Chapter 17: Big Lei Scumbag, You Are Almost the Same
Wu Suowei felt uneasy when he looked at him. This look... why did it feel weird?
He stuttered a little as he said the next sentence: "Go away! Go away!" Then, he raised his hand and slapped Chi Cheng in the face as the script said.
But when he was halfway through swinging his hand, he met Chi Cheng's deep eyes, which were filled with encouragement and indulgence, and Wu Suowei's movements instantly softened.
The slap was so light that it almost brushed Chi Cheng's cheek, without even causing much wind.
Chi Cheng: “…”
Wu Suowei: "..."
The air was a little awkward.
Chi Cheng raised his eyebrows, his tone a little helpless and teasing: "Use harder. It's not like I can't dodge."
He stretched his neck and said, "Show some courage. Xiaoyu hates the scumbag so much right now."
Wu Suowei blushed and became a little angry and embarrassed: "I know, I know! Stop nagging!" He took a deep breath and cheered himself up.
Five hundred yuan! Five hundred yuan! Slap that scumbag! Slap Chi Cheng! Consider it revenge!
"Then why were you reciting so much just now..." Wu Suowei couldn't help but mutter softly, with a hint of complaint, "Aren't you a scumbag? A scumbag should act like a scumbag! A little fierce! A little guilty!"
Yes! Chi Cheng is a scumbag!
The scumbag who ruined my life in my previous life!
Chi Cheng was amused by him and chuckled with a hint of amusement: "I am a scumbag? Teacher Xiao Wu?"
He moved a little closer, and his warm breath almost brushed Wu Suwei's nose.
Wu Suowei was forced to take a half step back, his face flushed, and he stiffened his neck and said stubbornly: "Da Lei, you scumbag...you're almost the same!"
Wu Suowei's ears felt a little hot because of his words "Teacher Wu" and the indulgent tone.
Neuropathy!
They're all bastards! They only know how to bully others!
Chi Cheng was amused by his outraged accusation and laughed softly, his chest vibrating, but his eyes were a little indulgent: "Okay, okay, I'm a scumbag, I'm a scumbag."
He raised his hands in surrender, his tone like coaxing a child, "Then Teacher Wu, please teach me how to play a scumbag. I am willing to learn."
The call of "Teacher Wu" was so sweet and seductive that it made Wu Suowei's ears itch.
"..." Wu Suowei was choked by his rogue look and was speechless, his face turned even redder.
"Alright, alright, let's do it again, seriously." Chi Cheng put away his joking expression, but the warmth in his eyes did not diminish. "Just follow the script, fight when you need to, don't be a coward."
He stood up again, resuming his demeanor as a jerk who deserved a beating, his chin slightly raised, his eyes filled with condescending contempt, "Come on, let me see if your determination is worth five hundred yuan."
Five hundred yuan!
These two words were like a shot of adrenaline, instantly injecting Wu Suowei with energy! He took a deep breath and tried to imagine Chi Cheng before him as the bastard in his past life who had hesitated and ultimately chosen to give up on him! The grievance, anger, and unwillingness to be looked down upon instantly surged up!
After rehearsing it twice, Wu Suowei relaxed a little, his lines became smoother, and his slapping movements became a little faster, but Chi Cheng always managed to slightly turn his head to dodge when his hand was halfway through, and his movements were agile and natural.
"Brother Nian, it's ready here!" Chi Cheng shouted towards the door.
Brother Nian pushed the door open and came in, smiling broadly: "Hey! Okay, okay! Then let's go to the rehearsal room next door? Xiao Wu, just follow..."
Before Nian Ge finished speaking, Chi Cheng had already taken over the conversation very naturally, raising his chin towards him: "Follow me, haven't we been talking for so long just now?"
Wu Suowei: ???
He suddenly turned his head to look at Brother Nian, his eyes wide open, "Wait! Brother Nian, which teacher plays the male lead?"
No way, no way?
Chi Cheng put his hands in his pockets, looked at his surprised expression, and raised the corner of his mouth in a curve that was definitely not kind. He said slowly: "Thank you for your guidance, Teacher Xiao Wu."
“…” Wu Suowei almost couldn’t catch his breath.
After all this time, I have to act opposite him?! And I have to play the role of the one being cheated on?!
This madman definitely did it on purpose!
He felt like he had fallen into a huge pit, but with five hundred dollars a day glittering in front of him, he had no choice but to jump in.
The rehearsal room was simply decorated, the lights were brightened, and Brother Nian and several staff members sat behind the monitor.
Chi Cheng and Wu Suowei stood in the center of the venue.
"Action!" Brother Nian shouted.
Wu Suowei took a deep breath and tried to put himself in Xiaoyu's role.
He looked at Chi Cheng who was standing in front of him. He was wearing a dark shirt today. He had an upright posture and no expression on his face, but his eyes were fixed on him.
Wu Suowei's heartbeat began to accelerate uncontrollably again.
Xiaoyu thought of the gift that was thrown away casually, and a real feeling of frustration came over her.
He stared at Da Lei, his eyes filled with hurt and disbelief, his voice trembling: "That was a gift from him..."
He paused, his voice filled with a deeper sense of grievance and questioning, "What about me... who am I..."
Da Lei's brows immediately furrowed. He took a step forward and spoke in an urgent and low voice, as if he was trying to grasp something: "No... Let me explain..."
"What's there to explain?!" Xiaoyu's voice suddenly rose, filled with tears of anger. He pointed at the imaginary "corner" and said, "I saw it all! Just because he gave it to you, you threw me aside?!"
His chest heaved violently, and his eyes began to redden uncontrollably. The feeling of being looked down upon and replaced was so real, as if he had returned to his previous life and saw the moment when Chi Cheng hesitated between Huang Long and him.
Because it was Huang Long...
You can just...give up on me?
"No...Xiaoyu..." Da Lei's voice was filled with an almost painful struggle. He stretched out his hand, as if wanting to touch Xiaoyu, but stopped in mid-air, his eyes filled with complex emotions, "You know...I..."
Chi Cheng...should I gamble again...
At this moment, Wu Suowei suddenly raised his hand.
This time, he used all his strength, carrying with him all the grievances, anger, despair and unwillingness from past and present lives, and slapped Chi Cheng's handsome yet hateful face hard.
“Bang!”
A crisp and loud slap sounded in the quiet studio!
Everyone was stunned!
Wu Suowei himself was stunned! He had never expected that he would actually hit the target!
Chi Cheng didn't dodge?! He was so fast in practice just now!
But Chi Cheng... Chi Cheng actually stood there, motionless, and took the blow hard!
The force was so great that Wu Suowei's fingertips became numb.
Chi Cheng's face was hit and tilted slightly to the side, and a clear slap mark quickly appeared on his fair skin.
