Synopsis
Qiao Zaoyao is a falling star in the entertainment industry. Three months ago, she was still a hot and talented little girl, and the hot searches were all about #acting# #announcement#. But overnight, everything turned upside down. The opponent spent a lot of money, and a huge amount of black material was thrown down. # Bring money into the group to grab roles# # The financial backer supports us# # All the awards were bought# Several genuine and fake screenshots were viewed by marketing accounts tens of thousands of times. The most unsavory hot search was on the list for three days, with a dazzling word "explosion" following the entry. The agent asked Qiao Yao to stop surfing the Internet. Qiao Zaoyao didn't listen. She lay under the quilt at three o'clock in the middle of the night and scrolled through her phone, reading the comments one by one. Some scolded her harshly, some "revealed the news" with certainty, and some were former fans of Qiao Zaoyao, claiming that they had "lost their fandom" and "judged the wrong person." Qiao Zaoyao turned the screen of her phone to the darkest setting and bit her lower lip. Tears flowed down silently, soaking a large area of the pillow. The next day, three endorsements were gone. On the third day, the filming crew informed Qiao Zaoyao to take a "temporary break." On the fourth day, Qiao Zaoyao covered all the mirrors in the apartment with cloth. The days became very long, so long that Qiao Zaoyao didn't know how to fill them up. During the day, Qiao would sit on the sofa in a daze, with the curtains always closed and the TV always on mute. At night, Qiao Zaoyao would occasionally drink one bottle after another until he felt dizzy and double vision appeared in front of his eyes. Then he fell asleep on the sofa and continued drinking when he woke up. It rained again in the evening. Qiao Zaoyao walked back with a dozen beers bought from the convenience store. The rain became heavier and heavier, making Qiao Zaoyao unable to open his eyes. When passing the flower bed in the community, I tripped on the steps, threw myself forward, and ran into a cold embrace. The moment he looked up, Qiao Zaoyao thought he was hallucinating while drunk. The person in front of me is too good-looking to be true. His skin was white and transparent, his eyebrows were as clean as if they had been washed with water, his light-colored eyes were looking at Qiao Zaoyao steadily, with a faint smile on his lips. But the rain passed straight through Yu Feizhou's body and dripped on the ground. Yu Feizhou's whole body was light and airy, like a mist that could disperse at any time. "Can you see me?" Qiao Zaoyao was half sober from wine. She reached out to touch Yu Feizhou's face, and her fingertips felt cool as they passed through the air. Qiao Zaoyao was so frightened that she fell into the rose bush and her palms were pricked by flower thorns and bled. Yu Feizhou squatted down and pulled out the thorn from Qiao Zaoyao. His fingertips hung above Qiao Zaoyao's palm, and the wound healed on its own. Yu Feizhou claimed that his name was Yu Feizhou and that he could not remember anything. When he woke up, he was in this community and no one could see Yu Feizhou. Qiao Zaoyao didn't know why he made that decision. Maybe it's because he's too lonely, or maybe it's because a person who's not even afraid of ghosts has nothing to lose. Qiao Zaoyao took Yu Feizhou home. What happened next was like a dream. Yu Feizhu accompanied Qiao Zaoyao through the darkest part of the road, breathed a breath into Qiao Zaoyao's dead pot of green radish and brought it back to life. During Qiao Zaoyao's sleepless nights, he sat by the bed and told some unfunny jokes. When Qiao Zaoyao received the first new script, he smiled and said, "Go ahead, you can act well." Qiao Zaoyao stood up again from the third-tier bastard that everyone shouted at, climbed back to the first-tier step by step, won the top spot, and stood on the podium that everyone thought Qiao Zaoyao would never be able to stand on. Qiao Zaoyao thought that life would continue like this. But on the day when Qiao Zaoyao's career was at its peak, Qiao Zaoyao went home and opened the bedroom door and found that the bed was empty, the sofa was empty, and the pot of pothos sat quietly on the coffee table with green leaves. Qiao Zaoyao searched every corner and called Yu Feizhou's name countless times. Yu FeiZi disappeared. Just like when Yu Feizi came, it was silent. Later, Qiao Zaoyao stood at the highest point and looked down. Below were countless flashing lights and cheers. Qiao Zaoyao held the trophy in his hand, and the cold metal touched the palm of his hand, just like the fingertips of a ghost hanging above Qiao Zaoyao's palm on that rainy night many years ago. She suddenly remembered what Yu Feizhou said. "It's early, it's early, the fog disappears before dawn." It turned out that Yu Feizhou had told Qiao Zaoyao from the beginning. Qiao Zaoyao has been looking for him for many years. During filming, I searched every corner of every city and asked everyone I met if they had seen a good-looking young man with fair skin and light eyes. Everyone thought Qiao Zaoyao was crazy and looking for someone who didn't exist all over the world. The media said that Qiao Zaoyao had a mental problem. Fans cried and begged Qiao Zaoyao to see a doctor, but Qiao Zaoyao refused to listen. Later, Qiao Zaoyao dreamed of Yu FeiZi. She was extremely pleasantly surprised, but Yu Feizhou said with a cold face, "Zao Yao, stop looking for me, live a good life." Qiao Zaoyao didn't want to, so she never dreamed about Yu Feizhou again. Qiao Zaoyao was so horrified that he stopped looking for Yu Feizhou. Instead, he built a tombstone for Yu Feizhou and continued his normal life. But what others don't know is that in the next year, Qiao Zaoyao will go to see Yu Feizhou. Until one winter, on the way Qiao Zaoyao was holding a bouquet of roses to meet Yu Feizi, the brakes of a truck failed. At this point, a generation of top-notch people came to an end. Intention: love to face all difficulties
