The Queen’s Rise to the Top

Chapter 209

When Nan Xiangwan returned to her own compartment in the evening, everyone else had almost finished eating, but were chatting animatedly.

However, the posture of Zhao Tiancheng and Ge Dongxuan!

Facing the same direction, making the same movements, with the same expressions.

Equally drunk and unable to get up!

Unbearable to look at!

Exactly like grandfather and grandson!

The fattest and the one who could howl the most were dead drunk like mud, really tiring out the others.

So Nan Xiangwan stood up!

When she reached out her hand and took over Ge Dongxuan, who was leaning on Yun Qian's shoulder, it was as if her whole body was coated in a layer of light.

A goddess descended to earth!

Yun Qian worshipfully looked at her right then and there.

With one hand, Nan Xiangwan easily picked up Ge Dongxuan.

Deng Si Nan blankly looked at this scene: "This picture, it's so familiar."

Sha Ling: "Is this picking up Xuanxuan like a cat?"

Zhou Wenxia: "Pfft-"

As for Zhao Tiancheng, after Nan Xiangwan picked up Ge Dongxuan, she could no longer pick him up.

He really wasn't ordinarily fat.

At least three times as heavy as Ge Dongxuan right!

So the people from Nanbei Entertainment were called over to move Zhao Tiancheng back.

The Seven Girls of Destiny collectively went back to the villa to stay.

On the road back, Ge Dongxuan, drunk, kept on howling all the way.

These days, in addition to preparing for the concert, each person also had their own independent activities to carry out, not to mention that Nan Xiangwan had been desperately cramming for exams during that time.

So it wasn't easy for everyone to get together, and today's dinner made everyone very happy.

Returning to the room.

Nan Xiangwan searched online for a while.

Tan Shen, 29 years old, with a rich performing career.

He was a very skilled actor.

Right then, a WeChat message came in.

'Gu Beihuai: The director just leaked to me that the second male lead has been decided.'

'Gu Beihuai: The other projects for the movie have also been prepared, there will be training in a week, which happens to be a chance to get in contact with the cast, especially the second male lead. You have a lot of fight scenes with him, so at that time you can communicate with him, learn acting experience from him, for example how to make the fighting look good on camera. He's a very capable actor who has won the Best Actor award twice. The cast configuration for this movie is very good, and it has a big budget, so you must work hard!'

As for Gu Beihuai himself, he was playing the first male lead, and had a superior-subordinate relationship with the female lead.

There were no fight scenes, but there were three minutes of emotional scenes.

The whole movie was 120 minutes, just three minutes of emotional plotline, and it was the kind of emotional scene without any physical contact.

It was compressed to the extreme!

But Gu Beihuai was very satisfied, it was enough.

'Nan Xiangwan: Tan Shen? I ran into him at the hot pot restaurant today and added him on WeChat.'

Gu Beihuai paused for a moment, and the torrent of words he was typing abruptly stopped.

'Gu Beihuai: Oh.'

'Nan Xiangwan: I don't like him.'

'Gu Beihuai: Don't worry, I don't like him either, but he was jointly recommended by the chief director and several deputy directors. His acting skills are recognized by the director team. The second male lead is the villain anyway, so it's just fighting scenes, which you're good at, right?'

'Nan Xiangwan: Then can I beat him to death?'

'Gu Beihuai: ......'

'Gu Beihuai: What's going on? Did he get handsy with you?'

After sending this message, Gu Beihuai thought it was wrong, so he immediately followed up with another sentence.

'Gu Beihuai: Was he rude to you at the hot pot restaurant?'

After sending this, Gu Beihuai still felt it was wrong.

It was impossible for him to get handsy. The little cub was unmatched in martial power.

Last time she almost failed to grab the cake!

It was also unlikely that he was rude. Tan Shen was an exceptionally cautious person who never made a mistake at any occasion.

There was no way he would leave any verbal disputes.

Otherwise the director team would not have unanimously recommended him.

Just what was it that made the little cub have this inexplicable hostility towards him?

In an instant, Gu Beihuai thought of many possibilities, and even started considering whether to directly replace the second male lead using capital power.

At this time, a message came in from Nan Xiangwan.

A long one!

'Nan Xiangwan: What gives him the right to be so much taller than me? This guy is almost 1.9 meters right? Damn! He's 20 centimeters taller than me! Converted to the strength system, I have to work twice as hard as him to have equivalent physical fitness! Why? I'm not convinced! '

'Gu Beihuai: ......'

Oh, so it was because of this.

He was overthinking it!

As expected, the little cub's brain circuits were not something ordinary people could guess.

She was obsessed with height, and it even aroused her competitive spirit!

But this problem......

Gu Beihuai suddenly looked at himself.

Crap!

He was about 15 centimeters taller than the little cub, she definitely wouldn't like him either.

Could he still amputate his limbs now?

----------------

7am the next morning.

Xiao Chen arrived early at Tan Shen's villa area.

He conscientiously started the vehicle, turned on the air conditioning, and waited.

Tan Shen came out at 7:20am, and as soon as he got in the car he apologized: "Sorry for the long wait."

Xiao Chen said, "Mr. Tan Shen, what are you saying, this is all my duty."

After speaking, he started the vehicle.

The tires had just started rolling!

Suddenly there was a bump and a jolt, and the car body tilted slightly.

Xiao Chen slammed on the brakes in panic, and anxiously got out to check.

Tan Shen then calmly pushed open the car door: "No rush, must've run over a rock right?"

At this time, Xiao Chen's face was pale as he stared fixedly at the blood under the tire!

A dog had been cruelly run over by the tire, and its body was......

Tan Shen: "This!"

Xiao Chen was about to cry: "Mr. Tan Shen, I, I......"

Tan Shen quickly tried to comfort him: "It's fine, it's fine Xiao Chen, take deep breaths, relax."

Seeing the scene before him, the image was so bloody that Xiao Chen couldn't breathe.

He realized he felt faint at the sight of blood!

Tan Shen hurriedly turned his body around: "Alright, I'll take care of it."

After speaking, he called the housekeeper out.

As soon as the housekeeper saw this scene she cried out: "Oh my! No wonder it didn't come out this morning no matter how much I called! How could this happen!"

The stray dog had been injured and was fed here for a few days. The housekeeper had gradually grown to like it, wanting to take it to get treated and adopt it when she had time.

Who would've thought!

It got crushed to death!

Xiao Chen faced away from the scene, not daring to look, and could only repeatedly apologize.

"I'm sorry! Auntie I'm sorry! I'm really sorry!"

Tan Shen comforted the housekeeper's grieving emotions while also reassuring Xiao Chen's guilty conscience.

The housekeeper cried and said, "It's alright sir, you and Xiao Chen still have things to do right? Hurry and go, it's just a stray dog, I was just a bit emotional earlier. I'll clean it up. Don't worry Xiao Chen, auntie's not upset!"

Tan Shen said: "Ai! Don't feed stray dogs from now on okay? It was probably sleeping under my car. Xiao Chen didn't notice when driving, too pitiful."

The housekeeper wiped her tears again: "Yes! Won't feed them anymore!"

Xiao Chen was still apologizing, but also worried about affecting Tan Shen's schedule.

He could only get in the driver's seat full of self-reproach and drive away.

On the parking spot, there was a puddle of blood on the ground.

Auntie housekeeper was cleaning it up.

All the way until getting on the overpass.

Xiao Chen was silent the whole time, feeling so guilty he was about to cry!

Tan Shen sat in the back seat, hidden in an unseen corner, faintly smiling.
