Falling in love with the movie star 5
Tao Yuan quickly got into the role. He sat on the bed with a veil on. This was the first time Shui Junyao was favored by the emperor. He had to seduce Zhao Xuan but not let him discover his identity as a man.
Zhao Xuan staggered in, drunken. Seeing the person sitting on the bed, he couldn't help but smile. He approached the bedside and wanted to rip off the veil, but his hand slowed down. With a hint of anticipation, he slowly removed the veil.
Next is a close-up of Tao Yuan's face. This shot is very important because Shui Junyao has a stunningly beautiful face. If the veil is removed, the gender of the face will be revealed as a man at a glance, and the audience will probably curse.
Xiang Qing stared intently at the monitor. On the screen, after the veil was removed, a face as beautiful as a peony flower was slowly revealed. Her delicate features and noble temperament were enough to captivate a whole country.
Zhao Xuan was stunned, wondering if such a stunning beauty could have come from heaven. This was also Zheng Xuanlin's thought at the moment, which coincided with the character's thoughts.
Zhao Xuan was drunk and already feeling hot all over. Seeing such a beauty, he could no longer control himself. He hugged her in his arms and tried to tear off her clothes.
Shui Junyao leaned against his chest in panic, but soon calmed down. He took the initiative to hug her neck and kissed her hard.
Because of his initiative, Zhao Xuan was stunned. Shui Junyao took the opportunity to break free from his arms. After standing up and turning around, she took off her coat, then pushed Zhao Xuan onto the bed and sat astride him.
The country of Duolan was small, but its people were open-minded. From the queen and princess to the common people and women, everyone was skilled in singing and dancing. Zhao Xuan had long heard of the warm and enthusiastic people of Duolan, so the princess's initiative didn't surprise him.
Shui Junyao couldn't be discovered as a man, so she couldn't take off her clothes. Once she did, she would be completely exposed. He could only take control and use the charm he had learned over the years to make Zhao Xuan lose his mind and not realize that he was a man.
"Cut!" Xiang Qing said into the loudspeaker, "This one's great. Let's shoot two more close-ups of the kiss. Get the camera ready."
The staff were busy running around. Zheng Xuanlin sat up from the bed, and Tao Yuan was still sitting astride his legs. The two of them maintained this position, waiting for the shooting to start.
Zheng Xuanlin squeezed Tao Yuan's waist and said, "Your waist is really thinner than a woman's."
"It's a good thing for women, but not for men. After I finish filming this movie, I want to get stronger." Tao Yuan originally had a poor physique, so he was thin. He hoped to get stronger.
"You're good like this. Although you're thin, you look fleshy and pretty. Unlike those people who just look like a bunch of bones and have no beauty at all."
Tao Yuan held his shoulders, glanced at him and said, "I'll get off first, or your feet will get numb from sitting."
"No need," Zheng Xuanlin held his waist without letting go. "We're going to shoot soon, just sit here."
He didn't let go, so Tao Yuan couldn't struggle, or the atmosphere would become awkward, and it might feel unnatural when filming started. After all, it wasn't someone else's legs he was sitting on, but the legs of his lover from his previous life and future husband in this one.
"Have you ever been kissed?" Zheng Xuanlin asked. "The kind of deep kiss, not the kind you just suddenly kissed."
"...No." Tao Yuan was stunned for a moment, suddenly remembering the first time he and Wei Shicheng made love. He had also asked himself if he knew how to kiss. In his previous life, he had fallen asleep and woken up kissing almost every day. But the original owner had never kissed, and Zheng Xuanlin had filmed many movies, so kissing experience was definitely a given.
"Never kissed before? Are you sure you can take the photo well?" Zheng Xuanlin's tone was questioning, but he was inexplicably happy in his heart. He didn't know what was going on. When he thought about the fact that he had never kissed anyone before, he couldn't help but feel very good.
"I, I should be able to do it." Tao Yuan suddenly thought that he couldn't act very skilled at the beginning, otherwise he would be obviously lying if he said he had no experience in kissing.
"Let's give it a try before the shooting starts," said Zheng Xuanlin.
It wasn't that Zheng Xuanlin was trying to take advantage of him, but the character of Shui Junyao had been practicing her charm skills since she was a child. Even though it was her first kiss with Zhao Xuan and they weren't familiar with each other's habits, it would seem a little awkward, but they would quickly become proficient. Zheng Xuanlin thought that a little awkwardness at first was fine, but if she couldn't become proficient right away, it wouldn't fit the character setting.
Zheng Xuanlin really admired him and thought it would be nice to be friends with him. Moreover, he was ready to guide his acting skills from the very beginning.
"Okay." Tao Yuan looked serious.
"Lower your head." Zheng Xuanlin said.
Tao Yuan lowered his body and bent his head.
Zheng Xuanlin pressed his head, kissed his lips and sucked gently.
Tao Yuan tried to respond, but he seemed very unfamiliar and his body was still a little stiff.
Zheng Xuanlin could only let him go and said, "You really don't know how to do it at all?"
"What, what should I do?" Tao Yuan looked at him in panic and nervousness. Of course he did it on purpose, otherwise how could he prove that he had no kissing experience?
"Get up." Zheng Xuanlin patted him.
Tao Yuan got off his lap and sat aside.
Zheng Xuanlin stood up and walked towards Xiang Qing, who was discussing the shots with the assistant director. He walked over to Xiang Qing and said, "Guide, come here for a moment."
Xiang Qing glanced at him, stood up and walked to the side with him, and said worriedly, "What's wrong? Isn't the filming going well? Young Master, please don't cause trouble for me at this time."
"It seems that if I don't cause some trouble, I'd be sorry for you being so wary of me." Zheng Xuanlin curled his lips. Seeing her look, he couldn't help but argue with her.
"Okay, okay, I'm afraid of you. Master Zheng, do you have any opinions?" Xiang Qing asked helplessly.
Zheng Xuanlin pointed at Tao Yuan with his thumb and said, "Hua Xi doesn't know how to kiss. The scene later might be a little difficult to shoot."
Xiang Qing turned her head sharply to look at Tao Yuan. He was sitting on the bed, his legs folded in his arms, his large eyes flickering, looking extremely uneasy, like a small animal blaming itself for a mistake. His pitiful and frightened look made it hard to blame him, and even made her want to go over and comfort him.
Xiang Qing didn't expect that he had no kissing experience. After all, his performance in all the previous processes was unexpectedly good, and his performance of seducing Zheng Xuanlin was also very good.
She also knew that seductive glances and coy expressions could be achieved through acting. But kissing, without actual experience, was difficult to master on your own. Even for two experienced people, their first kiss would be awkward because they didn't know each other's habits, especially when one of them had absolutely no experience at all.
Just as Xiang Qing was thinking about what to do, Zheng Xuanlin said, "Give us some time. Postpone the shoot for a few minutes and I'll teach him. The shoot went smoothly so far, and we have a lot of extra time. Postponing it for a few minutes shouldn't be a problem."
"You taught him?" Xiang Qing said with an expression of disbelief. "When did you become so kind? You're personally teaching a newbie how to kiss? In the past, you wouldn't teach anyone how to kiss, even if you were beaten to death. Have you been drugged? You don't even know what you're saying?"
"Tsk!" Zheng Xuanlin said impatiently when he saw Xiang Qing's shocked expression, "Didn't you ask me to coach his acting? Well, forget it. I won't teach him. Do whatever you want. I took my kindness for granted. I only brought it up because I was worried about the filming progress."
"Sir, I was wrong!" Seeing that he really didn't intend to care, Xiang Qing immediately grabbed him and apologized. "I misunderstood your kindness. On behalf of the entire crew, thank you for your kindness. Go and teach him quickly. It's just two shots. Once we're done, we can wrap up quickly."
Zheng Xuanlin glanced at her sideways, then walked towards Tao Yuan and asked Tao Yuan to follow him.
He asked his assistant to put a chair in the corner, and Zheng Xuanlin walked over and sat down. People outside could not see this corner, so they could practice without worry.
Tao Yuan stood in front of him, at a loss.
Zheng Xuanlin patted his legs and said, "Sit on it."
Tao Yuan, lost in thought, recalled Wei Shicheng saying the same thing to him. He walked over and sat astride his lap. This would be the same pose they'd be filming later, so practicing in this position was perfectly natural.
Zheng Xuanlin pinched his chin and said, "Open your mouth a little."
Tao Yuan opened his mouth slightly.
Zheng Xuanlin sucked his lips for a while, then put his tongue into his mouth and teased his tongue.
"Stick out your tongue."
Tao Yuan stretched out his pink tongue, and Zheng Xuanlin put his tongue in his mouth, licking and entangled.
After kissing for about two or three minutes, Zheng Xuanlin asked Tao Yuan to try it himself, just like he had done just now.
Zheng Xuanlin was completely emotionless at first, teaching him seriously, and Tao Yuan was also learning seriously. But slowly, Tao Yuan's face became redder and redder, and Zheng Xuanlin's kiss became more and more passionate. In a corner where no one could see, the two of them kissed seriously, and gradually fell in love.
Why is it so soft and tender, why is it so sweet? Zheng Xuanlin savored it as if he were savoring a dessert, slowly and carefully. Gradually, Zheng Xuanlin forgot his original purpose and kissed him as if he were kissing his beloved, kissing him attentively and passionately. He licked his mouth all over, then sucked his tongue into his mouth, teasing and sucking it non-stop.
Tao Yuan's face was getting redder and redder because Zheng Xuanlin's kiss was too passionate, making him aroused. Tao Yuan pretended to study very hard, not wanting him to notice his feelings, because he knew that Zheng Xuanlin was not yet attracted to him, and everything he did now was just the instinct left in his soul.
In the system, a small bud has just grown under the blooming peach blossom. It will have to wait until the bud grows a little bigger before it can prove that he has feelings for her.
Unconsciously, half an hour had passed. Tao Yuan saw that he had no intention of stopping. When he was about to kiss her again, she had to stop him. "I think it's enough. I know what to do."
Zheng Xuanlin came back to his senses and looked at his red and bright lips. Thinking that it was his kiss that made them look even better than before.
"You've learned very well." Zheng Xuanlin praised him. "It seems that you are not only talented in acting, but also in other aspects."
"It's mainly because the senior taught me well." Tao Yuan lowered his head and blushed as he praised him back, thinking to himself, you really think of yourself as a teacher? "Senior, have you ever taught others like this?"
"Not really," Zheng Xuanlin said, "This is my first time teaching someone how to kiss. You are my first student, so you can call me teacher from now on."
The corners of Tao Yuan's mouth twitched. He really thought of himself as a teacher.
"Teacher, we can go shoot now. Everyone is waiting." Tao Yuan said.
"Let's go." Zheng Xuanlin stood up.
The two returned to the bed where they were filming. Xiang Qing came over and asked, "How's your practice going? Are you sure it's okay?"
"It should be no problem," Zheng Xuanlin said. "He's a natural actor and a quick learner."
Xiang Qing glanced at Tao Yuan and saw that his face was still a little red, and his lips looked red as if they were about to bleed. She nodded and said, "Then let's start filming. It's only two shots anyway, so it won't take long. It doesn't matter if it's a little awkward the first time. After all, it's the first time for the two people in the play to kiss, so it's understandable that it feels a little unnatural."
Xiang Qing walked back to the surveillance screen and sat down. Seeing that the two were ready, she shouted into the loudspeaker, "Ready, go!"
Shui Junyao pushed Zhao Xuan down, and leaned over him, stretched out her pink tongue, licked Zhao Xuan's lips gently, and then deftly slipped into his mouth.
………………
Zheng Xuanlin sat in the car, holding his cell phone, looking at the phone number he had exchanged with Tao Yuan.
He couldn't figure out what was wrong with him, so he not only offered to teach a newcomer how to kiss, but also agreed to continue guiding him.
He put down his phone, wiped his face, and looked out the window with his chin propped up. Such abnormal behavior was completely out of character. In other words, it was simply not something he would do.
He wasn't one of those famous perverts in the industry who took advantage of newcomers under the guise of mentoring them. He didn't bother doing such things, nor did he need to. He only needed to beckon, and plenty of stars would come to him.
Zheng Xuanlin's fame and status in the entertainment industry have created a world of turmoil for both male and female celebrities, all eager to connect with him. Anything connected to him, regardless of whether it's true or false, will generate buzz, exposure, and media coverage.
Zheng Xuanlin's reputation in the entertainment industry is that he's distant yet polite to everyone. He's handsome and has a unique temperament, and all the righteous roles he's played have left him with a heroic and towering image in the audience's minds.
But his true character is overbearing and unreasonable, selfish and willful, with a bad temper and bad character. He also used the power of his family to privately deal with many people who had offended him.
The character of Zhao Xuan is exactly like the real him, so Xiang Qing feels that he is acting as himself.
He wasn't a patient person. When he was in a good mood, he might give some pointers on acting to newcomers, but teaching them how to kiss was almost impossible for him. So this time, he took the initiative to offer to teach Tao Yuan how to kiss. Not only did Xiang Qing find it unbelievable, but even he himself couldn't figure out what was wrong with him.
Because the two of them had many kissing scenes, and they were all very important plot points, they had to be performed well. Xiang Qing asked Tao Yuan to find a way to be more proficient in the kissing scenes. According to the plot, even if Shui Junyao was discovered to be a man, she would still be favored by Zhao Xuan, and the two of them would have fun in the palace almost every day.
The plot will not be filmed in great detail, and will soon jump to the time when Shui Junyao is favored, and then another protagonist, Cheng Yi, will appear. Therefore, if he is on the scene, there will not be much time for him to practice kissing.
Tao Yuan asked Zheng Xuanlin to guide him privately, and Zheng Xuanlin agreed without thinking too much. The two even exchanged numbers. When Zheng Xuanlin realized what was going on, he was confused himself, wondering if he really had a crush on him.
But when I think about it, he actually asked me to practice kissing with him. Isn't that just letting himself be taken advantage of? If it were someone else, would he do the same thing?
"Tsk!" Zheng Xuanlin felt a little annoyed, because of his own confusion, and also because he thought that Tao Yuan might also ask someone else to teach him how to kiss.
A week later, the first episode of "Baye" was about to be broadcast. Mr. Wang, the big boss of Rising, personally summoned everyone in the company to wait in the company's largest screening room to watch, and required everyone to be present.
After the show is broadcast, Tao Yuan will be the first person in their company to become famous. President Wang also hopes that after he becomes famous, he can bring more newcomers to become famous and make their company gradually grow stronger, so he attaches great importance to him.
The screening room was already filled with snacks and fruit, and everyone from the company had found their seats. Li Qiao, wearing sunglasses, sat alone on the sofa. She exuded a low pressure, and no one dared to approach. Everyone sat as far away from her as possible.
Of course, Li Qiao didn't want to come; otherwise, she wouldn't be wearing sunglasses indoors, exuding a resentful aura that made people afraid to approach. But President Wang had spoken; everyone had to be present, no excuses allowed. No matter how arrogant she usually was at the company, she didn't want to leave a bad impression on President Wang at this moment, so she had to come.
Liu Yong came in after answering the phone. Mr. Wang looked at him and asked, "Is Hua Xi here?"
"He said he still had to memorize the script, so he couldn't come," said Liu Yong.
Mr. Wang nodded and said, "Filming a weekly drama is quite tiring, so let him memorize the script at home and have a good rest. He must stay in good shape."
"He is very self-conscious in this regard. Apart from memorizing the script and resting, he won't do anything else," said Liu Yong.
Mr. Wang glanced at the time and said, "It's about to go on air. Have someone turn off the lights."
All the lights in the projection room were turned off, leaving only the big screen on.
Li Qiao clenched her fists, feeling indignant. They'd gathered so many people here just for him, and he'd just said he had to memorize the script and wouldn't come. He wasn't even famous yet, and he was already so arrogant. What would happen if he did become famous?
Tao Yuan didn't go to the company. Besides the fact that he didn't want to go, there was another reason, which was that he had an appointment.
Hearing the doorbell, Tao Yuan hurried over to open the door. After opening it, he said to the person outside, "Please come in. I'm sorry to bother you to come here in person."
After Zheng Xuanlin came in, Tao Yuan closed the door and asked nervously, "Would you like something to drink? Coffee or tea?"
"Make me a cup of tea." Zheng Xuanlin didn't feel uncomfortable at all, even though it was his first time here. He walked to the sofa and sat down, as if he were at home. However, with his self-assured personality, he never felt uncomfortable no matter where he went.
Tao Yuan was like a young wife waiting for her husband to come home. She made a cup of tea and placed it in front of him, then sat down beside him and said, "Thank you so much for coming. You are the best senior I have ever met."
Zheng Xuanlin turned around, looking at his innocent face, and thought, if someone like that entered the entertainment industry, wouldn't he be gobbled up alive? He'd agreed to come because he was worried that if he rejected him, he'd find someone else to teach him a lesson. So, he'd skipped even the important party and just come here. A newcomer this clean, innocent, and good-looking would definitely attract a lot of wolves.
"The first episode of "Hegemony" will be broadcast today. Would you like to watch it, senior?" Tao Yuan picked up the remote control and prepared to turn on the TV.
"I have other plans later, so I can only stay for three hours at most," said Zheng Xuanlin.
"Oh, I'm sorry." Tao Yuan quickly put down the remote and said, "A big star like you must have a very busy schedule. I'm so sorry to ask you to teach me. Why don't we just forget about it today? I'll ask my agent to see if anyone else has time to teach me."
Zheng Xuanlin narrowed his eyes at him, thinking, "I'm already here, and you're just saying forget it? You want someone else to teach you?"
"What, what's wrong? Are you angry?" Tao Yuan looked at him with innocent eyes, blinking his eyes, as if he was at a loss.
Zheng Xuanlin looked at him and said, "I agreed to teach you because of this drama. Only if you practice with me can the filming go smoothly. If you go to someone else to practice during the filming of this drama, I will let you finish your role early."
Tao Yuan's eyes widened immediately, and he said nervously, "This is my first play, and it's very important to me. I will definitely practice with you and won't find anyone else to practice with. Please, please let me finish all the scenes."
"Come closer and don't waste time," said Zheng Xuanlin.
Tao Yuan moved and sat next to him.
Zheng Xuanlin held him in his arms, lifted his chin and kissed him. He stuck out his tongue and probed into his sweet mouth, licking his mouth over and over again, teasing his tongue.
Tao Yuan leaned softly in his arms, looking like a well-behaved practitioner, like an ignorant little white rabbit who could do whatever he wanted.
The more he acted like this, the angrier Zheng Xuanlin became, and he kissed him harder and harder.
Tao Yuan groaned and opened his moist eyes. He wanted to protest but didn't dare to resist. He could only look at him with an uncomfortable look.
Zheng Xuanlin immediately softened his heart, slowly reduced his strength, and gradually the kiss became more passionate.
Tao Yuan closed his eyes again and gradually began to enjoy it. Even though this person had no memories of the previous world, the habits and methods of kissing were still so familiar to him. He always liked to kiss deeply, lick his mouth, tease his tongue, and then suck and rub it non-stop.
The more they kissed, the more passionate they became, and they even forgot about time and only felt the beauty of the moment.
Zheng Xuanlin held Tao Yuan's hand, kneading it lightly, sometimes hard. He did this unconsciously. He was a hand control, and Tao Yuan's hand matched his ideal shape, and even the touch was a delight to him.
More than three hours passed, and the two were kissing each other completely immersed in each other's love. Zheng Xuanlin had gone from kneading his hands to reaching into his clothes to caress his skin.
Tao Yuan had difficulty breathing, and his body also reacted. His lips and tongue felt numb, and just kissing was gradually becoming unsatisfying for him.
Zheng Xuanlin's cell phone suddenly rang, and both of them woke up in shock. However, Zheng Xuanlin did not let go of Tao Yuan, but hugged him and answered the call.
It was his agent calling to urge him. He said he would be there right away and then hung up.
Tao Yuan leaned in his arms, her face rosy and her eyes sparkling. It was clearly just a kiss, but it seemed as if it had just happened.
Zheng Xuanlin looked down at the person in his arms, and he was even more reluctant to let go. He just wanted to carry him to the bed and love him hard. But his next trip was very important. If he didn't show up, there would be chaos over there.
Zheng Xuanlin raised his chin and said, "I'll come to you when I'm free. If you still want to keep your role, you'd better not think of finding someone else to practice kissing. Got it?"
Tao Yuan nodded slightly, like a cowardly boy who was bullied and forced by a bully but did not dare to resist.
The two men stood up, and Tao Yuan saw Zheng Xuanlin out.
Zheng Xuanlin stood at the door and stared at his face for a while, feeling like he didn't want to leave just like that.
"Senior, thank you for taking the time to teach me. I will definitely perform well during the filming." Tao Yuan said with a blushing face.
"Yeah." Zheng Xuanlin looked at him one last time, put on his sunglasses and walked out.
After closing the door, Tao Yuan rubbed his face vigorously, then let out a long breath. He thought to himself, I'm really disappointing. I can get pleasure from just a kiss. The torrent of pleasure surged through my body, as if I were making love.
Shedding the mask of innocence and timidity, Tao Yuan walked to the sofa, sat down, and turned on the TV with the remote control. Three hours had passed, and the TV show, which had lasted for dozens of minutes, had long since ended. However, after it was broadcast, it could be watched online immediately.
He deliberately feigned innocence, ignorance, and cowardice, precisely to arouse Zheng Xuanlin's desire to protect him. More contact would accelerate the development of feelings. Zheng Xuanlin's desire had been obvious just now, and he had already sensed it. The small bud in his system had also grown significantly. Indeed, close contact was the best way to enhance feelings.
The next day, Tao Yuan went to the company and everyone who saw him kept staring at him. Some of their eyes were envious, some were jealous, but most of them were full of admiration.
A staff member came over to ask for an autograph, saying that it might be difficult to get one later, so he asked for one now and kept it as a collection.
When Liu Yong saw Tao Yuan, he immediately walked over and said excitedly, "Have you read the comments online? You're going to be famous!"
"I haven't had time to look at it yet." Tao Yuan asked as he walked to the lounge, "What are people saying online?"
"It's all good reviews! Netizens are praising you in all sorts of ways." Liu Yong opened the lounge door for him and waited for him to enter before following him in. "Some say you're beautiful and that you fit the character's alluring personality. Others say your dancing skills are amazing and your eyes are captivating. I've been looking through the comments all night, and aside from a few sour comments from celebrity fans, everyone else is generally giving you positive reviews."
"What did those jealous people say?" He expected those compliments, but what he wanted to know more was what those jealous people said.
"It's those fans of stars who were previously expected to play roles but ultimately didn't get the part. They say that your good looks and dancing skills are useless, because in the end, it all comes down to your acting skills. They say you're a newcomer, not even an acting major, and the further you go in, the more your poor acting skills will be exposed. You can't just rely on your looks to pull off such a role."
"Really?" Tao Yuan smiled. These comments were within his expectations. It seemed that there were no unexpected comments.
"Actually, you don't have to care about those things. Every star has haters. The more exposure you have, the more haters you have. Lack of exposure is the scariest thing. If people are already bashing you now, it means you're going to be famous."
"I understand the logic. You don't need to enlighten me. I won't take those comments to heart. Since I have decided to take this path, I am ready to face all kinds of consequences."
Liu Yong nodded and said, "Now I realize that you were born to be on this path. I watched your performance on TV last night and it was truly amazing. The premiere of this drama set a new record for viewership, and netizens have edited many videos of your dance clips, which have received a lot of views. The general manager has received many calls this morning. There are many activities and endorsements seeking you, but they are all from small and insignificant businesses. They want to hire you at a low price before you become famous, and then take advantage of the opportunity to boost their own reputation after you become famous."
"What did the general manager say?" Tao Yuan turned on the computer and saw the number of fans on his homepage. It was originally in the tens, but it increased a lot overnight. He also took a look at the messages.
"The general manager turned it down, saying you're clearly on your way to becoming a big star. Even if it's not a huge hit, it's definitely going to be a small hit. Instead of accepting activities that lower your profile, it's better to wait a little longer. There's bound to be something better that comes your way."
Tao Yuan thought to himself that the company's leadership was quite understanding. They didn't immediately accept the opportunity offered to him and told him to help the company make money. Their ability to think long-term proved they were still worth collaborating with.
"Boss Wang said something to me last night. He wanted to discuss a formal contract with you."
"Tell Mr. Wang there's no rush to discuss this right now. I'll talk to him later. I know big companies are hard to work for, and I don't like feeling restricted. So I don't want to work for a big company, and I don't want to be constantly controlled and ordered around. My ideal plan is to achieve a win-win situation with Rising. Rising gives me freedom and choice, and I bring more benefits to Rising. That's the win-win situation I want."
Liu Yong looked at the man before him and suddenly felt that he was no longer the same person he had known before. What kind of person could change so drastically overnight? Could it be that all his previous behavior was just a disguise?
Since its premiere, "Hegemony" has received high praise. The visuals of the TV series are as exquisite and gorgeous as those of a movie, which gives the audience a great visual enjoyment and shows that a lot of money has been invested in it. The plot has just the right ups and downs, the story is very compact, and there are almost no unnecessary shots. The suspense at the end also leaves a lot of room for discussion among the audience.
The early plot primarily focuses on Shui Junyao's rise to favor and the character of Zhao Xuan. On the battlefield, Zhao Xuan is a skilled warrior and strategist. However, as emperor, he possesses a violent and volatile personality. He dislikes hearing words that displease him and is often known to execute ministers.
Shui Junyao wanted to take advantage of his personality and lead him onto the path of becoming a tyrant, but before that, he had to find a way to gain Zhao Xuan's favor.
After two episodes, Tao Yuan was going to film a scene where he deliberately exposed his masculinity and asked Zhao Xuan to conceal it for him and keep him in the harem.
Tao Yuan changed his clothes and was waiting for the filming to begin. Because there was still some time, Zheng Xuanlin pulled him to a corner again, and the two hugged each other to practice kissing.
Outside, the two of them hid in a corner where they couldn't be seen, hugging and kissing each other non-stop, like a couple who missed each other and were very hungry. During this period, whenever Zheng Xuanlin was free, he would ask him to practice. In fact, he had already shown that he was quite proficient, but Zheng Xuanlin didn't seem to have any intention of stopping practicing.
Xiang Qing happened to see them walking towards this side just now. Seeing that they had not gone out for a while, she walked over puzzledly to see what they were doing.
Seeing the two of them hugging and kissing, Xiang Qing suddenly felt like she had caught them having an affair. She thought to herself, how dare these two have such audacity? There are so many people outside, and you dare to have an affair here?
Zheng Xuanlin noticed someone next to him. After separating his lips from Tao Yuan, they both turned their heads and looked at Xiang Qing who was stunned.
"You, what are you doing?" Xiang Qing felt a little embarrassed and could only ask even though she knew the answer.
"Didn't you ask him to practice kissing so that he could become proficient earlier?" Zheng Xuanlin looked dignified, as if it was a matter of course, without any distractions.
Xiang Qing looked at Tao Yuan again, and seeing his expression of certainty and his innocent eyes, she didn't know what to say.
Xiang Qing could only clear her throat and say, "As a director, I'm very pleased to see you all working so hard. Then you guys should continue practicing. Come out before filming begins, and don't make me come to you again."
Tao Yuan thought to himself, the atmosphere is gone, how can we continue? Then he looked up at Zheng Xuanlin, asking him with his eyes whether he wanted to continue.
Zheng Xuanlin didn't care about the atmosphere. As soon as Xiang Qing left, he pinched Tao Yuan's chin and kissed him again.
Zheng Xuanlin felt that he seemed a little addicted. He would always miss his sweet taste and the delicious texture of his lips and pink tongue.
The two kissed for a while longer. Tao Yuan withdrew her tongue, which he had been sucking and licking, and separated slightly from him, saying, "It's almost time to start. Let's go over there, or the guide will come looking for us again."
Zheng Xuanlin took a look outside and saw that the staff were almost ready, so he went out with Tao Yuan.
In the previous scene, we had already filmed Zhao Xuan discovering that Shui Junyao was a man, leaving the audience on a suspense at the end. This scene was to pick up where the previous episode left off.
The two of them sat on the bed. Zheng Xuanlin looked at the pair of long, white legs. They looked like a hand-sculpted work of art, perfect to the extreme.
Xiang Qing came over with the script, wanting to talk to them about the play and let them understand the effect she wanted. Seeing Zheng Xuanlin staring at Tao Yuan's legs, she couldn't help but follow his gaze and then stared at it too.
As a married woman, Xiang Qing only likes men like her husband, who are strong and powerful, and has no interest in delicate and weak boys like Tao Yuan. If Zheng Xuanlin is a hand control, then Xiang Qing is a leg control. One of the reasons she chose Tao Yuan for this role is that his legs are so beautiful. She is staring at him now, purely out of admiration, completely different from Zheng Xuanlin's thoughts.
Seeing that both of them were looking at his legs, Tao Yuan felt a little uneasy being stared at by them, and couldn't help but pull the quilt next to him and cover his legs with it.
The artwork in front of them disappeared, and the two came back to their senses at the same time. They pretended nothing had happened and started discussing the script.
"This scene is where Shui Junyao cries and pleads to get Zhao Xuan to trust her. The most important thing for you to do is cry beautifully, not with tears and snot.
