The Supporting Male Character Just Wants to Be a Tool Man
CFJTM Chapter 110. âIâm here to pick up my wife and go home.â
TN: Iâm back~
urgh I hurt my ankle on the second day of mountain walking, so basically didnât get to see other sights ( ´;︵;` ) Haha so my cousin is staying for another 2 weeks and Iâm going to try to stick to schedule but no promises (ã·_ _)ã·
Shen Qingshu didnât need to think, âthatâs not necessary.â
âIt has nothing to do with me. The dogs should fight amongst themselves, I am too lazy to get involved.â
Han Cheng is also not in a hurry to persuade him. It is obvious that this is not the final moment for Shen Qingshu to break up with the Shen family, so there is no need to worry.
He had already thought it over before calling Shen Qingshu. If Shen Qingshu wanted to help his parents, he would help them.
If Shen Qingshu doesnât want to do this, he will sit on his mountain and watch the dog fight. When both sides are hurt, he will ask Shen Qingshu if he wants to take the opportunity to take back everything of the Shen family.
This is not the time to close the net and it doesnât matter whether Shen Qingshu helps or not. He only needs to know that such a thing is happening, Han Cheng is happy for the rest.
âWell, Iâll leave it alone. Letâs see what happens to your parents and Shen Qingyu in the end.â
âThereâs no need to ask what will happen, they will choose Shen Qingyu, and they will accept the good and bad.â
But at the thought of Shen Qingyu becoming successful in the future, kicking off Shenâs father and mother, and living freely, Shen Qingshu is inexplicably not very happy.
âDo you think my parents can make a comeback? When they fall, Shen Qingyu will be completely liberated. No one can teach him a lesson.â
âDifficult.â Han Cheng said rationally, âyour parents donât know anything now, and they are so fascinated by Zhao Heng that they just think that Shen Qingyu has climbed the high branch and wants to squeeze his family into the high society. How can they notice Shen Qingyuâs hidden moves.â
Shen Qingshu thought the same thing. âWell, I hope the three dogs bite more intensely. Otherwise, if Shen Qingyu won easily I would feel bored.â
Han Cheng chuckled, âdonât worry, they wonât bother you. Do they deserve to affect your mood? I am the only one who can affect your mood.â
Shen Qingshu suddenly laughed. âYou really can put gold on your face.â
âIâm not telling the truth?â
âYeah right, youâre telling the truth.â
They talked for a while. Shen Qingshu hung up the phone reluctantly and got ready to go to bed.
Han Cheng was not in a hurry to sleep, but sent another wechat message to his assistant: [Pay attention to Shen Qingyu and PengHuiâs news, and remember to tell me when there is an obvious change in the situation.]
[OK.] The assistant replied.
Han Cheng put down his mobile phone and stood up.
In the past, before he and Shen Qingshu became lovers, he was not qualified to take charge of Shen Qingshuâs household affairs, so even if he knew that he had been unfairly treated at home, he did not intervene.
Now that he is Shen Qingshuâs boyfriend, those who have hurt him should pay their due price.
How can Shen Qingyu occupy all the good things in the world?
He robbed Shen Qingshu of his parentsâ affection. After more than 20 years of a smooth life, why can he finally kick off his bad adoptive parents, become the companyâs boss, and live the rest of his life with dignity?
In the first half of his life, his own mother deliberately helped him steal the precious clothes and food from others.
Now, like his own mother, he deliberately wants to steal the wealth of the rest of his life.
How can there be such a good thing in this world?
Han Cheng laughed scornfully. The grasshopper after autumn will not be able to hop for long. Therefore, you should jump higher before falling.
In this way, Shenâs father and mother can be even worse off, canât they?
He felt happy when they were upset.
Shen Qingshu doesnât know that Han Cheng, who is gentle, kind and pure and like a little white flower in his mind, has already made all the plans and is just waiting to help him reap the benefits.
At this time, he was still busy filming.
As a well-known golden supporting character actor, Hou Chaorui has not many awards, but his acting skills are superb. Shen Qingshu finally had scenes with him in the next few days, and it was inevitable that he had more exchanges with him.
Hou Chaoruiâs temperament is not bad, but he hasnât become popular for so many years, and he canât help but question his talent. When talking to Shen Qingshu, his tone is sometimes mixed with a bit of envy for him, saying that he was lucky and had good timing.
Shen Qingshu doesnât contradict him either. A little popularity depends on support and explosive popularity depends on life. Life itself is made up of a certain amount of luck, so he really thinks he is lucky.
Hou Chaorui listened to him frankly say âIâm really luckyâ, calmly and felt that he was quite unique, making him appreciate Shen Qingshu more in his heart.
For him, it is far more comforting to attribute the reason why he is not popular to luck than to attribute it to other aspects.
After all, only luck can not be controlled or changed.
However, he met so many people and only Shen Qingshu could calmly say that he was really lucky.
With his personality and mentality, he will definitely become popular sooner or later.
He patted Shen Qingshu on the shoulder. âIf you have such a state of mind, you will still be more popular in the future.â
Shen Qingshu chuckled, âthen Iâll borrow Rui geâs good words.â
âEn.â Hou Chaorui also laughed.
Shen Qingshu looks at him and suddenly thinks of his role in the play.
He felt that Hou Chaoruiâs luck was really not so good. It didnât mean that it wasnât so good, but it seemed that it was inevitable.
When he read the script, he not only read the content of his own part, but also read the whole story together.
So he also knew the plot of Hou Chaorui and Meng Zhi.
As an actor, Shen Qingshu thinks the script is wonderful.
However, as an author, Shen Qingshu can clearly feel that the plot and character charm of the murderer played by Hou Chaorui are actually lacking.
According to the logic of the murdererâs previous killing revenge plan, his last victim should be himself.
He should have committed suicide before the protagonist found him, complete the most perfect revenge, judge others and judge himself.
Or he can fake the illusion of murder after committing suicide, and finally play with the protagonist to bring his revenge to a perfect end.
In short, he should not stop his pace after killing Luo Yi, and be discovered, seen through and arrested without pause.
But Shen Qingshu can understand the reason.
Li Haiyang, played by Meng Zhi, is the male protagonist and the centre. therefore should be the most brilliant character.
So he canât lose to the murderer. In the end, he canât realise that everything is just a game of the murderer, who has already completed the last piece with his own life, so he won completely. His death is his greatest victory.
ââHe only accepts his own domination, and no one can judge his crimes.
This is not possible.
No matter for the meaning of the law or for the consideration of the primary and secondary roles, the screenwriter will not allow this situation.
However, it did weaken the brilliance of the plot and failed to dig out the complexity and cleverness of the case and the ultimate personality of the murderer.
Shen Qingshu looks at Hou Chaorui and suddenly wants to write a crime story.
He hasnât written for a long time. Since the end of the campus essay after the Spring Festival, he hasnât been in a hurry to write a work. Now, he has the impulse to write again, and he has a new subject to write about.
But he didnât hurry to write. Instead, he thought carefully for several days and slowly built the core content of the story in his mind.
With the weather getting hotter day by day, at the beginning of June, Shen Qingshu finally filmed his characterâs ending. Luo Yi, relying on his amazing memory, found out the common ground of the victims. He realized that the murderer might be that person, but that person had also approached him quietly.
On a dark rainy night, Luo Yi tried to fight against the ghost-like opponent, but he still died under the blows of the other party.
With his last wit, he left his master a clue about the murderer, and then closed his eyes forever.
It is raining continuously with a pitter patter. No one knows that there is a man named Luo Yi who has disappeared from this city.
The man looked at him calmly. It seemed that there was a little sadness in his expressionlessness. Before he turned around and began to clean the crime scene carefully.
The director motioned for the cameraman to slowly pull the camera away, and gave Shen Qingshu a panoramic shot. He was lying on the white floor, blood flowed from under him and dyed his white clothes red. His eyes were closed and his hair was drooping. It was melancholic and beautiful.
When something beautiful in the world is broken, it is heartbreaking, let alone a boy who is as pure as snow. The director wiped his glasses, and then shouted in a hoarse voice, âcut!â
Shen Qingshu sat up and moved his neck. When he lifted his hand, he found a large amount of blood on his hand.
Shen Qingshu put down his hand with some disgust. Hou Chaorui came up to him and pulled him up. He asked him, âare you alright? Did I hurt you just now?â
âNo.â Shen Qingshu said, âRui ge, you were too gentle. I donât feel a thing.â
Hou Chaorui smiled. âThatâs good. Go and change your clothes. This amount of blood looks terrifying.â
Shen Qingshu nodded and got into the nanny car with Zhou Jianming, ready to take a bath and change clothes.
âDid Mr Cen tell you?â Zhou Jianming sat beside him and asked, âheâs going to add two more assistants to you. Do you want them to come now or later?â
âWhy did he suddenly add more assistants to me?â Shen Qingshu asked curiously.
âYouâre popular now. Sometimes I have to leave to discuss business for you. Xiao Li may be too busy alone, so itâs more convenient to add two more assistants.â
âAll right.â Shen Qingshu didnât have any comment. âBut itâs enough to add one first. If necessary, add another, if itâs not, then leave it as is.â
âOkay, when do you think you want them to come?â
âWhen the next project starts, this one will be finished soon. There is no need for another person as we wonât be busy.â
When he finished, he remembered something again. He turned on his mobile phone and looked at the date. âItâs almost time for the college entrance examination.â
âYes.â Zhou Jianming said, âtomorrow will be the 6th. You can send a microblog then, to encourage the college entrance examination.â
Shen Qingshu smiled. âI can do it now.â
Zhou Jianming: ? ? ?
Shen Qingshu opened wechat and sent a wechat message to Bai Xuege: [how was your revising?]
Bai Xuege: â¦
Bai Xuege: [QAQ]
Shen Qingshu: [come on, you are the most at ease!]
Bai Xuege: [ ! ! !]
Shen Qingshu: [just kidding, you are the best!]
Bai Xuege: [wish me peace QAQ]
Shen Qingshu: [I wish you go straight to QingBei]Â 1
Bai Xuege:⦠I expected too much of him.
Shen Qingshu went back to the hotel to take a bath, changed clothes, and then went to the set again.
The martial arts teacher of the production crew is teaching the actor of the next scene how to break free from the bondage. He twisted a rope into a knot.
Shen Qingshu leaned over to have a look, then he heard the teacher say, âyou tie the knot like this, and then you solve it like this.â
He called his assistant over and gave a demonstration to the two actors.
âDonât keep struggling. The more you struggle, the tighter the rope will be. Donât worry and take your time.â
Shen Qingshu was curious. âWhat if I tie the knot like this?â
He took the rope and tied a knot.
The teacher said with a smile, âitâs the same. Donât worry, you can solve it like this.â
He demonstrated it once, and Shen Qingshu tried it himself. In fact, it was not easy to undo, but it could be done with a little time.
He asked the teacher for a rope, then asked the teacher to help tie the knot and went to practice by himself.
Seeing that he came back with his hands tied, Zhou Jianming asked in confusion, âwhat are you doing?â
âExperience material.â Shen Qingshu replied.
âWhat do you mean?â
Shen Qingshu glanced at him and said nothing.
Heâs not planning to drop his vest in front of Zhou Jianming.
He carefully undid the rope according to the method the teacher just said. Then he put his hand behind his back and asked Zhou Jianming to tie him up.
Zhou Jianming: â¦
What the hell is he doing?!
Shen Qingshu just wants to try to untie the rope binding his hands, to see if he can and how long it will take.
After all, his next book is about crime, which will inevitably be connected.
But this time, he could not undo it for a long time. It was obviously more difficult to do so with his hands behind his back and still needed the help of external forces.
He didnât embarrass himself. He turned around and asked Zhou Jianming to untie the rope for him. As he untied it, a video call from Han Cheng came.
Shen Qingshu hasnât untied the rope yet, so he can only ask Zhou Jianming to pick up for him.
As soon as Han Cheng connected, he saw Shen Qingshu twisting around and asked him curiously, âwhat are you doing?â
âUntying rope.â He turned around and showed Han Cheng his hands behind his back.
Han Cheng: â¦
âAre you secretly doing bondage play while Iâm away?â
Shen Qingshu: â¦
Zhou Jianming: ! ! !
What did he hear?!
Is this something he can freely listen to?!
Shen Qingshu watched Zhou Jianming hand holding his mobile phone tremble, and couldnât help reminding Han Cheng, âZhou ge is holding the phone.â
âOh.â Han Cheng was completely indifferent. âTell him to leave for a minute, or he will know too much.â
Zhou Jianming:⦠I donât want to know that much, okay ? !
Itâs you who let loose as soon as you connected. What are you accusing me of? Iâm just an innocent mobile phone holder, okay ? !
âIâll hang up first and call you back later.â Shen Qingshu created an escape route.
Zhou Jianming immediately took the chance to hang up on the video call when he heard the words.
He went behind Shen Qingshu and untied the rope for him. Then he left without looking back, as if he didnât want to hear more.
There are too many explosive points. He is afraid that Han Cheng will kill him!
Shen Qingshu watched him leave as if he were running away, and smiled softly. He thought he was a very interesting agent.
He called Han Cheng back. Han Cheng looked at him and asked, âwhy are you untying it? Donât you want to try bondage?â
âCan you stop?â Shen Qingshu was speechless. âStill on about bondage play. Are you a small train? Dirty dirty dirty.â 2
âI am not a small train. You are a small train. I am your driver.â
Han Cheng looked at him. âWhy donât I buy some red rope next time, and then you can perform for me on the spot on how to untie the rope.â
Shen Qingshu: ! ! !
âStop dreaming! Iâll show you a live five flower bind, youâre the one getting bound and Iâm the one doing the binding.â
Han Cheng laughed.
Shen Qingshu snorted, âwhat do you want from me?â
âNothing. I just wanted to see you.â Han Cheng said, âand stop by to ask for credit.â
âAsk for credit?â
âDid Zou Jianming tell you about the assistant? That was my proposal. Otherwise, Cen Yueze is so busy he wouldnât have the time to think of it.â
âReally?â Shen Qingsgu chuckled. âThen raise Iâll praise you, as encouragement next time I see you, Iâll allow you to kiss me.â
âCan I exchange it?â Han Cheng asked him.
âFor what?â
âLive rope untying.â Han Cheng laughed. âDonât worry. Iâll make it easy for you to solve it.â
âDonât even think about it.â Shen Qingshu refused, âbut I can bind you on the spot instead. Donât worry, I wonât hurt you.â
âDonât even think about it.â Han Cheng refused, âforget it, we wonât talk about it. Have you prepared Bai Xuegeâs birthday gift? If you donât have time, Iâll buy it for you.â
âOkay.â Shen Qingshu really didnât have enough time, âbut do you know what he wants?â
âYes, I asked him. You keep busy, Iâll ask my secretary to buy his gift later, so you donât have to worry about it.â
âEn.â
âThen Iâm hanging up.â Han Cheng said.
âBye. byeâ
Han Cheng hung up the phone, but somehow a picture of Shen Qingshu lying in bed curled up, with his hands bound by the red rope appeared in his heart.
His skin was white and shining, but the red rope around his hands were as bright as fire. He raised his soft body, stretched his hand in front of him, and asked him softly, âwonât you untie it for me?â
Han Cheng: fuck! How shameless!
Itâs still daytime and he was thinking about these inappropriate images.
He is really shameless!
While self-criticising, he quietly opened the luxury jewellery website, his body being honest. Itâs summer, and itâs time to give his little boyfriend a new gift.
Han Cheng wanted to give him a red rope bracelet. Red rope, red thread, tied around his hand in marriage.
Andâ¦
Shen Qingshuâs wrist is so white, he should look good in red.
It will without doubt suit him very well.
This time, he learned from his experience in the support group last time and decided to choose a good style to customise directly. For the event when the time comes that some fans want to get the same style.
What was he thinking?
This must be unique, something that only the two of them have.
Han Cheng thought of this and laughed happily again.
Soon, after Bai Xuegeâs extremely painful college entrance examination, Shen Qingshuâs filming finally came to an end.
After filming Meng Zhiâs memories of him in the last scene, all his scenes were finished.
The crew ordered a cake for him, director Zheng, the screenwriter, Meng Zhi, Lu Xue and Hou Chaorui all took a photo with him.
Shen Qingshu said âyeâ to the camera and smiled happily.
Bai Jian watched from a distance and did not go over.
He had a rough time these days. He had quarrels with the staff several times and didnât understand why. During the quarrel, he angrily said, âI asked for this before. Why did you agree before, yet youâre refusing now?â
When the staff heard the speech, they looked helpless, âCan you figure it out? There are so many people in the crew. Youâre just a small supporting role. Before, it was because Shen Qingshu was close to you, everyone looked up to him and gave face. But now it seems that you two have nothing to do with each other, so you naturally return to the bottom. Like your order when it comes to filming, do I still need to tell you such a simple truth?â
Bai Jian lost his words in an instant.
âHe made you do it?â He murmured.
The staff was speechless. âCome on, what kind of coffee position does he have? Why donât you look at yourself? Are you qualified? This is normal treatment. Donât you see that all the other supporting roles like you are the same? All right, stop making trouble. Just wait a while. Before that, you were treated with special treatment. Donât always take special treatment as normal. Otherwise, you will suffer when you join the next crew.â
With that, the staff turned and left.
Bai Jian just remembered that when he first joined the crew, he really didnât suffer.
His agent only reminded him to pay attention and left. He stayed here cramped and Shen Qingshu was the first to show kindness to him.
Shen Qingshu helped with his lines and even ate box lunch with him on the set.
So his boxed lunch was different from other supporting roles and if he said that he wanted to change his costume, someone would soon help to solve it.
At this moment, Bai Jian finally realised that he had really enjoyed the benefits brought by Shen Qingshu. However, Shen Qingshu didnât like to bring it up. Other people also didnât say it, so he really thought it was what he deserved.
Shen qingshu has helped him, re really has.
Shen Qingshu looked up and saw Bai Jian not far away. Their eyes met and Bai Jian looked down awkwardly.
Shen Qingshu ignored him, just pretended he had never seen him.
He hasnât cared about Bai Jian for a long time, just as he wonât care about father Shen, mother Shen or Shen Qingyu.
So whether Bai Jianâs life is good or bad, it has nothing to do with him.
He cut the cake with his head down and handed it to everyone around him one by one.
Bai Jian looked at him and felt lost.
Who knows whether it was because he lost the past treatment, or because of the words he shouldnât have said at that time.
At last, he glanced at Shen Qingshu and turned to walk towards the way he had come.
ââEven if he realised his mistake, he didnât want to apologise.
He doesnât want to apologise, let alone take the initiative.
He comforted himself that Shen Qingshu did not need his apology.
So, whether he said it or not, it was meaningless.
When Shen Qingshu raised his head again, he could no longer see Bai Jian.
If they never see each other again, Shen Qingshu thought it was for the best. He never wants to see anyone he doesnât like.
He happily eats the cake. Lu Xue deliberately teases him and wipes a layer of cream on his face, catching Shen Qingshu caught off guard. Seeing his shocked expression, others followed suit to attack him with.
Shen Qingshu quickly hid behind Zhou Jianming to avoid the cream disaster.
After eating the cake, Shen Qingshu took photos with some of the crew members and was ready to leave.
He posted photos of the last scene on his microblog, and fans left positive messages one by one: [congratulations on the last scene, gege, take care of yourself!]
[Ah ah ah ah ah, looking forward to it!]
[How handsome! My brother is so beautiful. I love him so much!]
[Sobbing, I really want this to be released soon.]
Itâs doomed to be impossible. The protagonist hasnât finished filming yet, Shen Qingshu though.
He was watching when Han Chengâs phone came in, âis your last scene today?â
âYes.â Shen Qingshu replied with a smile, âbut you donât have to come here. Iâll just go back by myself. You can go to work.â
âIâm afraid not.â Han Cheng sighed, âhoney, itâs too late. Iâm already in the parking lot of your hotel.â
Shen Qingshu: ! ! !
Shen Qingshuâs heart jumped and he couldnât wait to fly to the hotel parking lot immediately!
He asked the driver to speed up and arrived at the underground parking lot of the hotel.
He has been familiar with Han Chengâs car for a long time. After a while, he found it and went to knock on the window.
Han Cheng pressed down the window, looked at him and smiled, âHello, Iâve come to pick up my wife. Have you seen my wife?â
Shen Qingshu smiled. âNo, I only saw my wife. How can I notice your wife?â
Han Cheng: â¦
Canât you identify yourself?
Give back my wife, you can only be a wife to others!
He opened the door and got out. âLetâs go. Iâll come with you to pack.â
âIn what capacity are you saying that?â Shen Qingshu smiled. âOnly my wife is qualified to help me pack my bags.â
Han Cheng pinched his face. âMayI serve the young master, young master?â
Shen Qingshu was immediately happy. âOkay, Iâll give you the honour.â
Han Cheng pinched and shook the meat on his face. âYou are really capable.â
Shen Qingshu hummed, âof course.â
He said that, smiled again, pulled down Han Chengâs hand that was holding his cheek and took his hand while looking at him sweetly.
Zhou Jianming coughed at this time. âPlease, can you go back before acting lovey-dovey?â
Shen Qingshu: ! ! !
Why are you still here?!
Han Cheng was also surprised, âWhy are you here again? Donât you think your appearance frequency is too high?â
Zhou Jianming: â¦
Do you think I want to be here all the time?
That I donât want to disappear ? !
I canât disappear ! !
I canât hide!
Damn it!
Itâs not what he wants to see!
Who wants to see this dog abuse scene!
He doesnât want to see it!
Zhou Jianming turned angrily and left. He didnât want to talk to the butchers any more.
TN: okay so I tried looking up the proper way to say âuntying bondageâ because that just didnât seem like the right phrase? But as you can see I couldnât find it or if there is such a thing? Leave a comment if you know and Iâll edit it in!
1Â QingBei = I think this refers to the top 2 universities in China, Peking and Tsinghua university.
2Â When the train departs, the whistle will sound, âwooâââ-â is homophonic with âdirtyâ.
If anyone posts something that is not suitable for children on the Internet, they can swipe âThe train has entered the station, dirtyââââ in the comments. Can also be similar to the car talk.
