Chapter 21 Sister, welcome to scumbag me!
Buzz!
Han Xian had just finished washing his hands and was stretching in the living room when the Huawei Mate7 on the coffee table suddenly vibrated.
When I picked it up, I saw it was a message from Gulinazha.
Gulinaza: [Um...don't tell anyone about what just happened!]
Han Xian: [What happened just now? Weren't you in your room the whole time?]
Gulinaza: [(Kneeling in gratitude)]
Han Xian: [You're welcome]
Gulinaza: [I'll treat you to a meal sometime.]
Gulinaza: [This isn't just something I said casually! It's something I said with great seriousness!]
Gulinaza: [Send me any foods you can't eat!]
Han Xian: [I have no dietary restrictions. Looking forward to the beautiful lady's notification.]
Gulinaza: [(Handshake)]
Han Xian: [(Shakes hands)]
The two exchanged a few more messages, and then the phone went silent.
Han Xian stared blankly at the four characters "Gulinazha" at the top of the chat interface.
When Gulinazha caused her to sprain her ankle, he carried her back, and she brought him T-shirts and supplements, but he ended up making her injury worse.
He helped her heal her foot injury, but then tricked her so badly that she was humiliated and embarrassed in front of everyone. Afterwards, she sent him a WeChat message asking him to forget about her.
Given the various tropes of harem novels, Gulinaza must have had a deep impression of him.
She might be somewhat infatuated with his handsome face and good physique, or perhaps she also has some feelings for him.
But some things must be said in advance, otherwise if Gulinaza finds out the truth one day and flies away in a fit of anger, it would be a great loss.
After thinking it over, Han Xian sent a message to Gu Li Na Zha.
Han Xian: [Naza, beautiful lady, what's your ideal type in a relationship?]
Gulnazar: [How did we get to this topic?]
Han Xian: [Just chatting.]
Gulinaza: [First, he must be handsome; second, he must have a good personality; and most importantly, I'm insecure, so my other half must share the same values and have eyes only for me!]
Gulinaza: [I've finished talking. Now, tell me what your ideal type in a relationship is.]
Han Xian: [We're a bit different. I've been hurt in love, so I can't bear to hurt kind girls and want to protect them. That's why I have many different ideal types for love!]
As soon as the message was sent, some memories flashed through Han Xian's mind.
That was a picture of him chatting with a netizen named "乂" on QQ. The text in the chat interface was very sweet. It was an online romance that he would never forget, and it was an online romance that existed in his original world!
My memories of online dating are not only sweet, but also bitter.
He and the woman opposite him, "乂", broke up and got back together five times in five years, experiencing five parts sweetness and five parts bitterness.
Therefore, his heartbreak is not a lie; he has truly been hurt!
Gulinaza: [You've been heartbroken? I don't believe it!]
The blurry image shattered, and Han Xian left the memory, shaking his head as he continued texting Gu Lina: "Uh... I don't want to talk about the past."
Gulinaza: [Fine! If you don't want to talk about it, then don't! I guess... you must have a lot of good younger sisters and older sisters, right?]
Gulnazar: [(smiling)]
Han Xian: [You guessed wrong. To this day, I don't have a single good younger sister or older sister!]
Gulinaza: [Really? I don't believe you!]
Han Xian: [100% innocent! I just couldn't bear to hurt a kind girl like you. I wouldn't offer my protection to someone below your level.]
Gulnazar: [What level of kind girl am I?]
Han Xian: [Top-tier looks in the Chinese entertainment industry, very few in number.]
Gulnazar: [Then I should feel honored, Han, the heartbroken scumbag!]
Han Xian: [Whether you feel honored or not is up to you, but I'm warning you, don't give me any random nicknames! I'm not afraid to tell you, I really want to scumbag you, so if you don't want me to scumbag you, then don't say anything out of line.]
Gulinaza: [As long as you have the ability to be a jerk to me, I welcome you to be a jerk to me, you effeminate male version of Lin Daiyu!]
Gulnazar: [(Arrogant) (Sunglasses)]
Ah!
Gulinaza looked at the text on her phone screen, her beautiful lips curving slightly before disappearing.
With such a weak body, how can you still want to be a scumbag?
For the sake of a man's pride, he'll brag about anything!
If your sister turns against you, I'm really afraid you'll accidentally kill yourself!
……
Perhaps because Han Xian had exposed her little secret, Meng Ziyi stopped going to the gym to find Han Xian.
Aside from reminding Han Xian to eat three meals and take supplements on time via WeChat, she didn't show up at other times, and she always ate her three meals a day separately from Han Xian.
As for Gulinaza, having lost face in front of Han Xian, she naturally wouldn't go to Han Xian's room to find him.
She also reminded Han Xian to take the supplements she bought via WeChat, sending more than a dozen messages in two days. She even wanted to order food for Han Xian as a way of expressing her gratitude, but Han Xian politely declined.
Like Gulinaza, Meng Ziyi wanted to order food for Han Xian, but Han Xian declined.
Knowing that she would soon be filming action scenes with Han Xian, Lin Zhenxin had informed Han Xian well in advance, so for the past few days, Han Xian's lunch and dinner have been nutritious beef and mutton meals ordered by Lin Zhenxin.
Although it's shameful to live off one's brother, Han Xian accepts it all without hesitation. He even said he would go easy on Lin Zhenxin when they sparred, which earned him several 60-second "special thanks" messages from Lin Zhenxin.
……
January is the season when God cries, so the drizzle outside has been falling steadily.
The film crew did not stop working.
Indoor scenes are being filmed as usual, while outdoor scenes are always ready.
During this time, Han Xian was not idle either.
I braved the rain to buy more than a dozen books on acting, preparing to study them.
There's a saying that goes: good looks plus any other card is a winning hand, but playing a single card alone is a dead end.
He's devastatingly handsome, so handsome it's outrageous, but if all he has is the ability to look good, he's destined to be eliminated, so he needs to improve his acting skills.
Of course, going to the gym to work out is essential, and the rest of the time is spent practicing moves with the martial arts instructors in the martial arts troupe.
In two days, he practiced the moves dozens of times and even found a way to practice the "Heaven-Slaying Sword Technique" without exhausting himself. He even dragged Lin Zhenxin, who had rested well during the drama scenes, to practice the moves a few times.
The martial arts director had a high opinion of Han Xian, saying that his physical fitness was better than he had imagined and that he was very talented in action scenes. He mastered the fighting rhythm of the whole scene in just two days and suggested that the chief director, Director Cheng, let Han Xian try to act in the whole scene!
Director Cheng thought about it and then agreed.
On the third day, the clouds dispersed, the rain stopped, and the sun shone brightly. The crew prepared to film the fight scene between Han Xian and Lin Zhenxin.
All the actors with scenes have gone to film other movies.
Meng Ziyi, who had just finished filming a scene, and Gulinazha, who was temporarily not filming, stood behind the director watching.
Han Xian donned a black masked assassin outfit with stuffing inside, making him look tall, strong, and very intimidating.
Lin Zhenxin walked over in a full set of silver helmet and armor. Before speaking, he clasped his hands in a fist salute, "Brother Xian, please be gentle when you strike later. Don't be so quick to kill me and then kneel down beside me begging for my life."
Han Xian blinked. "You were the one who turned the tables on me during rehearsals, so you should have gone easy on me, right?"
"You said it yourself, that was just a rehearsal. I'm just afraid that during the actual filming, you might accidentally lose control of your strength and kill me with one sword."
Lin Zhenxin still can't figure out how that mysterious and strange sword strike was made that night.
Not only did he fail to see it clearly, but the staff present also failed to see it clearly.
But he asked the national martial arts instructor, who said that the sword was extremely dangerous. If you were hit, there was a 10% chance you would have to go to the hospital for emergency treatment, and a 90% chance you would be taken directly to the crematorium without any treatment.
These past two days, he has been going to the gym to work out whenever he has free time, and he has been watching Han Xian draw his sword again and again.
The image of him swiftly and cleanly chopping wood gave him the illusion that the grass on his grave would soon grow to a meter tall.
For his own safety, he had to inform Han Xian in advance; otherwise, he feared he wouldn't even have the chance to say hello.
Han Xian stretched his limbs, "Don't worry! I probably won't be able to unleash that sword strike."
The "Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique" is a skill from the game "A Chinese Ghost Story." The most common version of the skill he uses is called "Sword Drawing Technique."
During his training these past two days, he took some time to try out his sword-drawing technique.
The speed is only so-so; it's easy for the naked eye to catch, but a camera can capture it much more clearly.
Its power was also much weaker than he had imagined.
Pine wood table and stool legs, on the other hand, can be broken with a single sword strike.
Even with harder woods like jujube and ash, I can only manage to cut a large notch; I've never broken a piece in a long time, and my hands still ache from the impact.
Given the defensive capabilities of Lin Zhenxin's armor, at most it would leave a dent on his breastplate, not even qualifying as a minor injury.
As the two were talking, the set was ready and filming officially began.
