Li Tingyi opened the door gently, and through the light in the corridor, she saw He Meitian lying on the bed. She breathed a sigh of relief, endured her physical discomfort, tiptoed in, and finally touched the bed. As I lay down, I heard something coming from beside me.
"came back!"
Li Tingyi was so frightened that she almost jumped up. She looked back at He Meitian. The lamp turned on and He Meitian was sitting on the bedside looking at her.
"Why are you not sleeping yet!"
Li Tingyi was like a child who had done something wrong and was caught. She turned her head and did not dare to look at He Meitian.
"How can I sleep if you don't come back?"
When Li Tingyi sneaked out just now, He Meitian had already woken up, and he knew where she had gone without guessing.
He Meitian had no way to interfere with Li Tingyi's choice. She originally wanted to pretend she didn't know anything, but in the end she still couldn't overcome the hurdle in her heart.
She regards Li Tingyi as a friend and doesn't want her to regret her current behavior in the future.
Now it seems like it's too late.
"Aren't you afraid of regrets in the future?"
Li Tingyi smiled lightly without any bitterness: "I'm just afraid of regretting in the future, so I don't want to leave any regrets."
He Meitian frowned when he heard this: "Do you know what you are talking about? You don't want to leave any regrets? Do you think the decision you made when you were drunk was the right one?"
"Sister Tiantian, can you stop being so calm?"
Li Tingyi suddenly raised her voice, and then she realized something was wrong. She tried to calm down and lowered her voice. It was already so late, and she didn't want to wake up everyone on the crew.
"How do you think I would have had such courage if I hadn't been drunk?"
He Meitian was stunned for a moment, and then understood that Li Tingyi was not impulsive, but...
It was already planned!
No wonder.
These days, Li Tingyi is often alone in a daze. She originally thought that the filming was about to be completed, but she felt reluctant to give up. Unexpectedly, she was preparing to make such a big move.
"Is this what you want? No results, just hand yourself over in a daze?"
He Meitian really couldn't understand it.
Li Tingyi smiled and raised her head to prevent the tears that had filled her eyes from falling.
"Yeah! This is what I want, I just want to hold on to all the precious things, even just a little bit."
He Meitian frowned when she heard this: "Tingyi, you..."
"Sister Tiantian, I am different from you. You have lived in a normal family since you were a child. Your parents will pamper you like a little princess. The whole world is full of goodwill towards you."
Who said that?
He Meitian smiled bitterly when she heard this. She rarely talked about her own affairs with others. Although her native family did not cause her much pain, it was by no means as beautiful as Li Tingyi said.
She was born in a poor mountain village in Guangdong. Because there were many children in the family and the living conditions were poor, even the food she ate was rationed.
Her parents are very kind to every child. It can be seen from her name that she is beautiful and sweet. Her parents hope that her life will always be good.
However, because of this, her parents couldn't bear to see her suffer. When she was 5 years old, they almost gave her away to a family with good family conditions but no children.
Fortunately, a distant uncle came to visit at that time. The uncle was a gymnastics coach in the city. He heard that her parents were giving her away, so he proposed to take her to learn gymnastics, and the team could provide food and accommodation.
This is how He Meitian practiced gymnastics, and later joined the provincial team and the national team. When she was 16 years old, she had no choice but to retire due to serious injuries.
Later, TVB came to the team to select actors and accidentally selected He Meitian, who was already an assistant coach, and thus started his acting career.
When her parents wanted to give her away, He Meitian had already remembered the incident and knew everything. However, she did not resent her parents. After all, it was a helpless act to keep her alive.
He Meitian has always felt that the hard days in her childhood tempered her and gave her the courage to face all the setbacks in life.
I even think everyone should be like this.
However, after listening to Li Tingyi's experience, I realized that not everyone's suffering can be a motivation for their future life. What some people have experienced requires a lifetime of healing.
"My parents divorced when I was young, and then they started their own families. No one wanted me to be a dragster. When I was a child, I grew up with my grandma."
"At that time, I always thought that if I behaved better, my parents would love me. But it wasn't until I grew up that I realized that I would always be a drag on their family and a stain on their lives. I'm still alive and I'm a constant reminder of their failed marriage."
"Later, when I became an actor and could make money, they were willing to come to me. Even if every time they come to me, they always ask for money, but I still hope that they can remember me. Only then can I feel Yes, I am also needed."
At this point, I couldn't control my tears anymore.
"I gave them money, just hoping they would treat me better. Even if it was just a pretense, I would do it. They took all the income they had before the age of 18. When they grew up, they treated me with every remuneration. Find me as soon as possible."
"A few days ago, they kept calling me. My father told me that my younger brother was going to study abroad. My mother told me that my younger sister wanted to study piano. As a sister, I should help them."
Li Tingyi's face was filled with a bitter smile, mixed with tears, which made He Meitian feel distressed.
She now understood that Li Tingyi was like a person drowning in an emotional whirlpool. As long as she had a little kindness, she would desperately want to grab it.
Even if the person who appeared next to her was not Zhang Chu, it would be the same if it were someone else.
She needs to be loved so much.
Even a little bit of love will be regarded as a treasure by her.
She wanted to piece together the things that were once missing so that her emotions would not have nowhere to rest on.
For this reason, he does not hesitate to do things that others think are crazy.
"Are you going to laugh at me for being stupid?"
He Meitian came over and hugged Li Tingyi.
"Not now and never in the future. No matter what happens, you can always tell me that we are best friends."
Love and friendship on the crew are not reliable. After a drama is completed, many people will choose not to interact with each other anymore, but He Meitian is reluctant to eliminate this distressed girl from his life.
"real?"
"Of course it's true, or are you unwilling to be friends with me?"
Li Tingyi said hurriedly: "Of course not, of course not, I'm just... I'm afraid it will cause trouble for you."
Her past life experiences have made her particularly low self-esteem, and she is always afraid of becoming a drag on others.
"How could it be! I'm very happy to have such a good friend like you!"
He Meitian smiled and tried her best to warm the other person.
What she has experienced is that it is hard to imagine that there are parents who do not love their children and only regard their children as cash cows, but now she has indeed encountered it.
Not all people deserve to be called parents.
"Tingyi, you have to live for yourself in the future. Since you can't get anything even if you pray for it, don't force it. You have to think about yourself. Some people just appear in your life. Since everything left behind is for you. Don’t pay attention to the traces of your injuries.”
In fact, Li Tingyi has long understood that her parents have never loved her. If she is just an ordinary girl now, maybe they still can't remember that they have such a daughter.
"I was too stupid before. I always felt that as long as I can do better, they will recognize me, accept me, and treat me as family. From now on, I will not be stupid anymore, you said That’s right, some people really don’t deserve my attention.”
It would be nice if she could figure it out. He Meitian is really afraid that Li Tingyi will continue to be stupid and her family will suck her blood, and in the end she will be left with nothing.
This kind of thing is not uncommon in the entertainment industry, but He Meitian only knew her brothers and sisters, and Li Tingyi was hurt even more because it came from her parents who were supposed to love her the most.
"You and Zhang Chu..."
"Sweet!"
Li Tingyi interrupted He Meitian's words.
"We have no results."
After going crazy, Li Tingyi also completely understood that being together does not just require emotional dedication. There are also many practical problems involved.
One is in the mainland and the other is in Treasure Island. It is not easy to meet each other. What will happen next?
He Meitian said nothing more, but hugged Li Tingyi tighter.
"You will meet better people in the future."
Li Tingyi said nothing. Now she just wants to remember everything that happened in the crew for more than three months, as well as every bit of Zhang Chu.
The next day, Li Tingyi packed her things and left the guest house with He Meitian. They were going to fly to Xiangjiang together, and then transfer back to Treasure Island.
"Aren't you going to say goodbye?"
When he was about to get in the car, He Meitian suddenly asked.
Li Tingyi was stunned for a moment, then shook her head: "No, this... is already good!"
After saying that, he got into the taxi.
All the way to the airport, when passing through the security check, Li Tingyi accidentally saw a person standing not far away and was stunned.
"Tingyi, let's go!"
He Meitian urged, and when she saw Li Tingyi still standing motionless, she followed her gaze.
"Zhang Chu!"
A smile suddenly broke out on Li Tingyi's face, and she raised her arms and waved vigorously.
Zhang Chu didn't come close, he just stood there and waved.
The two people looked at each other. After a while, it was not until the airport security staff urged her that she pulled He Meitian and turned around and walked in.
"Don't you want to say goodbye?"
Li Tingyi smiled and shook her head: "No, this is the best goodbye."
After watching Li Tingyi leave and disappearing, Zhang Chu left the airport, stood outside, lit a cigarette, and watched a plane soar into the sky.
