Chapter 14 Bad luck
Day Mian went to look for Zhang Shuang, who was playing the second female role, but Zhang Shuang glanced at Shi Huang, and said in a low voice, "Senior Zhou, why don't you line up with Senior Shi first, my role with you is not that important."

Zhou Mian raised her eyelids and looked at her quietly for a moment with her crescent eyes: "I have some ideas about the scene with you. After rehearsing it, I may have to make some modifications. We can discuss it in advance. Professor Lang will come later and we can Discuss it directly with him.”

Professor Lang is the author of this play and a highly respected professor of the Faculty of Arts.Because this play has not been officially performed, Professor Lang is very concerned about the rehearsal of this play.

Zhang Shuang glanced at Shi Huang again, and carefully suggested: "But I think the scene between us is quite good, there is nothing to modify."

Her small round face flushed a little anxiously, and she was a little embarrassed to watch the day sleep.

Day sleep has never been difficult for others, she turned the script back: "Okay, then I will find the male lead first."

Zhang Shuang breathed a sigh of relief, but worried: "Senior sister, your voice is a little hoarse, you don't need to be as formal as you are in the theater when you read the lines, as long as we can hear each other."

Day Mian said gently: "Okay."

She took a step forward, and Zhang Shuang finally felt relieved when he saw Zhou Mian walking towards Shi Wang.

When Zhou Mian walked up to Shi Wang, Shi Wang suddenly said: "Why didn't you line up with me just now?"

His tone was very calm, as if he was asking casually, and he was not looking at her. He was still writing with a pen in his hand, but he spoke, which meant that it was not unintentional.

However, when he said these words, he suddenly awakened the long-awaited memory of day sleep.

She froze in place for a moment.

In high school, she asked him something similar, asking him if he could schedule the play with her first next week.

Because she had a lot of scenes with Shi Wang, but Shi Wang never took the initiative to rehearse with her, but rehearsed scenes with others.

Seeing that the performance was approaching, she was afraid that if the performance would fail, others would think of him, so she nervously made suggestions to him, and only hoped that he would agree.

How did he answer then?
He happened to be wearing a white shirt that day, and he was dressed in the wind and the moon, with his back facing the glaring sun, but he looked down at her, and his tone was cold to the bone: "Why, your self-indulgence is now inflated to the point where I can't bear it." come to answer?"

She couldn't believe it for a moment.

If it was normal, she would certainly not be so surprised.

But that day, she had just searched through all the trash cans and found his grandma's belongings for him.

She found the brooch he'd been looking for so desperately but couldn't find.

In order to find the brooch, her arms were scratched and her new clothes were stained, but she was full of expectation and joy, hoping that he would be happy.

She had no intention of asking him to repay her with any credit, and she didn't even mention her contribution.

I just asked him nervously if I could rehearse the play together, and he humiliated me back.

Even though more than three years have passed, Zhou Mian still feels suffocated when recalling that moment.

I also felt that the humble girl at that time was very pitiful, and fell in love with such a rubbish with gold and jade.

The rehearsal room was noisy, which brought Tian Mian back to his senses, and met Shang Shi's warm and focused eyes on her.

In the next second, her voice sounded indifferently: "Shi Wang, there are so many people here, do I have to queue first with you every time?"

The noise around her seemed to be silent in Shi Wang's ears. There was no other noise, only her response.

Gently, rhetorical words express a statement of refusal.

Shi Wang didn't expect her to respond like this, but, even if she didn't know if she said it casually, or if she was going to express this meaning, Shi Wang's heart sank.

Her eyes were like a deep pool, and she said in a dead silence, "That's a waste of my time."

Shi Wang looked at her with a gloomy mood, but her beautiful face was just plain, as if the words she just said were casual.

Day Mian lowered his head and turned the pages: "You probably don't know that every time I rehearse with you, I even have to do a long time of mental preparation."

Her hatred just gushed out lightly and shallowly.

But in Shi Wang's ears, these words have no beginning and no end. It can be understood that she is very unhappy with him, but it can also be understood that she will be nervous when they play with him.

He reacted for a moment, and subconsciously felt that she might be talking about the former, but he couldn't find the reason for their unhappiness.

His thin lips parted slightly, and he seemed to comfort him calmly: "Next time, you can be less nervous. We are partners and we will work together for a long time."

He was almost looking for a space for himself to breathe, expecting what she meant.

Day Mian twitched the corners of his lips mockingly, as if perfunctory, but he didn't answer, which made his heart flutter.

She turned over a page of the script and began to read the lines in the script directly: "I love you has nothing to do with anyone, but you are the one who caused me to hate you because of love. You don't accept my love. I am scornful."

What she got right wasn't even the words of the first scene, but the beginning of the eighth scene. Shi Wan didn't know why she directly responded to the lines of the scene, but he still started from here obediently.

Thinking about it, she needed to rehearse this scene even more, so she started from here.

After a while, a short, fat man with half-white hair walked into the rehearsal room.

It happened that Day Mian and Shi Wang were playing against each other, so the man stood in the corner and watched for a while, and then came out after they had finished their rehearsal.

As soon as he came out, Day Mian saw him and immediately respected him, "Professor Lang."

When Shi Wang turned his head, he also saw Professor Lang who had a good impression of him from the very beginning and chose him straight away.

But at this moment, Professor Lang's expression did not seem to be appreciative, and he was a little unpredictable: "Shi Wang, have you always rehearsed like this before?"

Shi Wang's lips fluctuated: "I'm sorry, teacher, is there any problem with my performance?"

The eyes of the people around seemed to drift over.

Professor Lang put his hands behind his back, and his honest and steady voice sounded: "Actually, your appearance is very suitable for this role, but is your attitude a bit too casual? You were wearing earphones during the rehearsal. No wonder you couldn't find your position during the rehearsal."

In an instant, several people around, even Day Mian, all looked at Shi Huang's ears.

But only Tianmian knew that what Professor Lang was talking about was Shihuang's hearing aid.

Everyone looked at his right ear.

Lu Yuan hurriedly smoothed things over: "No teacher, Shi Wan has been rehearsing very seriously, this is the first time like this, and I probably forgot to pick it."

After speaking, he quickly looked at Shi Huang, winked and said, "Shi Huang, take it off."

Shi Wang's hand seemed to be frozen, and he didn't reach out to pick it off.

Hearing aids and earphones look the same on the outside, but the hearing aid has a long part embedded in the ear canal. As long as you take it off, you can tell that it is not an earphone.

He had no doubt that as long as he took it off, others would notice the difference in this earphone, and it was only a matter of time before the problem of the right ear was exposed.

At this moment, other people's eyes are all secondary, and he cares about making a fool of himself in front of Dayan, who already knows about his ear problem.

But in the eyes of the teacher who ran into him on the spot, the excuse he made on such a long way was undoubtedly a cover-up.

Professor Lang said softly: "Adonis, do you think you respect your opponent in this way? Are you also so casual when facing Venus?"

The teacher's attitude is kind, but the situation is developing in the direction he insists on.

Day Mian stood behind him at a distance of one body, quietly watching Shi Huang standing in the midst of everyone's words, his back was stiff.

Day Mian slightly clenched the script in his hand, but suppressed the idea of ​​helping him.

Everyone has their own luck, he has never helped her once, why should she come forward, but she seems as self-indulgent as before.

Kindness should also be used towards those who deserve it.

If her kindness is abused again, it will make her feel worthless. Knowing that the result will repeat the same mistakes, she just looks pitifully stupid.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Shuang, who played the second female role, hurried through the crowd and explained: "Teacher, it didn't affect the rehearsal that senior Shi wore earphones, and he only wore one."

Professor Lang was even more disappointed: "Look, your partners are still hiding it for you."

Zhang Shuang was a little anxious: "Teacher, no."

Seeing that the misfortune was diverting to the girl who excused Shi Wan, Shi Wan didn't want to owe anyone else anything, so just as he was about to speak, another hoarse voice interrupted his thoughts: "Professor, it's my problem. "

When Shi Wang heard that familiar voice, he subconsciously turned his head to look at Day Mian, and his heart beat uncontrollably by mistake.

She didn't look at him, her cold face didn't show much expression, but there was some smile in her eyes. Her crimson lips opened and closed, and she spoke in a slightly hoarse voice: "I practiced my lines last night and made my voice hoarse. I couldn't say my lines loudly, so I asked Shi Wang to wear noise-canceling headphones and rehearse with me, ignoring the impact of the sound. Shi Wang didn't say anything just now because he didn't want me to be blamed."

Her voice is indeed hoarse, and her credibility is not low. Professor Lang thinks it is reasonable.

Moreover, Venus has a charming voice in the script, so she is a bit of a drama now.

Professor Lang suddenly realized: "Is that so?"

Zhou Mian raised his eyes and glanced at Shi Huang, but said words against his will: "Yes."

Shi Huang's heart beat faster and faster, and there was an inexplicable joy of regaining what was lost.

Everyone also reacted, so it was so.

Zhang Shuang breathed a sigh of relief.

On the contrary, Professor Lang felt a little happy. The mutual understanding between the partners, not to mention the male and female protagonists who love each other deeply, means that this script will go smoothly: "Sorry, teacher is blind and subjective, and you can understand each other and help each other. Thinking well, the teacher believes that you can work together well."

Zhou Mian didn't want to mention this again, so he changed the subject and said, "Teacher, when I was familiar with the script, I had an immature idea. Can I discuss it with you?"

Professor Lang is of course happy: "Yes."

Day Mian said directly: "I think the role of the second female lead is unreasonable."

Everyone around her stopped immediately and looked at her.

Shi Wang also looked at her, listening to her carefully, wanting to know her thoughts.

Professor Lang was puzzled: "Then what do you think is the problem?"

Day Mian stood in the eyes of everyone who was either surprised or disbelieving, and said frankly: "This role makes me feel empathetic about being uglinessed. What the second female does for love is not to strive for love, but to choose to compete with the heroine. , not hesitate to frame her for this, and lose herself for the sake of love, as if love is more important than everything else, but she is the goddess of death, isn't there something wrong with this composition?"

Shi Wang didn't think about it from this angle. Thinking about it this way, there are indeed some problems with the script.

Professor Lang also listened patiently. After all, this edition is still the first draft, and he has not corrected it, so it is inevitable that there will be deficiencies.

Professor Lang said seriously: "Compete at all costs for love, even giving up yourself. This method is often used in dramas to show the intensity of love. Doesn't this make love more passionate?"

Day Mian did not waver: "True good love will never put a person in a desperate situation. It is not the heroine who should come forward to solve the female third party. It should be the high-spirited Adonis described in the script. I personally think that, If Adonis is really worthy of the Goddess of Death and the Goddess of Beauty, there will be no such plots, and he will definitely come forward to protect the heroine."

Shi Wang listened to her speech, but felt that he understood her a little bit.

If it is a worthy person, that person should come forward to solve the female third party, she thought so.

Professor Lang was thoughtful, and continued: "But the two goddesses love Adonis deeply, so there must be a fight?"

Everyone turned their attention to Day Mian again, but Day Mian did not flinch: "There can be fights, but it's not about framing and taking credit. There are excellent women who don't care about face for the male lead. From a male perspective, it's really fun, but This is a script in which the heroine is female, and the stronger the enemy, the stronger the heroine, and belittling the opponent is also belittling the heroine."

Professor Lang nodded frequently: "How did you come up with this idea?"

Day Mian recalled the past, there was a moment of waves surging in the bottom of my heart, but the sadness was only at that moment.

She calmly said, "I acted in a drama when I was in high school, and there was such a character. I felt sorry for her at that time. She was clearly pursuing love frankly, but the author deliberately sketched her as a character who loves unscrupulously." , in fact, portraying her as a strong and powerful character can also achieve the purpose of hindering the hero and heroine."

Professor Lang thought deeply.

As a man, he has never really thought about it from this angle. Some things are taken for granted, and of course there are reasons why it is only a first draft. He may find this problem after a long time, but it is far less sensitive than the actors who are immersed in it.

The old man smiled kindly and said, "Why don't you just talk about your point of view? With this ability to express yourself, you are from the Faculty of Arts, right?"

Day Mian nodded: "Yes, the Department of Journalism."

Professor Lang's eyes could not hide his appreciation: "The Department of Journalism, no wonder, has a keen eye for things and is very politically correct."

When everyone heard Professor Lang's praise, they were finally relieved and couldn't help admiring, their surprised eyes all fell on Day Mian.

Daysmian is not arrogant or arrogant: "My views are very shallow, and they may not be correct. Thank you teacher for willing to listen to my views."

Professor Lang smiled, and said: "I think it's very good, how about it, you don't arrange it first, and you can arrange it after the teacher brings the revised manuscript over in two days."

Everyone who performed in the play Venus quickly responded: "Okay!"

"Then we are waiting for your new script."

Shi looked at Day Mian thoughtfully.

Soon after, it was almost time for rehearsals.

Everyone scattered and packed their things to withdraw.

"Sister Zhou is really amazing, no wonder she is in the top 5.00% of the journalism department, and she can get the first-class scholarship."

"I didn't think there was any problem at first. After all, Professor Lang's writing style is beautiful. The whole article is full of ups and downs, wonderful and beautiful, but it seems that it is better to change it in this way."

Day Mian didn't listen to what the crowd said, but just lowered his head to pack his things, Shi Hua looked at her packing things, wanted to talk to her, but couldn't think of what to say to her for a while.

Inexplicably, there was a sense of urgency to say a few more words to her, but he was suppressing himself with reason.

Daysleep went straight away without stopping.

Shi Wang's cell phone rang, and he picked it up to answer, and Shi's mother's cautious voice sounded over there: "Your father bought you an apartment near the school before, and you are finally willing to go. If there is anything else, remember to call To mom, you know?"

Shi Wang looked at Zhou Mian's slender back and said distantly: "Thank you, don't worry too much, I'm just staying for a few days."

Tian Mian left the drama club and went straight home. When Shi Huang walked into this community, Tian Mian was still opening the courier cabinet to pick up the courier.

As soon as she raised her head, she saw Shi Huang's figure. She should have been shocked, but she didn't react. She just followed the usual route back home in the dark.

When she got home, she went into the kitchen and took out a small handful of salt and smashed the door, and then went in again.

After half an hour, when Zhu Jiang came, he asked curiously, "Mianmian, what are the grains on the ground by your door?"

Zi Mian's words are concise and concise: "Salt."

Zhu Jiang was puzzled: "Why sprinkle salt all over the place?"

Day Mian packed the clothes, folded the dried clothes one by one, and casually responded to her words: "Can there be any reason?"

She folded the last piece of clothing: "Go to the bad luck."
