Chapter 347: Rehearsing
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
With the efforts of the three of them, the kitchen was bustling with activity. In the courtyard, Yu Han and Ji Jun were also starting to rehearse.
After these few days of continuous work, Yu Han was so busy that she did not have the time to think about all kinds of things. Hence, the strange feeling that she had that night was completely thrown to the back of her mind.
Now that Yu Han was with Ji Jun, she returned to her previous state and did not show any special feelings. Ji Jun obviously sensed this too. His eyes darkened for a moment before returning to normal.
He was not afraid. He had seen Yu Han’s abnormality that night, which meant that as long as he found an opportunity, he could still pique her guard. In that case, he might as well try a few more times. Anyway, the two of them had time. After all, they still had to film a variety show together later.
Ji Jun pondered over these thoughts inwardly, but he still maintained his usual cold and lazy appearance. He sat lazily on a rattan chair and read his lines calmly under the dim yellow light in the courtyard.
Yu Han, who was opposite him, did not have as many thoughts as him. She only wanted to get her act together as soon as possible and then go back to wash up and rest early. After all, she was still very tired after filming for a few days. Hence, she really needed sufficient sleep to relieve her fatigue.
At this moment, Yu Han still did not know that in order to let the two of them spend more time together, Lin Zi had secretly kidnapped her good assistant, Lang Yu, to make pork jerky.
The two of them went through their lines for the first time. Ji Jun closed the script and tested Yu Han like a teacher. “I believe you’ve already memorized the script. Let’s talk about how you think this scene should be acted.”
Yu Han had indeed considered how to act in this scene before, so she said her thoughts. Ji Jun nodded slightly after hearing it.
It had to be said that with Yu Han’s current age of 18, her comprehension of drama was indeed much better than her peers. This also proved that she was indeed very talented in acting.
Ji Jun thought for a moment. There was basically no problem with her understanding of the characters and the plot. “Then act according to your own thoughts for me to see.”
The two of them had acted together when they got the script for “Midsummer’s Time”, so Yu Han was not unfamiliar with this matter. Hence, she did not show any resistance when she heard Ji Jun’s words. She stood up from her chair, gathered her emotions, and acted out this scene.
Ji Jun helped her by matching her lines.
After one act, Ji Jun frowned. He did not say if it was good or bad and only said, “Think about it again.”
This scene was not difficult for Ji Jun because the main scene was with Yu Han. To Yu Han, the difficult part was that she did not have many lines in this scene.
After Liu Mei hid and saw Gu Su, she knew that she could not avoid this calamity. Hence, she was determined to die. Therefore, when facing Gu Su’s questioning, she thought about how to end herself when Gu Su was not paying attention.
However, at the same time, she could not let Liu Mei appear completely indifferent in the face of Gu Su’s questioning.
As Gu Su was the person she yearned for and liked, she was not unmoved when facing Gu Su even if she had the intention to die. However, she deliberately hid this emotion under her calmness.
Liu Mei wanted to answer Gu Su, but she realized that she had nothing to say. Firstly, she couldn’t tell him about her past life as an assassin. This wasn’t dignified, and Liu Mei didn’t think it was necessary. Secondly, she couldn’t tell her hidden feelings to her enemy, Gu Su.
Hence, in the face of Gu Su’s questioning, she could only choose to remain silent. The difficulty of Yu Han’s scene was how to express the entanglement and complicated emotions in her heart without making any big moves.
In order to let Yu Han see her performance more straightforwardly, Ji Jun took out his cell phone and got Yu Han to act again. Then, he replayed it for her to see.
Ji Jun scrolled through the progress bar of the video. “You’re acting too deliberately here. Gu Su is questioning you and interrogating you at the same time, so your every move is under his surveillance. A look or a body movement from you might reveal a certain signal in his eyes, so you can’t act so obviously..”
