Shang Yechu has had many embarrassing moments in his life, but this one stands out as particularly awkward.
"..."
After delivering his earth-shattering artistic declaration, Shi Shan probably realized that his posture was inappropriate and quickly withdrew his hand, sobering up: "Sorry, I was too excited just now."
It felt like many ants were crawling on his back. Shang Yechu moved back slightly without making a sound, putting some distance between himself and Shi Shan.
If it weren't for his burning desire for "Half of the Sky," Shang Yechu would have almost run away the moment she stepped out the door!
“You—” Never mind, Shi Shan’s mind is beyond the comprehension of a normal person, so Shang Yechu simply cut to the chase, “Shi Shan, I can understand your thoughts. But it’s no use.”
Shang Yechu had lost all her witty remarks and could only speak plainly and dryly: "Wait a minute, I'm thirsty, I'll have a drink of water first."
She turned the teapot on the table around and poured herself a cup of tea. Shang Yechu took a sip, trying to hide her bewildered expression.
Sheng Wenzhi's image suddenly flashed into his mind. It's highly likely that in his past life, he actually drowned to experience death. Just like Shi Shan, who went through all this trouble just to be friends with Shang Yechu… Artists are all a bunch of lunatics.
A theatrical fanatic, a theatrical fanatic. No wonder he's a theatrical fanatic.
Shang Yechu even wanted to ask Shi Shan if, in a scene, he would replace the prop gun with a real gun and experience a real death.
Shang Yechu admitted that he was somewhat embarrassed and angry.
In her past life, Shang Yechu was a woman with little sex appeal and had never experienced love. In this life, although her appearance has become a hundred times more striking, the men her age she encounters are strangely all either vermin like Sheng Wenzhi or Li Yi, or cowards like Gu Wenhua who wouldn't even dare to look her in the eye. These men are more likely to drive her crazy than show her any affection.
Although she had no intention of dating, Shang Yechu was an ordinary woman. It was the first time in her two lives that she had learned that she might be liked by a man of the opposite sex who was not too bad in terms of conditions. She was still curious and expectant to some extent—even if this liking was just a utilitarian act to get into character.
As it turns out, Shi Shan went through all that trouble, but his ultimate goal was just to "give his brother a hug"!
There's nothing wrong with making friends, and friendship is no less than love. But the shame and embarrassment won't be reduced in the slightest.
The two people in the room were trying to calm themselves down. After a long while, Shi Shan said in a low voice, "Did I scare you?"
"No." Shang Yechu put down her teacup, finally feeling a bit better. "I'm glad you think that way. But I haven't been chosen for a role yet. It's too early for you to be saying these things."
"So that's what you're worried about." Shi Shan breathed a sigh of relief. "Actually, you don't need to worry about Teacher Zheng supporting Wei Xuan. He's just too proud to admit it. Once he's thought it through, he'll definitely choose you."
"Hmm?" Shang Yechu realized that Shi Shan must know something. "Is this a word of comfort?"
"Of course not." Shi Shan moved back slightly, gradually regaining his easygoing and rational demeanor. "Director Xu and I had dinner a couple of days ago, and we happened to talk about this during the meal."
Shang Yechu cast a probing glance at him, and Shi Shan didn't keep her in suspense, asking frankly, "Do you know how Li Yiming sacrificed himself in Director Zheng's original script?"
Shang Yechu smiled and shook her head: "I wish I knew."
"Screenwriter Zheng designed seven heroic ways for Li Yiming to sacrifice himself. Each scene is magnificent and exciting; just reading the words is enough to get your blood pumping."
Shang Yechu paused, then said, "..."
