In the psychological drama competition, Lin Xian and his class entered the final without any suspense, relying on Lin Xian's outstanding script and the superb acting skills of Shi Man and other students. The final was arranged on the Friday night of the week before Christmas in the school's theater, and it was held jointly with the psychological drama final of the School of Business Administration. According to the arrangement, the best viewing positions in the first three rows of the theater are the guest seats, which are not open to the public. The first row is the exclusive seat for the school leaders, and the second and third rows are evenly distributed to the student union and each organization. student cadres.
Lin Xian specially asked Xia Zhijin, hoping that she could find a way to help her get a ticket for the guest seat, and she wanted to invite Xiao Wanqing to watch the game. Xia Zhijin didn't refuse, and agreed immediately.
Sure enough, three days before the competition, Xia Zhijin lived up to expectations and delivered the tickets to Lin Xian in time.
Seeing Xia Zhijin's tired face, Lin Xian couldn't help asking her with concern: "Manman... haven't you been home recently?" The rehearsals were never missed. Lin Xian couldn't ask what happened between Shiman and Xia Zhijin. As a friend, she could only tactfully persuade Shiman a few times not to be too willful. up. Therefore, even though she was anxious to help Xia Zhijin, she was unable to do so.
Xia Zhijin looked a little gloomy, shook her head, and said helplessly, "I haven't come back, but I know where she lives, so I feel relieved." She paused, and saw that Lin Xian also had a worried look on her face. With a sad face, Wen Yan comforted Lin Xian and said, "Don't worry too much, I told her mother. Auntie Shi has been on a business trip abroad and she will be back in two days. On Friday, she will go directly to Those who come to watch the game, she will have a good talk with Shiman then, and she should be fine." Speaking of Shiman's mother, Shi Jinglan, Xia Zhijin's expression was filled with unconcealable admiration.
Lin Xian was slightly relieved, but also a little surprised. Speaking of Shi Jinglan, Xia Zhijin's state seems to be completely different from Shi Man's state. From the occasional conversations with Shi Man before, Lin Xian vaguely noticed that the relationship between Shi Jinglan and Shi Man didn't seem to be very good? At least, she couldn't see her warmth and love for Shi Jinglan from Shi Man's face.
She hesitated for a moment, and asked Xia Zhijin with a little curiosity: "What kind of person is Manman's mother?" A strong woman, probably without a doubt? Shiman's abnormal state has lasted for more than half a month, and the counselors have called and criticized him at the annual meeting, but she has been so reassuring until now that she is done with work before she comes back to care about Shiman
Xia Zhijin's cold brows softened instantly, and she replied to Lin Xian with some respect, "Aunt Shi is a very kind and gentle person. I respect and appreciate her very much."
Shi Jinglan helped their family a lot. Without Shi Jinglan's support, she would not have been able to go to high school, let alone university; without Shi Jinglan's help, their family would have run out of ammunition and food long ago. It is impossible for her illness to last until her third year of high school. Perhaps, for Shi Jinglan, the help she gave was nothing more than her little effort, but for their whole family, the help she gave changed their whole family, and changed the fate of her and her sister's life . Before her mother passed away, she repeatedly told her to repay Aunt Shi with gratitude, to repay Aunt Shi well in the future, and to learn from Aunt Shi, to be a useful person in the future, and to help more people in need if she has the ability.
Even later, she lost her mother, the greatest pillar and support of her life, Shi Jinglan invited her to live in her home, and said to her, in the future, you will treat this place as your own home, and let her, a displaced person, Found stability and direction.
Her kindness to her is engraved in her heart and never dared to forget.
Therefore, she regards Shi Jinglan as a benefactor, as a role model, and even as a half mother to respect and love...
"Oh, that's it..." Lin Xian said sullenly.
She always felt that the Shi Jinglan that Xia Zhijin was talking about was different from the Shi Jinglan that Shi Man was talking about with her.
Lin Xian invited Xiao Wanqing the night she got the ticket. Xiao Wanqing had no special work arrangements on Friday, so she agreed without hesitation. But because Lin Xian is not only the director of the participating class, but also one of the two hostesses of the competition, so on the afternoon of the official competition, Lin Xian was too busy to separate himself. Not only does she need to urge the conductor to rehearse several times before the official competition, but she also needs to put on makeup and compare scripts with other hosts. Therefore, on the night of the game on Friday, Lin Xian did not go home for dinner.
So, after get off work, Xiao Wanqing ate dinner outside, then drove straight to Jingnan University, entered the movie theater early with a ticket, found a seat, and waited quietly.
The seats in the theater are divided into left and right sides, with a one-meter-wide aisle in the middle. Xiao Wanqing's seat is the third one in the middle aisle on the left.
Not long after she entered, Lin Xian sent her a text message to care about her: "Aunt Xiao, are you here?"
Xiao Wanqing smiled back at her: "Don't worry, I'm not lost, I'm already in my seat."
Lin Xian quickly said to her playfully and confidently: "Aunt Xiao, just wait to be fascinated by me!"
Xiao Wanqing couldn't help laughing. this kid...
At 6:45, twenty-five minutes before the opening, the audience began to enter the arena in large numbers, and the lights and screens on the stage were also lit up. Xiao Wanqing's left side was already full of people, and looking at the entire row, only the two seats on her right side, the ones in the middle, were still vacant.
Xiao Wanqing took out the SLR from her bag, faced the stage, and adjusted the basic settings such as aperture and focal length, anticipating in her heart how Lin Xian would dress up tonight.
She just took two test photos, and beside her, the owners of the two seats that had been vacant in the middle finally came - it was Xia Zhijin, and a beautiful woman with decent makeup, noble and elegant.
Xiao Wanqing put down the DSLR, turned her head, and gently greeted Xia Zhijin who was sitting next to her: "It's you..." Then, she looked past Xia Zhijin and looked at the beautiful woman in the next seat. He also turned his head to look at her.
Xia Zhijin smiled slightly, seeming a little more reserved than the two times she had seen before, and responded softly: "Hello, Aunt Xiao." Then, she turned her head and respectfully introduced to the woman: "Auntie , this is Lin Xian's aunt." Then, she said to Xiao Wanqing: "Aunt Xiao, this is Man Man's mother."
Xiao Wanqing recognized that woman when Xia Zhijin introduced her sideways—the winner of the most influential entrepreneur of the year selected by Anjiang City last year, the chairman of Shixing Group, Shi Jinglan.
At that time, their magazine wanted to interview her, and the president spent a lot of effort. In the end, for fear of making mistakes, she went to the interview in person, and wrote the manuscript herself. During the interview, Shi Jinglan has always been amiable, always answering questions and talking, and she also naively sighed that Shi Jinglan is approachable. She never expected that when it was time to finalize the draft, she sent the first draft to Shi Xing for review, and Shi Jinglan suddenly became extremely critical. According to Shi Jinglan's request from the person who sent the message, she made major revisions six times before passing the approval of the draft with difficulty, which almost didn't grind her to death.
It is also because of this that Xiao Wanqing can be said to be very impressed with Shi Jinglan—a smiling tiger.
She nodded towards Shi Jinglan, and said politely, "Hello Shi Dong."
Shi Jinglan also nodded towards Xiao Wanqing with a soft complexion, and said with a slight smile: "Editor Xiao, I didn't expect you to be the kind and gentle Auntie Xiao who I've been hearing about all the time. I'm grateful for your care, Hope it didn't trouble you."
Xiao Wanqing replied politely, and said politely: "What did Shi Dong say? It's because my family, Lin Xian, has been taking care of Ling Ai and Zhijin all this time, so there's a lot of trouble."
They were still going back and forth politely, when the lights in the arena suddenly dimmed. The boiling human voice also suddenly quieted down as the light dimmed.
The game is about to start.
The darkness slowly dissipated, and on the stage, colorful lights lit up in an instant, and then two follow-spot lights appeared, one left and one right. On the left, a tall and slender young hostess walked onto the stage gracefully and swaying with lotus steps.
She was wearing a red evening dress with strapless shoulders. The long skirt was short in the front and long in the back. The skirt was long and dragged on the ground, cruising gracefully with her graceful figure. The girl's seaweed-like black hair was delicately braided and rolled up behind her head, and the loose hair in front of her body was permed into beautiful big curls, which were scattered on her clear and obvious collarbone as if she was about to fly. The long gorgeous earrings sparkle under the light.
Elegant and beautiful yet youthful and energetic—it is Lin Xian, a Lin Xian that Xiao Wanqing has never seen before.
Xiao Wanqing's warm eyes were filled with Lin Xian's small reflection, and filled with great amazement. At that moment, she even forgot to raise her hands and use the SLR in her hand to record such a graceful and moving moment of Lin Xian.
"Respected leaders and teachers..." Lin Xian faced the audience calmly and calmly, showing a generous and decent smile, with bright eyes and bright teeth shining brightly.
"Dear students..." The male host in a black suit followed closely behind.
"Good evening!" The crisp female voice and the deep magnetic male voice said in perfect harmony.
Xia Zhijin moved closer to Xiao Wanqing, smiled and praised Xiao Wanqing sincerely: "Aunt Xiao, Lin Xian is so beautiful tonight."
Xiao Wanqing stared at the charming girl on the stage who seemed to be shining, her eyes were soft and sparkling like a clear spring. She lowered her head slightly, zoomed in on the focused screen through the mobile phone raised by the boy in the front row, looked at the smiling Lin Xian, nodded gently, cheerfully, and proudly, and murmured: "It's very beautiful. "
With tenderness in the corners of her brows and eyes that she didn't even notice, she raised the DSLR and focused on Lin Xian, taking pictures of every moving demeanor of Lin Xian seriously and rigorously.
Lin Xian's class was the fifth to perform.
The heroine Shi Man obviously put on her makeup carefully. Her clothes are ordinary and ordinary that fit the plot, but her face is more delicate and bright than usual, so charming that people can't move their eyes. On the stage, she is Shiman, but it seems that she is not Shiman. She is spoiled, squeamish, and ignorant of every move and gesture, as if there is no trace of deliberate carving, as if she was born like this. At this moment, she is not acting, but, she is really experiencing.
Every minute and every second is exciting.
Finally, all the lights on the stage were dimmed, leaving only a bleak spotlight shining on Shiman. Shiman sat paralyzed on the stage, covered his face and wept bitterly, and followed the chopsticks brother's hoarse and mournful "Time slows down, don't let you grow old anymore, I would use everything I have in exchange for your long life" "Stay", which made everyone's noses sore and their eyes red.
Xiao Wanqing lowered her head, quietly hiding the tears that were falling from the corners of her eyes. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Xia Zhijin bit her lips tightly, and under the faint light, there were glistening wet marks on her face.
Shi Jinglan stared at her daughter on the stage without changing her expression, her eyes were deep and thoughtful. After a while, she heard Xia Zhijin's slight gasp, sighed, took a pack of tissues from her bag and handed it to Xia Zhijin. Xia Zhijin wasn't embarrassed, and reached out to take it.
This time, when the performance ended, the applause from the audience was obviously much more enthusiastic than the previous performances, and the applause lasted for a long time.
Holding a DSLR, Xiao Wanqing stared through the camera at Lin Xian who stood in the center of the stage, led all the actors in an orderly and calm manner, and was about to give the audience a curtain call.
The moment she pressed the shutter, she saw that Lin Xian, as if she had a premonition, was precisely facing her camera, and smiled at her with curved eyebrows, and her eyes were flowing, as bright as peaches and plums.
Xiao Wanqing's breathing was slightly stagnant, and the mind popped up: "The waves in Maimai's eyes are full of flowers."
I seem to be, a little bit, fascinated by you...
