Chapter 277: Chapter 278: The Antagonist Overwhelms the Male Protagonist

Who?

Everyone turned their heads.

A limited-edition silver McLaren pulled up, the scissor doors slowly opening, and a young man dressed in a suit, covered in international brand names, slowly got out of the car.

"Ah, Teacher Cai, you’ve arrived!" Director Zhang, seeing this, hurried over with a trot, his attitude extremely ingratiating.

"Who’s this pretty boy?" Ye Wudao frowned.

"You don’t know him?" Xu Yuanyuan said with crossed arms, "His name is Cai Kun, he’s currently the top idol in Dragon Country, with no fewer fans than our Shiqi!"

"Has Miss Xia arrived?" Cai Kun asked with an air of arrogance.

"Heh, Miss Xia is here, right up ahead!" Director Zhang said obsequiously.

Cai Kun looked up, saw Xia Shiqi, and quickly reached out his hand with an eager expression, "Miss Xia, hello, my name is Cai Kun, my fans call me ’Love Kun,’ this is our first meeting, please give me your guidance!"

"No need!" Xia Shiqi did not shake hands, since Cai Kun had just said Ye Wudao wasn’t worthy, he naturally wasn’t worthy of shaking her hand either.

Cai Kun felt somewhat embarrassed and silently withdrew his hand.

"Miss Xia, I heard it’s your first time acting?" Cai Kun asked in a familiar manner, "If there’s anything you don’t understand, you can ask me!"

"I have no problems."

"Miss Xia is from Capital City, you must be visiting Mountain City for the first time, I know a five-star luxury hotel whose cuisine is delicious. If you’re free tonight, I can treat you to a candlelight dinner!" Cai Kun invited.

"You’re trying to hit on me, aren’t you? Are you thinking of getting me drunk during the big meal, then taking me to a hotel room?" Xia Shiqi’s lips suddenly curled into a faint smile.

"Uh!" Cai Kun’s face showed embarrassment, not expecting Xia Shiqi to see through his intentions, though naturally, he wasn’t foolish enough to admit it, "I just really admire Miss Xia, and I just wanted to be friends with you, that’s all."

"You’re not worthy of hitting on me, you know?" Xia Shiqi said with a mocking tone.

Cai Kun’s face, now somewhat unable to hang on.

Even though you, Xia Shiqi, are famous, the little empress of Dragon Country, owning millions of fans!

But I am in no way inferior, okay? Relying on a handsome face, winning the love of countless young girls, a true top idol!

Who knows how many actresses and washed-up stars want to curry favor with me!

You, Xia Shiqi, not giving me face like this, playing the pure and innocent girl!

We’re both in the entertainment industry, who’s clean, huh!

Cai Kun’s eyes revealed a lecherous glint, already plotting how to take advantage during the filming later—encircling a waist, touching a leg, nothing would be missed.

"Director Zhang, since both the male lead and the female lead are here, can we start filming?" the assistant director asked.

"Today we’re filming the scene where the male lead leaps to save the female lead in the woods, change into costumes, be in place in five minutes!" Director Zhang ordered.

Before long, the actors had all changed into their costumes.

"Wow, Shiqi looks so beautiful!" Xu Yuanyuan exclaimed, covering her mouth in surprise.

Ye Wudao gazed at Xia Shiqi and couldn’t help but be enraptured.

She was like a fairy, in a high-waisted robe, skin smooth as jade, a multitude of black hair, reaching down to her waist, a long sword at her side, as if a fairy had descended to earth, a presence as gentle as a secluded orchid.

Xia Shiqi’s fairy-like attire naturally drew the attention of the entire set.

"Miss Xia is so beautiful!"

"Not only does she sing well, she acts so nicely too, literally the perfect woman!" numerous crew members discussed amongst themselves.

Cai Kun also made his entrance, and it had to be said, this guy did indeed possess a face that men envied, dressed in black clothes, a sword at his waist, a proper swordsman.

"Today’s script involves the female lead encountering a killer in the dense forest, and the male lead descends from the sky, defeats the killer, and takes the beauty back!" Director Zhang instructed;

"Stunt performers to your places!"

Soon after, dozens of figures in black appeared.

"Miss Xia’s friend, yes, you, you’re one of the stunt performers, hurry up!" Director Zhang said

"Oh, okay." Ye Wudao nodded, quickly changed into the costume of one of the men in black, holding a wooden sword, and stood dumbfounded among the crowd.

"When we start acting later, remember you guys are the villains. You got that? Fierce, ferocious, terrifying! Only then will it look realistic, got it?" Director Zhang said.

"Understood!" all the stunt actors nodded.

"Action!" Director Zhang called out.

The camera cut to a dense forest.

Xia Shiqi’s pretty face was pale as she ran frantically without choosing her path.

"Kill him!"

It was at this moment that dozens of black-clad assassins surrounded Xia Shiqi.

"Heh heh, worthy of being a heroine, truly unparalleled in beauty!"

"Brothers, we’re in luck today!"

Just then, Cai Kun, hanging from a rope, descended from the sky, sword in hand; "Stop right there!"

All the black-clad assassins, upon seeing this, brandished their knives and said, "Kill him!"

Cai Kun waved his sword casually, and before it even got close, the assassins dramatically collapsed on the ground, quickly smearing the pig’s blood they had prepared on their bodies and feigning death.

"Ah!"

"Ah, this guy is too tough, let’s run for it!" The remaining few black-clad assassins performed quite exaggeratedly.

"Fellows, watch me!" Ye Wudao patted his companions on the shoulders and walked over with a wooden sword.

"Die!" Cai Kun struck with his sword towards Ye Wudao, expecting him to fall just like the other actors.

The result was completely different from what he had anticipated.

Whoosh!

Ye Wudao moved his feet slightly and easily dodged, then swung the wooden sword in his hand and struck Cai Kun’s abdomen like lightning.

Bang!

Cai Kun’s body flew like a broken kite, actually soaring seven or eight meters away before crashing to the ground, spitting blood and emitting a pig-slaughtering wail; "Aaah!"

Everyone on set was stunned.

What the hell?

What on earth is going on?!

"My God, Cai Kun flew so far, that’s so exaggerated!"

"Director Zhang, don’t we not have a script where the male lead gets injured?"

"We don’t," seeing the situation, Director Zhang hurriedly shouted; "Mr. Cai, get up, you’re the male lead, you have to kill this assassin!"

Cai Kun, enduring the pain, got up and charged over with his sword.

However, to Ye Wudao, Cai Kun was just a pretty boy, full of flaws!

Ye Wudao picked up the wooden sword in his hand and swung it casually.

Bang!

Cai Kun was struck and sent flying again, crashing to the ground, unable to move.

"Cut, cut, cut!" Director Zhang yelled to stop the scene and ran to Cai Kun’s side like a sprinter.

"This is bad, Mr. Cai has fainted; hurry, get him to a hospital!" Director Zhang shouted.

"There’s no need, he’s just temporarily unconscious, he’ll wake up shortly," Ye Wudao said indifferently.

Director Zhang immediately became angry and said, "You little punk, I let you act in this film for Miss Xia’s sake, do you even know how to act, hurting the leading man?"

"I’m the villain, and it’s my fault the male lead can’t beat me? Besides, I used the lightest strength!" Ye Wudao pouted.

"Exactly, if you’re weak, you’re weak, what excuses are you making?" Xia Shiqi chimed in.

Seeing Xia Shiqi speak up, Director Zhang did not dare to offend her.

Soon after, Cai Kun came to, gritting his teeth he said, "You little punk, you think you’re so tough? Let me tell you, there are plenty more in this world who are tougher than you!"

"Oh? Then I’d really like to see that," Ye Wudao said with a smile.
