Chapter 1207: Thinking of You

“Okay!” Little Meng carried her backpack. “Why don’t I return to the agency first, then go to retrieve your clothes at the school? When I arrive, it’ll be around dinnertime, so I can bring you dinner!”

Yun Liuli nodded.

Little Meng asked joyfully, “Sister Liuli, Mr. Jacob Bellucci, what would you like for dinner?”

Sheng Kang was being treated like an invisible man by the side. So... none of this had anything to do with him?

Was this miss’s treatment based on appearance?

Because he wasn’t as good looking as Jacob Bellucci and Yun Liuli, he was being ignored, was that the case?

Sheng Kang smiled and said, “I won’t trouble Miss Meng to prepare dinner. I’ve already made arrangements. Someone from home will prepare it and bring it over. Food bought outside can’t be compared to food prepared at home!”

Little Meng thought about it and then nodded. “Alright then! I’ll leave first then, Miss Liuli!”

“Mm!” Yun Liuli nodded distractedly. Her vision had already turned to her script.

Yun Liuli had an excellent memory, so she remembered everything after merely reading the script once, and that included other people’s lines...

Yun Liuli didn’t have many scenes in the entire script.

Nonetheless, because she wanted to link up the entire story, Yun Liuli still perused the script. Only then would she be able to act out a fuller character. This was what Yun Liuli’s acting teacher taught her.

After reading through the script once, Yun Liuli nearly memorized all the lines in it, particularly her own lines!

But how to put it? Just as Little Meng said earlier... Yun Liuli wasn’t able to show her strengths in this script since she didn’t have many lines.

Furthermore, it was a movie. If Yun Liuli’s scenes were edited away during the post-production editing process, then her lines would truly be pathetically few.

Although she didn’t have that many lines, the scenes were alright. That meant... Yun Liuli had to put in hard work on her acting, for scenes without lines were the hardest to act.

Yun Liuli stuck post-its on scenes where Bai Wanqin appeared so that she could easily flip to them.

She drew a circle on the first scene.

The first scene was shot at the entrance of Duke Zhenguo’s manor. All the womenfolk of the family were standing at the door, waiting for Duke Zhenguo to come back with the corpses in the coffins. Bai Wanqin was standing next to her eldest sister Bai Wanyan. However, at this time, Bai Wanqin was still a ten-year-old child, so this wasn’t Yun Liuli’s scene.

Yun Liuli copied down every scene, then carefully thought about how to act as the spoiled young lady of the Bai family who was used to being spoiled at home!

Yun Liuli thought that Bai Wanqin probably had the lousiest martial arts skills among her siblings and was naive and didn’t know much about scheming. However, she was proud of being a member of the Bai family!

After all, after the males of the Bai family died in battle, her eldest sister Bai Wanyan led the womenfolk of the Bai family into battle, lifting the backbone of the state of Shu that had just been broken during the battle.

Yun Liuli closed her eyes. Taking advantage of the fact that she had memorized the entire script, she tried to envision what it was like at that time...

Bai Wanqin’s most important scene was that of her being captured and held captive by the enemy troops. She had tried and failed to kill herself on several attempts. On the day of the grand battle between the two armies, Bai Wanqin was put at the forefront of the enemy’s war chariot...

The enemy troops had, in order to humiliate the Bai family, torn off Bai Wanqin’s clothes piece by piece.

Bai Wanqin asked her eldest sister Bai Wanyan to kill her, but the marksman in the Bai troops couldn’t bear to release the arrow even though he had fully pulled the bowstring.

That was when Bai Wanqin shouted, “Eldest Sister, I’m a daughter of the Bai family. I won’t shame the state of Shu and the Bai family, whether dead or alive. Do it, Eldest Sister!”

Eyes brimming with tears, Bai Wanyan grabbed the bow from the marksman and notched two arrows before shooting them out with a loud howl...

The sharp arrows shot through the sky. One pierced right through Bai Wanqin’s heart, whereas the other shot through the soldier that was tearing off Bai Wanqin’s clothes.

After the arrow pierced through her heart, Bai Wanqin revealed a smile at her eldest sister with blood spewing from her mouth. Yun Liuli wondered... what the smile should look like.

Heartened? Upset?

Perhaps she would be relieved that she no longer had to suffer humiliation and could calmly face her death.

Or should she feel regretful that she would no longer be able to accompany her eldest sister to battle?

Or even... an indication to her eldest sister that she could only rely on her to avenge the Bai family now?

After all, Bai Wanqin had, on countless occasions, sworn to avenge the 17 sons of the Bai family, as well as her grandfather.

Yun Liuli frowned. She couldn’t quite figure this out.

The script couldn’t clarify her doubts, for there was only this one simple line in the script: Bai Wanqin smiled with blood spewing from her mouth.

What should she be thinking about right before her death?

Yun Liuli looked up towards Gu Qingcheng. She had wanted to ask Gu Qingcheng but realized that the eyesore Sheng Kang was also sitting in the room...

Hence, Yun Liuli said to Sheng Kang, “Sheng Kang, can I trouble you to buy me some coffee from downstairs? I’m reading the script now and need some coffee to perk me up.”

So, after Little Meng left, he became her errand boy?

Sheng Kang’s vision swept over the coffee on the table as he said, “Miss Liuli, you haven’t finished your coffee, have you?”

“I don’t like coffee that has turned cold! I like to drink it hot!”

Sheng Kang had no choice but to get up and buy Yun Liuli some coffee.

Seeing Sheng Kang head out, Yun Liuli removed her legs from the coffee table and ran to the door, pulling it open and glancing outside. After confirming that Sheng Kang had entered the elevator, she bounced to Gu Qingcheng’s bedside and ferociously kissed him on his lips, a vibrant smile in her eyes. She asked, “Every time you were on the brink of death or thought you were about to die... what were you thinking?”

Gu Qingcheng narrowed his eyes, still relishing the warm and soft sensation of her lips from a moment ago. He said softly, “Thinking of you...”

“Stop fooling around. I’m asking seriously. The character I’m acting as is about to die... I’m wondering what a person would be thinking about right before death!” Yun Liuli’s voice was warm and soft, sounding like she was wheedling.

Looking at the young lady’s vibrant manner, Gu Qingcheng raised a hand and tucked her long hair behind her ear as he said, “The first time... I thought about you sitting at your desk. You looked as if you had been sitting there for a day and a night. I was a little worried about you, worried about what was going to happen to you after I died! Also, I felt sorry towards your father, that I wasn’t able to raise you into an ordinary young girl who was as vibrant and happy as other girls your age.”

Yun Liuli nodded. Since Gu Qingcheng mentioned the first time... that must have meant there was a second time.

“The second time... was after you confessed to me. I thought I wouldn’t survive and was feeling regret about not responding to your love, regret that I didn’t admit I had fallen for you! I felt sorry towards you... for leaving you all alone in this world.”

So... every time Gu Qingcheng was on the brink of death, he felt sorry?

Yun Liuli was suddenly enlightened!

So, when Bai Wanqin was about to die... she probably felt sorry towards her eldest sister!

Sorry for asking her eldest sister to do something so cruel as killing her own sister!

Sorry that she would no longer be able to accompany her eldest sister to battle!
