The two sat in the dimly lit cafe, Cheng Fengtai ordered chocolate cake and biscuits with jam for Shang Xirui, and he only wanted a cup of coffee. Shang Xirui scooped up the cream with big spoonfuls, his appetite was amazing. Cheng Fengtai just smoked a cigarette and watched him eat it.
Shang Xirui licked the spoon and said, "Why did the second master leave that day? It's easy to find." He looked up at Cheng Fengtai, the singer's eyesight was well trained, in the dim light, black and white became more and more Crystal clear, bright and beautiful, "Is the second master still satisfied with leaving the Palace of Eternal Life?"
It's fine if you don't mention the Palace of Eternal Life. When it comes to the Palace of Longevity, Cheng Fengtai has a lot to say. As soon as Shang Xirui hooked the hook, Cheng Fengtai released the comments that he had suppressed for a few days with eloquence and emotion. Talk about how touching and wonderful the play is. His eloquence is very good, and he didn't miss the English drama in college, probably he praised it very much. Shang Xirui was pleasantly surprised and moved, he clapped his hands and sighed: "I also like this verse very much... Yes, only the second master noticed that libretto."
Although Shang Xirui's heart is desolate and empty, he is a goblin who has been in the play for thousands of years. But in reality, he is still a superficial boy, eager to be appreciated, enthusiastic, and sought after by everyone. Cheng Fengtai commented on him from the play to the person in an extremely sensational way, and every sentence hit his heart, which made him a little dizzy.
Shang Xirui took a sip of coffee with a smile, his tongue was numb with bitterness, he added two cubes of sugar to the cup, when the sugar melted, he didn't intend to drink any more. He was listening to Cheng Fengtai's speech wholeheartedly. Cheng Fengtai seems to be a fool, but when he becomes emotional, he turns out to be a different person. He speaks well, is romantic and touching, smoking a cigarette, frowning, his eyes are deep and melancholy, like a bard in a drama The poet has a deep and misty temperament.
Shang Xirui never thought that a modern gentleman like Cheng Fengtai would like his plays, and so deeply. This has gone beyond the category of astonishment, it can be called a miracle.
Cheng Fengtai said: "In the past, I always felt that no matter how similar the acting is, people and drama are not the same thing. When it comes to you, I think they are the same thing."
Shang Xirui said: "Because I'm acting with my soul."
Cheng Fengtai took a puff of cigarette, savored this sentence carefully, and thought about combining Shang Xirui's characters and dramas together. Shang Xirui said: For senior sister, I am willing to die! Then Concubine Yang Gui in the play hanged herself in Maweipo. Concubine Yang is loved by three thousand people, possessing thousands of splendors and prosperity. In the end, her beloved could not save her and asked her to die alone; But the beloved abandoned him and left him in the world of mortals, leaving him alone. Looking at it this way, Shang Xirui and Concubine Yang Gui are actually the same.
Thinking of this, Cheng Fengtai's heart shuddered, he couldn't sit still, he looked at Shang Xirui with pain and enthusiasm in his eyes, just like that night in Xiangshan, but with more tenderness .
At this time, it was past one o'clock in the middle of the night, the snow and fog outside the window, only the two of them and a foreigner couple were left in the cafe, the couple were whispering face to face, the waiter secretly yawned and fell asleep . Shang Xirui fell silent following Cheng Fengtai's silence, both parties were too enthusiastic just now, they had exhausted their whole life at once, now they need to settle down and brew. But the precipitated content has nothing to do with drama. Cheng Fengtai secretly made a decision, Shang Xirui seemed to have a premonition of his determination. One is ready to go, and the other is looking forward to it. There is a kind of turmoil hidden in the silence of the two, which makes the quiet and flowing time make a soft sound, just like a blank sound at the beginning of the record, waiting for the sound of breaking the sky at any time.
Finally, Cheng Fengtai called him by name seriously: "Shang Xirui..."
Shang Xirui responded: "Hey, Second Lord."
Cheng Fengtai paused, put out the cigarette butt, put his elbows on the table, and said in a deep voice: "As long as you want, I will always be with you."
Shang Xirui wasn't sure what he meant, he was stunned for a while, and said in a whisper: "Second Master, this is..."
Cheng Fengtai said: "I know you must have no shortage of people, but I must be the most unique one."
Shang Xirui's heart beat like a drum: "Second Master is indeed different. But... why did you suddenly..."
Cheng Fengtai's eyes flickered with tenderness, and he was seductive: "If you were Concubine Yang, you would have to have Tang Minghuang; if you were Concubine Yu, you would have to have King Chu. You are alone now, it cannot be regarded as a play. "
Shang Xirui stared at him blankly, his voice trembling: "Second Master, this is, to be my stage."
Cheng Fengtai said with a smile: "Yes. You are in my palm, sing it!" After saying this, he saw tears welling up in Shang Xirui's eyes, his words caught Shang Xirui just right Xirui lost her heart.
"Then I'm really afraid that I'll never be able to jump out of Second Master's Five Fingers Mountain for the rest of my life."
They fell in love because of the play, and the words of love were also spoken like excerpts from the play. Cheng Fengtai was worried that tonight's confession was a little too abrupt, but when he saw Shang Xirui crying, he realized that Shang Xirui had been waiting for such a person for a long time.
Shang Xirui lowered his head and shed two tears. Cheng Fengtai walked over, pulled him up from his seat, hugged him and patted his back.
Shang Xirui sniffed and said, "Second Master, let me think about it." He didn't know if after Jiang Mengping, he could truly love someone again. Jiang Mengping hurt him so much that it seemed that he had exhausted all his energy and energy.
Cheng Fengtai smiled softly: "Okay. Think about it. I'll wait. Those who are waiting for a walk with Boss Shang..."
When Shang Xirui was relieved from crying, Cheng Fengtai sent him home, held his hand all the way, and whispered something to him when he got there. Shang Xirui nodded, reluctantly got out of the car, Cheng Fengtai watched him enter before letting Lao Ge drive. Lao Ge knew all about the awkwardness between the two of them in a blink of an eye, and deliberately drove the car slowly, just like Cheng Fengtai's nostalgic heart.
When Xiao Lai opened the door and saw the shadow at the rear of the car, he couldn't help frowning, then saw Shang Xirui's wet eyes, red nose, and a drunken smile hanging from the corners of his eyebrows and mouth, Xiao Lai was stunned for a moment, she hadn't seen him in four years Shang Xirui has such a lively expression. Since the Pingyang incident, Shang Xirui was deeply stimulated, the formerly lively and nimble young man became lazy and tired about everything, he didn't talk much, and he was less indifferent than before. Sometimes there is a smile on my face, but I am not really happy in my heart, and my happiness and anger are all superficial, not heartfelt. It seems that after the incident in Pingyang, more than half of Shang Xirui's mind has died. But today he suddenly smiled brightly from the bottom of his heart, and Xiao Lai felt even more terrified.
Shang Xirui didn't notice, crossed Xiaolai, and walked in while undoing the scarf, the scarf was half untied, thinking that it was just put on by the second master himself, he paused in his hand, and the smile deepened on his face. He flicked the scarf like a water sleeve, took a deep breath, and shouted in the courtyard: "Ah! Concubine! Wait for me to step back with you!!!"
Shang Xirui's fine voice made of gold and silver, even though he sings the Dan, it is more powerful than a horn, with a single cry it breaks through the thirty-third heaven and shakes the alchemy furnace of the Supreme Old Monarch. At this time, the night was already very deep, and all of a sudden, he startled the children crying in the east, and the dogs barking in the west, waking up the neighbors with a radius of two miles, and the snow on the eaves rustled down. I don't know who knows how to play, but when he heard this sound, he sat up startled in his sleep, and gave him a hug from the courtyard: "Boss Shang! Wow!!!"
Shang Xirui cupped his hands towards the sky, thanking him for his seat.
Xiao Lai looked at him and thought, he really is going crazy again.
Shang Xirui was overjoyed and had no time to think. On the way back, Cheng Fengtai was a little worried, thinking that he knew that there were tigers in the mountain, so he went to the mountain of tiger. What kind of person is Shang Xirui, who puts all his energy into insanity and is not forgiving, how can he get involved.
In Peking and even in China, he has met hundreds of opera actors, but Shang Xirui shouldn't be the only one. Or you can spend some money to have a touch, but you must not be emotional. In this world, regardless of officials, wealthy businessmen, actors or famous prostitutes, or even married wives and young girls who are waiting to be married, relying on a little wealth to do nonsense, morality and ethics should only be placed on the heads of ordinary people. Words are bullshit. They all look like decent and beautiful scenery figures, but when you pull them apart, the inside is already filthy and rotten. But there is also a way of messing around, which is nothing more than seeking money and power, lusting for fame and other four things. As long as you don't do these four things, it's not considered out of line, and no matter how chaotic it is, there will be an end, and it can be considered that there is a chapter in the chaos. If these four things happen, like now Cheng Fengtai has nothing in mind for Shang Xirui's fame and wealth, but only cherishes it in his heart, then the future is uncertain and unpredictable.
Cheng Fengtai thinks about his sister and brother-in-law, wife and brother-in-law, and new cousins, all these relatives and friends around him have inextricable grievances with Shang Xirui, and one day something will happen , the trouble will be big.
Cheng Fengtai crossed his legs and lit a cigarette in the car. From Beiluoguxiang to Nanluoguxiang, the car arrived in no time, and Lao Ge opened the car door for him before he had smoked a couple of puffs.
Cheng Fengtai got out of the car, threw half a cigarette on the ground, stepped on his leather shoes and crushed it. Anyway, he just likes this little opera singer now, he likes it so much that he can't sleep or eat, he has to hold it in his hand and cover it. As for any troubles in the future, it doesn't matter.
