"Why did Teacher Zheng suddenly disappear?" Shang Yechu asked tentatively. "Could something have happened to her?"
Shi Shan gently shook his head: "Don't worry, Teacher Zheng is fine. He's just not seeing anyone. Consultant Zhang Chen and Director Liu went to see him, but they were both turned away."
What exactly happened to Zheng Bohan...?
Shang Yechu was incredibly curious. Shi Shan was acquainted with Xu Hanwen, could he also be familiar with Zheng Bohan? Did he know anything inside? But if she asked rashly, would she need to agree to any conditions Shi Shan would impose?
Shang Yechu remained expressionless, only her eyes gleaming anxiously. She wanted an answer, yet didn't want to pay any possible price.
The silence in the room lasted for half a minute before Shi Shan suddenly spoke: "I've read the complete script of 'Half of the Sky'."
It was like a thunderclap out of nowhere. Shang Yechu was startled, and then a complex feeling welled up inside her.
This is not unusual. Given Shi Shan's status, it would be unreasonable not to let him see the complete script. It's just that Wei Xuan and Shang Yechu were fighting tooth and nail for the female lead, and the first person to see the complete script was actually Shi Shan, the second lead. It's truly laughable.
Shi Shan looked at Shang Yechu and said seriously, "Teacher Zheng's romantic scenes have always been quite controversial..."
It means it's poorly written.
"Therefore, in the script of 'Half the Sky,' Teacher Zheng intentionally changed the romantic relationship between Li Yiming and Li Ruhui, transforming their relationship into a pure camaraderie among comrades-in-arms. There was no romantic element involved."
The entire conversation, carried by the aroma of tea, reached Shang Yechu's ears. The moment she understood the meaning behind Shi Shan's words, Shang Yechu's heart skipped a beat.
"Is that so?" Shang Yechu concealed her emotions and forced a smile. "I've only read the first ten episodes of the script, so I don't know much about the later plot."
"The rest of the script is also quite excellent." Shi Shan crossed his hands on his knees and leaned slightly towards Shang Yechu, a gesture indicating his deep engagement in the conversation.
"Although in the eyes of the world, Li Yiming and Li Ruhui were a couple, only the two of them knew that what connected them was something that was infinitely more noble, great, and pure than love. That was their shared aspirations and ideals."
A hint of excitement and fervor flickered in Shi Shan's eyes: "Professor Zheng Bohan believes that so-called romantic feelings would only tarnish the purity and elegance of this friendship—"
"After all, the most romantic thing in the world is the red ideal!"
Compared to it, love is nothing more than a hormonal imbalance. How can the restlessness of hormones compare to the resonance of souls? Ideals are the lovers to whom Li Yiming and Li Ruhui devoted their lives!
Shi Shan's tone grew increasingly fervent, his eyes gleaming, and he had almost forgotten Shang Ye Chu's existence.
"Teacher Zheng enlightened me—he was right. Compared to the friendship between Li Yiming and Li Ruhui in this script, how ridiculous and how pointless were all the things I used to indulge in?"
"I should become a new me, instead of imprisoning myself in a narrow understanding and defiling true art!"
Shi Shan's eyes shone with an alarming intensity, his expression almost devout. His muscles were taut, and an indescribable sense of oppression overflowed from his gentle and refined exterior.
At this moment, in Shi Shan's eyes, Shang Yechu no longer existed. This lounge seemed to have become his own personal stage. He was immersed in the great art, shedding his pretentious facade and revealing his unadorned true self.
Shang Yechu became increasingly uneasy as she listened. According to Shi Shan, there was no love between Li Yiming and Li Ruhui in the script. Wait a minute—
“Shared aspirations”;
"ideal";
"Purity";
"Without any romantic or erotic undertones":
So……
