TN: Was kinda busy this week, sorry this was meant to be Thursday’s regular release and I scheduled it to be a timed release on wordepress that didn’t happen… ? So here it is now!

He didn’t expect that he would chat with Meng Zhi for so long and said to Meng Zhi in surprise, “Meng ge, it’s almost 11 o’clock.”

Meng Zhi certainly knows that it’s getting late. After all, they have gone through several topics.

“So late?” He pretended to be surprised and said, “then you have a rest. I’ll go back first.”

“Well, Meng ge, go back safely.”

“See you tomorrow.”

“See you tomorrow.”

By the time Shen Qingshu sent him off Han Cheng’s call had already hung up.

He dialled back to Han Cheng and heard Han Cheng ask him, “Why didn’t you answer the phone just now?”

“Meng ge was here just now, so it’s not very convenient.”

“Meng ge? You’ve changed from teacher Meng to Meng ge in only half a day?”

Shen Qingshu chuckled. “They are all polite honorifics, not really ge. What are you being weird about?”

“Unless, you really want to call him ge?”

“I don’t.” Shen Qingshu quickly denied.

“That’s for the best.” Han Cheng said, dissatisfied again, “So you two stayed together until 11 o’clock?”

Shen Qingshu comforted him and said, “it’s just for line reading.”

“Line reading, right until now?”

“I also talked about my previous work. I didn’t talk about private affairs. Don’t worry.”

Han Cheng is so worried.

On the first day of meeting, they can talk until 11 o’clock. If he can rest assured, he will be a ghost!

“Don’t talk to him for so long in the future. Finish your work early and go to bed early, okay?”

“I know.” Shen Qingshu responded.

“Go have a rest. Don’t you have to attend the opening ceremony tomorrow? You have to get up early again.”

“Then I’ll take a bath.”

“En.”

“Good night.”

“Good night.”

Shen Qingshu waited for Han Cheng to finish speaking, then hung up the phone and walked to the bathroom.

The next morning, he got up early in the morning and attended the opening ceremony of the movie with the others of the crew.

The crew members uploaded photos of the opening ceremony. In the nine square grid, several cast members have single close-ups. The publicity staff of the crew also specially named various actors in the publicity post, which can be regarded as an official announcement.

Shen Qingshu forwarded this weibo with the words: new role ~ new start~

At the moment, “Southern Rose” is popular and the fans are at their most motivated. Therefore, as soon as the little green bamboos1 saw the cast of the play, they cheered in the group, frantically forwarded this weibo, and quickly moved the opening ceremony official weibo post to the forum.

[News just in! Shen Qingshu has a new project. It’s a movie!]

[Shen Qingshu has new resources so soon?]

[Ah ah ah ah ah, Shen Qingshu and Meng Zhi, my wall head and life source are filming together!]

[Be reasonable, how is Shen Qingshu developing now?]

The passerby who eats melon curiously clicked in, and saw several photos of the opening ceremony issued by the official weibo. Shen Qingshu stood next to Director Zheng and held incense with him.

“F*ck! Director Zheng’s film, Shen Qingshu, this resource is good!”

“He has just become popular and he can play director Zheng’s film, too awesome.”

“Hahaha, passers-by fans are ecstatic.”

“This time, who dares to say that he is not a favourite of heaven.2  The first drama co-starred with Bai Xuege and the second movie co-starred with Meng Zhi. I admire these resources.”

“I noticed that he was actually the second male, and took over Hou Chaorui’s role? Hou Chaorui has been in business for many years. He belongs to the acting school category. What qualifications does he have!”

“Although he is now popular,”Southern Rose”is still airing. How can he win over someone twice as popular as he is.”

“Hasn’t “Southern Rose” rubbed the heat of Bai Xuege? His team is also powerful, first “Southern Rose” with Bai Xuege and now “Plundering time” with Meng Zhi. Bai Xuege is younger and Meng Zhi has a different style from him. Therefore he can always attract fans, otherwise how could he get his current popularity?”

“That’s right, he should feel the wrath of heaven?”

“Shen Qingshu has no strength. He suddenly became popular on “Come and listen to me”. He just depends on his face and his mouth and gets lucky. When “Come and listen to me” finished broadcasting, the “Southern Rose” started broadcasting, so he continuously had screen time. Which helped him consolidate his fans and continued to increase his popularity.”

“That’s to say, Shen Qingshu is lucky, but it’s not necessary to say he’s competent. “Come and listen to me” is a live broadcast. every time he comes out, the largest number of people watch. Out of everyone, he is the only one to unlock the whole set of figurines successfully. If he is competent too, how can others live?”

“However, he has really good resources. Forget about “Southern Ros” with the configuration of this film, it obviously wants to win awards. As a newcomer who has only participated in an idol drama, he was able to play a second male lead in this kind of film.”

“Didn’t the director choose him? I think his acting skills in “Southern Rose” are very good. In addition, he is so popular now, it’s normal for the director to choose him.”

“And he is so handsome!!! You see, he is really handsome standing next to Meng Zhi without losing in comparison!”

“There is only one thing to say. His image is good, and the popularity among passers-by is good. In addition, “Southern Rose” has brought him popularity. Although being chosen by director Zheng was a surprise, it is understandable. I hope he can seize the opportunity.”

“That’s difficult, this is only his second work. With the first one being an idol drama. His acting skills are too uncertain.”

“QingQing, come on! QingQing must seize this opportunity!”

“Come on, come on!”

Shen Qingshu finished the opening ceremony and went to lunch with the rest of the crew. Then he did styling, changed his clothes and was ready to shoot.

This movie is a crime genre. A murder case suddenly appeared in the quiet X city, the deceased was a white-collar, young and beautiful, only 24 years old. Li Haiyang, the investigator in charge of the case, analysed all the communication of the deceased, but found no suspicious object.

Then another man died. This time, the deceased was a man in his 50s. He was short and fat. It was said that he had a bad temper. Li Haiyang investigated all his social relations and was surprised to find that there were many enemies, but few had the time and conditions to commit the crime.

When Li Haiyang was worried, the third victim appeared. She was a middle-aged woman in her 40s. She was hardworking and ordinary, worked hard and had no enemies. Li Haiyang visited all her relatives and friends and found that even if the people around her didn’t look up to her, they didn’t complain about her.

He tried to find the connection between the three, but he always felt that he seemed to be missing something. At the same time, his little apprentice Luo Yi, relying on his excellent memory, was one step ahead of Li Haiyang and realised a crucial lead for this case.

He was about to tell his master about it, but found that the murderer was after him – he was the murderer’s next target.

Before Luo Yi’s death, he tried his best to leave the key points of the case for Li Haiyang. However, Li Haiyang, who lost his beloved, didn’t notice. Until he helped Luo Yi clean up the relics, he suddenly reacted to what the information Luo Yi left him meant. He looked at the serial murders from a different angle and finally solved the case.

In this script, Meng Zhi, who plays Li Haiyang and Hou Chaorui, who plays the murderer, both have complex psychological plays to explore human nature and rationality. Only Shen Qingshu, who plays Luo Yi, has no such complex psychological play. This is a good thing and a bad thing. The good thing is that the character’s image is a pure white moonlight. The bad thing is that if he applies for awards in the future, his probability of winning an award is much lower than Hou Chaorui, who is also the second male lead.

However, Shen Qingshu didn’t intend to win an award for his first film, so this disadvantage is negligible.

He was looking at the script when he heard someone shouting, “Bai Jian, come here.”

Shen Qingshu quickly looked up and saw a man of similar age to him not far away. The other man looked beautiful at about one metre seven or six and an aura of docility.

Shen Qingshu stared at him, his eyes didn’t dare to blink. He was watching when Bai Jian suddenly turned back. In an instant, the two looked at each other. Shen Qingshu immediately felt embarrassed to be caught staring. He could only smile awkwardly and politely.

Bai Jian also smiled.

The person beside him touched him as if they had said something to say to him.

Bai Jian nodded. Soon, Shen Qingshu saw him coming towards him.

Shen Qingshu is a little nervous unconsciously. Is this the protagonist’s shou? Is this the protagonist’s shou?

He remembered that the protagonist shou has this name and Meng Zhi appeared several times in the novel to help the protagonist shou. Working with him to clear his name and wash away his grievances.

Both conditions are met. He must be the protagonist shou?

Thinking so, his brain turned desperately, trying to remember whether the protagonist shou had any other characteristics.

Soon, he remembered that the novel said that the protagonist shou had a tear mole at the edge of his eye.

Shen Qingshu hurriedly looked left and right and finally saw the small tear mole by his right eye.

He guessed correctly!

It’s him! It’s him! It’s him!

The protagonist shou of the novel!

Han Cheng! Your wife is here! Your wife is here at last!

Shen Qingshu looked at Bai Jian and instantly raised a smile that felt like the spring breeze in March.

“Hello teacher Shen.” Bai Jian said politely, “I’m Bai Jian. I play Li Lang, the didi of Li Haiyang in the play. I have a scene with you.”

Shen Qingshu nodded his head and understood why he didn’t know Bai Jian was on the crew before. It turned out to be so.

Li Lang doesn’t have many scenes. Basically, every time Li Haiyang goes home, he and Li Haiyang have several interactions to explain Li Haiyang’s past.

The single scene they share is also with Li Haiyang – Li Lang envies young Luo Yi in his police uniform and says he once wanted to be a policeman, but gege didn’t approve.

Luo Yi asked him, “Why?”

“My gege said he couldn’t lose relatives anymore. My father used to be a policeman and died on duty. My mother was retaliated against by my father’s enemies. He was afraid of something happening to me, so he won’t let me be a policeman. He minimised contact with me outside.”

Luo Yi nodded and said to him, “then he’s thinking of you. He wants to protect you.”

Li Lang looked at him with a smile, “I know.”

Therefore, after Luo Yi’s death, Li Haiyang’s spiritual world suffered an earthquake-like collapse. He has been losing his sensibility and rationality, held together by only responsibility and justice. He is the kind of person who is most afraid of losing, but he is the one who has lost the most in the whole movie.

When Shen Qingshu was reading the script, only the character’s name was written in the script. For this movie, he didn’t particularly inquire about who played Li lang. Unexpectedly, it was the protagonist shou of the original novel.

Is it finally time for Han Cheng to meet the protagonist shou?

Sure enough!

Now, as a tool man, he can also pack up and prepare to assist or go offline.

As for whether to assist or go offline, it depends on Han Cheng’s attitude towards the protagonist shou.

If they fall in love at first sight, he will go offline directly and bless their beautiful love.

If the two of them grow in love over time, he can help them and save them many detours by taking advantage of the fact that he and the protagonist shou are in the same crew.

It depends on Han Cheng’s own attitude.

Shen Qingshu thought of this and wondered whether he should mention dissolving his car friend relationship with Han Cheng. After all, Han Cheng is going to fall in love, and it’s not appropriate to maintain the car friend relationship with him.

Will it be a little sudden? After all, Han Cheng sent him to the crew all the way yesterday and they hugged before he left.

Less than a day later, he proposed to terminate the relationship, which seemed like there was something missing in the middle.

Han Cheng may feel that he is a heartless scum man again and wildly imagine he has hooked up with someone in the crew.

That’s no good.

Shen Qingshu propped his head and felt that he had to think of a suitable way.
