"Any kind of good impression will do." Xiao Luobing felt that she should at least find a character he had a good impression of to act with him and see how his performance was when his emotions were stable.
"If I had to say how I felt? It would be the female character who just introduced herself and said I was 'gentle'." Young Master Fei answered without hesitation.
As mentioned before, Jiang Anran was the female lead he liked the most when reading the book.
However!
Young Master Fei naturally equated the character with the person, feeling nothing was wrong with it. But this strange point was immediately caught by Xiao Luobing.
A female character? Not an actress?
She had found something strange about this from the beginning. "Zhao Jinfei" seemed to be confusing characters with actors.
Now she was somewhat certain. "Zhao Jinfei" wasn't just mistaken; he genuinely believed it.
Under these circumstances, Xiao Luobing felt there were only two reasons: either he thought they were the same, equating characters and actors; or they were actually the same...
Did another actor get a role that suited them and are they playing themselves?
Or some other situation?
"The other one? The one who said you were 'gentle'?" To be safe, she confirmed again.
"Yes, the other character."
"……"
It was obvious that 'expressions and words can deceive, but the gentleness in your eyes cannot' was not an evaluation from within the play, but an evaluation of the actor.
"You're clearly stuck in a misunderstanding!" Although this mistake wouldn't cause much trouble even if it wasn't corrected, as a teacher, Xiao Luobing felt obligated to correct him.
"Misunderstanding?"
"Yes, you need to understand: actors are not equal to characters. The two must be distinguished! You need to think more about this and integrate it."
Actor ≠ Character?
Young Master Fei fell into thought. He understood the literal meaning, of course, but he knew she wouldn't say something so simple. He just hadn't grasped it yet.
Seeing him thinking seriously, Xiao Luobing smiled with satisfaction. Such a diligent student was rare these days. However, there wasn't much time left...
"Think more about this sentence when you go back. For now, let's continue. Replicate the scene with this female character according to the previous process."
Young Master Fei, who had been deep in thought, was stunned.
A scene? I shouldn't have any scenes with her!
I shouldn't even know her!
Her being by my side now is an impossible situation!
However, there seems to be one scene I can act out.
The chance encounter at the flower shop at the very beginning.
Perhaps Teacher Liang can see something.
"Okay."
Young Master Fei, except for omitting and simplifying identity information, copied the performance from that time without change and explained the scene between Jiang Anran and Uncle Fu to Xiao Luobing, so that she could perfectly replicate the scene at that time (as he perceived it).
Thirty minutes later. (This part of the plot can be found in Chapter 5.)
"There are no emotional issues with this scene, but your performance is slightly exaggerated, making you look like the villain from a stereotypical urban Dragon King novel."
Xiao Luobing felt that besides making the common mistakes of a rookie actor and being a bit too forceful, his performance was considered decent.
"……" You actually guessed right, this is an urban Dragon King novel!
What kind of experience is it to hear a character from a book complain about an urban Dragon King novel?
Young Master Fei knew now. It felt very strange, a sense of being looked down upon.
Just like the previous scene, Young Master Fei felt that if he hadn't underestimated the situation, he could have easily succeeded with just a little more effort.
However.
Even if my performance was a bit exaggerated, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with what happened later, does it?
Although Teacher Liang pointed out his acting flaws, it still didn't resolve the doubts in Young Master Fei's heart.
"Ring ring ring~" The phone beside him rang, signaling the end of class.
"That's about it. Today's class ends here. Zhao Jinfei, your performance in the first scene lacked immersion, and in the second scene, you made another mistake by being too forceful. These are common mistakes for rookie actors, but they should be fine with proper training. Also, remember, a character is a character, and an actor is an actor. They are different."
"Okay, thank you, Teacher Liang." He was still very polite. Wearing a mask, he didn't need to act as a villain, so saying thank you had no impact.
"Alright, I'll add your WeChat. We can contact each other there if there are any issues."
"A secondary account? Let me see."
Young Master Fei's main WeChat account was well-known and definitely couldn't be used.
Although the received memories were incomplete, Young Master Fei only remembered having two accounts.
If the main account couldn't be used, he'd use the secondary one.
He opened WeChat and searched. Sure enough, he found one. The secondary account was called [Lone Brave].
"Teacher Liang, can you add the [Lone Brave] on radar?"
"Okay."
Young Master Fei was confused. He didn't remember this account, but why were there no chat logs on it?
How was he supposed to figure out what this account was for?
He then opened his contacts. Good heavens, hundreds, even thousands of friends, with all sorts of remarks.
He scrolled through them.
Case closed.
Good heavens, this was a dating service.
The most numerous were a string of remarks like university students: [University Student Zhang Xinyao][University Student Xu Feifei][University Student Xue Ying]...
Zhang Xinyao... Xu Feifei... Xue Ying...
Student girls, huh? Playing it like this?
Fei Yangyao, oh Fei Yangyao, I didn't expect your body to be so sturdy, to be able to handle so many.
Hmm, Wang Kai.
He continued scrolling. [University Student Wang Kai]...
Wang Kai!?
That's a guy's name, isn't it?
Playing it that wild?
Young Master Fei subconsciously clenched his steel door. Thankfully, thankfully, it felt like there were no issues.
At least it wasn't 0. Half relieved, he continued to look.
[High School Student Li Na Once a year December 16][Junior High Student Zeng Jing Once every three months August 19][Elementary School Student Fu Qianyu Once a month on the 15th]
Holy crap, what is this?!
High school students were one thing, but junior high students?! Elementary school students!!
Young children!
They even had dates and frequencies noted after the middle and elementary school students?
For a moment, the perfect "simp" image of the "villain Fei Yangyao" collapsed in his mind.
He never imagined that while chasing his goddess, he would privately engage in such beastly behavior!
If Young Master Fei wasn't currently occupying this identity, he would have called the police ten out of ten times and had this scumbag arrested.
Absolutely do not contact them!
Young Master Fei made up his mind, he would absolutely not touch those people again.
Perhaps he could make an exception for the "elder generation"?
No, no, no, not a single one. Fei Yangyao, oh Fei Yangyao, how could you fall so low! You are Gu Xiyue's perfect simp!
The two angels clashed. It was clear that in the face of settings, lust was all for naught!
Besides the students who made up the majority, there were also some people inside whose specific roles couldn't be determined.
Just as he was looking at [Dean Changning Wang], pondering what kind of dean this was.
"Zhao... Zhao Jinfei, I've added you. See you next class, I have something to attend to, so I'm leaving."
Watching Teacher Liang's retreating figure, for some reason, Young Master Fei felt she was a bit unusual, her emotions not quite right.
Must be his imagination?
Shaking his head, he went to the front desk to pay and then took a taxi back to the hospital.
However, because the previous dating service had shocked him, he overlooked one fact: he hadn't received any friend request notifications!
