Chapter 78: The Movie Star's Crazy Ex-Girlfriend (29)
By the time Gu Yiqin had finished cooking, Nan Li was already sitting on his sofa, waiting obediently.
"There's only one soup left. Wash your hands and get ready to eat," Gu Yiqin said from the kitchen.
Wen Wan nodded. She had been completely won over by Gu Yiqin's cooking skills during this time; the taste was just like that of a five-star chef. How could anyone be so perfect? Not only was he good-looking, but his cooking skills were also top-notch, and he was gentle and kind. Clearly, Wen Wan had forgotten how fierce Gu Yiqin was on set.
The last dish, pork rib soup, was served. Wen Wan first served Gu Yiqin a bowl of rice, and then served herself a bowl of rice. "Then I'll start eating. Today is another day to thank Teacher Gu."
Wen Wan picked up a piece of braised fish and put it in her mouth. It was fresh, fragrant, spicy, and tender. It was so delicious that she wanted to bite her tongue off.
"Is it delicious?" Gu Yiqin asked with a smile.
"It's delicious, so delicious! Teacher Gu, you should try some too." As she spoke, she subconsciously picked up a piece of fish and put it in Gu Yiqin's bowl. Gu Yiqin was a germaphobe, but he still put the fish in his mouth.
"Is it tasty?"
Seeing Wen Wan's bright eyes, even though he was the one who made the dish and knew exactly what it tasted like, he still nodded and said, "Delicious."
Afterwards, Wen Wan tried other dishes, and she would put a piece of food on Gu Yiqin's plate after trying each dish.
"This mushroom is delicious and so fresh."
"This dish is also delicious, Teacher Gu, please try it."
"This meat is so tender, Teacher Gu's cooking skills are really good."
"..."
While eating, the system turned into a praising pager. The system felt a little heartbroken that the host, who was worthless and would be sent away after a few meals, was going to eat. Oh well, the host wouldn't remember any of this after the mission was over.
With reader satisfaction in mind, the system started reading reader comments, watching as the official pairing was completely crushed, and the cult fans rose up and became the destined couple.
At that moment, Chen Jie called, and Wen Wan answered.
Chen Jie: "Xiao Wan, have you chosen the script I showed you?"
Wen Yan: "..."
She had completely forgotten about it.
"You didn't watch any of it?"
Wen Wan immediately said, "I'll look at it right away and get back to you, Brother Jie. I'm still eating, bye."
I hung up quickly and ate a piece of braised fish to calm my nerves.
Gu Yiqin laughed and said, "Chen Jie gave you the script? You can let me see it, and I can give you some advice."
Wen Wan thought about it and decided that it wasn't a bad idea. So after finishing her meal, she went back to her own home and brought over the script that Xiao Qi had sent over a few days ago.
After washing the dishes and drying his hands, Gu Yiqin began to read the script.
He read scripts very quickly and picked out two suitable ones from a dozen or so, which was a lifesaver for Wen Wan, who has a slight fear of making choices.
"This one is the campus drama 'Midsummer'. The female lead's character is very suitable for you. She is cute, kind, optimistic and positive. Moreover, the director is very good at shooting this kind of youth drama. Although it is a small production, it is just right for you at this time."
The focus for Wen Wan is: cute and kind? Optimistic and positive?
"I want this one."
Gu Yiqin: "There is another script called 'The Record of Rainbow Clothes'. The main creative team is good. This role is the third female lead, and the character is one that grows. It can also hone your acting skills, and maybe you can have a breakthrough."
Wen Yan: "..."
This one looks good too. "Then I'll take this one."
Gu Yiqin found Wen Wan's conflicted expression rather cute. "Actually, A-Wan can have both. The filming schedules are different. After 'The Record of Rainbow Garments' is finished, you can film 'Midsummer'."
Wen Yan: "..."
Won't she work herself to death? She's already a major sponsor, why does she still have to act in movies herself?
But this was chosen for her by Gu Yiqin, and she didn't want to disappoint him.
"Okay, I'll take it."
He quickly called Chen Jie, who also thought the two scripts were good, and then contacted them.
Wen Wan held two scripts, and Gu Yiqin began to explain the scenes to her. His gentle voice as he recited the lines left Wen Wan completely stunned.
She had seen Gu Yiqin's movies and how he coached actors on set, but watching him act in front of her still felt unreal.
"Did you understand this?"
Wen Wan: "Mm."
“What did I just say? A-Yuan, repeat it.”
"Huh?" Wen Wan snapped out of her daze. Looking at that face, she had no intention of listening to his explanation of the play. This was really testing her composure. "Why don't you say it again, Teacher Gu?"
Gu Yiqin chuckled. Nan Li stood up, ran to her room, pulled out a mask, and put it on Gu Yiqin's face. "Teacher Gu is too distracting from my acting. This is better."
Gu Yiqin: "..."
After that, Wen Wan focused her attention and learned a lot of useful information. After all, it was Gu Yiqin, the movie star, who personally gave her acting advice. She was probably the only one who had this honor.
Gu Yiqin explained the play to Wen Wan while acting alongside her. The whole afternoon passed, and Wen Wan was exhausted.
"Teacher Gu, you can't get fat in a day, and I can't become a movie queen in a day either. Let's try again tomorrow." Wen Wan was so tired that she collapsed on the sofa, not wanting to move a single finger.
Gu Yiqin knew he had been too reckless. He wished he could teach Wen Wan all his experience. Seeing Wen Wan's tired expression, Gu Yiqin put down the script. "Since you're tired, take a rest. This time, I didn't plan well."
"Thank you, Teacher Gu, for sparing my life." After saying that, she instantly fell asleep.
Gu Yiqin saw Wen Wan's breathing quickly stabilize, a slight smile appeared on his lips, and he reached out to carry her back to Wen Wan's bedroom.
Cover Wen Wan with a blanket and adjust the air conditioner to a comfortable temperature.
"good evening."
...
The next day, Wen Wan was woken up by a phone call. "Wan, I have something to tell you."
It was Jay's voice: "Go ahead."
"The role in 'The Record of Rainbow Garments' has been taken by someone else."
"Hmm?" Wen Wan perked up instantly when it came to her role.
Chen Jie: "Don't worry, that person was put in the cast by the investors. The director said there's still one role that hasn't been decided yet, but it's a villainous role with a bad character. I don't recommend you take it. After all, you'll get criticized whether you play it well or badly, and it can limit your acting career. I'll find you a more suitable script."
"Investors? Who's the director?"
"Lin Zhengquan, the director is also in a difficult position, that was a bribe from the biggest investor."
So that's why you need money!
What kind of question is this?
After hanging up with Chen Jie, Wen Wan contacted the manager of her investment company, "Get me in touch with Director Lin Zhengquan and become the biggest investor in this drama. The only requirement is that I don't have any special privileges and I won't accept any people bringing their own investment into the production."
Her manager acted quickly, and soon Chen Jie received the news.
"Director Chen said your audition is still on, I wonder which deity is helping you out."
Wen Wan: Your artist is blessed by the God of Wealth.
