Chapter 281 "The Melting Pot" (1)
The male protagonist's voice became softer, and he hesitated to talk about the reasons for breaking up, which were nothing more than "I don't deserve you" and "You deserve better".
The heroine looked at him in disbelief, quickly covered her ears, and once again escaped to the bathroom on the pretext of touching up her makeup, trying to escape reality.
When she came out, the restaurant, which had been repaired for a long time, finally regained its lighting. The heroine moved over in small steps, but suddenly she found a guide stick next to the hero's hand.
She was stunned, and cautiously stretched out her hand to sweep in front of her lover's eyes.
The hero showed no reaction.
The heroine covered her mouth with all her strength and did not cry.
The hero waited for a while, thinking that the sad heroine had completely left, sighed sadly, and said a series of monologues.
The heroine stood beside him, shedding tears and listening quietly.
"I hope...she can meet someone better." The blind male protagonist smiled bitterly and reached out to touch the guide stick.
Choking, the heroine changed her voice and asked him: "Sir, do you need any help?"
"Oh? Oh, thank you..."
The male protagonist was stunned for a moment, then forced a smile and said, "I'm sorry, please help me."
The heroine held the hand waving in the air uncomfortably, and the two of them walked slowly until the hero got into a taxi.
As the car drove away, the love affair ended.
…
The fourth group failed to get a better score.
"What we are doing is a film and television production, not a student drama."
Yue Yang really got it right. This live performance was an expansion of the campus drama. Time was tight and the actors were busy, so the screenwriter had no choice but to come up with something like this, trying to be clever and get through.
Overall, this performance was passable and even outstanding in a school club, but on this stage it was just average.
No need for the judges to say much, the members of the fourth group already knew what they were doing.
After all, the opening scene is "Family", followed by "The Wrong" and "Silver Dragon", both of which are of extremely high quality. I really didn't prepare enough to watch them.
Despite being embarrassed, the actors who already had offers were a little lucky.
Fortunately, I have found a job. I don’t have to worry about finding a job for a short period of time, which is not bad.
The judges could naturally see their little thoughts and didn't say much, allowing these people to step down.
“The second group will then present their work to everyone.”
Lin Yuqin brought the topic back easily, "It seems that our judges and teachers are also looking forward to it."
"The second group has no director, screenwriter Yuan Xiao, actors Qin Jue, Zhan Changqing, Yu Qing..."
After the introduction of the members, the lights dimmed again, and a video began to play on the big screen.
Da da da.
Wearing a suit and her hair tied up, the mature and capable Zhao Wanxuan stepped on high heels and opened the door holding a document bag.
"Old Liang——"
She put the file on the locker next to the door and bent down to take off her shoes.
The room was quiet, no one answered.
"Huh? This person..."
Zhao Wanxuan took off her shoes and walked forward doubtfully.
The camera follows her perspective, showing the audience the structure and furnishings of the home.
The honorary certificates placed on the bookcase and the banners hanging on the wall all imply that the couple's work is related to law, and that the two have outstanding professional abilities and are quite popular.
Zhao Wanxuan opened the door of the study room. There was still no one in the room, but there was a delicate envelope on the table with the words "My beloved wife, Zhao Wanxuan, accept it."
She pursed her lips and smiled, carefully opened the envelope, and said angrily: "You are still doing this kind of trick."
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Wanxuan returned to the bedroom, changed out of her suit, and picked up an exquisite dress. The content of her husband Liang Chenglei's letter was shown through voice-over:
"To my wife:
"It has been a year since we got married. We are both legal workers, rational and rational, but also cold. We have known each other and have never quarreled, let alone a cold war. Although our feelings are not exposed, they are becoming more and more intense. Tomorrow It’s your wedding anniversary and I wonder if I can make an appointment with you at the Luhuayuan Restaurant..."
Liang Chenglei's voice is a bit deep, his words are precise, and his serious tone dilutes some of the sweetness of love, but unexpectedly makes this character three-dimensional.
A former judge who is old-fashioned but very affectionate, and a lawyer who seems cold and capable, but still has the delicate feeling of a little woman, the image of this couple instantly becomes fuller.
The audience gradually became interested.
With a soft "pop" sound, the earring in Zhao Wanxuan's hand fell to the ground. She frowned in annoyance, pulled the hem of her skirt and squatted down to look for it.
Unexpectedly, when I squatted down, I accidentally discovered that the length of the drawer was wrong. I tentatively reached out to touch it and directly touched a mezzanine.
As a lawyer, Zhao Wanxuan had an instinctive reaction to such discoveries, and immediately put the earrings aside. After several attempts, she successfully took out a document from the gap in the mezzanine.
That's a sentencing report.
"Insanity, disabled people commit crimes..."
Zhao Wanxuan murmured, her delicately made-up face sometimes showing a look of discomfort due to the content.
The scene gradually changed as she whispered, and a calm female voice sounded:
"Recently, a case occurred in Xinhua Deaf Children's Welfare Home. A deaf-mute young man killed 24 children in the same hospital with a knife, ranging in age from 8 to 16 years old.
"The next day, the young man continued to commit crimes, killing eight nursing staff and volunteers in the welfare home. That night, the director of the welfare home who returned from an outing was also brutally murdered.
"After investigation, it was found that the man suffered from a mental illness. Because of the seriousness of the situation and the great harm to society, he had far exceeded the standard line for penalty reduction and exemption for mental illness and disabled people. The court finally sentenced..."
"Who knows, that person must be a lunatic!"
The passer-by looked at him with a respectful distance, and shuddered and said, "He even dug out his heart! Oh my God, this is going to be punished!"
"Oh, are you talking about that case a few years ago? It was really scary."
The young man dressed as a college student said with lingering fear, "I heard that the disabled man dug out the hearts of other deaf-mute orphans, put them in plastic lunch boxes and buried them in the yard. It seems that he even chopped the dean into pieces... Uh-huh, Dismemberment and mutilation, no wonder he was sentenced to death."
"What? It's so rare that someone actually comes to ask this..."
The old man on the street lit a cigarette and smiled with a nonchalant "haha", his cloudy eyes full of emotion.
"They don't know, they don't know."
He blew out the smoke and said in a hoarse voice, "Those children are really having a hard time...nursing staff, dean? Haha, yes, you really should! You bastard, you should have died long ago!"
"Ah Qin did a good job! He did a good job!"
As he spoke, the uncle's eyes turned red.
The screen shook again, and the voices of middle-aged men and women alternated:
"Comrade reporter, don't listen to his nonsense."
"This is all a matter of old sesame and rotten millet. The old man has a bad memory."
"That's right, don't take it seriously."
"Please don't take pictures, thank you, thank you."
During the filming, which was obviously blocked by people, the scene suddenly disappeared accompanied by the noisy wind.
The lights on the stage turned on softly.
Like the fourth group, this is also a restaurant, with three words written in exquisite fonts on the sign, "Luhuayuan".
Zhao Wanxuan appeared on the side of the stage in a formal dress.
