Chapter 32 Performance

The men were understated in light jackets and jeans.

Lu Yuxing wiped his face wearily, but raised his head to meet those familiar eyes.

It was Chen Guzhou.

"Are you okay?" Chen Guzhou sat down next to him, and when the theater lights dimmed, he took off the mask and hung it on his chin.

Enduring his stomach tumbling, Lu Yuxing waved his hand at him to indicate that it was okay.

Chen Guzhou glanced worriedly, and wanted to say something more, but when he saw that someone was sitting in the empty seat beside him, he had no choice but to put on the mask again.

The show was about to start, and the lights in the auditorium were completely dimmed.Chen Guzhou leaned on the back of his chair, and like other spectators waiting for the opening, his eyes were fixed on the slowly lowering blue curtain.

Lu Yuxing glanced at him in the dark, frowning.

If he hadn't gone to the newspaper office for an internship or attended Tang Hongda's banquet, the first time he met Chen Guzhou should have been at the audition scene.

However, according to the current situation, Lu Yuxing's judgment was wrong.Chen Guzhou came to the Hong Kong Grand Theater to watch a drama quietly, certainly not for the simple purpose of passing time.

Most likely, he came to find actors for his new movie.

The hurried and cheerful piano sounded again, and the scene behind the blue curtain gradually appeared. The old butler hurriedly appeared on the stage, and the same intense applause as last night erupted from the audience.

Chen Guzhou seemed to feel the gaze of the young man beside him, and turned his head slightly to meet his gaze.

Lu Yuxing turned his eyes away from Chen Guzhou and looked at the stage.

The protagonist Algy has already appeared on the stage, dusting off his gorgeous nightgown, and is discussing the topic of marriage with the butler with his legs crossed.

"Are you surprised to see me here?" Chen Guzhou suddenly asked in a low voice.

His voice was so small that it was almost overwhelmed by the heated dialogue on stage.Although Lu Yuxing looked at the stage, he kept his eyes open.

"Well," Lu Yuxing propped his elbows on the armrest of the seat, and said, "Director Chen, you are a very busy person."

At this moment, Tang Tang appeared.

It was different from what I saw backstage last night. When he was full of vigor, he pushed the door open like a spring breeze, Lu Yuxing's heartbeat accelerated in an instant, and he was attracted by the aristocratic temperament on the stage.

Mr. Ernest Worthing stepped forward to hug his friend, sat lazily on the sofa, raised his eyebrows slightly, and glanced down the stage while making high-spirited remarks.

He looked at someone in a corner in the darkness for a moment, then smiled and looked away.

Lu Yuxing didn't come back to his senses for a while, but Chen Guzhou who was beside him smiled vaguely, and he could clearly see Tang Tang's eyes just now.

From the moment Tang Tang appeared on stage, the two stopped talking and focused all their attention on the stage.

Lu Yuxing still felt a little sleepy, he sank in his seat, and his tinnitus kept ringing.His gaze followed Tang Tang all the time, and there was not only appreciation but also scrutiny in his eyes.

On the stage, the vain and proud young master led his fiancée, and his every move was a show.Lu Yuxing supported his head and watched drowsily, but he couldn't tell whether it was Tang Tang on the stage or his young self.

Their heights and shapes are somewhat different, but Tang Tang has thoroughly studied the notes he wrote on the script. It can be said that he is a perfect replica of Lu Yuxing's version of Jack.

Although he acted in a satirical drama, the nobleness of his gestures still made the audience laugh so that they were deeply attracted.

Was this extraordinary ability also taught by his "teacher"?

Amid the increasingly noisy tinnitus, his vision was a little out of focus.The two figures overlapped, erratic under the spotlight.

He pressed the center of his brow with his thumb, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind.

All doubts seem to point to the same person.

He half-closed his eyes, looked at the young boy with a handsome smile on the stage, and didn't want to think about it any further.He was really sleepy, with insomnia all night and running around during the day, his body seemed to be falling asleep uncontrollably.

Consciousness was dazed, and I don't know how long it had passed. When I opened my eyes again, the stage had already entered the curtain call.

All the actors stand in a row on the stage, hand in hand and bow to the audience.

The audience in the front row had already stood up and applauded, but Lu Yuxing's line of sight was blocked, so he stood up and applauded along.

Tang Tang stood beside Bu Han, bowed and raised his eyes to look in Lu Yuxing's direction, a little displeasure appeared on his little face with light make-up.

Lu Yuxing: "..."

The applause around him was especially loud.Chen Guzhou was so devoted to the drama that he didn't even notice that Lu Yuxing had already fallen asleep.After dealing with Tang Tang, Lu Yuxing looked at Chen Guzhou again and asked:

"Director Chen, have you gained anything?"

Chen Guzhou glanced at him, narrowed his eyes exposed outside the village, and smiled secretly.

"Let him come to audition next week," Chen Guzhou looked at the stage with satisfaction, "I will fax the address to his brother."

Lu Yuxing followed his gaze, silently looking at Tang Tang who turned around and left the stage.

At that time, he did not intend to take the initiative to try Chen Guzhou's new play. If Professor Li Yaoqiang did not strongly request, he would not have any interaction with Chen Guzhou.

Looking at it now, Chen Guzhou's olive branch had already been thrown out at that time.

After the show ended, Lu Yuxing bid farewell to Chen Guzhou, went straight to the back door of the theater to wait for Tang Tang, and offered to apologize.

After getting along with Tang Tang, he gradually became aware of each other's temperament.When he first met Tang Tang, Lu Yuxing felt that he had a soft personality, well-behaved and innocent, but after a long time of contact, the temper of a young master hidden under his appearance was revealed.

Sure enough, after everyone had changed their clothes and came out, Tang Tang walked out slowly carrying the costumes.

He pouted with some dissatisfaction, hugged the clothes Lu Yuxing gave him, closed the door behind his back, and walked over.

The night wind is a bit cool, the back door of the theater is facing a small garden, and the shadows of the trees are rustling.

Mr. Jack, who had been so splendid on the stage just now, is now drooping his head, and the broken hair on his forehead has also been let down, like a small animal being bullied.

"Tang Tang." Lu Yuxing stretched out his hand to pull him over, "I'm sorry, I fell asleep just now."

"Well."

He didn't quite admit it, lowered his eyes and didn't look at Lu Yuxing. "I didn't see anyone all day, and I fell asleep after watching a show..."

"I'm sorry, I'm too tired from work today."

"Well, I know...but I want you to see if you acted well, if you learned what you taught me..."

Lu Yuxing sighed, knowing that he had to be coaxed.

"Tangtang is good," he changed his tone, pulled him into his arms, and rubbed the other person's head, "I made a mistake, I will accompany you all day to make up for it tomorrow, okay?"

The person in his arms didn't move for a while, Lu Yuxing looked down suspiciously and found that his ears were red.

Tang Tang's face was pressed against his chest, like an ostrich with its head buried in the sand, shyly crawling into his arms.

Under the dim streetlight, Lu Yuxing's throat tightened suddenly, and his heart beat wildly.

As if a hard icebreaker slammed into the millennium iceberg, thrilling cracks spread all the way to the end of the horizon.

He was afraid that Tang Tang would hear his heart beating like a drum, so he immediately pulled him away from his arms.

"Let's go, I'll take you back." With a deliberately cold face, he pulled Tang Tang around and walked out.

Tang Tang stood there without moving, his cheeks flushed slightly, and he looked at him aggrievedly.

"Ah Xing, do you like me more?"

He asked the exact same question as in the morning.

Lu Yuxing turned around and looked into his eyes.

If the object was changed to any person, it would definitely be tiresome for such a sympathetic person to struggle with this issue, but if it were replaced by Tang Tang, Lu Yuxing did not feel disgusted at all.

He used his barren love experience to think for a while, and found that Tang Tang was not angry at all because of his falling asleep.

What really made him unhappy was the plausible answer in the morning.

Lu Yuxing looked at him, his deep eyebrows and eyes became more three-dimensional under the streetlight.The four eyes met, and the heartbeat of the violent impact came again.

He vaguely sensed that something had changed.

When did it start?Was it when you bought the costumes, or when you slept together on a rainy night, or earlier?

The warm yellow light shone on Tang Tang's face. Lu Yuxing stood in the dark and watched, thinking for a moment.

"Yes."

After a while, he took two steps forward and stretched out his hand to hold Tang Tang.

"Young master, can you go home?"

A smile finally spread on Tang Tang's face, and the dimple on his left cheek was also revealed.

"Well, I'm not angry anymore."

He smiled and took Lu Yuxing's hand, and left with him.The two shadows, one tall and one short, are elongated under the street lamps and gradually drift away.
