Chapter 286: Turning Evil For the Sake Of Doing So
Sheng Xichen would be playing the male lead, Feng Tu, who was a university professor. He was gentle, elegant, young, and promising. At 23 years old, he had gotten a Mathematics degree at Cambridge and a double doctorate in computer science. His father was a Fellow of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and his mother was a music professor at Huaxia University. They were a truly intellectual family.
After graduation, he had returned to the country and taught at the Imperial Capital University’s Mathematics Department. The following year, he had been given the title of a professor. He had led a pure life and had never been involved in any scandals. He was worthy of being called a gentleman, as he was both elegant and noble.
He was 28 years old yet still single. He was the living symbol of the Imperial Capital University. Because of him, many girls had applied to enter the Imperial Capital University’s Math Department just to catch a glimpse of his elegance.
In order to meet him, countless unregistered students would come to attend his class. Only with restrictions could he give lessons normally.
However, no one knew that their professor was actually a very well-closeted gay man.
The female lead, Chao Lu, had been a straight-A student and a math fan ever since she was young. She had won countless domestic and international Mathematical Olympiad awards and had even represented the country by competing at international competitions. She had won championships and brought glory to the country.
Sometimes, the heavens were unfair. Not only was Chao Lu a straight-A student, but she was also a beauty. From elementary school to high school, she had always been the school belle. She was a heavenly existence. She was the typical child that other parents always referred to for comparison.
At 16 years old, she had been admitted to the Imperial Capital University’s Math Department. The moment she had seen his picture, she had known that she was in love and had decided to date that man.
She had graduated from the Morning Dew Research Institute at 22 years old. The two of them had gotten married, and she had become the envy of everyone at the Imperial Capital University. She had become a winner in life.
After that, she had started working, had a child, and led a good life. However, after she got pregnant, Feng Tu entered the country’s secret scientific research institution to further his studies. He left for four years. When he returned, the child was already three years old.
When Feng Tu returned, he was the same as before. He was a gentle and considerate husband who knew how to cook, shared the housework, and dealt with his wife’s doubts. He would go to work on time, take care of his son, and take him to school.
Besides the fact that their weekly marital duty had become biweekly, everything else was perfect. It was so perfect that it felt unreal.
Chao Lu was still envied by everyone. Everyone said that having a gentle and considerate husband with a handsome face was a blessing from her previous life.
As time passed, Chao Lu also felt that she was very blessed. She was a million times happier than a woman with a broken family and an adulterous husband who only shed tears.
When she accidentally discovered her husband’s chat history one day, she did not know that this would be the start of her nightmare…
When the casting ended in the afternoon, the film crew of “My Wife” @ Fang Hua, Sheng Xichen, and Ling Sheng announced that filming would start officially on December 13th.
Many people dreamed of playing a role in a film of Director Chen Mo. The moment the official announcement was released, the entire entertainment circle exploded.
Fang Hua and Sheng Xichen could understand. After all, they were Best Actors. Ling Sheng’s role was puzzling. Without any prior work, and given the fact that she had been ridden with scandals, how had she been chosen to play the young female lead?
Some people even speculated that Ling Sheng had a backer with capital who operated behind her. He controlled the casting of the movie and had pushed for her to be cast. They believed this firmly. After all, she had forced Hua Ying to apologize. What could she not do?
In an instant, there were mixed reactions on the internet. Ling Sheng’s name had become more popular than Sheng Xichen and Fang Hua’s names. She was the number one trending topic.
