Early the next morning, Leo was woken up by the ringing of his cell phone. He put the phone to his ear in a daze and called "hello" twice before he realized he hadn't pressed answer.
------That fool just now must not be me!
After talking for a few words, Leo suddenly heard the agent on the other end of the phone mention Ethan. He suddenly came to his senses, "Brother Zheng, don't worry. Ethan is easy to get along with. He has a good personality... He looks good, and his acting skills are amazing!... I have a broad mind that can accommodate people from all corners of the world. I don't have any inferiority complex, envy, jealousy, or hatred..."
He scratched his messy hair. It was almost eight o'clock. Leo simply pressed the speakerphone, got out of bed and went to the closet to look for clothes.
After reassuring his agent, Leo hung up the phone, quietly opened the bedroom door, and yawned with his mouth wide open without any idol burden. With tearful eyes, he suddenly saw a person sitting on the sofa, and his yawn got stuck in the middle, and his temporomandibular joint almost dislocated.
He put his hand to cover his mouth, and when he saw Ethan looking over, he immediately put his hand down with a standard smile, "Good morning, didn't you want to sleep a little longer?"
"Good morning." Ethan also smiled back, "I can't sleep when the time comes, so I might as well get up."
Pulling the bedroom door with the back of his hand, Leo put on his slippers and walked to the sofa, "Your biological clock is so powerful, but I can't. I feel like I lack sleep every day, and I think about it every morning. Why did I fall back on the bed without paying attention?" went."
"Maybe it's because of gravity?" Ethan still had a faint blue shadow under his eyes, but it was much better than last night. He tilted his head to look at Leo, his light-colored lips slightly curved, and the ending of his voice was hooked, which made him look particularly sweet.
"Yeah! No wonder I have to rely on explosive power to get up every morning!" Leo decided to write it down - one more good reason to deal with his agent!
Looking away from the corner of the other party's smiling mouth, Leo thought to himself that he had indeed not deceived Aaron just now. This roommate, at least on the surface, seemed really easy to get along with, so he spoke more relaxedly,
"Do you want to use the bathroom? If not, I'll go wash up."
"I've already used it, go ahead."
Ethan spoke slowly and calmly, which made people feel very comfortable. He sat in a relaxed position, but his back was straight, with a rough ceramic cup in front of him.
Leo glanced at it as he passed by and found that most of the green tea leaves were in the cup, and his mouth immediately turned bitter. However, Ethan's fingers happened to rest on the handle of the cup, and the ceramic cup immediately transformed from a five-yuan item on the roadside to a five-hundred-yuan high-end product.
Alas, looks save everything!
After cooking two eggs for breakfast, Leo saw Ethan flipping through a stack of A4 papers. He didn't avoid him and asked casually, "What are you reading?"
"script."
"??" Almost choking on the egg yolk, Leo quickly took a sip of water and subconsciously prepared to move over to watch, but immediately stopped, "The script of the movie we are going to shoot? The new version?"
"Well, someone knocked on the door this morning. As soon as the door opened, the person ran away, leaving only a blue plastic bag hanging on the door handle." Ethan handed another book to Leo, "I saw that the cover was marked with 'Script 9.2', which should be different from what we received before."
"The last version I received was version 7.1. This update is too fast!" Leo finished the boiled egg in a few mouthfuls and flipped it over hastily. "Even the age of the protagonist has been changed. Tsk, the screenwriter must have changed it again." I cried a hundred times after being tortured by Director Zhang."
Afterwards, both of them fell silent, and the only sound left in the house was the sound of paper being turned.
"The characters are more layered than the previous version." Ethan took a sip of strong tea and smiled a little deeper, "Director Zhang's style, which focuses on small local people, is very exciting."
"Right, right, right!" After reading it, Leo became excited. He looked at Ethan with great interest, "Then... the right paragraph?"
Ethan didn't say whether it was good or bad, but as soon as he spoke, his tone and voice changed significantly, "Qin Chao, you see, I have been doing carpentry for two hours."
When he said this, Ethan's sitting posture changed, with his legs slightly apart, as if something was placed between his knees. His expression was dull, his back was bent, and he looked uneasy, but there was a hint of worry under his usual calm tone.
As soon as he heard this beginning, Leo realized that Ethan had chosen the middle of the third scene, where Qin Chao, who had been a policeman outside for several years, resigned and returned to the town, where he met Xu Zhan, with whom he grew up.
Looking at the opponent's posture and expression, he felt as if his nerves were electrified - a sense of excitement as if he had found an opponent!
With legs apart, Leo's movements were somewhat rough, his fingers were in the position of holding a cigarette, and he answered casually, "Time flies when you watch me do carpentry."
He pulled the corners of his mouth, but failed to smile. The arc of his mouth retracted, revealing some dejection. Twisting his thumb and index finger, "Qin Chao" said in a deep voice, "A Zhan, do you think being a carpenter is harder than being a policeman?"
"Ah Zhan" shook his head gently, still dull, but the worry in his eyes was more obvious.
Qin Chao's smile was fleeting, and he said in a light, nonchalant tone, "Then I'll learn carpentry from you, earn a living, and not become a policeman. Do you think you will accept me as your apprentice?"
After glancing at "Qin Chao", "A Zhan" tilted his head slightly, pursed his lips, and answered after a while, "If you don't stop, you won't be able to be a carpenter if you are not calm." His voice was small but firm. .
"Qin Chao" stared at the person in front of him, his eyes piercing, his nose gradually inflamed, as if he had reached the critical point, he suddenly stood up and growled in a low voice, "You fcuking look down on me, right? Ah?"
Veins bulged on his temples, like a beast imprisoned in an iron cage, unable to vent his anger. "Qin Chao" kicked the coffee table with a dull "bang".
"I didn't." "Ah Zhan" said only this in a very low voice. He looked up and quietly looked at the fierce man. Then he lowered his head and continued to do the carpentry work in his hands, leaving a quiet profile.
Time passed slowly for more than ten seconds, and Leo suddenly discovered that the aura of Ethan sitting opposite him had changed again, like a pool of corrosive black water, and his originally dull eyebrows were like blades, which made people feel nervous.
He could feel that this was another scene.
"Surprised?" Qi Chang'an, no, "Ah Zhan" looked at "Qin Chao" with a mocking smile on his face.
He swallowed and said, "Yes." Leo quickly got into the role. "Qin Chao" spoke in a hoarse voice, clenched his fists and slammed them on the table twice to calm down, but he still couldn't suppress it. He raised his voice suddenly, "I can't be surprised? You are my brother who grew up with me! How the hell can it be------"
"Murderer." "A Zhan" took the words in a calm tone, said the words "Qin Chao" did not dare to say, and then stood up.
Leo subconsciously took a step back, his back feeling cold.
He watched Ethan approach him step by step, and then the body temperature of the two people touched. In his ears were Ethan's warm breath and cold words, "Qin Chao, I killed more than one person." As he said, He laughed softly, "But---can you find the evidence? Huh?"
The tone is pleasant.
At this moment, "Qin Chao"'s breathing calmed down. He slowly raised his hand, exerted force with his five fingers, and held the person tightly in his arms. He also leaned close to the other person's ear, and the breath came out from between his teeth. "If I can't find any evidence, the sons I will give birth to will have your last name!"
Sensitively, when he put his hand on Ethan's back, the other person stiffened for a few seconds. Leo quickly withdrew his hand, and the fierce aura on his body instantly dissipated. He fell back on the sofa sideways, holding his feet and howling, "It hurts, it hurts------"
The tears that had been held back finally filled his eyes, and Leo's face wrinkled like a rag. "If I had known the coffee table was so hard, I would have pretended to kick it! It hurt so much that it spiraled and exploded!"
Ethan was amused when he saw him hopping on one foot, and his body slowly relaxed.
His toes were still aching, but Leo looked at Ethan who had returned to his seat, and suddenly understood why he had watched "Snowstorm" more than ten or twenty times and still never got tired of it. Why was it only with the movie "Snowstorm" that Ethan, who had just entered the entertainment industry, defeated a series of famous directors and actors and won the Best Actor Award at the Wales International Film Festival that year.
He really has a wonderful attraction. No, he must be cheating!
In those few minutes, Leo felt that he was really facing Ah Zhan, the young carpenter in the small town who was dull but very capable. It is undeniable that although his role was more emotional, he was led by Ethan from beginning to end.
But it felt so good that he felt like he could go to heaven in the next second!
His heart was beating so fast, Leo didn't know how to describe this excitement. He simply took out a wet towel and wiped his hands, then stretched them in front of Ethan, took a deep breath, and said, "Happy cooperation!"
After staring at Leo's hand for a while, Ethan also stood up and put his hand on Leo's hand, "Happy cooperation."
The wet wipes smell of green tea, which permeates the surrounding air.
Seeing that Ethan quickly retracted his hand, Leo sat down and reluctantly took out a wet tissue and handed it over, "I know you dislike my hand for just touching my foot."
Ethan did not deny it, but continued naturally, carefully not even missing the gaps between his fingers.
Lying awkwardly on the sofa, Leo watched Ethan wipe it once and then again, and laughed, "That's enough. Can you please stop wiping it in front of me? It hurts your self-esteem!"
"Okay." Ethan's expression was also quite relaxed. He looked up at the person sitting lazily opposite him and said, "Then as compensation for hurting your self-esteem, shall I treat you to a meal?"
"Eating out?" Leo sat upright holding a pillow, touched his chin, and suggested, "It's boring to go out to eat. Let's cook at home! I wish us success in our cooperation and happy living together!"
Ethan didn't care, but, "I can't cook, can you?"
"That must be possible! What are the essential skills for a good family man in the new century? Let me show you!"
The next morning, Leo closed the kitchen door tightly, wondering what he was doing inside. Ethan sat on the sofa and continued reading the script, very calm.
After twelve o'clock, the kitchen door opened. Leo stood at the door and made a "forbidden" gesture to Ethan, saying mysteriously, "Don't move yet. Wait until I finish serving the dishes, then come over."
Ethan cooperated very well and sat back down with the script in his hand.
Five minutes later, Leo stood beside the table and said, "Okay, you can come and enjoy my masterpiece!"
After Qi Chang'an stood beside the table, Leo pointed to the dish on the plate and introduced it, "This is scrambled eggs with tomatoes," and then pointed to the soup, "This is tomato and egg soup." After saying that, he looked at Qi Chang'an expectantly. If he had a tail, it would have started wagging proudly.
Ethan looked at the soups and dishes on the table. The compliments he had thought of before were a bit inappropriate. In the end, he could only praise them simply, "It's amazing."
However, this compliment comforted Leo's broken heart. He took out his phone to take a photo, and then quickly posted it on Weibo with the words, "Isn't it amazing? I will be proud for 50 days!"
After posting on Weibo and Moments, Leo sat down contentedly. "My agent always says that I post on Weibo too frequently and that I have no sense of mystery, but I don't understand how someone can post only once every six months. If I don't post on Weibo for a day, I feel like my talent is not being fully utilized!"
Ethan belongs to the group of people who "never post on Weibo." He thought for a while, "Maybe those people think that there are nothing interesting things in life that they can share with others."
"How could it be? There are so many interesting things, hey, let me show you this!" Leo handed over the phone, and the topic was running for a hundred meters, "Fans dug it out, this is my look when I debuted at the age of nineteen, At that time, I still had pure black hair. Look, my hair was very black, like a purebred sesame seed born from black sesame and black sesame. It was shiny and black. Unfortunately, my natural beauty was covered up by hair dye. Alas. ! "
Ethan looked at Leo, who was obviously smaller in the photo, and commented sincerely, "You looked very good back then."
His skin is very white, his eyes are focused, his smile is particularly bright, and he has an air of youthfulness.
"That's right, at that time, I was the popular type of young wolfdog, but now," he sighed twice, "I am an older single empty-nest young man. My agent is worried that I will lose my job one day. He is so worried that his hair has fallen out."
"Then I am the same, an older, single, empty-nest man." Ethan picked up a piece of scrambled eggs. It was a bit salty, but he had a rare appetite and felt it tasted good even when eating white rice.
After thinking for a while, he put down his chopsticks and said in a serious tone, "However, I think you are pretty good now."
"I think so too!" Leo nodded a few times in agreement and praised sincerely, "You are also very good, you are good-looking and your acting skills are particularly good!"
After saying that, Leo bit his chopsticks and laughed - it seemed that he had achieved the achievement of "mutual commercial praise" so naturally?
In the evening, Ethan was reading the script in the bedroom. The phone screen lit up and he answered the call, "Liang Qiu?"
"Mr. Qi," Liang Qiu's voice was usually respectful, "Are you still used to living here? If not, I can contact the crew to negotiate for a better environment."
"No, it's a good stay." Ethan refused without thinking.
Liang Qiu was a little surprised. He had gone to see the place where Ethan lived in advance with Leo's agent Aaron. It was clean, but it was an old building and didn't even have an elevator. It was not "very good" at all.
As if he knew Liang Qiu's doubts, Ethan explained, "He's a very nice person."
Liang Qiu understood immediately - the place he lived in was not good, but the people he lived with were very good. As soon as he started to review Leo's information in his mind, he heard Ethan continue to say, "He is very interesting."
interesting? Liangqiu was stunned. He had followed Ethan for two years. This was simply the highest praise he had ever heard from Ethan! I was so surprised that I didn't know how to answer the call for a moment.
After waiting for a while, there was still no sound from the phone, so Ethan said "goodbye" before hanging up. Rubbing the screen with his fingers, he lowered his eyes and thought for half a minute. He closed the script and downloaded a software.
I waited patiently for the installation, entered my login password, typed the three words "Leo" in the search box, and finally clicked on Leo's Weibo homepage.
He recognized it immediately. The top post was a photo of the tomato scrambled eggs and tomato egg soup he had for lunch, and Leo's caption, "Isn't it amazing? I want to be proud for 50 days!"
Ethan clicked and forwarded it unskillfully, thought about it, and then commented, "It's amazing."
When he turned off his phone, his Weibo followers had changed from 0 to 1.
Ethan fell asleep, but the others exploded.
Aaron: Leo didn’t immediately contact each other? No, no, I need to call and ask!
Liang Qiu: Mr. Qi still remembers the Weibo login password? No, don’t you never post on Weibo? Something doesn't seem right about this situation?
Fans: Ethan and Leo! ? I...we need to slow down! !
