White Swan

Chapter 40

After more than four hours, the rehearsal was finally over.The overall effect of the rehearsal was good, and the whole process was relatively smooth.The actors walked out while chatting, and the band who finished playing on the orchestra began to pack up.

A thin layer of sweat broke out from under Qiao Fei's costume, and her hair was stuck to her forehead, almost exhausted.He had been tense during the rehearsal, and now he has relaxed a little.

He followed all the actors outside the door and realized that he had forgotten the water bottle, so he had to squeeze past two staff members who were carrying speakers, and ran backstage to find the water bottle.

Maybe after a busy day, his brain was a little short-circuited. Qiao Fei searched the backstage only to remember that he placed it on the other side of the stage. No wonder he forgot it when he left. The crowded stage wants to walk over directly.

From behind the curtain, she couldn't see the part of the stage next to the auditorium. When Qiao Fei walked to the stage, she realized that Shi Xubai hadn't left yet, and was standing by the orchestra pit talking to Teacher Han of the dance troupe.Shi Xubai happened to be facing Qiao Fei's direction and saw him at a glance.

Qiao Fei began to regret his decision to come back, but it was too late to run away, so she could only stand there in a daze, watching when Xu Bai saw him and came over.

"Qiao Fei, are you avoiding me?" Shi Xubai saw that Qiao Fei didn't smile after seeing him, and the expression on his face was a little stiff, so he teased him, "Amnesia? Forgot me?"

Qiao Fei took a step back calmly, widening the distance between them.

Shi Xubai could see that Qiao Fei was a little unhappy, the smile on his face gradually faded, he frowned and asked him, "What's wrong?"

Qiao Fei shook her head, didn't know what to say, and didn't dare to speak, for fear that she would cry.

He thought that he didn't cry much, and he usually shed a few tears when he was bullied so hard by He Haoyun, but now he could only bite his lips tightly, trying his best to endure the soreness from the tip of his nose.

The auditorium turned off the lights during the rehearsal, and now the lights are turned on again after the rehearsal, illuminating the entire theater extremely brightly.

Head Zhao and several art directors sat in the first row of the auditorium. Qiao Fei glanced in that direction inadvertently, but fell into the ice cave after seeing the people around Head Zhao clearly.

That person turned out to be He Haoyun.

Head Zhao was talking to him, but He Haoyun was obviously not listening, and his eyes were fixed on Qiao Fei, showing no emotion.

Qiao Fei watched He Haoyun stand up from his seat, his tall figure felt a bit oppressive.

He was breathing faster, and before he had time to react, Xu Bai subconsciously pushed away and ran into the backstage.After coming out of the backstage door, Qiao Fei didn't know where to hide. Seeing that the door of the dressing room was open, she hurried in and closed the door softly behind her.

Qiao Fei's brain was stuck, and it took him a long time to remember that He Haoyun was the sponsor of the dance troupe. It was not surprising that he was invited to watch the rehearsal.But he hasn't been here in previous years, he doesn't bother to watch performances, he's not interested in ballet, and he doesn't care about Qiao Fei's work.

Before Qiao Fei could figure out why he was here today, the door of the dressing room was knocked open with a "bang", and He Haoyun strode in with a gloomy face.

Qiao Fei's first thought was why he forgot to lock the door, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was lucky that it was not locked, He Haoyun might just kick the door open, and then he would have to lose money.

He Haoyun came in two steps and walked up to Qiao Fei, pinching his chin to force him to look up at himself, he laughed angrily: "My dear, you are so close to him, what are you talking about?"

There was no place to hide around, Qiao Fei was forced into a corner by He Haoyun, with her back pressed against the cold wall and there was nowhere to escape.

"This is the dance troupe... There are a lot of people outside... Please let me go, just once, please." Qiao Fei was like a cornered rabbit, begging for mercy with red eyes.He didn't even dare to speak too loudly, for fear that someone outside would hear him.

"I didn't say anything to him, really, we didn't say anything."

He Haoyun didn't bother to untie the cumbersome buttons on Qiao Fei's costume, so he stretched out his hand and pulled it hard, a tear was torn at the joint between the sleeve and the shoulder.A few of the delicate buttons on the collar were snapped off, and He Haoyun pulled the fabric of the costume to peel it off.

"Let's go home, okay? Let's do it when we get home. No, don't be here...anywhere, don't be here." Qiao Fei begged bitterly, her hands resting on He Haoyun's chest, but she didn't have the strength and dared not push him away .

He Haoyun slowed down after hearing this, and when Qiao Fei thought he would really let her go, He Haoyun said, "You have no right to say no to me."

This dressing room may be Qiao Fei's last safe haven, and he will not allow his sanctuary to be defiled by the demons in front of him.

After realizing this, Qiao Fei used all her courage to push He Haoyun on the shoulder, but He Haoyun didn't expect Qiao Fei to resist, and was pushed back by him. Qiao Fei took this opportunity to escape Come on, try to run to the door.

But He Haoyun reacted very quickly, and when Qiao Fei jumped a step away, he reached out and grabbed Qiao Fei's collar, and pulled him back into his arms.

Qiao Fei choked on the collar, and her body collapsed involuntarily.

There was no flat surface to sit on, so He Haoyun swept the cosmetics and sundries on the dressing table to the ground with one last wave of his hand, and grabbed Qiao Fei by the waist to lift her up.

Bottles and cans of cosmetics were scattered all over the floor, and the air was filled with the unique fragrance of liquid foundation.

Qiao Fei was manipulated by He Haoyun like a broken doll, she limp and dared not struggle anymore, he was afraid that He Haoyun would hit him.

The collar of He Haoyun's shirt was unbuttoned, revealing the tattoo on his right shoulder extending to the corner of his neck.The tattoo of the sky and white clouds dazzled the eyes, Qiao Fei stared at it with dull eyes, thinking it was ugly.

Suddenly the door of the dressing room was knocked several times, and the two crisp sounds made Qiao Fei shiver with fright.He grabbed his clothes subconsciously, his body trembling slightly.

He Haoyun glanced over there irritably, annoyed that what he was doing was interrupted.He let go of Qiao Fei and took two steps towards the door, intending to lock it.

But the door was pushed open at this moment, Shi Xubai walked in with his hands in his pockets, and closed the door behind him.

Shi Xubai didn't feel any embarrassment at seeing what he shouldn't have. He glanced at Qiao Fei, who was disheveled, and He Haoyun, who was standing aside with a gloomy face, and said lightly, "This is a public place, Mr. He, please respect yourself."

Seeing this time guide again, He Haoyun narrowed his eyes, took Qiao Fei's arm and dragged him off the dressing table, and pushed him in front of Shi Xubai: "What's the matter? Did you fall in love with him? Isn't he just a What can you do with a broken dancer, and dance so ugly."

Her legs were a little weak, and Qiao Fei staggered a step after her feet touched the ground. She couldn't stand still, and knelt down directly, her knees hitting the ground painfully.He lowered his head and dared not look at Shi Xubai, pretending that he was just a speck of dust on the ground.

Qiao Fei didn't know how Shi Xubai would react, and thought he would deny it, but Qiao Fei heard him say: "You are wrong, Mr. He. He is the most beautiful dancing person I have ever seen."

Shi Xubai's voice was very flat, even seeing the unsightly scene in front of him, he didn't show too much emotion.He didn't look at Qiao Fei, but kept staring at He Haoyun, calmly.

Qiao Fei began to feel a faint pain in her heart, and she was pricked by this sentence like a needle point, and blood oozes out.He can accept others scolding him and cursing him, but he doesn't want to hear Shi Xubai say that he dances well.

He Haoyun's eyes dimmed, he kicked Qiao Fei aside, rolled up his sleeves, and approached Shi Xubai a few steps.

The voices of several actors walking by came from outside, and the three people in the dressing room suddenly fell silent, and looked towards the door together.Fortunately, no one from outside came in, and the sound of footsteps gradually faded away.

If something happened here and was seen by others, there might be some scandals, and He Haoyun is not only the sponsor of the dance troupe, but also the boss of Zhongnai Group, which will involve his company.The recent incidents in the company have already caused him to be overwhelmed, and there is no need to add any news about the fight with the ballet choreographer.

He Haoyun stared at Shi Xubai for a while, and finally snorted disdainfully. "Go home by yourself." He said something to Qiao Fei, then turned and walked towards the door.

When he passed by Shi Xubai, he stopped, with cold eyes, and said to him: "The surname is Shi, please listen to me clearly, stay away from those who don't belong to you, and be careful not to cause trouble for yourself."

After finishing speaking, Shi Xubai left without waiting for an answer, and bumped his shoulder hard before going out.

The dressing room was quiet again, Shi Xubai waited for He Haoyun to slam the door, and visibly relaxed.He looked back at Qiao Fei, slowly squatted down in front of him, and stretched out his hand to him.

"Don't sit on the floor, Liang." Seeing that Qiao Fei didn't get up, he kept staring at the floor, sighed slightly, and said softly, "I'll tell other actors that the dressing room is being cleaned, so they don't come in, what do you want?" You can stay here as long as you want, and you can send me a message if you need anything."

After he finished speaking, he stood up and wanted to leave, wanting to leave a little space for Qiao Fei to be alone.

The grievances and unwillingness to be cheated in Qiao Fei's heart surged up at this moment. Without thinking about it, he blurted out: "What are you trying to do? Do you think it's fun to help me?"

"What?" Shi Xubai was almost at the door, and stopped. He thought Qiao Fei was talking about the incident just now, and he was a little confused, so he said tentatively, "I saw Mr. Come here. I'm not helping you, Jophy."

Qiao Fei supported the floor and stood up, trying her best to hold back the trembling of her legs, her voice hoarse: "I'm not some little thing that can make you entertain and give alms. If you take cheating on me as entertainment, stay away from me."

"What are you talking about?" Shi Xubai didn't understand what Qiao Fei meant, and started to worry.

"Don't you just pity me?" Qiao Fei's usual promise was gone, and his voice was raised a lot, "You treat me like a puppy picked up on the street, is it fun to tease me?"

He didn't care that the clothes on his body were ripped apart, Xu Bai wanted to rush out the door when he pushed it away hard.

"What's wrong?" Shi Xubai anxiously reached out and grabbed Qiao Fei's arm, holding him tightly, "Qiao Fei, tell me what's wrong?"

Shi Xubai has never seen Qiao Fei like this.The boy's eyes were flushed, and his cheeks were also a little flushed. Obviously, his emotions were almost out of control, but he tried hard not to tremble in his voice.

"Don't, don't touch me." Qiao Fei used all her strength to not shake Shi Xubai's hand away. He didn't dare to look up into Shi Xubai's eyes. Those gentle eyes were too familiar, he might not be able to bear it. live will cry.

When Shi Xubai heard it, he didn't let go of him, but clenched his arm even tighter.Qiao Fei was hurt by his pinch, frowning and looking down at his white knuckles.

"I won't touch you." Seeing Qiao Fei's expression, Shi Xubai slowly let go of him, but he still stretched out his hand, as if he was afraid that he would run away if he didn't pay attention, "Can you tell me what's wrong?"

Qiao Fei shook her head slowly, all the strength in her body suddenly lost, and said: "You don't have to pretend, I heard everything."

"What did you hear..." When Shi Xubai heard this, it was connected with what he said before, and gradually understood, the expression on his face was a bit ugly, he hesitated and didn't know how to explain.

"You said you wouldn't leave." Qiao Fei's voice became hoarse, "You lied to me, I have nothing but you, and you still lied to me."

"Joffe..."

Qiao Fei didn't wait for Shi Xubai to finish speaking, and ran out of the dressing room without looking back, bumping into a few actors on the way, and didn't bother to apologize.

He Haoyun tore a hole in the shoulder of the performance costume on her body. Qiao Fei didn't dare to leave it in the theater directly, and stuffed it into her bag like a thief. be found.
