On the stage, Ma Wencai was singing his inner monologue, expressing his regret over the Zhu Yingtai incident...
This stage lasts for more than 5 minutes. At this time, You Xinran, who plays Zhu Yingtai, and Liu Jia, who plays Yinxin Yatou, are already waiting to go on stage behind the curtain at the edge of the stage.
Actually, there’s a narration by an old man, and a solo performance by Zhu Yingtai before it’s Yin Xin’s (Liu Jia) turn. The whole process will take at least another 10 minutes…
However, because You Xinran was serious about the situation, she had already told Liu Jia to wait on stage after the curtains were drawn...
Liu Jia was nervous and frantically memorized her lines and singing styles, and checked her microphone several times.
After all, she was a freshman who was performing on stage for the first time. Such a big stage, so many audiences, plus You Xinran's repeated instructions not to make any mistakes, really put a lot of pressure on her!
Backstage, Huo Feng was also rehearsing lines with his sophomore classmate Wu Di, who played his servant Sijiu.
Although Huo Feng is the male lead, his role comes at the back.
This is a slow-paced performance, so it lasts more than two hours.
"Huo Feng, please don't wear the chain when you go out later..."
Wu Di was worried that Huo Feng might make a mistake, so after rehearsing his lines, he reminded him, "I heard that Xinran's parents, uncle, and aunt are all here. They're all important people. This performance is very important, and we can't make any mistakes no matter what."
"No way! Even if you are wrong, I will never be wrong. I, Huo Feng, have never been afraid when I go on stage!"
Huo Feng didn't like them reminding him over and over again to "don't make mistakes". Doesn't this mean they don't trust him?
Do you all think Huo Feng can make mistakes? You really underestimate Huo Feng's stage skills!
"I'm just reminding you that you really have to put your girlfriend and other things aside for now and concentrate on the role." Wu Di said worriedly.
"Don't talk about my girlfriend!"
When Huo Feng heard him put this hat on Yu Sangzhi, he immediately warned him, "My girlfriend is in the audience too. Because of her presence, I will perform with all my heart! She has always been the driving force behind my efforts. If you treat her as a stumbling block, then I really won't be able to perform well!"
"No, no, no...I don't mean that..."
Wu Di quickly calmed Huo Feng's temper and said something nice, "What I mean is, you have to immerse yourself in the role. You and Xinran are acting opposite each other, so your acting skills are particularly important! Xinran's parents must be paying close attention to you!"
"I'll act well!"
Huo Feng replied impatiently, "What the hell are you always telling me about her parents? Her parents are none of my business. I'll act like this whether her parents come or not!"
"That's the best, that's the best..."
Wu Di sighed and thought: I better not tell Huo Feng too much! Huo Feng has a bad temper and will get impatient if he listens too much...
"Hey, can we see the audience seats from here?" Huo Feng asked.
“You can’t see it.”
Wu Di said, "Only when you're on stage can you see the audience. Today, the audience is packed. I wonder if there are over a thousand people. Anyway, just give your best performance!"
“I can’t see…”
Huo Feng was somewhat disappointed. "I still want to find my girlfriend. I don't know what she thinks when she watches the show."
"Look, let your girlfriend go!" Wu Di said anxiously.
“Okay, okay…”
Huo Feng was too lazy to say anything else to him, "Let's review the script again, come on..."
Then, he and Wu Di went over the script for the Nth time...
In fact, all the students backstage were as nervous as Wu Di.
Everyone was facing a great enemy and continued to memorize their lines in a tense waiting state.
It is understandable that a freshman would behave like this, after all, it is his first time on stage.
However, the sophomores and juniors were also extremely nervous, which was enough to show how much pressure the elders in You Xinran's family put on them!
It is said that Beijing has no shortage of powerful people. This is also the time when Huo Feng truly witnessed the influence of so-called property power on campus.
I have to say...
It’s really important to have a good father!
After this incident, Huo Feng told himself that he had to work hard to help his son achieve the same status as You Xinran...
Because he has no other choice. Since his father is not doing well, he is the only one who can do well!
…
The performance had already lasted nearly 20 minutes, and this reverse-chronological musical was gradually getting to the point...
The story begins when Zhu Yingtai decides to dress up as a man and begins to perform...
At this time on the stage, Zhu Yingtai's maid Yinxin was singing "Change Your Appearance and Dress Up Cleverly".
"You and I, taking off our hairpins and putting on makeup, without applying powder, transforming into men..."
While singing the lyrics in a high-pitched voice, Yin Xin was combing Zhu Yingtai's hair and dressing her up on the spot...
"Yinxin, from today on, we are both men."
After Zhu Yingtai (You Xinran) changed into men's clothing, she turned around, gently placed her fingers on Yinxin's (Liu Jia) hand, and said to her tenderly, "Outside, you call me Master, and I call you Yinxin. Please don't call me Miss anymore."
"I understand, miss."
Yin Xin nodded, then pretended to be flustered and changed her words in time, "Master..."
The pace of the theater performance was very slow. After 20 minutes, it was just the beginning of the story. The audience kept looking down at their phones and looking up at the plot...
Even though I was distracted while watching the show, I didn’t miss any of the plots…
Yu Sangzhi, Mai Naer, Wei Zixuan, and Mu Mu had already started eating snacks while watching the show...
Minal would occasionally say, "Why haven't we seen Brother Feng yet? When will Liang Shanbo appear? The pace of TV dramas isn't that slow..."
