Chapter 1232: I’ll Endure!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
At the audition site, Lin Wanwan stated her identity. Under the lead of the receptionist, they took the lift to the eighth floor.
During this time, the receptionist kept sweeping her gaze over Mu Ge’s face shyly.
Mu Ge looked as if he didn’t see it. He didn’t even look at her from the corner of his eye.
They pushed open the door. The director of “The Chronicles of Chang’an” had been waiting for a long while already.
“Ms. Lin.” The director smiled passionately and faintly carried a trace of flattery. “I believe in Ms. Lin’s acting skills and also in your people. There’s actually no need to go through an audition.”
Lin Wanwan was used to fighting it out with her capabilities. Upon hearing this, she smiled faintly. “I feel that it’s more appropriate to follow the process.”
“Sure. I’ll listen to Ms. Lin. Let’s start the audition.”
Mu Ge browsed through the script briefly and his lips twitched.
He really wondered if Lin Wanwan had done this deliberately. She actually found him the role of a weak scholar?
Lin Wanwan gave him a side glance. “Just say it if you want to admit defeat.”
Using the method of provocation?
Mu Ge smiled. “Let’s give it a shot.”
As the roles Lin Wanwan and Mu Ge were auditioning for had the same acting scenes, the director got them to act together in order to save time.
Lin Wanwan played the role of Princess Chang’an, a valiant heroine who was adept in both the pen and the sword. She was betrayed by her men on the battlefield, and an abject scholar had rescued her when she was injured.
The scholar fell in love with her at first sight. As they interacted with each other from morning to night, they eventually fell in love with each other.
After that, Chang’an had to go to the battlefield and the two had to be separated reluctantly. The audition was for this parting scene.
“Let’s start!”
This heroine role was a piece of cake for Lin Wanwan.
“Zi Ce, I’m leaving.”
Mu Ge stood side by side with her. He lost his usual look of vitality and his eyes carried loneliness. “When will you be back?”
“I’m not sure.”
Lin Wanwan’s eyes were complicated. Her struggle and unwillingness turned to firmness. She picked a non-existent flower from the air and put it on Mu Ge’s ear. “When I return, I’ll promise you a huge dowry and welcome you as my husband.”
According to the plot, the Zi Ce that Mu Ge was portraying should be excited and full of love.
However, at this moment, Mu Ge’s expression was a little subtle.
A huge dowry? Did that mean he was going to marry into her family?
It was a plot where the woman was strong and the man was weak. If people who knew him saw this, where would his face end up?
“Cut!”
The director had not yet shouted to stop the filming, but Lin Wanwan did so herself. She glared at Mu Ge. “Don’t be distracted. Again!”
Mu Ge swallowed humiliation and looked at Lin Wanwan affectionately.
I’ll endure!
Both of them looked at each other.
There wasn’t any need to say anything further regarding Lin Wanwan’s looks. Mu Ge’s looks could defeat those of all the other newbies in the entertainment circle in a second. When the two of them looked at each other affectionately, the scene was simply eye-catching.
“Cut!”
Mu Ge was puzzled. “What’s wrong?”
Lin Wanwan frowned and didn’t say in front of outsiders what was wrong with him. She only smiled apologetically to the director. “Director, I don’t think Mu Ge’s suitable for this role. Why don’t you find someone else?”
The director wanted to please Lin Wanwan and couldn’t help himself after listening to these words. “Ms. Lin, I think Mu Ge’s acting is pretty good. Based on his looks, there’s no need to worry about him being unattractive even if he’s just standing there. He’s much better than some other Little Fresh Meat.”
Mu Ge looked up silently. He had actually become a himbo who relied on his looks for a living.
Lin Wanwan thought about it for a while. “I’ll get someone to train him for the next couple of days. Afterward, if the director finds that his acting skills are subpar, feel free to give his role to another person.”
‘”Ok.”
The director felt that Mu Ge’s good-looking face alone was enough to attract a large group of fangirls.
