Chapter 4 Invitation to button up your clothes
Yu You rested for two or three days, and Shi Sanlin sent him an electronic version of the script.
It’s called a script, but it’s actually just a short half-page document with a total of four or five lines.
This is a high school campus drama, and he plays a small role who has a crush on the heroine. He sends an umbrella on rainy days and secretly puts cold medicine in the desk of the sick heroine. His role is to cause misunderstandings and cause jealousy between the young couple. He is more like a tool and background board.
After all, it's good enough for a small role that was gotten through the backdoor with the relationship of Xingtian Entertainment to have a few lines.
For the director, giving such a small role can not only give an explanation to the investors, but also it is no big deal even if the actor with connections does not perform well. He can just close his eyes and pretend he didn't see it.
Shi Sanlin drove him to the crew and introduced them on the way: "This drama is invested by Xingtian Entertainment. The female lead is a newcomer, but she's quite famous. She's Mr. Jiang's cousin, Jiang Mingyan. Your scenes will all be with her. We'll be shooting for two days. The crew will provide accommodation, but the hotel rooms are very tight, with only one single room left. I have other things to do tomorrow, so it's okay for you to stay here alone, right?"
Yu You said obediently: "Brother Shi, I'm fine."
"That's good. I was initially worried that President Jiang might have banned you because of the trending search. I asked my sister several times but there was no news. I was worried for two days, but luckily everything was fine in the end."
Shi Sanlin couldn't help but feel relieved when he thought about it. Then he suddenly remembered something. He turned his head while driving and said to Yu You, "By the way, Xiao Yu, did you wear perfume today? The smell of iris perfume is very strong."
Yu You sat properly with his hands on his knees. He was stunned when he heard this: "Iris... perfume?"
Shi Sanlin said, "Yeah. The car is a closed space, so it's quite obvious, but it smells really nice. When did you buy this bottle of perfume? I don't think I've seen you wear it before."
Yu You's heartbeat quickened, and he felt a little uneasy. He hurriedly grabbed the collar, lowered his head, put his nose close to it, and sniffed it lightly.
The delicate fragrance like clouds and snowflakes slowly spreads, refreshing the heart.
It was the smell of pheromones that seeped out from his skin.
He was too familiar with this scent, and since he had no fever symptoms in the past two days, he relaxed and didn't notice it at first.
"I did spray iris perfume. Maybe I accidentally applied too much." Yu You's heart was pounding, but he remained calm and composed. He smiled, "The director shouldn't dislike irises like President Jiang does, right?"
"That's not something I've heard of." Shi Sanlin said happily, "There are quite a few people like Mr. Jiang."
The car became quiet. Shi Sanlin focused on driving and did not continue the conversation.
Yu You was no longer as calm as he was at the beginning. He became nervous and uneasy, and opened the closed car window a little to ventilate.
How can this body have pheromones?
Could it be that... his physique also traveled through time?
Yu You curled his fingers slightly and bit his lip. For the first time, he felt at a loss and couldn't imagine what he would do in this world without inhibitors.
I don’t know if it’s a psychological effect, but I felt the side of my neck starting to feel hot and throbbing.
Time did not give Yu You any chance to think more. Shi Sanlin quickly drove to the crew and took Yu You to meet the director.
It was a break in the crew's filming. The director had been informed early in the morning. When he saw Shi Sanlin and his men coming, he just nodded lukewarmly and asked Yu You to stand aside and wait for the styling team.
The stagehand reminded: "Director, Fang You is here."
The director said irritably, "He was the only one late last night, and he's late again today, making everyone wait! Are we going to continue the performance or not?"
Fang You's agent came with him and said to the director with a big smile, "Sorry, Director, I don't know who leaked the hotel address. There have been a lot of fans blocking him these past few days, and there are no new hotels nearby..."
Fang You was born in a talent show and switched from being an idol to acting. He is the third male lead in this drama. A short drama in which he played the affectionate male lead was broadcast these days and suddenly became popular. He was on countless hot searches, and even yesterday some people were guessing whether he was Jiang Xunzhou's rumored girlfriend.
"I'm sorry, Director. I'm really sorry for causing you trouble."
Fang You also bowed repeatedly to apologize.
The director's expression softened slightly: "Alright, hurry up and get ready for the styling."
Originally, according to the notice given by the coordinator, after the female lead and the third male lead Fang You had their scenes together, the female lead should have discovered that Yu You's character had a crush on her. Now, because of Fang You's lateness, the subsequent scenes have to be readjusted.
As a result, something went wrong when Fang You was doing her styling. She was not satisfied with this and felt that something needed to be changed there. In the end, her agent and the crew members had a quarrel.
When the news came back, the director started to get angry and sent the on-site producer over there to urge them again and again.
Shi Sanlin and Yu You stood in the corner, ignored by everyone.
"Well, can we still take the photo today?"
Shi Sanlin had never encountered such a thing before and was dumbfounded.
Yu You had a guess in his mind and whispered, "This drama is adapted from a novel. I found the original novel and read it over the past two days. The role of the third male lead is very controversial. Fang Yougang became famous because of a short drama in which he played the male lead. He may not want to continue acting, but he doesn't want to pay the penalty for breach of contract. So he is making some insignificant moves, hoping to get the production company to fire him and finally give his fans some trouble."
Shi Sanlin hesitated: "Not really, right?"
Yu You tugged at the collar of his clothes, a little absentmindedly, and asked, "Brother Shi, do you feel stuffy here?"
Shi Sanlin nodded, not understanding why. "It's quite stuffy, but it's just indoor studio filming, so it's always like that. You'll get used to it."
The on-set producer in charge of urging the crew to come back quickly: "Director, Fang You is ready and will be here soon!"
He moved closer to the director and whispered, "Boss Jiang just arrived."
The director was startled: "Why is Mr. Jiang here?"
The on-site producer said, "I heard that Miss Jiang had been waiting in the lounge for a long time and got impatient, so she called Mr. Jiang."
As soon as the news came out that Jiang Xunzhou was coming to the set as the main investor, Fang You's agent stopped arguing and asking to find a stylist to change her makeup, and immediately agreed.
The next scene was finally filmed smoothly.
Yu You also met the legendary biggest relative, Jiang Xunzhou's cousin - the heroine Jiang Mingyan.
He doesn't look much like Jiang Xunzhou.
Yu Youduo took a closer look and commented in his mind.
The styling staff hurriedly took Yu You away and took him to the back to change clothes and put on makeup. When they were halfway there, they ran into Jiang Xunzhou who was surrounded by many people.
Jiang Xunzhou seemed to have rushed out from a meeting. He was wearing a classic Blazer suit, shiny leather shoes, and walked with steady steps, followed by a group of people.
He noticed Yu You, stopped, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Why are you here?"
Yu You spotted Jiang Xunzhou from a distance, but there was only one road leading to him, and he couldn't avoid him. He sighed inwardly, feeling unlucky, curved his eyes, and politely greeted him, "Hello, Mr. Jiang, I'm here to film."
Jiang Xunzhou's eyes turned unexpectedly deep when he looked at Yu You.
Although he didn't say a word, the meaning of his eyes was accurately conveyed to Yu You.
——You said you wanted to put those thoughts aside, so why did you still chase me here?
Yu You silently clenched his fingers, but smiled obediently: "Then Mr. Jiang, I'll go get my hair done first."
Jiang Xunzhou responded lazily, and continued walking towards the set with his men.
"Do you know Mr. Jiang?"
The staff member who was responsible for taking Yu You there asked about it.
Yu Youdao: "I am an artist under Xingtian Entertainment."
"oh oh."
Because of the little incident just now, the staff's attitude suddenly changed. They became warm and attentive, and even reminded the makeup artist to treat Yu You well.
Yu You changed into a white shirt and straight western-style school pants, with a clean and refreshing temperament. He is young, so this kind of makeup is particularly suitable for him, giving off a youthful and youthful feeling.
He followed the on-site producer back to the filming location and felt some presumptuous gazes. He subconsciously turned his head and looked directly at Jiang Xunzhou.
Jiang Xunzhou was sitting on a chair, with an assistant wearing silver-rimmed glasses standing next to him.
The assistant was holding documents and talking in a low voice, seemingly reporting on his work.
The man just listened casually, tilting his head slightly, his slender fingers crossed and placed on his knees. On his wrist was a large navy blue metal plate chain watch, which was obviously worth a lot of money.
His long legs, wrapped in grey trousers, were crossed, and his posture was full of arrogance and casualness, yet exuded a kind of nobility, causing many of the staff around him to secretly stare at him.
Even though Yu You caught him peeking at him, the man didn't show any change in expression. He just lowered his eyes and glanced at the boy's collar.
The boy was as thin as a bamboo, with two buttons of his shirt collar undone, revealing a small part of his collarbone as white as snow.
Jiang Xunzhou suddenly turned around and said something lightly to the assistant next to him.
The assistant pushed up his glasses, nodded in agreement, and then walked quickly towards the director in the middle of the set.
Yu You blinked and suddenly had a bad feeling.
The director picked up the loudspeaker and was about to arrange the actors to rehearse the scene. After hearing what the assistant said, his expression became strange, and then he nodded reluctantly.
"That... Yu You, right?"
The director was not familiar with the name, and when he read it out with a loudspeaker, it seemed a bit awkward and hot.
The voice spread throughout the room, and everyone's eyes were focused on the young man.
Next to him is Jiang Mingyan, the actress who plays the female lead, and her eyes are full of curiosity when she looks at Yu You.
The director's expression was numb as he repeated the instructions word for word: "Since this is a high school film, the students should wear uniforms, so please button them up properly."
"Okay, Director."
Yu You kept smiling, squinted his eyes, and buttoned up his shirt obediently, suspecting that Jiang Xunzhou was deliberately looking for trouble.
In this scene, there are several students who serve as background passers-by. Since Jiang Xunzhou is so free, why doesn't he check whether their school uniforms are buttoned properly?
The director took a small loudspeaker and began to direct the play.
Jiang Xunzhou was sitting on a chair, watching with great interest. In front of him stood a person blocked by a shadow.
Fang You said sincerely, "Hello, Mr. Jiang. I've slowed down the filming today, so I'd like to treat everyone to dinner after work tonight to make amends. I hope Mr. Jiang will do me the honor."
Jiang Xunzhou raised his eyes and asked doubtfully, "Who are you?"
