He Jing rested her chin on her hand: "The male lead? Isn't Lu Shen pretty good enough?"
Lu Shen is a newly crowned Best Actor. In the original novel, he played the third male lead and has portrayed many outstanding characters. His popularity is no less than that of He Ning, a national idol.
Yan Hanxi raised an eyebrow: "You like Lu Shen?"
"No, I just suddenly missed my second brother."
She dared not say that she liked Lu Shen, otherwise this little jealous person would overturn and might cause her all sorts of trouble.
"It seems like it's been a long time since I've seen my second brother."
Since He Ning joined the national team, his training has become increasingly busy, as he says he is preparing for a world-class basketball competition and wants to bring glory to the country.
His 188cm height is considered tall among ordinary people, but among basketball players, he could be considered short.
He Jing sent He Ning a message without hesitation, but He Ning didn't reply.
Instead, two business tycoons in the back row struck up a conversation, saying, "Recently, male and female celebrities have been having a lot of scandals. I think we need to find a more reliable spokesperson for our Qiuying series of products."
"Hey, who can argue with that? This is the second time. They haven't even recouped their investment in the drama. These young stars these days are all so restless."
The big shots are going bald online.
He Jingxin had a sudden thought and couldn't help but whisper to Yan Hanxi, "If Second Brother can shine in this basketball game, could he try his hand at something different in his spare time?"
Yan Hanxi's thin lips curled slightly: "Indeed, if Second Brother can achieve outstanding results, he will probably become famous and have countless endorsements, which will be a devastating blow to male stars who rely on their looks."
Putting everything else aside, his face alone is impeccable; the stands are always packed for every match, and tickets are incredibly hard to come by.
He Jing sighed softly, "Ah, I can't wait."
Although He Ning didn't become a national idol like in the original story, becoming a national male god is still pretty good!
Soon after, the screening of "Qiong Xin" began.
"Qiong Xin" tells the story of an ancient village girl who rescues an injured man of unknown origin and takes him in. Little did she know that this would lead to the destruction of her village.
The man was a notorious bandit wanted by the government. Although he was saved by the female protagonist, he was always heartless and cruel. After recovering from his injuries, he killed the female protagonist's entire village without hesitation and threw her into the river to cover up his tracks.
The female protagonist thus developed a hatred for men. After surviving by sheer luck, she vowed to take revenge on them. However, she had neither martial arts skills nor a proper identity, making revenge extremely difficult. So she sought out a master everywhere, only to be kidnapped and sold into a brothel.
Fate was unfair to the female protagonist, and no miracle of a hero saving her from danger occurred. After being bullied, beaten, and framed in the brothel, she became heartbroken and was forced to work as a prostitute.
On the night she sold her body, the female protagonist saw a notorious thief on stage who had changed his name and identity. He had transformed into a powerful local tyrant, and everyone in the brothel had to be careful around him.
The thief recognized her and a surprised yet amused smile appeared on his face.
He didn't care about the village girl who had saved him, but he was curious to see what kind of expression she would have when she looked at him.
The female protagonist certainly hated this master thief, but she calmly and serenely ignored him.
This undoubtedly aroused the great thief's curiosity. He wanted to see if there was really anyone in the world who could be so calm towards their enemy. However, when he bought the heroine's virginity, he heard her say, "Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. This is a principle my father taught me since I was a child. Although it has brought great disaster, I have no regrets. But you killed my father, mother and the whole village. I should seek revenge on you."
"If we meet again today, one of us will not be able to leave this room. I know I am no match for you, so I beg you to kill me for the sake of the life I saved back then."
