American Comics: Something's Wrong with This Superhero World

Chapter 222 Sneak Attack

Watching the two people who were focused on practicing their acting, Guan Gu felt a surge of excitement.

However, when Guan Gu Shenqi looked at the clothes the two were wearing, he couldn't help but feel a little unsatisfied, remembering that this was just a rehearsal. His initial enthusiasm subsided slightly.

Guan Gu Shenqi watched them finish rehearsing a scene, his heart filled with hesitation, struggling between restraint and composure. Finally, unable to suppress his excitement, he asked, "During actual filming, are they also wearing underwear?"

Upon hearing this question, Tang Youyou unconsciously scratched her cheek before explaining, "It depends on the director's and actors' 'status.' Some can wear flesh-colored bodysuits, while others have to take them off."

After hearing Tang Youyou's answer, Guan Gu Shenqi offered a suggestion: "So, Youyou, you're not sure either? Youyou, your status isn't that high. To avoid stage fright later, it's better to plan for the worst, right?"

Tang Youyou was taken aback by Guan Gu's words. She looked at him in surprise, then asked thoughtfully, "You mean, we don't need to wear these for the play?"

Guan Gu Shenqi nodded and answered affirmatively, "That's right, that's exactly what I mean. You can relax more and act more naturally, and try to recreate the situation on set as accurately as possible. This will make the practice more effective, right?"

Tang Youyou looked at Guan Gu Shenqi thoughtfully for a while, then suggested...

"Guan Guan, are you busy right now? The next scene is about the female lead, Tang Youyou, secretly having an affair with her neighbor behind her fiancé Kaifeng's back. Can you help play the cheated fiancé, Kaifeng?"

Upon hearing this suggestion, Guan Gu's eyes sparkled with anticipation, curiosity, and even a hint of excitement.

"Actually, I'm not that busy, it's no problem. How am I supposed to act?"

Tang Youyou was satisfied with his reaction and began to explain in detail.

"This scene tells the story of Kaifeng secretly eavesdropping on his fiancée and his neighbor's lover through the wall. So, I suggest you hide in the closet, close the door, and pretend to be eavesdropping. This will make my performance feel more realistic, since you're right next to me."

After hearing Tang Youyou's suggestion, Guan Gu Shenqi was so excited that his eyes were bloodshot, and he nodded in praise with a broad smile.

"Youyou, you're so thoughtful. This will definitely make the performance more vivid and realistic."

Guan Gu Shenqi didn't say much after that. He walked over, opened the wardrobe door, squatted down, pushed the clothes aside, and crawled inside. After a short while, he adjusted his position and closed the wardrobe door.

"I'm all ready." Guan Guan's voice trembled slightly with excitement.

Seeing Guan Gu magically enter the cabinet, Tang Youyou's face revealed a satisfied and expectant smile. She turned around and said to Xiao Xiandao in front of her.

"Then let's start practicing as Guan Guan suggested. Let's remove any obstacles that shouldn't exist first."

"He's peering through the gap." Xiao Xian looked at the wardrobe and whispered in Tang Youyou's ear, "I'll press you down on top of it later, that way there will be a blind spot."

"You're so naughty~" Tang Youyou patted Xiao Xian's chest shyly and whispered, "Guan Gu is still in the room~"

"Then forget it?" Xiao Xian asked back.

"No, this is better. And I think Guan Gu would probably be happy to see it too." Tang Youyou glanced thoughtfully in the direction of the wardrobe, then said meaningfully, "It wouldn't matter if he even saw it."

Tang Youyou wasn't stupid. Guan Gu, that jealous king, had repeatedly tried to match her up with Xiao Xian, and he even seemed incredibly excited about it. Even if Tang Youyou was slow to realize it, she could guess what was going on.

"No, no, no~ He has to personally tell me to make this a real relationship before I can act like this in front of him."

Xiao Xian shook his head and said that compared to forcibly pushing Guan Gu Qi Shen, it was better to let him indulge in pleasure and choose to actively push himself so that he could collect more emotional power.

"You're so naughty~ But it's definitely more exciting this way~" Tang Youyou chuckled, gradually succumbing to the ultimate pleasure, feeling not only no guilt but also excitement.

"Then tell him tonight that you don't want to act with me anymore, because although the practice went very well, I'm too handsome, and you feel too excited, unable to control yourself, and even a little tempted to take it all the way to real life." Xiao Xian touched Tang Youyou's cheek and whispered in her ear, "Remember to act more affectionately."

"Huh? Why? That way we can't use this as an excuse to practice anymore," Tang Youyou said reluctantly.

"Don't worry, he'll beg you to keep practicing. You've even come up with an excuse for him—practicing with me is very effective, isn't it?" Xiao Xian said with a slight smile.

"If he's depraved enough, he'll tell you that it's okay to take things too seriously, and once that door is opened in your heart, it's not far from completely breaking down your defenses."

"I understand. I'll talk to him tonight. With my acting skills, he definitely won't notice anything amiss," Tang Youyou said confidently with a smile.

After leaving Guan Gu's room, Xiao Xian stretched, then drew a portal, stepped out, and arrived at Leonard and Penny's house. Like Guan Gu, Shenqi, and Zeng Xiaoxian, Leonard and the others had almost completely fallen into depravity.

At that moment, everyone was having a gathering at Leonard's house. Xiao Xian walked up and gave Sheldon a look, and Sheldon obediently gave up his reserved seat.

Unlike Leonard and others, Sheldon's fall did not require sacrificing Amy, but rather his special seat. Although this may sound a bit hurtful, if it really required taking Amy to completely corrupt Sheldon, Xiao Xian felt that it was unnecessary for everyone to maximize their corrupting power.

After sitting in Sheldon's reserved seat, Penny got up from next to Leonard and knelt down next to Xiao Xian to massage his legs. Priya got up and went behind the sofa to massage Xiao Xian's shoulders, while Bernadette nestled in Xiao Xian's arms and fed him a washed cherry.

"This is a wonderful life," Xiao Xian said, grabbing Priya's hand that was massaging his shoulders and rubbing it. Then he looked at Raj and said...

"Raj, I remember you had an ex-girlfriend named Emily? Do you still have her contact information?"

"And one more thing." Raj nodded, looking at his sister who seemed flattered by Xiao Xian's advances, and said, "Should I call her over?"

"When I have time sometime," Xiao Xian said with a smile. Suddenly, a reflection outside the window caught his attention. Then, a sniper bullet pierced the glass and headed straight for Xiao Xian's forehead.

Thanks to the improved physical fitness brought about by long-term dual cultivation, even though he was not next to Anmanette and had not unlocked his super reaction, Xiao Xian still reacted in time. With the support of magic, he extended his index and middle fingers and accurately caught the bullet that was about to hit his brow.

"A superhuman from the church?" Xiao Xian looked at the cross pattern engraved on the bullet and his fingers, which had been burned and peeled but had immediately recovered thanks to the super regeneration effect, and immediately understood the attacker's identity.
