A Top-Tier Life Begins with Sarcastic Phrases

Chapter 104 Gu Yun: Still baring your teeth?

"Then I just stood there like a clothes rack, my legs were about to break, I was exhausted!"

"We have to try again this afternoon, Gu Yun. Am I not up to the task?"

Xiao Tian's cheeks were puffed up, and there were still grains of rice stuck to the corners of her mouth as she looked to Gu for comfort.

No, it wasn't comforting, it was more like complaining; she kept babbling on and on, full of a desire to share.

Don't be discouraged.

Gu Yun, known for his cynical and sometimes sarcastic remarks, readily spouts things like, "When you feel like you can't go on, go for a walk on the street, and then you'll be a pedestrian!"

Tian Xiwei was both annoyed and amused, trying hard not to spit out her food. She glared at Gu Yun and said, "Here we go again! I was about to die, but your toxic chicken soup brought me back to life!"

"This is called fighting poison with poison!"

Gu Yun suddenly understood why Chef Huang loved playing the role of a motivational speaker so much. To be honest, telling cynical motivational quotes as jokes was actually quite entertaining!

"Hey, Gu Yun, have you finished trying on the clothes?"

Xiao Tian took a sip of iced cola, her big eyes sparkling as if they were filled with electricity.

"Yeah, I finished around 11 o'clock."

Gu Yun nodded. He hadn't had much trouble; everything went smoothly. In Teacher Fang's words, it was perfect.

"ah??"

Xiaotian's competitive spirit immediately kicked in: "How could you be so fast? No way, I need to keep working hard and try to finish the test this afternoon!"

Gu Yun: "Three great illusions in life: I can do it, I can lose weight, and my efforts will be worthwhile."

"Hmm, that seems to be the case~"

Tian Xi tilted her head and thought for a moment. It seemed that trying out costumes really wasn't something that could be accomplished just by trying hard.

After a few seconds of enthusiasm, I sat down again and continued eating.

Mmm, the food smells delicious!

Gu Yun, standing nearby, murmured, "These days, people talk about working hard, but after they've moved themselves to tears, they just go back to doing nothing."

"Gu Yun!"

"You're the one who said effort is useless, you're the one who said you were moved by your own efforts, go to hell—you, you idiot!"

Tian Xiwei got impatient and punched Gu Yun on the shoulder with her small fist: "From now on, Gu Yun and the dog are not allowed to talk while I'm eating!"

Gu Yun: "Okay, then let's both be quiet."

"That's right!"

Xiao Tian nodded smugly.

It took her more than ten seconds to realize what was going on. She glared at Gu Yun with her eyes slanted, baring her fangs. She looked more like a cat than a dog.

"Gu Yun! Are you trying to get yourself killed?!"

Tian Xiwei laughed at her own stupidity, then, in a fit of anger, bit Gu Yun's wrist, finally feeling relieved: "Serves you right for calling me a dog!"

Gu Yun wiped the grease off his wrist: "It wasn't me who said that. Gu Yun and dogs aren't allowed to talk. I don't know which stupid dog said it."

"Still showing your teeth?"

Seeing Xiao Tian's annoyed expression, Gu Yun chuckled, "Actually, sometimes I think the Border Collie is a bit smarter than you."

"Gu Yun! Go to hell!"

Tian Xiwei got a little impatient, grabbed an apple and stuffed it into Gu Yun's mouth, then bit him. She clapped her hands and sat down again: "Phew~~ Xu Qi'an, if you dare to be rude to this princess again, hmph, don't blame me for being impolite!"

"Hmm hmm hmm (You get into character pretty quickly) ————"

With an apple stuffed in his mouth, Gu Yun mumbled his complaints indistinctly.

Afterwards, Chen Momo glanced up at Gu Yun and Tian Xiwei's playful antics, then immediately buried her head in her food and ate a few mouthfuls.

"With so much chili in today's rice, why is it still cloyingly sweet?"

In the afternoon, Tian Xiwei and the others continued to try on their costumes.

Gu Yun found a quiet place and began to read the script.

Deng Ke and his editing team have broken down and adapted the original novel, and this is only the first season.

At the beginning, Yang Ling, a working-class man, is imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice after being transported to another world. He solves a tax case with his modern knowledge and gains the appreciation of Wei Yuan, the head of the night watchmen, and becomes a night watchman himself.

Then they continued to solve cases until they went to Yunzhou to suppress bandits. Xu Qi'an faked his death, and the first season ended.

Gu Yun flipped through the script several times, and he had a general idea of ​​what kind of performance he should have at each stage.

During the subsequent filming, he just needs to see how the director wants him to act and what kind of state Gu Yun needs to be in.

He now has a luxurious character profile panel. While he wouldn't say he perfectly portrayed the character, he could definitely capture 98% of the essence of the role!

"Hey buddy, you're done with the audition already?"

A voice came from outside. Gu Yun looked up and saw that the person was Yan Peilun, a comedian from the Wonderful Night of Joy.

"Hmm, you're not slow either."

Gu Yun smiled.

The two are actually quite similar; both came from comedy festivals and transitioned into acting, so they unexpectedly have common topics to discuss.

"Dude, you really didn't study acting, you just quit your job, and then suddenly you started doing stand-up comedy, and then suddenly you became an actor?"

Yan Peilun was so curious!

Gu Yun's experiences sounded just like something out of a wish-fulfillment novel!

"Yeah, I've never studied acting, and after being a corporate slave for so long, I got bored and wanted to try my luck in the entertainment industry."

Gu Yun's words were half true and half false. He couldn't very well say that he had transmigrated and was cheating, could he?

"Ber, buddy, you're like you're on cheat codes!"

Yan Peilun smiled wryly: "I majored in acting and have been doing comedy for so many years before I was able to take on this role."

"You're starring in a male-centric drama right off the bat, bro, I'm so envious!"

"Oh dear, when will I ever get to this point if I work hard enough?"

Gu Yun raised an eyebrow: "Don't you sometimes feel bored and uninteresting, thinking that your best efforts are no match for someone else's casual work?"

"Is that so?!"

Yan Peilun suddenly realized what he was saying and laughed, "Brother, is my little scheme really that obvious? You've seen right through me!"

Gu Yun smiled and said, "Everyone thinks that way; it's quite normal."

After a few jokes, Yan Peilun felt that Gu Yun was a nice person, down-to-earth, and witty. The two of them had also come from similar routes.

"Tsk, you know, we're not that different from each other, inside and out, we both come from a comedy background."

Yan Peilun clapped his hands, looking frustrated: "How can the difference be so big?"

Chen Momo, who had been watching the drama unfold, couldn't help but retort, "Maybe, perhaps, maybe it's because you're not handsome enough."

Yan Peiren straightened his hair, looked in the mirror, and continued to tease, his voice slightly stammering: "Gu Yun, am I...am I not handsome?"

Gu Yun said with certainty, "Handsome! How could you not be handsome? This outfit was designed by Teacher Fang; it's absolutely ingenious!"

"Hey, no, I'm talking about myself, me!" Yan Peilun pointed to himself.

Gu Yun was silent for a moment, then patted Yan Peilun on the shoulder and said solemnly, "Do you know Little Li?"

"Of course!" Yan Peilun exclaimed with delight, "You mean I look like Leonardo DiCaprio? Or Blue Planet Grass?"

Gu Yun shook his head: "No, I lost my ID card. What you just read was my ID card."

Yan Peilun: "6"
