Chapter 144 Green Pepper(1/2)
After the filming of "Rose Dawn" ended successfully, Zheng Enlin took the opportunity to take a long vacation.
Before this, the agent was very worried that she would be stuck in a new role and unable to get out. She put her hands together and prayed, but in the end it was of no use.
Less than half a month after the completion of "Rose Dawn", Zheng Enlin began to frequently visit Dr. Jiang's psychological clinic. Before going to bed every night, she had to take medicine to close her eyes.
Although the character Zhao Shanshui in the film is not as miserable as Princess Han and has not suffered any physical harm or violation, she is originally a two-faced character and a born bad person who is incompatible with normal human society. Her soul has long been based on
On the edge of a dangerous cliff, it is easy to self-destruct if you are not careful. As an ordinary 20-generation woman who is completely different from Zhao Shanshui, it is not easy for Zheng Enlin to fully accommodate this character and then completely separate her from her own life.
She also suffered from it.
After going back and forth to Dr. Jiang's clinic several times, Zheng Enlin's condition did not improve much, but there were faint signs of deterioration.
During this period, Zheng Yusheng didn't know where he heard about Zheng Enlin's current situation, and took the initiative to contact her agent to provide help.
Based on the fact that they had just cooperated before, Zheng Yusheng’s reputation in the industry has been very good for many years. The agent actually trusts him. He offered to help, but she didn’t think too much about it, and she was very grateful.
Accepted.
"Onie, I'm back, and I brought you kelp soup from my aunt's house..."
"Oh, Enlin is back."
Recently, because Zheng Enlin's physical condition cannot be called optimistic at all, her agent temporarily moved in with her to take care of her more conveniently.
The girl stood at the entrance, holding the still warm seaweed soup and rice in her hand. She raised her head and glanced at Zheng Yusheng, who was wearing a shirt and jeans and was following behind the manager, and silently turned her questioning eyes to the manager.
"Xi Zheng Yusheng was worried about your situation, so she took the initiative to contact me."
The agent gave a brief explanation and then pulled Zheng Enlin inside.
After the three people walked to the living room, she excused herself to call the director of the company and thoughtfully left a space for the two of them to talk.
"I heard that you are seeing a psychiatrist recently." Before Zheng Enlin could speak, Zheng Yusheng was the first to express concern.
"Is it better?"
"No." Zheng Enlin lowered her head and played with her fingers, and responded very directly.
"I can't sleep well at night, I'm really annoyed."
Zheng Yusheng frowned slightly, and when Zheng Enlin looked up at him, she subconsciously showed a gentle and relieved smile.
"Is there anything I can do?"
"What do you want to do, senior?" Perhaps due to the influence of the character Zhao Shanshui, Zheng Enlin made Zheng Yusheng feel a little paranoid and perverse.
"Senior came to see me today, didn't he just want to help?"
"Yeah." Zheng Yusheng was not angry, and showed a very patient look, "Remember what I told you before on the set, the script is like life, an illusory life, even if you can't get out of it for a while, there will always be a way out.
The day of the impact——" After a two-second pause, Zheng Yusheng added: "I will help you come out."
"Then what?"
"Then you will get better." The man smiled softly, "Start a new life, a life that belongs to you."
"Not your kind?"
"What?" Zheng Yusheng didn't react for a moment.
"My new life...isn't that life without you?"
Zheng Yusheng's smile faltered, "...you didn't have me in your previous life either."
"But now is different from before." The girl seemed to suddenly become stubborn, "Now is different from before, isn't it?"
This time, Zheng Yusheng completely put away the smile on his face.
He was not offended, nor was he angry with Zheng Enlin because of it.
He fully understood the girl's explicit hint at this moment. Although it was sudden, Zheng Yusheng was mentally prepared.
He had already imagined many possible scenarios before coming here. After all... Zheng Enlin is too talented and too young.
She gets hurt too easily.
But he is different.
He has experienced enough and has rich enough experience.
Zheng Enlin has no experience in facing this kind of thing, but he does.
Zheng Yusheng thought that he should help her well and guide her well.
Let girls get back on the right track as soon as possible.
"Enlin, listen to me." Zheng Yusheng sat up straight, clasping his hands on the table, showing a very serious attitude.
"You don't know what you are talking about now, and you don't really understand what you are thinking in your mind, but it doesn't matter, you can..."
"Senior, does he have a girlfriend now?" The girl imitated him, holding her hands and placing them on the table, looking serious.
"If not, can you stay with me?"
"...You are just the empathy of the character now, Enlin."
"I know whether it's empathy or not." The girl looked at him and asked, "Senior, you don't believe what I say, do you?"
Zheng Yusheng didn't answer, he just sighed a little tiredly.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it." Seeing the man's behavior at this moment, Zheng Enlin changed the subject very smartly.
"What have you been doing lately, senior? I'm a little curious, how do you spend your day when you're not filming."
"Well...if I don't have a job, I prefer to stay at home alone, read books and listen to music. Sometimes I will invite friends to go fishing by the river or play golf." When he said this, Zheng Yusheng consciously thought of something.
Not a bad idea.
"You can also try it and try some different entertainment activities to make your daily life richer and easier."
Use real and tangible things to fill your life, which truly belongs to Zheng Enlin's life outside the play.
Zheng Yusheng was expressing this meaning to her.
"Well, I will consider it." Zheng Enlin said.
"But, senior, can you also invite me when you go out with your good friends next time?" The girl raised her eyes and looked at him with a completely undisguised look of expectation.
"Didn't you say you would help me and accompany me out? I trust senior very much."
Having said this, the girl curled up her lips and smiled, with a bright and well-behaved look, without any pretense.
"Heal me, senior——"
"I hope you can cure me."
…
Shortly after leaving Jung Eun-rim's residence, Jung Woo-sung called Lee Jung-jae.
Dinner was served at a high-end Western restaurant in Apgujeong. Jung Woo-sung didn’t drive, so he naturally took Lee Jung-jae’s car home. The two sat in the front seat of the car and chatted very naturally. Lee Jung-jae couldn’t help but
I heard Zheng Enlin’s name from Zheng Yusheng’s mouth.
This was not the first time he heard about Jung Eunlin from his friends. Even Lee Jung Jae knew that Jung Eunlin was in a very bad mental state after the filming of "Rose Dawn" and Zheng Woosung was trying to help.
"What are you going to do next?" Li Zhengzai asked.
"Help her peel the character away."
"How to strip it off? Continue to act with that girl?"
Zheng Yusheng raised his hand and pressed his eyebrows, but said nothing.
"You are going to complete the real-life drama with her. After the performance, can you come out?"
"...I can distinguish between illusion and reality."
"I know." Li Zhengzai, who was holding the steering wheel, glanced at his friend and said, "This is what I'm worried about."
Zheng Enlin can't break away from the movie role. She regards herself as the person in the movie, so she will be affected.
But Zheng Yusheng is different.
He chose to cooperate because he had pity and affection for Zheng Enlin. It was not the character's affection for another virtual character in the play. It was Zheng Yusheng himself who had feelings for Zheng Enlin, so he acted like this and took the initiative to provide help.
"I know what you want to say, Jung Jae."
Zheng Yusheng leaned a little tiredly on the soft seat. He turned his head and looked at the night scene outside the window. There was light coming in from the half-rolled car window. In the half-darkness, the man's mature and handsome face became even more...
It shows two points of dark depth.
There are only 24 hours in a day, and he spends half of the time playing his beloved Jung Eun-rim.
Zheng Yusheng is not an impulsive person.
He has long passed the age where he is easily impulsive and prone to passion. He is rational enough and sober enough, so he has to restrain himself in this kind of rationality and sobriety and admit that——
Zheng Enlin is something special.
That young girl who could inexplicably tug at his emotions from the first time they met.
She is different.
