Chapter 66 Sunset

Jian Xiwen somewhat understood why Ren He took him to live in the mountains. There were no reporters, no passers-by who knew him, and no network signal.

Cell phone signal is not good.

No one can contact him, only luck.If you are lucky, you can receive the SMS, but if you are unlucky, you cannot receive the SMS for two or three days in a row.

Only in the town can Jian Xiwen take a look at the comments on the Internet.

But they seldom go to the town, buy vegetables once, and they can eat for a week.Ren He said that unless it is a market day, the town is usually deserted, not lively and not fun.

He didn't want to go to the town too often. If he went a lot, it was hard to guarantee that no one would recognize him.

Most of the time, they stay in the mountains and live in huts.

There is no TV, no computer, no Internet, and the conditions are still simple.If it were the former Jian Xiwen, he might not be able to live for a day.But he actually lived here day after day, and he thought it was pretty good.

Ren He can find a lot of things to do every day, such as cleaning the house, sweeping the yard, and repairing every corner of the house that has problems due to too long.He also bought clear oil paint and repainted the courtyard door, house door, and floor tiles.Jian Xiwen moved a small stool and sat beside him to watch him work.

No one was in a hurry, Ren He worked slowly bit by bit, and let Jian Xiwen help him.The small house is kept clean, and the old-fashioned red floor tiles are painted with a layer of varnish, which makes the color appear deeper and gives a sense of cleanliness.

Ren He still has to cook.He cooks differently and spends many, many hours each day doing menial chores.He kneads dough, waits for the dough to ferment, kneads buns, makes steamed buns, makes red bean paste buns, and makes hand-rolled noodles.He bought very good red beans and white sugar from the town, and slowly boiled the red beans in a small pot until they were smashed, and asked Jian Xiwen to mash the red beans slowly with a spoon, stirring constantly, until the moisture was reduced, making a fragrant and sweet bean paste. red bean paste.

He bought beef, finely chopped it into minced meat, added spices and peppers, cooked it into beef paste, and served Jian Xiwen with rice.

He also spent the whole afternoon slowly cooking the tea eggs on a low heat, waiting patiently for the tea eggs to taste, and the tea was fragrant.

He got up at five o'clock in the morning, kneaded the dough, made the stuffing, and baked the thousand-layer meat pie for Jane Xiwen to eat.

Every day when Jian Xiwen woke up, she was looking forward to what she would eat today, regardless of the calories.

After eating, Ren He would take Jian Xiwen out for a walk and climb the mountain.The scenery in the mountains is very beautiful, with clear mountain springs meandering through the mountains, lush trees and plants with deep and shallow green, and unknown mountain flowers and wild fruits.They walked aimlessly, looking here and there, sometimes stopping for a long time for a bird on the tree.

On several mornings, Ren He took Jian Xiwen to a high place to watch the sunrise. He said that when he was a child, he was required to write an essay on the sunrise for his summer homework. Master took him to watch the sunrise for seven days in a row.

They spend a lot of time, a lot of patience, doing the most trivial things in life.

Jane Xiwen has never wasted time like this.

When he was young, he had to attend many interest classes and learn a lot.Piano, dancing, hostess, drums, writing, etc. In my impression, he doesn't even have free time on weekends, and he always goes back and forth between homework and interest classes.When he grew up, he began to like singing. He went to learn to sing and play the guitar by himself, and he was busy playing the guitar after school every day.By the time he entered university, he had already signed a contract to make his debut, and he was so busy that he didn't even have the last bit of personal time.

He was so busy that he was away from school most of the time throughout the year, missed many classes, and couldn't recognize all the classmates in his class. In the end, because of the lack of too many class hours, he applied for a deferral of graduation, and he still didn't even get his graduation certificate.Guan Jiamao said that the heyday of an idol is just a few years, and a solid foundation must be laid in these few years to firmly occupy this position.In the entertainment industry, it can be said that there are newcomers debuting every day. If the popularity is not maintained, this position will soon be replaced by others.

"Why did you get admitted to the Conservatory of Music? Isn't it just to sing for your debut? You have already beaten all the students in your class and stood on the track ahead of time. How could you not hold on to this position? You are admitted, and you belong to this school Students, our manuscripts can be blown all over the sky, who cares whether you have got your graduation certificate or not. Besides, you haven’t got it yet, and it’s not that you won’t get it forever. For the next album, you don’t need to live in the film and television city, and you can just have classes during the day and record at night, isn’t this a good use of time?”

Star Jian Xiwen's time is precious, not a single second should be wasted.

"Because these job opportunities of yours, the job opportunities that others can't ask for, didn't just fall from the sky. It was the hard work of the entire team, the company's resources, and your current popularity that got them."

"Indispensable."

"do you understand?"

Jian Xiwen, who is a member of the star-making factory, now understands very well, very clearly.

He is just a small screw in this star-making factory. If there is a defect, it will be discarded immediately and replaced with another small screw that is exactly the same but without defects.

Every day, there are people queuing up to be small screws, and most of them are small screws.So there is no need for disobedient or flawed ones.

One evening, Ren He took Jian Xiwen to watch the sunset.They climbed to a high place, sat down on a natural rock platform that Ren He liked very much, and waited quietly for the sunset to set.The early summer breeze is cool, rustling the leaves on the top of the mountain.The white clouds in the distance are dyed with dreamy colors by the setting sun, like pink and purple, mixed with gold, which is an indescribable splendor.This colorful color changes with the setting sun every second, the sky is getting darker, but the clouds are getting more and more gorgeous, the sky is dyed golden red, and the clouds are like burning flames.

ding-ding-

Jian Xiwen's cell phone rang twice, it was the notification tone of receiving a text message.

Maybe it's because the signal is better at the top of the mountain.

Jian Xiwen clicked on the text message, he had to read it.Sometimes Qiaolan would tell him some new news, and maybe there would be some questions that he needed to confirm to answer.

He received two text messages.

The first text message is from Zhang Yongyuan.

【Xixi, call me back if you have a signal.Teacher Zhang said that she couldn't get through your mobile phone, so she wrote you an email and sent it to your mailbox.Remember to check your emails when you can surf the Internet, the teacher cares about you very much. 】

The second text message was from his mom.

【Xiwen, your father and I have been unable to get through to your phone. I asked Assistant Qiao and said that you hid in the mountains, and there is no signal in the mountains.Your father and I were very worried and asked Assistant Qiao about the situation.Why did you hide in the mountains?Feeling overwhelmed by the current situation?If you have any difficulties, you can tell me and your father, and we will discuss and find a solution together.Your father and I don't know anything about the entertainment industry, nor do we know how to do public relations.If you don't want to do this job anymore, then you can go back to your hometown, rest for a while, and then see what you want to do. Your father and I still have a way to do this.

Are you having financial difficulties?You can tell us, we have already discussed, the money you transferred to us in the past two years, plus the house prepared for you, the two of us can pool 1000 million.If you need more to pay liquidated damages, we can think of another way. 】

Jian Xiwen sat in Ren He's arms, leaning against Ren He's firm chest, and finished reading the text message.

He was a little surprised at first.

His parents divorced when he was very young, and he took turns living with them.Later, they remarried, had children again, and had their own families.Jian Xiwen's situation became very awkward, and he became more and more estranged from his parents.Until I went to college and moved directly from home.

Later, he made his debut, became popular, became top-notch, and was searched every day.His parents have never expressed any opinions, and they don't care much about his stardom, and they don't watch what shows he is on and what dramas he makes like other parents do.

They are all busy, busy with work, busy with their families, and busy with their children's education.

After all, his younger siblings are younger than him, and they have no interest in the entertainment industry. They all have to follow the path of taking exams and going to school and work step by step, and their parents need to care about every step.

This is the first time that his parents took the initiative to care about him, and the two of them actually discussed his affairs together.In Jian Xiwen's memory, since the divorce, his parents never had a conversation.

Jian Xiwen read the text message slowly, and looked up at the burning sky and clouds in front of him.He watched the sunset gradually fall, and everything returned to darkness and silence.The mountains became quieter, and the birds all returned to their nests before the sun set completely. In the darkness, there were no birdsong, only the chirping of insects.

The panic, anxiety, fear, and helplessness that had been deliberately suppressed swept him once again.

Tears that had been forgotten for many days flowed again.

Ren He quickly noticed Jian Xiwen's strangeness, he was not surprised, but asked gently, what was written in the text message.

Jian Xiwen showed Ren He the phone and said, "My parents rarely care about me. This is the first time since my debut."

Ren He read the text message carefully, rubbed his hair, and said softly: "It's not that I don't care about you, it's that you went smoothly before, became popular quickly, and became popular, so there is nothing to worry about."

Jian Xiwen shook her head: "It's because there are too many people and things they need to care about in their lives, and there is no place for me. Maybe there is still a place for me, but it has become very small and squeezed into a corner."

His eyes adjusted to the darkness, and everything around him became clear again.Jian Xiwen saw the outline of the distant mountain, saw the shadows of the trees swaying, and saw the stars light up.

Seeing Ren He suddenly hugged his hand tightly.

"How should I put it, I don't really care about it anymore." Jian Xiwen said, "During junior high school, I was the most concerned about it. I had to change places to live every other month. Several times my classmates noticed, Ask me why I sometimes take the bus in that direction after school, and sometimes take the bus in the opposite direction. Is it to make up lessons? I didn’t know why at the time, and I couldn’t say it. Sometimes I live at my father’s house, Sometimes I live at my mother's house, and I can't say such a simple sentence."

Jian Xiwen felt Ren He gently kiss his hair.

He paused, then continued: "Maybe teenagers will have that period. Sometimes I feel very sad, but I can't say it, and I have no place to say it. My parents have children, and their children are still young, so I have to worry about it." There are so many things, no one has noticed that I have grown up enough. I like listening to music and singing since I was very young, but music has become a spiritual pillar since middle school.”

"I am a person with many suitors but no friends. I have a lot of things that no one can say. At that time, I started to learn guitar and write songs. That was a channel for me to express, a way for me to talk. Even Even a lonely person like me wants to express. But my fans haven’t heard my songs, and I haven’t released them after my debut. Do you know? After becoming an idol, I’m afraid to show my true self Yes. Guan Jiamao often said that fans will not like it, they only like a dreamy image."

"But from the very beginning, I wanted to enter the entertainment industry. I just wanted to sing for the audience, to gain recognition from others, and to gain a lot of love for 'Jane Xiwen'."

"You got it." Ren He said, hugging him tightly, "There are many people who like you."

"It's all gone now." Jian Xiwen said, tears kept falling, "My album has no chance to come out. My parents said they prepared 1000 million liquidated damages for me. Their wages are not low, but the money is right. They really said a lot. I know my parents don't care about me at all, they will also worry about me. What about other people's parents? How sad and sad will the girl's parents be."

"A lot of people scold me, why don't you come out and apologize. They are right, the murderer is not me, but I should come out and apologize. But, what should I say? I don't know what I should say. The three words 'sorry' are too It’s simple, it’s not enough. Do you want to write a small composition with tears in your eyes? But no matter how long the text is, it can’t bring back a living life. And my small composition is of no use except to push the victim to the public. It might be useful to restore my image, but—"

Jian Xiwen burst into tears.

"But, until now, I am still thinking about restoring my image, how to return to the entertainment industry, and how to restore my fans. Am I not despicable or selfish?"

Ren He hugged the crying Jian Xiwen tightly, feeling that all words of comfort were so feeble and useless.He could only keep kissing Jian Xiwen's hair and cheeks, feeling heartache and pity.
