After Crossing Through Ten Worlds, I Failed To Run Away - Chapter 13
[Chapter 13 The hero of the fantasy novel is here (4)]
The room fell into silence. Ji Ning didn’t know anything about what happened last night after he was drunk, so looking at Gu Chen and Herinos who were not speaking at the moment, he was a little puzzled, but the atmosphere was very strange.
However, Herinos soon returned to his usual expression, curled his lips, and said to Gu Chen, “I don’t want anything to happen to Xiao Ning. I will take good care of him. What else do you have to say?
” He was still smiling, but his attitude was obviously rather cold. Seeing this, Gu Chen didn’t say anything more. He nodded to Ji Ning again, and said, “Then I’ll go first, senior, take care of your health, we’ll have something to do in the future. I have been in contact with each other often, and we have agreed to invite you to dinner.”
“En.”
Ji Ning nodded slightly, paused for a moment, and then added: “When you go back, work hard and see you on set later.”
Gu Chen felt warm when he heard this . , because when Ji Ning spoke, the expression on his face was a bit unnatural. After all, with his cold personality, it was rare for him to show such a gentle side in front of others.
Does this mean that the distance between him and Ji Ning is one step closer?
It was just a simple sentence, but the cloud that had been lingering in Gu Chen’s heart since last night was instantly swept away. A gentle smile appeared in his eyes, and he nodded and said, “Thank you, senior, I will definitely work harder.”
“It’s better for you.”
But soon, Ji Ning put away the unnaturalness, raised his chin slightly, glanced at Gu Chen, and said, “If it’s because of you, Gu Yingdi’s reputation will also be damaged. I can’t forgive you.”
Gu Chen was startled: “Gu Yingdi? Senior, are you…”
“I’m a fan of Gu Chen’s film.” Ji Ning answered without hesitation, but immediately said without mercy, “Of course I’m not referring to you, I’m talking about the one-hundred-year-old Gu Chen.”
“…I understand.” Gu Chen replied thoughtfully, then smiled and looked at Ji Ning, “Looks like my senior and I We have common interests, in fact, I am also a fan of Gu Yingdi, and I have seen all his works.”
His way of speaking was so natural that Ji Ning couldn’t help but glance at him – he was indeed one of the greatest actors in the history of movies, even when he said that he was his fan, his expression was so natural and true , there is no sense of embarrassment at all.
Even though Ji Ning himself was lying, he was not a fan of Gu Chen, but because he knew about Gu Chen’s situation and in order to attack Gu Chen, he would say this in front of Gu Chen.
As the male protagonist of “Rebirth of the Star Actor”, the era Gu Chen was reborn was not in another world, but in the same planet, an era a hundred years after his death, in this era, everyone has heard of the actor Gu Chen. The name has also seen his works.
A hundred years ago, Gu Chen was the most famous actor in contemporary times and was known as a peerless genius in the entertainment industry. Before his death in a car accident, he had won countless honors and awards. Even though his life was short, his achievements had already surpassed those of his predecessors. , has also become an insurmountable peak for future generations.
And Gu Chen’s premature death also added a bit of legendary color to his brilliant life. In the interstellar era a hundred years later, his works are still sought after by people. The highest honor in the film industry, the “Violet Award” is based on Gu Chen’s favorite flower is named after, and even the current film system has undergone a great change because of Gu Chen.
Of course, the author’s way of writing this kind of book is to make Gu Chen surpass his previous life achievements after rebirth, and at the beginning, the plot is also deliberately set up so that after the rebirth, Gu Chen is trapped in his previous life and encounters a big problem. trouble.
After his rebirth, Gu Chen’s identity was an 18th-tier rookie star. The original owner happened to have the same name as Gu Chen, also called Gu Chen, and even his appearance was somewhat similar to Gu Chen.
He is somewhat similar to the actor Gu Chen, and the name is exactly the same. This made the original owner cause quite a stir when he just debuted. Everyone paid great attention to him, but newcomers often cannot bear such pressure. The same is true for the original owner, he His performance and the reputation he carried were simply no match, and he quickly disappointed everyone.
Everyone’s attention and expectations for the original owner turned into hatred and curses. Soon he could not receive any resources, and the company had to hide him. Overnight, he was driven to a dead end.
The despairing original owner chose to end his own life, and the actor Gu Chen a hundred years ago was reborn on his body, creating a brilliance that surpassed his previous life – this is the main plot of “Rebirth of the Star Actor”.
He has an understanding of the background of the original book, and is as experienced as Ji Ning. He has drawn up a strategy to attack Gu Chen from the very beginning—he wants to pretend to be the fanboy of the actor Gu Chen, be cold to the current Gu Chen, and at the same time show his devotion to the actor. Fanaticism, using contrast to win Gu Chen’s favor.
Ji Ning wants to gradually build up his image as a fanatical movie star fan, so from now on, he will consciously reveal this information to Gu Chen.
So when Gu Chen said that he also liked Gu Yingdi, Ji Ning immediately showed a hint of interest and asked, “Which of him do you like the most—”
But as if thinking of something, his expression suddenly turned cold. After a while, he said lightly: “You like him? Since you like him, don’t be as bad as before.”
He was referring to the fact that the previous original owner behaved too badly.
“Okay, I promise to senior.”
Gu Chen nodded with a smile, recalling how Ji Ning took the initiative to talk to him when he was standing alone a few days ago.
Thinking that Ji Ning came to talk to him now because he liked the actor who was an actor in the previous life, right?
Although everyone disliked him now, and even Ji Ning might actually hold grudges against him, at least he was willing to support this newcomer who was somewhat similar to his idol.
And he didn’t expect that Ji Ning actually liked him…
Gu Chen’s heart instantly softened, and he felt so full of joy in his heart that even the corners of his eyes were stained with a smile.
This is probably the best news he has heard since his rebirth until now.
…
Gu Chen left, and there was only Ji Ning and a very unhappy Hirinos left in the house. After waiting for a while, Ji Ning’s driver came to pick him up at the hotel and took him back to the villa where he lived alone in a private aircraft.
Herinos was also with him. After all, he had said before that he would stay with Ji Ning for a while, and now he naturally followed Ji Ning to his residence.
Ji Ning also communicated with his manager on the aircraft, saying that he was going to rest for a while and would not do any activities during this time.
After all, he came to this world to attack Gu Chen, and he has no professionalism. He doesn’t want to accept films or activities that have nothing to do with Gu Chen. As for the manager, he is also the subordinate of Ji Ning’s father. decision has never shown any dissent.
Back at the villa, there was nothing to do. There was still some time before he and Gu Chen had the chance to collaborate on a movie. These days, Ji Ning had been peaceful and even seemed to have nothing to do. He basically watched the movie star Gu Chen in the villa. Chen’s film.
Most of today’s movies are holographic movies, which can make the audience more immersed in the atmosphere, but Gu Chen’s previous life filmed a hundred years ago. At that time, there was no holographic technology and no holographic imaging, only through the screen. watch.
In the villa, Ji Ning sat on the ground, holding a notebook in his hand, carefully watching the screen on the wall, recording some details, and when it came to the exciting episode, he would watch it again and again, showing a contemplative expression from time to time.
“You like this actor so much?”
Herinos sat next to Ji Ning and asked with great interest.
He was facing in the opposite direction of Ji Ning, in order not to look at the face on the screen – having a Gu Chen circling around Ji Ning was already annoying enough, but there was another Gu Chen who was still It is very attractive to Ji Ning. The most disgusting thing is that these two Gu Chens look quite alike, so that when he sees this face now, Herinos will be physically disgusted, and he suspects that the current Gu Chen is Not the reincarnation of this actor.
“Why not? He’s the most talented actor I’ve ever seen.”
Ji Ning answered Herinos’ words, and it wasn’t that he was lying. Gu Chen was indeed amazingly talented and talented. He had seen Gu Chen’s movies, and even he could gain something from it.
This is not easy. After all, his acting time is much longer than any other actor. Every world has to play its own role all the time, and some worlds have a long time span. The world of self-cultivation has been around for hundreds of years.
The blood prince pursed his lips and was about to say something when the housekeeping robot in the villa suddenly entered the house and automatically asked, “Someone is visiting from outside the house, are you allowed to enter?”
Someone came, who? No one contacted him to come over.
Ji Ning ordered the robot to broadcast the scene in front of the villa’s gate, wanting to see who the visitor was, but unexpectedly, the gate was completely empty, and there was not a single person.
“Someone is visiting from outside the house, are you allowed to enter?”
“Are you allowed to enter?” The
robot repeated over and over again, and the mechanized voice echoed in the villa, revealing a bit of weirdness and weirdness.
Obviously no one is there, but how can it be broadcast all the time? Was the robot malfunctioning, or was it…
Ji Ning suddenly had an ominous premonition. Herinos also stood up as if feeling a sense of it, and removed his human appearance. His dark red pupils flashed a light, revealing a dangerous aura. .
The robot suddenly cracked the corners of its mouth, and a pleasant male voice came out.
“I’ve come to see you, Ningning, aren’t you welcome to go in?” With
a “squeak”, the door opened, a cold air blew in from the outside, and a foot in black leather shoes entered the door .
The figure of Huo Wuling appeared outside the door. His eyebrows and eyes were still beautiful and affectionate, his eyes were dark and his complexion was pale, but he was a little more alive than before.
But the shadow he cast on the ground showed a terrifying sight. It was not in the shape of a person at all, but was slowly wriggling, as if hiding a lot of terrible things.
This time, it’s not the projection, but Huo Wuling’s deity!
When he felt this aura, Ji Ning immediately hid behind Herinos, took a look from a distance, and immediately determined that this was Huo Wuling’s real person.
Herinos looked at Huo Wuling with a sneer, and said, “Uninvited guests, of course, will not be welcomed at all.”
“Is that so…”
Huo Wuling nodded with a smile, but quickly said: “But I’m asking Ningning, not you.” In the
next second, the roof suddenly cracked, and a rushing river of blood poured down from the crack and fell towards Huo Wuling’s head.
Herinos raised his hand and manipulated the river of blood to attack Huo Wuling. When the blood bead fell on Huo Wuling’s shoulder, Huo Wuling’s figure suddenly burst, turned into the shape of an evil ghost, and screamed with smoke. disappeared into the house.
“It’s really dangerous, don’t you say hello?”
Huo Wuling stood on the coffee table on the other side, looked at Herinos and Ji Ning who was being protected by him, waved and said with a smile: ” Ning Ning, come here, come to my side, I don’t want to hurt you.”
Ji Ning stood still, he didn’t believe Huo Wuling’s words at all. Huo Wuling said not to hurt him? That must be to kill him directly, there is no other possibility.
“I’m very sad, Ningning, you won’t listen to me anymore.”
Huo Wuling’s smile gradually disappeared from his face, his face became expressionless and his eyes were dark.
“I wanted to keep your body, but you’re so wicked, I’ll break you as punishment.”
A lot of weird things crawled out of his shadow, forming a circle , surrounded the two of Herinos and Ji Ning.
“As long as you die in pain and turn into a ghost, you will come back to me again. Am I right?”
The author has something to say:
Ji Ning: You’re right.
