"Shouldn't we say goodbye now?"
Gu Du said, and seeing that Lu Ban did not respond, he smiled and left the row of seats.
Lu Ban's surroundings immediately quieted down.
He was able to find the time to watch the movie.
From Lu Ban's perspective, the film's premise is full of flaws, contradictions, and ambiguities. The actors' performances are inconsistent, and the plot is even worse, consisting mostly of clichés that were told in Shakespeare's time.
But there are still some bright spots that people will still remember on some afternoon long after they've finished work and are standing by the window in the break room looking at the lush green world outside.
Lu Ban laughed along with the characters in the movie, sometimes falling silent, the light and shadow reflecting on his face in a colorful display.
Is it pretty?
Another voice sounded beside Lu Ban.
He turned his head and saw amber.
Chapter 952 The Curtain Falls
The film's lighting illuminated her face, revealing a slightly indifferent expression.
"Not bad, at least it lets me see this far instead of turning away halfway through."
Lu Ban commented.
"That's good."
Amber responded, but she didn't say much to Lu Ban. Instead, she simply sat next to him and quietly watched the movie.
Often, people don't need many words to connect. Two people doing their own thing, making subtle noises to confirm each other's presence, is enough to make one feel at ease.
For each individual, life is always a solitary adventure, and everyone is just a passerby.
But there will always be some people who can stay with you longer.
"I'm moving forward."
Amber suddenly said.
Lu Ban looked at her, but the girl didn't look this way; she was staring straight at the movie screen.
It's as if, if you look back once, you'll never be able to say goodbye again.
"Ah."
Lu Ban responded.
Amber stood up and slowly walked in the direction she had left. She took two steps, then suddenly stopped, a kind of hesitation lingering over her. But in the end, she clenched her fists and left without looking back.
Lu Ban breathed a sigh of relief.
"This movie is pretty good."
A light and lively voice rang out from the opposite direction from where Amber had gone.
Lu Ban turned his head and saw Leopard squatting on a chair, watching the movie in a rather unseemly posture. Her eyes were shining brightly, like those of a child full of anticipation.
"Only you would watch movies like that."
"What does it matter? As long as I can see good content, it's perfectly fine to watch it lying down, on my stomach, or even while I'm asleep."
"Leopard said dismissively."
How do you check if someone is asleep?
Lu Ban subconsciously asked a question in return.
"Of course we're watching it in a dream. Aren't we in a dream right now?"
"That's perfectly natural," Leopard said.
"Too."
Lu Ban nodded.
"However, next time I need a role with an important part, like the ultimate weapon girl, or a humanoid computer with an angelic heart, who is beautiful, strong, and tragic."
Leopard said, as if eating a peach.
"They have quite a few requirements."
Lu Ban thought about it and agreed.
I'll try my best.
"Great."
As he spoke, Leopard climbed off the chair and stood up.
"I'll be going now, there are several others waiting for you."
She waved and struck a cool pose.
"You finally finished the movie."
The voice came from beside Lu Ban. Feng Yu brushed her loose hair behind her ear, turned her head, and looked at Lu Ban.
"This is all I can do."
Lu Ban chuckled and answered.
"I really want to continue traveling, but it seems that the journey has come to an end here."
Feng Yu sighed.
"It is the end, and also the beginning."
Lu Ban corrected.
"That's true, but I'll have to walk alone from now on."
Feng Yu said, then smiled slightly.
"I wonder if I'll ever meet someone like you again on my journey ahead."
"Then I think it's best to avoid meeting them."
Lu Ban laughed self-deprecatingly.
"That must be... lonely."
Feng Yu sighed.
She stared at the movie screen, composed herself, and finally looked at Lu Ban.
"The movie was very good, and I really wanted to keep watching, but all movies eventually have to end, so let's leave it at that."
She said that the movie screen darkened, and the entire theater fell silent. Even the couple who were whispering sweet nothings to each other were drawn in by the plot and stopped what they were doing.
After a short, somber scene, the scene brightens again, and Feng Yu, who was beside Lu Ban, is no longer there; in her place is a petite girl.
The Gene Era
"So what's the point of my role anyway?!"
Qin Tiantian protested, sounding slightly dissatisfied.
"To lighten the mood?"
Lu Ban said uncertainly.
"Do I not have some hidden identity, such as some blind and foolish god, or is the whole world just a dream of mine?"
Qin Tiantian questioned.
"Wouldn't that be too boring?"
Lu Ban answered in a serious tone.
"You don't have to make every character you play look so tragic and resentful. At least when people see you, they can feel at ease, right?"
"So, you're saying I'm a trap in horror movies used to lower the audience's guard, right?"
Qin Tian was slow to realize it.
"Where did you learn this knowledge?"
Lu Ban frowned.
"Fine, next time you contact me, make sure you arrange a really amazing identity for me, one that's full of twists and turns, dramatic ups and downs, thrilling and epic!"
Qin Tiantian emphasized.
"That's a bit difficult."
Lu Ban stroked his chin.
"I believe you can do it, after all, you're a director!"
Qin Tiantian patted Lu Ban on the shoulder and nodded as if she was very relieved.
Lu Ban wanted to say something more, but she had already disappeared.
"It's almost over."
"really."
Two voices, one from the left and one from the right, rang out from both sides of Lu Ban.
He looked and saw it was Sia and Trist.
"It's time for the main actors to appear."
Lu Ban said.
"Yeah, it's a pity I didn't get to unleash my full power and have a highlight moment in the end."
Drizzt scratched his head.
"We don't need to wear highlights all the time. I think it's just right now."
Xia commented.
"Thank you both for your hard work."
