Chapter 75 Two Pencils
Back to the front yard.
Deng Chao and Wang Hui were getting along well with each other in the living room; Li Jianyi was correcting Wang Baoqiang's posture and movements in the corridor; Wu Liping, Li Donghan and Wu Chao were huddled in the corner, muttering to themselves.
In the west wing, He Saifei is teaching Huo Siyan and Wang Ling the proper manners of a lady from a noble family, and how to appear to be well-read and elegant - Wu Yunzhu [Dong Efei] is a talented woman in the play.
Under the grape trellis, Pan Hong was leading Yang Rong, Cui Bo, and Chen Jie to rehearse the plot of the talent show.
Although by the fourth day everyone had a rough idea of who would be on top and who would be demoted, the attitudes of the seniors had not changed at all, and they still maintained an evenhanded attitude.
Xu Kun looked around and was debating whether to choose an "interest group" to join or go it alone, when someone suddenly patted his shoulder.
"Hey~"
Hao Lei walked around Xu Kun, pouted towards the grape trellis and asked, "What's going on between you and Cui Bo? Let's make it clear first, you can't be fascinated by those two pencils and lose your class stance!"
Xu Kun looked in the direction she pointed and met Cui Bo's prying gaze.
Their eyes met, and Cui Bo quickly turned away.
I have to say, it is really as straight, thin and long as a pencil.
After being pointed out by Li Fazeng and Hao Lei one after another, Xu Kun felt that this matter had to be resolved. He did not want Director Liu Heng to mistakenly think that there was something going on in his crew.
Even if you want to do it, you have to do it secretly.
However, since his purpose was to dispel the rumors, Xu Kun naturally could not have any private dealings with Cui Bo anymore, so he discussed it with Hao Lei first, and then went back to find He Saifei.
afternoon.
Cui Bo wandered around the yard in a daze. She really didn't want to face Yang Rong's oval face in the house, because every time she saw her tanned skin, she couldn't help but want to ask: Why?!
How can such a free-spirited person, who as an actress doesn't even know how to take care of her own face, still be tolerated and recognized by everyone? !
But after going out, Cui Bo didn't know where to go.
Previously, she looked down on Wang Ling because of her indifferent and distant attitude towards everyone, and thought that this woman was isolating herself from the crew.
But now Cui Bo discovered that cutting himself off from the crew was not the saddest thing. What was most ridiculous was people like him who tried hard to fit in the crew but drifted further and further away.
It was early October in the capital, a time of clear and crisp autumn weather, but as Cui Bo strolled with his long legs, he seemed to feel the coldest days of winter.
"stop!"
Just as she unknowingly came to a corner, a loud shout filled with suppressed anger suddenly sounded from behind her.
Cui Bo looked up in surprise and saw Hao Lei coming towards him aggressively.
Did Xu Kun tell her what happened last night? That man really wanted to get rid of her!
Cui Bo, who had misunderstood, felt both regretful and timid. Originally, with a height of 170cm, she was slightly taller than Hao Lei, who was 167cm. But as Hao Lei got closer and closer, her momentum became stronger and stronger, and the heights of the two people also showed a trend of one increasing while the other decreased.
By the time Hao Lei stood one step away, Cui Bo had unknowingly become half a head shorter than her.
Then Hao Lei put her hands on her hips and asked condescendingly: "Where is my pink dress?!"
Cui Bo's mind was full of how to make excuses to cover up what happened yesterday, but he immediately went offline when he heard this question.
What pink clothes?
What on earth is she talking about? !
"Okay, you're just pretending to be dumb, right?!"
As Hao Lei spoke, she took another half step forward like a fighting cock.
Cui Bo took a half step back like a chicken with a plague, and said awkwardly: "Sister Hao Lei, are you mistaken? Why would I take your clothes?"
"How dare you quibble!"
Hao Lei raised her hand suddenly.
Cui Bo was overwhelmed by her power and subconsciously shrank his neck and closed his eyes, even forgetting that he could dodge.
But after waiting for a long time, the slap did not fall.
Cui Bo opened his eyes in confusion, but saw Hao Lei taking a few steps back, crossing her arms and looking as if it had nothing to do with her.
What is going on? !
Just when he was completely confused, he heard someone say in the corner, "Just now I asked Sister Lei to help me act out a play." The voice coming from behind the wall was naturally Xu Kun.
"It's you?"
When she saw Xu Kun, Cui Bo's expression changed. When she saw the digital camera in Xu Kun's hand, her expression changed again and again. Finally, she gritted her teeth and cursed: "Shameless! Don't think you can kick me out of the crew just because you framed me for stealing!"
"What is this and what is it?"
Xu Kun was so confused by the criticism that he raised the camera in his hand, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "I've already said that I just asked Sister Lei to act with you - here, take a look for yourself."
As he spoke, Xu Kun placed the screen of the digital camera in front of Cui Bo.
Cui Bo looked at the screen with doubt, only to find that what was shown on it was not the scene just now, but the scene of He Saifei, in the same posture, questioning Yang Rong why he stole clothes.
Cui Bo looked at Xu Kun and Hao Lei in confusion, then continued to stare at the screen, wanting to see what they were doing.
Yang Rong was also a little frightened at first, but not as panicked as Cui Bo. The emotions he showed were mainly grievance and confusion, and he also tried to explain to He Saifei.
But after a few arguments, she suddenly said with an "Ah", "I remember now, this is the rivalry between Huabuzi and the Queen!"
Is this a rivalry between Huabuzi and the Queen?
Cui Bo looked up at Hao Lei again, thinking that the other party had indeed acted like a queen just now.
But why is Teacher He Saifei on Yang Rong's side?
When Cui Bo looked at the screen again, the scene had switched to a shot of her and Hao Lei.
Then Cui Bo finally understood Xu Kun's intention behind this action.
The same drama, the same opening. Although Yang Rong was also suppressed by He Saifei's momentum, no matter how weak she was, she kept trying to defend herself, acting more like a little girl who was wronged by her elders.
As for Cui Bo, it was purely the master teaching the servant a lesson, and Cui Bo's subconscious reaction perfectly portrayed the image of a servant who was fearful and cowering, and dared not speak out about her grievances.
Even though the expressions can't be seen clearly on the small screen, the strong contrast seems to be overwhelming.
Cui Bo had always thought that she was no worse than Yang Rong, but now the indisputable fact was before her, and her face felt hot, as if Hao Lei's slap in the face had really hit her hard.
Hao Lei took the opportunity to add: "If you suspect there is something fishy going on, you can go and find Teacher He Saifei to confirm."
The reason why Xu Kun asked He Saifei for help was mainly because He Saifei was in charge of the Wu Yunzhu line and had not been involved in Tong Layue's competition, so she was considered a neutral outsider.
When Cui Bo heard them say this, he knew that the story was most likely true. After all, given Teacher He Saifei's temperament and status, it was impossible for her to accompany a few young people to commit fraud.
Do I really have to give up Tong Layue? !
Cui Bo gritted his teeth unwillingly.
At this time, Xu Kun continued to persuade her, "In fact, Huazhuzi's role is no less than Tong Layue's, and even more in total. And your acting style is obviously more suitable for playing Huazhuzi."
"But Huabuzi is just a vassal of the Queen!"
Cui Bo's rebuttal came out of her mouth. In addition to this reason, the identity of Kangxi's biological mother was also an important reason why she was determined to identify "Tong Layue".
"Haha~"
Hao Lei hugged her shoulders and sneered: "If you think you are excellent, you can also try to take the lead."
Xu Kun said sternly, "It's clear who is more suitable for Tong Layue now. If you don't want to change the track, you will cry when Wang Ling or Chen Jie wins the bouquet."
Hearing the words "change track", Cui Bo, who was feeling unwilling, suddenly raised his head and looked at Xu Kun in surprise.
She had been thinking that Xu Kun's change of track was a request for her to withdraw, but she didn't expect...
But she immediately sneered awkwardly: "You guys really went to great lengths to pave the way for Yang Rong?"
"What do you mean by paving the way for Yang Rong?"
Xu Kun was speechless and said unhappily, "I'm afraid that you'll think too much and ruin my reputation for nothing. You've been looking at me eight hundred times in the past half day. Even Mr. Li Fazeng finds it strange!"
