If he continued to be an extra, he might achieve nothing in the future and continue to be mediocre for the rest of his life. Between going out to find a job, finding a suitable job, and taking on the responsibility of supporting his family, he had to make a choice.
If it was in the past, Lin Xi would definitely choose to be an extra without hesitation. If he met a discerning director, he would become famous overnight and reach the peak of his life.
But now, after experiencing the beatings of real society, the balance in Lin Xi's heart began to tilt crazily toward finding a job and taking on the responsibility of supporting his family.
Lin Xi's family conditions were actually quite good.
His parents were both employed, and the two of them had saved up some money. When Lin Xi was in university, they even bought a wedding house for him for his marriage. Even if Lin Xi insisted on his dream, the old couple would have enough pension after retirement and could take care of themselves.
However, what about Lin Xi himself?
After he graduated from university, he had been playing an extra because of his dream. At first, they were all dead bodies that disappeared in a few seconds. Later on, he finally had lines, but they were all unimportant small roles. It could be said that there was no highlight at all.
Lin Xi was already twenty-five or twenty-six years old and had already missed the golden period. Even if he continued to play an extra, he would not be able to compete with those children. It could be said that his future could be seen at a glance.
However, Lin Xi really liked acting, and he really could not bear to give it up. Therefore, he gave the choice of this decision to Cheng Nuannuan.
Cheng Nuannuan watched Lin Xi act as a young master who only had a five-minute scene and a few lines before entering the industry.
In Cheng Nuannuan's words, it was ten thousand years.
At that time, the female lead was clearly a popular movie queen, and the male lead was a well-known handsome man. However, she had taken a fancy to an inconspicuous supporting role like Lin Xi.
This was probably what true love was like.
Therefore, after Lin Xi really wanted to leave the industry, Cheng Nuannuan immediately tried to persuade him to stay. She even sent Lin Xi a thousand-word letter.
Lin Xi was not particularly determined to give up his acting career, but after being persuaded by Cheng Nuannuan, he stayed again.
However, after this incident, Lin Xi really had a good impression of Cheng Nuannuan.
The two of them also communicated more and more every day.
However, when you get used to someone, you won't be far from falling in love with them.
Cheng Nuannuan was Lin Xi's die-hard fan. Naturally, she replied to his messages instantly with an extremely good attitude.
To put it bluntly, he was a bit of a bootlicker.
And Lin Xi, a depressed little actor, was so sincerely liked by such a little girl, it would be a lie to say that he was not moved.
One really liked him, while the other was really touched. Just like that, the two of them started an online relationship.
Cheng Nuannuan knew what Lin Xi looked like, but Lin Xi did not know what Cheng Nuannuan looked like at all. Even though Lin Xi had promised Cheng Nuannuan more than once that he was not a person who only looked at appearances, Cheng Nuannuan still expressed that she would not show Lin Xi her photos because of various reasons.
Fortunately, Lin Xi's curiosity was not particularly strong, and he was very certain that he liked Xiang Nuannuan as a person and not her appearance, so he did not continue to ask.
The two of them have been in an online relationship for about half a year. During this period, Lin Xi received a rather important role as the fifth male lead. Although it was not very popular, it had gained ten to twenty thousand more fans. It could be said that it was a small success.
The first thing Lin Xi did after getting her pay was to buy a ring for Cheng Nuannuan. She wanted to make a promise to Cheng Nuannuan.
And when Cheng Nuannuan saw that Lin Xi was still willing to continue being with her even after he had become a little famous, she agreed to meet Lin Xi.
The two of them agreed on the time to meet, the clothes to wear when they met, and the secret signal. Then, they waited silently for the day to come.
This was the saying that fate made a fool of people.
When Cheng Nuannuan was crossing the road, she was hit by a car that ran the red light and died on the spot.
Clearly, happiness was already within her reach, but because she ran the red light, she lost the happiness that belonged to her. Cheng Nuannuan felt so wronged that she was about to die.
Cheng Nuannuan hoped that Jiujiu could make Lin Xi her husband.
Jiujiu promised Cheng Nuannuan. Cheng Nuannuan smiled with satisfaction, then turned into stars and disappeared into Jiujiu's sea of consciousness.
When Jiujiu opened her eyes, there was a boundless white in front of her. Her eyes rolled unconsciously, and she smelled the pungent smell of disinfectant.
Jiujiu wanted to raise her arms, but her hands were as heavy as lead. Jiujiu shook her stiff neck and realized that both of her arms were in plaster.
She lowered her head slightly and saw that one of her legs was also in plaster. It could be said that it was very tragic.
Just a while after Jiujiu opened her eyes, a woman in her fifties walked in. When she saw that Jiujiu had woken up, she was stunned for a moment. Then, she smiled and asked, "You're awake. How do you feel now? Do you want to eat something? What do you want to eat? I'll buy it for you. "
Jiujiu looked at the middle-aged woman in front of her and asked, "Who are you?"
Only then did the middle-aged woman remember that Jiujiu had just woken up, so she quickly introduced herself. "Hello, I'm the caretaker your parents hired. You can call me Aunt Li."
The words' the caretaker your parents hired 'gave Jiujiu a headache.
Jiujiu raised her hand and rubbed her temples. She looked at Aunt Li, who was standing in front of her, and dug out information about Cheng Nuannuan's parents from her memory.
Cheng Nuannuan's parents divorced when she was eight years old because of differences in personality. After that, the two of them started a new family.
In the beginning, Cheng Nuannuan's grandparents were willing to take care of her. However, when Cheng Nuannuan's father's son was born, Cheng Nuannuan's grandparents shifted their attention to the newborn brother. Once again, Cheng Nuannuan became a child without anyone to take care of her.
Cheng Nuannuan was already sensitive because of her parents' divorce. After she started boarding in junior high school, she tried her best not to go home if she could.
Later on, Cheng Nuannuan's parents tacitly agreed that Cheng Nuannuan was living alone outside. The love they gave Cheng Nuannuan was probably the money they sent to her every month.
Jiujiu looked at Aunt Li and asked, "Where are my parents?"
Aunt Li said, "They're busy with work. They left when they saw that you didn't wake up."
This was indeed something that the couple could tell.
Jiujiu nodded and did not say anything else.
Eight out of ten adults would not be able to withstand such an injury. However, other than being a little confused when she first woke up, Jiujiu was very calm the rest of the time. In fact, she was so calm that she did not seem like a child.
Aunt Li could not help but look at Jiujiu again and asked, "Erm, do you want to eat something?"
