Before hanging up the phone, Ai Zhe said, “There’s something else. Gu Linyan seems to have suggested that you look through some professional information. Did something happen during the audition?”
Yun Xi’s face immediately turned red.
She reckoned that it was probably because Gu Linyan felt that her movements were awkward and needed his guidance during the filming. Otherwise, it would be a complete mess.
However, how could there be any professional information on such matters?
‘Is Gu Linyan serious about this?’
“I got it.” Yun Xi was too embarrassed to tell the truth and only replied, “I’ll study hard.”
“Okay.” Ai Zhe did not ask any further and hung up the phone.
Yun Xi ate dinner alone. She put Yun Huai’s portion into the fridge and went back to her room to read the script.
There weren’t many scenes for her to shoot, only six in total.
The first scene was to follow her father to a Mafia meeting. She was arrogant and domineering towards her family. She pulled out a gun and pointed it at the other party’s head, saying harsh words. She played the good cop for her father and gave the other party a hard time.
The second scene was a gunfight. The daughter of the Mafia boss offended someone during the meeting. The other party spread the news on the underworld and offered a huge reward for her life. Thus, the male protagonist forged his identity and applied for her bodyguard, successfully infiltrating the family.
The third and fourth scenes were all sex scenes. The male lead had obtained important information about the family and completed his mission.
In the fifth scene, the male lead had successfully led the internal division of the family to create conflicts with the opposition. The three parties engaged in a fierce battle. The male lead and the police benefited from the conflict. The young mistress of the underworld had died in the chaotic battle.
In the sixth scene, she returned to her original job and acted as a corpse.
With all the plots added up, if the progress was fast, the filming could be finished in three days. Yun Xi therefore asked the professor for three days’ leave in advance, preparing to join the crew the day after tomorrow.
Yun Huai only arrived home at around 11 pm. He seemed to be in a good mood and told her some interesting stories about work.
Watching him finish a whole pizza, Yun Xi told him that she was going to leave for three days.
Yun Huai was silent.
After a long while, he asked, “What role is it?”
Yun Xi didn’t dare to tell him the truth. She deliberated over her words. “This time, there are lines and the character has a name. The male lead is Gu Linyan.”
Yun Huai was shocked.
“What?” Yun Xi pretended to be calm and joked with him. “You can’t believe that your sister can act alongside the best actor?”
“Are you also going to act as a corpse?” Yun Huai also laughed.
Yun Xi rolled her eyes at him and paused for a moment before adding, “Alright, for the last scene, I’m still going to play a corpse, but before my character dies, she plays a very important role!”
Her younger brother laughed loudly, and after laughing, he felt a little sorry for her.
“You’ll definitely become famous,”Yun Huai said. “Even if you can’t become Zhou Yining, you’ll always be a big star in my heart.”
Yun Xi suddenly felt a lump in her throat.
He didn’t know that she would never become the cold and noble queen Zhou, because his “big star” was acting in erotic scenes.
“Rest early.”She left as if she was fleeing. “I’ll continue reading the script.”
However, after returning to her room, she didn’t read the script.
Instead, she found an erotic movie and watched it with an attitude of watching, studying, and appreciating art.
The male actors didn’t show much skin but the main point was the actresses’ performance. To be beautiful and realistic — to convince the audience that the male and female protagonists were really intimate.
But it was too difficult.
During the passionate scenes of the movie, Yun Xi imitated the expression and voice of the actresses in erotic movies and tried to immerse herself in the plot. In the end, she only gasped a few times and felt that it was too strange. She couldn’t bring herself to continue watching and had no choice but to sleep under the quilt.
For the next two days, she went to class as usual, worked, read the script, and watched movies.
Before she joined the crew, Qi Chen came to look for her.
He was wearing the tie that she had given him.
Yun Xi looked at him and thought calmly in her heart that it really suited him.
“Do you have time?”Qi Chen was still gentle.. “Do you want to have a drink?”
