Chapter 43: 043 Rays of light
“Really? Is this really happening?” Director Tang suddenly got excited.
“Of course, it’s fake, just teasing you. I’m just a minor actor; how could I perform in a play?” Shi Lan said with a laugh.
However, for so reason, even though Shi Lan denied it, many of the crew mbers felt inexplicably that it was true, and she was just being modest.
Otherwise, how could such a young actor in her early twenties have such detailed acting skills? It was truly surprising.
In her previous life, Shi Lan really loved stage plays and had even achieved so acclaim.
But now she was An Lan, a minor actor with no experience in stage plays. It was better to keep such information ambiguous; otherwise, hackers might seize on it endlessly.
“Don’t be modest, your attention to detail is on par with a stage actor,” Director Tang gave her high praise.
Gu Chengyu stood silently on the sidelines, unable to utter a single word.
Because truly powerful things shine brightly.
The woman before him was completely different from the An Lan he had known before.
Not far away, Yan Shixiu had intended to chat with Sun Ling, but without realizing it, he too was drawn into Shi Lan’s performance.
Miss Shi’s knowledge in her previous life was vast due to the strict training of the Shi Family; she was proficient in many things, including being fluent in four languages.
Horse riding, diving, painting, and skiing were all additional skills he had seen her perform.
Furthermore, Yan Shixiu was not surprised that Shi Lan knew how to find the cara, having been a famous hand model in her previous life. However, he didn’t know that she could also act.
It seed he didn’t know Shi Lan as well as he had thought.
And the comnt from Shi Lan that she had acted in plays during her previous life’s monts of boredom was absolutely true.
…
anwhile, the props team was preparing for the second half of the scene.
“Co on, Chengyu, it’s your turn now,” Director Tang wanted to see what kind of sparks would fly between the two without them interacting directly.
Gu Chengyu walked over to Director Tang’s side, but he dared not look into Shi Lan’s eyes.
Shi Lan proved herself and unapologetically said to Gu Chengyu while getting her makeup touched up, “I know I’m excellent; you don’t need to feel insecure.”
Hearing Shi Lan’s fierce words, Director Tang did not stop her; instead, he observed that the look on Gu Chengyu’s face had shifted from disdain to bewildernt.
“Co… let’s take it from the top,” ordered Director Tang.
Shi Lan asked Sun Ling to step back with a towel, then returned to the state where she had fallen to the ground.
The rain continued as Gu Chengyu, playing a wealthy young master, was seeing off guests at the door when he heard a faint cry and imdiately rushed to the side flower bed where he found Fan Yan.
“Fan Yan, what happened?”
Shi Lan quickly got into character; in the mont she turned her head, she was no longer the frivolous actor from before but a terrified Fan Yan who had stumbled upon a murder.
Such speed in getting into character astonished Gu Chengyu.
In the cara, Fan Yan imdiately grasped Qin Zhenglin’s arm, turned her ashen face toward the doctor’s corpse, her expression filled with terror, and because of the rain, her body began to involuntarily tremble.
Seeing this scene, Director Tang thought, it was really all in the details.
At that mont, it should have been Qin Zhenglin’s turn to react, but Gu Chengyu’s mind went blank, and he even forgot his lines.
“Cut!” shouted Director Tang. “Gu Chengyu, what’s the matter?”
“I’m sorry, Director Tang, I couldn’t get into it,” Gu Chengyu released Shi Lan and apologized to Director Tang.
Shi Lan was too strong, and he couldn’t keep up.
Gu Chengyu wiped the droplets off his face and suddenly realized he didn’t know An Lan at all.
Moreover, the way Shi Lan had pushed him away without hesitation left him feeling empty in both his hands and heart.
“We had a good scene going, and now you can’t even react?” Director Tang grunted, “Adjust imdiately.”
