Li Yuan was looking at Actor Cui intently.
With misty eyes and shy face, she slowly approached as if attracted by a magnet.
The two of them had just had physical contact last night, and he had given his body and soul to her. At this moment, his dependence on and longing for Cui Linyuan had already reached its peak.
The grievances she had felt lying alone in bed that morning came flooding back to her like mushrooms after rain the moment she was hugged by Actor Cui.
It was his first time falling in love, and he just wanted to be with the person he liked all the time.
At this time.
Li Yuan had forgotten that she was filming, and her eyes were filled with such strong love that she couldn't hide it at all.
Even if he has "god-level acting skills", once he loses the acting state, he will be exposed immediately.
The person being held by Prince Rui Chu Feiran now is not the fake courtesan Yun Muyu.
But it was Li Yuan himself.
He was about to continue the performance with Cui Linyuan when he heard a loud "Cut!" from not far away.
And Director Fang's criticism of him.
Feelings of shame and uneasiness instantly hit Li Yuan.
He was stunned for a second, subconsciously stood up, separated from the man's soft and familiar breath, and turned to look in the direction of Fang Zhigang.
Director Fang was looking at the picture in the camera seriously, with an uneasy look on his face.
After a while, he watched the entire footage he had just taken, and then walked towards the two people.
Li Yuan's heart skipped a beat.
"009, what's wrong? Why isn't your 'god-level acting' working anymore?"
009 sighed: [Host, you seemed distracted just now. The system couldn't sense that you were filming, so the skill automatically shut down.]
Li Yuan: "Uh, is this still possible?"
"Actor Cui's performance just now was perfect, there's no problem with it." Fang Zhigang put one hand on his waist and turned his gaze from Cui Linyuan to Li Yuan. "The problem is you, Li Yuan."
His face flushed red as he spoke in a low voice: "Director, please speak."
"You acted very well up until now, but ever since you were pulled over by Mr. Cui and sat on his lap," Fang Zhigang pointed at him and said in a deep voice, "your emotions have been off."
"The way you looked at Mr. Cui was shy and ambiguous, but not nervous and cunning enough."
"You are an assassin now. Facing your enemy who wiped out your family, you should be filled with resentment. Even if you are pretending to be an oiran, you should be flirting with customers, not looking at them with eyes filled with sweetness, as if you are seeing your beloved."
Li Yuan felt like a bucket of cold water was poured over his head. His heart tightened and he nodded awkwardly: "Sorry."
Cui Linyuan, who was sitting behind Li Yuan, smiled dumbly when he saw this. Just as he was about to say something for him, Fang Zhigang glanced at him and his expression became even worse: "Mind your own business!"
Cui Linyuan suppressed his laughter and nodded, sitting aside calmly.
"This sweet state can be brought out later when you act passionately in love with him.
However, in today's scene, you appear gentle and kind on the outside, but harbor murderous intent deep down in your heart.
Do you understand?
After hearing what the director said, Li Yuan was so embarrassed that even her ears turned red.
Nod in silence.
"Hey, that's enough!" Cui Linyuan glanced at Fang Zhigang and said lazily, "The emotions he wants to express in this plot are too complicated. I may not be able to grasp it."
"As a new actor, our teacher Oguri has performed very well."
After saying that, he waved to Zhou Zheng for a bottle of water, opened the bottle cap, and handed it to Li Yuan.
"It's okay, you're great!" Cui Linyuan put his arm around his shoulders and said coaxingly, "Remember Director Fang's request. We promised you the next one, okay?"
"Hmm." Li Yuan held the water bottle and took a small sip.
Taking a deep breath, he began to mentally prepare himself.
Don't be nervous, the mistake just now was caused by the disconnection of "god-level acting skills".
As long as I take the next scene seriously, don't be tempted by Mr. Choi, and don't get distracted, everything should be fine.
Li Yuan cheered up and looked up at Cui Linyuan with an apologetic look.
"Sorry, did I make you NG with me?"
Cui Linyuan curled his lips and soothed him softly, "Little fool, follow me and you'll never have to say sorry!"
"I'm happy to take more photos with you, as many times as you want."
"That won't do." Li Yuan raised his eyes, a little anxious. "You haven't slept all night, you must be very tired. I don't want to disturb your rest."
Actor Cui looked tender and my heart was instantly warmed.
"It's my fault. I didn't see you when you woke up in the morning..." Suddenly seeing Director Fang coming over again, he stopped talking and just raised his hand to help Li Yuan tidy up the loose hair on her forehead.
Li Yuan winked at him, then returned to the camera, indicating that Director Fang was ready.
"The prince is calm and composed, seeing through everything, while the courtesan is calm and gentle, waiting for her chance to strike." In the second take, Fang Zhigang didn't demand too much positioning, giving them room to play appropriately, and only emphasized the importance of controlling emotions.
"Beneath the calm surface of the two people, there must be undercurrents, and there must be a silent battle in their eyes. Do you understand?"
Li Yuan nodded obediently.
Cui Linyuan also made an OK gesture lightly.
The stylist came up and fixed their hair and makeup a bit, then quickly left the scene.
The script supervisor started clapping, "Action!"
Cui Linyuan took the wine glass and his eyes lingered on Li Yuan's face for a moment.
He seemed to have seen through something, but did not say it out loud. He just smiled faintly and said, "I trust Ni'er's craftsmanship." After that, he raised his glass and was about to drink it.
That movement showed the calmness of a king, but also seemed to conceal a calm acceptance of the unknown.
Seeing this, Li Yuan felt mixed emotions, but still maintained a gentle smile on her face.
But behind that smile, there was a deep conspiracy and secret joy. A silent contest quietly unfolded in this glass of drugged wine.
Suddenly, Cui Linyuan stopped raising his glass and uttered a sentence quietly:
"Since the wine is so delicious, Ni'er, can you feed it to me?"
