Ancestors, I told you to seduce the villains, not to turn evil.

Seeing Gao Qiuyue's rare guilty expression, Li Shulan felt somewhat helpless.

"I've come here to tell you something. A high-ranking leader is coming to see 'The Bloodstained River'."

"This performance is very important, and we absolutely cannot afford any mistakes."

Gao Qiuyue looked shocked: "How did we manage to alarm the top leader? This commotion is getting bigger and bigger."

At first, they were featured in the newspaper, then county leaders invited them to perform, and now even high-ranking officials have come.

The quality of "The Bloodstained River" continues to rise.

Gao Qiuyue initially only wanted to overshadow the second troupe, but the series of consequences that followed the performance of "Blood River" were completely beyond her expectations.

Back then, the Second Regiment's "Sister Liu" became a hit, but it only appeared in the military region's internal magazine and was not interviewed by outside reporters.

As a result, as soon as "Bloody River" was published in the internal magazine, the newspaper invited them to conduct an interview.

The county leaders personally extended the invitation, and Gao Qiuyue couldn't very well refuse.

She thought that was the end of it, but she didn't expect things to continue to develop.

"That's the power of a good script! The Second Troupe has suppressed the Third Troupe for so many years precisely because of Master Cao's script!"

Li Shulan felt something was wrong: "Mr. Bai Zi's script has a profound theme and is indeed good, but it is inseparable from the children's performance."

"Have you noticed that the protagonist in 'Bloody River' is a perfect match for Miaomiao, as if it was tailor-made for her?"

"A good script, coupled with good actors, can give people a different feeling every time they watch it, and the various details make people think deeply."

It's so refreshing every time I look at it.

Very few stage plays can achieve this level of achievement.

Li Shulan is the dance conductor and physical education teacher of the third troupe. In addition to being responsible for choreography, she is also a literature enthusiast.

"The Blood-Red River" deeply moved her, and she really wanted to meet this illiterate man and ask him some questions about literature.

Li Shulan thought that this illiterate gentleman must be a senior with profound experience, broad knowledge, and extensive reading.

If given the chance, she really wanted to learn from the other person.

Unfortunately, she will not have the chance to meet Mr. Bai Zi. This performance is over, and she will be leaving in a couple of days.

In the audience seats at the front, Xu Manman's ears were burning hot; she kept feeling like someone was talking about her.

But what is there to talk about about her? She is just an ordinary village girl from Xinghua Village in Guangping County.

Zhou Lei walked away for a while, and when he came back, he looked flustered.

Xu Manman asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

Zhou Lei couldn't speak, but he pointed towards the door. A large group of soldiers walked in and surrounded the entire theater grounds.

Then, a group of people dressed as leaders walked in.

Xu Manman didn't recognize any of them, so she glanced at them silently and then looked away.

Just as she was about to look away, she caught sight of a familiar figure.

Liu Boyu.

Why is he here?

Standing next to him was Han Shaohua, who looked much more serious after putting on his clothes. They followed behind a man in his fifties to protect him.

Fei Huainan looked up and glanced at it a couple more times, then lowered his gaze.

Zhou Lei then nervously said, "I ran into them as soon as I went out. They had already pulled out guns. I was terrified."

He was just in a hurry to use the restroom, and he was walking a little too fast, almost bumping into his boss.

Both sides were extremely tense at the time.

They were both afraid that the other side would suddenly make a move.

Zhou Lei stammered out a brief explanation and even showed his ID card to the other party before being let go.

Xu Manman patted his shoulder to comfort him.

"But why are all these leaders here?"

I hadn't heard of it before.

Zhou Lei happened to know this, and continued to whisper to Xu Manman, "It's said to be because of the stage play 'Blood-Stained River'."

"The leader changed his itinerary and came here specifically to see it. Moreover, I heard from someone that 'Bloody River' was written by Master Cao's junior brother, Teacher Sun."

"Look at those two people next to the leader, that's Master Cao and Teacher Sun."

Xu Manman glanced at him and saw that Master Cao was only in his fifties, dressed in a Tang suit. He was called a master because he was respected.

His writing is substantial and engaging, earning him the respectful title of "Master."

Teacher Sun is also a senior figure in the literary world and is very famous. "Teacher" is a respectful title.

Two people stood beside the leaders, and Master Cao's face was unusually grim.

The stage play he personally directed lost to "The Bloodstained River," a fact that even made the newspapers and caused him great embarrassment.

Teacher Sun followed him around, wanting to discuss "The Bloodstained River" with his senior, but after he said a couple of sentences, his senior ignored him.

Teacher Sun touched his nose, wondering how he had offended his senior.

Master Cao said coldly, "Junior brother is really amazing now. Even your senior brother admires the writing of this book."

Teacher Sun: "..."

He looked completely bewildered, not understanding what his senior brother meant!

Before he could explain, the leader told everyone to sit down, and Sun Yong didn't dare to delay.

Upon receiving the news, Tao Jing and Gao Qiuyue hurriedly came out to greet them and sat down with the leaders to talk.

As Tao Jing passed by Teacher Sun, she made a sarcastic remark: "Teacher Sun is such a good actor, he fooled both me and Master Cao."

“If you want to write a book for Gao Qiuyue, then just write it. There’s no need to promise us you won’t write it to our faces, and then go back and write it for Gao Qiuyue under some pseudonym called Mr. Bai Zi.”

After seeing "The Bloodstained River", Tao Jing investigated Gao Qiuyue thoroughly.

It was discovered that, apart from meeting Sun Yong, she had never met any other literary masters.

Moreover, in the entire Guangping County, the only person who can be compared to Master Cao is Sun Yong.

Sun Yong was stunned.

I'm completely baffled.

What's going on? His senior brother is ignoring him and speaking coldly to him, while Tao Jing is also being sarcastic and making veiled accusations.

When did he write a notebook for Gao Qiuyue?

Didn't he already reject Gao Qiuyue as his senior brother suggested?

Just as Sun Yong was about to begin explaining, the leader next to him walked over and said with a smile, "Teacher Sun, your writing is superb. This script is very insightful. Excellent, excellent."

Sun Yong looked bewildered: "Boss, I haven't written any scripts lately."

The leader was also surprised: "You're not a person who can't read characters?"

Before Sun Yong could speak, Gao Qiuyue interrupted, "Sir, the person who misreads characters is someone else, not Teacher Sun."

“I had asked Teacher Sun to write a notebook before, but he refused. That’s how I met Mr. Bai Zi by chance.”

Upon hearing this, the leader realized it was a misunderstanding.

He also thought that Mr. Illiterate was Sun Yong!

Gao Qiuyue frowned, wondering how the story had become so outrageous.

Sun Yong realized at this moment that his senior brother and Tao Jing had misunderstood. He tried to find an opportunity to speak, but both of them had cold faces and seemed unwilling to talk to him.

This made Sun Yong feel a little uncomfortable. He would naturally keep his promise. Did his senior brother and Tao Jing think he was a person who went back on his word?

Thinking this through, Sun Yong made no attempt to explain.

Soon, the performance began.

It's not "The Bloodstained River," but "Sister Liu."

This time, the Second Troupe's stage play will be a supporting role to the Third Troupe's.
