Chapter 12

Listen to play... listen to play... listen to play...

When she went home and lay on the bed at night, Ke Jiao's mind was still full of these four characters, which were constantly scrolling and playing.

The scene at that time is still fresh in her memory. Xie Xiuyi just leaned against the sofa, telling her with a half-smile, with Rui You's ambiguous eyes and all the big gods in the circle listening. I made a demo of her favorite song and sent it to her to listen to alone.

Moreover, there seemed to be a slight doting tone in his words, it must be her illusion, right...?
Anyway, at that time, as soon as she finished collecting the songs, she immediately grabbed her bag and left his house as if fleeing.

It would be fine if he sang this song, but now he is not only Xie Xiuyi, but also the two-dimensional life she has liked for so long.

Xie Xiuyi?Or Djay?

Now she really doesn't know which one she should treat him as, so that she can slightly reduce the turbulent emotions in her heart.

Just like what Xiyuan said, she also knows very well that since he met him until he revealed his true identity, he has given her all the protection and special treatment that no one has ever seen before.

This made her very happy, touched, excited, heart-beating, and terrified.

It's not like she won't think about those things that go deeper.

But really dare not think about it.

Not long after such extremely entangled days, an event that was expected but happened too quickly.

The movie "Black and White Mask" with the theme song of the same name sung by Xie Xiuyi has finally been officially released nationwide.

Directed by a big-name domestic director who won the Best Director Award at the World Film Festival, and starring domestic first-line acting stars, this film tells the life of a songstress in the Republic of China.

The movie screen is well-produced and the plot is ups and downs. On the ninth day of its release, the box office broke through 2 million yuan without any suspense, becoming the box office champion of the first year.

While the box office was booming, the movie theme song that amazed countless people to tears also made the singer Xie Xiuyi famous.

The theme song is a Chinese-style song, and it also has the unique charm of the Republic of China period. Ke Jiao listened to the OST version on the Internet and was once again shocked by Xie Xiuyi's singing skills.

He sang all the emotions of the singer in the movie very vividly with the tone of the words and the tone of the sentence.

Before the movie was released, no one knew about this newly signed singer who didn't even have a single song.

And after this movie, his name has become a topic that everyone talks about.

Become famous overnight.

He perfectly interpreted these four words with his amazing singing skills and talent.

Afterwards, his brief appearance at the movie box office celebration banquet pushed the enthusiasm to a new climax.

Simple clothes, but it can't hide his appearance and aura that are more irresistible than the first-line male artists present.

Even the director favored him, and made such an astonishing evaluation of him in front of all the stars and media present.

"Before the producer told me that Xie Xiuyi would sing the theme song of the movie, I still had some doubts about this unknown singer, but when I heard his two lines of singing, I knew that the next generation in the Chinese music scene A star is about to be born."

"Let's wait and see if I'm exaggerating. In this young man's body, there is a power that can burn everything."

What the director said was also unanimously approved by the film's leading actors, but Xie Xiuyi, who was the central figure in the topic, did not say a word other than a self-introduction and "thank you" throughout the whole process.

When Ke Jiao sat in front of the TV at home and watched the clips broadcast in the entertainment news, he felt uneasy for a long time.

Although she knew from a long time ago that with his strength, he would definitely be popular, but what she didn't expect was that he would break the routine process of newcomers in the entertainment industry with such amazing speed and strength.

She understands that his silence is due to his low-key and humble personality, but in the eyes of others, this kind of indifferent and distant attitude shown by a newcomer in the entertainment industry has instead become a catalyst for him to become more and more popular.

In short, he has uncontrollably become a snow peak that has risen from the flat ground of the entertainment industry.

Ke Jiao was naturally happy for him from the bottom of his heart.

But also faintly, with a trace of worry.

For about a week, Ke Jiao didn't see him at home again like when he was busy making the theme song.

On the contrary, Rui You would come from the next door to eat the meals she cooked on time every day, and she was very supportive.

"Baby spinach,"

The two sat facing each other, Rui You took a bite of his meal and raised his head, "Has Xie Xiuyi contacted you recently?"

"Yes, yes," Ke Jiao stopped his chopsticks, "he will tell me what he is busy with every day, but not much."

"Really?" Rui You looked surprised, "Did you know that he has always hated texting with people?"

"Really?" She was stunned for a moment, thinking that Xie Xiuyi seemed to have been exchanging text messages with her since they met.

"I hate sending text messages, and I hate making phone calls even more. When I want to find someone, I usually take a simple and rude attitude and smash the door of his house until he comes out." Rui You rolled his eyes, "It can make him send Sending a text message is simply as difficult as reaching the sky."

When Ke Jiao heard this, her heart suddenly became hot.

Even if he was really busy outside for a while, no matter how late it was every day, he would still simply say goodnight to her.

Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly heard the sound of ringing the doorbell.

"Could it be that Xie Xiuyi came back?" Rui You raised his head from the meal, and then suddenly picked up a large piece of meat with chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth, "No, I have to eat quickly! In case he will have another meeting later I grab it!"

Ke Jiao gave a "puchi" laugh, went to the entrance to open the door, but when she opened the door, it was Zeng Qian standing outside.

"Spinach, is Xie Xiuyi at home?" Zeng Qian strode in, her expression seemed anxious, and there was sweat on her forehead.

"What's wrong?" She frowned, "He's not at home."

Zeng Qian was probably really anxious, without even taking off her shoes, she rushed into the room to look around, then turned to Ke Jiao, "Then do you know where he is now?"

"I don't know," Ke Jiao shook his head, then asked Rui You, "Rui You, do you know?"

Rui You shrugged, "Shouldn't he be cooperating with publicity outside now?"

"If it's like this, it's too late for me to be happy." Zeng Qian sighed heavily, raising her hand to support her forehead, "I originally agreed with him this morning to pick him up at eight o'clock and go to the movie city in the city to promote the movie. Knowing that he didn’t show up until after ten o’clock, I didn’t answer my phone calls, I didn’t reply to my text messages, I thought he had already gone to the film city, and I rushed over to see that he wasn’t there, the publicity meeting had already started at that time, I can only apologize to the organizer, saying that he couldn’t come due to some accidents, and he also brought other artists to the stage.”

After finishing speaking in one breath, Zeng Qian's face became even uglier, "The fans waiting for him at the scene were all very sad, they gathered at the entrance of the movie theater and refused to leave, and when I got back to the company after finishing the business there, I was scolded by the boss After that, he still didn't call me back."

"Even if he was reluctant in the past week, at least he didn't let the pigeons go missing temporarily. I was really exhausted by this guy's willfulness..."

Ke Jiao gradually became worried when he heard this, and he couldn't help but took out his mobile phone, "Then I'll try to send him a text message."

"That's right," Rui You said from the side, "Tell Spinach to send him a text message, even if he doesn't reply to other people's, he should reply to Spinach's."

"It's also..." Zeng Qian's eyes flashed, and she held onto Ke Jiao's arm tightly, "Spinach, it's up to you, only you can subdue Young Master Xie, help me find him quickly, he still has a lot of them tomorrow Notice, if he doesn't show up, the boss will cut off my head!"

After Ke Jiao finished sending the text message, she put her phone on the table, and the three of them waited together in the room for a while, but Xie Xiuyi didn't reply to her text message either.

"I'm wondering if he's somewhere near home?" Ke Jiao's heart was getting more and more serious, biting his lip, and whispered, "He's been so busy recently, if his stomach trouble happens again and he faints somewhere..."

Although Rui You said that Xie Xiuyi ate well after returning home recently, his irregular eating time may still cause his old stomach disease that was spoiled by instant noodles to recur.

"It's possible," Rui You rubbed his chin, put down the chopsticks, and put on his coat, "Then let's go and look around separately, just in case there's anything wrong."

"Okay," Zeng Qian also walked decisively to the entrance, "I'll drive around to look around, you guys walk, and call anyone who finds it immediately."

The originally sunny afternoon was clouded by Xie Xiuyi's sudden disappearance. Ke Jiao held the phone tightly in one hand, and while looking at one shop after another in the nearby snack street, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter.

Parks, audio stores, bookstores, restaurants... She searched thoroughly for all the places where he might appear near his home.

I have been looking for the sun to set since noon, but I still... can't find him.

When she got to the side of the road, she couldn't help picking up her mobile phone and dialing directly.

After connecting, I unexpectedly heard a cold mechanical female voice, "Sorry, the phone you dialed has been turned off."

It turned off.

Her heart felt like it was hit hard.

I called Zeng Qian and Rui You separately, and learned that they couldn't find it either. Ke Jiao was in a daze, and walked downstairs to her own house.

At this time, the sky was already dark, and the lights in the community were turned on. She walked into her building dejectedly, wanting to go home and drink some water to rest for a while before going downstairs to continue searching.

When the elevator door opened, she lowered her head and took out the key from her pocket. When she looked up, she stopped abruptly.

I saw a very familiar figure squatting on the steps in front of her house. The man was wearing a hat and a mask on his face. At this moment, he leaned his head on his arm, looking like he was sleeping. caught.

...he was right.

Although she was a little frightened at first glance, she was so familiar with this man that even if she couldn't see his face clearly, she knew who he was.

It's really helpless, I ran all over half of the district, and the person I was looking for was actually right in front of her house...

In other words, why did he come to her door?
Ke Jiao sighed, and walked towards him lightly. When she got in front of him, she raised her hand and patted his shoulder.

Who knows, the next second, the person who was still quietly as if asleep suddenly stretched out his arms and pulled her closer to him.

Under the light of only the corridor lights, Xie Xiuyi only showed those beautiful black gemstone eyes, looked at her from bottom to top, and whispered a word from the mask, "Sleepy."

From the moment Ke Jiao was pulled over by him, her heart had already been in her throat, and now she froze in place, so stupid that she couldn't even utter a word.

"Let me rely on it for a while."

In the next second, he naturally pulled her closer, encircled her with his arms, and gently rested his head on her belly, "I've been waiting for you for a long time."

The sound of Xie Xiuyi's even breathing lingered around her lower abdomen, it was warm, but with a hint of coldness and dampness in the air.

As a southern city, T City's winter has always been like this, cold and humid, but colder than the northern cold.

But even so, it couldn't cover up the steaming heat all over her body.

Ke Jiao feels like a bun steaming in a steamer now...

Who can tell her that this giant baby with facial paralysis who is hugging her and refuses to let go is acting like a baby...

I'm not a pillow... She burst into tears in her heart, my lord, if you act like a baby again, I'll get a nosebleed. Really, you can't challenge my limit over and over again just because I'm your diehard fan...

"That..." Seeing that he seemed to really intend to lean on her and not let go, after a stalemate for a while, she finally couldn't help but speak first, "Why don't you go in and talk? It's cold outside..."

After finishing speaking, she wished she could bite off her tongue. She obviously wanted him to let go of what she came into the room to talk about!
"En," Xie Xiuyi uttered from his nasal cavity, but remained motionless.

Ke Jiao blushed, maintained this posture, opened the door with the key, and coughed, "...I can't go in."

After hearing this, he slightly hooked the corners of his mouth at an angle she couldn't see, then slowly let go of his hand, and stood up from the steps.

After entering the house, Ke Jiao went to the kitchen to help him pour a glass of water, and when he came out with the glass, he saw him taking off his hat and mask and throwing them on the coffee table, and sat down on the sofa with tired eyes.

"Tired?" She handed him the water glass.

"Well," he took a few sips of water and put the glass back on the table.

"Headache? Stomach pain?" She didn't know why, but as soon as she saw him, she automatically entered the mode of thinking, "Have you eaten yet?"

"There's nothing wrong with your body." He raised his hand and rubbed his temples, frowning slightly, but he still answered her question well, "Just wake up in the morning and eat something casually."

"Then I'll make you something to eat now." She stood up immediately, "There are still some ham and eggs in the refrigerator, do you want fried rice or noodles?"

He raised his eyebrows, his expression relaxed a little, "fried rice."

Ke Jiao quickly walked towards the kitchen, but after two steps, she still couldn't help but stop, and turned her back to him and said, "At noon, Zeng Qian came to your house to look for you, but she couldn't find you, she said... You didn't go to the movie promotion meeting in the morning."

"This afternoon, Zeng Qianruiyou and I have been looking for you for a long time, and your phone is still turned off. We are all worried that something happened to you."

After a moment of silence, he said calmly, "My phone is out of battery."

"Well," she turned on the kitchen light, "then I'll text them now and tell them you're okay."

Even though she had reached this point, she still didn't dare to ask what she most wanted to ask him.

Why doesn't he go to the movie promotion meeting in the morning?And why didn't he explain a word, and deliberately pretended to be missing to prevent Zeng Qian from finding him?Also, why did he appear at her door and wait for her?
When she finished cooking and brought the meal to the table, she was still thinking about these questions, and although Zeng Qian and the others were very angry after reading her text message, they still understood his maverick temper In the end, he only said that he hoped that he would continue to cooperate with the publicity tomorrow so that he would not disappear again, and asked her to comfort him.

To appease him?

In fact, she didn't even know if she had the ability, after all, she still didn't dare to ask more questions.

"Do you have anything to do tonight?"

After eating for a while, Xie Xiuyi suddenly spoke abruptly.

"Ah?...It's okay." She raised her head, "What's wrong?"

He didn't speak, just lowered his eyes, took out two small pieces of paper from his pocket and handed them to her, and continued to eat as if nothing had happened.

Ke Jiao took the two small pieces of paper, looked down, and found that they were the movie tickets for "Black and White Mask" at the zero hour show.

"Do you want me to go to the movies with you?" She asked cautiously holding the movie ticket.

"Yeah." He said unhurriedly, "I bought the zero-point market, and there are few people."

Looking at his slightly soft face under the light, she felt as if her heart was gently wrapped by clouds.

In fact, when the movie was first released, she always wanted to go to the cinema to watch it, but then she always felt a little lonely going alone, and she was always entangled in when she could see the perfect combination of his singing voice and the movie with her own eyes.

"Want to go?" Seeing that she hadn't spoken, he put down his spoon and looked at her seriously.

Ke Jiao nodded in a panic, but felt that her face should have turned red immediately.

What a shame, this trend of becoming more and more nympho has really brought the enthusiasm for Djay in Two-dimensional into reality...

"That's good." Xie Xiuyi looked at her, and raised the corners of his lips calmly.

Although Ke Jiao has always been relatively independent since she was a child, and her parents have always adopted a free-ranging attitude towards her and no gate control, she has never gone to the cinema to watch a movie at midnight.

One is because of being home, the other is because of laziness, and the third is because she is a little afraid of the dark.

She never goes out in the middle of the night, but today is different. Today she has a 1 meter bodyguard by her side.

However, with this bodyguard following her, why did she become more and more nervous?
Walking into the cinema and sitting down, she held the popcorn that Xie Xiuyi had just bought in her hand, and silently stuffed one into her mouth.

Amitabha, don't think too much, don't think too much...

At this point in time, there was really no one else in the cinema, except for her, there were only two high school girls sitting two rows in front of her, and when Xie Xiuyi, who went to the bathroom, came back, there were only four of them.

"Do you want some popcorn?" Feeling him sitting next to her, she turned her head and handed him the bucket of popcorn in her hand.

Xie Xiuyi crossed his legs, glanced at her, and remained silent.

Ke Jiao became a little smarter, and now she silently picked up a pill.

Sure enough, in the next second, someone brought his mouth closer and bit the popcorn with her hand.

While Ke Jiao was spontaneously combusting, she had already calmed down.

As if... I was feeding a bear child, um...

I'm sorry, Lord Benming, if I don't comfort myself so much, I will really think about it...

The two high school girls in front probably heard their voices, so they turned their heads to look at them naturally at this moment, looked at them for a while, then turned their heads enviously to whisper to each other.

"That..." Ke Jiao fed him popcorn with shaking hands, and whispered, "Is it okay if they see it?"

Although the two girls didn't necessarily know him, she was always worried that he might be recognized.

Unlike before, he is now a public figure, and according to this trend, he will only become more well-known. Although she is not in the show business circle, she is very clear about what scandals will bring to a fledgling newcomer adverse effects.

"Or, should I sit farther away from you?" She withdrew her hand.

"No need," Xie Xiuyi turned his head to look at her, with a hint of coldness in his tone, "Just sit beside me and don't move."

As soon as his words fell, the lights of the cinema dimmed.

Screening of "Black and White Mask" officially begins.

Ke Jiao didn't speak, just sat upright obediently, and began to watch the movie without looking sideways.

Halfway through, even an otaku fan like her can't help but sigh, the rhythm of this domestic film is surprisingly well controlled.

Domestic films have always been criticized for their novelty-seeking plot and poor rhythm control. At the end, the audience is still in the fog and do not know what the film is about, but this film has completely broken through this curse.

She was so engrossed in watching that she almost forgot that Xie Xiuyi was sitting next to her. Until the climax of the movie, when the theme song sung by Xie Xiuyi appeared, she saw the singer's favorite life die in front of her. She couldn't help but feel Eye sockets are wet.

His voice is like tailor-made for this movie.

Maybe as a writer, she can always understand the emotions in a story more thoroughly than others, so she is more likely to be emotional.

Just as she was about to raise her hand to wipe her blurred eye sockets, she felt a warm hand gently stroking her hair.

The popcorn bucket in his hand was immediately removed, and a pack of tissues was immediately stuffed into his hand.

She turned her head sideways and saw Xie Xiuyi looking at her, those black eyes were especially bright in the darkness.

At this moment, she suddenly understood why he chose to accept the theme song of this movie among many invitations.

Only a musical genius like him can sing the true soul of this movie.

She was suddenly very proud of him.

The two-hour movie ended at two o'clock in the morning.

Ke Jiao didn't feel sleepy at all. After the two girls in front left the scene, she was still watching the cast and credits at the end of the movie attentively.

"I didn't go to the film promotional meeting because I was doubting whether it was really the right decision for me to step into the film industry." In the quiet and deserted movie theater, she suddenly heard Xie Xiuyi say in her ear, "At first I and You said that the original intention of my willingness to step into the entertainment industry was just to use a wider platform to spread good music, but I don’t like all the butterfly effects that follow after showing my face in this way.”

She was stunned at first, and thought for a while before turning her head to look at him.

What he was referring to should be the media and fans who crazily pursued him because of his appearance, personality and singing skills, as well as the overwhelming social remarks.

"This morning, I wanted to go downstairs to buy breakfast, but I forgot to wear a mask and a hat, and was blocked by fans in the eating place for half an hour before I could get out." His tone was light and cold, "That's when I realized that now I have I can't go back to my old life anymore, and that annoys me, so I skipped the promotional meeting, stayed in a nearby hotel for the afternoon, and then went to your house to wait for you."

Although he is a mature and measured man most of the time, she understands that there is still a willful temper like a child in his heart.

And she seems to have been lucky enough to see the softness of this part the most times.

"I think you understand all the truths," Ke Jiao looked at his slightly frowning brows, "These attached conditions have followed you from the moment you stepped into this circle, and you may lose more from now on. Freedom and accepting more comments from all directions, this is what you will inevitably face as a public figure, and it is also more intense than what you encountered in Two-dimensional.”

"But you should think that if you don't pick up the theme song of this movie, everyone will not be able to hear this song that makes the whole movie more three-dimensional and sublimated. I have read Douban comments before, and many The audience even came to watch this movie because of your song, this is the power you can bring to everyone as a singer, if it weren't for you, there would be no such phenomenon."

"So, even if it throws your life out of balance, you still have to overcome this conflict. This platform is only available in the entertainment industry. Only when you stand here can you realize your original intention."

Out of selfishness, in fact, she also thought that she didn't want him to be so famous, not to mention that after learning that he was Djay, this thought appeared in her heart more times.

However, she can't be so selfish, as Zeng Qian said, he was born for the Chinese music scene.

After she finished saying these words, he was silent for a long time, and when she even thought he was angry, he finally spoke again.

"I will continue to go to the announcement tomorrow."

It was cold, and there seemed to be a hint of grievance and dissatisfaction, which made people feel...indescribably cute and soft-hearted.

"I will cook a lot of delicious food for you and keep it in your microwave oven." She winked at him and comforted him in a friendly voice, "A lot of meat will recharge your energy."

Xie Xiuyi raised his eyes to look at her, and before she could react, he suddenly approached with lightning speed and lightly touched her cheek.

...The soft and cold touch seemed to come from his lips.

That, was she kissed just now? ...

When her thinking had completely stagnated, someone's mouth curled up into an incomparably playful smile, and he raised two fingers in a salute gesture,

"Charging is complete."
