accidental

The windows of the dance studio were wide open. Li Suiwen stood in front of a mirror that covered an entire wall. The mirror reflected the scene outside the window. The rain had knocked down many leaves that still had green leaves, and each one was captured by the camera.

Taking advantage of the sudden rainstorm, Li Xuanyue suddenly decided to shoot a shot of Li Suiwen dancing in the dance studio.

Because of her sudden idea, the lack of clear instructions, and the somewhat superficial description, the art director directly pulled the costume designer to discuss with Li Suiwen, and finally chose a champagne-colored dance dress with a gray tone, which was similar to the background and stood out.

After making some simple modifications to the scene and determining Li Suiwen's position, Li Xuanyue planned to shoot a take first to test the feeling. She had not yet decided where to put this clip.

Today, Li Suiwen was filled with an unconcealable joy, which could not help but show through her bright eyes and revealed in her light dance moves. The skin-tight dance dress showed the graceful curves of her upper body, and the layers of skirt swaying back and forth were like a blooming flower.

Her dancing is light and graceful without losing her own resilience and beauty. The flower-like skirt sometimes looks like waves crashing on the beach.

Soon, the song ended. Li Xuanyue stared at Li Suiwen, feeling that something was missing. She looked at the art director Yang Shaoyun.

Yang Shaoyun felt a chill on his back. Although he resisted in his heart, he still asked, "What's wrong?"

"Don't you think it's too harmonious?"

"..." Yang Shaoyun said with a fake smile, "Really?"

"I want this scene to have a little more of a sense of destruction." Li Xuanyue looked at the costume designer. "This dress suits Li Suiwen, but I don't think it suits He Qiao. Is there a dress that's hazy, fresh, and a little damp and cold?"

“…” The costume designer thought for a while and looked at Li Suiwen.

Li Suiwen was still sitting on the chair wearing the same dance dress she had worn before. She tilted her head and looked out the window in a daze. When she thought of Bai Shunan, she shook her legs lightly.

A dress flashed through the designer's mind. He turned around and looked at Li Xuanyue, "Do you want a long dress with a simple style, an oil painting feel, and bright but not lively colors?"

"almost."

Li Xuanyue pondered for a moment, then stood up and walked towards Li Suiwen. "I'm planning to place this scene around the time when He Qiao decides to break up with He Yu. So, I hope He Qiao's inner struggle can be expressed through this dance. When you dance, look a little cold and worried. Your movements can be a bit stiff and paused, not so seamless. You should also show some conflict and anger, and finally, some determination. The rest is up to you."

Li Suiwen nodded.

Li Xuanyue went to talk to the stylist again, "Tie your hair looser..."

At this time, Jiang Yingshan, who played the heroine He Yu, walked in from the door. She took a few deep breaths as she ran up. Her casual fluffy, slightly curly hair that almost reached her shoulders was a little messy due to the wind, and the ends of her hair kept swaying on her fair and slender neck. Her face had an effortless beauty, with a rosy complexion, regular features, and the gentleness brought by her eyebrows and eyes did not lose her overall temperament. She had a very energetic and pretty face.

Jiang Yingshan's gaze, which was constantly searching for something, did not stop until it fell on Li Xuanyue. When her gaze stopped, she quickly developed a kind of restrained stability after locking onto the target. When she saw Li Xuanyue looking at her, a hint of joy leaked out.

Li Xuanyue took a look and then turned back to continue, "It feels like a runaway bride."

The costume designer brought out a plain white sleeveless satin dress without any decoration, but it was well-cut and designed.

When Lai Sui-wen tried it on, the skirt reached her ankles, and the low-sloping waistline accentuated her waist and hips more than her previous dance dress. As she walked, the few pleats swayed like ripples on water, creating a natural beauty that leaped out at the eye.

When Li Xuanyue saw Li Suiwen like this, a smile quickly appeared on her face. She overturned her previous plan to use natural light and quickly went to communicate with the lighting team.

I was busy from morning to afternoon before I finally decided on the shooting direction.

The camera facing the window slowly moved towards Li Suiwen, and the moonlight-like light sprinkled on Li Suiwen, and she suddenly felt a sense of holiness. She withdrew her gaze from the window, looked at herself in the mirror indifferently, and began to dance. The dance steps were soft and light at first, but from some step on, they became heavier and stronger, and later every step seemed to be danced with all her strength, with annoyed eyes under her slightly furrowed brows, and she moved her limbs tentatively and cautiously as if afraid of making mistakes.

The lights kept moving, sometimes hitting her hair like a veil. One time she jumped up, the hairband finally couldn't be forced to fall to the ground. Wind kept blowing into the room, blowing up her long hair, and the swirling mist spread, and her hair seemed to be filled with fragrance.

She fell to the ground, stood up again, and danced again. This time, the heaviness gradually dissipated, as if the more she danced, the more relieved she felt. In the end, she even felt a sense of relief. She really felt like the "runaway bride" that Li Xuanyue had described. The moving light seemed to crown her, and a halo lingered. The scattered dust was filled with mist, like broad wings. After the last leap, she stood up straight, and the next second she let herself fall to the ground again.

He Qiao sat up, took out the hairband from the ground, and slowly tied her hair. Her expression gradually returned to indifference, and compared to the initial look, there was now more calmness in her eyes.

"Ka, very good, Suiwen, you danced well." Li Xuanyue smiled with satisfaction. She turned to look at Jiang Yingshan who was standing beside her, "I still feel more at ease with you two."

"What happened to the other couple?" Jiang Yingshan asked in a flat tone.

“It’s very worrying.”

Jiang Yingshan was silent for a while, then said to Li Xuanyue, "Do you think they can do it next week?"

Li Xuanyue's good mood at the moment was not affected by the recollection of those two people. "Don't worry, Lu Jinfeng will be fine. I've given him a week to adjust on his own. He will convince himself and maybe even try to like the actor who plays Qi Ci. Lu Jinfeng is a person you don't need to worry about."

"Is Lu Jinfeng an experiential person?"

"Hmm," Li Xuanyue took a sip of water and tucked the hair hanging down from her forehead behind her ear. "I only realized after working with him once that he often gets caught up in his acting. I don't know if he's made any progress over the years."

Li Xuanyue laughed as she recalled something. "That's how he got so many romance rumors. Every time he started dating, he'd break up right away if things didn't work out. He's so irresponsible and has offended so many people. I guess he'll have to retire from acting before he can find a long-term partner..."

"Will he retire from acting?" Jiang Yingshan perked up a little.

Li Xuanyue looked at the screen in front of her, a look of regret involuntarily showing on her face, "He has had this plan in recent years."

"Why?" Jiang Yingshan, who had just entered the industry, was puzzled. "He's not even thirty."

Li Xuanyue was so sleepy that she covered her mouth and yawned, "You probably haven't met Xiaoshun yet."

"I haven't seen him." Jiang Yingshan didn't care much about the new actor, she said coldly.

"You'll understand once you meet Xiaoshun. As long as he stands there, a bunch of people will make up stories for him, so I don't expect him to perform well, as long as he doesn't act out of place."

Li Suiwen, who jumped from morning to afternoon, passed by.

"Are you optimistic about him?" Jiang Yingshan frowned.

"Well enough."

Jiang Yingshan looked at the smile on Li Xuanyue's face, and pinched the wrist of her other hand with one hand. She looked at Li Xuanyue and asked, "What do you think of me?"

The darkened screen reflected Jiang Yingshan's appearance. Li Xuanyue looked over there and saw her nervousness. The words "You are very talented" were on the tip of her tongue. When she looked up at Jiang Yingshan, she saw her sincere eyes fixed on her with expectation and...admiration. She changed her words and said, "You are as talented as Lu Jinfeng."

Jiang Yingshan loosened his wrist and smiled: "Now I'm really curious about the new actor."

"Why?"

"You not only praised him, but were also very tolerant of him."

"Is there?"

"Well, you obviously have very high expectations for acting," Jiang Yingshan, who had been NGed multiple times in the previous scene, said with a hint of displeasure in his tone, "It's enough for him to just be good-looking. I'm really curious about what he looks like."

Li Suiwen, who had been shooting a scene for almost a day, passed by again.

"How should I put it? It feels like sunshine after snow."

Jiang Yingshan, who had already looked unhappy, looked even worse after hearing these words. Li Xuanyue had said not long ago that she was suitable for snowy days and always praised her, but now she was praising someone else.

Jiang Yingshan exhaled. She was constantly competing in her heart, wanting to sneer sarcastically, but finding that she couldn't laugh, she looked at Li Xuanyue with a cold face. She didn't like to hide everything, so she mustered up the courage to argue and said bluntly: "Is his acting better, or am I?"

"To be honest, I don't know. I haven't really filmed him. Yingshan, isn't this your first time filming? I watched Xiaoshun's previous films a few days ago. He has made great progress. If you have time, you can exchange filming experiences with him."

Jiang Yingshan: “…”

Li Suiwen passed by again: "Shun An's acting is good~"
