Chapter 20.2 – Is your kidney okay?

The elderly and straight-laced mentor didn’t notice it in You Qiuqiu expression but, fortunately, the female tutor quickly resolved the issue.

She smiled first, informing him that there was an unexpected accident on stage. The sword was broken. Of course, the male instructor’s shocked expression showed something like “You’re bluffing!”

The sword broke accidentally, and actually flew towards the actor?!

The mentors were no longer talking, the male mentor now doubting his life, as she continued her commentary on You Qiuqiu and Fang Shubai’s performance.

She first talked about Fang Shubai performance, “I can see that you are still very young…Looking at your resume and you being a second-year university student this level of acting is enough. I am thrilled to see another shining star in both film and television in the near future. ”

Fang Shubai had done very well indeed. This time he was emotionally relaxed on the stage. Compared to the previous rehearsal, it can be said that he had acted exceptionally well.

His whole face became flush with excitement. He originally came to take part in this show to make a slash not being abused by the judge.

The female mentor then commented on You Qiuqiu.

“Fast emotion changes, but always keeping it natural.”

From the charming enchantress to the fierce vengeful girl, it is hard to say that this scene is not too difficult to perform, but it is not easy to say that it is too simple either. Especially some people who can go through the scene, but they can seem stiff and their emotional changes very abrupt… but You Qiuqiu is a rare type of actress… a natural.

“You’re quite flexible on-the-spot and you can deal with sudden emergencies.”

She was talking about the broken sword.

It was an accident, but You Qiuqiu made the male mentor think that was an ad lib.

“You’re pretty good,” she finished.

After saying this, the female tutor suddenly remembered the young woman’s name mentioned by a stranger who had filmed with her during the recording slot of the show.

The tone of the other party was sour in a way that all women could detect—

“An Internet celebrity. No work. Came to participate in the show with the first place in the Film Academy’s entrance examinations. I don’t know what this director is thinking.”

The female tutor felt that no matter what the director thought, You Qiuqiu was not as watered down as she seemed.

…

Both of them received many compliments. And, of course the judges also picked out a lot of flaws, but overall, there were still more compliments.

You Qiuqiu and Fang Shubai are both young, one of them has just graduated, while the other is still a second-year university student, and both are pure newcomer actors. Overall their overall stage of growth has been satisfying. It’s better than many of the masterpieces of small flower and male teen idol who debuted in seven or eight years.

As quickly as they were praised by their mentor, they were just as quickly eliminated.

They were not depressed at all because the contract signed had only one clause.

Although 《Hello Actor》 stood under a banner of fairness, this clause was just a formality. A thing to tell children that there is no absolute fairness, plus You Qiuqiu and Fang Shubai are indeed newcomers. They are not good enough to crush the old actors.

You Qiuqiu was dignified on the stage. When she got off the stage and her face collapsed in an instant.

From sunny to cloudy.

Although she still held the image of a glamorous enchantress before, there was no sign of that woman nor her temperament now. She held the broken sword cautiously and asked the staff nearby.

“Umm… does… the broken  props, how much money will this cost to replace?”

She was referring to the broken sword in her hand.

You Qiuqiu’s hands trembled a little. She never thought this kind of situation would happen!

Where did this strength even come from? This sword is too easy to break.

Just now, You Qiuqiu was about to brew emotions, those same tears from when she was performing with Fang Shubai, but after breaking the sword, You Qiuqiu found she didn’t need to brew anything.

As long as she felt responsible for breaking the props, she might need to pay some money. You Qiuqiu’s feel that her tears flooded.

Even if she hadn’t controlled herself, her tears couldn’t help but flow.

This prop sword was quite heavy and realistic. It should be worth a lot of money. In the past, the compensation for damaged facilities was ten times of the original price.

You Qiuqiu couldn’t help but feel miserable in her heart: Wuwuwu, that’s a lot of money!

It’s difficult for social animals to make money. Every penny carries hard sweat, and she has to deal with the black hearted boss.

The staff member was stunned by You Qiuqiu’s mourning face and stared blankly at her. After a short pause he replied: “This… you don’t have to pay.”

It wasn’t that no guests had damaged the props before, but no one had asked this question; You Qiuqiu was the first. In fact, the staff themselves were at a loss, but they still spoke out according to their own guesses.

You Qiuqiu felt like her gut was shot by an arrow.

She relaxed a little.

“Senior sister, you don’t have to lose money.”

Fang Shubai’s voice came from behind.

While holding the broken sword, You Qiuqiu was reminded that Fang Shubai had been stabbed by the sword. She saw Fang Shubai was nursing his kidney with his hand.

Knowing now that there is no need to pay any compensation, she finally thought of her junior.

You Qiuqiu starched out her finger to reach out to the place where Fang Shubai was shielding. She sent a question in a gentle voice.

“Is your kidney okay?”

Even after Fang Shubai’s kidney had been battered by the broken sword, it still faintly ached. With You Qiuqiu putting pressure on it now, ignoring the pain was impossible.
