Chapter 465: If You Can’t Film This, You Should Have Told Me Earlier!
Speaking of that, it was a little funny. Whenever the television stations announced the name of the popular idols, they had a strong desire to survive. They would even add a bold photoshopped label. They would write it in exact legal form, afraid that they would be torn apart by fans because of any stylistic problems.
“Sheng Sheng, you have to hold on. You’ll be fine in a few days.” Fang Hua hurriedly gave her a heads-up so that she would not be criticized and suffer a mental breakdown as a result.
Ling Sheng smiled. “Don’t worry, Senior Fang Hua. I’m definitely someone who can take criticism.”
If she did not act well, it was only natural that she would be scolded by the director and corrected by him. Her heart was not that fragile.
However, Ling Sheng had underestimated Chen Mo’s ability to reprimand others. She had already mentally prepared herself while watching others being taught a lesson as they were acting. However, she was a bystander after all. She could see the flaws in his words. When she really went on stage, everything changed.
They tried to quickly develop chemistry between the actors in the first scene, especially since the two of them were a couple with a generational gap. It felt very difficult to nurture that chemistry.
Ling Sheng respected Sheng Xichen even more. As the female lead, Chao Lu, her feelings for the male lead, Feng Tu, were really complicated. She admired him and idolized him and was thus passionate and shy. She wanted to give everything she had to this man.
This scene, in particular, was her only intimate scene with Sheng Xichen. It was not very intimate, but Chao Lu gave him a scarf she had knitted personally on his birthday and plucked up the courage to confess her love to him.
Feng Tu reached out to take a plush ball from her hair, but she suddenly plucked up the courage to ask for a kiss.
Feng Tu lowered his head and kissed her forehead lightly.
Everything else had gone fine, but when Feng Tu lowered his head to kiss her, Ling Sheng’s body stiffened. She knew that this would not do. Her basic qualities as an actor were gone!
It was just a forehead kiss. It was nothing. It was just a light touch on the forehead. It was not like she had not acted before in the past. She could do it very well.
However, she did not know why, but she could not do it now. When she saw Sheng Xichen’s elegant and handsome face approach her, the Third Master’s cold, handsome face flashed across her eyes.
Sheng Xichen bent down, the smile on his lips gentle and elegant. As he looked at the young lady in front of him, his lips moved slowly as though he was looking at a precious treasure. He was careful and protective, but there was not a single hint of love.
Their faces were getting closer and closer. Ling Sheng closed her eyes, her eyelashes trembling violently, and her hands, which were hanging by her sides, clenching tightly.
Sheng Xichen moved closer and saw that the young lady’s lips were pursed tightly. Her face was pale as she resisted. He wondered if he was that annoying. Or did she think he was old?
“Cut!” Chen Mo’s face flushed with anger as he pointed at Ling Sheng. “Can you do it? Why are you acting like a piece of wood? What kind of expression is that? You should be looking forward to it but feeling shy. Why are you looking so resistant? You’re clenching your fists really tightly. Do you want to hit him? He’s the person you like, not a pervert!”
“Sorry.” Ling Sheng calmed down and looked at the director. Her throat was dry from nervousness. She knew how to act. She had simulated it 800 times, but she could not do it when it came to the real thing!
She had acted in a few intimate scenes with Gu Shen in the previous television drama, but she had never acted like this before. She simply wanted to find a piece of noodles to hang herself.
“What’s the point of apologizing?” Chen Mo pointed at her nose angrily. “I told you back then that there would be intimate scenes and you couldn’t use a substitute. You said it was alright. What’s going on now? If you can’t film this, you should have told me earlier!”
