Chapter 214 Perfect Curtain Call

Chapter 214 Perfect Curtain Call
Although the plot of this children's play is simple and easy to understand.

But Lee Dong-hui and Park Bo-gum in the audience felt like fools, engrossed in watching a children's play...

on the stage.

Congcong, played by Jin Qixuan, teaches Benben the truth and life skills day and night.

And Benben, played by Lee Ji-eun, takes care of Congcong with simple emotions, clumsily and sincerely.

Although a lot of ridiculous things happened in the process, the hearts of the two "dogs" were closely connected.

Benben and Congcong both have flaws, but they rely on each other and complement each other. You are my hand and I am your brain.

No blood relationship, but closer than family.

"Spring goes and autumn comes, cold comes and summer comes."

"Benben and Congcong have relied on each other for several years..."

Liu Renna's gentle voice made the scene on the stage even more cozy, and warmed the hearts of the audience.

Then, the story came to a turning point.

Dog paddling competitions are organized in the forest, and the winner will receive enough food to last for two months.

Congcong signed up Benben for the program, hoping to save him from the pain of going out to find food in the winter.

Before the game, Congcong kept cheering Benben on, and Benben also said seriously that he would definitely win.

Soon, the game begins.

Benben was leading the way in the river, but when it was about to reach the end, it stopped.

"Swim! Why don't you swim anymore?!"

Congcong shouted anxiously in the wheelchair.

"That's how my mom lied to me... She told me to wait for her in the river, but I waited for a long time and she didn't come back... I was scared, I was scared... When I reached the end, my brother wouldn't be there either..."

……

Originally in Kim Ki-hyeon's performance design, Lee Ji-eun's explanation was supposed to be crying.

When you say the second sentence, you should have tears in your eyes, and the tears can not fall until you finish the last sentence.

This kind of progressive tears of grievance can convey the audience's emotions better than howling.

Maybe her emotions weren't brewing enough, or maybe she was thinking about the New Year's Eve dinner, anyway, Li Zhien didn't cry...

Children's plays are also stage plays. There is no such thing as NG. It is what it is performed as.

But after all, this kind of performance by the Disabled Persons’ Federation is not very formal, so some small mistakes are not a big deal.

Jin Qixuan saw that her little face became a little anxious, so he shook his head slightly and waved to her.

"Come here, brother."

Lee Ji-eun knelt in front of Kim Ki-hyeon and rested her head on his knees in shame.

Jin Qixuan lowered his head, raised his hand and gently stroked her head, and said softly:

"Brother will not leave you, don't be afraid. We will definitely win the championship in the next competition. Come on, go home with brother."

"woo woo woo woo……"

After being aroused by Kim Ki-hyun's emotions, Lee Ji-eun's tears came late.

When Li Zhien cried, many people in the audience instantly had tears in their eyes.

Although they didn't win any rewards in this competition, they became closer to each other.

But at this time, Benben's mother felt very regretful after hearing this and wanted to take Benben back to her side.

When she saw Benben going out to find food and take care of Congcong in the cold winter, she became more determined to bring Benben back home.

Congcong holds strong hostility towards the mother who abandoned Benben, and denounces her for abandoning Benben.

"You are trying to prevent us from recognizing each other just because you want it to take care of your daily life, right?"

"If it follows you, it will suffer; but if it follows me, it will receive meticulous care!"

"How long are you going to take advantage of us, Stupid!"

Congcong was speechless after hearing what Benben’s mother said.

When Benben saw his mother yelling at Congcong, he angrily drove his mother away.

That night.

Congcong looked at his stupid mother who was wandering outside the cave and couldn't help but sigh.

After hesitating for a long time, he said to Benben:

"Stupid, you should go home with your mother."

Benben shook his head, lay on Congcong's legs, raised his little face and smiled innocently, and said naively:
"I won't leave. Mom has other children, but you only have me. You can't survive without me."

Even though he was extremely reluctant, Congcong finally hardened his heart, pushed it away, cursed it a few words, and told it to go away.

After being scolded like this, Benben was stunned. After a long while, he timidly said:

"No, you can't go anywhere without me pushing your wheelchair."

"Oh, I'm just lame, not that I can't move my hands."

Benben bit his lower lip and frowned:

"Winter, winter, if I don't hold you, you will freeze to death!"

Cong Cong sneered:
"That's ridiculous. Don't I have hair? I have as much hair as you do. Don't think too highly of yourself."

At this time, Li Zhien cried out loudly with tears in her big eyes:
"You said we would never be apart!"

"I was kidding you, stupid dog."

After saying this, Jin Qixuan turned his wheelchair and slowly moved to the stage with his back to Li Zhien.

Just then, a cry came from behind Jin Qixuan.

"elder brother!"

"You...don't want to be stupid anymore?"

Hearing Li Zhien's choked cry, Jin Qixuan paused, his nose felt sore, and his eyes instantly turned red.

But he still did not answer. He slowly turned his wheelchair and left the home that had carried their laughter and joy for many years.

At this time, the lights on the stage dimmed and a spotlight shone on Lee Ji-eun's head.

Jin Qixuan turned his head and saw Li Zhien squatting on the ground with her hands on her legs, crying with her head up.

Congcong left, and Benben was forced to follow his mother back to the strange home.

The new family environment made it extremely uncomfortable.

His younger brothers and sisters disliked it because it was dirty and stupid, and wouldn't let it get close to them. They always blamed it for any broken things.

Until one day when it was snowing heavily, the younger brother and sister teamed up to lock Benben outside.

Driven by his subconscious mind, the shivering Benben returned to the home where he and Congcong lived together.

When he arrived at the door, Benben's eyes lit up.

It opened the door expectantly.

But what came into view was an empty room with spider webs in the corners.

Benben called twice at the door and went in to look for Congcong, but he didn't find Congcong. He only saw the dusty straw mat that they had used to lay under them when they curled up together to sleep.

It stopped, stared at the straw mat, and slowly lay down on it.

"elder brother……"

A few simple lines and sobs that grow from weak to strong touch the softest part of people's hearts time and time again, moving the audience deeply.

At this point, the stage play was nearing its end.

Benben’s mother searched for Benben all night and brought it back home.

From then on, Benben became silent and there was no expression on his face, as if he had lost his passion for life.

But it wasn't until the following year when the forest held another dog paddling swimming competition that Benben suddenly became excited.

It wants to go, it must go, it wants to see Congcong there.

Because Congcong said that he must win the championship next year.

Benben’s mother couldn’t persuade it, so she had to sign it up.

In the blink of an eye, the game is about to begin.

The other dogs were warming up, but Benben was the only one looking around, as if he was looking for someone.

Just then, the lights on the stage dimmed.

A spotlight shone on Jin Qixuan's head in the corner of the stage.

"Squeak."

With a slight sound, the door opened.

Congcong turned his wheelchair and left his new cave.

It knows that Benben participated in the swimming competition, and it wants to go see Benben!

At this moment, a burst of tense and rapid music sounded.

Congcong stepped over the slope, crossed the stream, and turned his wheelchair hard on the bumpy road.

However, just when it was so close to its destination, the wheelchair overturned because it hit a rock.

Congcong fell heavily to the ground, struggled for a few times, but was unable to get up.

At this time, the three little bad dogs that it had teased before appeared in front of it and said in a sarcastic tone:
"Hey, I wonder who it is, isn't this the smart one who claims to be the wisest in the forest?" "Where's your stupid dog? Why is it gone?"

Facing the sarcasm and ridicule from the little bad dog, Congcong tried hard to raise his head. His breathing was rapid and trembling, and one could hear the sound of his teeth chattering because of the pain.

"please……"

"Please, help me..."

Congcong's voice no longer had the same high-spirited and arrogant tone as before, but was now filled with a hoarse tone of crying.

It reached out and grabbed the little bad dog's trouser legs, begging humbly: "Take me to the swimming competition..."

At this time, the spotlight above Jin Qixuan's head went out.

The light once again focused on Lee Ji-eun in the center of the stage.

The whistle sounded and the swimming competition began.

Benben is still the same as before, the dog leading the way.

However, halfway through the swim, it stopped and turned its head to look somewhere.

Seeing this, Benben's mother shouted from the sidelines:
"Don't be afraid, Benben! Mom is here! Mom hasn't left!"

However, Benben did not look at her, his eyes kept wandering around the sidelines.

At this time, the sound of wheels rolling was heard.

The spotlight shone on Jin Qixuan's head again.

The little bad dog pushed Congcong's wheelchair and slowly drove into the venue.

Benben looked at the familiar figure, opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything.

It wasn't until Congcong came to it that Benben vented all his grievances:

"You, why did you come just now!"

Congcong smiled and said, "There was a little accident on the way."

“I didn’t win the championship again this year.”

“It will definitely be possible next year.”

"I want to go with you..."

"Then why are you still standing there? Come home with me."

When he heard “Follow brother home” again, Benben burst into tears of joy.

It knelt in front of Congcong, rested its head on Congcong's knees, and cried "woooo woooo".

And Congcong was still the same as before, rubbing its head lovingly and comforting it with words.

Then, the lights on the stage gradually dimmed, and a burst of light music and Liu Renna's narration sounded:

"At the end of the story, Congcong and Benben live together again."

"Although they will still face many problems and will not say anything grandiose, as long as they stay by each other's side, need each other, and support each other, that's enough."

As the words fell, the lights on the stage came on again.

Kim Ki-hyun, Lee Ji-eun, Bae Suzy, and the children who performed in the show bowed to the audience.

"Clap clap clap..."

The audience in the audience applauded sincerely, marveling at this delicate and heartwarming story.

It is easy for people to cry because of separation of life and death, but it is difficult to cry because of a happy reunion.

But this children's play did it.

With the bond between suffering brothers, the kinship that transcends blood ties, and Jin Qixuan's outstanding performance, they successfully moved the audience and left a happy ending.

The applause from the audience became more and more enthusiastic, and the originally sparse applause gathered into a torrent of sound.

At this time, Lee Dong-hui and Park Bo-gum in a corner of the audience burst into tears.

After all, they are professional actors with strong empathy and can easily get into the plot.

Li Donghui wiped his tears and said:

"Didn't you say you were here to see him make a fool of himself? Why did you end up crying? I'm really... convinced."

"Yeah, I didn't expect that he wouldn't ask me to act with him in such a meaningful play."

"Why are you joining in the fun of a young couple's performance? Are you looking for trouble? But to be honest, the plot is really good, and the elf Suzy is really pretty."

As soon as Li Donghui finished speaking, he found that the soft flesh on his waist was pinched by Zheng Haojuan with red eyes.

"hiss……"

Seeing this, Li Donghui had no choice but to put on a smile and beg for mercy.

At the same time, in another corner of the auditorium.

Lu Xiangxiao looked at the curtain gradually drawn down on the stage, thoughtfully.

Then, he turned to the dean and said:
“I think this story is very good.”

“It has both thought-provoking depth and the power to inspire goodness; it shows the hardships of life for people with disabilities without deliberately playing up the pity. It strikes the right balance.”

“If this were to make it to the big screen, it would definitely be a big success.”

"If it's well enough, it can become an actor's masterpiece."

The dean smiled slightly, turned to look at Lu Xiangxiao, and said:
"Why, Director Lu is planning to come out again after 7 years?"

"Don't make fun of me. The one in the wheelchair is Jin Qixuan, right?"

The dean nodded and said, "Yes, IU played the role of Benben."

"Give me his contact information. I want to talk to him in a few days."

"Why don't you go when the person is right in front of you?"

"I have to go home for the New Year's Eve dinner, so there's no need to rush."

"Too."

……

The stage performance ended and the group returned to the backstage.

As soon as she entered the room, Liu Renna held three bouquets of flowers, cheered with a smile, and handed them to the three people in turn.

"Jie Eun acted so well, my eyes got red when I was dubbing in the back."

"Hehe~"

After being sweet and intimate with Yoo In Na, Lee Ji-eun tilted her chin towards Kim Ki-hyeon, and her smug little expression clearly indicated: Praise me now!

Although Lee Ji-eun's performance just now had some minor flaws, it was not serious and deserves 80 points.

Jin Qixuan did not discourage her, but gave her a thumbs up in encouragement.

After chatting for a while, everyone packed up their things and prepared to leave.

After saying goodbye to Liu Inna, Bae Suzy, Park Bo Gum and others at the door, Kim Ki-hyeon drove Lee Ji-eun home.

On the way, Li Zhien asked:

"How many days off do you have for the New Year?"

"Three days. The crew will start filming on the fourth day of the New Year."

"So what are you doing these three days?"

"Visiting and giving gifts."

"Oh……"

Jin Qixuan glanced at her quickly and asked:

"What do you want to say?"
