Huayu: I'm reborn, but you still force me to be a scumbag?

Chapter 268: Soft but firm, hugging together for warmth (300 monthly tickets 2 in 1)

Liu Yifei suddenly remembered in a trance,

Before filming this scene, director Zhang Yimou actually asked for her opinion.

Should we shoot separately and then stitch them together, or use multiple cameras to shoot together in one go?

The former can be faked, but the latter must be done for real, which may be a bit too much for a young actress. Director Zhang Yimou said at the time that he respected her personal choice.

At that time, Liu Yifei felt that this choice was too simple.

What are some good options?
She took great pains to make this film, not just for fun.

When filming "The Sound of Wind", in that pale and bright torture chamber, how Fan Binbing sacrificed herself, how she gave herself up, how she performed a scene that stunned her. She was there at the time and witnessed the whole process with her own eyes.

It can be said that she was the first audience in the world to be shocked.

She has a full sense of how the final image will turn out.

As one of the candidates, she sat in the audience and saw that scene being played twice on the big screen of the Golden Horse Awards.

Candidate the first time, win the prize the second time.

Then, everyone at the Golden Horse Awards venue burst into applause for the woman who walked onto the stage holding up her skirt and looking up.

Because everyone thinks she deserves the title, without a doubt.

When she saw that scene, she felt indescribable.

So, in this movie, Liu Yifei didn't just want to act.

She wanted to act well.

She hopes that one day in the future, she will also be able to receive such applause.

As soon as director Zhang Yimou finished asking her the question, Liu Yifei chose the second option without hesitation.

At worst, I can just risk it. That’s what she thought at the time. If Sister Binbing can do it, so can I.

In the script, this scene is the one where Jingqiu and Lao San completely express their feelings to each other.

The so-called intimate scenes were just a little bit over the top.

But when Chen Nuo's hands began to advance further according to the requirements of the script.

He not only touched her face and mouth, but also her neck. Then he started from her neck, slid down past her collarbone, and reached into the quilt. Only then did Liu Yifei realize that it was not so easy to get out.

Her whole body was shaking like a sieve, and she had to grit her teeth and clench her fists in order to endure the shyness and nervousness that was suffocating her.

Before filming began, Chen Nuo specifically told her not to worry about the camera.

What nonsense! How could she care about the camera at this moment?
All her attention was focused on the hand that was moving around her body.

Although Chen Nuo could fold his palms, reduce the contact area, and use only a few fingers, Liu Yifei did not feel relieved.

She felt that Chen Nuo's fingertips were like a few small irons, with an astonishing temperature. They were so hot that she felt like her whole body was having a fever.

At the same time, there was a tingling sensation that spread from the place of contact to her entire body.

Although he seemed to deliberately avoid sensitive parts, the vague contact still made her extremely shy.

Finally his hand reached her belly and he moved his fingers up and down there.

Liu Yifei finally couldn't bear it anymore because it was too itchy and numb, so she grabbed his wrist.

This wasn't acting at all; it was just her true feelings, but her grasp of it was perfectly connected to the script.

Then, Liu Yifei opened her eyes, turned her misty eyes and looked at Chen Nuo.

Whether it was Jingqiu or Liu Yifei, this was the first man who treated her like this in her life.

In the darkness, she and he looked at each other.

The distance between the two people is now so close that Liu Yifei can feel the man's warm breath.

There wasn't even a trace of lust in his eyes.

What are there?
His hand was grasped by her, and his face showed a trace of shame, as if he had just woken up from a dream, and his lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something.

what you want to say?
Liu Yifei felt her whole body wrapped in a layer of warm breath, making her so comfortable that she wanted to lie in this man's arms forever.

She didn't know what was in his eyes and why they were so intoxicating.

She didn't want to hear what the other person would say, because looking into his eyes, many things no longer needed to be said.

She showed what might be the most beautiful smile in the world and displayed the courage that a woman traveling around the world alone should have.

She leaned over and kissed him on the forehead.

after that,

Let go of his hand.

This time, it was the first time since Chen Nuo’s rebirth that he did not celebrate the New Year with his parents.

When Pan Chengrong heard that he couldn't go home, she was quite dissatisfied over the phone.

But later, when he heard that he was filming a Zhang Yimou movie, his attitude immediately changed and asked him to act well and not to embarrass Director Zhang.

Look, this is Zhang Yimou's status in the minds of the people across the country at that time.

However, people's hearts change quickly.

A few years later, everyone would come together to talk about Director Zhang's issue of having many children. Ten years later, when people were encouraged to have more children, Director Zhang would definitely feel that the 700 million yuan fine he paid was a painful one.

So, it is no wonder that the boss and director who seem so good now will cut ties with each other after a few years and have no more dealings with each other.
On New Year's Eve, Director Zhang Yimou may have sympathized with everyone's difficulties, or he may have had too many phone calls to make today.

In short, he asked the entire crew to finish work at five o'clock in the afternoon, and then gathered everyone in the crew together for a New Year's Eve dinner.

Chen Nuo drank tea instead of wine and ate quickly, leaving the table before 8 o'clock. He had no intention of running around in this unfamiliar place, so he called Liu Yifei and went back to his room together.

The reason why Liu Yifei sneaked in was because he saw Liu Yifei finish her meal early, and she was fidgeting and winking at him frequently, clearly asking him to take her away quickly.

Chen Nuo and his friends stayed in a hotel on the outskirts of Yichang city, more than 30 minutes away from the filming location.

With the help of the local government, the entire hotel, which had pretty good conditions, was booked by the crew to be used as their dormitory.

Liu Yifei and Chen Nuo both lived on the top floor, in a not-so-luxurious single room.

Liu Yifei lives next door to Chen Nuo.

Chen Nuo felt that the one month they lived together might have had such a huge impact on Liu Yifei that she became so immersed in the role.

At the same time, the two people basically know each other well.

Chen Nuo knew that this woman claimed to be size 37, but actually wore size 38 shoes. She ate vegetables but not garlic, onions, or carrots. She had three sets of pajamas, blue, white, and pink, and she liked the pink one the best because she especially liked Minnie.

He estimated that Liu Yifei was in a similar situation. She probably knew exactly how many pairs of underwear he had. After all, the only place to hang clothes in the house was the roof. He was not like her, who would secretly hang out his underwear in her bedroom.

So, due to several reasons combined, after joining the crew to film, Chen Nuo felt that this girl had become a bit clingy.

No, I'm not clingy. I'm still the same towards outsiders and nothing I say makes a sound.

A bit clingy to him.

After finishing filming during this period, Liu Yifei would come to sit with him almost every night.

Sometimes after taking a shower and putting on pajamas and furry slippers, she would come over and knock on his door as if it was a matter of course, and chat with him and watch TV, especially not treating him as an outsider.

He usually stays up until almost 10 o'clock, or starts chatting on the phone with someone, before going back to his room to sleep.

Tonight, she followed him in the door and slipped into the bathroom in his room before him. Chen Nuo was really not surprised at all.

It’s the Spring Festival after all.

At this point in time, not to mention Liu Yifei, even he had a vague feeling of loneliness in his heart.

Those who have never celebrated the New Year alone will not understand the feeling of being abandoned by the whole world.

Chen Nuo felt that next time if he played a person who couldn't go home for the New Year, he should be able to perform the deep emotions of being isolated from the world.

Damn, it’s really painful.

No wonder the ancients invented a term called "huddling together for warmth."

So, when the Spring Festival Gala started at 8 o'clock, he leaned against the head of the bed and covered his lower body with the quilt. Liu Yifei also took off her shoes, put her legs together in the quilt, and watched TV with him. Chen Nuo didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

This is what it means to stick together for warmth.

"Have you ever watched the Spring Festival Gala abroad?" Chen Nuo chatted with Liu Yifei while watching the opening dance.

Liu Yifei said nonchalantly: "Yes, I watch it every year."

"Oh, so you and your mother are still celebrating the New Year?"

"What do you mean?"

"I thought you only celebrate Christmas... Hahahaha." Chen Nuo said seriously, but Liu Yifei turned around. He saw the girl's expressionless face and dark eyes, and he burst into laughter.

Liu Yifei said with an unhappy face: "You always make fun of me with this. I will ask about changing my nationality after I finish filming this movie. Do you believe it? Don't laugh, I'm serious! Actually... Hey, anyway, what I said is true!"

Chen Nuo looked at the girl's expression and quickly waved his hand, "Forget it, forget it. I believe it. Don't be impulsive."

Liu Yifei said seriously: "I'm not impulsive. I've been thinking about it for a long time."

Chen Nuo looked at her and said with a smile: "Forget it, you changed your passport, how come you travel around the world?"

Liu Yifei snorted and turned back to watch the Spring Festival Gala.

At this time, Chen Nuo also started making phone calls and sending text messages to wish people a happy new year.

As usual, Mr. Li Er is still ranked first.

There was no need to explain why he couldn't go this year. Qi Yuntian had already said this.

Li Er didn't say much about the filming on the phone, but instead talked to him about Qi Yuntian's major life events.

Chen Nuo really didn't dare to say a word about this matter. He listened to Teacher Li's words tremblingly, and quickly found an excuse to hang up the phone.

Next is Zhang Yiyi.

Chen Nuo had just asked about the new script this person had written recently. Before he could say a few words, Zhang Yiyi's phone was snatched away by Li Yu, who asked directly: "Chen Nuo, do you still want my script? If not, I will find someone else."

Chen Nuo smiled and said, "Sister Li, haven't you looked for it?"

Li Yu was obviously choked up, and seemed a little angry and embarrassed. "You..."

Chen Nuo immediately said, "Fan Binbing and Liu Yifei definitely can't act. But I have someone else here, I think we can give it a try. You can wait and see after the new year. As for the investment, we can talk about it when I return to Beijing."

As soon as Li Yu hung up the phone, Fan Binbing called again.

No one knows where this slutty fox is, but she is definitely alone.

Because she spoke in a coquettish voice and came straight to the point: "Boss, are you lonely in Hubei alone? Do you want me to chat with you today? I'm so lonely and miss you so much..."

Really, every time Fan Binbing came to this, Chen Nuo would think of her graceful and beautiful appearance on the Golden Horse Awards podium, and then he would feel something special.

But now is really not the right time. Chen Nuo glanced at Liu Yifei, who was sitting in the middle of the bed, watching TV seriously, and said lightly: "Binbing, Happy New Year, I wish you good luck in the Year of the Ox, keep up the good work, and win more awards this year."

Fan Binbing was quiet for a moment, then asked cautiously, "Are your uncle and aunt next to you?"

"Haha, thank you. They are in Xichuan. I thank you on their behalf."

"That's Janice Man? That's impossible! You and Yifei are together? Hahaha, hehe."

Chen Nuo couldn't help it. "Okay, thank you. Please also wish my uncle and aunt a happy new year. That's it. Happy New Year. I'm hanging up now."

Fan Binbing smiled and said, "Okay, Happy New Year, Mr. Chen! It seems that I don't need to spend the holiday with you on the phone tonight. Bye." Chen Nuo hung up the phone seriously, and then sent a text message with four words: "Wait for my news."

After a while, Fan Binbing replied: "I can't wait, I miss you so much."

To be honest, sending this kind of text messages to Fan Binbing is much more interesting than sending New Year's greetings. If Feng Junhao hadn't called him suddenly, he really wouldn't have been willing to continue sending New Year's greetings.

No matter how great the Republic of Korea is on this planet, it still has to celebrate the Chinese New Year.

On the phone, after Bong Joon-ho wished Chen Nuo a Happy New Year, he excitedly told him a piece of breaking news about this year's Cannes Film Festival.

It is said that this time the Cannes organizing committee intends to invite Lee Chang-dong to be the chairman of the jury.

Bong Joon-ho said excitedly that if that were the case, there would be no doubt that the chances of "Mother" would increase greatly, and it seemed that God was helping them.

Chen Nuo was also very happy to hear the news.

Indeed, everyone in the world knows Koreans. They are completely different from that pretentious guy Wang Mojing. They are famous for being fair and just.

Chen Nuo firmly believes that they will never favor their own people in any competition, nor will they open any backdoors for their own films to win the Palme d'Or.

As for him, his relationship with Director Li was not that good, and it was not to the point of cutting off the chicken head and burning yellow paper. So, he should not be too happy too soon.

However, it should be okay to laugh for a while.

Liu Yifei was watching TV. When she heard his laughter, she turned around and asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Chen Nuo, what are you laughing at?"

When Chen Nuo told her about the matter, the girl suddenly became happy, "So, you really have a chance to win the Best Actor Award at the Cannes Film Festival this time?"

Chen Nuo thought about it and said, "It's not that simple. But if this news is true, the chances are indeed a little bit greater."

Liu Yifei was surprised and asked, "Why? When we were filming The Whisper of the Wind, Director Li and his team came from Korea to visit the set. I felt that they had a very good relationship with you."

Alas, this silly girl, it's really pitiful that she has never been to Cannes. Chen Nuo explained to Liu Yifei that the so-called jury chairman is not omnipotent. It's just that when the situation is deadlocked, it may have a little advantage.

This is very rare in the competition for international film awards such as Cannes.

But in the end, it all depends on the quality of the film itself. It’s just that the possibility of him being stabbed behind the scenes is smaller.

Liu Yifei seemed to understand what was said, but suddenly she chuckled, then turned around and started watching Mao Amin sing.

"What are you laughing at?" Chen Nuo asked puzzledly.

"I'm just laughing, what's it to you?" Liu Yifei didn't turn around, so Chen Nuo couldn't see the blush on her face, and it was even more impossible for him to guess how childish her thoughts were.

But after a while, Liu Yifei didn't look back, but just said casually: "Chen Nuo, I think you should be able to do it. Regardless of whether Director Li will be a judge or not, I think you will have no problem."

Chen Nuo laughed and said, "Why are you so confident in me? Don't you know how I performed this time?"

Although I haven't seen it, I know you must have performed very well because you are the best actor I have ever seen.

Liu Yifei didn't say this to anyone because it sounded too corny.

Especially her thoughts suddenly spread in the darkness and returned to the scene of yesterday's filming.

To be honest, she was a little unconscious when she let go of his hand.

The first time in her life that she had intimate contact with a man, the excitement that followed caught her off guard. The gaze she made with Chen Nuo made her deeply immersed in the scene.

In other words, she brought that scene into her life as Liu Yifei.

She was so overwhelmed with passion that she couldn't help but give her all to the man beside her.

And what about him?

Later, Liu Yifei recalled that his expression was just as it was written in the script, "With a look of pity and heartache for Jingqiu, Lao San retracted his hand."

When Liu Yifei watched the replay on the monitor, she felt that Chen Nuo looked exactly like that at the time. No more, no less, no more, no less.

It really makes people feel that it was because of Jingqiu's obstruction that he came to his senses, remembered his illness, and gave up on going further.

Apparently, he had been touching her for so long that she couldn't stand it anymore, but he still remained calm.

More importantly, according to the script, when Chen Nuo withdrew his hand and covered her with the quilt again, she should have said her lines.

But she was so nervous and shy at that time, her mind was a mess, how could she remember any lines?
This scene, which was a perfect performance intentionally or unintentionally, was about to be ruined by her own hands.

Then at this time.

Chen Nuo said an impromptu line that was not in the script at all. With a particularly gentle look, he whispered, "Jingqiu, sleep well."

After hearing the voice of Jingqiu, she came back to her senses and said what she should say.

It was just a little bit and the scene would be over.

It's too risky.

If it is rescued later, the effect will definitely not be as good as the original.

No wonder director Zhang Yimou toasted him with a glass of wine for his impromptu performance during dinner today.

Liu Yifei was watching TV, thinking about all sorts of things in her mind, while listening to Chen Nuo talking on the phone.

This should be a call with his parents. So, he is speaking Xichuan dialect. But, huh, Xichuan dialect, so what? I can understand it anyway.

Ah, what language is this? Oh, Korean. It should be the sister his parents adopted from Korea. Tsk, the tone of her voice is really fierce, as if she is so great. It's so miserable to be his sister.

Who is it now? Wen Yongshan? No, not really. The tone of voice doesn't sound like it. Yuanyuan...who is Yuanyuan? When did he meet another girl named Yuanyuan? Humph, this man knows so many girls.

This time it should be Janice Man, who spoke so gently. It was completely different from talking to me. Hmm, did they really break up? Not at all.

Then why did Xiaoshan say that they had broken up? Is that true?
After the call ended, although Liu Yifei wanted to continue watching the show and ignore him, she couldn't help it in the end. She left Huang Hong who was performing a skit on TV and turned around to say a few words to him.

As a result, I saw that this person still didn't put down his phone. He lowered his head again and sent text messages with both hands.

Although this is the case during the Chinese New Year, it seems like there is endless things to do in one night. Isn’t that too much?

Liu Yifei was already feeling a little uncomfortable for some unknown reason, and at this moment she couldn't control her anger.

Although she and Chen Nuo shared the same quilt before, they had never interfered with each other.

But now, Liu Yifei couldn't help it anymore. She stretched out her foot and kicked forward in the quilt, and shouted, "Hey, let me ask you a question."

Liu Yifei originally just wanted to kick him lightly, but she didn't control the distance well, and felt that her foot kicked something that felt a little strange. It was soft, but not too soft.

After Chen Nuo hung up the call with Wen Yongshan, he received a text message from Fan Binbing and was replying at that time.

Miss Fan's text message was so pornographic and violent that he couldn't help imagining all kinds of scenes in his mind. It was really exciting, but he was suddenly kicked in the most exciting place.

Anyone who has tried it knows what it feels like to be kicked unexpectedly when it's neither hard nor hard.

Not to mention being scared to death, at least within ten seconds, you will definitely see golden light and feel weak all over.

Chen Nuo only had time to let out a scream of "Ah" before he covered his crotch with both hands and shrank up.

Liu Yifei was frightened by Chen Nuo's exaggerated reaction.

"Ah. What happened? What happened... I, I, where did I kick?"

She subconsciously reached into the quilt, wanting to rub the place where she kicked.

But unfortunately, Brother Nuo was well prepared and covered his hands tightly, so she didn't take advantage of him.

After Liu Yifei's action was blocked, she realized what she was going to touch.

What was that soft yet hard thing she kicked before?

Liu Yifei's face turned red all of a sudden. She almost wanted to find a hole to crawl into. She said shyly and stammered, "Chen Chen Chen... Chen Nuo, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. Are you okay?"

Chen Nuo covered his crotch with his hands, raised his head, stared at her and said, "What do you want to do? Are you here to help Zhang Yiyi get revenge?"

Liu Yifei didn't understand at first.

Afterwards, Chen Nuo recovered and told her in a gruff manner what happened between him and Zhang Yiyi at the gate of the Film Academy. She laughed as she listened and thought it was funnier than Huang Hong's skits on TV.

"What happened? Director Zhang forgave you and even invited you to film a movie?"

Chen Nuo nodded and said, "Yes. He is a very generous man. Speaking of which, at that time, I was a little...not normal, so I overreacted."

This is how Chen Nuo evaluated the first few months of his rebirth: not quite normal.

I am very confused about what kind of life I will live in the future. I want to change, but I don’t know where to start. I am fighting with myself almost every day. When it comes to the outside world, I either overreact to the people and things around me, or I am a little dull.

Liu Yifei looked at Chen Nuo, and suddenly a surge of emotion surged in her heart, causing her to say involuntarily: "If I had known you at that time, it would have been great."

Chen Nuo chuckled: "What were you doing at that time?"

Liu Yifei thought for a moment and said, "I should be in Hong Kong. I was filming a movie directed by Chu Yen-ping at the time. It was released in Hong Kong in December 04, and I was promoting it there."

Chen Nuo said, "Yes, you were promoting in Hong Kong at the time, and I was still pretending to be deaf and dumb in the alleys of Beijing. Why do you want to know me? To have a big star fall in love with me?"

Liu Yifei was stunned for a moment, her face slightly hot, and she said angrily: "What, what about falling in love with you. Chen Nuo, keep talking nonsense."

Chen Nuo was surprised and said, "I was just joking. Why are you so angry? You may be young, but you have a bad temper."

"Who told you to talk nonsense?"

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything. I got kicked for no reason, so I can't even say anything, right?"

"So, are you feeling better now?"

Liu Yifei glanced at him secretly. Chen Nuo pulled up the quilt that he had kicked off and covered his lower body. He said unhappily, "Pay attention to your sight. Don't look where you shouldn't. Do you understand?"

"What's so great about that, huh."

Liu Yifei suddenly blinked her eyes, pretending not to be nervous at all, and asked the question that had been lingering in her mind for a long time: "By the way, Chen Nuo, are you and Xiao Shan still in a relationship now?"

Chen Nuo was stunned and was about to answer.

Suddenly, a deafening burst of firecrackers rang out from outside the window, interrupting his words.

At the same time, fifty Olympic champions on TV came on stage and, together with the hosts Dong Qing and Zhu Jun, who were dressed in their best clothes, began to count down in unison: "Ten, nine, eight, seven..."

Amid the booming sound of firecrackers that were lit in advance outside the window, the "three, two, one" on TV ended, and the sound of everyone congratulating each other for the New Year was heard in unison.

In 2009, the fifth year after Chen Nuo's rebirth, arrived so punctually and suddenly.

The sound of firecrackers outside the window seemed to have reached a new level, being set off in all directions, so dense that it was almost impossible to hear the words spoken face to face. Indeed, in the suburban villages of the small town in 2009, it was natural that every household would set off firecrackers.

Therefore, Chen Nuo didn't even hear what Liu Yifei said to him at the first second of the New Year of 2009.

Her face seemed to be covered with a thin layer of pink, her lips moved slightly, and she spoke very softly, which felt a little longer than "Happy New Year".

But Chen Nuo didn't care. He took a deep breath, knowing that from this day on, he had officially entered a new stage since his rebirth.

The next ten years will be his golden period to make a fresh start and show his talents.

What can he, ten years later, say to himself now who is in a small hotel in the countryside of Yichang, Hubei?

Is it the high-spirited boasting or the tearful admission of bad luck?

It all starts tomorrow.
