Chapter 157: Chapter 157: The Script Isn’t Written Like This!

Jiang Mian’s script rustled slightly beneath the air conditioning as she lifted her eyes to the man approaching her, her legs unconsciously drawing together.

The man’s arrival was quite imposing.

While Jiang Mian was lost in her thoughts, Fu Sichen had already snatched the script from her embrace.

His handsome fingers lightly flipped through the pages.

Inside, the character played by Wei Zhouchen was a student, yet he resolutely devoted himself to the service of his motherland.

And then he met Ye Manyue, falling head over heels in love with this dancer "sister" at first sight.

To improve the cohesion of their subsequent scenes, Ming Lang requested that the actors’ first scenes together be the most emotionally intense, including the lead characters’ first kiss scene and Wei Zhouchen’s confession to her.

"Ye Manyue, would you be with me?"

Fu Sichen was still in his student costume, his speech tinged with eagerness and trepidation, his dark eyes brimming with rebellious tears.

!!!

Jiang Mian was startled, so absorbed by the script she had been rehearsing for so long that she instinctively got into character.

She curled a corner of her shawl over her shoulder, her red lips slightly upturned, radiantly unrestrained as she proactively leaned against the man’s chest, her beautiful nails lightly tracing down, "Chen Zihao, your status isn’t suitable for me."

Fu Sichen’s gaze lingered on the woman pressing forward, his Adam’s apple bobbing as he uttered the next line, "You... don’t treat yourself like this."

The man’s voice held a hint of embarrassment, and he took two steps back, gently pushing the woman from his embrace.

"Oh~ How come? All about business, Young Master Chen thinks I’m debasing myself?"

Jiang Mian’s eyes slightly narrowed, her makeup-free beauty still enough to lure one in with those peach blossom eyes.

Fu Sichen hooked her slender waist in one swift motion, leaning forward to whisper, "Then show it."

???!!!

...

No, this isn’t right!!

This isn’t how the script goes!!

Where does it say that in the script!!!

*

"Jiang Mian! Not bad at all!! That’s exactly the right feel!"

"Yes, yes, yes, cut! This take is good!"

"Fantastic! Ye Manyue is just like this!!"

...

Ming Lang, watching Jiang Mian smoothly ace her scenes, couldn’t contain his excitement on set.

He lavished praise on Jiang Mian loud enough for the entire crew to hear.

Others might not know, but Jiang Mian was well aware.

She had to credit half the success to that scoundrel.

Although they had only exchanged a couple of lines in their scene that day, what followed was indescribable.

"Sister Jiang Mian, your expression is really top-notch, if it weren’t for you getting me into character so quickly, I would be worried I couldn’t make it."

Their first attempt at shooting the scene had earned them nothing but scathing criticism.

Wei Zhouchen was left with an aftermath, quickly taking advantage of a three-day break to brush up on his acting skills and even seeking one-on-one lessons from a teacher.

He hadn’t expected it to go so smoothly today.

"I already saw it on Weibo, your rent-a-boyfriend for a day service, do you have one for girlfriends? I’ll rent one to get the feeling of love the next time I shoot a romance drama."

The result was immediately noticeable.

Just as Jiang Mian was about to say something, Ming Lang strode forward with a big smile, his eyes narrowing down to lines, "Jiang Mian, ah, a promising young talent, one who is willing to learn, your rent-a-boyfriend service is quite high-level now, huh?"

"There’s such a thing? I must be out of the loop; do you have a contact you could recommend to me? One day, I should let those who lack a romantic life give it a try."

Jiang Mian responded with a smile and a wave of her hand, feigning nonchalance, "Director Ming, it’s not as incredible as you say, can’t it just be due to my diligent study? That’s my friend’s business, it’s not officially open yet."
