I've Transmigrated Into This Movie Before

Chapter 6

On this point, he was persistent in his own view, and would not budge not matter how hard Ning Ning tried to persuade him. Thus, without a choice, Ning Ning could only put the mouse beauty down and take out the only three wooden men from inside the box.

One was without arms, one without legs, and the last one was the most tragic, for everything below the waist was gone as if it had been chopped in half.

There was no other choice. Ning Ning closed her eyes for a moment, before throwing a wooden man out through the curtain.

The wooden man fell to the ground in front of Li Xiulan, and she climbed over with great difficulty to hold it in her hands. When she had a clear look of it, her tears fell uncontrollably down, dripping onto the wooden man without arms.

“Why have you picked this?” Boss Qu clicked his tongue finding it a little pitiful.

“Don’t, don’t take away my arms.” Li Xiulan’s lips started trembling. “My hands are very skillful, they can do many things if you keep them…”

“Forget it, a pair of arms that can harm their owner is not worth keeping.” It was ,after all, someone else’s arms, so Boss Qu might find it a pity at first, but would not find it pitiful for long. He started pulling her away. Meanwhile, Li Xiulan cried as she was being pulled away, turning around to look at Ning Ning from time to time – it wasn’t a pleading gaze but one filled with deep-rooted hatred. It seemed as if she had pinned all the blame of her sufferings on Ning Ning.

After the two left and a long time had passed, Ning Ning’s voice lightly traveled out from behind the curtains. “What will papa do to her?”

Wang ma said monotonously, “Don’t know.

She must know and just refuses to tell me, or doesn’t dare to tell me.

Ning Ning did not dare to delve in too deeply with her thoughts, for the more she delved the more frightened she felt. She shut her eyes and supported her head with a hand while the other hand picked up a wooden carving then let go of it – the carving fell back in the box, thump, thump. This process was repeated a few times, then, Ning Ning opened her eyes and said, “It is so stuffy. Oh right, where is that young man from before? Call him over to perform some magic tricks.”

Chen Junyan once again appeared in her courtyard, and she once again wrapped herself up tightly with only her voice travelling out from behind her mask. “What’s your name?”

“My surname is Chen.” The young man spoke with a lowered head, “My name is Junyan- jun from Jūnzǐ (nobleman), and yan from Yàntai (ink stone).”

Ning Ning nodded. This was the right name, and now that the face and the name matched that poster, it was very likely that this world is the one from the movie.

“What are you going to perform?” She asked.

Chen Junyan made a bow towards her and then he straightened his back, crossed his arms on his chest, and suddenly did a backflip. After the flip, he did a few more consecutive flips until he reached the bottom of the tree. There, he pulled out a long rope from his coat.

He gave it a toss and the rope hung itself between two trees.

Taking the ground as a support, Chen Junyan swiftly leaped up onto the rope; one foot on the rope and the other in the air, then once again crossed his arms on his chest. He waited for the rope to gradually settle down from its shaking, made another somersault, then…Boom!
