Chapter 29: The Trick



Translator: Du Yiran

Proofreader: Prof Zhu Yuan

Bo Yu is still busy acting for the exterior scenes in the Xiaxian Town. He doesn’t know what happened in Huacheng City.

“Cut! Cut! Cut!” Director Qiu angrily points to Chu Wenwen and swears, “Chu Wenwen, you are stupid. I’ve just asked you to kiss the male protagonist! It’s not a French kiss, can’t you kiss just on his face?”

Chu Wenwen still stands with a gloomy face and says nothing when she is scolded by Director Qiu.

Bo Yu, who is in a coma leaning against a tree, opens his eyes and watches Chu Wenwen succumbing to Director Qiu with interest.

That scene is about the male and female protagonists in danger. In order to protect Zhuang Xu’er, Zhu Ya is in a temporary coma. Zhuang Xu’er, who has admired Zhu Ya for decades, sees that her Zhu Ya in a coma and can’t help kissing him.

In order to ensure the aestheticism of the frame, Zhuang Xu’er only kisses his side face.

But even so, Chu Wenwen still can’t do that.

God knows how disgusted she is, when she sees Bo Yu. And she really wants to kill the homosexual who defiled Song Shilin!

So, she would rather die than kiss a person she hates so much!

But Director Qiu doesn’t know Chu Wenwen’s thoughts. He only needs the female protagonist to smoothly complete his shooting requirements. And he doesn’t care about anything else!

Director Qiu feels angry that Chu Wenwen is just like the dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water and scalding. He can’t think of the occasion and swears, “Chu Wenwen, if you don’t want to act, get out of here! I’m not afraid of your Chu family. Don’t lose your rich lady’s temper in my place!”

Chu Wenwen’s body is stiff for a while. After Director Qiu says that, she doesn’t dare to trick again and obediently acts according to Director Qiu’s requirements.

The kissing scene is completed by one take. Director Qiu hums, talks about the scenes to Bo Yu and leaves Chu Wenwen alone.

Bo Yu wipes his cheek with the back of his hand without trace, and the expression on his face remains unchanged.

Chu Wenwen feels disgusted and refuses to kiss him. Likewise, he doesn’t want to be kissed by her.

Director Qiu pretends not to see Bo Yu’s cold-shouldered action.

Chu Wenwen stands not far away, sees all Bo Yu’s actions, turns around angrily and leaves, and then rinses her mouth for ten minutes.

After Director Qiu simply describes the next play, he pats Bo Yu on the shoulder and reminds him, “That girl has a bad temper. Don’t mind that. However, I hope you don’t take your personal emotions into the next acting.”

Bo Yu smiles and says, “No. I don’t care about it. I’m a big man and she’s a little girl.”

However, Bo Yu doesn’t care about her trick, but Chu Wenwen still makes trouble for him.

In the afternoon, there is a scene to be shot in the water. In a coma, Zhu Ya is pushed into the ice lake by the demons. The female protagonist is anxious to rescue him.

Actors and actresses are tortured by the scenes shot in the water in the late autumn, let alone that they will act in the natural lake in the deep mountains and forests.

The lake water is crystal and extremely cold. When the hands touch the water, one feels as if one is in the ice water.

Bo Yu looks at Chu Wenwen not far away, feeling uneasy and worrying that he will be tricked in that scene.

Sure enough, Chu Wenwen has NG for more than ten times, completely ignoring Bo Yu in the lake when they act that scene.

There is silence on the set, and everyone feels something strange. But nobody dares to accuse Chu Wenwen of her trick.

Director Qiu feels very angry. He hasn’t thought that Chu Wenwen would do such an excessive thing.

That is the sixteenth time for Bo Yu to emerge in the lake. Bo Yu expressionlessly looks at Chu Wenwen who is standing on the side of the lake and apologizing.

Chu Wenwen apologizes, “I’m sorry, I suddenly forgot my words. Once again, I’ll finish this time!”

Bai Yu wipes a water mark on his face without saying a word.

Chu Wenwen secretly raises eyebrows to Bo Yu in provocation, and the corner of her mouth raises a disdainful smile.

Bo Yu’s expression becomes cold all of a sudden.
