Mr Fu, I Really Love You-Chapter 1434 - Too Heavy a Burden

Chapter 1434: Too Heavy a Burden

Shi Hanchu returned to his senses. “Let’s go. We still have to go for the script reading.”

During the script reading, the entire production crew would sit in the meeting room while the actors read their script. The director and scriptwriter would review their tone and see if there were things in the script that need changing.

Shi Hanchu and Su Manman sat next to each other, reading the script.

If there was anything different about her tone compared to what Director Chen wanted, she would bring it up and discuss it with everyone.

After all, due to the intricacies of the country’s culture, the same sentence pronounced in different tones gave different meanings.

Director Chen Wenhua was an especially meticulous director. He needed to come to a consensus with the actors in every aspect.

Most actors would follow the director’s opinion.

But Su Manman, Shi Hanchu and Ren Shanze were all actors with outstanding skills. How could they easily compromise with the director?

They had only covered one-fifth of the script, but their discussion went on until 11:30 that night.

Su Manman returned to the suite tiredly. The moment she entered the room, she let the tap water into her bath.

Dong Dong put Su Manman’s pajamas aside and was about to leave.

“What’s with the long face? It’s almost falling…” Su Manman joked.

Dong Dong raised her head and turned her sour face to Su Manman. “It’s because of that second female lead. She went up knocking on God Shi’s door just now, not caring about the time at all. Isn’t she just trying to create a scandal for him?”

Su Manman narrowed her eyes…

There had been many actresses who wanted to get close to Shi Hanchu, Shi Hanchu had never bothered with them.

Su Manman wasn’t worried about Shi Hanchu, but this second female lead was really annoying.

After soaking in a beautiful bubble bath, Su Manman put on her mask and heard her stylist say that Du Lingyang was there to look for her when she was still discussing the script with Director Chen Wenhua.

Su Manman, who was massaging her face with a facial roller, halted her action. She lowered her gaze and took a sip of water with her straw, appearing indifferent. “Why was he looking for me?”

“Mr. Du didn’t say…” The young lady’s eyes sparkled. “But Mr. Du really looks so handsome up close! Previously, I didn’t even dare to come up to him on the set of ‘The Olden Days.’ I only dared to look from afar. I didn’t expect Mr. Du to be so gentlemanly… so easy to talk to and so friendly. It’s no wonder that the movie queen Jiang Mingzhu had chosen Du Lingyang instead of God Shi.”

Su Manman paused in her actions of drinking water. “You would choose Du Lingyang over God Shi?”

The young lady nodded vigorously. “Right! Sister Manman, didn’t you know?”

This young lady was older than Su Manman. Perhaps because Su Manman’s aura was too strong, she subconsciously called her Sister Manman…

“What?” Su Manman sat up straight, seemingly interested.

“The rumors said that God Shi and Du Lingyang, who wasn’t so famous back then, chased after Jiang Mingzhu, but in the end, Jiang Mingzhu chose Du Lingyang!” The young lady looked serious, as if she had seen this with her own eyes. “After all, Mr. Du is so gentle, and God Shi is so cold… That’s why I’m sure that must be the reason why Jiang Mingzhu chose Mr. Du!”

Su Manman’s brows furrowed slightly, but due to the facial mask she was wearing, it wasn’t too obvious.

“You are overthinking it. God Shi was clearly Jiang Mingzhu’s close friend. He’s the only friend she had ever acknowledged to the public.” Su Manman lied down.

“What! Sister Manman, you really don’t know!” The young lady moved closer to Su Manman and said to her, “The rumors have it that God Shi had confessed to Jiang Mingzhu but got rejected. However, Jiang Mingzhu didn’t want to embarrass him, and she was afraid that it wouldn’t be convenient for them to work together in the future, so she told the public that… God Shi is her close friend!”

Before Su Manman could deny it, the young lady continued, “Otherwise, when Jiang Mingzhu had just died, how did her best friend Meng Yuqiao suddenly appear? Didn’t she say that God Shi was her only friend? Then what about Meng Yuqiao…”

What the hell was this about Meng Yuqiao?

Su Manman opened her mouth, but she couldn’t say anything…

She was Su Manman now, not Jiang Mingzhu.

She couldn’t tell this young lady that Meng Yuqiao wasn’t her friend, nor could she tell this young lady… that Shi Hanchu had never confessed to her.

Moreover…

There was no way to tell everyone.

If Shi Hanchu had confessed to her back then…

There was no doubt that she would have been with Shi Hanchu. Du Lingyang wouldn’t have stood a chance.

Then, nothing would have happened…

She wouldn’t have become Su Manman either.

However, if she hadn’t died and gotten a second chance in life, she probably wouldn’t have seen through it and wouldn’t have taken the initiative to pursue Shi Hanchu!

Even if… she was friends with Shi Hanchu for the rest of her life, keeping her thoughts in her heart and not saying it out loud.

Perhaps it was because Jiang Mingzhu’s burden was too heavy.

Su Manman lowered her gaze and could only listen to the young lady gossiping about the fabricated story.

Perhaps it was because a fabricated story was more exciting and had a story behind it, but now they all thought it was true!

Even Shi Hanchu’s fans believed that it was true. They imagined Shi Hanchu to be a hopeless romantic.

Now that Su Manman had appeared, Shi Hanchu’s fans hoped that Shi Hanchu could be together with Su Manman. They hoped that Su Manman would be able to soothe the pain that Shi Hanchu suffered from Jiang Mingzhu’s death.

“Although God Shi’s fans wished for you two to be together, and I had thought the same way too. But after meeting Du Lingyang, Sister Manman… I really feel that you…”

“Du Lingyang’s girlfriend is Meng Yuqiao!” Su Manman looked at the young lady and joked. “Don’t be naughty at such a young age. You’re asking me to steal someone else’s man. This kind of thing is a feud that can’t be reconciled. Moreover, you’re especially shameless and not offline.”

“No, no! That’s not what I meant!” The young lady blushed at Su Manman’s words. “What I mean is, I feel that you should consider being with a gentle person like Du Lingyang in the future!”

Hur…

Gentle? Du Lingyang?

He was as gentle as a knife…

A fatal stab!

Hadn’t Du Lingyang gently taken her life?

“Didn’t Dong Dong tell you that I like God Shi?” Su Manman asked.

“Huh?” The young lady was surprised.

Su Manman slowly picked up a magazine at the side and flipped it open. She said with a smile, “In the future, it’s better to talk more in front of me. I’m happy to hear it!”

The young lady’s face turned even redder. She nodded and said after a long while, “God Shi… is actually very handsome! It’s rare to find a man as handsome as God Shi in the entertainment industry!”

The smile in Su Manman’s eyes intensified. “Of course…”

In Su Manman’s eyes, Shi Hanchu was the world’s most handsome man!
