Chapter 919: Chapter 901: An Intensely Devoted Kissing Scene! (12)
At this moment, the stage is entering the climax of the plot!
The second male lead, Ural (Huo Feng), is hanging by the neck in a corner, but he isn’t resting either.
At this time, the second male lead, Ural (Huo Feng), the male lead, the Phantom of the Opera (Wu Di), and the female lead, Christine (You Xinran), are performing a high-pitched duet...
The same accompaniment, but each person has their own lines!
The subtitles for the three are displayed on the screen in the performance hall, appearing chaotic but still revealing each person’s inner conflicts!
The scene where the three of them sing overlapping notes is truly classic and spectacular!
Then...
The male lead forces the female lead to choose quickly between the life of the second male lead and him; the female lead kneels, pleading with him, in great anguish and indecision...
The entire audience can see the relationship between the male lead and the female lead, causing tension throughout the scene!
The male lead looks at the female lead in great disappointment, leaving her with only one sentence, "Hurry up and choose!"
After saying that, the male lead turns around, leaving the female lead with a lonely silhouette...
Looking at his back, the female lead, Christine (You Xinran), sees twinkling stars in her dark pupils, as if she suddenly understands the mindset of the male lead, the Phantom of the Opera (Wu Di)!
She suddenly comprehends why the male lead lives such a life in this dark underground, with such thoughts...
The female lead, Christine (You Xinran), looks deeply at the male lead and slowly sings in English in a loud voice: "You poor dark creature, what kind of life do you lead?"
The female lead slowly rises from the ground, while looking at the male lead’s back, singing: "God give me courage to tell you, you are not alone—!"
The last word ’Alone’ was elongated...
After that word falls, the female lead Christine (You Xinran) reaches out and grabs the male lead’s shoulder, turning him around immediately. Looking at the terrifying face of the male lead, she holds his neck and boldly kisses him!
It’s a real kiss!
A real kiss on the lips! Moreover, it’s a deep and intense kiss! As if she has love for the male lead too!
The male lead, the Phantom of the Opera (Wu Di), is utterly wide-eyed due to her kiss! As if he can’t believe she would really kiss him this way, and with such intensity!
This is the professionalism of an actor...
You Xinran was able to do it!
In that moment, fireworks were going off in Wu Di’s head!
He is completely stunned!
This was the first time he kissed You Xinran while playing the male lead!
During previous rehearsals, You Xinran always said to wait until the performance for the real thing...
Wu Di would always look forward to the day of the performance with great anticipation!
Then this day, she really kissed his lips! And kissed with a lot of force!
This close, Wu Di could even feel her breath on his face, he didn’t dare to breathe!
And at that moment, the entire audience was equally stunned by the kiss!
The scene erupted in gasps, many who hadn’t seen this play didn’t know the female lead would really kiss this monster!
Ye Qingcao was in a state of utter shock as well, involuntarily grimacing and softly muttering, "She can really kiss him... What a sacrifice for art..."
Pu Sangzhi, watching this scene, was also taken aback!
One could say that only after seeing this scene was Pu Sangzhi completely at ease about the previous kissing scene.
She had to admit that she had watched an excellent performance today.
Every actor worked hard and succeeded, standing on stage to recreate a rendition of "Phantom of the Opera" that was as close to the original as possible, all to provide a great visual and auditory feast for the audience.
Therefore, Pu Sangzhi calmly accepted the kissing scene between Huo Feng and You Xinran.
Because the kissing scene between You Xinran and Wu Di seemed even more passionate and immersive!
Pu Sangzhi could somewhat console herself; perhaps You Xinran didn’t just kiss Huo Feng, maybe they really are sacrificing for art!
Of course, this was just a comfort.
Pu Sangzhi understood it clearly in her heart.
The plot on stage continued...
After kissing the Phantom of the Opera (Wu Di), Christine (You Xinran) hugged him tightly, throwing herself into his arms!
At this exact moment, the Phantom of the Opera (Wu Di) was still stunned, with his arms wide open, he didn’t dare to hug her!
As Christine (You Xinran) released the hug, seizing the moment as the music swelled, she cupped the Phantom of the Opera’s (Wu Di) face and kissed him forcefully once more!
This was the second kiss!
The original plot contained two kisses; You Xinran followed the original plot closely!
These sudden kisses were truly too shocking for Wu Di to handle; his heart could barely take it!
The audience became even more excited...
Ye Qingcao whispered through gritted teeth, "Kissed again, kissed again... love~"
Then, as the music ended, the Phantom of the Opera (Wu Di) pushed Christine (You Xinran) away by the shoulders, interrupting the kiss just in time!
Despite Wu Di’s inner reluctance to break the kiss...
It’s all because of the plot...
The male and female leads, both panting heavily, stared at each other.
After a while, as if the Phantom of the Opera (Wu Di) had come to some realization, he slowly walked over to Ural (Huo Feng) and untied the rope hanging around his neck...
Thus, the story reaches a point where their internal conflicts find resolution.
In the end, the Phantom of the Opera (Wu Di) completely lets go of the female lead, allowing her and the second male lead to be together, while he disappears into his underground palace...
...
This performance of "Phantom of the Opera" lasted a total of 160 minutes.
It started at 2:30 in the afternoon and ended a little after 5 o’clock!
Even though it took up the audience’s whole afternoon, after watching the show, everyone felt like they hadn’t had enough! They found it extremely captivating!
After the performance ended, all the actors came on stage for the curtain call, but Huo Feng did not appear...
He was supposed to be the third-to-last person to come out for the curtain call; during rehearsals, Pu Sangzhi, Ye Qingcao, and Yan Siyuan all saw him in the curtain call lineup.
But today, at the curtain call, he didn’t appear...
After the theater was dismissed, the audience queued to exit from the nearest doors to them.
Pu Sangzhi, Ye Qingcao, and Yan Siyuan joined the line, slowly queuing to exit.
Having watched the whole performance, Ye Qingcao, who felt somewhat unsatisfied, couldn’t stop talking to Pu Sangzhi, discussing the plot, expressing a strong interest in today’s performance.
"It was really good, Sangzhi~"
Ye Qingcao highly praised today’s performance, "I can’t believe I didn’t appreciate this performance when I was younger! I had no idea it was so good!"
"Maybe you were too young back then."
Pu Sangzhi replied with a smile, "I too only understood the plot from what Brother Ye Xi explained beside me... I don’t actually remember much of the plot, just the relationship identities between the male and female leads and the second male lead. Watching the full performance today, I realized how detailed the plot was, and the production was very attentive, and everyone acted really well."
"Yes! Everyone performed excellently! Feng’s acting was superb too!"
Ye Qingcao exclaimed excitedly, "I didn’t realize how good Feng’s acting was~ I barely noticed earlier, but when I saw Feng, I completely believed he was that character!"
"Right?"
Pu Sangzhi responded with a hint of pride.
"Yeah, yeah!"
Ye Qingcao nodded emphatically, "Feng is my idol from now on! I want to be his biggest fan!"
Pu Sangzhi patted her shoulder, giving it a gentle squeeze, "You’ll get to see your idol soon."
At this point, Pu Sangzhi had completely moved past the shadow cast by the kissing scene between Huo Feng and You Xinran.
Perhaps the final passionate kisses between You Xinran and Wu Di somehow took away her pettiness...
Pu Sangzhi was now quite impressed with these actors who could dedicate themselves to art like this.
She initially wanted to ask Huo Feng about the kiss upon seeing him, but she no longer planned to ask.
She would wait for Huo Feng to explain it.
She felt that Huo Feng would definitely provide an explanation.
Gradually, the audience left the hall one by one.
After Pu Sangzhi, Ye Qingcao, and Yan Siyuan exited, they didn’t wander around aimlessly.
The three of them simply found a random seat outside the hall and sat down, planning to wait for Huo Feng to come out from backstage, and then go have Quanjude roast duck.
Having just finished such a grand performance, they had quite a lot to talk about with Huo Feng.
Especially Ye Qingcao, who was particularly eager to ask Huo Feng how he felt after the performance!
Meanwhile, at this moment, Huo Feng...
