faster?"
There was a crisp sound of paper shaking, and Qu Yanting said, "I'm changing the director's script for next week."
Lu Wen gave up, and for a period of time later, whether he got up early in the morning or early in the morning, his side was often empty, and Qu Yanting would work overtime on the desk.
On the set, talking and laughing between shootings, Lu Wen noticed that Qu Yanting would stare at him a few times, exactly the same as the "staring" that time.
Although Lu Wen knew that he was handsome enough, he still felt a little hairy in his heart.
He secretly searched on his mobile phone, suffering from nymphopathia, hysteria, over-dependence... Worrying that Qu Yanting finally overcomes social phobia and suffers from a new mental illness.
Lu Wen opened the QQ that had been left for a long time, and sent a message as an unlucky little singer: Even if you are a pervert, I will never leave you.
After watching it, Qu Yanting picked up the trumpet and shouted: "Lu Wen, if you have nothing to do, come and play!"
Everyone was so scared that they thought they were going to break up.
On December 14th, the big night show, approaching early morning, Meng Chun was in a deep confrontation with Tang Deyin for a second on stage, and the next second when the director called to stop, Yu Xiaoqing hugged Lu Wen and said, "Happy birthday, big nephew!"
There was a burst of cheers on the set, and Sun Xiaojian pushed over a six-layer cake, pure white cream, without decoration, each layer and each side were filled with colorful words with jam.
Lu Wen had never seen such a beautiful cake. When he got closer, he found that the handwriting was different and familiar.
Xiao Lu is so handsome—it's Ren Shu.
It's a pleasure working with you - it's Xianqi.
The future is boundless - it is Yu Xiaoqing.
The younger brother is too sexy - it's Tu Ying.
Always happy - is the drama.
Take the actor - is the producer.
There are also photographers, stylists, field reporters... A group of friends who have been together for several months, everyone left a blessing, and they covered it if there was not enough space. At this moment, they are chatting around the cake to explain.
Lu Wen opened his mouth slightly, and never missed a word from bottom to top. On the second floor, he saw Sun Xiaojian's rotten words—Ancestor, I am willing to drag you to retirement.
The candles were inserted on the high first floor, exuding a warm light. Lu Wen moved closer to his lowered eyes, and finally saw the small italic characters on the exclusive floor of Qu Yanting.
Happy birthday baby.
I missed the tail of your twenties, and I am fortunate to accompany you through your thirties.
Make a wish to the starry sky above.
If a bird passes by, make sure it's me.
Follow it and claim your birthday gift—
Lu Wen was stunned for a moment, and looked around the crowd blankly, but he didn't see Qu Yanting. He clasped his hands against his chin, raised his head and made a wish to the stars in the sky.
Opening his eyes, a pair of slender hands hooked their thumbs into the shape of a bird, flapping their palms and dancing in the air. Lu Wen raised his head stupidly. It turned out that Qu Yanting was hiding behind him on a tiptoe box.
There was booing all around, Lu Wen hugged Qu Yanting all at once, and asked dizzily, "Are you kidding me?"
Qu Yanting looked down at him: "Is that fun?"
Lu Wen said, "I want to receive a gift."
Shopping in the ancient town was inconvenient, and he was busy all day long and had no time to prepare, so Lu Wen didn't hold out hope. But even if Qu Yanting only picked a bunch of foxtail for him, he would still like it.
Qu Yanting said: "I didn't prepare any expensive things, only a little heart."
"What is it?" Lu Wen asked anxiously, "Give it to me quickly."
Qu Yanting said: "Then everyone help me."
A curtain was hung on the outdoor lawn, the lights were dimmed, and there was only projected light. Everyone stood in twos and threes, and Lu Wen stood facing the screen.
The video started, with a noisy and vivid voice in the background, which seemed to be secretly recorded. The first person to speak was Qu Yanting. He said, "I didn't ask the cake shop to decorate the flowers. How about we write the words on the cake?"
"Listen to the director!"
"Can it accommodate so many people?"
"Squeeze."
Qu Yanting said again: "The top floor is not allowed to write, I occupy it."
The voice gradually became quieter and blurred, but the title became clear, and a line of concise and clear words appeared—a 30th birthday gift for Lu Wen.
The video screen is composed of single shots, in which are scanned pictures one by one.
In the first picture, there are two people. Lu Wen, who is wearing shorts and a vest, stands on the platform. When the train pulls into the station, he waves to Meng Chuntai who is in a panic in the carriage.
The second picture shows Lu Wen holding the trophy, and the time goes back to the good drama festival.
Lu Wen and the physical education teacher who cameo in "Right and Wrong Nest" smoked in the alley face to face.
Later Ye Xiaowu appeared, and Lu Wen and Ye Xiaowu played basketball, sang together, and ran on the playground together.
Lu Wen met Ye Shan under the vines.
Lu Wen, the guard in "Wan Nian Qiu", touched the opponent's armor enviously.
Lu Wen squatted in Lanshui's small courtyard, watching the big yellow dog eat.
The content is flashbacks. From the current role of Meng Chuntai played by Lu Wen to the a few seconds ago, every character he played and every show he participated in appeared in turn, as if time was going backwards.
Lu Wen stared blankly at the screen. In the comics, sketches, Q-version characters, and color pictures with complete scenes, he reunited with fictional characters one by one, like seeing a group of friends left in his memory.
He suddenly understood what Qu Yanting was doing from morning to night these days, and why he was so absent-minded while staring at him... Swish, he looked lonely on the screen with a guitar on his back.
It was the time when he insisted on becoming a singer, and the days and nights when Qu Yanting was far away from him.
On the university campus, clubs are recruiting newcomers, and Lu Wen stops under the band display board.
In the third year of high school, Lu Wen was lying on the pile of papers, and a corner of his hidden mobile phone was exposed under the papers.
After junior high school, Lu Wen ordered at the milk tea shop, checked all the red bean pudding and black pearls, and asked the faceless part-timer with a large cup of milk tea, "Brother, did you make me a cup of porridge?"
Lu Wen, a primary school student, participated in social practice for the first time, but ran away and fell behind; participated in the cleaning for the first time, and was lazy; failed for the first time, and stuck Mickey stickers on the report card to deceive himself and others.
During the pre-school foreign summer camp, Lu Wen took more than 500 pictures of the main road in the United States with a point-and-shoot camera, 400 of which were out of focus.
The last one is in warm tones. The newborn fat boy is obediently lying in the nursery of the hospital. All the babies around him are sleeping, and he is the only one with curious eyes open.
"Lu Wen" is written on the bedside nameplate, a name made up of love.
Dozens of paintings, countless lines of brush and ink, and every moment of fragmented time, Qu Yanting describes from the present to the past, what he has accompanied, what he has not participated in, what he has witnessed, and what he imagined, into a unique record.
Lu Wen didn't dare to blink, his eye sockets were hot and hot, and his nasal cavity became sore.
At the end, the screen dimmed.
Amidst the audience's reluctance to end, there was a sudden light and a naughty easter egg jumped out.
Lu Wen opened his mouth wide, and saw the entire Bird's Nest Stadium appear on the screen, so realistic, surrounded by a large number of fans waiting to enter, and the huge sign said "Lu Wen's Solo Concert".
There was a long row of flower baskets, and the largest and most beautiful one was a double-petalled delphinium in full bloom.
Lu Wen wiped his eyes, wiped the back of his hand wet, turned his head, and saw Qu Yanting standing a step away from him holding the bulging picture album. He could no longer speak, and kept rolling his Adam's apple.
"Every painting is collected here," said Qu Yanting, "it will be added every year, so let's take a look at it every birthday, okay?"
Lu Wen responded in a low voice: "Okay."
Qu Yanting said: "It's too hasty, but I am very happy to draw, thinking of something related to you... I am happy."
Lu Wen said, "But you made me cry."
Qu Yanting approached him, pressed the album on his chest, wiped his face with his hands, and said, "I always remember that you said, since I blame you for showing up late, don't just meet you by chance."
They fell in love, were together, and even looked forward to getting married, but Qu Yanting was more greedy than expected. Apart from the future, he also wanted to get involved in the past of Lu Wen's life.
But there is no time machine in the world, Qu Yanting said: "I drew it one stroke at a time, so I should have seen you a long time ago."
Lu Wen said, "Why don't you draw yourself?"
"I drew it." Qu Yanting told him, "At the upper right corner of each page, a little swallow is drawn."
In the years when we never met, there was a flying bird that rubbed shoulders with you thousands of times in the sky and starry night. Tonight, please confirm that it is me and accept my gift.
Qu Yanting approached and whispered, "I'm flying over."
Lu Wen hugged him so tightly, and asked, "After drawing so many me, do I count as your muse now?"
"Forget it." Qu Yanting looked at the cake not far away, "You are the mousse that makes me taste sweet, and you are also the fallacy that makes me willingly derail."
The stars above his head are like the fireworks on New Year's Eve. In a foreign land, in the warm winter of the southern country, he celebrated his first birthday for him, the most romantic beginning.
"Lu Wen," said Qu Yanting, "Happy birthday."
