The moonlight fell into the deep water, making no sound.
His name is Chen Wangshu, the name of the moon god, but it is like an inexhaustible fire. The youngest actor, his body is angular and every word is thorny. He never bends down on the awards stage and never shows weakness in front of the camera. Everyone in the circle said that anyone who ran into this fire would have a layer of skin burned off - except that person.
Shen Yun, who reached the top one step ahead of him, is like a pool of autumn water with no bottom, always smiling and always calm. The media wrote that he was "as gentle as jade", and his peers praised him as "having a deep chest", but only Chen Wangshu knew how many silent knives were hidden under that elegant skin. Every time we are on the same stage, Shen Yun always steals the applause from the audience at the most unexpected moment; every time she is interviewed, Shen Yun always has the ability to drive nails into his bones one by one with the most considerate tone.
"Wang Shu," Shen Yun tilted her head slightly in front of the camera, and the ends of her eyes curved just right, "I have talent, but my temper is worse than my acting skills."
The trophy in Chen Wangshu's hand hit the table hard.
From the day Chen Wangshu first appeared on the screen, their names have been nailed together - competing for dramas, competing for prizes, competing to see who gets red-eyed first, who loses his grace first. Fans of the two families have exchanged curses in the air thousands of times. When the feud is brought up at a drinking party in the industry, they always pick up their glasses and shake their heads with a smile: Those two are destined to be in conflict and explode when they meet.
Everyone thinks they are incompatible enemies, and no one knows what kind of secret pull is hidden in the dark. Chen Wangshu remembers the arc of every micro-expression of Shen Yun, and remembers which of his words are genuine smiles and which are fake. Shen Yun is familiar with the smallest flaws in each of Chen Wangshu's plays, and is also familiar with his stubbornness when his eyes are red.
They looked at each other from afar across the crowd - one's eyes were burning, the other's eyes were watery. No one is willing to speak first, no one is willing to bow first, as if whoever admits defeat first will lose all the pride in this long confrontation.
But the countless moments when they passed by each other, the momentary pause when their sleeves touched each other, the panic when they accidentally looked away and then looked away hastily, all their worries have been shaken off. They use the sharpest words as armor and the quietest contests as shields, just to hide the inexplicable things in their hearts.
The whole world thinks they are fighting to the death.
Only they themselves know - that thorn has long been pierced into the softest part of the other person's heart. It is pierced too deep and cannot be pulled out, and they are reluctant to pull it out.
