1.31 - Bai Ze, what makes you think that I am a person who would not help others in need?
Fei Fei anticipated that after his suicide scene, Bai Ze would certainly be softer on him, and netizens would be more tolerant of him while he was still in the hospital. Even if Shen Ran wanted to use this method, it would be impossible. As long as Shen Ran dared to use this method, he would say that Shen Ran was deliberately trying to gain sympathy.
When it comes to double standards, no one can compare with Feifei.
He considered everything very carefully, but forgot one thing, that is Qin Yueli. Ever since Qin Yueli's car accident, he has been excluded from Feifei's attention.
Qin Yueli was injured much more seriously than Bai Ze. When Bai Ze was able to get out of bed and walk, he was still lying in bed half-dead. Until one day, the nurse said someone came to see him. Qin Yueli was stunned. His first reaction was Fei Fei, but when the person pushed open the door and came in, Qin Yueli looked at Shen Ran standing in front of him, and his expression changed slightly.
After the nurse left, Shen Ran smiled and said, "Are you surprised?" His eyes fell on Qin Yueli's legs. One of his legs was in a cast, his foot was terribly swollen, and there were still mottled bloodstains on it.
"I'm very surprised. How come you can escape danger every time? How come you are so lucky?" Until this moment, Qin Yueli still refused to look back. He said stubbornly, "Are you here to laugh at me? I tell you, as long as I live, I will kill you sooner or later."
"Is it so scary? Then you have to get out of prison first. I calculated that you will be in prison for at least eight years this time." Shen Ran sneered, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Are you surprised that Fei Fei didn't come to see you?"
"You forced him to jump off the building and he became disabled. Of course he couldn't come to see me." Qin Yueli said hatefully.
"Yes, he is disabled, but he has a wheelchair. He is unwilling to come to see you even with a wheelchair. You are so miserable." Shen Ran chuckled, his eyes fell on Qin Yueli with a calm and slightly teasing look, "But, I think you may not know one thing yet, right?"
"What?" Qin Yueli felt that the following words might be unacceptable to him, but he still couldn't help asking.
"Fei Fei, he almost died. It was right after you had the car accident. He knew you were seriously injured and couldn't accept it for a while. He almost committed suicide by cutting his wrists. He is still lying there." Shen Ran smiled and said, "Congratulations, you got what you wanted. At least it proves that Fei Fei really loves you."
After Shen Ran left, Qin Yueli was unable to react for a long time.
[999: Why not tell him that Feifei doesn't care about him at all? Maybe it can stimulate Qin Yueli.]
[Shen Ran: If the two words "I don't love" can stimulate Qin Yueli, then he doesn't have to tolerate Feifei for so many years. It's better to let him be more confident. Maybe there will be some unexpected gains. ]
It is indeed immoral to take advantage of other people's emotions, but now that things have come to this, Shen Ran is simply returning the favor.
When he went back, the car had just stopped at the door, and Xiaopang saw Bai Ze. He should have been lying at home to rest, but now he was squatting at the door of Shen Ran's house. It started to snow a little outside, and the weather was still a little cold. Xiaopang asked hesitantly, "Brother Shen, Brother Bai is at the door, should we go back?"
"I'm not going back. I'm going to the set and check on the progress of Director Li and the others' filming." Shen Ran said.
When their car was about to leave, Bai Ze noticed it and immediately prepared to come over, but his injuries had not healed yet, so he walked slowly. He even anxiously wanted to check on Shen Ran's car, but he could only watch Shen Ran's car getting farther and farther away.
The phone in the car rang. Xiao Pang looked at the caller ID, then looked at Shen Ran, but didn't dare to answer it. He asked, "Brother Shen, are you and Brother Bai really over?"
"It's over a long time ago." The car was heated enough to make people feel drowsy. Shen Ran coughed twice and said, "Give me the script. I'll take a look."
"Okay, Brother Shen." Xiaopang saw everything that happened between Shen Ran and Bai Ze. In the past, he would have tried to persuade them, but this time he didn't want to do it. If it continued like this, his Brother Shen would be the only one who would be wronged.
When the car arrived at the set, Director Li came out with a smile and asked, "Didn't we just finish shooting? Why are you here again?"
"I brought some midnight snacks. Let's share them with everyone." On the way, Shen Ran happened to pass by a barbecue stall, so he asked someone to bring some over. He asked, "How's the progress?"
"It's still the same, the old problem of newcomers, we have to take it slow." Director Li is much calmer than he was three years ago. He pointed at the leading actor sitting next to him and said, "He can't get into the role. I've told him so many times, but he still can't get into the role. He said he's not familiar with the other party yet, and there's no emotional foundation, so he can't act out the feeling of life and death."
Director Li couldn't help but shook his head as he spoke, "This matter can't be rushed, we can only guide them slowly."
Xiao Pang greeted the assistant director and the others, and Director Li also signaled. The assistant director then shouted, "Let's take a break! Brother Shen has brought us some food, let's all come and eat together!"
"Thank you, Brother Shen."
"Brother Shen is awesome, this is so thoughtful!"
"I love Brother Shen, I'm almost starving to death..."
...
The young actors and crew members all came over. When it was lightly snowing, they ate some hot barbecue and drank some hot milk tea, which really made them feel a lot more comfortable.
The actor who was criticized by Director Li did not eat much. His role was at a stage where he needed to lose weight, so he was very restrained in eating to prevent gaining weight which would ruin the feeling of the role. He sat aside holding a cup of hot water, studying the script under the light, his expression sometimes smiling and sometimes crying.
Finally, he put the script aside in frustration. When he turned around, he saw Shen Ran approaching him. He immediately stood up and said, "Brother Shen."
Shen Ran's appearance is top-notch in the entertainment industry. Standing in the snow, his face was a little pale, but he still attracted most people's attention. The leading actor asked, "Brother Shen, why are you here? Please sit down first. I'll go get you a glass of water."
"No need." Shen Ran waved his hand, then turned his head to look at the script and asked, "Which scene is it?"
"This scene." Hearing the beginning of the conversation, the lead actor immediately knew that Shen Ran was going to direct him, and he immediately said, "In this scene, I was going to attend the banquet, but I knew that this was a deadly situation. This banquet was specially designed to kill me, so I had to say goodbye to my beloved, but I couldn't let him see that I was about to die... Director Li said that I couldn't act out the pain of separation, but I couldn't feel the character's emotions."
"It's a dead end." Shen Ran's eyes fell on this scene. After watching it carefully, he said, "When you say goodbye to the one you love, he thinks you are going to the town to buy something, so he will wait for you to come back. You can't let him see that you are ready to die, so you have to say this in a relaxed manner, but you are reluctant in your heart."
"Yes, but I don't understand what this feeling is." The leading actor pondered for a long time, but couldn't understand how to express the character's emotions.
"It should be... I know very well that this will be the last time we see each other. I hope you can be happy for the rest of your life, but I can't accompany you. For this, I feel regretful and reluctant, but I have to go to this game where I am sure I will die. I have no choice." Shen Ran looked at the leading actor and laughed, "But the key point is that I was determined when I made this choice."
The lead actor seemed to understand something, and he immediately said, "That is to say, actually when I said goodbye, I was very helpless and reluctant, but I had to do it. I turned around and left resolutely, not only because I made this choice, I was afraid that I would regret it, but also because I was afraid that he would be sad after seeing it."
"Yes." Shen Ran responded.
As soon as he finished speaking, the assistant director's voice was heard not far away. He shouted, "Brother Bai is here to visit the set! He brought delicious food for everyone. Come over here!"
Shen Ran's hand paused slightly, he turned his head and met Bai Ze's gaze. The two looked at each other, but there was no emotion in Shen Ran's eyes, which made Bai Ze feel a little sad.
The lead actor was quite perceptive. Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was not right, he thought of the rumors on the Internet and immediately said with a smile, "Brother Shen, I'll go get some midnight snack. Thank you, Brother Shen."
He ran away in a hurry, fearing that if he delayed here any longer, he would be remembered by Bai Ze.
"I brought your favorite Songhelou dessert. I was going to send it to your house, but when I heard you were coming here, I brought it here." Bai Ze walked in front of Shen Ran and whispered, "Put it in a thermos bag. It's still hot now."
"The doctor told me to eat less sweets." Shen Ran didn't even look at the so-called dessert. He smiled slightly and said, "Thank you, but you should take it back. Don't waste it."
"The doctor said to eat less sweets?" Bai Ze was stunned, obviously taking it seriously. He said, "I'm sorry, I don't know... Then what do you want to eat? Can I take you to eat?"
"No, if there's nothing else, I'll be going back soon." Shen Ran stood up and was about to leave. Bai Ze said quickly, "Shen Ran, listen to my explanation. Fei Fei's incident had nothing to do with me. I saved him not because I like him, but because it was a life. Even if someone else wanted to commit suicide that day, I would have saved him."
Shen Ran paused, he sighed helplessly, looked back at Bai Ze, and said, "I also called 120. I am not angry because you saved Feifei. What's more, there is really no relationship between us anymore... Bai Ze, what makes you think that I am a person who would not help others in need? Or, in your heart, I have always been such a person?"
What disappointed him was not the fact that Bai Ze went to save Fei Fei, but the fact that Bai Ze had always been speculating about him with the greatest malice, whether it was the previous hot searches, the following three years, or even Fei Fei's suicide this time... From beginning to end, there had never been any so-called trust.
"Xiao Pang, let's go." Shen Ran asked Director Li as he passed by him, "Director Li, how many scenes are left?"
"Yours?" Director Li said, "Your scene is shot very quickly, there are probably only five or six more scenes left."
"Okay, can we shoot ahead of time?" Generally, when some artists have a full schedule, they will ask the crew to shoot their scenes ahead of time. Director Li also understood and said, "Of course you can. Your scenes are mainly about memories, so there is no problem shooting ahead of time."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Director Li." Shen Ran said with a smile.
