I'm not Yingjie

"I think it's more surprising that you agreed to act together." Mobius, who had returned to his original childish appearance, sat in the back seat of Mei's car, rubbing his smooth forearms with his fingers with great interest.

Mei, who has been trained in bickering for a long time, is not willing to be outdone: "Aren't you the same?"

"Short films like this..." Kosmo, who was also sitting in the second row, hesitated and wanted to say something, but when he saw that Grayshu was still looking normal and innocent beside him, he shook his head and said nothing.

Such a short film would have a bad influence on Graceau... He wanted to say this, but seeing that Graceau seemed to be able to tell the difference, he didn't bother to say it.

"Ah? I was originally going to have a role? Oh no, it was the Conductor's role, right?" After a brief silence, the bewildered Expert Wilwei leaned back in her chair, "But Alicia did ask me to make something interesting, but the Conductor didn't use it."

Kevin and Su did not participate in their discussion, but just sat in the last row chatting with each other. The same went for Hua and Pado. Pado was holding those old game cartridges excitedly, while Hua just quietly looked at the cast list of the short film.

"Aili, is this okay..." Eden, who was sitting on the other side of Alicia, took a sip of the strong wine without saying a word, and asked Alicia.

"Hmm? My good Eden, what are you talking about?"

"Why does it have to be Lin? According to your original script, the plot shouldn't be like this."

"Maybe it's because..." Alicia lowered her head, not knowing what was going on. "A story always has a protagonist, but Lin has never been the protagonist in a beautiful story."

Eden said nothing, his lips touching the rim of the cup.

"By the way, are there three people missing?"

Mei looked back and found that three people seemed to be missing.

……

"Lin, don't you care?"

"What do you care about?"

"Alisa's script..."

"It's okay, just one of her many jokes."

Lin picked up the Fire Moth badge on the ground. It was an extremely rare misprinted badge with the burning moth printed on both sides. But coincidentally, the emblem printed on the back was the golden seal that should have appeared after the Fire Moth had been in the badge for twenty-five years.

Alicia mentioned it to him and made a bet that she would definitely get it, but what she didn't expect was that the badge Lin got after the super transformation surgery happened to be this unique wrong version, and he won the bet in advance.

It was a coincidence, just like his life and their lives.

Ying stood behind him, looking at his back hesitantly. Perhaps she was overthinking it, because this man was still exceptionally calm and didn't show too much emotion.

In the darkness, Aponia also watched him stroking the badge in silence.

"She used to look for novels I'd read, some boring stuff that was just to kill time, but she probably wrote them down and made this cheesy script, even with a clichéd happy ending..."

Lin's fingers gently pressed the buckle on his neck and he took off the helmet with a click. He turned around and looked at the people who had come behind him at some point.

“But I don’t hate it.”

He curled up the corners of his mouth and smiled at the world.

Christmas Special Highlights

"Lin, you today..."

Klein stood on tiptoe, but the folding fan in his hand still couldn't reach the table.

Lin looked at Wei Erwei who was holding the camera, and at her signal, he tied the wire-hanging machine to Klein.

"..."

"..."

“I’ll go back to work after I finish my next scene,” Klein said after a moment of silence. “I don’t want to see how it turns out.”

……

"Senior Alicia..." Lin read the script.

"Pfft..." The pink-haired girl covered her mouth and laughed.

Under Lin's calm gaze, Alysia adjusted her state and said seriously: "Ahem... continue."

"Senior Alicia..."

“Pfft… Hahahahaha, I can’t stand it anymore…” Alicia rolled on the ground holding her stomach with laughter, “Lin, you’re so cute when you speak your lines so seriously while only wearing a mask.”

"..."

"Can I kiss you?"

"No."

……

"Is it still possible to do this?" Mebius looked down at his body which had become somewhat unfamiliar to him. It had been a long time since he had this perspective that did not require him to look up too much.

"..."

"Haha, I see you seem very excited."

"..." Lin glanced at the evil smile on her face and said lightly, "No."

In terms of excitement, she, a marginal person who rarely participates, is more active than him, of course she herself will not admit it.

"Was the scene afterwards real or fake?" Mebius asked suddenly, looking down at the personal script in his hand.

"…What is true or false?"

Lin frowned. Isn't it just acting? Why would you ask whether it's true or not?

"Humph, do you think this trick will scare me... Even if it's true..."

Lin grabbed the script and glanced at the plot about Mebius at the back, and after a moment's silence, he handed his to Mebius.

"..."

After seeing the plot arrangement that was completely different from her own, Mebius' smile froze on her mature face.

After taking a deep breath, Mebius put down the script and looked fiercely at the calm Lin, with a fierce look on his face: "You are not serious, are you?"

"No."

……

"Oh!"

Qianjie kicked the door into pieces, rushed in, and shouted angrily:

"Everyone, get out of here!"

Ai Lishiya held her forehead and stood up from under the bed: "Qianjie, you need to be gentler and not be so rude."

"Heh, his brain probably can't hold so many things." Mebius stopped acting and sneered disdainfully.

"Humph! Why are you so particular? Didn't you want me to kick you all out? What, are we going to have a fight next? I'll start with you."

Mei's mouth twitched as she said to Kevin beside her, "I found that Qianjie's ability to play dumb is unexpectedly high."

"He just has no patience." Kevin said calmly, "Oh, go get another cake."

"why?"

"The shell and the rope on my hand were frozen and broken."

……

"Aponya, what are you doing?"

"Lin... this is a rehearsal..."

"...No, there is no such plot at all."

Lin was held in Aponya's arms with an expressionless face. He couldn't breathe because of the posture, and when he tried to break free, he was held tightly.

The feet in black stockings gently stepped on his toes.

"I am going to tell a lie... I am so sorry... Lin..." Aponiya clasped her fingers together, lowered her eyes slightly, and confessed, "Please forgive me..."

"Let me go, Aponya."

"Why did our destinies meet here..."

"Aponia."

"If this is the intertwined thread of fate..."

"..."

……

"Phyllis, are you sure everything is alright?"

Hua looked at the excited Pado with concern. She weighed Pado's small body and thought about how to kick that would look painful but actually not require much force.

"No problem, Ahua, just come and try it." Padu snorted and said, "Remember to give me those games later, hehehe..."

"Why did you arrange this role for us? It's obviously not necessary."

"I remember Sister Ai Li said that if the same plot happens repeatedly, it will reduce the audience's patience and sense of freshness, so let us be the seasoning... Oh, I don't understand it anyway, why don't I just try it in front of the camera?"

"You are really open-minded."

Hua saw Ying pacing back and forth not far away, with an expression that she couldn't understand. She called out in confusion, "Ying?"

"What's wrong?" Sakura stopped and her expression disappeared.

"Nothing, I just thought you seemed a little nervous."

"Yes, yes?"

"Don't be nervous, we're just filming it for ourselves."

"Huh... You're right, it's just a line."

"What line?"

"Nothing, it will be your turn soon, get ready."

……

"Wait a minute, the filming is not finished yet."

After the shout of "click", Lin, who was lying on the ground, opened his eyes and found that everyone else had fled, leaving only Alicia standing there. He raised his eyebrows and stood up.

"Ahem!" Alicia coughed deliberately and said with a smile, "It's finished perfectly. We just have to wait for Wei Erwei to edit it into a film."

"Aren't there still a lot of plots to come?" Lin thought that there were still a lot of lines and plots that had not been performed, but Ai Lishia let them go and did not choose to continue acting.

"Lin, sometimes it's best to stop at the right place."

"...But the current situation is what we generally call an unfinished business."

"Well, to be honest, even I can't act anymore." Alicia smiled slyly, "I think a few people feel the same way."

Lin Shen nodded in agreement: "The lines are indeed a bit awkward."

"So please forgive us for lying."

"It's nothing..."

"Okay, okay, stop talking." Alicia smiled and raised her finger to block Lin's mouth.

"Lin, sometimes, there are some words that can only be said with the help of 'lies'. Some of them are mixed in between 'lies', and some of them claim to be 'lies' themselves."

"But the paradox is that the person who said these words both wants to be noticed and doesn't want to be noticed, because once the meaning is exposed, the liar will have nowhere to hide and no way out."

"Don't you think people like this are cute?"

Lin thought for a few seconds and said puzzledly: "I don't understand."

Are there lies that one both wants to be detected and doesn't want to be detected?

What is the thinking of the person who tells such a lie?

"Then try to think about who told you the truth in this performance, who was vague, and who revealed their true intentions through their lines."

"But I think everyone wouldn't have the heart to lie to you."

Alicia smiled brightly, just like before.
