The Supporting Male Character Just Wants to Be a Tool Man
TN: Fifth day of releases, thanks again for everyoneâs support~
Shen Qingshu finished work late, and Han Cheng compassionately didnât toss him any more. They took a bath together, and the two went straight to sleep.
He wanted Shen Qingshu to sleep more, but he was too busy as the male lead, producer and half screenwriter. The next morning, he woke up before 7 oâclock again.
Han Cheng looked at Shen Qingshu who couldnât open his eyes, and was cuddling sleepily in his arms, hugged him gently, and helped him change clothes and wash his face.
âGo to sleep. You can rest more.â Shen Qingshu persuaded him.
âNo.â He came to visit the set to accompany him, so when Shen Qingshu got up, he naturally couldnât continue to sleep.
Shen Qinggshu saw that he is determined, so he didnât persuade him and they left together for the set.
After discussing with Zhou Mian about investors and advertisements, he finally went to the dressing room to put on make up.
Just after his makeup was finished, he met Cui Hao.
Cui Hao doesnât have many scenes these days. Today, there is only one in the morning. Shen Qingshu looked at his appearance and said with a smile, âLooking good.â
âNot as good as you.â Cui Hao responded. Remembering something, he said to him, âI have something and need to go out for a while. Iâve already asked Director Mei, and wanted to confirm with you. Iâll be back tomorrow morning.â
âNo problem.â Shen Qingshu didnât ask too much.
Cui Hao was relieved.
In fact, he was a little nervous. Shen Qingshu knew that he had an agreement with the program team during the variety show. So he could probably guess who was backing him and what his relationship was with the other party.
When he just spoke, he was worried that Shen Qingshu would ask him what he was going to do. He had the excuse prepared in his mind. Unexpectedly, the other party didnât ask him anything but straightforwardly agreed.
Cui Haoâs heart lighthearted unconsciously. âThank you.â
Shen Qingshu smiled, âItâs nothing.â
He walked forward with Cui Hao, got into the elevator and went downstairs.
Shen Qingshu has many scenes today, notably a scene with Yao Lu, which is very important. This is the reversal point of the whole case.
In the movie, after Chen Aiâs death, the city returns to calm, and everyone feels that everything is over. The case can also be closed.
However, is that true?
One night, Su Qing knocked on Chen Aiâs house again.
The door was opened by his cousin JiaJia, who had lived with him. Su Qing went in and saw the bare house. It was obvious that the owner was moving.
âAre you leaving?â Su Qing asked her.
JiaJia nodded, gentle as always, âI want to change places and start over.â
Su Qing looked at her elegant and slightly sad face and said softly, âYes, you really should change places. After all, no one will know that you are stained with so much blood after leaving here.â
JiaJia looked at him with confusion in her eyes.
âYou are the murderer, Chen Ai is just your knife, right?â He said coldly.
JiaJia shook her head, innocent and confused, âWhat are you talking about? I donât understand.â
Su Qing looked at her and calmly analysed everything. Everything was just a deliberate inducement from the woman in front of him.

âYou want to avenge your father, so you want Wang Lei to die, but you donât want to get your hands dirty. So you deliberately said those words in front of Chen Ai, that you wanted him to die, so as to induce him to kill Wang Lei for you.â
âYou never liked him, because of him, your father and daughterâs life, which was not rich, was even more difficult. Because of him, your father went out early and came back late, obviously he was already in poor health, but still had to work two jobs; because of him, you felt your life was destroyed.â
âYou have been imperceptibly guiding and inducing him. You never regarded him as a real relative, so he became the best knife to kill Wang Lei.â
âWithout him, your father would not work at night, and there would be no accident. Without him, you and your father would still be a happy pair of father and daughter. You hate him, and you think he is also a murderer. You hope they will disappear, so as to really get revenge for your father.â
âHeâs so pitiful. Even until his death, he thought you were a good jiejie. I hope youâre happy.â
JiaJia listened quietly and slowly smiled. She said, âOfficer Su, the story you told is really scary, you scared me.â
âCan you feel scared, as well?â Su Qing looked at her, scorning and mocking, âI thought people like you would fear nothingâ
âOf course I can.â JiaJia said, âIâm afraid of many things.â
She smiled gently and ignored Su Qing. Instead, she turned and continued to pack up.
Su Qing watched her seal the box in her hand with tape, what he doesnât know is that there are several albums in it, but none of them are related to Chen Ai.
Why must Chen Ai be here?
JiaJia did not understand, he was not a child of their family, so why doesnât he live with his own family?
Because of him, her father came to the city from the countryside, with no culture, no money, and suffered from discrimination.
Because of him, she became the sister of the murdererâs son. Those people laughed at him, her and her father.
They said that her father was stupid, that her father must not love her since he was taking care of other peopleâs children. And that her father had other goals, that he coveted the money of Chen Aiâs family.
But where does Chen Aiâs family have money?
His father has already squandered all their money.
She thought that when his mother came out, he would leave her home, and she could go back to living with her father.
She waited patiently, day after day, but then his mother did not want him, so she left. Leaving her son to someone else.
So he still lives in her home, eating the food made by her father, using her fatherâs money, and her father will even praise him, âLook, JiaJia, at how smart Ai is. He will certainly be promising in the future.â
But what does that have to do with her?
What does it have to do with her whether he is promising?
Obviously she was the only child in the family before. Obviously her father loved her only before. Obviously he also said that she would be promising when she grew up.
Then why should he care about a person who is not part of their family.
Why should he treat him better?
She heard her father holding her and saying, âJiaJia, your didi has no parents, so we should treat him better, love him, and make him feel like this is his home.â
But she never had a didi. She was the only child in their family. This is not his home.
âI donât want a didi.â She said.
âHow can that be? Your didi is so young. If we donât care about him, no one will care about him and he will be bullied.â
âBut he is not our familyâs child.â
âHe will be later.â Her father gently touched her head, âYou will both be fatherâs children in the future.â
That night, JiaJia kept her head down. She thought it would be better if there was no Chen Ai in the world.
Since Dad doesnât want to send him away, she can send him away by herself.
Day by day, year by year, she gently and slowly reminded Chen Ai of the things he had encountered.
Just like a chronic poison, it penetrated into Chen Aiâs body bit by bit until that moonlit night, when the moon hung high like a drawn bow, she finally pulled the bow string and shot the arrow.
She said, âWhy canât anyone kill him? Iâm going to kill him, okay? I want him to die. I want to avenge my father. Iâm going to kill him. Iâm going to kill him now.â
Chen Ai hurriedly stopped her. He looked at the helplessness in his jiejieâs eyes, and the words he had heard came up quietly and unconsciously â âYou are the son of a murderer, and you will become a murderer in the future.â
How can he let his jiejie break the law?
He is the son of a murderer. Of course, this is the most appropriate way for him to act.
Under the clear moonlight, he walked on the road paved by those people, many people, including even the person he trusted most.
But only he knew, and only Su Qing knew, how much he was afraid of this road and how much he hated it.
This is a road of no return for Chen Ai.
âCut.â Mei Ruo shouted.
She beckoned Shen Qingshu and Yao Lu to come over. Shen Qingshu hurried over and Yao Lu followed him.
Mei Ruo pointed to the image on the screen and said to Yao Lu, âLook here, your expression here is not very natural, it seems that you are a little nervous, you should be relaxed. JiaJia is very confident, she doesnât think she will be caught from beginning to end, and she doesnât intend to admit it. So she has always been in a very confident and calm state, relaxed and confident, understand?â
Yao Lu nodded, âOkay.â
Mei Ruo gave Shen Qingshu two pointers as well, and then started to reshoot the scene.
Han Cheng watched Shen Qingshu perform the scene from before again. He simply felt that his acting skills were getting better and better during the shooting.
When he first went to visit Shen Qingshuâs idol play, Shen Qingshuâs role was not complex enough, and it was easy to play.
The second time he played with Meng Zhi, it was obvious that he had made a qualitative leap. Although he did not like Meng Zhi, he had to admit he was a good senior. At least in acting, he did not need to teach him anything, but he carefully taught him a lot every time.
The third time is this play.
This is the best role played by Shen Qingshu. Han Cheng thinks that every scene, at least every scene he sees, Shen Qingshu is not like himself, but the real Su Qing in his writing.
Obviously, they are two people with the same appearance, but different personalities. The difference is so clear that it seems that they are two people who happened to have the same appearance.
Han Cheng hopes that he can win a prize with this film. His progress is so rapid that he should be seen and recognized.
If only he were an award judge.

Shen Qingshu didnât know that his boyfriend had already thought of him winning the prize at this time. He was immersed in the joy of this scene and was going to pack up his things and go back to rest.
When he got off work, he wanted to accompany his boyfriend. Shen Qingshu quickly finished his work and ran to Han Cheng happily.
Han Cheng didnât dare to be too close to him on the set. He only hugged him once they got on the bus.
Shen Qingshu kissed him on the neck and said happily, âI got off work early today, so I can accompany you tonight.â
âGood.â Han Cheng scratched his nose.
Shen Qingshu rubbed against his face, then sat down and asked him to drive.
He and Han Cheng went to the hotel they had booked before. Shen Qingshu was getting ready to get out of the car when he saw a familiar person. He quickly retracted his hand about to open the door and looked curiously.
