Shock! I became the protagonist of a female-oriented novel.

Because her role was small, the camera wouldn't always be on her. Shen Teng usually turned a blind eye to it for the sake of film and labor costs. But when she was standing right in front of Yu Ci, she always felt something was off.

I really want to offer my advice, but I feel I lack a proper stance.

Under these circumstances, Yu Ci suddenly came to her with the script, seeking her advice.

"Sister Qiu, although this is very presumptuous, but..."

"May I ask if you have some free time recently?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"I..." Yu Ci said a few words, then secretly glanced at Gu Qiushui, and then clenched the script tightly. "I don't understand the character of Qingqing enough. I'm not from a professional acting background, so there are some parts I don't understand."

"So I wanted to ask you, is it alright if I don't know?"

Gu Qiushui's original answer should have been no.

Because she had already seen through Yu Ci's future prospects. With acting skills like that, he could at most become a third female lead in the entertainment industry, or at most a second female lead.

With such an appearance, which is cute, investors wouldn't be interested. Besides, she doesn't seem like someone who would go all out.

This personality, this... In short, this is someone who has absolutely no potential to become popular, in other words, a useless person.

Useless people want to take up my precious time.

only--

"Sure, go ahead and ask."

Yu raised his head, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes.

Gu Qiushui felt a pang in her heart, and then she kept telling herself this over and over again!

Brown sugar ginger tea! Brown sugar ginger tea! Brown sugar ginger tea!

It's just repaying a debt of gratitude! It's just repaying a debt of gratitude! It's just repaying a debt of

Pay back the favor! Pay back the favor! Pay back the favor!

Chapter Fifty-One: Forcibly Increasing the Bond! Forced!

Asking questions about the script is a skill.

Don't ask questions that are too simple, or it will be easy for others to realize that you have ulterior motives.

You can't ask overly complicated questions all at once, because it's impossible to have that many complicated questions. If the previous person asked a complicated question, it would be unreasonable to ask a simple one next.

Therefore, Yu Ci has always proceeded step by step.

From ordinary plots to emotional plots to one-act scenes that require her to express various 'sensitive' emotions, she asked questions little by little.

such as:

"Sister Qiu, what kind of look should Qingqing give when she sees Jiang Rong with another man?"

"Let me see."

"Sister Qiu, there's a scene where Qingqing goes shopping with Jiang Rong. They say Qingqing should appear both awkward and happy. How should she portray that?"

"You can do it like me."

"Sister Qiu, and this one too. Jiang Rong very carefully obtained Qingqing's indenture from the nightclub owner and gave it to Qingqing. Qingqing was very moved and suddenly hugged Jiang Rong. How should she hug her?"

"You can try it with me first, give me a hug, and I'll guide you."

"Then... I'll hug you."

Once, cut.

"Let's get even more excited."

Second time, continue cutting.

"I'm so excited. Remember, this excitement is accompanied by gratitude."

Three times, cut.

"Don't hug me so tightly."

"Is it not allowed?"

"..."

"Okay, let's add some more gestures, some gestures that show gratitude."

Rub against her chest.

"you--"

"Isn't this okay?"

"Although Qingqing grew up in a nightclub, she is still innocent and a little girl. Your way of expressing gratitude is barely acceptable."

"it is good."

Then rub it a couple more times.

How do people get along and develop feelings for each other?

That's just how they make trouble out of nothing.

……

"senior."

More than a month has passed, and I have called Gu Qiushui by her name many times. Her nickname has evolved from "Sister Qiu" to a more affectionate term for a senior.

"What's wrong?" Gu Qiushui turned her head and glanced at her. "Is there something you don't understand?"

Yu Ci hummed in agreement, holding the script, "Just this one scene."

"Oh." Gu Qiushui took the script as usual, but as soon as she flipped it over, she heard someone next to her say, "The last scene has a very strong emotional climax, and I'm having trouble expressing it."

The sound of pages turning suddenly stopped. Gu Qiushui paused. "The last scene?"

"Ah, yes."

"You're... in your final scene?"

As if he hadn't seen the expression on Gu Qiushui's face, Yu Ci smiled and said, "She's only the third female lead, so she doesn't have many scenes. Filming will probably wrap up in four or five days."

Filming wrapped?

……

Gu Qiushui's fingers, gripping the script, turned slightly red.

"Senior, look here. Jiang Rong was very kind to Qingqing from the beginning to the end of the drama, so it's here..."

"Someone tried to assassinate Jiang Rong. Although Qingqing is very timid, she pushed Jiang Rong, who was conducting the investigation, away without hesitation and took the bullet for her."

"To be honest, I've never acted out death before, so I don't know what it looks like to be shot and fall to the ground. Although I've watched some videos online, I still feel like I can't quite learn how to do it..."

“This scene needs a location.” Gu Qiushui glanced around; everyone was filming in full swing. “There’s no location right now.”

"Well, I checked today's shooting schedule. If everything goes smoothly, you'll be off work at 5 PM. We don't live far apart, so can I go straight to your place after get off work?"

This request is the most outrageous one I've made this month.

She thought Gu Qiushui would need to think about it for a while, but to her surprise, she agreed instantly, "Okay, but the time I finish filming this afternoon might not be so precise. I'll have my assistant open the door for you first, and you can wait for me there, okay?"

"Okay." Yu Ci smiled.

After that, Gu Qiushui's scenes began to be filmed. Yu Ci didn't stay any longer to get in the way and went straight back to his room to practice his acting skills.

I don't know why, but lately I feel like I'm finding it harder and harder to resist Gu's face.

Meow.

I always feel that as I get closer to this person step by step, I am also inexplicably being drawn closer to him step by step.

Shaking his head, Yu Ci decided to look at the script and calm down.

Half an hour later.

Yu Ci put down his phone because his eyes hurt a little.

On the lit screen of the phone was Gu Qiushui's stunningly beautiful face.

This... is clearly not my ideal type.

but.

He's so cool and commanding.

When teaching people how to act, it really feels like I'm trying to turn them gay.

Hmm? Bend it?

Strange and unusual adjectives.

In the blink of an eye, the sun had already set.

Yu changed into the blue plaid skirt she had prepared beforehand, put on a pair of simple high-heeled slippers, and went upstairs.

The assistant, Xiaoqing, opened the door.

"Miss Yu."

"Miss Xiaoqing."

"..."

This was the first time Xiaoqing had ever been called "Miss," and she felt so embarrassed she could fly.

"You can just call me Xiaoqing." She scratched her head.

Yu Ci tilted his head and said, "Then you can just call me Yu Ci from now on, there's no need to add 'Miss' to it."

"Okay."

"The kissing scene outside is stuck, so Sister Gu asked me to come back and greet you first. Today's filming is expected to finish at six o'clock..." Xiaoqing wondered if she was seeing things, but she felt that the girl in front of her looked a little off when she spoke.

Yu Ci's mood did indeed sour for a moment.

Was the kissing scene canceled?
