Li Dian’s words almost cost Lai Yang his life!
Now Yuan Shengda has left the theater. If Li Dian leaves too, the former three-person team will completely collapse!
Lai Yang opened his eyes wide, his mouth trembling as he said, "You, say it again?"
Li Dian took off his glasses, reached out and touched his cheek heavily, and said with a sigh: "Laiyang... I, I have lived too depressed in the past few years, and I regret it too much..."
Li Dian looked up at Lai Yang, tears welling up in his eyes.
"You know what? When I first heard that you were going to get engaged to A'lu, I almost wanted to die that day! In the end, it was only after Xu Mo talked to me on the phone for more than three hours that I... was able to regain some sanity. I envy you, envy that you can play and fight with her, but I... I dare not reveal my feelings at all. In fact, when I first met her, I deliberately put on a stern face in front of her... I was afraid that she would notice my feelings... But I am in pain, why am I like this!"
Lai Yang was deafened. Since he knew Li Dian, he had only seen him have emotional breakdown twice.
Once was with his mother, and the second time was tonight.
How big of an impact would it take for a dull stone like Li Dian to become like this
Li Dian rubbed his eyes, raised his head and choked up, "Now I regret it, and she...she broke up with Alu. I feel that I have hope. Laiyang, you can understand, just like you like President Tian, as long as that hope starts to shine, everything will be eclipsed by it... Nothing else matters, I just want to be with her, I only want to be with her in this life, no matter where we go, no matter what we do...anything is fine!"
"You, you... but, but you make a loud noise to her, she... doesn't like you."
Lai Yang gritted his teeth and said it out.
Li Dian raised his head and sighed, "I know... but she didn't like A'lu either, but they almost got married, didn't they? This is where I can't compare to A'lu. At least he dared to pursue her. As long as he pursued her, there was still hope. Laiyang, I have made up my mind... Unless she really gets married, I must stay with her. She doesn't like me, Li Dian... then I will change and become the person she likes. Li Yuanba is also fine~"
Lai Yang's open mouth could no longer be closed.
He didn't know whether he should persuade him to stay or go find Yuan Shengda.
It seems like there is no right or wrong choice.
It was just that Lai Yang found it hard to digest hearing so many news of leaving in just one or two days.
But Yuan Shengda
He and Li Dian were like a piece of flesh growing in his heart. When they left, his heart felt empty.
In the midst of astonishment, Lai Yang lit a cigarette, handed one to Li Dian, and asked.
"Can you tell me why you like Sheng Da? Is it just because she's pretty?"
Li Dian took the cigarette with trembling fingers, but did not light it. He turned the cigarette butt with his fingertips and said.
“Do you remember when the theater was first established, there was a stray cat with white and black spots that often wandered around the theater entrance?”
"Hmm... I remember that I once fed the cat half a sausage, and then the cat seemed to have died of illness."
Li Dian panted and nodded, "It died of illness. You went to discuss cooperation that day, and Shengda took the initiative to find me and asked me to go with her to bury the cat... Laiyang, my dad also raised an orange kitten before he died. He once said that when the kitten grew up, his illness would be cured. But on the third day after his death, I... I had a quarrel with my mother, and when I pushed the refrigerator, I accidentally... crushed the cat to death..."
Lai Yang took a breath and listened to him continue.
"I almost collapsed at that time. It was the only living thing left by my father, and it was his spiritual sustenance. And I was an executioner... I killed it with my own hands. Even after I came to Shanghai, I still couldn't let it go."
Li Dian bit his trembling lips.
"Until... I went with Shengda to bury the stray cat, and I saw her crying for it. That tear seemed to purify the dead soul in an instant, and also redeem me who was trapped in the darkness. I felt that she shed it for me... Maybe she didn't think so, but in my eyes... that tear sublimated my feelings for her, and made me feel... that this was the fate between us."
Lai Yang was a little confused, he put out his cigarette and murmured: "Fate?"
"Yes, just like you feel that you and Tian are always destined to be together because of fire, Laiyang... do you think we are not destined to be together?"
Li Dian said anxiously, "Look, I smashed my house when I left, and she smashed her store when she left. What does this mean?"
"It means... you both have irritability. It's a disease. You need to see a doctor."
Li Dian laughed because of this sentence, and his laughter also infected Lai Yang, so in this quiet night, a burst of hearty laughter was finally heard.
But at this time Lai Yang also thought of what Li Dian’s mother said.
When she left, she told herself that Li Dian was the type of person who "suppressed" himself, but once he could no longer suppress himself, he would be more aggressive than the average person.
More rebellious, more out of control.
This has come true!
Lai Yang also knew that it was irreversible, and his mood became heavy again.
"So when are you going to leave?"
"Just one or two days."
Li Dian added, "Many people have already refunded their tickets tonight because of the schedule adjustment. I don't think we can perform until the 7th. Let's gather the audience together and adjust it to the 5th."
Lai Yang hummed in a low voice, then scratched his hair fiercely. He felt that the theater was about to split apart!
…
The next day was a cloudy day with large dark clouds covering the sky.
Tian Jing hadn't sent a message for a whole day. Lai Yang knew she was busy, so he didn't disturb her, but he felt particularly disappointed.
Around noon, Lai Yang tagged everyone in the group and said that he would come to the theater for a meeting in the afternoon. After sending the message, when he went downstairs to throw away the garbage, he received a call from Aru.
Looking at the overcast sky, Lai Yang had a very bad thought.
After answering the phone, he lit a cigarette, and the sound of burning tobacco came from the other end. After a while, Aru spoke with a slightly distorted voice.
"Brother Yang... Please apologize to everyone for me this afternoon. I can't come."
Lai Yang smoked heavily and remained silent.
"I'm glad to have known you all for so long. You are everything to me in Shanghai. Maybe every city will have a talk show theater in the future, and even a branch of Boxiao, but I will never meet you guys again..."
Alu cried, his voice intermittent and trembling.
"Shengda is gone... My heart is broken too. Thank you for all the effort in preparing the engagement gifts... I will never forget you all... Brother Yang, you must make the theater a success and keep the remaining people here. I really hope... that if I come back one day and you are all still here, I will definitely go on stage and tell our past stories... all with a smile."
"Aru..."
"Goodbye Brother Yang, goodbye...Boo Xiao Club, goodbye..."
The call was hung up, Lai Yang called back immediately, but found that he had been blocked.
At this moment, he raised his head and looked towards the bluish-brown sky in the distance. In the thick clouds, a rain formed by the tears of the earth was brewing!
After this rain, this summer may be over...
The people and stories of Shanghai will be completely washed away with the arrival of an autumn rain.
