Chapter 192: Do Your Best
The director and scriptwriter exchanged a look with one another. They understood that she was not at all willing to do the kissing scene.
“Weiwei, actually, it is not that bad if you do the kissing scene now.”
“You are not in a bad position if you give your first kiss to s.h.i.+yi.”
Gu Weiwei’s lips twitched. If not for Fu Hanzheng, she would indeed not be in a bad position.
But hundreds of kilometers away, she could feel how jealous Fu Hanzheng was, and she would never be able to do the scene.
Fu s.h.i.+yi felt so helpless. She would not be the one put into the bad position… it was him who would be killed.
“Please, let us try the new idea first.” Gu Weiwei said sincerely.
Yi An thought for a while and nodded.
“Then try your idea first. Let’s take a look at it.”
She was a skilled actress who was always able to act according to their ideas.
So let her try acting according to her ideas this time.
When the director approved of her suggestion, Gu Weiwei told Fu s.h.i.+yi what he should do.
“If we fail even one take, we will need to do the kissing scene, so do your best now!”
“I know.”
Fu s.h.i.+yi nodded. He had to act it out well to save himself!
When the two of them were ready, they walked in front of the camera and started acting.
In order to move the director, the two of them acted from the very beginning.
Fu s.h.i.+yi also acted so attentively, that he presented a brand-new version of himself, looking very much like the hero from the ancient times.
….
“Brother Tang, we have been through life and death several times. What about becoming… sworn brothers in front of the Temple?”
Tang Shaoqi’s hand slightly s.h.i.+vered as she took a sip of the wine. She lowered her gaze and said, “I am not going to be your sworn brother.”
She showed a shy expression as she lowered her gaze.
Gu Changfeng asked, with a frown, “Why?”
They had been through life and death together so many times, all this time.
They were just like brothers, so why could they not become sworn brothers?
Tang Shaoqi looked at the lake under the setting sun and said slowly, “I am leaving to go home tomorrow.”
Gu Changfeng said, as he poured two bowls of wine, “Then let’s get drunk tonight, and then I will see you off.”
As the evening approached, the two of them were totally drunk.
With one hand over her forehead, Tang Shaoqi started to flush red as she looked at Gu Changfeng who was slumped over the table.
This young Master of the Tang Family started to look gentle, rather than his usual arrogant and cold self.
As her long fingers brushed over Gu Changfeng’s handsome face, she leaned forward and whispered, “Do you know why I can’t become your sworn brother?”
Her voice was no longer firm, but gentler now.
Gu Changfeng opened his eyes as his friend moved so closely to him.
“…Brother Tang, you look very pretty.”
Tang Shaoqi smiled brightly as she said, “Gu Changfeng, we are going to have a fight at s.h.i.+li Pavilion, tomorrow afternoon.”
“If you beat me, I will become your sworn brother.”
Having said these words, she got up and disappeared into the darkness.
Gu Changfeng sat up and smiled at the fading figure.
“Okay! See you at s.h.i.+li Pavilion tomorrow afternoon!”
….
Yi An and the scriptwriter nodded happily as they watched the performance.
“This is better, much better.”
They had been thinking that after Tang Shaoqi kissed Gu Changfeng, she would leave a note that would say ‘if you beat me in the fight at s.h.i.+li Pavilion tomorrow afternoon, I will become your sworn brother.’
However, Gu Changfeng did not attend the meeting, and that was when he missed Tang Shaoqi, who had dressed up as a girl.
Later on, when they met again, Tang Shaoqi was already the murderer that turned the Xuanyuan Group into a bloodbath.
And then the two, who were almost sworn brothers, became each other’s worst enemy.
