Hang Dong takes Li Shang to his temporary shelter, they walk and chat at the same time.
"What have you acted in?" Li Shang asks.
Han Dong says: "I have acted in…there are many, I played an important role in the remake of Journey to the West."
Li Shang becomes interested: "What kind of important role?"
Han Dong raises his eyebrows, "Make a guess."
Li Shang has seen the drama, but because there are many Ox-Heads and Horse-Faces and very few humans, therefore it's quite difficult to guess.
He can't help but mutter: "An important role……Certainly can't be Son Wukong……"
(T/N: two guardians of the underworld in Chinese mythology)
"Although it isn't Son Wukong, but it has a close relation to Son Wukong!"
Li Shang is surprised, "Not the Six Eared Macaque, right?"
"I don't mean like the so-called species relation, I'm referring to the rival!"
"There's also a rival?" Li Shang casts Han Dong a look of envy, "The role of Son Wukong is played by a popular male lead, you are actually facing the leading actor? Are you the third crown prince of the East China Dragon Palace?"
Han Dong shakes his head, "Keep guessing."
"Bull Demon King? Metal Lord of the West? Taishang Laojun? The Pagoda Bearing Heavenly King? Erlang Shen? The monster?……" Finally, even when the Iron Princess is almost mentioned, Han Dong still shakes his head.
"Those roles you said were already picked in advance, I'm just an extra, chosen at the last moment, how can I play those roles?"
Li Shang rethinks and realizes that it's true, "Then what is your role?"
"I'm an important soldier who assists Son Wukong in Mount Huaguo in Jiangsu when he's in danger, without me he would be finished!"
"You……you played the golden cudgel?" Li Shang is stupefied.
Han Dong punches him, "You're the golden cudgel!"
Li Shang laughs until he coughs, "Then……then what is your role?"
Han Dong, neither servile nor overbearing, says loudly: "When Son Wukong blows a whistle, the first monkey to pop out is me!"
Li Shang almost chokes to death, "This role can also be called a rival role?"
"Why can't this be called a role of the rival? I also have a line."
"What kind of line?"
Han Dong immediately imitates the monkey voice, "My king!"
Li Shang wipes the cold sweat on his forehead, "What an 'important' role, but I don't think the role as a monkey is suitable for you, I think you should have taken on the role of your family's monkey king's mouth instead…………
(T/N: Technically Li Shang is saying Han Dong is all talk)
"What do you mean?" Han Dong casts a sidelong glance at him.
Li Shang is still laughing, "I'm just joking!"
"Who is joking with you?" Han Dong slowly smokes his cigarette, "You have to know your position, we are just extras, having a line isn't easy. How many people acted in dozen of films but did not even get a chance to be captured by the camera lenses! Wait until we arrive at my place, I'll show you the scene that I performed in, not many people can see it!"
Li Shang is about to open his mouth but suddenly hears Han Dong's whistle.
"Hey, beautiful, want to know your fortune? I won't take your money, only your phone number."
The beautiful woman glances at Han Dong, "pervert."
Han Dong still stares attentively at her absolutely unrestrained until the woman hurriedly walks away, he then turns back to Li Shang dangling the half cigarette butt in his mouth with a smirk, his voice reveals a deep reflection, "So flirty, dressing like that……"
Li Shang has to admit, what that woman said earlier really draws Han Dong's blood on the first prick.
(T/N: to draw blood on the first prick = Exactly right, hit the bullseye)
