Gu Mian was taken aback when she heard the words. She lifted her eyes slightly and saw Lou Che's smile like a breeze and bright moon in the dim night.
For some reason, at the moment, Gu Mian seemed to see something else in Lou Che's smile. But she couldn't understand it.
Gu Mian pursed her lips, "Then I'll listen to it thoroughly."
Lou Che chuckled, "Actually, it's not a big deal. I used to live in a dormitory with Lin Changan in a brokerage company. Our friendship was…" Lou Che paused for a while and then went on, "Very good. He would tell me what he had to do. As for me, I was the same."
Such friendship could be regarded as deep brotherhood.
Lou Che recalled slowly, "One day, as soon as he returned to the dormitory, he excitedly told me that he got the role of the third male lead "Han Shiyue" (Moon of Han dynasty). We all know that as a newcomer who had just made his debut, how difficult it was to get this role. At that moment, as a friend, I was really happy for him."
A look of surprise appeared on Gu Mian's face. If she remembered correctly, the actor in "Han Shiyue" was not Lin Changan, but Lou Che.
It was with this TV series that Lou Che slowly entered the public eye.
Gu Mian's eyes widened slightly, "What happened afterwards?"
"Later…Later, the director saw me by accident. He thought I was more suitable for this role than Lin Changan."
The third male lead in "Han Shiyue" was His Royal Highness the prince. He was graceful, luxurious, handsome and talented and wrote beautiful poems.
It was a pity that the prince's ambition was not in the country, nor in the beauty, but in poetry. Therefore, the man who succeeded in unifying the world and ruling over it was the male lead King Liang.
From the face, Lou Che had already beaten Lin Changan, not to mention that he still possessed the noble elegance inherent in him.
The role of His Royal Highness the Prince seemed to be tailored for Lou Che.
Facts had proved that Lou Che did perform that role very well. Even though that was his first TV series, his performance was still amazing.
He didn't look like a newcomer at all.
It could be said that "Han Shiyue" laid a solid foundation for his future success.
Lou Che lowered his eyes slightly, "You should have guessed what happened later. The director gave me the role."
Gu Mian tilted her head, guessing, "So, Lin Changan misunderstood you? He thought you deliberately grabbed his source?"
Lou Che glanced at Gu Mian unexpectedly, "Oh? You think it's a misunderstanding, not that I really grabbed his role?"
Gu Mian said naturally, "At that time, he was your friend, wasn't he?"
According to Lou Che's character, how could he snatch things from his friends?
As a male lead, Lou Che naturally had his means, but he had his own principles and his own bottom line.
At least he could never do anything to betray his friends.
Lou Che was a little surprised that Gu Mian trusted him so much and stood on his side without even the slightest hesitation. He laughed, "Yes, at that time, he was my friend."
They were friends, so he would not harm his friend.
It was a pity that Gu Mian understood the truth, but Lin Changan didn't.
Gu Mian pursed her lips, "Then… what happened later? You broke up because of this?"
Lou Che's eyes became darker, "Of course it's not that simple."
Although it was not Lou Che who took the initiative to get it, the role did fall to his head. Lou Che originally thought that whether it was him or Lin Changan, the one who took off first would just help the other one up.
After all, weren't they friends?
Friends should help each other.
But Lin Changan didn't think so.
He thought that Lou Che was the one who pretended to be brothers with him on the surface, talked about everything, but secretly used all means to grab resources from him.
Not to mention that Lou Che became popular with that TV series later. After Lou Che became popular, Lin Changan's mentality completely collapsed. In his opinion, this role originally belonged to him, so it should be him that should be popular.
He should be the one who accepted the audience's flowers and applause.
But everything about him was destroyed by Lou Che.
So Lin Changan thought of a means of revenge.
He installed an invisible camera in the bathroom and wanted to take a video of Lou Che while he was taking a shower, using it as a means of extortion to threaten Lou Che.
Changan's revenge was really cruel.
He tore off all the disguise and there was only jealousy left.
Gu Mian's eyes widened as Lou Che spoke lightly about what happened that year.
She never knew that the male lead had such a past.
It was not mentioned at all in "I'm So Popular".
It was true that in the hundreds of thousands of words in the novel "I'm So Popular", most of the words focused on how the female lead became hard working from a young age and how she became a popular actress step by step with her own efforts and then gained love. There were not many descriptions of the male lead's life over the previous two decades.
