The projector was turned on, and the boot screen appeared on the screen. Cao Ye sat on the sofa, and the blue light fell on his face.

Liang Sizhe adjusted the projector and walked over to sit next to him.

"What's the video about?" Cao Ye couldn't help but ask curiously.

"You'll know after reading it." Liang Sizhe said, picked up the remote control and pressed the play button.

The screen jumped out of the screen, the background was a huge band rehearsal room, and there were many musical instrument boxes on the wall, and the sound of a man's voice sounded familiar: "You came here specially for Xiao Ye? I said, I was really surprised to see you." The man walked into the picture, sat on a chair, raised his finger and pointed at the camera, "Are you going to record a picture?"

Cao Ye was slightly stunned. The man on the screen was Li You's former boyfriend, the uncle of the band conductor. After Li You passed away, they lived in different countries and were very busy with each other. They only met briefly a few times when Cao Ye was on a business trip abroad.

"It's for Xiao Ye," Liang Sizhe said outside the camera, "don't worry, the video won't spread."

"Oh... Well, I heard Li You mention you and Xiao Ye, saying that you are very good friends.... You just said you wanted to ask Li You about his last marriage? Actually, I'm not particularly clear, we haven't talked too much. This. But Li You has an old friend who is her classmate in college for many years, and now lives in Japan, I think she will probably know the truth... "

"Do you have her contact information?"

"I really don't have this one yet. Xiao Ye has Li You's mobile phone, and there should be a number stored in it."

"Is there any other way to get her contact information? I want to tell him when everything is clear."

"Is that so..." The man's words seemed to be thoughtful, and he laughed again, "Are you trying to surprise him? I know a few friends who are college classmates with Li You. Maybe they have them. I can help you ask."

The video cuts to the airport, and the destination shows the way to Japan.

The voice outside the words was "Di Di" waiting for the call to be connected. A few seconds later, a woman's voice rang: "Yes, I am Li You's friend, her marriage to Director Cao... You Are you a reporter?"

The plane broke through the clouds, and the title of the film became clear - "Wele to the World" with the gradually blurred voice.

Only then did Cao Ye realize that Liang Sizhe had made a documentary for him.

And this documentary should be related to the marriage of Li You and Cao Xiuyuan, and also to his birth.

In this documentary, Liang Sizhe visited three of Li You's friends before his death. As the conversation progressed, he gradually pieced together the truth of Li You and Cao Xiuyuan's marriage:

"Li You and Cao Xiuyuan... They met at a film festival. It's been more than 20 years. At that time, Li You's band was invited to perform at the opening ceremony of the film festival. Cao Xiuyuan brought his debut film to the exhibition. I got to know each other through this opportunity.”

"Li You and Cao Xiuyuan met backstage, and they quickly chatted about Cao Xiuyuan's movies and Li You's violin music. Li You called me that night and said that she had never met such a hit-and-miss person. It was like fate... I still remember the tone of her voice on the phone, the kind of girl who fell into a crazy love... "

"They were good for a week, right? I remember that the film festival lasted for a week, and the band went back to school after the performance, but Li You skipped class and stayed with Cao Xiuyuan until the film festival ended. She told us after returning to school. Cao Xiuyuan, said he was a genius, said how handsome he was and how talented he was... God, she was going to be fascinated by Cao Xiuyuan, Cao Xiuyuan was not famous at the time, and the few of us who didn't know him were stunned. The consensus is that Li You is crazy."

"After that, they separated. No, no, they didn't break up, but they were only twenty years old at the time. Li You had to stay at school for classes, and Cao Xiuyuan had to go to another place to make movies, so they could only be separated temporarily... Later, after another two months, Li You suddenly told me that she was pregnant. When I asked Li You what she planned to do, she firmly said that she wanted to give birth to this child, and then she took a break from it. Xue, almost cut off ties with her family... She looks very easy-going, but once a decision is made, no one can persuade her.

"Cao Xiuyuan... At that time, communication was not so developed, and Cao Xiuyuan was filming in a very remote place. They should have communicated with each other by writing letters. But I remember that Li You showed me a reply letter from Cao Xiuyuan, the specific wording of the letter. I forgot, it probably means that although he doesn't particularly like children, if Li You wants to give birth so much, he is also very happy to see the combination of their love."

"You ask Cao Xiuyuan if he loves Li You... I think it should be love, otherwise he is so busy making movies, why would he bother to write to Li You? But, to be honest, I think compared to Li You, Cao Xiuyuan may love movies more. After all, during Li You's pregnancy, he only came to see her a few times. Each time he stayed there was very short, but Li You was still very happy. She told me later that although they were pregnant in September There were only a handful of times we stayed together, but she was in a state of passionate love during that year. At that time, she was full of love and water... "

"Why did you break up... In fact, Li You was also very abstract when he told me at the time. My own conclusion is... A few months after the birth of the child, Cao Xiuyuan's film was finally completed. They lived together and thought they would quickly return to the film festival. During that week, I fell into a sweet love, but Li You suddenly discovered that the love that lasted for more than a year was beautified by her fantasy. The real Cao Xiuyuan is indeed handsome and talented, but at the same time he is also paranoid and conceited. I can't take care of my own life, let alone take care of children..."

"After Li You came back, she told me that she and Cao Xiuyuan were only suitable for love, not for life. I think this short life together should have exhausted her love for Cao Xiuyuan... Well, how can I put it, their love is just It was like fireworks, which briefly burnt warmly, but turned into ashes after burning. … They were still too young and impulsive, they were only twenty when they met, and they didn’t understand what life was at all.”

"They got married. On the last day of the week of the film festival, they went to the church to get married notarized without telling everyone the truth. After Cao Xiuyuan became famous, the most widely circulated wedding photo with Li You was that I took the photo at the time. Yes... It's crazy to get married so quickly, but both of them are artistic, and they are very emotional. It's understandable. I think Li You was like this at that time. She was later because of her children. matured."

"My child, Li You is of course very happy that the child was born. I remember that Cao Xiuyuan was also very happy at the time, and he took a plane to come back to see him. After all, their love was still there at that time, and the child was also very beautiful, especially attractive. like."

"After they broke up, they didn't have much contact. They became the ex who met occasionally. Who would have too much involvement with the ex? But even if they broke up, Li You still admired Cao Xiuyuan very much. After all, they really got along that week. , the breakup was also very straightforward, probably both of them realized that they were not suitable for living together, and Cao Xiuyuan is indeed a genius, and it is normal for Li You to appreciate him."

"I shouldn't regret it. I don't remember her saying that she regretted it. As a person, as long as she made her own decision, she would not regret it. But it was true that she was very uneasy at the time, after all, she was such a small child. Life, she didn't know how to hold her at the beginning. She was at a loss for such a small child at the time. It was really pitiful and funny... Because I was very nervous at that time, she also asked me if I had made the decision to give birth to the child. It's too impulsive, I also said that you know the impulsiveness, but I remember she said at the time that she would raise the baby well and make him the happiest child in the world."

"After she broke up with Cao Xiuyuan, she never said that she regretted giving birth to a child. She has always been kind to her child. She also has some international fame, but in my opinion, with her talent, if she doesn't have children to distract her, she can even compete with the top violinists."

"Besides, she never mentioned her father to the child, do you know why? The reason is quite unimaginable... Because she is afraid that after telling the truth, the child will lose expectations of love, isn't it absurd? She actually thinks It's so far... But it's understandable, Li You told me at the time that although her love affair with Cao Xiuyuan ended without a problem, in retrospect, she still felt that it was the most beautiful and warmest seven days in her life, so she I hope that when the child grows up, he can understand this and talk to him about the past."

"She said before her death that she regretted giving birth to Xiao Ye? No, I don't remember her saying that... Let me think about it, it seems like she said it on the phone, but it's not what you understand. At that time, Li You When she returned to China, it was not at all to go to Cao Xiuyuan to discuss divorce as reported by the media. They had long since separated. She was so ill and insisted on returning to China. In fact, she wanted to ask Cao Xiuyuan to take care of Cao Ye in the future. After all, her parents were also very old, and she was afraid After she left, there was no one to take care of and protect Xiao Ye. But she didn't expect Cao Xiuyuan to be involved in a molestation incident at that time, and after talking to Cao Xiuyuan, she knew that Xiao Ye had witnessed him and another man a few years ago. bed thing."

"So the media took a picture of Li You's collapse at the time, saying it was because of a fight for property or something, but it wasn't at all, it was because they had a serious disagreement at the time. Cao Xiuyuan said that Li You should tell Xiao Ye the truth from the very beginning, but It's not about making him vulnerable to living in a vacuum."

"Li You also realized at the time that there was something wrong with the environment she created for Xiao Ye. She called me and said that she had to think about how to discuss this matter with Xiao Ye so that he could accept all this peacefully. But After that, her physical condition suddenly became very bad. It must have something to do with her emotions. It should also be related to the two long-distance flights. After that, she was in a coma almost every day. When I went to see her, she was almost in a coma. I don't have the strength to speak, and my memory has become very bad, so I don't know if she talked to Xiao Ye about this... "

"You're welcome, in fact, when Li You passed away, a reporter asked me about this, but I didn't agree to be interviewed. After all, none of the parties involved talked about it publicly... By the way, my daughter and I are both your fans, can we? Can't you please take a photo with me?"

The conversation with Li You's friend ended here. In the video, Liang Sizhe shook hands with Li You's friend, saying that he would definitely visit with Cao Ye in the future.
