Perfection

CH extra 3

When Wen Lin woke up from the bed, he had a terrible headache. He opened his eyes and stared for a long time, only to find that he was lying in the Lanlu suite, and from the direction of the bathroom came the sound of water.

His last memory last night was that he had drunk a lot of alcohol, and by the end he was unconscious, and he didn’t remember anything about what happened later, but he remembered that before he drank, he was singing his new single release to Li Rong at the Lanlu’s bar.

It has been two days since his new single was released. It can’t be said that there is no response, but the response was mediocre. Fans expressed their support, but the one who seriously went to listen to the song is probably only his fans.

Wen Lin felt that he might not be able to complete his own album. He wondered if he should be serious about acting. At least his acting skills have been recognized by professionals. If he continues to act, he might be able to make good progress in this industry.

But will he be willing?

Wen Lin sang and played guitar for himself, and when he saw Li Rong coming, he didn’t stop. They didn’t make an appointment, and Wen Lin didn’t know why Li Rong knew he was here.

He didn’t know that Li Rong would show up in the Lanlu, and his appearance wasn’t originally because of Li Rong. Li Rong just came over after knowing Wen Lin was singing in the bar.

Li Rong sat on the sofa, answered a phone call, and told the driver in a flat tone to send away the young girl who had just followed him, then mute the phone and put it on the table, listening carefully to Wen Lin’s singing.

Later, Wen Lin drank too much, and when he woke up lying on the big bed in Li Rong’s usual suite, his eyes opened blankly.

The sound of water in the bathroom stopped, and Wen Lin saw Li Rong coming out from inside wearing a bathrobe. His hair was still moist, and water droplets slid down his handsome side face.

Li Rong’s eyes fell on Wen Lin’s face, then he smiled and walked to the bed to sit down, looked at him and said, “You are awake? “

Wen Lin’s face turned pale, he looked at Li Rong with a dull gaze, and opened his lips and asked, “Did we-“

“Did we what?” Li Rong asked him after Wen Lin didn’t continue speaking for a long time.

Wen Lin couldn’t say it, he closed his lips and pursed it lightly.

Li Rong said, “Are you trying to ask if we slept together last night?”

Wen Lin’s face turned paler.

Li Rong seemed amused, and asked him, “Don’t you feel it in your body?”

Wen Lin said, “I don’t know, I don’t..” He has no experience, he has never slept with a man, nor has he slept with a woman. At this point, his pale face turned a very light red, making him can’t help but pull up the quilt and cover half of his face.

Li Rong quietly stared at him for a while and said, “No, we didn’t do anything. You are so drunk, and I am not a beast.”

Wen Lin breathed a sigh of relief, and his stiff body went soft on the soft mattress as he said to Li Rong, “I’m sorry.”

Li Rong smiled and said, “It’s okay.”

When he came out of the room, the coldness of the mountains in the early morning hit him quite aggressively, causing Wen Lin’s injured leg to sore instantly.

As he descended the steps, his body lurched a little in an unbalanced manner.

Li Rong stretched out his hand to support his arm and asked, “Does your leg still hurt?”

Wen Lin turned his head to look at him, and said, “Usually it doesn’t hurt. It just can’t stand the cold.”

Li Rong suddenly squatted down beside him and pushed his trouser legs up.

Wen Lin was startled, and quickly wanted to retract that leg, but Li Rong held his calf and squeezed it lightly. Wen Lin shuddered in an instant, and subconsciously reached out to hold Li Rong’s shoulders.

There are still traces of surgery on his leg.

Li Rong’s hand stroked those marks, put his trouser legs down after a while, stood up and said, “I’m sorry.”

Wen Lin was silent for a while and said, “It’s none of your business.”

After that incident, Li Rong had broken up with Jiang Yongfei. Most of the time, Wen Lin hardly met Jiang Yongfei in the company, and later he learned that Lu Jinlang had deliberately arranged to prevent them from meeting each other.

Wen Lin couldn’t say who he hated in his heart. After so long, he was even more indifferent. Sometimes he felt like an outsider, watching all this with cold eyes, but never really invested in it. Music is the only thing that occupies the most important position in his heart, but it never fully accepted him.

He squeezed in the cracks, turning himself into a nondescript creature.*

Li Rong asked the driver to send him and Wen Lin down the mountain, and send Wen Lin home first.

Wen Lin still lives in the dormitory arranged by the company. It’s not that he didn’t buy a house because he didn’t have any savings, but because he always considered that if the company refused to release an album for him in the end, he could release an album of his own at his own expense. The money was there and he was reluctant to move, and he didn’t want to buy a house.

The driver took Wen Lin to the gate of his neighbourhood. Wen Lin thanked him and got out of the car.

Li Rong was not in a hurry to urge the driver to leave, so the car stayed where it was. Li Rong kept watching Wen Lin’s back disappear at the gate of the neighbourhood.

His driver is a young man who has always had a good relationship with him. He asked, “Rong ge, are we going?”

Li Rong said, “Let’s go.”

The car drove forward. Li Rong lit a cigarette and lowered the window a little bit. Thin smoke came out of his mouth, drifted along the gap in the window, and was blown away by the cold wind.

The driver looked at him from the rearview mirror and asked curiously, “Are you serious?”

Li Rong seemed to recover from his trance, turning his head to look at his profile, “What?”

The driver said, “About Wen Lin, I think you are very patient with him.”

Li Rong smiled and said, “I like him quite a bit, but I’m afraid it’s not appropriate.”

The driver asked, “Because it’s a man?” In his impression, Li Rong’s official lovers were all women.

Li Rong replied, “Sort of.” There are other things that he didn’t really want to say, and changed the subject not to mention Wen Lin again.

After more than a month, Wen Lin took on a new drama, still a movie, a psychological thriller.

When Wen Lin took the play, Wen Jianing opposed it. In a sense, this movie was similar to the small budget movie Wen Lin had won before. That’s why the director came looking for Wen Lin and hoped he could act.

Wen Jianing knows that Wen Lin’s interest is not in acting, and he doesn’t care if he will be stereotyped by the outside world, but he is very worried that Wen Lin’s psychological state will be affected if he makes this kind of movie again.

On this matter, Lu Jinlang and Wen Jianing have different opinions, because the script and production team of this movie are both good. Compared to finding Wen Lin another idol drama, making another quality movie can consolidate Wen Lin’s position in the circle. In this circle, a good movie can only be found by chance.

Wen Lin talked to Lu Jinlang privately. He hopes to be able to act in this drama. His idea is actually quite simple. He wants to make more money, so that he can earn enough to support his music dream.

After signing the film contract, Wen Lin officially joined the group almost three months later. During this period, he participated in some commercial performances and recorded OSTs for two dramas. At other times, he was bored at home writing songs. He continued to create and constantly revise, but he doesn’t know if these songs will be officially released one day.

He had never seen Li Rong during this period. Sometimes he had the urge to sing a few songs at the Lanlu’s bar, but in the end he stayed at home and did not go out.

In the new movie, Wen Lin plays an important role, but he is not the main protagonist of the movie. The story of the film revolves around the heroine who is in high school, and Wen Lin plays the younger brother of the heroine.

In his twenties, Wen Lin playing as a high school student does not look out of place. According to the director, he is really too clean looking. There is no sophistication on his entire face, and he looks like a teenager who has not yet come out of society.

The actor playing the heroine is a junior student at the Film Academy, whose name is Lu Chunran. This is not Lu Chunran’s first time acting, she had acting experience before entering the film academy. At that time, he was a well-known child star. Because she looks pure and beautiful and her acting skills are also very good, she has gained a lot of popularity.

When Wen Lin saw Lu Chunran himself for the first time, he felt that she was really beautiful, not that bright type of beautiful, but more like a little fairy who was out of mortal world.

Both of them played high school students. Lu Chunran is mostly styled with a white shirt plus a red and black plaid skirt, while Wen Lin is styled with a white shirt plus light brown pants.

The director was very satisfied with the results.

The style of this movie is dark and depressing. Wen Lin and Lu Chunran have a lot of scenes together, but Wen Lin does not have many lines. He had many emotional expressions that needed to be performed by action and demeanor.

Wen Lin is a dedicated person. Even if he doesn’t like acting, as long as he accepts the movie, he will treat it with the most serious attitude. From the day when he got the script, Wen Lin has read it over and over many times, trying to understand and integrate with the character, and enter the atmosphere of the whole movie.

The first scene that Wen Lin joined in the filming was a scene with Lu Chunran.

The two of them were in the same room, both wearing white shirts and school uniforms. Wen Lin was sitting at the desk writing homework, while Lu Chunran was lying on the bed and chatting with people on her mobile phone.

The room was very dark, and there was a poster on the wall, two silhouettes standing back to back, one black and one white. There is a single sofa in the corner against the wall, and a few girls’ clothes are scattered on it.

Lu Chunran sent a message, and when she stopped, she raised her head and said to Wen Lin, “Xiao Long, do you like Wu Anjun?”

Wen Lin stopped writing, raised his head and said, “Generally, I don’t.”

Lu Chunran got down and said, “Oh.”

In the early stage of the filming, there were a lot of endless conversations between the two people.

Halfway through the filming that day, Wen Lin was supposed to be making up his makeup when he heard the set get noisy. His assistant Tang Shao came over and said, “Lu Chunran’s boyfriend has come to visit the set.”

The makeup artist was very curious and asked, “Who is it?”

Tang Shao whispered, “Li Rong.”

Lu Chunran is Li Rong’s new girlfriend, and his girlfriend now is different from his past girlfriends. Most of the actresses he liked in the past were not an innocent type like this.

Li Rong knew that Lu Chunran was making a movie. Originally, the heroine of the play was Lu Chunran competing with another actress. In the end, Lu Chunran was able to get the resources, because of her relationship with Li Rong.

But Li Rong didn’t know that the person who acted with Lu Chunran was Wen Lin.

Wen Lin came out of the dressing room, still in the white shirt, the hem of the shirt was tucked into the waist of the light brown trousers, his waist was very thin. The whole makeup turned him in the direction of youth and purity, and he also used makeup to add some similarity to Lu Chunran’s between his eyebrows, and his eyes were simple and indifferent.

The moment he saw Wen Lin, Li Rong suddenly felt his throat a little dry. He subconsciously took out the cigarette, watching the people coming and going on the set. But since the place was really not suitable for smoking, he silently took it back.

Wen Lin nodded to Li Rong.

Li Rong just nodded.

When Lu Chunran’s scene was over, Li Rong stood up and planned to leave with her. At that time, Wen Lin had to make close-up shots.

Wen Lin’s scene was standing at the door of the room, pushing the door open, only half of his face and one eye were exposed, and all his emotions were on that eye.

Li Rong happened to turn his head towards him. But after a glance, he thought about it for a whole night.

Li Rong was a little absent-minded all night. When Lu Chunran sensed it later, she was a little unhappy, and she didn’t even want to go to Li Rong’s to spend the night. Li Rong did not force her, and asked the driver to send Lu Chunran home.

Since then, Li Rong often visited Lu Chunran.

Xiao Long, played by Wen Lin, is an antisocial teenager. He hardly talks to others, but he treats his sister very well.

They have a stepfather who came back drunk late at night and talked to their mother in the living room.

The siblings were listening with their ears to the door, and then the two outside quarreled. The older sister Gu Ning played by Lu Chunran was shaking unconsciously. Xiao Long would stretch out his hand to hug her and gently pat her back to comfort her.

Li Rong sat beside him, silently watching Wen Lin hug Lu Chunran.

Lu Chunran plays a heavy role, and Wen Lin often needs to wait in the lounge. He can rest and also recite his lines at this time.

On this day, Wen Lin was in the lounge alone, trying to record his humming melody with his mobile phone. Halfway through the recording, Li Rong came in.

Wen Lin was embarrassed to continue and put the phone away.

Li Rong sat down and asked him, “Why don’t you continue?

In fact, Wen Lin and Li Rong are not so close to one another. He knows that Li Rong has ideas about him. He cannot accept Li Rong, but he does not hate Li Rong either.

He even liked Li Rong when he sat down to quietly listen to him sing.

Wen Lin said, “It doesn’t sound good.”

Li Rong asked, “Who said it’s not good?”

Wen Lin thought for a while and replied, “The market says it’s not good.” This answer made him feel a bit cruel to himself.

Li Rong asked, “Who is in the market?”

Wen Lin couldn’t help laughing. He looked at Li Rong and asked curiously, “Li Rong, do you really like listening to my music?”

Li Rong asked, “Have I done anything else to you?”

Wen Lin just lowered his head and smiled without answering. He stood up and wanted to leave the lounge.

Li Rong suddenly grabbed his hand at this moment.

Wen Lin looked down at the hand that was grabbed and looked back towards Li Rong.

Li Rong’s grip was very tight and he had no intention of letting go.

Wen Lin said, “Your girlfriend is outside.”

Li Rong said to him, “That’s not important.”
