Problematic Little Sister Fell In Love With Me-Chapter 472: Fickle Love
In fact, Mu Rui must be feeling guilty, because she had said a lot of bad things about me without any basis, and they were all overheard by me. Maybe it was not that she accepted my apology, but was embarrassed to say anything to me.
Sure enough, Wu Lefeng didn't seem to mind it. Instead, he, who was a star, lowered himself and reminded me not to forget to go to the agreed meeting place after the movie one more time. He still insisted on inviting me to have dinner with him.
I didn't know if he really expected me to expose his secret to the public, but I knew that I would never do that.
I had no other intentions, I just felt that I had no obligation to help him.
There were only Liusu, Dong Xiaoye, and me, three people in the luxurious little VIP room. But Liusu was no longer interested in watching a movie at this time. She was telling Dong Xiaoye about everything she overheard excitedly. If someone happened to pass by outside the door and heard Dong Xiaoye's weird screaming, 80% of them would think that we were watching a horror movie no less scary than "Midnight Ring".
The hot conversation between the two girls made me, who was quite disdainful of Hu Yan's movies, patiently enjoy this "Fickle Love". I thought it was another incomprehensible dark humorous drama, but I didn't expect that I would be quickly attracted by the smooth and funny plot. Another reason that attracted me was that the background of the story was surprisingly similar to my actual situation.
The story was about the entangled love between a man and three women.
The story began with a hilarious scene: On the bleak and quiet street, a group of debt-collecting gangsters suddenly appeared. The sudden change from quiet to dynamic had heralded the comedic tone of this film, and Hu Yan used black and white pictures to reflect the desolation and beauty of the street.
The fight had no sound, and the atmosphere was completely reflected by the characters' simple yet exaggerated actions. The scene only showed the fists waving and falling in front of the poignant background picture, as well as the exaggerated amount of blood that splashed out with the shoes and the word 'ah', which represented the screams.
At this moment, a dejected young man holding a cardboard box appeared in the distance. The young man seemed to have just been fired from his job. When he turned his head curiously, the camera gave him a close-up, and revealed that there were words 'cowardly and incompetent' written on his left cheek, 'depsreation and hopeless' written his right cheek, and 'please let me die' written on his forehead.
Then as if he was trying to get himself killed, he rushed towards the gangsters, wanting to argue with them. Of course, it was still a silent scene, and the audience could only see a few hands pushing him away from time to time. He was scared, but he still wanted to argue with them; so in the end...
The bloody scene just now repeated, and he was also pressed to the ground and beaten up by those gangsters.
This kind of cartoonistic way of telling the story was hilarious. The gangsters eventually left after spitting on the two pitiful guys on the ground. The debtor said in tears to express his gratitude to the unemployed good man, but the unemployed good man said, "I wasn't able to stop them." The debtor then said, 'At least you helped me to take half of their punches'. Seeing these funny cartoon subtitles, I almost laughed.
The debtor then told the unemployed good man that he bought the lottery with the money he borrowed, dreaming of becoming a millionaire overnight. This seemed to be foolish and funny, but it was also a contemplative topic. Anyway, to thank the Mr. Nice Guy for saving his life, the debtor then gave Mr. Nice Guy a lottery ticket.
The following pilot was even more clichéd. With that lottery ticket, Mr. Nice Guy won a 10 million prize and became a rich man overnight. After he became rich, he set up a company, bought a villa, and drove a famous car to pick up beauties. Abandoning his wife who always stayed with him when he was poor, he kept three young and beautiful mistresses. In the end, he was defrauded of all his money by those three women. Overnight, his company went bankrupt and he returned to poverty at the beginning. He began to work hard every day again, the difference this time was that when he went home every night, there was no one to cook for him and support him silently. Before he died of illness, he called his son to his side. Only then, did the movie start to have sound.
"When you have it all, but you still want more, that's greed. When you lose everything, you should know that the only people who you shouldn't abandon are those who leave you when you have everything. Remember, good people will eventually be rewarded, and being greedy will only hurt you."
The boy nodded as if he understood what his father said, and asked, "Dad, what do you want to eat?"
"Porridge," the old Mr. Nice Guy closed his eyes and thought for a while, then smiled weakly and nostalgically: " The cabbage porridge made by your mother..." He closed his eyes again, and even though he couldn't drink the cabbage porridge, the incomparable satisfaction was left on his face forever.
For the first time, I felt that Hu Yan's movie wasn't that incomprehensible. It was just that we didn't know how to understand or how to express ourselves. For example, this shot itself was very philosophical.
The boy in front of the hospital bed grew up to be the protagonist played by Wu Lefeng. The story began with his father's funny and sad teachings.
The unlucky white-collar worker played by Wu Lefeng was a timid but warm-hearted person, who always remembered his father's teachings. Whenever he saw injustice, he would come forward bravely. Even if people scolded him for being meddlesome, and even if he was beaten up by other people, he still firmly believed that he who was doing good deeds would be rewarded. As for women, he wholeheartedly loved the beautiful girlfriend he has been dating since college. He believed that the greatest happiness in life was to eat cabbage porridge with his girlfriend every day.
The way the optimistic white-collar worker treated women was also very funny. He regarded all the opposite sexes except his girlfriend as dangerous as snakes and scorpions, thinking that they would ruin his own life. But destiny liked to make fun of him. On the day when he bought a diamond ring and planned to propose to his girlfriend, the female lead played by Tong Feifei - the daughter of a rich family- appeared. This girl was not happy about the marriage that her father arranged for her, so she ran away from home. When she was wandering on the streets in despair, she happened to encounter the nice guy white-collar worker, so she tricked him into inviting her to live in her house. After she found out that he was working for her father's company, she threatened him with his job and asked him to be her fake fiance.
Knowing that she had found such a useless fiance, her father was very angry. In order to ruin this fake relationship, her father and the future son-in-law decided by her father hired a former special agent who claimed to be more professional than Mata Hari at a high price. And this special agent was the second female lead played by Mu Rui. While persuading the female lead, she tried to seduce the white-collar worker, intending to expose his true nature in front of the female lead.
The funny thing was that the 'former special agent' had actually never worked as a special agent before. She was just an impostor like her father, John Watson (I guessed the name was fake too), who also happened to be her assistant. Those two people treated the female lead's father as an easy target, and they took up the job purely for money. What was even funnier was that this female impostor was actually an old classmate of the white-collar woker's fiancée. In order to successfully seduce the white-collar worker, she often asked her old classmate how to seduce men. Naturally, her old classmate wouldn't know anything about it, but it didn't stop her old classmate from teaching her the experiences she learned from dating her boyfriend.
And so the comedy began. In this way, this white-collar worker was almost troubled by the three women every day, living a miserable life. My laughter almost never stopped. This movie was even comparable to the comedy movies made by Stephen Chow.
The white-collar woker's love for his girlfriend never changed, but gradually, he was still attracted by the first female lead who was pretending to be a strong woman and the kind-hearted female imposter. And these two girls also gradually fell in love with him in the process of teasing him.
The ending of the story was no longer funny. With the persuasion and encouragement of the white-collar worker, the female lead and her father made up, but the relationship between him and the three girls was also revealed to the public. His girlfriend left him in anger, and the female imposter left him because she didn't want to put him in a difficult position. In terms of the female lead, she was still lost, not knowing how to face her true feelings. The son-in-law decided by the female lead's father also chose to give up and told the female lead with a smile that she already understood what love was, and now she should learn how to love...
How to love? This was more than just a problem that the people in the movie had to face.
Outside the movie, I was also asking myself: Liusu, Mo Fei, Ziyuan... Chu Nan, how similar is your situation to that of the white-collar worker in the movie? He is already at a loss, but what about you?
