The cracks in Xie Xuanming's eyes were so subtle that they were almost invisible, but Ji Sheng still caught a trace of shaking in an instant.

He was silent for a while, then held Xie Xuanming's hand, squatted down a step forward, looked up, his eyes were obedient and gentle.

"If you want, I'm Ji Sheng."

Xie Xuanming still lowered his eyes, but the light in his eyes went out little by little.

His expression turned cold, as usual.

Xie Xuanming let go of Ji Sheng, raised his hand and pushed him away: "You don't need to sleep on the sofa today, go to rest next door."

After he finished speaking, Ji Sheng squatted beside the bed for another two seconds before slowly getting up and going out.

When closing the door, he saw Xie Xuanming raised his hand and pressed the center of his eyebrows from the gap, his eyes were full of tiredness and disappointment.

click.

Ji Sheng stepped back and closed the door lightly.

That night, probably frightened by the stimulation of the day, Ji Sheng had a rare dream about his childhood.

He dreamed that he was locked in a dark cabinet, the gap between the door and the bottom of the cabinet let out a few rays of light, but when he looked outside, he saw a distant floor.

Xiao Jisheng shook his hands on the cabinet door, sobbing inaudibly.

The faint sound of a man and a woman making love came from another room, covering up Xiao Jisheng's faint cry for help.

Ji Sheng was still too young at that time, at the age of two to three years old, he couldn't remember the specific things clearly, and he couldn't understand the twists and turns of the adult world. He only knew that when his mother went out, his father would lock him to the top of the closet. In the closet, no matter how much he cries, he won't open the door.

The child's epiphany ability is not weak, and the useless crying little Ji Sheng has long since stopped doing it, but the innate fear of heights cannot be eliminated no matter what.

Xiao Jisheng moved a couple of times, trembling, moved away from the gap, and shrank into a corner where the light couldn't reach.

Compared with the darkness, the abyss-like height scares him more.

Xiao Jisheng trembled for a long time in the corner of the closet, tired from crying and trembling, with drooping eyelids, and fell asleep restlessly.

After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, he was awakened by sharp quarrels.

The man's groaning, the woman's screaming, the sound of smashing things... It started for a moment, and then fell silent again.

Xiao Jisheng listened with pricked ears, and suddenly, the world brightened up.

The door of the cabinet was opened wide, and a pair of hands stretched out, lifting Xiao Jisheng who was trembling unconsciously.

The man's fingers were slender and fair, just looking at her hands made one's heart tremble, and one could feel that she was a beauty, but her fingertips had thick calluses, and the arms connecting her wrists were also rougher than ordinary women. On the strong muscle lines, there were letters and Chinese characters Composition of colorful tattoos.

The master with such contradictory hands held Ji Sheng down tremblingly, seeing his red and swollen eyes and terrified expression, he instantly broke down.

Ji Yueming hugged his son into his arms, and his eyes, which were usually not sore when the sky fell, couldn't stop the tears from slipping out like sand.

She kept repeating sorry.

The young Ji Sheng didn't know what she was sorry for, he only knew that since that day he had never seen the "father" in name, and no man was brought into the house by his mother and told him that they would live together in the future .

Father and darkness disappeared together in Ji Sheng's world.

Only the fear and trembling of heights remain, which is still with me today.

In the morning, Ji Sheng got up sleepily from the bed, the entanglement of the nightmare made him a little dazed, and he was relieved until he got out of bed and stepped on the ground, returning to the clarity of reality.

He went out to wash up, and when he passed the corridor, he saw a neatly dressed Xie Xuanming sitting at the dining table with two breakfasts in front of him.

One eaten, one whole.

Ji Sheng yawned, walked into the bathroom, and raised his hand to touch his withered stomach.

He hoped not to be self-indulgent.

Ji Sheng washed up quickly and returned to his room. There was a piece of sportswear in the closet, which was a bit too big.

Ji Sheng changed, walked to the living room, and sat down at the dining table.

"Mine?" he asked knowingly.

"En." Xie Xuanming didn't lift his head.

Only then did Ji Sheng start in satisfaction. He took a sip of soy milk, choked and coughed twice.

"Not to your taste?" Xie Xuanming asked flatly.

"A little..." Ji Sheng swallowed, "It's too sweet."

"I ordered it according to my taste, and put a little more sugar."

Ji Sheng wiped his mouth with a napkin, and wiped the spilled soybean milk, thinking to himself.

It's not "a little too much" anymore, it's just honey and icing, and it's sloppy.

Is Xie Xuanming a bear? It's so sweet.

But he seems to have a preference for sweets since he was a child.

"Today's program crew filmed a marshmallow roll, would you like to come and get one?" Ji Sheng suddenly remembered the program recording schedule, and asked casually.

Xie Xuanming was looking at his phone, he paused for a moment, then raised his eyes quietly: "Why do you think I would volunteer to participate in an unnecessary recording... just for a marshmallow?"

Ji Sheng was questioned, and he also realized that it was a bit exaggerated for a Conferred God actor to go all the way for cotton candy.

He said with difficulty: "Because you like to eat cotton candy."

"I don't like it." Xie Xuanming remained expressionless.

"Ah, so." Ji Sheng sneered, "Then you, have a good rest."

Xie Xuanming looked at him for a while, saw Ji Sheng's scalp numbly looked away, then lowered his eyes again, and said "hmm" perfunctorily and mockingly.

Ji Sheng was sent back to the recording place by the driver.

It was probably yesterday that he slammed the program crew without saying anything, while Xie Xuanming spread his wings and made the officials bow their heads to apologize. Sheng, they are gentle and pleasant, and they nod and bow when they are serious, they are very flattering and polite.

Ji Sheng also enjoyed the joy of pretending to be a tiger, dumbfounding, and was directly sent to the scene of making extras along the way, where he merged with Nirvana.

"Xiao Hui is here! Come and have a look, the cotton candy machine!" The keyboard player was the first to notice Ji Sheng, and rushed him upstairs, pointing to the front and shouting. He is young and has a childlike heart. He gets excited when he sees something interesting, "The program team is really generous."

Ji Sheng looked in the direction he pointed and saw a row of cotton candy machines.

Is this going to be a cotton candy spinning mill? The corner of Ji Sheng's mouth twitched twice, and he said, "It's quite generous."

Huang Sizhe angrily pulled Ji Sheng out of the keyboard, and patted the forehead of the keyboard angrily: "Childish, pay attention to the image."

"Cut!" The keyboard stuck out its tongue at him.

At this moment, the program team announced the start of recording, cheered from the keyboard, and rushed out with the guitarist first, Huang Sizhe shouted a few words to keep up, and Lu Haoren and Ji Sheng followed slowly at the end.

KUZI deserves to be a big player in the talent show variety show, just such a happy tidbit of rolling cotton candy, all have to engage in competition.

"The first to record a promotional video alone, and the second and third to promote a single on official blogs!"

The director shouted with a loudspeaker.

There was a commotion at the scene.

If there is a reward, there is motivation, at least Nirvana is fully active.

Ji Sheng's skills accumulated from part-time jobs in the past naturally include rolling marshmallows, which is a must for street craftsmen. He operated it a few times, and the other members were stunned. He automatically gave up the operating position to him and retreated. The second line went to command.

"Add some powder, it looks good." The keyboard looked eagerly.

"Green, green, add green!" Guitar chattered.

"Yellow yellow."

"Yellow ghost, the yellow ones are mangoes, I don't know that Ji Hui is allergic to mangoes!" Huang Sizhe was furious.

"Who else remembers this kind of thing except you... Xiaohui can't even remember it, can she?" the keyboard muttered.

"Ah? I still remember." Ji Sheng smiled, and calmly withdrew his hand that was reaching for the yellow sugar grain.

Under Ji Sheng's unscrupulous display, Nirvana won the first place with a colorful half-human marshmallow without any surprises. Of course, when they were holding the marshmallow to record the video, they realized that they were really blocked by that thing, and five people were blocked. Three, the video promoting the band went straight to a Marshmallow promotion.

After recording the video, Nirvana rested for a while and was sent to touch up her makeup.

They also want to record yesterday's stage again.

The drummer was accidentally lifted into the air due to a faulty elevator.

In addition to apologizing, KUZI gave a compensation plan and asked Nirvana to record a normal performance video to make up for the stage mistakes caused by accidents.

Although Ji Sheng's performance didn't go wrong because of the lift-off, but the program team gave him one more chance to show off, and Nirvana readily agreed.

The recording was arranged in the evening, at a performance stage that had not yet been disassembled.

Xie Xuanming had a recording itinerary at night, and when he arrived at the scene, he was stuffed with marshmallows as soon as he got out of the car.

Xie Xuanming held a small stick wrapped in heavy sugar silk, and asked expressionlessly, "This is it?"

"This is what Ji Hui left for you, Teacher." The staff member said.

"Oh." Xie Xuanming looked at the white pointed pink love heart silently, sincerely wondering, "He thinks I like pink?"

"Maybe you think pink is cute?" The staff tried to make up for it.

"cute?"

"Cute, right!"

The two stared at each other for a while, and Xie Xuanming finally let go of the trembling marshmallow delivery man: "Okay, I'll trouble you."

The marshmallow delivery man was relieved and quickly slipped away.

Xie Xuanming stood alone, holding the cotton candy and thinking seriously, whether he should take this thing to record, or put it somewhere before recording.

While he was struggling, a few staff members rushed over to him.

"Something happened over there on the stage...the roof collapsed during a band rehearsal!"

"How could such a big incident happen! No one was hurt!"

"I don't know. The area of the collapse is in the second half of the area. I heard that the drummer was buried under it."

Xie Xuanming's right eye twitched, he stepped forward to grab one of them, and asked sharply, "Which band did the accident happen?"

"Thank you actor!" The man was shocked when he saw him.

"Which band?" Xie Xuanming asked.

The man hesitated and said, "It's the band that was re-recorded today. Yesterday the drummer was accidentally raised to go to that one, called Ji Hui..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Xie Xuanming throw the white flower dumpling in his hand, turned around and rushed towards the stage quickly.

The marshmallow fell on the ground and rolled twice. The staff lowered their heads, and the white candy shreds were covered with dust, making them dusty.

Fourth Charity Hospital

Inpatient department, single ward.

The nurse Xiaohong took a hot towel and gently wiped the face of the person on the bed.

She wiped the corners of her eyes, then wiped her neck carefully, squatted down, soaked the towel in water, and twisted it twice.

When she got up again, Xiaohong was taken aback.

She turned her head and saw a skinny hand grabbing herself, with tattoos and skin hanging loosely from the bone and trembling.

Looking up, Xiaohong was surprised to find that the patient in bed No. 4 who had been in a coma for nearly two years now opened her eyes and looked at her without blinking.

"Where is this?" Ji Yueming said hoarsely, "Where is my son?"
