The Supporting Male Character Just Wants to Be a Tool Man Chapter 37

CHAPTER 37. INSTANTLY SHEN QINGSHU DARED NOT MOVE!

When Qingshu saw Han Cheng's message saying he is busy. Without much thought, he exited the wechat dialog box and started playing games.

Sun Xuan walked into the studio and saw Shen Qingshu not far away.

“Is that him?” He asked his agent Zhang Kai.

Zhang Kai nodded, “Uhuh.”

Sun Xuan snorted discontentedly, “He was lucky to pick up such a big bargain for nothing.”

Zhang Kai also thinks so. Generally speaking, top-notch TV dramas never partner with top-notch celebrities. There are some second-line actors who refuse to participate in TV dramas because they don't want to play supporting roles. This leads to the situation that the protagonist is a popular star, but the supporting roles are people who are outside of the third line.

The top stream Bai Xuege's circumstance is even more special.

He is too young, only 17 years old. At this age, coupled with the setting of campus idol drama, it is doomed that the supporting male characters playing with him will not be too popular.

Although Sun Xuan has just made his debut for a year, he isn't as popular as his girlfriend. When his girlfriend joined this crew, she also recommended him.

At that time, the second male lead of the crew had been chosen already. He debuted through a not very popular draft, but he has some fans. At least he has more fans than Sun Xuan, so Sun Xuan could only be satisfied with the third male lead.

However, who would have thought that half a month before the start of filming, the idol had an accident and couldn't join the crew. When Sun Xuan heard the news from Zhang Kai, he hurriedly contacted the crew to say that he could play the second male lead, only to be told that a new actor had been found for the second male lead.

Sun Xuan asked curiously, “Who?”

Then he heard a name he had never heard before – Shen Qingshu.

When Sun Xuan went back, he asked his agent to check again and again. He was stunned when he couldn't find any previous works of Shen Qingshu, no competitions he had participated in, or who he was at all. Asking again, he found out this was a newcomer. A newcomer who doesn't have any works, who was newer than him.

How can he stand this?!

Sun Xuan thought it was fine if the other party's popularity and works were better than his, but the other party was not as good as him. As a result, the other could be the second male lead and he could only be the third mae lead. Sun Xuan thought it was disgusting.

Therefore, before they even met, he hated Shen Qingshu.

Sun Xuan looked at Shen Qingshu with disdain. In a twinkling of an eye, he saw his girlfriend Su Luo coming in with makeup.

He signalled at Su Luo secretly. Su Luo saw him indicating at Shen Qingshu and she returned a smile at him, as if to appease him.

Sun Xuan's mood lightened up.

Su Luo is his girlfriend and the female lead. The two had discussed it before. When the shooting started, Su Luo would go to the screenwriter and ask them to transfer some of the second male lead scenes to the third male lead. In this way, although Sun Xuan is technically the third male lead, he will actually have the same amount of scenes as the second male lead.

Sun Xuan thinks this is appropriate. After all, he still has some fans. While Shen Qingshu? A pure newcomer!

Su Luo also thinks it's right. She wanted to use this crew to help promote her boyfriend. It would be best if they could hype CP and generate some CP fans. Naturally, the more the scenes Sun Xuan has, the better.

As for whether Shen Qingshu will mind, he is a newcomer. What can he do if he does?

The entertainment industry is a place where people flatter the strong and step on the weak. If he wants to blame someone, blame himself for not being popular.

Su Luo is the female lead and a popular flower. In terms of popularity, she is only lower than Bai Xuege on the crew, all the others are not as popular as her. Therefore, when she came in, the photographer assistant came to her to discuss the makeup photos.

Sun Xuan saw that his girlfriend went to take makeup photos. He was a little bored, as he was about to play with his mobile phone, he caught a glimpse of Bai Xuege arriving. He hurried to greet him and planned to create a good relationship with him.

When Shen Qingshu finished a game, he looked up and saw that Bai Xuege was sitting in a chair playing with his mobile phone. He is surrounded by a group of people, including Sun Xuan, the third male lead, Qiao Ying, the second female lead and others he doesn't recognise.

It's really lively. Shen Qingshu area is very quiet. He just doesn't know if Bai Xuege feels annoyed by the noise.

Bai Xuege certainly felt annoyed, otherwise he wouldn't take out his mobile phone to play games, but as soon as he opened the game, Sun Xuan chimed in enthusiastically, “I'm also playing this game. I'm very skilled. Let's play together.”

With that, he took out his mobile phone, ready to form a team with Bai Xuege.

Bai Xuege looked at his operation skills and wanted to turn around to shoot the pig teammate directly.

He lowered his head and rushed forward. From the side he heard “F*ck” Sun Xuan had died.

Bai Xuege looked up. “This is what you call skilled?”

Sun Xuan said awkwardly, “I was just careless for a moment. I forgot to use my flash. Let's go another round.”

“I'm afraid you'll continue to be careless.” Bai Xuege refused.

He was about to take back his gaze when he inadvertently swept a look to Shen Qingshu, who was sitting quietly not far away.

He sat quite and upright. With only an assistant beside him, looking cold and unexpectedly quiet.

There is a feeling of isolation and airy indifference.

Bai Xuege thinks it's better there. Isn't it good for everyone to be beautiful alone? Why don't you get close to him? Don't annoy me here!

He thought so and heard Sun Xuan chirping in his ear. Making him all the more annoyed.

Just as he was about to chase people away, he saw the assistant photographer come over and call him to take makeup photos.

Bai Xuege put away his mobile phone, stood up and walked towards the photographer.

He was handsome and expressive, so the shooting finished soon. The assistant photographer went to Shen Qingshu and said it was his turn.

Shen Qingshu hurried to the green curtain and began to pose as the photographer instructed.

Bai Xuege had just packed up his things and was ready to leave. As soon as he looked up, he saw Shen Qingshu professionally posing for the makeup photo.

He stayed for two more minutes and watched Shen Qingshu change his posture one after another. There was nothing to criticise, from his expression to his gaze. “You said  this is his first work?”

“Yes, a pure newcomer.” Qin Yingyang said, “Though his expressiveness is pretty good.”

“The image is also good.” Bai Xuege said.

Qin Yingyang looked at him strangely, “You have praised him twice now.”

Bai Xuege turned and left. As soon as he turned around, he saw Sun Xuan running over while saying, “Xiao Bai, are you going back?”

F*ck who are you calling Xiao Bai?!

Bai Xuege ridiculed in his heart, don't you know the dog in Crayon Shin-chan1 is called Xiao Bai?! 

You should call me teacher Xiao Bai!

Looking at Sun Xuan's plainly confident face, he couldn't help turning his head and looked back at Shen Qingshu's indifferent face.

The scenery there is better, it can refresh the eyes.

Bai Xuege refreshed his eyes for two seconds. Then turned his head back to give a cold “um” to Sun Xuan and walked away.

Sun Xuan watched him leave. Before turning disdainful eyes to Shen Qingshu who was taking makeup photos. Oh, it should be him standing in front of the curtain at this time, but now it has become Shen Qingshu who is nothing.

But it doesn't matter. Soon, it will be his again.

Shen Qingshu took photos for about half an hour. The photographer put down the camera and said sincerely, “Okay, Xiao Shen, your performance is good.”

“Really? It must be due to your talented shooting.” Shen Qingshu laughed.

The photographer was flattered by him. The only impression he had before was good-looking. Now he thinks he is good-looking and a smooth talker. His attitude warmed up. “It's because you're photogenic. All right, go back and have a rest. Keep in good shape and shoot well tomorrow.”

“Okay.”

Shen Qingshu walked out of the shooting area and walked towards Zhou Jianming and them.

When the photographer finished shooting Shen Qingshu, he moved on to Sun Xuan. Sun Xuan has long since been prepared. As soon as he stood in front of the camera, he put on the standard posture of a successful man, stuck out his chest with hand on his hips, raised his head, and looked up at 45 degrees.

Photographer:… This is a campus drama, not a workplace drama. Even if it is a workplace drama, this posture is too rustic!

Also, the photographer looked at his expression of “confident men are the most handsome” and felt that he was back to reality. He should not feel that all men in the world are handsome after being dazzled by two handsome men, let alone that everyone can pose by themselves without his teaching!

“Well, let's take a basic one first. Put your hand down…” said the photographer.

Shen Qingshu, Zhou Jianming and his assistant left the studio and were ready to return to the hotel.

The crew will officially start tomorrow, so today is the last day he can rest. He plans to use his limited time to write unlimited updates – of course, if he can find inspiration.

“Filming will start tomorrow. You remember to go back to check tomorrow's scenes and memorize the lines.” Zhou Jianming reminded.

Shen Qingshu nodded. “I've finished memorising them.”

“Really?” Zhou Jianming doubts that a little prince is so dedicated?

“Of course.” Shen Qingshu looked at him, “Not only tomorrow's, but I know all the lines by heart.”

Zhou Jianming was shocked, “You memorized everything?”

“Yes.”

“After only half a month?”

“Yes.”

Zhou Jianming couldn't believe it. “Are you… Serious about being an actor?”

“Otherwise? Am I here to experience life?”

How can it not be experiencing life!

Zhou Jianming looked at him and felt narrow-minded.

“Very good.” He patted Shen Qingshu on the shoulder, “Good that you have this determination. As an agent, I'm very happy.”

“Then you will have many happy days in the future.”

As he was talking, he suddenly heard Xiao Li's “ah”. The next second, Xiao Li grabbed him and stumbled, “Shen ge, be careful.”

Shen Qingshu turned his head suspiciously and saw Xiao Li look frightened. He trembled and pointed not far away and said, “Snake.”

“Ah?” Shen Qingshu looked in the direction he pointed. Then he found that a small snake was looking at them with its small head at a corner more than ten meters away from them.

Shen Qingshu: ! ! !

What's going on? How could there be a snake in the hotel corridor?! This is not a deep mountain!

He was surprised as the little snake had climbed over the corner, swinging its tail and slowly slithered towards them.

Xiao Li was so frightened that he pulled him back.

Zhou Jianming “tutted” and said, “Look how scared you are. It's not a python. You're afraid of such a small snake.”

“Aren't you afraid?” Xiao Li retorted.

Zhou Jianming is very arrogant, “I'm not afraid.”

Unwilling to be outdone, Xiao Li looked at Shen Qingshu. “Aren't you afraid, Shen ge?”

Shen Qingshu looked at the little snake slowly getting closer and closer to them. The snake was nearly as thick as a finger and white all over, but its eyes were red.

It approached slowly. Xiao Li was so frightened that he pulled Shen Qingshu back for several steps. 

Unexpectedly, the snake rushed forward the next second. By the time Shen Qingshu reacted, it had coiled itself on his right leg, lifting it's snake's head and looked at him with red eyes.

Shen Qingshu: ! ! !

Instantly Shen Qingshu dared not move!
