Chapter 160: Chapter 160: A True Actress
Cao Yuezhi had been secretly observing Lu Shanhe’s face. When she saw Lu Shanhe nod his head, Cao Yuezhi felt smug. It seemed that it was almost certain that her niece was going to get the role.
“There’s still Chuchu who hasn’t auditioned yet.” Wang Fugui waved at Gu Chu. “Is Chuchu ready? Come to Uncle when you’re ready.”
Gu Chu jumped off the bench.
When she met Mengmeng who had just returned, Mengmeng proudly raised her smooth chin. Her baby face was still stained with tears as she looked at Gu Chu proudly.
Gu Chu did not take the little girl’s provocation seriously at all.
In her past life and this life, Gu Chu had spent most of her time acting. She could lie to anyone and pretend to be anyone she wanted.
In her past life, that little prosecutor had chased after her for several years. How many times had he been fooled by her acting skills? She couldn’t even count.
Gu Chu went on stage and first greeted the judges politely.
Then, the expression on Gu Chu’s little face instantly changed. She had placed herself in the era of war. The tyrannical Japanese invaders had invaded this ancient country in a frenzied manner. Wherever they went, there was blood and corpses everywhere.
The five-year-old little girl was still at the age where she did not know what was going on. She didn’t know what war was or what the enemy was. She was well protected by her parents. Her parents were her entire world.
However, when the cannonball fell, her world collapsed.
She saw her mother, who was usually warm and kind, and her father, who was serious and gentle, both fell “asleep” on the crimson ground, surrounded by ordinary people who were running and screaming. The little girl frowned and stumbled toward her mother and father. She did not care that she was accidentally hit by the escaping people.
She went against the crowd and walked to her parents’ side. She squatted on the ground and held her mother’s hand.
“Mommy… I’m hungry…”
“Daddy…”
But her parents could no longer open their eyes. They lay in a pool of blood and fell asleep forever.
The little girl sat beside her parents’ bodies in confusion. She held her parents’ hands as usual and looked at the fleeing crowd in confusion and unease. Tears gradually appeared in her eyes, but they did not fall.
Her tears reflected this sad and helpless era.
…
“Boo-hoo, she’s so pitiful…” Lili secretly wiped her tears.
Nannan sniffled. “Boo-hoo, I really want to give her all the snacks. She doesn’t have parents. She must be very hungry.”
Only Mengmeng pouted and did not say a word.
…
Lu Shanhe calmly took a sip of tea and stood up. He said calmly, “Let’s go with Chuchu.”
After saying that, Lu Shanhe walked out of the room calmly.
Wang Fugui was very puzzled. Why was his master so calm?! Chuchu’s natural acting skills almost made Wang Fugui cry on the spot. She was simply a natural-born actor, a genius among geniuses!
Master had always had a pair of discerning eyes. Why was he so calm today?
Wang Fugui could not understand his master’s thoughts. He could only turn around and say to the crowd, “Everyone has witnessed Chuchu’s acting skills just now. We have decided on Chuchu. Do you have any objections?”
Lili and Nannan’s parents shook their heads. They had no objections at all.
Cao Yuezhi did not say a word. Her hands that were hidden in her sleeves were secretly clenched tightly. She was an actress. Of course, she knew how scary Gu Chu’s acting skills were. This was simply not a plot that a five-year-old girl could act out!
During the process of watching the performance just now, for a moment, Cao Yuezhi even had the urge to cry.
The highest level of acting skills would create empathy.
This five-year-old girl could actually make the audience sympathize in such a simple environment… Is she really only five years old?
