Ning Ning suddenly took a breath and opened his eyes.
In an empty cinema, the hot drink in his hand is still emitting the last trace of heat, and on the opposite movie screen, the story has just begun.
"Xiulan." Chen Junyan said, "I have a plan, if it succeeds, you and I will be saved."
"What plan?" Li Xiulan asked.
"I've already made inquiries. The head teacher has a daughter." Chen Junyan said, "He is about to pick someone to perform acrobatics for her. You and I will go together... Then you will attack her."
Li Xiulan was taken aback and shook her head hurriedly: "I don't do it! The class teacher will kill me!"
"The circus is short of manpower, so he will punish you at most and won't kill you." Chen Junyan reached out and touched her cheek, "Besides, only in this way can I have an excuse to approach Miss, gain her trust, and use her to give us two Create opportunities."
Li Xiulan put her hand on the back of his hand and pressed her cheek to his hand affectionately: "What if... the class teacher gets angry and asks me to choose a wooden man from a wooden box?"
"No matter what you become..." Chen Junyan stared at her tenderly, "I like you all."
Seeing this scene, Ning Ning murmured: "So it is."
It turned out that from the moment they met, everything was in Chen Junyan's plan. He persuaded Li Xiulan to accompany him in a play, a play of a hero saving beauty.
The movie continued, Ning Ning saw herself appearing on the screen, Li Xiulan clasped her neck with nine rings, and then gave Chen Junyan a look, Chen Junyan, who was already ready, rushed up, knocked Li Xiulan away, and rescued her .
From the audience's point of view, how tacit understanding the two of them are and how righteous they are in what they do.
But when Boss Qu appeared in front of the camera, she couldn't help shedding tears.
Obviously only a supporting role, an unforgivable villain, but why does she want him to appear in the camera again.
"Good-looking, my Ningning is the most beautiful girl in the world."
"...Don't be in such a hurry, knife skills don't take a day or two, you can practice it well by one person or two, you wait here, Dad will find some materials for you!"
"I know what you did in the box."
"There is always no reward for good intentions, and in the end, it is always yourself who is scarred."
"I hate this world, the world has never been kind to me, and I won't be kind to this world. But today is your birthday, the only day the thief will be kind to me, if... If this is you wish..."
"...Shut up! Don't laugh, whoever laughs at me kills whoever!"
"Ahhhhh!!!"
Ning Ning suddenly bent down, hugged herself and started shaking. In the shrill wailing, she rolled and crawled towards the cinema door. She raised a face covered with a snow-white mask and looked at the back of her galloping past.
"It's all fake!! It's all fake!! You can't lie to me!!" Ning Ning rushed into the rain, crying while running, her tears washed away by the rain.
The guard suddenly rushed over a few steps, grabbed her arm and dragged her back.
"Fake... woohoo, it's all fake..." Ningning was still crying, and the heavy rain had turned her into a jerk.
The guard raised his hand for a taxi, opened the door and tucked her in.
"Where?" the driver asked.
Ning Ning choked for a while before reporting her address, the car started, and on the way home, she looked down at the time, it was only 1:40 in the morning, and what she had experienced before was just a movie time…
There was also a new WeChat message lying on the phone, which was sent to her by the agent, telling her: "The story overview and character design have been sent to your mailbox. Tomorrow's audition, you can study it carefully today, and don't waste this rare opportunity."
Ning Ning wiped her tears with one hand, opened her mobile phone mailbox with the other hand, and opened the story overview and characters to see. At this time, anything is fine, as long as it can divert her attention, she reads the play in a trembling voice. Name: "Ugly Girl."
It tells the story of a modern version of a prince and a mermaid.
The male protagonist is young and rich. He was seriously injured in an accident, and as a result, his eyes were blinded for a while. The beautiful female protagonist rescued him and took care of him. In order to test his sincerity, he joked that he was ugly, but the male protagonist He still said that he would love her. Later, when the male protagonist received the final treatment, the female protagonist left temporarily for something, and the male protagonist mistook the female supporting role for her.
"Female partner Qu Ling." Ning Ning whispered the character of the female partner, "Ugly, narcissistic and frivolous, self-righteous, but because of a good and rich father, he has been living smoothly. He was mistaken for a female The Lord will not correct it in the future, and will be the male lead's girlfriend by mistake. Later, my father's company closed down, and she was exposed in public, and Yu lived in the ridicule of everyone."
The vulgar character design with less than 100 words, for some reason, formed a complete story in her mind.
How was she born in the expectation of her parents, how did she grow up with thousands of pets, she went to elementary school, middle school, high school and college designated by her father, no one ever criticized her appearance and her character, for this What kind of efforts did her father put in behind the scenes? But her father died in a car accident, his company went bankrupt, she lost everything overnight, and even the only male protagonist she could rely on coldly called her: ugly girl in front of everyone.
It's a hilarious buffoon, and I'd rather just cry.
Back at home, she walked into the entrance wetly, staggering, leaving behind a string of water stains, like the footprints of tears. Looking at the clock on the wall, she muttered to herself: "I have to go to bed early, I can't get dark circles under my eyes, I have to get up early tomorrow, figure out the character, think about the lines, and prepare for the audition in the afternoon, I will Can't... Can't think about the movie theater anymore... It's a dream, yes, it's a dream! It's all fake, the movie theater is fake, Time Travel is fake, Dad..."
There was a thunderstorm outside the window, the sky and the earth were white, and after the white, it was darkness.
Ning Ning started to tremble again. She hunched her body and slowly fell to her knees. Her forehead was firmly against the icy ground. Getting bigger and bigger, more and more stern, and finally she cried out loudly: "Dad!!!"
Boom - The rain is like a flood that God wants to destroy the world.
Inside the empty movie theater, the doorman wearing a snow-white mask stood quietly in front of the movie screen.
On the screen, the story is playing out to the last scene.
There was a lot of snow, and the crowd ran wildly. A fire man came towards them. Li Xiulan raised his finger and pointed at him: "Shoot him to death!"
The gunshots sounded, and Boss Qu fell to the ground, holding Ning Ning in one hand and supporting the snow in the other. On the only spectator off-camera.
"I won't die." Boss Qu said.
"I won't drink Meng Po soup even if I die." The guard looked at him proudly.
"I will remember your appearance." Boss Qu said, "I will become a dog in my next life, and I will bite off your neck."
"Become a bird," continued the guard, "and peck out your eyes."
"Life after life..." Qu Lao Dao.
"Reincarnation is constant..." the guard replied.
The flames burned on Boss Qu, but the hatred in his eyes burned even more intensely than the flames.
That flame passed through time, through space, through the screen in front of him, and reflected on the mask on the guard's face, dyeing his original snow-white mask red as blood.
On the screen and off the screen, two voices sounded at the same time, one was hoarse, the other was calm and deep, the other was hot as fire, and the other was as cold as ice.
"This hate is endless!!!"
The screen went dark.
Then, along with the sad ending song, the cast rolls up from the bottom. The male protagonist is Chen Junyan, the female protagonist is Li Xiulan, and the names of the supporting roles are as many as Fanxing, Wang Ma, Little Freckles, Long Er, and... Ning Ning and Qu boss.
Until the end, a few big white characters appeared on the screen.
"The Circus of the Republic of China".
Finish.
As one story ends, another begins. When one night passes, another day comes.
After the rain, the city was shrouded in overcast clouds, gray and dark, and even the morning was like night.
There was a person lying on the cold floor. It was Ning Ning who had slept on it all night. The moment the phone buzzed, she suddenly opened her eyes.
"Hello." She answered the phone, "Okay, I see... I'm fine, I just overslept, I'll get dressed and go out right now... Don't worry, I'll be there before the audition starts."
Hanging up the phone, Ning Ning slowly got up from the ground, her body was very cold, from toes to fingers, she drooped her arms, swayed into the bathroom like a walking corpse, took off her clothes, and turned on the hot water to rinse herself, But the moment the hot water was poured down, she fled with an ahh, as if she was caught on fire.
"It's so hot... It's so hot..." Ning Ning hung her long hair down, she would tremble when she hugged herself, then she shivered and changed the hot water to cold water, standing under the cold water without saying a word.
After rinsing for ten minutes, she turned off the water, wrapped a bath towel, grabbed the towel on the back of the chair, wiped her wet hair and walked out of the bathroom to the cabinet where the clothes were placed, opened the cabinet, there were many A lot of clothes, she knew that she was going to try a modern drama, but for some reason, she stretched out her hand and pulled out an old-fashioned red cheongsam.
The audition was two in the afternoon, and she came to the audition at half past one.
It is clear that the male and female protagonists and the male and female roles have basically been determined. Next, we only need to hold a small audition at the director's house, but we have to make it so powerful. I don't know why, maybe it's for publicity.
Ning Ning walked while thinking about it, and a voice that was not sure came from behind: "Is that... Ning Ning?"
"Looks like it's her."
"... Is she on drugs? Why does she look like this?"
"As for the most beautiful vase in the new generation, I feel cheated."
Not far away, the hero of the film, Chen Shuanghe, looked at him expressionlessly. The assistant beside him shook his head and commented, "It seems that the pressure of the audition is too much, and it has completely collapsed."
Looking at the walking corpse's back, Chen Shuanghe's eyes were complicated, pity, contempt, disappointment, disdain, and asked himself, is such a person worth his efforts to crush
"No." He sneered in his heart, "It only takes a minute to crush her!"
