She Becomes Glamorous After The Engagement Annulment Ⅱ

Chapter 989

Chapter 989: Untitled (8)

In the filming set, the director was talking the two actors through the script.

“The scene that you’re doing now is the first meeting between Zhou Yu and Xiao Qiao. It takes place in the courtyard of the Qiao family residence. Xiao Qiao is playing in the garden and trips over a small rock. Just as she is about to fall, Zhou Yu passes by and catches her in his arms. It’s love at first sight for the both of them.”

Then he pointed at the filming set and said, “Ms. Qiao, later on you’ll have to pretend that you’re looking at the flowers.”

The briefing went on for a long time, and Qiao Lian finally spoke, “Director, where are the flowers?”

Wasn’t she supposed to look at the flowers?

But the set comprised only a blue piece of cloth. There were no flowers to be seen!

Upon hearing this, the director laughed and replied, “We’ll edit the background scenery later. Right now, you’ll just have to use your own imagination.”

Qiao Lian was speechless.

She grimaced and said after a pause, “Well, let me give it a try then.”

The filming started.

With multiple cameras trained on her, Qiao Lian lowered her head, pretending that there was a flower. She reached out and picked it up, then held it up to the tip of her nose for a quick sniff.

“Cut!” The director shouted and continued, “Ms. Qiao, the object that you’re looking at is a flower. What are your eyes looking at exactly? Also, your movements are too stiff!”

Qiao Lian was speechless.

She was no professional actor, how was she going to imagine the scene as he had instructed?

She turned to look at the director and saw that he was glaring at her like he was about to spit fire.

The crew standing around had covered their mouths, trying not to be too obvious that they were laughing.

She could even hear people discussing among themselves:

“Her acting standards are so bad.”

“That’s right, no wonder she’s a female caster. I did wonder why she hadn’t gone into acting, since she’s so pretty.”

“Look at that, quick. Best Actor Shen looks most displeased now.”

“There is nothing Best Actor Shen hates more than female artists with bad acting skills!”

“…”

When Qiao Lian heard these comments, she sneaked a look at Shen Liangchuan.

Indeed, she saw that he was frowning and looking back at her with displeasure.

Qiao Lian twitched her mouth and then bit her lip.

Once more.

“Action!”

At the director’s command, Qiao Lian took a step forward, saw the flowers and her eyes lit up. She was elated—

“Cut!”

She froze and looked up. The director berated her, “Do you know how to act!? The garden is full of flowers but you look like you’ve just found money on the ground… What’s with that?”

“Hahahaha.”

The people standing around weren’t able to contain themselves any longer and burst out laughing.

Qiao Lian frowned.

She had always been a person who did not easily bow to defeat.

Otherwise, she would have never risen from being an idiot noob gamer to the number two player in the gaming world.

So now, being laughed at only provoked this unyielding quality in her. Hence, she gritted her teeth and said, “Once more, Director.”

Then, an expression of approval appeared on the director’s face.

There was no crying and lamenting, but instead a determined attitude. Although she wasn’t any good at acting, it was still evident that she improved with every take.

Yet she really didn’t cut it as an actor.

The director was a perfectionist and couldn’t tolerate this. He finally said, “Why don’t you step away and think about how this scene should be filmed? I’ll move onto someone else’s segment. I can’t hold back the filming’s progress for you.”

Qiao Lian sighed helplessly, hung her head and moved to the side.

Arghhhhh!

This was an empty room. How was it supposed to become a blooming garden in her head?

As she went into a conundrum over this, she heard audible gasps around the room.

Qiao Lian paused and lifted her gaze. She saw Shen Liangchuan suddenly stand up and stride towards her.
