Miss Gu & Miss Qu Chapter 83:
Gu Xizhi spent the whole night in the cold. At dawn, the sound of the door opening woke up Gu Xizhi, who was lying on the bedside and asleep. He raised his head and Shen Ya appeared at the door. Gu Xizhi squeezed Qu Xizhi's hand Involuntarily tighten up a little.
"The nurse will come later, don't interfere with other people's work, besides, you should know that it's useless after one night, we will go to Italy after she finishes the operation, don't look for her again."
After listening to him finish speaking, Gu Xizhi's eyes slowly fell to Qu Xizhi.
Last night she didn't stop trying to communicate with her, and she didn't respond as if she was deaf from the beginning to the end. Later, she also felt frustrated, so she let herself be attacked by sleepiness, but this will Hearing what Shen Ya said, she became unwilling again.
"It's not up to you whether you can find her or not. You are just engaged. It's strange that you can be in charge of everything for her. Also, if you don't interfere with the nurse's work here, I certainly won't." Yes."
Shen Ya nodded lightly, "I want to see how long you can last."
As soon as he finished speaking, the phone vibrated and appeared in Gu Xizhi's pocket. Gu Xizhi looked down, thought for a while, and took out the phone with one hand to connect, "Hello?"
Lili on the other end of the phone jumped anxiously, "Xiaojing, what are you doing? You won't see the tens of millions of contracts. Do you want to pay the company your next life? How many things to do? Where are you?"
Gu Xizhi looked at his watch, "I'll go tomorrow, I'm not free now."
"It will kill someone!" Lili immediately said, "Boss Tian and the investor are waiting for you in the office. If you don't show up within an hour, I will be the first to be fired. Xiaojing, take care of yourself." , I don't matter, are you even in this important battle?"
Gu Xizhi was silent for a moment, "Wait for me, I'll be right there."
After hanging up the phone, he looked up at Shen Ya, stood up and whispered in Qu Xizhi's ear, "I'll come back to see you soon, this is the last time, you must wait for me."
Qu Xizhi was silent from beginning to end.
There are many things in life that cannot be controlled by oneself. Gu Xizhi is pushed around like a puppet all day long. Gu Xizhi returns to the 13th floor of the hospital as soon as work ends at 9 o'clock in the evening. Although he also expected to enter Qu Xizhi again The previous ward would be very difficult, but it never occurred to me that there would be no need to enter at all.
"Sorry Miss, the patient in that ward left this morning, and I don't know where he went."
Watching the nurse complete the sentence with an apologetic face, Gu Xizhi just quietly rubbed the back of his hand that was injured by the whip, and did not say a word for a long time.
At ten o'clock in the evening, the streets of the city were deserted. Gu Xizhi parked his car on the side of the road and sat in the driver's seat holding his mobile phone and waited quietly.
After listening to the other party's words, Gu Xizhi sighed slightly, "Keep looking, and try your best, no matter how long you look for."
The other side of the phone probably gave an affirmative answer, and Gu Xizhi then threw the phone aside.
At the end of the new year, Gu Xizhi still works in an anxious and busy atmosphere, but whenever she has time, she will drive to the gate of Qu's house to wait, even though she can't wait for anything, and she never expects to enter that villa .
The arrival of the Spring Festival in early February filled the city with joy. "Black and White Feather" was released on the first day of the new year according to the original schedule. What should have been a day of rest and reunion due to the pre-work and film promotion turned out to be for Gu Xizhi He was twice as busy, and at four o'clock in the morning on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, Gu Xizhi had just laid down to rest for a while, when a sudden but hopeful ringing of the bell broke Gu Xizhi's drowsiness.
"What? Qu Xizhi isn't in the city?" Gu Xizhi said while taking notes on a piece of paper, "Tell me the address."
After a long time without writing, Gu Xizhi quickly said, "Why are you calling me if you don't know the address?"
The other party didn't know what to say, Gu Xizhi's expression suddenly became serious, "Are you sure he bought two tickets to Italy tomorrow morning?"
There was an answer soon, Gu Xizhi held the phone, and after a while he said dully, "Got it." He threw the phone away casually.
As soon as the phone on this side dropped, the phone on the other side rang again. Gu Xizhi looked at the time wearily, and the action of swiping the end button changed because of the caller.
"Xiaojing." After the call was connected, Lili urged without hesitation, "I just confirmed the location of the awards, the cultural center at 7 o'clock tonight, you have a good rest, the plane ticket is at 2 o'clock in the afternoon."
Gu Xizhi just responded casually, "Understood."
In domestic film festivals, although Jinding, Jinzong and Jintong are often compared due to regional relations, the quality is always the same. This time, "Black and White Feather" was nominated for seven awards, including Best Feature Film, Best Director, and Two Best Actresses. Therefore, the news that the two female co-stars competed for the film before the awards ceremony has become the most reported by the media. It's a gimmick, but it's a pity that Qu Xizhi has been very low-key since the earthquake, and she hasn't been seen in the film promotion or charity activities, so everyone's target has become Gu Xizhi.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Gu Xizhi stayed at the hotel. Before putting on makeup, Lili pushed a lot of brand-sponsored clothing. Gu Xizhi caught a glimpse of one of the lively red evening dresses, and signaled Lili to stay. Li looked at the strange and flamboyant red for a while, and hesitated for a long time to keep it with a **** dress of the same brand.
The party started at seven o'clock, and all the guests who had finished walking the red carpet were seated. Without any suspense, Qu Xizhi, who was also nominated for the best actress, did not show up. This also disappointed the media reporters who had been waiting early in the morning. Fortunately, " The theme of "Black and White Feather" that was not released in the mainland and the deletion of the **** scene made the media very interested. Gu Xizhi in the interview area was almost overwhelmed by the media's questions, because the director Li Scarlett and She Jia, who was nominated for the best supporting actress, settled the matter in time To avoid embarrassment.
As predicted by the Internet and the media, this time the Golden Tong Award became the home of "Black and White Feather" because of the appearance of Li Scarlett. She has already won the top prize abroad, which marks a lifetime achievement. The place feels like the presence of a king in person.
In the audience seats, Gu Xizhi and Li Scarlett were seated next to each other. When the best actress award was about to be announced after the nominated heroine works, Li Scarlett suddenly said, "This should be my last movie, I hope You are all well."
Gu Xizhi couldn't hear the noise during the banquet, and after a while he understood what she meant before turning his eyes and said, "Sister Jia, it would be a waste if you don't make movies with your talent."
"It's like climbing a mountain. You have reached the highest peak. No matter how beautiful the scenery behind you is, it will never be more beautiful than the top of the mountain. It's better to look at the scenery from another place."
Gu Xizhi nodded after a while, "I hope you can see the most beautiful scenery on the other road."
Li Scarlett turned her head and patted her on the shoulder lightly, "Get ready to accept the award, Qin Shiyu is the most beautiful scene in the film, and it will also be your most beautiful scene."
Gu Xizhi just lowered his head to look at the phone that was not moving.
All kinds of lights on the stage created a dazzling visual sense. The male and female hosts wore solemn black and white dresses. The humorous host style made the scene feel serious and dignified.
"We all know that Jin Tong's best actor has always been a male god, so what about the best actress?"
The young hostess turned the microphone to the audience seats with a smile on her face. The fans in the seats did not answer "Goddess" as expected, but called out the names of their supporting actors.
"Well, I heard it all." The host returned to the center of the stage and smiled towards the camera. The judges are the judges, and now we invite Mr. Lu Guangyi, President of Phoenix Media Group, and Ms. Jia Yun, our last Jintong actress, to read the list of winners for us."
Lighting and music pushed the atmosphere to j□j for a while. A middle-aged man and a beautiful woman walked out of the entrance area amid applause. The woman walked to the stage with the support of the man and took the list envelope with graceful steps. After that, they each stood in the center of the stage.
The applause gradually faded, and the two award presenters looked at the list of winners. The man motioned for the lady to read it out, and the lady did not go around the circle, and said to the camera, "I am honored to announce the list of the best actresses for this year's Jintong Awards. I want to say that this year's heroine is not only the goddess in my heart, but also the actress who deserves her name. I personally watched "Black and White Feather" starring her three times in theaters..."
Speaking of which, the applause from the audience had swallowed her voice, and she continued after a while, "I watched it three times in the theater, and I loved her character so much, and then I just talked to her in the audience. Let's bet Xiao Yingdi, I said that these two Xizhi interpreted the roles so well, it is difficult to determine who is better, why don't we bet on one each, and whoever loses will invite you to dinner tonight."
The scene cuts to Xiao Ji who is in the audience, and then quickly returns to Jia Yun.
"Then I want to say." Jia Yun smiled and looked at Xiao Ji's position in the audience, "Actor, you lost this time."
The camera lingered on Xiao Ji for a long while, Xiao Ji just nodded and smiled slightly towards the camera, making it impossible to guess the answer.
"Okay, in order for me to have the actor's meal sooner, I won't be a secret." The camera cuts back to Jia Yun, who puts down the list and faces the camera with a sweet smile, "Now I will announce, this year The winner of the Golden Tong Award for Best Actress is..."
The lights focused on the three nominated actors, and a close-up of the three was cut on the big screen.
Gu Xizhi, like the other two actors who had already been defeated, had a calm expression on his face with a smile on his face.
This time, the mood is really very peaceful.
The camera returned to Jia Yun, her eyes were cast on Gu Xizhi without hesitation, her voice was loud and clear, "She is here today, she is the actor of Qin Shiyu, Miss Gu Xizhi. "
"Gu Xizhi, Miss Gu Xizhi, congratulations." The male host immediately took the words and applauded, followed by unprecedented applause from the audience.
The big screen switched to a close-up of Gu Xizhi. Gu Xizhi, who had young and elegant short hair and was wearing a bright red knee-length dress, sat there and nodded, and quickly stood up and bowed to the surroundings, looking very calm calm down.
If this incident happened three years ago, she would probably be overjoyed and uncontrollably excited, but this is already three years later.
A literati said well, to become famous as early as possible, if it comes too late, happiness will not be so happy.
Things that have been waiting for too long are probably not what they originally wanted.
"Good Miss Gu Xizhi, please come to the stage to accept the award."
The clips of the movie were played back on the big screen, and then the music that symbolized victory sounded. Gu Xizhi hugged the two people around him to thank him, and then walked out of the banquet, walking towards the stage with vigorous and brisk steps.
The lights and the camera were finally given to her alone this time. Gu Xizhi received the trophy from Jia Yun, thanked him, and followed the host's instructions to the microphone to deliver his acceptance speech.
"Thank you, Ms. Jia Yun, for her great reputation. I almost dare not go on stage."
With a teasing tone, he gestured to Jia Yun who was about to leave.
Jia Yun smiled and made a victory gesture.
The applause gradually subsided, and the angle of the lighting changed. The host and the award presenters walked off the stage one after another. Various cameras were aimed at the only absolute protagonist left on the stage. Under the spotlight, she looked exquisite and youthful.
"I'm very happy to receive this long-awaited award. The opportunity is rare for me. Maybe I have to delay the organizer for a few minutes to say something from my heart, but before that, I want to say some 'routines'" .
Holding the trophy firmly in her hand, she was smiling but calm.
No one seems to be afraid of wasting shots at this time. Every time she says a word, there will be countless shutter sounds in the audience seats.
Gu Xizhi turned to Li Scarlett in the audience under countless gazes, "Thank you director Li Scarlett, thank you for choosing me as her heroine among so many actors, and thank her for giving me Qin Shiyu The role of an actor, the quality of an actor's performance has a lot to do with the role she interprets. The four actors nominated for Best Actress this time are all excellent. I think the judges gave me this trophy not because I am better than them all, but because Because this role endows the actor with stronger charm, I am very grateful to Director Li for leaving this role to me, and also thank Director Li for his teaching during the filming process, without Director Li, there would be no Gu Xizhi standing on stage now.”
On the stage, Gu Xizhi bowed deeply to Li Scarlett, and the camera cut to Li Scarlett in the audience, her smile was very peaceful.
"Then I would like to thank the judges for voting for me." When the camera cuts back to Xizhi, she continued to speak facing the judges, "I am almost thirty years old this year, and I have debuted for nearly ten years. This is the fourth I nominated Best Actress for the first time, and I would like to thank the judges for giving me a complete end to my youthful years of repeated defeats before I turned thirty."
Bow to pay tribute, thunderous applause from the audience.
The award ceremony was broadcast live on the LED TV outside the cultural center, and passers-by were finally willing to stop their busy pace to watch the Best Actress.
At the awards ceremony, the close-up shots look back at Xi Zhi, she holds the trophy in her hand and faces the camera, but this time she seems to be talking to the camera.
"The third bow is for you." He bowed deeply to the camera, and his smile was still calm when he raised his head, but the audience at the scene clearly noticed something wrong with the atmosphere.
"Although you didn't come, I know you will definitely see it."
There were more and more shutter sounds, and the cameras focused on her again. Her meaningful words made all the people who were playing with their mobile phones concentrate on the stage and looked at the stage, their expressions became curious and focused.
"I bow to you because I know that without you, I wouldn't even have the chance to bow the first two times." She kept looking directly at the camera, "When I met you at the age of twenty-six, I was still living in a wandering world, Both work and relationship have failed, although you are not my first love, but it is the best and even illusory love I have encountered, your good intentions even made me..."
When the word "love" was said, the audience burst into applause like booing. Gu Xizhi's voice was drowned out, and he continued to smile at the camera after a while.
"Whether it is your excellence or your hard work to me, I feel that you are like a **** who is high and unattainable. I can only step on your shadow and be an ordinary person who will never catch up with you. Four years In the past, I was like dust and didn’t want to expect to be side by side with you again. Four years later, in order to be able to catch up with your pace, I put the cart before the horse and worked hard to show off your love. I don’t think I never dislike you, but I don’t Dare to use this and I like you more because I don’t dare, this kind of relationship has a lot more hesitation and passivity.”
The audience was particularly interested in this kind of thing that they loved to hear, and once she finished speaking, warm applause broke out again.
"Lili once asked me a question, to the effect that I would trade you for superstar achievements." Her tone was always as if she was talking to another person, "Obviously, without you, no matter how many achievements I have It doesn’t make any sense to me, because in the past, these were just ladders close to you for me, but if there is no one on the top of the ladder, then what am I going to climb up in the cold place?”
She shook the trophy in her hand, "I like it very much, it's just because you have one too, I wanted to use it to shorten the distance between us, but in the end I found out that it was wrong."
The warm applause made the atmosphere of the scene even more heated. Someone was already whispering about the object of her confession, and Gu Xizhi could only hear his own voice in front of the microphone after the applause subsided.
"The reason why there are so many twists and turns between us is because I think you are too powerful. You have always been like a fairy tale out of reach to me. I live in your shadow from the beginning to the end. I don’t even dare to wear red, but in fact you are just an ordinary person, you have your goodness and flaws, and I should also have my own beautiful scenery, a scenery that I really love.”
She paused before saying, "I like you and I am willing to become better for you, but it must not be good in a narrow sense, so from today onwards I don't want to chase movies endlessly, just like I don't want to chase after you anymore. Shadow."
After saying this sentence, there was a lot of discussion in the audience, but the news that the queen announced the end of the movie just after getting the movie made the shutter sound from the audience horrifying for a while.
"What you gave me is unforgettable forever. I can't like others after liking you. I just hope that you will give me another chance to be liked by me like an ordinary person, like another me in the world. .”
She faced the camera with a sincere expression, "I don't intend to say your name to bring trouble to your unresolved life, I just hope that no matter where you see me or hear me in any corner of the world, you can change your mind and stay .”
Clasp your hands together with a reverent expression.
Although the audience was stunned, they still gave her encouraging applause.
At the same time, the online media was almost crazy.
In Gu Xizhi's last Weibo, it was just a forwarded Weibo, but there were thousands of comments in a minute.
"Well, you're crazy! Are you confessing your love?"
"Ah, you are so beautiful, actress!"
"Who are you confessing to?"
"Congratulations on getting the best actress!"
…
The airport in a few hours.
"Miss Gu, may I ask if the person you confessed to at the awards ceremony tonight is a man or a woman?"
"Miss Gu Xizhi, are you announcing your retirement tonight? Are you really no longer shooting movies?"
"Miss Gu, Miss Gu, some people speculate that you are **** like Qin Shiyu in the play, so you can act so vividly. Is this true?"
…
Gu Xizhi's car was blocked by countless media reporters and couldn't move forward. She had no choice but to say to the driver, "Turn around now, there are too many reporters, so I don't want to go to the airport."
Gu Xizhi immediately said, "No, I have to go back tonight, and I won't be able to catch the plane any longer."
"You have also seen that there are so many reporters at each gate now, and they were surrounded in the past. It is impossible to catch the plane."
"I have to go back tonight." Gu Xizhi looked at the time and emphasized, "You know I'm going to the airport tomorrow morning."
"Let's drive to the neighboring city to catch the plane." Lili said dejectedly, "but the time of the ticket may not be suitable."
Gu Xizhi looked at the reporter who was thrown far away in the rearview mirror, and propped up his forehead wearily.
It was one o'clock at night when we arrived in the neighboring city. The nearest flight took off an hour ago, and the remaining one took off at 6:30 the next morning. There was nothing we could do. Flight ticket at 6:30 in the morning.
Early in the twelfth lunar month of winter, it was still dark at 6 o'clock in the morning, and most people in the airport hall, which was illuminated by lights, were wrapped in thick down jackets. Contacting Liang Huan, the other party's voice was obviously sober this time.
"Xiao Jing, Anda and I are already at the airport, don't worry, we will definitely stop Shen Ya and Qu Xizhi when we see them later."
"I won't repeat thank you to you." Gu Xizhi looked at the time, "I'll call you as soon as I get off the plane, please stop Qu Xizhi."
"I will."
A voice prompting to turn off the phone sounded on the plane, Gu Xizhi put down the phone hesitantly, and looked out the window at clusters of faint fire lights in the deep darkness.
Seven thirty in the morning.
Airport departure hall.
Liang Ying ran up and down the security checkpoint without stopping for a moment. Anda looked worried and went up and carried her back to her seat. Liang Huan, who had been waiting for a long time, saw Anda and Liang Ying and said, "It's half past seven, they It's time for the plane to take off, why can't you see anyone?"
Anda looked at the time, "Wait a little longer."
Between speaking, Liang Ying tilted her head to look at the west gate entrance of the airport, and repeatedly tugged on Anda's sleeve, "Father, Daddy, little Aqu and cannon fodder are here."
Seven forty past seven.
Gu Xizhi got off the plane as soon as the plane landed, and called Liang Huan at the same time. The other party connected quickly, but his tone sounded full of apology.
"I'm sorry Xiaojing, I..."
Gu Xizhi was taken aback, "Is she gone?"
"The plane took off two minutes ago."
Gu Xizhi stopped suddenly.
At seven o'clock in the morning, the sun was dim, and Gu Xizhi turned his head to look at the planes taking off, his eyes gradually settled on the only horizon left under the sun.
The horizon is the place where the sky and the earth meet, and it is also the end of the sky and the earth.
In ancient times, people called it Tianya.
Gu Xizhi looked at it for a long time, and took his phone back, "Did you talk to her?"
"Shen Ya has a lot of people around her. If she doesn't want to speak, countless mouths can answer for her."
Gu Xizhi was silent for a while, then nodded slowly, "I see, thank you."
Early in the morning, the airport waiting hall was filled with boarding notification sounds, and the large green belt outside the airport was shrouded in mist, which was relatively quiet.
One of Gu Xi walked out of the terminal hall and hailed a taxi. The driver on the taxi played the city news at first, and then switched to light music when he saw someone in the car.
The driver is a middle-aged man, even though Gu Xizhi was wearing sunglasses, he recognized her at a glance.
"Miss Gu, where are you going?"
Gu Xizhi looked up at him in surprise, and quickly smiled politely, "Go ahead first."
"Okay." The driver started the gas pedal and said nothing.
The good air in the morning makes people feel refreshed. When the mood is relaxed, the traffic jam along the road during work hours becomes a beautiful landscape instead. The city is so big and so lively, and the emotions of people on the street are different. The joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys seem so insignificant.
The taxi drove straight for a long time before Gu Xizhi said belatedly, "Go to the riverside."
"Okay." The driver said with a smile, "But let me remind you that today is Valentine's Day. When the sun rises higher, the riverside should be bustling."
Gu Xizhi smiled and nodded, "Thank you, I understand."
On the riverside in the cold morning, there are only old people who get up for exercise and take a walk in the morning. Occasionally, young people pass by, and most of them are busy running. Gu Xizhi paid the driver and said goodbye to the driver. Tens of thousands of families fell on the river, covering the long river bridge under golden light.
A pair of elderly couple supported each other and walked down the bridge step by step. The golden sunlight fell on their white hair, and the picture was peaceful and meaningful.
Gu Xizhi watched the two walk away, and then boarded the bridge slowly.
The vast river is quiet because there are few people disturbing it. Cruise ships docked on the shore one after another. The cold and tall buildings in the distance ooze warmth in the sun. The whole city attracted attention. The woman on the screen was wearing a long silver dress studded with diamonds, with a bright and charming smile and a dignified and elegant posture.
Living in the camera for too long often blurs the real humanity and immaculate imagination.
Gu Xizhi stared at her for a long time, took out his mobile phone facing the sun and sent a message to a phone number that he hadn't called for a long time.
"Peach blossoms bloom in March, and chrysanthemums bloom in September. Come at your own time."
"I still want to wait for you."
Not long after the message was sent, someone else's cell phone rang in his ears. Gu Xizhi casually glanced at the people around him, and once again turned his gaze to the vast river.
About two seconds later, Gu Xizhi gradually looked away from the river, with a complicated expression on his face.
After another two seconds, Gu Xizhi clenched his hands and slowly turned his head towards the people around him.
Suddenly countless powder-blue balloons floated over the quiet city. An astonishingly beautiful woman stood on the bridge two meters away from her, wearing an off-white buckle-free cloak coat with a bright yellow shirt inside. The hollow knitted dress, the red rootless shoes under the feet and the blazing red lips are like the brightest colors in winter.
She smiled towards Gu Xizhi, her smile became brighter because of her sweetness.
"Gu Xizhi, Happy Valentine's Day."
Rows of neat and loose two-color balloons appear in the shape of a huge heart because of the careful arrangement. Those fragile and light things fly higher and higher with the wind, gradually covering the city.
More and more people stopped to look up, and more and more people pointed at each other in surprise.
They carry love to the unknown distance, and the other end seems to be still on the distant horizon.
Gu Xizhi watched them search for the place called Tianya, and after a long, long time, raised a mysterious smile, "I just made a wish."
Someone answered her, "What wish?"
"I hope that every year at this time in the future, I can tell you here..."
She stared at her, "Can we still be here on Valentine's Day next year?"
Qu Xizhi smiled and walked towards her all the way between them.
The river is mighty, and there is a wonderful echo in the distant sky.
The echo has only one word, just like a woman and a son.
"Okay."
The author has something to say: Tsk, the ending is okay
