Chapter 357 Mary Sue's Sister-in-law (12)
Ning Shichu went to visit the set of an artist from his own company, the only third-tier artist Xu Qingzhu. She is currently playing the fourth female role in a palace fighting drama, which is considered a good resource. After all, she has a lot of screen time and appears in two-thirds of the whole drama. She is a minor villain, and if she performs well, her popularity will rise to a new level.
Xu Qingzhu is a simple-minded girl, who is pure and pretty. Because she works in Ning Shichu's company, with the support of the Xi family and the Ning family, none of the dirty things in the entertainment industry have happened to her. But this has also allowed her to successfully stay outside the center of the entertainment industry, so she has always been calm.
"Boss, I'm so happy that you came to watch me act!" Xu Qingzhu had no scenes to act at the moment, so she ran to Ning Shichu happily and told her gossip about the crew in a familiar manner.
"Sister Lin Ya is the heroine of our drama. Look, she acts really well, right? She looks so pitiful when she cries, and looks so beautiful. I wish I could cry as beautifully as she does..." She said, looking at the leading actress in the play with envy.
Ning Shichu looked over there. The female lead was wearing a bright red dress. It was obviously a very flashy outfit, but when she cried, she really looked as pitiful as Xu Qingzhu said. Ning Shichu raised his eyebrows. This female lead really had some abilities.
"Is she playing the queen?" Ning Shichu asked.
"No, she is currently playing the role of a royal concubine. She will only be crowned as the queen in the last episode." Xu Qingzhu shook her head.
"Then why is she wearing a bright red dress? Isn't this an act of usurpation? Isn't she afraid of being killed by the Queen? Or is she doing it on purpose, taking advantage of her favor?" Ning Shichu asked again. She didn't know what the plot of this drama was, so she was a little curious.
Xu Qingzhu widened her eyes and said, "Yes, she is a concubine now. Isn't it inappropriate for her to wear red? Her character in this drama is not the kind of unruly, willful, spoiled concubine, but gentle, considerate, and pitiful. Isn't this kind of dress inappropriate?"
Ning Shi was also confused when he first saw her, and had no idea what was going on, so he said, "Maybe the director asked her to dress like this for other reasons. It's none of your business. You just need to play your role well."
"I will try my best to act well and not let you worry, boss!" Xu Qingzhu confessed immediately.
Ning Shichu ordered some drinks and snacks and said, "Distribute them to the crew. This is for your benefit. Although our company is small, we are not pushovers. Don't let others bully you."
Xu Qingzhu was so moved that her eyes were filled with tears: "Thank you, boss. You are so nice to me..." As she said this, she hugged Ning Shichu's waist.
Ning Shichu held her forehead and said, "You know I'm good, so you should do better."
Xu Qingzhu nodded repeatedly.
After Ning Shichu said goodbye to Xu Qingzhu, he came out of the film and television city. When he drove past the cross-river bridge near the film and television city, he saw a man with a scruffy beard climbing up the bridge pole and standing up. He was swaying in the wind and looked like he was about to jump off the bridge.
Ning Shichu narrowed his eyes. The car had already driven past, but finally he sighed, resigned himself to his fate, turned back, and parked the car next to the man.
As soon as she got out of the car, the man opened his arms and jumped into the river.
Ning Shichu instantly ran behind the man at an incredible speed, grabbed one of his feet, pulled it back hard, and forcibly pulled the man back and dragged him back to the bridge.
When the man was dragged back to the bridge, he was still crying hysterically: "Don't pull me! Let me jump! Let me die! I don't want to live anymore, what's the point of saving me? Let me die..."
He collapsed and fell to the ground crying, then tried to stand up and jump into the river.
Ning Shichu kicked him to the ground. He crawled again, and Ning Shichu kicked him again. In short, every time he crawled, she kicked him. After repeating this several times, the man's suicidal impulse was finally kicked away by her, and replaced by anger towards Ning Shichu.
"Why did you try to stop me?! Do you know how much pain I am in? What qualifications do you have to stop me from living a free life? Why do you have to meddle in other people's business?" The man shouted at Ning Shichu, tears streaming down his face, making a lot of noise and noise, like a madman.
"Do you think I want to control you? Who told you to seek death in a private place, but I saw you? You can only blame yourself!" What kind of person is Ning Shichu? She would make a fuss even if she was powerless. What's more, she was right this time. She saved a life, even if the person being saved didn't appreciate it.
Ning Shichu said unhappily, "I haven't blamed you for wasting my time yet, and you still have the nerve to blame me for saving you?"
The man sobbed again, and when he heard Ning Shichu looked at him coldly instead of trying to comfort him, without any sympathy, he became even more angry and sad: "Why didn't you persuade me to cherish my life and not commit suicide? Is this how you save people?"
"Don't you understand all these principles? Do you think you can figure it out after I tell you? Even if you want to die, you can't be unreasonable, right?" Ning Shichu said coldly, crossing his arms.
"Wow, you devil, can't you comfort me and say something nice to me?" the man yelled, "You woman, you have a heart of stone..."
"Have you cried enough? If you have, then go away and stop obstructing the traffic. Look at how congested the bridge is because of you. Do you have any sense of public morality?" The hard-hearted Ning Shichu scolded.
The car owners who were stuck nearby all came over. Seeing the man's miserable appearance, they tried to comfort him: "Difficulties are only temporary. What are you thinking that you have to take a desperate measure? Just hold on for a while, don't do anything stupid..."
"Yes, yes, think about your relatives and friends. If something happens to you, they will be so sad."
"There are so many beautiful things in this world, how can we give up our lives so easily..."
These are normal words to persuade others not to commit suicide. When the man who was suicidal heard these words, his eyes immediately filled with tears. There are still many good people in the world, and there are few who are as cold-hearted as that woman.
After being comforted by everyone, the man no longer had the urge to commit suicide. In fact, as long as the moment of impulse passed, he finally felt a little scared. Although what he encountered was painful, it was not to the point of death?
Li Jiewen patted the dust off his body, thanked the kind drivers, promised that he would not commit suicide again, and sent them away. Then he said awkwardly to Ning Shichu who was watching the show at the side: "Thank you for saving me. I shouldn't have taken my anger out on you just now..."
Ning Shichu rolled his eyes and said, "Now that I have regained my sanity, I know what is right and what is wrong. Please do as you please. I should leave too."
As he was about to get in the car and leave, Li Jiewen was quick-witted and opened the back door and got in spontaneously.
"I didn't think I said I would give you a ride?" Ning Shichu looked at him expressionlessly and said.
Li Jiewen, who had gotten rid of his suicidal state, was very thick-skinned and said, "Hey, if you want to do good things, just do it to the end. If you want to send Buddha to the west, can't you send me to the west?"
