The interview results did not arrive on Shang Yechu's phone or in her email as expected. Shang Yechu waited a few days, growing increasingly anxious.
Not only did Shang Yechu not receive any notification, but Wei Xuan also received no news. Shang Yechu was extremely anxious upon hearing that Ji Juntao's Champions company was making desperate efforts to get things done. Ji Juntao was even more anxious than Shang Yechu, inquiring everywhere and even using his mother's connections, but still to no avail.
Whether it's a positive or negative result, there should be some rumors circulating. Good news or bad news is not as frightening as no news at all.
Wei Xuan and Shang Yechu – who did Ruguan TV ultimately choose?
There can be no relaxation until the final results are in. Shang Yechu is still practicing the Ruguan dialect and scripts every day. In addition, he has found many books and materials on marksmanship, horsemanship and espionage to study by comparison.
Horse riding practice can be postponed, but marksmanship cannot. Li Yiming is, after all, a special agent; if he doesn't know how to use a gun, he'll be a laughingstock.
Shang Yechu once thought of imitating the gun-holding posture of agents in popular spy dramas, but when she checked the database, she learned a fact that was both funny and sad.
In most spy dramas, the way agents hold their guns is full of flaws!
In 103's words, "If I were human, I could probably take down these clumsy agents with their faces exposed in no time."
A journey of a thousand miles with words is not as effective as a single step. Real-world training is essential to truly accumulate experience.
As a public figure, Shang Yechu needs to practice at shooting ranges or gun emplacements with adequate equipment and good privacy for the sake of secrecy. Shooting ranges in Hengshi are extremely difficult to book and have strict time restrictions. While in Hengshi, Shang Yechu was busy filming "Xiao Feng Que" and didn't have time to practice. And now that he's in Ruguan, unfamiliar with the area, it's even more difficult to book a range.
Ji Juntao was also trying to find a place to fight, but she was not a local strongman after all, and after several days she still hadn't gotten anything.
There was no notification of the audition results, and the shooting range couldn't be found. Progress on "Half a Sky" seemed to have stalled, like a frozen pool of water.
The person who shattered the ice was a visitor who was both expected and unexpected.
Shi Shan invited Shang Yechu to have dinner together.
When she received the invitation, Shang Yechu's first thought was: Wei Xuan might get the lunch.
------------
"Shi Shan invited you?" Ji Juntao, who was massaging his shoulders with a massager, raised his eyelids upon hearing this. "I told you, he's got ulterior motives—you're not allowed to go!"
The sun is strong in Ruguan, and the food is also very oily. Ji Juntao loves to eat junk food, and after a few days of traveling, he got three shades darker from the sun, but also gained weight.
Shang Yechu laughed and scolded, "So afraid that I'll be kidnapped? Doesn't he like platonic relationships? Nothing will happen."
“I never slept during my psychology classes.” The chubby Ji Juntao pulled off the massager. “I know exactly what you’re thinking.”
Shang Yechu choked, feeling inexplicably guilty: "What could I possibly be thinking? Right now, I just want to crawl into the desk drawer of the 'Tianban' project team and see who the female lead is."
Ji Juntao sneered, his burnt face revealing an air of "I know you too well."
"Ye Chu, I've seen many children like you."
"You're only six years older than me," Shang Yechu retorted. "What child? You want to be my mother?"
"Your mentality is almost like a child's," Ji Juntao sneered. "Do you think I don't know what you're up to?"
"There is someone else in this room who loves to use the abacus the most."
Ji Juntao chuckled: "Although I don't know why, you're an arrogant person when it comes to relationships. You think you've seen the coldness of human nature and won't be easily fooled. Therefore, after I told you about Shi Shan's glorious deeds, you not only didn't give up on this man, but you became even more interested."
Shang Yechu frowned: "What nonsense are you spouting?"
"You feel that with my warning beforehand, you're already on guard," Ji Juntao said calmly. "Therefore, when facing Shi Shan, you'll be wary yet adept—neither falling for his tricks nor failing to easily manipulate him. Isn't that right?"
Shang Yechu's expression remained unchanged: "I don't think Ru Guan's tea-flavored pastries contain any alcohol, do they?"
Ji Juntao's lips twitched slightly: "You like to conquer. Conquer difficulties, conquer mountains, conquer scripts, conquer characters. You naturally like to conquer people too. Shi Shan is a tricky new problem, but if handled well, the benefits will definitely be plentiful."
