Let’s Squander A Billion First!

Chapter 1827: Chapter 1827: Tomorrow’s Star (29)

[I really can’t watch anymore, I’ve tried my best for my husband, but this acting, I’m a bit hopeless.]

[Think about the fact that she still has the face to carry on, doesn’t it make you feel better?]

[But how can you tell where the face is in her current state!]

[Oh, my poor husband, boo hoo hoo, we can’t let him lose face!!!]

[Let’s crowdfund to enroll her in a class.]

[I agree.]

[Seconded.]

Without the person’s knowledge, this group of fans is already planning to crowdfund to enroll the person in a class to improve her acting skills.

”Knock knock—”

Chuzheng opened the door, Gu Yu was sitting outside in a wheelchair, a blanket draped over his legs, hands folded in front of him, sitting coolly.

”Anything up?”

Chuzheng held the door, looking at Gu Yu with curiosity.

A Good Person Card came to find me proactively!

Should I...

Gu Yu interrupted Chuzheng’s wild thoughts: ”Do you want to improve your acting skills?”

”Nope.” Chuzheng flatly rejected.

Gu Yu’s follow-up words got stuck in his throat, he glared at Chuzheng, spun his wheel to change direction, and quickly left.

Chuzheng: ”...”

Seconds later, Gu Yu came back: ”Do you know what people online are saying about you now?”

”Does it really matter to you what they say?” Who hasn’t been criticized, it’s nothing, I can take it!

Gu Yu gritted his teeth: ”Now you’re my fiancée, it’s my reputation you’re ruining.”

Chuzheng casually replied: ”Then just cover your face.”

Gu Yu: ”...”

Feel like strangling this woman!

[Sis, Gu Yu is trying to teach you, why are you opposing him?] King’s Account couldn’t bear it.

Chuzheng: ”...”

If he wants to teach me, just say so, instead of beating around the bush, I damned thought he came to mock me!

[...]

Gu Yu felt like he was asking for trouble, spun his wheelchair to leave.

Just as he turned, the wheelchair couldn’t move, he looked back to see Chuzheng holding onto his wheelchair.

”What are you doing?”

Chuzheng asked calmly: ”Mr. Gu, what was the first thing you said?”

The first thing? Gu Yu thought for a moment: ”Do you know what people online are saying about you now?”

”The sentence before that.”

”Do you want to improve your acting skills?”

Chuzheng nodded seriously with a straight face: ”Yes.”

Gu Yu: ”...”

Crazy!

-

Gu Yu has a professional practice room, he brought Chuzheng over, inside were several sections with professional books and various videos.

Gu Yu didn’t rise to fame merely on looks, he had skill and acting chops.

Once inside, Gu Yu first picked a few books and tossed them to Chuzheng: ”Read these first.”

Chuzheng: ”...”

No hands-on tutoring?

What’s the point of reading books?

The bastard is tricking me, isn’t he?

Chuzheng didn’t read the books, just stared at Gu Yu, causing him discomfort: ”Why are you looking at me, read the books!”

Chuzheng: ”...”

Well.

You be fierce as you like, there will be a time you’ll cry.

Chuzheng found a spot to sit down, opened the books given by Gu Yu, they were basic professional books, not interesting to Chuzheng, but she still read them seriously.

Gu Yu tutored Chuzheng, she did study seriously, she could repeat everything from the books, but Gu Yu felt she wasn’t really engaged, she merely memorized the book content.

Still, considering she memorized the content in such a short time, Gu Yu felt conflicted inside.

The Butler peeked inside through the gap, seeing the two getting along harmoniously, deftly snapped a picture and sent it to Old Madam Gu.

Old Madam Gu called immediately: ”Are these youngsters getting on so well?”

The Butler lowered his voice: ”Mr. Gu and Miss Qin have been getting along well recently, and he seems to be in better spirits.”

If Gu Yu heard this from the Butler, his mood would likely improve – out of anger.

”Looks like that master didn’t deceive me.” Old Madam Gu murmured happily: ”If there’s any development, let me know and take good care of them.”

The Butler ended the call, pondering over Old Madam Gu’s words.

What master?

When did Old Madam Gu consult a master?

Miss Qin and their Mr. Gu had their engagement set ages ago, right?

The Butler couldn’t figure it out, shook his head, and left the practice room to continue his chores.

-

Inside the practice room.

Gu Yu tossed Chuzheng a script: ”Pick a section and perform it for me later.” Gu Yu abandoned teaching theory.

Chuzheng skimmed through, the script was from a period drama Gu Yu once acted in, when he hadn’t yet hit big, playing the second male lead.

Chuzheng quickly picked the character and scene she liked.

Gu Yu took a call, after hanging up, saw Chuzheng stand up and walk towards him.

”Did you finish?”

Chuzheng didn’t answer, continued towards him with an imposing aura, oddly intimidating.

Before Gu Yu could react, the girl was before him, grasping his chin, lips parting slightly: ”Do you really think you can go back to being a princess?”

First shocked that Chuzheng dared grab his chin, then drawn to Chuzheng’s words; she was quoting lines... Those damned lines were from the villain, moreover the villain was a male!

”Do you still hope they’ll come rescue you? They’ve forgotten about you, you’re expendable, but if you’re with me, it’s different, I’ll make you noble, and those who trampled you pay the price.”

Gu Yu looked at the person in front of him, from those eyes seemed to genuinely see a villain sacrificing everything for the princess, cold and ruthless, yet reserving all warmth for a princess who doesn’t love him.

The character did bad things, yet had moving parts that, if portrayed well, would earn a lot of tears.

But the actor didn’t portray such villainy, nor the tender contrast, hence the role failed, criticized heavily.

Chuzheng released Gu Yu: ”How was it?” Am I awesome or what!

Gu Yu returned to his senses, touched his chin where she’d grabbed: ”You...” What did she take him for!! Who’s damned a princess!

Gu Yu endured: ”You just acted the villain, I told you to choose a suitable role, why choose the villain?”

”...” You didn’t say I couldn’t act the villain, it suits me—handsome and cool!!

Gu Yu saw Chuzheng playing dead and silent, recalling her recent behavior, calmly picked up the script and turned to a page: ”This scene.”

Chuzheng glanced, expressionless dropped the script: ”I’m hungry.” Then strode out of the practice room.

Letting her do the female lead’s crying scene, is he a devil!!

Could a big boss like her cry?

Gu Yu: ”...”

Gu Yu quickly concluded, Chuzheng only suited roles cold and ruthless, with a poker face, yet her commanding presence overwhelming everything.

No... not that she suited.

She only acted such roles, anything else, she immediately found excuses to dodge.
