Do You Still Hate Her? 28 – Game Win/Loss | Reversal of Fortunes

Everything was indeed as Shang Lu and Song Zeqian had suspected.

The following performance had no script at all, and they were indeed the main characters. Ye Lu was the ultimate protagonist, the Little Pig.

The three of Shang Lu, Lin Yanyan, and Xu Ze, who were chosen by Ye Lu to play the roles of props, appear to have an easy task, but in reality, they have another responsibility—to serve as narrators. The entire story’s progression depends on them to arrange, and the “Little Pig Family” must follow the narrator’s instructions for their performance.

Shang Lu, summarizing the situation, said, “I understand. Ye Lu, the director, only has the power to assign roles. The real screenwriters are the three of us acting as props.”

Lin Yanyan was delighted and exclaimed, “Yay!”

[How did the situation suddenly reverse? Hahaha]

[Ye Lu still seems happy because he doesn’t have to appear on stage, unaware that he will soon become the male lead.]

[False reward : Director. Real reward : Main lead.]

[Hahaha, let the stage play begin! I can’t wait!]

After half an hour passed.

‘Director Ye’ reprimanded the ‘actors’ sternly :

“Even though you are all just cameo roles, if you want to be remembered by the audience when you step onto the stage, you must cherish every performance! Treat each character seriously, even if it’s a non-speaking stone… Who are you? Why are you pulling me?”

Ye Lu hadn’t finished speaking when he looked at the suddenly appearing two men in black and panicked, trying to retreat.

Of course, his attempt to escape failed, and soon he was wailing as he was taken away.

Song Zeqian, who was wearing ‘pig headgear,’ remained expressionless. Jiang Jing was also uncomfortable with her own appearance, and Ou Yi stared at the bow on his head, nearly grinding his teeth to bits.

Meanwhile, Shanglu, Lin Yanyan, and Xu Ze huddled together. The three of them crouched in the corridor, quickly jotting down several different story outlines, ready to make adjustments as needed.

Lin Yanyan’s expression grew serious as she extended a hand into the air. “Let’s do this!”

Shang Lu placed her hand on top of Lin Yanyan’s.

Both of them turned to look at Xu Ze.

Xu Ze : “…”

He extended his hand.

Lin Yanyan cheered, “Let’s do this!”

On the other side, Ye Lu’s eyes filled with doubts of the world as he suddenly turned into the Little Pig. He remained propped on the table, unwilling to leave the dressing room.

Upon realizing he had actually become the main lead, he shouted with all his might:

“I’m an idol! I’m just an idol! I really can’t act!!!”

Making an idol play the role of the main lead in a stage play? Has the world gone mad?! Who will come and save him!

[Even through the screen, I could feel Ye Lu’s fear and aversion towards acting.]

[In a moment of realization, I recalled Ye Lu’s provocation against Song Zeqian in the first episode.]

[I get it now, the person in this production team who holds onto their original intentions the most is unexpectedly Ye Lu!]

However, even if Ye Lu was unwilling, he was forced to go backstage and wait for his turn.

Of course, there was another person backstage who was equally unhappy, and that was Ou Yi, who played the role of Little Pig’s Little Sister. He was wearing pink overalls (under his strong insistence, he didn’t wear a skirt; claiming that he isn’t as shameless as Ye Lu).

Upon seeing Ye Lu also transform into Little Pig, and not seeing any other actors, Ou Yi suddenly understood : “You’re also going to act?!”

Ye Lu smirked at Ou Yi without a real smile.

At this moment, Jiang Jing could no longer hold back and asked, “What are we going to perform on stage? They haven’t even given us a single line.”

Song Zeqian said, “Most likely it’s improvisation or earpiece guidance. It should be quite simple for you.”

Ye Lu & Ou Yi : “!”

The two locked eyes, and from each other’s gaze, they saw the same look of terror.

Ou Yi muttered, “I’m an idol, I can’t act!”

Ye Lu exclaimed, “Kindred spirit!!!”

Suddenly, their hands intertwined. In this moment, they unexpectedly shared a sense of camaraderie in adversity.

[Hahaha, someone finally understands Ye Lu!]

[Their relationship underwent an abrupt change in this instant.]

[I had heard about Ou Yi having a cameo in a drama before, but for some reason, it disappeared from the schedule later. It’s as if neither of them has ever acted.]

[True empathy doesn’t exist in the world, but Ye Lu and Ou Yi can feel it in this moment.]

Both Ye Lu and Ou Yi wanted to escape, but neither could.

Because at this moment, the background music began to play, which is a lively prelude, and the stage lights illuminated. Accompanied by a narrator’s voice :

“Once upon a time, in a beautiful forest, lived a joyful family of four pigs.”

In this moment, Ye Lu’s fear reached its zenith. He looked at Ou Yi and said, “…That’s Lin Yanyan’s voice!”

[Hahaha, Ye Lu is finally realizing that his fate is actually in someone else’s hands.]

And in the next second, the voice changed again.

“They are the handsome and charming Little Pig’s Dad and the gentle and beautiful Little Pig’s Mom.”

This slightly cold voice belonged to Xu Ze.

Song Zeqian and Jiang Jing could only go on stage together.

“There’s also the lively and cute Little Pig’s Elder Brother, as well as the rebellious Little Pig’s Little Sister going through her teenage years.”

Ye Lu and Ou Yi exchanged a glance, and both of them stepped onto the stage with a resigned look.

All the main characters were on stage, and the audience below were fans from various fandoms. They hadn’t watched the livestream and were unaware that these four individuals on stage were feeling quite helpless at the moment. Nevertheless, they enthusiastically started applauding.

Meanwhile, Shang Lu and Lin Yanyan, along with Xu Ze, were standing in a row, hidden inside a costume, portraying a tree, a rock, and a house.

Now it was Shang Lu’s turn. She cleared her throat and began to perform: “Today is Little Pig’s Little Sister’s birthday. Little Pig’s Dad, Little Pig’s Mom, and Little Pig’s Elder Brother celebrate with her. The four pigs gather around the table, holding hands, dancing together to celebrate Little Pig’s Little Sister’s birthday.”

The four people on stage : “???”

After all, Jiang Jing was the only real actor here. In this situation, she quickly accepted the scenario and was the first to extend her hand.

Everyone could only hold hands and started hopping around the table. It was obvious that they hadn’t rehearsed, as their movements were completely different. There were even a series of screams as they accidentally stepped on each other’s feet.

The audience below and the viewers in the live chat were all delighted.

[So it’s actually a children’s stage play?!]

[Four pigs, haha, that’s unexpected!]

Shang Lu’s voice rang out again: “Little Pig’s Mom lights the candles and offers blessings to her daughter.”

Jiang Jing naturally cooperated, while inserting a candle on the side, saying, “Today is our beloved daughter’s birthday. Mom and Dad hope our daughter can grow up happily and become the happiest Little Pig in the forest.”

[Hahaha, Teacher Jiang Jing is truly professional. She’s acting so seriously!]

[Ou Yi and Ye Lu look really desperate too, hahaha.]

Ou Yi’s lip twitched, but at this moment, he could only grit his teeth and continue acting. His voice also softened a bit, “Thank you… Mom and Dad.”

The candles were lit.

Lin Yanyan said, “Everyone sings the birthday song together, and Little Pig’s Little Sister make a birthday wish.”

“Happy birthday to you~ Happy birthday to you~”

Ou Yi put his hands together and closed his eyes.

Xu Ze then said, “Little Pig’s Little Sister speaks out her birthday wish loudly.”

The pressure was on Ou Yi.

Ou Yi : “???”

What birthday wish could he possibly have?

Ou Yi pondered for two seconds, feeling countless eyes on him. He blurted out, “I… I don’t want an elder brother, I want an elder sister!”

He hoped that Shang Lu would play his sister. He was willing to act alongside Shang Lu! He was also willing to learn acting from Shang Lu!

Program team: “???”

As a tree, Shang Lu slowly moved forward and, under everyone’s bewildered gaze, unzipped a zipper and extended a hand. She took the bow tie off Ou Yi’s head and then put it on Ye Lu.

Shang Lu withdrew her hand, returning to her original position, and her voice sounded seriously. She repeated the previous lines with a slight modification, “Today is Little Pig’s Little Sister’s birthday. Little Pig’s Dad, Little Pig’s Mom, and Little Pig’s Elder Sister are all here to accompany her.”

Ou Yi : “!”

This wasn’t the kind of sister he wanted!

Ye Lu : “?”

What does this have to do with him?

Shang Lu’s actions caused laughter from the audience below, while viewers in the livestream chat directly mocked it.

[Shang Lu, aren’t you being too perfunctory?]

[Putting Ou Yi’s bow on Ye Lu’s head, and Ye Lu transforms from Little Pig’s Elder Brother to Little Pig’s Elder Sister, hahaha.]

[Ye Lu : Can’t you be polite?]

The story continues.

Lin Yanyan’s voice rang out : “They may seem like a happy family of four, but Little Pig’s Elder Sister has been jealous of Little Pig’s Little Sister for a long time. She feels that their parents love her sister a bit more. So today, she’s challenging her sister.”

Xu Zedao added, “Little Pig’s Elder… Sister is full of fighting spirit, Little Pig’s Little Sister is extremely nervous, Little Pig’s Dad and Little Pig’s Mom are worriedly watching the two children.”
