Do it again

The look in Tang Wei's eyes is a highlight of Lust Caution. When she was a student, her eyes drifted away. Her father left with her younger brother, leaving her alone, and then marrying again. These all have traces in her eyes, as if she is not in the world, as if she has seen everything, and as if she is shallowly hating someone. In fact, she is not patriotic because she is patriotic, but just because she follows her heart. She saw Kwong Yumin, so she followed him to join the drama club, followed him to join the naive assassinations (especially when practicing shooting on the beach, some of them said that if you don't assassinate, school will start). When she stood on the stage and was shouted "Wang Jiazhi" by five other people and turned her head back, the drama of her life began. She was out of novelty, some responsibility, impulse, some hesitation, but she still stretched out her hand.

At first, Mr. Yi gave people the feeling of being mysterious and inaccessible. At the same time, Mrs. Mai was also thinking about acting to complete the task. But since he gave her an umbrella in the rain, there was something between them. She started acting not only for the mission, but also for herself. When playing cards, he kept feeding her cards, and even the careless Mrs. Yi could see the clues. While she was writing down the phone number, he pretended to eat pastries and jot down the phone number. Before this, the two people had only short eyes and simple greetings, but she was here for him, she knew.

After trying the cheongsam, we had dinner together. This was the only scene where Tony was allowed to discharge in the whole show. Mr. Yi also said the only slightly humorous sentence in the overall situation, "There are few people here, because the food here is not delicious". Then he said he was afraid of the dark and everyone he knew was afraid, but there was no fear in her eyes. The final result of the film also proved this point. There is no fear in her heart. She loves what she loves, believes in her belief, and there is nothing terrible to die. I was thinking that the reason why she didn't take the poison after the accident was not only because she didn't want to leave her other classmates alone, but also because there was such a fearless shadow in her soul.

When she received a call from Mrs. Yi that they were going back to Shanghai, her eyes were filled with infinite disappointment. She thought that if he called again, he would be serious. But because of their departure, there is no way to prove this. And she practiced so hard to lose her body, so she later told Kwong Yumin that I was stupid.

After the murder, everyone was deeply irritated, especially Wang Jiazhi himself. She spent the next three years in numbness. Here again, she has to talk about the look in her eyes. When queuing to buy rice, her eyes were so dull and dull. Her father abandoned her and left her under the fence. There was poverty and desolation all over her eyes. Except for the feeling of life in school and movie theater, all other parts of her were dead. So when Kwong Yumin found her again, she agreed without hesitation.

Mr. Yi went home and went upstairs and heard the long-lost voice. He walked to the card table and saw her. He was actually smiling lightly in his heart. The sentence "It's good if people come back" has expressed to the greatest extent that he sees her again. Her joy.

For the first tryst, he kept sitting behind the curtain watching him. She wanted to control the initiative, walked over, threw away the cigarette in his mouth, clamped his raised Erlang legs, and then said, pain, hair, gently press him to sit down, and then walked to the distance to take off the stockings. He is not a person who can be manipulated. He rushed to grab his hair, banged her against the wall, and tore off her cheongsam. Ang Li said that he wondered why Tony hit Tang Wei so hard. Tony explained that she now doesn't have the feeling of having dinner with him three years ago, and she feels quite angry at that kind of loss. So he treated her cruelly. When she turned to look at him, he still couldn't bear her resentment and questioning eyes, and pressed her head back vigorously. Afterwards, he sat aside smoking a cigarette, then threw her her trench coat, and she remained motionless.

From the first time to the third time, she went from being completely passive to having considerable initiative. She hates him, her only weapon is to torture him with sex and exhaust him, at the price of tolerating him to drill into her heart like a snake. When she murmured nervously to Kwong Yumin, when Yi gave her the smell of a woman in her bedroom, she was already lost in her role. This is the request of the organization to her. Forget Wang Jiazhi and concentrate on being Mrs. Mai. She did it and betrayed her original self.

Tang Wei said that this ending was actually very happy, and he died in the hands of the one he loved with his first love. I have been wondering whether Mr. Yi loves Wang Jiazhi. Wang Jiazhi's own understanding is love. Many people (especially Westerners) understand that he does not love, otherwise he would not sign her to die. I can't guess Li Ang's understanding, because he is a man, Ai Ling's understanding is the biggest question throughout her life. Does Hu Lancheng love her?
