Huayu: Starting from an Unemployed Male Model

Chapter 105 Wei Juncheng and Xiao Ye discuss the script (kneeling to thank their godfathers for their monthly ticket support)

"Where did Wei Jun go again?" Chen Duling complained to Yang Chaoyue, "Why is this male lead and producer so rarely on set?"

"Did you go pick up your best friend?" Yang Chaoyue lay on the rocking chair, eating watermelon.

"My best friend is here, how come I didn't know?" Chen Duling's eyes widened.

"Your best friend in the drama, Kunbu, the actress is here today. The boss went to pick her up." Yang Chaoyue gestured towards the outside, "The boss is here." After saying that, she immediately stood up from the rocking chair.

Chen Duling turned her head and saw Wei Jun chatting and laughing with a woman with pigtails and wearing a JK skirt. The two slowly walked towards the film set.

Is this my best friend from the show? Dressed so cutely and sexily?

Chen Duling stared at the woman in the JK skirt's ample breasts and firm thighs, then looked around and noticed that some of her male colleagues in the crew were also staring at the woman in the JK skirt.

Oh man.

Do all men prefer big breasts?

Chen Duling was very happy to see Wei Jun. She had never seen him so happy when they were together. He even helped him with his luggage.

Why pretend to be a gentleman?

When other actors from the crew came over, he didn't go to pick them up, but when JK girl came, he went to pick her up. Men are always fickle.

"Since you're here, let me introduce you," Wei Jun pointed to Cheng Xiao and introduced her to Chen Duling and the other woman, "This is Cheng Xiao, who plays Huang Yuxuan's best friend, Kunbu, in the drama."

"Hello, I'm Cheng Xiao, and I play the role of Kunbu. Please give me your guidance." Cheng Xiao bowed politely to Chen Duling and the other person.

Chen Duling quickly reached out to stop her. They were all women working together, and she didn't want anyone to bow to her. However, seeing how polite Cheng Xiao was, Chen Duling instantly found her more agreeable: "Hello, I'm Chen Duling, and I play your best friend Huang Yuxuan in the drama."

Yang Chaoyue then greeted them.

Chen Duling noticed the plush cartoon toy hanging from Cheng Xiao's body and immediately became interested: "Your bag is so cute, where did you buy it?"

Yang Chaoyue looked over curiously, and when she saw Cheng Xiao's cartoon bag, she asked where he bought it.

"I have a few more here," Cheng Xiao took the suitcase from Wei Jun, placed it on the ground, unzipped it, rummaged around for a bit, and pulled out two small cartoon handbags. "This is Dumbo and this is Stitch, they're for you."

After saying that, Cheng Xiao stuffed two plush cartoon handbags into their hands.

"Isn't that inappropriate?" Chen Duling looked troubled. She liked the little handbag, but it wasn't right to accept a gift from someone she had just met.

Yang Chaoyue was much more open-minded and accepted the gift directly, thinking that she would give Cheng Xiao a gift next time.

"It's okay, I have several others at home," Cheng Xiao said with a sweet smile, speaking frankly and sincerely. "Aunt Du knows I'm going to play the female lead's best friend, and she wants me to get along well with the female lead. Giving gifts is the beginning of good friendship."

Chen Duling was touched by her sincerity, accepted the gift, and thanked her repeatedly.

Then the girls held hands and started chattering.

Wei Jun was completely ignored, but he was quite happy. It's important for actors in a film crew to get along well and not cause any trouble.

He looked at the three beautiful young women, smiled slightly, and his gaze inadvertently swept over Cheng Xiao's suitcase, his eyes narrowing.

Red, black, pink... oversized bras.

Girls with common topics and interests develop relationships very quickly. Before long, the three of them start taking photos of each other and sharing snacks and skincare products.

Wei Jun arranged for Cheng Xiao to check in that night and helped her carry her luggage to the room.

He was about to leave when Cheng Xiao called him back.

"Brother Wei Jun, I'm scared." Cheng Xiao tugged at Wei Jun's sleeve, her head down. She didn't know why she had become so dependent on Wei Jun after they met again. Perhaps it was because she didn't need to lose weight when she was with him, and she could laugh and joke around.

"The guesthouse is very safe," Wei Jun patted her head. "My room is right across from yours. You can call me if you need anything."

"No, that's not it," Cheng Xiao looked up at Wei Jun, "It's because I haven't acted much, and I was afraid of messing it up. I shouldn't have agreed in the first place."

"It's okay, it's just a few scenes," Wei Jun said, pulling Cheng Xiao's hand to sit on the bed. "If you're really scared, I'll go over the script with you first."

"Okay, thank you, Jun-ge." Cheng Xiao grinned foolishly when she heard that Wei Jun was going to tutor her.

"Okay, you act it out for me first." The script was written by Wei Jun, who knew the story and lines of each character in the play like the back of his hand.

"Okay," Cheng Xiao stood up timidly, looking at Wei Jun's encouraging eyes before mustering the courage to say her lines, "Huang Yuxuan, you haven't mistaken me for someone else, have you? There's no Li Ziwei here."

"Good," Wei Jun immediately clapped. Although the performance was terrible, he still offered encouragement to the newcomer. "Very good, very talented."

"Really?" Cheng Xiao cheered excitedly.

Wei Jun nodded: "Try it this way again, it can be even better."

He told Cheng Xiao to put his hands on his hips and to speak in a more playful tone.

If he were teaching Chen Duling, he wouldn't be so patient in encouraging her; he would only put pressure on her. The greater the pressure, the better Chen Duling would perform. Su Youpeng once said that Chen Duling is the kind of person who "blooms the more the colder it gets," and she would turn pressure into motivation.

Cheng Xiao is the kind of person who needs patience and encouragement. She has some emotional deficiencies, and if she is subjected to high pressure in an unfamiliar area, she will break down.

Cheng Xiao performed it again, and Wei Jun applauded once more.

Wei Jun discovered that Cheng Xiao had a major problem: she couldn't let go. She didn't trust herself to play the role well. When she acted, her body was tense. Normally, people who study dance should be flexible, but what she showed was "stiffness".

She lacks even the most basic sense of conviction that an actor should have. She doesn't trust the character, and when she acts, she feels awkward, as if she's not herself but just acting. This is because she hasn't unleashed her true nature, and when she acts, she inevitably hesitates and is indecisive.

Wei Jun wanted her to unleash her true nature, so he stopped Cheng Xiao's performance and told her his thoughts.

"Then how do we unleash our true nature?" Cheng Xiao asked, her eyes wide.

"Have you ever kept pets?" Unleashing one's true nature begins with playing the role of an animal—this is the first lesson at major art academies.

"Yes," Cheng Xiao counted on his fingers, "I keep lizards, cockroaches, and cats."

Wei Jun's face darkened: "Why are you keeping lizards?"

"I think lizards are a lot like me. They're slow to warm up and seem aloof and unapproachable at first, but they're actually warm-hearted on the inside," Cheng Xiao explained.

"So you keep cockroaches? Do you think they're like you?" Wei Jun found Cheng Xiao's hobby bizarre.

"I raise Dubia roaches to feed my lizards," Cheng Xiao said with a somewhat naive expression.

Wei Jun:

'

"Then try imitating a cat," Wei Jun said, not wanting to dwell on the topic of pet ownership, and directly asked her to play the role of a cat.

Cheng Xiao immediately meowed.

"What kind of cat are you? Standing so high, get down." Wei Jun directly made her put her hands and knees on the floor.

"Is this how it is?" Cheng Xiao lay down directly. Perhaps it was too hot outside just now, and she unconsciously pulled down the chain. Now, from Wei Jun's perspective, he could see a tall, round, white patch of hair facing him.

Wei Jun paused for a moment before speaking: "Take a turn around."

Cheng Xiao obediently twirled around, and the way she twirled in her JK skirt was really sexy.

Wei Jun could see the light pink safety shorts she was wearing underneath, which matched her top and clung tightly to her hips, showcasing her perfect curves.

Wei Jun sat directly on the floor to better observe Cheng Xiao's condition. He placed four items on the floor: a cell phone, shoes, sunglasses, and a cartoon bag.

"Xiao Xiao, as long as I bend my four fingers backward, you have to climb up and rub your face against my hand, okay?" Wei Jun decided to unleash his true nature to the fullest.

Cheng Xiao hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Wei Jun bent his finger backward, making a beckoning gesture. Cheng Xiao immediately climbed forward, placed her fair face in Wei Jun's palm, and gently rubbed it.

"Meow once, then lick again."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Xiao obediently did as instructed.

Wei Jun stretched out his other hand and pointed to the phone in front of him: "Give it to me."

Cheng Xiao immediately picked up the phone and handed it to Wei Jun.

"Wrong," Wei Jun shook his head. "Would a cat pick up a phone and put it in a human's palm? You should reach out and push the phone forward, right in front of the human. If you're wrong, you should be punished."

Wei Jun grabbed Cheng Xiao and slapped her round buttocks.

"Slap!" The feel was unexpectedly good. Even through the safety shorts, it was still the best-feeling one Wei Jun had ever slapped.

He couldn't resist taking another picture.

Cheng Xiao let out a few soft moans, and her skin began to flush.

"Return to the original position and continue."

Cheng Xiao crawled back to her original position, her snow-white skin once again facing Wei Jun.

Wei Jun bent his fingers backward, and Cheng Xiao climbed forward, rubbed against his palm, meowed, and licked it.

Wei Jun pointed to the cartoon bag in front of him, and Cheng Xiao understood, pushing the cartoon bag in front of Wei Jun.

"You're wrong again," Wei Jun shook his head once more. "When a cat pushes something forward, what is its posture? It sticks its butt out."

Wei Jun put his arm around Cheng Xiao's neck, tucked her under his armpit, and patted her a few more times.

Cheng Xiao's body turned even redder, and her eyes began to glaze over.

He was about to let Cheng Xiao continue when there was an unexpected knock at the door.

"Dudu."
