After Transmigrating as the Vicious Female Supporting Character, I Ran Away While Pregnant - Chapter 27.1

“Again?”

So Li Sheng really had been paying attention to her before, and to the soup in her hand.

Mo Yueshuang felt as if her guess had been verified. Every cell in her body was dancing joyfully for her.

However, the person herself was still here, so Mo Yueshuang’s wild thoughts obediently stayed put and did not step on a banana peel and slide around everywhere.

“Mm, because Little Xie has been practicing making soup recently. She asked me to help give her some suggestions.” As Mo Yueshuang spoke, she paid attention to Li Sheng’s expression. However, Li Sheng’s face did not change much. She only thought gloomily in her heart, After drinking a little soup, she’s already calling her Little Xie. Heh.

“Does it taste good?” Li Sheng asked again.

Mo Yueshuang did think it tasted very good. Otherwise, she would not have finished it every time. But she had only just drunk Li Sheng’s soup that morning and praised Li Sheng’s soup as the most delicious soup she had ever had. At this moment, she definitely could not praise Xie Shixian’s soup too much.

So Mo Yueshuang only chose some suitable words to say. “The broth is rich, fresh but not greasy, and the seasoning is well matched. It tastes very good.”

“Oh.”

Li Sheng glanced at it, then slowly shifted her gaze away, looking toward Guan Anru, who was still filming.

At this moment, seeing Guan Anru feeling frustrated in all kinds of ways while still having to endure and continue filming was the only thing that could make Li Sheng’s mood slightly better.

Mo Yueshuang had been joking with Li Sheng, but now she noticed that after Li Sheng heard her words, her mood really did drop. Mo Yueshuang felt somewhat happy, but more than that, she felt flustered.

“However, compared to your soup, it’s still missing a certain flavor.”

Mo Yueshuang added this sentence. Li Sheng raised her chin slightly, her expression bright and lively, the pride on her face difficult to hide. “What flavor is it missing?”

The flavor of someone I like.

Mo Yueshuang smiled. “That’s a secret. If one day in the future I have the chance to say it to you, I’ll definitely tell you.”

“Inexplicable.” Li Sheng expressed disdain with her mouth, but in her heart, she still felt a little sweet. She thought perhaps she had been idle for too long. Now she even wanted to compete over this kind of victory or defeat. Since when had she started caring about these messy things?

“Li Sheng, after this film finishes shooting, what plans do you have?”

“Ranran is doing quite well here. If Ranran doesn’t want to leave, I might stay here long-term.” Since she had already confirmed that Ranran was not Ji Ruodong’s child, Li Sheng wanted to stay a little longer and try. If she confirmed they would not be dragged into the main plot, then she would stay with Ranran.

Ranran liked Hua Country very much, and the bedtime stories she listened to most were also ancient Hua Country legends.

“What about work? Do you have any plans?”

“I’ll find a company to work at, or find a school and become a teacher. If that really doesn’t work, I’ll go to a hospital.”

Hearing her words, Mo Yueshuang was somewhat dumbfounded. “You can do all of those?”

“I’ve taken the certificates for all of them. Getting hired shouldn’t be a problem. If possible, I’d rather find a job as a security guard at a residential area or shopping mall. The work would be relaxed and free.”

Li Sheng’s dreams were all aimed toward becoming a leisurely rice worm. Mo Yueshuang thought that if Li Sheng did not also have a daughter, she might really find one job and work it until old age.

Li Sheng had nothing in particular she wanted to do. In her previous life, what she had wanted most was to get out of the research institute, to spend a few peaceful and quiet days in a place without zombies, monsters, or even people, sleep properly, and eat a full meal.

Such a simple hope, yet in her previous life, she had not spent even one day like that.

After coming to this world, Li Sheng only wanted to eat until full and sleep well every day, without worrying that she would die in the next second. This useless dream of Li Sheng’s was something she had wanted in both her past and present lives. She felt she had more pursuit than anyone. As a human being, chasing too much was not good either. If she could sleep without worries and eat a meal with her belly open, then her short life would already be complete.

Mo Yueshuang did not think there was anything wrong with Li Sheng’s thoughts. There were so many busy people in modern society, but there really were not many people with dreams and ideals. Everyone’s ultimate ideal was not to accomplish some great career. It was only very simple: not being too busy, living with the most primitive happiness, relaxing one’s busy body and mind, and lazily lying down for a proper rest after meals.

“When I retire, I’ll team up with you. How about that?”

“All right. I’ll wait for you.” Li Sheng smiled. Words said when one was young about growing old could not be taken seriously, just like children saying what they would do when they grew up. But at this moment, hearing Mo Yueshuang say she would accompany her still made Li Sheng quite happy.

The two of them chatted here for a while. Close to noon, it was Mo Yueshuang’s scene.

Li Sheng followed over to watch Mo Yueshuang’s temporary makeup touch-up. This scene was a breakout scene. As a result, internal conflict arose, and Di Xue single-handedly used her fists to settle those people who spoke big words and blindly chattered nonsense.

However, she was also seriously injured during the fight. After the breakout ended, Di Xue was challenged again.

This time, she did not control her strength either. She went straight up and used her fists to teach the other party how to be a person. In the end, one punch killed the deputy captain, and she herself spat out a mouthful of stagnant blood on the spot.

Later, a small blood packet would be hidden in Mo Yueshuang’s mouth. The director hoped this part could pass in one take, so it was a great test of the actor’s acting skills.

Mo Yueshuang went on set. As the director called start, everyone entered character immediately.

Li Sheng watched from the side. This scene was from when, in her previous life, after her experiment failed and she was sent to the dungeon to self-heal and “fend for herself,” Di Xue had secretly come to see her and told her about it.

Di Xue had spoken with glowing excitement. At that time, Li Sheng had yearned for it so much. Hearing that Di Xue had punched that annoying deputy captain, she had suddenly laughed and pulled at her wounds. In the end, the wound that had finally stopped bleeding split open again. Blood flowed nonstop, and she almost really died.

Now, watching Mo Yueshuang interpret this part, Li Sheng felt that Mo Yueshuang still could not portray Di Xue’s ruthlessness. When Di Xue attacked, she truly went for the other person’s life. An actor was still an actor. No matter how similar Mo Yueshuang was to Di Xue, without truly undergoing the baptism of blood, she still could not act out that do-or-die decisiveness.

The afternoon scene was Luo Ziyue’s failed performance. Di Xue secretly ran to see her, but the base mistakenly thought Di Xue was trying to steal confidential information and defect, so it sent heavy troops to encircle and suppress her.

Because Di Xue’s ability was special, and no one could defeat her in a pure ability fight, they could only set up an ability barrier, seal the abilities of all ability users, then send strong fighters inside to fight Di Xue with fists and feet.

In the end, after fighting beyond her limit, Di Xue actually broke through the ability barrier as well. She had originally only wanted to secretly see her friend, but in the end, she simply took her friend away.

They had always fought alone, without a team that truly belonged to them. Di Xue took her friend to another base, only to be deceived. Her friend became a lab rat once again, and Di Xue’s ability was developed without limit, finally reaching a terrifying point where even she herself could not control it.

The new base treated them as experimental subjects. Luo Ziyue lay on the operating table, while Di Xue was sent to the battlefield. They planned to refine her into a biochemical weapon.

Unfortunately for them, although Di Xue was eventually controlled by them, she relied on her powerful willpower and successfully saved herself. Through her healing ability, Luo Ziyue calmed the virus inside Di Xue and the drugs the base had injected into her.

In the end, they escaped.

Both of these scenes belonged to Mo Yueshuang. Earlier, Li Sheng had promised Director Wen she would act as the action instructor, so this afternoon, she could work together with Mo Yueshuang and teach her the movements.

For the next two days, except for the director, the entire crew would have one day off. The director had to follow the location scouting team to the mountain area to set things up in advance. The crew’s actors and staff could take this chance to rest properly. Only the director still had to keep working nonstop.

During the noon break, actors who had no scenes in the afternoon could return to the hotel to rest, or they could stay on set and learn. In the past, Mo Yueshuang would also stay on set and watch, but this afternoon, Li Sheng was going to guide her in fighting movements, so Mo Yueshuang first returned to the hotel to sleep for a while. After waking, she comfortably soaked in a bath before coming over.

Because Li Sheng had work in the afternoon, today was one of the rare times she did not skip work or find an excuse to leave early.

“You know the human body’s acupoints, right? Know a few fatal acupoints. Then gather strength in the palm, the fist, the elbow, the knee… You have to operate your own body as a weapon. Every inch has an essential use in battle.”

Li Sheng first tried a few moves. Facing several wooden prop stakes, she punched once, and the wooden stake directly snapped and fell to the ground.

The people in the crew who were paying attention to this area were all shocked speechless. Li Sheng acted as if she had not seen these people’s existence and continued explaining to Mo Yueshuang. “You don’t need to break things like I do, but you must make it believable that one punch can kill. In the apocalypse, many times, you don’t get a second chance. Often, those few seconds are bought for you by your teammates’ lives. You have one and only one chance.”

Mo Yueshuang felt that Li Sheng at this moment was dazzling, and also sorrowful. At this moment, Li Sheng seemed to be carrying a heavy past. She thought Li Sheng must have once experienced pain ordinary people could hardly imagine.

“I wrote these acupoints for you on this doll pillow. The corresponding vulnerable fatal acupoints that are easy to attack are also circled in red. I’ll slow down the movements first. Watch carefully.”

Hearing that Li Sheng was about to demonstrate, quite a few people directly took out their phones and began filming. Li Sheng saw it but did not stop them. She completely did not care about these things. At that moment, she only thought about doing her own task properly.

Li Sheng’s attacks were fast, precise, and ruthless. Even though she had slowed down now, if one did not watch carefully, it was still hard to tell which fist she threw first.

Mo Yueshuang not only watched seriously, she also learned very carefully. Even the subtle adjustments in the movements were captured by her.

The first time Mo Yueshuang copied Li Sheng’s movements in front of Li Sheng, she was extremely nervous.

She had clearly learned from martial arts instructors before, but at that time, she could devote herself completely to work. She would absolutely not, like today, unknowingly have her soul hooked away by Li Sheng.

Li Sheng demonstrated once in slow motion. Afterward, she used her normal speed.

“Damn, she’s almost moving so fast there are afterimages.”

“In all martial arts under heaven, only speed is unbreakable. I don’t understand kung fu, but Screenwriter Li is amazing. Her posture is handsome and domineering. I’m in love.”

“It looks like tai chi.”

“No, the last few punches landed exactly where they should. Tai chi isn’t this sinister and ruthless.”

“I don’t understand, I don’t understand. Just one sentence: holy shit, awesome!”

They had all recorded it. Afterward, Li Sheng knew that Mo Yueshuang’s practice had also been recorded.

After it was posted online, it instantly became popular. Over these years, Mo Yueshuang had about half true fans and half antis. Now, because of this video, the comment section was noisy and quarrelsome, and it even sent her onto Weibo.

On set, Li Sheng stood beside Mo Yueshuang holding a thermos. Mo Yueshuang was still practicing several rather difficult movements with great effort. Some postures were not standard, so Li Sheng walked over and tapped Mo Yueshuang’s waist and elbow. “Straighten your waist. Bend your elbow. This is where power is concentrated, and this is the weapon you will use to kill the enemy next. Be soft when you should be soft, and hard when you should be hard. Don’t be too stiff. Try relaxing all your muscles first, then instantly tensing them to store strength.”

What soft, what hard? When Li Sheng’s hand landed on her waist, Mo Yueshuang’s entire body tensed up. Li Sheng, as if she did not notice at all, slid her hand from Mo Yueshuang’s waist all the way to her elbow.

Mo Yueshuang’s tensed body almost failed to hold and collapsed weakly to the ground. Everywhere Li Sheng’s fingers passed, Mo Yueshuang felt as if it had caught fire.

If it had been anyone else, Mo Yueshuang would have suspected the other person was taking advantage of the instruction to grope her.

But this person was Li Sheng. Mo Yueshuang actually hoped Li Sheng could have some thoughts toward her. Even if Li Sheng did not currently have thoughts about her as a person, having thoughts about her body would also be fine.

Mo Yueshuang turned back to look at Li Sheng. The other party had a cold face and even looked at her with a very disdainful gaze.

Seeing Mo Yueshuang turn back, Li Sheng added, “This bad? Do you not exercise normally?”

Mo Yueshuang wanted to shout at her, If you weren’t touching me all over, I’d be very steady!

But Mo Yueshuang could not shout it out. She held back, her face flushed red, and looked at Li Sheng, waiting for Instructor Li to quickly end this movement so her weak body could rest properly.

“All right, stop for now. Rest a while.”

At Li Sheng’s command, Mo Yueshuang immediately stopped the movement and walked a couple of steps to sit on a small folding stool.

Mo Yueshuang picked up a small twig from the ground and scratched at the soil. Li Sheng, at this moment, took her thermos to refill it with water.

Li Sheng was still the same as when they first met. When there was nothing important, she liked hiding alone. She did not like speaking, nor did she like making extra expressions. With a cold face, she maintained her icy beauty persona.

Mo Yueshuang felt somewhat uncomfortable inside. Why had she fallen in love with Li Sheng? Would this secret crush have a result? When would there be a result? One day in the future, could she fantasize that Li Sheng also liked her?

Mo Yueshuang’s thoughts flew chaotically. Suddenly, a pair of hands landed on her shoulders. Before she could turn back, the owner of those hands spoke.

“Don’t move. I’ll massage you. You’re so weak. If I don’t knead properly, you’ll be sore tomorrow.”

Li Sheng massaged Mo Yueshuang properly. The loss that had just risen in Mo Yueshuang, as well as the sour grievance of being immersed in secret love, all vanished at this moment.

“Li Sheng.”

“Mm?”

“Thank you.”

Mo Yueshuang sat on the small folding stool and comfortably enjoyed Li Sheng’s service. The onlooking crowd in the crew nearly dropped their jaws.

Someone who usually even dared to rebuke Young Master Guan was now obediently giving someone a shoulder massage. This world was truly fantasy.

At this time, Le Yuantian finished filming, and Bai Qin happened to also be resting while waiting for the final scene of the afternoon.

Le Yuantian knew Bai Qin. They were both among Jiawei Media Entertainment’s first batch of artists. It was just that Le Yuantian was the first artist in the first batch to debut, while Bai Qin was the last one among the first batch of debut artists.

Unexpectedly, through a series of coincidences, they had ended up in the same crew.

At first, Le Yuantian had planned to get closer to Mo Yueshuang. Women, after all, no matter how strong, were still women. During a time when the whole internet was smearing and belittling her, she would definitely be full of grievances. Once a sunny, warm man like him appeared, he would definitely stir goodwill. After they grew a little closer, he could say some pleasing words, and it would be hard to guarantee that Mo Yueshuang would not be moved.

Unfortunately, at the beginning, he had been rebuked by Li Sheng. Later, he was unwilling to give up, but was stopped by Xie Shixian.

Now, Mo Yueshuang’s online reputation was slowly turning around, and he had heard that it was all Young Master Guan’s doing. No matter how ambitious Le Yuantian was, he did not have the guts to get involved with someone Young Master Guan had his eye on.

So after Bai Qin joined the crew, those little thoughts of his became active again.

Bai Qin had a good image. In this drama, she did not have many scenes, but her scenes were important. If the character she played was acted well, it would be an excellent tool for gaining fans. Bai Qin’s acting skills were indeed not bad either. Even Director Wen, who had strict requirements for the work, had publicly praised her.

So now, while Bai Qin was resting and playing on her phone, Le Yuantian came over.

“Bai Qin, I really didn’t expect that after entering the company together back then, we’d end up in the same crew now.”

Bai Qin glanced at Le Yuantian. During company training, she had not had much impression of this person. She only knew he was the one the company liked most among their batch, and that the company also planned to support him with all its strength.

“It is quite a coincidence.” Bai Qin’s personality was easygoing and Buddhist-like. With familiar people, she could still be lively. But when facing someone unfamiliar like this, and someone who did not suit her eyes, she could only casually greet him.

Le Yuantian did not mind. In these days on set, had he received few cold looks? Not to mention that strange-tempered, twisted-personality Screenwriter Li, even Mo Yueshuang’s assistant had given him plenty of attitude, and the eye rolls she gave him were countless.

“We’re from the same company, and we have the same manager. In the future on set, we should help each other out.”
