32 “I’m your love, hate, desire, anger, and insanity”

 

Tang Ziyou walked over with the script and listened to Director Wang telling him the main points of the three scenes shot with Gu Jiuci today.

Gu Jiuci looked at him, carefully admiring his appearance today.

Director Wang was halfway through when he suddenly realized that Gu Jiuci’s sight wasn’t on himself or on the script in his hand. He wondered, “Xiao Gu, why are you staring at Xiao Tang?”

Gu Jiuci smiled, “He looks pretty today.”

“That is, the costumes of our play are especially tailor-made, which one doesn’t look good?”

Gu Jiuci nodded, “Go on.”

Director Wang began to talk about the play again.

After he finished talking about the play, Shan Qikun also came. Director Wang asked them to go to the play first and went to find Shan Qikun himself.

Tang Ziyou had already confronted Gu Jiuci last night, so he said, “I’m going to drink some water,” and left politely.

Gu Jiuci didn’t chase him and returned to his rest area, sitting in a chair to rest.

When Director Wang finished filming Shan Qikun and Xu Sijia’s scenes, he asked Tang Ziyou and Gu Jiuci to come over and film their rival scenes.

In this scene, Sheng Feiguang cooked the medicine and wanted to take care of Fu Yongsi, but found that Fu Yongsi had already drunk Yu Xiaoliu’s medicine.

He watched Fu Yongsi and Yu Xiaoliu talk intimately, heard Fu Yongsi say to Xiaoliu, “You are my most important existence.” He was unwilling to be jealous, thus enticing the demon to reappear, lure him, and laugh at him.

Tang Ziyou took the medicine bowl from the staff and stood not far from the window. After Director Wang said, “Action!”, he bowed his head and walked forward quickly.

However, when he was passing by the window, he heard Yu Xiaoliu’s voice. He listened to his footsteps and carefully looked in through the window. He saw that Yu Xiaoliu was feeding Fu Yongsi medicine and saying her concern.

Sheng Feiguang gripped the bowl silently and stood quietly.

Director Wang noticed the change in the expression on his face. After seeing Tang Ziyou’s eyes dimming, he signalled that Gu Jiuci could go on stage.

Gu Jiuci’s pace was very light and then Tang Ziyou heard it.

He didn’t get distracted to look after Gu Jiuci, but looked into the window sadly and unwillingly.

Gu Jiuci walked behind him there. After receiving a signal from Director Wang, he lowered his head to Tang Ziyou’s ear and whispered, “You are jealous.”

Tang Ziyou was startled and looked up at him.

For a moment, there was only one breath between the two.

“I’m not.” He said. He quickly turned around and walked back, but he heard the demon in his ear, “No? If you didn’t, how could I appear again?”

“I don’t know, I don’t want you to appear at all!” Sheng Feiguang said angrily.

“But you can’t control your heart.” The heart demon approached him, “You’re jealous, you’re unwilling, you’re angry, but you’re sad.”

He sighed, “Unfortunately, you’re really not the person Fu Yongsi cares about the most. What can I do?”

“It has nothing to do with you!”

“Shall I help you?” The heart demon laughed. His handsome face with a trace of the evil spirit, “Shall I help you take him back? Before only you two depended on each other to live, after that, I still let the two of you live on each other, okay?”

Sheng Feiguang’s heart moved, but for a moment he forgot to refute.

The heart demon smiled softly, with a gentle and tempting tone, “I can help you, Sheng Feiguang. I can make Yu Xiaoliu disappear and Fu Yongsi can come back to you again. As long as you want, you can have everything. Isn’t that good?”

Yeah, isn’t that good? Sheng Feiguang asked himself, isn’t that good? In this way, his master would still be his master. He would still care about himself most and would only belong to himself. Isn’t that good? Shouldn’t it be the case?

The heart demon felt the thoughts in his heart, smiling more and more gently.

Suddenly, Sheng Feiguang seemed to have broken free from his shackles and slammed the medicine bowl on his feet with a “bang”, and said sternly, “Go away!”

He ran forward hurriedly like a frightened bird, his back full of embarrassment.

The heart demon smiled and looked at him running away and laughed happily.

The shooting went very smoothly. The director was very satisfied with their performance, especially Tang Ziyou, who played a rivalry with Gu Jiuci for the first time. He didn’t make any mistakes. The cooperation was wonderful and full of tension.

“Xiao Tang, you’re good. You weren’t overwhelmed by Teacher Gu’s momentum.”

“As for Teacher Gu, this role is tailor-made for you. It’s too suitable.”

When Tang Ziyou heard this, he couldn’t help but complain in his heart. Wasn’t this tailor-made? There was no such character in the previous play!

Cheng Feng didn’t expect that the two of them would cooperate so tacitly. She looked at them with joy and felt that the changes this time were really worthwhile.

After Tang Ziyou finished shooting, he went back to his place to rest.

Gu Jiuci didn’t bother him, sitting quietly in his chair and chatting with Shan Qikun, only peeking at him from time to time.

Shan Qikun was helpless, “You might as well sit with him if you want to see him so much. What are you doing by my side? You are in Cao camp but your heart in Han camp?” (身在曹营心在汉, idiom meant to be somewhere while longing to be somewhere else, here)

Gu Jiuci glanced at him, “If I could sit there, would I still be here with you?”

Shan Qikun sneered, “That’s right. Xiao Tang doesn’t want to see you.”

Gu Jiuci: ……

“You said as if he wanted to see you.”

“I’ll show you whether he wants to see me or not.” Shan Qikun said and stood up.

Gu Jiuci grabbed him with quick eyesight and quick hands, “All right, all right. Sit down well. What good will I do to you if I’m so angry?”

“That still has great benefits.” Shan Qikun said, “At least, the next time I’m shortlisted, the probability of winning the prize will be higher.”

Gu Jiuci: …it really makes sense.

In the afternoon, Tang Ziyou and Gu Jiuci took another shot and then it was the highlight in the evening.

This scene was the first scene in which Sheng Feiguang’s mind was unstable and the demon was born which was Gu Jiuci’s appearance.

Tang Ziyou didn’t like this scene very much. To be precise, he was a little afraid of this scene and was afraid of a line in this scene.

The relationship between him and Gu Jiuci was so special to the point that the dialogues weren’t someone else, but he felt himself who spoke. Gu Jiuci said that he would be scared and resist. (以致于很多台词其他人说他不会觉得有什么)

Tang Ziyou went to Cheng Feng and asked her if she could delete it, but Cheng Feng refused.

“There is no problem with this line, it’s very reasonable.” She said, “Why do you want to delete it?”

Tang Ziyou naturally couldn’t tell the real reason, so he could only find another excuse to perfuse the past. Fortunately, Cheng Feng didn’t ask much.

The director frowned when he saw him and asked him, “What’s wrong? Not in good condition?”

Tang Ziyou shook his head, “It’s all right.”

“Then get ready, it’s time to start shooting.”

Tang Ziyou nodded.

I can’t escape anyway, so let’s finish the shooting early.

Director Wang adjusted the camera, watching that he and Gu Jiuci were ready, and shouted, “Start.”

Sheng Feiguang sat on the bed with a startled look. He gasped, thinking about his dream just now and felt his heart beating faster and faster.

“Are you scared?” He heard someone ask him.

“I’m not.” He replied unconsciously.

The voice said firmly, “You are scared.”

“I’m not!” Sheng Feiguang said loudly.

“Who are you?” He asked, “Where are you? Why are you in my room?”

“Why can’t I be in your room? I’ll be whereever you are.”

“Stop playing tricks! Who the hell are you? Come out!” He shouted.

The man smiled, “I’m in your heart.”

Sheng Feiguang frowned, “What did you say?”

“I said I was in your heart.”

The next second, he saw a person in front of him. The man was dressed in black, with handsome eyebrows. The light from outside the window came in, adding a trace of evil and wickedness to his picturesque face.

He looked down at him and slowly approached him, pressing his right hand against his heart.

“I am your heart demon,” he whispered. His voice soft and charming were full of allure.

Sheng Feiguang watched him staring at him, without turning his eyes, his low voice came from his ears, “I’m your love, hate, desire, anger, and insanity.”

Tang Ziyou was stunned in an instant.

He stared at the person in front of him and the scenes of the past slowly emerged in his mind. The line he was most reluctant to face at this moment, softly but strongly impacted his ears and his heart.

It was so deafening that he couldn’t speak.

He could only stare at the person in front of him blankly, staring directly at his eyes helplessly.

Director Wang shouted, “Cut.”

Tang Ziyou retracted his gaze and lowered his head.

Director Wang looked at the camera for two seconds and said to him, “Xiao Tang, you just did the last scene again, your emotions…”

Director Wang looked at the shock, sadness, and confusion in his eyes at the moment when the camera froze the frame. He felt a bit too complicated, but the scene in this scene was beautiful and the eyes of the two people looking at each other had a sense of story.

However, this was different from his initial assumptions, so he still said, “You don’t need to present such a complicated sense of depth. This is the birth of Sheng Feiguang’s heart demon. It’s the first time he confronts his own heart demon. The main emotion should be shocked. You just need to show shock.”

Tang Ziyou nodded, “Okay, I get it.”

“You make adjustments, Teacher Gu has no problems. Teacher Gu, you can do it again according to your performance just now.”

“Okay.” Gu Jiuci said with a smile.

Tang Ziyou took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and completed the scene again.

This time he tried to restrain his emotions and only allowed himself to show his due surprise. Director Wang called out “cut” with great satisfaction and looked at his eyes seriously in the lens.

Tang Ziyou got out of bed when he saw this one pass, nodded politely at Gu Jiuci, and walked out of the room.

This was his last scene. After filming this scene, his scene for today was over.

Tang Ziyou felt a little tired and hungry, so he greeted the director and prepared to go back to the hotel to rest.

Gu Jiuci wanted to be with him. After two steps, he stopped after thinking of Tang Ziyou’s eyes when he heard the phrase “I’m your love, hate, desire, anger, and insanity” for the first time.

He was rarely aware of the emotional loss of the other party and realized that it should be related to himself. Therefore, he didn’t think Tang Ziyou would want to see himself again at this time and take patience to deal with himself.

Gu Jiuci sighed and walked back to his chair.

Tang Ziyou drank a bowl of porridge and ate some snacks in the hotel restaurant before returning to his room.

He took a shower and looked at the night outside the window. He felt a little heavy.

When he was on the scene last night, in such scene and environment, his lines had no feelings, so Gu Jiuci cooperated and didn’t inject emotion into his lines. Therefore, even though Gu Jiuci said that sentence, he was only slightly moved and there wasn’t many ups and downs.

However, today, in such a scene and environment, Gu Jiuci showed off his acting appeal and said that sentence very emotionally, pulling him back to the past in an instant.

At that moment, Tang Ziyou couldn’t even tell whether it was his own heart demon or Sheng Feiguang’s heart demon, whether it was Sheng Feiguang’s love, hate, desire, anger, and insanity, or it was his own.

He once loved Gu Jiuci so warmly, loved him with all his heart, and even turned him into something unfamiliar to him.

He was indeed his love, hate, desire, anger, the passion of love, and greed.

Tang Ziyou sighed. He always felt that he had put down Gu Jiuci and no longer loved him. Gu Jiuci was no different from the others on the road.

But in the end, he loved him, so he was still different from others after all.

Tang Ziyou closed the curtains and advised himself, “Forget it, don’t think about it. Go to bed early.”

He exhaled heavily, only hoping that Gu Jiuci’s scene would be finished and disappear from his eyes as soon as possible.

It took time and space to forget a relationship, but Gu Jiuci was dangling in front of his eyes every day now. It was too disturbing for him. He needed space without Gu Jiuci.
