Ryan and Ervin turned around and forgot what happened the day before. Their lives were too exciting and they had seen many people. The little troubles of the little people seemed insignificant to them, but other people's lives were not so calm.
Let's not talk about Sheng Ziyun's resentment. As for Master Lu, he booked a box the next day to listen to Ervin's play. After that, he had to attend every show, and he didn't listen to the previous shows, just to wait for Ervin. If Ervin sang the finale, Master Lu would get up after he finished singing, and he didn't want to listen to the main show; if Ervin sat in the Wenwuchang and played the huqin, Master Lu would wait until he finished the show. Later, he was instructed to follow the steps of the opera industry to support actors, sending flower baskets, adding colorful headlines, setting up banquets for dinner, paying reporters to write many articles praising Ervin in the newspaper, and even trying to learn to sing. Although Ryan was very flattering to Master Lu, it was completely out of flattery to his father and family background. As for this person, Ryan regarded him as the same type as Sheng Ziyun------a stinky boy with hair that had not grown up yet. Ervin simply gained another amateur artist of status. One more was not too much, and one less was not too little. He did not take it to heart at all.
That day, Ryan was waiting for Ervin to finish his performance in the backstage of a small theater near the overpass. The backstage of the theater was not as spacious as the Qingfeng Theater, where a long sofa could be placed. Here, a few camphorwood opera boxes were full. Ryan was bored and irritated while waiting, so he sat on a big box and smoked a cigarette. This should not be allowed, but no one dared to say anything to him. He and Ervin were close and always in pairs. In Shuiyun Building, the actors already regarded him as the boss's wife. After a while, Ervin came off the stage panting, and his sweat soaked the collar of his coat. Master Lu followed behind him, chattering non-stop. Master Lu can now express some insights on the play, and he knows the terms of their theater world, which is much better than Ryan. Ryan has been with Ervin for several years, but he still has no interest in the play. Mr. Lu knew how to please Ervin, who was annoyed and sighed. He thought that Sheng Ziyun would not come for a while, but who would have thought that he would be replaced by someone even more noisy than Sheng Ziyun, wandering around with a half-bucket of water, splashing water all over people. It would be so quiet when he could knock him to the ground with one punch.
When Master Lu saw Ervin frowning and not saying a word, he seemed to be full of worries. He thought that even this was very attractive, so he pestered him to remove his makeup, and was reluctant to leave. Before he left, Ervin complained in public: "Oh! It's so annoying! So annoying!" While picking velvet flowers in front of the mirror, he turned back and said to Ryan: "Second Master, play with me!"
Ryan was ignored for a long time. Mr. Lu only knew that Ryan had invested in two theaters and had a cooperative relationship with Ervin, so he did not regard him as a rival in love. Ryan sat on the opera box and watched Mr. Lu use all his knowledge to please Ervin. He found it very funny. He didn't know why they all loved to sit and talk about opera with Ervin, as if to get close to Ervin and attract Ervin's attention, and opera was the only way. However, what resounding insights can a Peking Opera enthusiast who changed his career halfway say? This set of moves was almost in vain, and it only made experts laugh. With Ervin's opera attainments, does he still need to rely on the guidance of amateurs? He used to talk with Ervin every night, and it was also about the opera and the person. He was purely interested in Ervin as a person, and talked about the story of Ervin as a person.
