Chapter 123: Chapter 123: Why Are You Hostile Towards Me?
The third male lead!
In the original novel, the silly, sweet and weak female lead was Gu Manxi, the male lead was Song Chen, the second male lead was the affectionate Lu Shanhe, the third male lead was the best actor Jiang Cheng, the fourth male lead was Doctor Fang Zheng, and the fifth male lead might be Cheng Qi, in addition, there were a few male supporting characters who did not have many scenes.
Of course, some people would retort, why were all the handsome guys around the female lead? This did not make sense!
Why are there so many handsome guys around Gu Manxi?
What a joke. Gu Manxi was the female protagonist of a melodramatic novel. She definitely had the aura of a female protagonist.
If there weren’t four or five extremely handsome male supporting actors who loved the female protagonist to death, and if there weren’t two or three male supporting actors who were captivated by Manxi, then this story wasn’t worthy of being called a melodramatic romance novel!
“You are?” Jiang Cheng noticed the five-year-old girl in front of the computer desk and raised his eyebrows.
Gu Chu put down her fair little paws and revealed a sweet smile.
Ever since she went from the 20-year-old king of hackers to a five-year-old girl, Gu Chu had always believed in the survival of the fittest. She pretended to be cute when she met people so that she could minimize the guard of others.
Gu Chu tilted her small head and looked surprised. “L-Lu Chu? Are You Lu Chu? I often see you on TV. Mommy and I like you the most.”
Lu Chu was a character in an esports drama series that Jiang Cheng starred in last year.
Jiang Cheng walked into the room. “I’m Jiang Cheng. Who are you?”
Gu Chu grinned. “My name is Chuchu. My real name is Gu Chu. I’m going to turn six soon, and I’ll be graduating from kindergarten and going into grade 1 soon.”
As Gu Chu spoke, the plot of Jiang Cheng in the original novel surfaced in her mind.
There were many descriptions of Jiang Cheng in the original novel. The author used a bunch of gorgeous adjectives (or maybe it was to make up the word count) to describe Jiang Cheng’s excellent acting skills and perfect modeling face. Jiang Cheng and Gu Manxi had worked together on a movie before. Perhaps he had developed a good impression of her. Since then, Jiang Cheng had always wanted to work with Gu Manxi.
After Gu Manxi retired from the industry, Jiang Cheng was quite emotional. He often had tea and chatted with director Lu Shanhe, talking about Gu Manxi and movies.
In Gu Chu’s opinion, the third male lead Jiang Cheng’s love for Gu Manxi was hidden and hard to detect.
He admired Gu Manxi’s talent and beauty, and he could not forget her. Many years later, Gu Manxi died tragically in a foreign land. Jiang Cheng and the devastated Lu Shanhe went to visit Gu Manxi’s grave together, feeling depressed for a long time.
“Chuchu…” Jiang Cheng sized up the five-year-old girl from head to toe. She was extremely cute, her eyes were bright and crystal clear, and her chubby little face was full of smiles. She was very likable.
However, Jiang Cheng felt that this little child’s smile was a little fake.
He was a good actor, and he could see through the slightest flaw in her expression.
“Chuchu, do you know where Director Lu Is?” Jiang Cheng sat down on the chair beside Gu Chu and skillfully made a cup of hot tea with Lu Shanhe’s teacup. He sipped it gently and examined Gu Chu from the corner of his eye.
Gu Chu scratched her head. “Uncle Lu is busy with something and will be back soon. He told me to play on the computer in my room and said that running around would make Mommy worried.”
Gu Chu felt that there was something wrong with the way the third male lead was looking at her. This reminded her of that little brat, Cheng Qi. At such a young age, he seemed to have the ability to see through her disguise.
Gu Chu even faintly sensed hostility.
Yes, this third male lead whom she had never met before, the extremely handsome Jiang Cheng, was hostile towards her?
Gu Chu could not figure out why…
