Ten minutes later, He Jing's makeup was finished.
The makeup artist stuffed the lipstick back into the tube, looked at the girl's face in the mirror, and couldn't help but say with a hint of envy, "We're both women, so why isn't my skin this good?"
Before she met He Jing, she had planned to spend half an hour doing He Jing's makeup, since she needed to carefully conceal any imperfections on her face.
When they actually tried it, they discovered that He Jing's face was completely flawless. She had no freckles, no fine lines, only a face full of collagen, making her young and beautiful.
He Jing smiled and said "thank you," then, seeing that Yan Hanxi hadn't returned, picked up the script and glanced at it again.
She had never acted before, so she was inevitably a little nervous, afraid that she would forget her lines in a little while...
After an unknown amount of time, she was suddenly gently patted on the shoulder. He Jing subconsciously turned around, and her breath caught in her throat.
The boy behind her had changed to a dazzling chestnut hair color, as if he were blessed by the sun and attracted all the splendor. The ends of his hair shimmered with tiny rays of light, making him look like a prince who had stepped out of a comic book.
Under the refraction of light, the dark pupils of her long, narrow phoenix eyes turned a sexy brownish-yellow.
His thin lips curved slightly, his arrogant demeanor tinged with nonchalance. But upon seeing He Jing's reaction, that nonchalance gradually transformed into keen interest. He waved his hand in front of her and asked, "What's wrong?"
He Jing snapped back to reality, looked away, and said calmly, "No, where are the others?"
Damn, no wonder he's the male lead, he's just too good-looking.
Yan Hanxi chuckled softly: "They went out to prepare for filming. They saw you were engrossed in memorizing your lines, so they didn't disturb you."
“…Oh.” He Jing still didn’t dare to look away, afraid that the damned novel law would make her swoon again, so she left the dressing room without even glancing at Yan Hanxi.
Yan Hanxi felt neglected and raised an eyebrow in confusion: Was his hair color really that bad?
……All right.
When the two went out, the filming crew was already all ready.
The first scene of the promotional music video is set in a small grove of trees at school, because groves are the most evocative places. Nowadays, even student recruitment follows a set pattern, and the old trick of a group of students shouting "XX school welcomes you" is no longer fashionable.
After further communication and confirmation among the various teams, the filming of the promotional music video officially began.
As written in the script and as the director instructed, He Jing slowly entered the frame from one end of the woods, walking towards the male lead, Yan Hanxi, who was leaning against a tree with a book covering his face as if taking a midday nap.
A gentle breeze rustled through the leaves as the girl's leather shoes clicked on them. She bent down, preparing to lift the textbook from the boy's face...
Suddenly, the director shouted, "Cut!"
"He Jing, please adjust your expression and show a sweet smile like that of first love."
He Jing: "..."
How could someone who's never been in a relationship have such a sweet, first-love smile?
So this is where the greatest Waterloo in history was.
I was careless.
But He Jing had no choice but to comply, because the director had made the request. After a brief silence, she forced a smile.
Director: "It's too stiff."
He Jing: "..."
He Jing adjusted the corners of her mouth, widening the upward curve.
Director: "It's too fake."
Then, a suppressed laugh rippled through the grove, followed only by a series of serious male voices:
"It's too cold."
"No emotion."
"Start over."
...
He Jing adjusted her smile in front of the mirror more than a dozen times, but each time it was rejected without a second thought.
The boy leaning against the tree finally couldn't help but laugh, shaking his arm and lifting the book off his face. He squinted, his smile wide: "Model student, you've never been in a relationship before, have you?"
He Jing glared at him, embarrassed and angry: "What, you think you're so experienced?"
