Chapter 6
Three sentences to make your teammates' wooden faces fit into the plot
The teacher gave them five minutes to think, and several people stepped aside.
For students who have taken art exams, improvisational sketches are not unfamiliar.
They quickly figured out that since the title was "Puppy Love", the scenario had to take place on a middle school campus.
Ling Suisui spoke first: "There are five of us, three men and two women. The character relationships I envision are a pair of premature lovers, their parents, and the head teacher. This way the dramatic conflict will be very obvious, and everyone's roles will be more evenly distributed. What do you think?"
The others nodded. In the short term, they couldn't think of a more suitable configuration than this.
Qian Yi raised his hand first: "Then I want to play the class teacher."
Chen Yuening frowned. This person chose the role he wanted most.
Considering the limited time for composition, he hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll play the role of a boy in love. Ling Suisui, do you want to partner with me?"
Ling Suisui nodded: "Sure, I can play any role."
The remaining roles are also easy to divide. Zhao Jie plays the boy’s parents, and Xiang Yanchu plays the girl’s parents.
After they roughly discussed the plot and direction, the five minutes were up.
Group 1 members took their positions on the stage and the performance officially began.
The head teacher Qian Yi paced back and forth, his face full of disappointment.
Chen Yuening and Ling Suisui stood on the other side, each with a different expression. Chen Yuening was obviously a rebellious teenager, and at this moment he was holding his head up stubbornly. Ling Suisui next to him was extremely nervous, looking around, fiddling with his fingers, and looked very anxious.
Qian Yi scolded them: "The college entrance examination is coming soon, and you are still thinking about dating! During the evening self-study period, you don't study in the classroom, but go to the rooftop to look at the stars. Do you think you are in an idol drama?"
"The world is big, but the college entrance examination is the biggest! If you delay your studies, you will regret it for the rest of your life!"
Ling Sui was so frightened that he took a half step back, trembling all over.
Tang Bing noticed her tearful expression and her body trembling with just the right amplitude.
She expressed her admiration in her heart that Ling Sui had good emotional expression and body control abilities, and was a good prospect.
On the stage, although Chen Yuening was also shocked by the roar, he just paused and quickly retorted.
"We were only on the rooftop for ten minutes. Can't we take some time off to adjust our mood? Also, teacher, you assign so many papers every day that we don't even have time to catch our breath. What's wrong with taking a break?"
"You--of course I'm doing this for your own good!"
Qian Yi was mad at him. Forget it, this troublemaker is difficult to deal with. He looked at Ling Suisui again.
"Ling Suisui, the teacher knows that you are a good kid, and you are different from people like Chen Yuening. Listen to the teacher and keep your distance from this guy. Don't let him affect your college entrance exam!"
Ling Suisui choked up: "Teacher, I...I..."
She didn't dare look directly at Qian Yi, so she could only lower her head and say, "We didn't delay our studies."
"You two! Alright, alright, wait for me! I'll call your parents!"
After hearing her answer, the head teacher became even angrier. He took out his cell phone and walked aside to make a call.
"Sui Sui, leave him alone."
After the head teacher walked away, Chen Yuening held Ling Suisui's hand.
He looked into her eyes lovingly: "We agreed to go all the way to the end."
Ling Suisui: ...
We didn't mention this part during rehearsal. Why did you take advantage of the gap between the characters' appearances to add more scenes for yourself?
It was a blessing that he chose her as his partner. If it was someone else, they might have been made to laugh by his sudden idol drama lines.
Given her personality just now, of course she didn't dare to hold hands with her boyfriend in the office.
Ling Suisui hesitated and tried to pull his hand back, but Chen Yuening held it tightly.
As she pulled, her eyelashes trembled, a tear fell from her eyes, and she responded softly with "hmm".
"The girl is crying." The teacher beside Tang Bing commented quietly, "She cried so hard that Chen Yuening beside her was even brought into the role by her."
Indeed, a lot of Chen Yuening's affection just now was acted out. In the teacher's opinion, this was actually a point deduction for him, as the confession was too abrupt and stiff.
But after Ling Sui shed this tear, the emotions in this section were instantly sublimated, and her tears made the audience believe in their feelings.
——Although it was inappropriate for them to be in a relationship before the college entrance examination, Ling Sui is already like this, who can bear to blame her?
Chen Yuening raised his hand and wiped away her tears. Infected by Ling Sui's emotions, his movements were cautious, full of heartache and cherishment.
This was to not only pick up her act, but also to pave the way for the conflict when the parents appeared on the scene.
"What are you doing!?"
The head teacher was always roaring when he spoke his lines. Qian Yi rushed between the two of them and pulled Chen Yuening out by the arm.
"Mr. Chen Yuening, you saw it too. I'm not kidding. Your son is dating a girl at school. He even dared to hug her in front of the teacher. How shameless!"
"Also, Ling Sui, you have to take care of your daughter. She has always had good grades and has a chance to get into Tsinghua or Peking University. How can she fall in love at this critical moment? If you really want to date, there will be plenty of time after the college entrance examination!"
The teachers nodded frequently as they listened. The student who played the role of the head teacher's lines were very impressive. He is very smart and picked the right role.
According to the plot they had agreed on before, both parents would be angry.
Zhao Jie pretended to beat his son, and the two of them ran away and chased each other, circling around the head teacher.
"Stop it, you little brat!"
"How can I stand here and let you hit me? Do you think I'm stupid?"
When the "father and son" were having fun on the field, the class teacher Qian Yi intervened to mediate. When Zhao Jie raised his hand to hit Chen Yuening, he stepped in front of him and the slap landed on him.
To be honest, this arrangement was a bit deliberate. After all, they had no time to rehearse, so the movements and positioning were very crude.
But it is undeniable that the three boys' chaos did attract everyone's attention, even Xiang Yanchu was stunned where he was.
...However, as they had agreed before, Xiang Yanchu had to show her disdain for Chen Yuening at this time and not let her daughter get close to him, so that she and Zhao Jie could quarrel, and then Ling Suisui and Chen Yuening could speak their minds, and the parents could then give counseling, and finally the children reached an agreement to take the entrance exam for Peking University together.
Ling Sui was extremely helpless. The performance only had three minutes in total and he might not even be able to finish it as the teacher could call for a stop at any time.
The boys over there are making jokes and setting the stage for each other, but why isn't Xiang Yanchu saying anything? Is she waiting for others to cue her?
Even if the noise over there was too loud, she could just ask them to stop, and she would have a ready-made reason to dislike Chen Yuening.
There was no other way. In order to help her find a point of entry, Ling Sui could only cough heavily.
It's not a fake cough that alerts people, but a real cough that's so heart-wrenching and makes the throat smoke, which sounds very uncomfortable.
When she coughed, the focus of the play returned to her. Chen Yuening ran back anxiously, and Xiang Yanchu finally had the chance to speak his lines.
She pushed Chen Yuening away: "Go away, stay away from my daughter. Sui Sui, are you okay? What happened to you?"
The closer Xiang Yanchu got, the more Ling Suisui coughed.
She can't cough for no reason, she must make up for this situation!
Everyone else was confused and had no idea what Ling Suisui was doing. Only Chen Yuening saw her covering her nose and received the hint from her eyes.
"Auntie, Suisui is allergic to perfume!"
Chen Yuening hurriedly took Ling Suisui and retreated. At this time, she was almost unable to straighten her back due to coughing.
He supported Ling Suisui and said angrily, "Auntie, Suisui is allergic to perfume, don't you know that? Don't you care about your daughter at all?"
Chen Yuening's emotions were in place, but Xiang Yanchu's face showed no expression.
She responded dryly: "I forgot, I... Sui Sui, I didn't mean it."
The students on the stage were worried and the teachers below were shaking their heads.
This was originally a great opportunity for Xiang Yanchu to perform, but she didn't seize it.
Tang Bing frowned and was about to ring the bell to stop. However, she found that Ling Suisui had recovered from his cough.
Well, let’s wait and see.
Ling Suisui stood up straight, and before she could open her mouth, tears began to fall.
She cried and said, "Have you forgotten? The look on your face now shows that you have forgotten? You don't know anything at all, you don't understand anything, you don't care about me!"
Even though her voice was crying, Ling Sui's pronunciation of her lines was still clear, and she was able to achieve a progressive progression of emotions.
First it was weakness, then questioning, and the volume gradually increased, until it finally became a collapsed roar with almost every word being emphasized.
Ling Sui covered her face and cried bitterly. Her madness at this moment formed a sharp contrast with her cowardice at the beginning. The strong contrast of her character image was very tense and firmly caught the attention of all the teachers.
With just three sentences, she successfully made her teammate’s wooden face fit into the plot and left a deep impression on everyone.
This 20-year-old girl named Ling Sui has really strong emotional outbursts.
The performance time was limited, and Ling Suisui's crying gradually turned into sobbing. During this process, Xiang Yanchu never showed any intention of paying attention to her.
Maybe she did, but standing there hesitant to speak is not effective interaction.
Even her "boyfriend" Chen Yuening knew to hug her and pat her on the back despite the disapproving looks from her class teacher and her father. Xiang Yanchu did not get into the role at all and had no awareness of being a "real mother" at all.
After that, Ling Suisui stopped talking and left the performance space to other teammates. When the teacher doesn't ring the bell, they are responsible for turning the plot into a positive, sunny and energetic one.
Anyway, she has all the highlights she should have, and she just needs to nod and say "hmm" at the end.
After the performance, Ling Sui's eyes were still red and his throat was a little sore.
Members of Group 1 are adding each other's contact information and not forgetting to praise each other's business. Xiang Yanchu called his assistant and told him that he could come and pick her up.
...My goodness, school has already started for such a long time and she has only been in school for two hours.
"Xiang Yanchu, are you so busy?"
After Zhao Jie and Qian Yi left, Ling Suisui couldn't help but say, "It seemed like your mind wasn't on the stage just now."
Being questioned, Xiang Yanchu lowered his head in embarrassment. She didn't know what to say, so she could only bow and say sorry, which was her most accustomed way of responding.
Ling Sui, who was usually gentle and kind to everyone, had a stern face at this moment, which was unusual for him.
——Xiang Yanchu wouldn’t really think that everything could be solved just by bowing continuously and saying a few words of apology.
Ling Sui-sui bluntly said: "I don't understand, if you don't take your studies and film school seriously, why do you waste your time going to university?"
"Is it just to provide your fans with some material to satisfy their vanity?"
