Si Yu had read the script of this play in her previous life. She remembered the lines and positioning very clearly, so there were basically no problems with her parts during the rehearsal.
Zou Kai watched her performance from below the stage and appreciated her more and more. He had to keep such a gem, no matter what.
Chu Yuan rehearsed with her seriously. Everything seemed calm and peaceful, and the club was harmonious as usual. Everyone was on high alert, and the rehearsal went smoothly.
Zou Kai nodded his head repeatedly. Many members, who had some flaws in their acting before, had been stirred up by her emotions in their scenes with Si Yu. They got to work more smoothly, and even he, who was familiar with the script, was unknowingly immersed in it.
The lights on the stage changed, and the scene changed to a female villain's killing scene.
In this scene, in order to frame the princess, the female villain wanted to kill the princess's stepmother and frame her. However, the clever princess saw through her plan and sent her to be executed in front of all the subjects. She was sentenced to beheading for the crime of killing the Empress.
The plot reached one climax after another. Soon, Si Yu was wrestled to the guillotine, with giant blade hanging above her head.
Si Yu kept struggling in fear, her eyes were wide open as she kept saying no, but she was still firmly restrained by the guards on both sides.
Si Yu finished her last line in high spirits and was pushed down the guillotine by the guards. The blade slowly descended as the hemp rope on both sides loosened.
According to the script, this should be the scene where the female villain was finally executed, and her head was cut off.
However, the drama they were going to play would not use real guillotines, but fake guillotines made of hard materials of similar weight.
When the time came, they would use some light and shadow techniques and change positions, taking the opportunity to place the fake head in front of the guillotine. Through this, not only would the audience not see the mystery, but they could also achieve the expected effect.
The president held his breath nervously, waiting for the climax of the show.
But what he didn't know was that someone was taking advantage of this opportunity to carry out a cruel and sinister intentional injury.
Si Yu turned her head with a smile and glanced at the hemp rope controlling the guillotines on both sides of the mechanism. From the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Chu Yuan, who was standing at the side with a smug look in her eyes. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly. Then, she suddenly broke free of the hands on the two sides of the mechanism and quickly retreated.
The heavy guillotine blade suddenly smashed into the ground, scraping Si Yu's right hand.
The scene instantly became chaotic. The president's heart almost stopped. He rushed up the stage and hurriedly grabbed Si Yu's hand to check.
How did this happen? The speed at which the guillotine blade was falling was wrong. To ensure the safety of the actors, they tested it many times. The speed at which the guillotine blade was falling shouldn't have been so fast that the actors couldn't avoid it in time.
Chu Yuan also ran over to check on Si Yu's hand worriedly and asked with concern, "Are you hurt elsewhere?"
Si Yu seemed to have been scared out of her wits. She looked in the direction of the guillotine with a dazed expression. "Are you trying to murder me?"
"How is that possible? Si Yu, you're injured. I'll send you to the hospital first." Zou Kai frowned. He was also suspicious of this incident, but he had to stabilize Si Yu first. If things got out of hand, the entire drama club might be lost. Then, all his years of hard work would be in vain.
"It hurts," Si Yu sobbed and cried out in pain. When she saw the blood and the large patch of bruises on her right hand, tears rolled down from the corner of her eyes.
"Let's go to the hospital first. I don't want to damage her bones." Chu Yuan panted heavily as if she was frightened. She forced herself to remain calm and directed a few members to help Si Yu up.
At the last moment, Si Yu's gaze and smile were too thought-provoking, causing her to suddenly have a bad feeling.
She secretly gave one of them a look, and that person nodded his head imperceptibly. While everyone's attention was on Si Yu, he secretly took away the evidence left on the head.
Chu Yuan personally sent Si Yu to the hospital, and the doubts in her heart gradually faded.
Although the plan didn't achieve its final effect, making Si Yu unable to return to school to oppose her for a long time, it was fortunate that her right hand was injured. Even if it wasn't fractured, she wouldn't be able to write with her right hand for a while, according to the doctor.
No matter what, Si Yu would not be able to participate in the calligraphy competition anymore, which meant she wouldn't be able to hinder Chu Yuan's future.
"Si Yu, you forced me to do this. Don't blame me."
