Chapter 796: The Power Of Charm
Translator: Lan_ Editor: Efydatia
Combining
soft rice from Southern China with crabs from the paddy fields was a
real feast. All the older actors rushed towards the delicious food.
Unfortunately, there was only a limited amount of porridge, so only
the main actors could have some.
When
he saw the small bowl in his agent's hands, Du felt sick. The
haughty young man had never spoken to Qin Guan ever since he had
joined the crew. Did this mean that he had been gradually accepted?
His
agent shook his head at the happy guy. He was still a greenhand. The
crew wouldn't notice a single person's lack of politeness. The only
solid foundation an actor needed was talent.
"It's
so delicious! Qin Guan was really kind to share it with us..."
The
agent let out a long sigh. I should give him some lessons in the
future.
Meanwhile,
Qin Guan was eating and murmuring sadly about his food. The porridge
was not enough for him. Plus, Ma Shaohua had taken the best part of
the crab as compensation for that disgusting fish he'd had to eat.
When
he looked at Cong Nianwei though, Qin Guan calmed down. As long as
she was there, they could find more gourmet food in their spare time.
This was important, as he might have to visit that film base many
times in the future. He had to plan ahead for his future work.
As
he thought about that, he couldn't help but look at Cong Nianwei
with love and tenderness. The older actors, who were currently
picking their teeth, realized their secret immediately.
Ma
Shaohua pulled at Qin Guan's robe and pointed to Cong Nianwei. "Do
you like her?"
"She
is my wife."
"What?
You got married?"
"Hush!
She's my girlfriend. We haven't gotten married yet."
"Be
careful then. There are lots of people coming and going around here.
The director has forbidden leaking any photos or information, but she
can't watch everyone."
"Yes,
Master Ma. Don't worry. We are not keeping it a secret."
"So
you are planning on getting married?"
"Of
course."
"So
you made the home run!"
"Of
course I have. She is not pestering me to get married."
The
older actors looked at him sympathetically. That's not what a home
run means, young man. Just forget it. Young people are really
eccentric. Charm can't solve everything nowadays.
Everyone
suddenly was kind to Qin Guan. Handsome guys are not always lucky.
I got a wife easier than him.
Qin
Guan had no idea what they were thinking as he prepared for the next
scene. Meanwhile, as more and more actors joined the crew, the hotels
filled with people.
Wang
suddenly pulled Qin Guan away for a fitting. The two of them walked
between the luggage slowly.
By
then, Qin Guan's character had become the emperor's brother-in-law.
His elder sister was no longer a concubine, but a mighty queen.
His
costume was also better than his previous ones. The light red muslin
that covered his white robe looked absolutely royal.
During
that scene, he gave Prince Liang a hand by taking advantage of his
identity. His sister gave him some jade bracelets to thank him for
his bright idea.
The
clear, shining jade shocked the new members of the crew.
"Wow!
They look so nice. Is there something wrong with my eyes? They look
totally real!"
"They
are. Look at the security personnel over there!" a kind person
explained to Tao Hong. The princess had just joined the crew.
Qin
Guan fixed his eyes on the bracelets without dignity.
Director
Hu zoomed in hard, so only the four bracelets and Qin Guan's face
were left in the frame.
After
a few seconds, Qin Guan smiled and turned his head around to turn
down the reward.
"No,
thanks. I have been studying at home lately. I have been paying no
attention to other affairs."
Despite
his sincere words, his eyes were still fixed on the jewellery. He
craved that fortune. He suddenly gave his sister a flattering smile.
"My sister is the queen now, so I have to be self-disciplined."
He
seemed like an honest, sincere young man.
Tao
Hong learned something about the famous actor through his
performance.
