Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement-Chapter 512: CEO’s Penance in the Pursuit of His Wife
Lin Yue isn’t an actress, and naturally doesn’t understand the nuances of acting.
However, Wan Tianning’s sharp questioning startled Lin Mimi, leaving her dazed and forgetting to cry.
The director yelled "Cut."
Lin Mimi’s expression remained vacant, still not reacting from the shock.
Lin Yue knew then that Wan Tianning’s acting was truly remarkable.
She almost unconsciously curled her lips into a proud and smug smile.
"Lin Mimi is really pitiful; she was scared silly just now!" Wenfeng shook his head with a sigh.
Ye Shao said, "That’s her own fault for not sticking with the scene. That scene was supposed to be acted that way, if she could keep up, she should have cried immediately, instead of showing a dumbfounded expression."
"It’s really not easy being an actor," Wenfeng shook his head, thanking his luck for not being one.
"I really didn’t expect Wan Tianning’s acting to be this good. I’m playing the lead opposite her, I can’t afford to lose sync with her, no, I need to study closely." Ye Shao propped his chin and continued to watch intently.
Meanwhile, Lin Mimi was gently advised by the director to stick with the scene and not just freeze there.
Lin Mimi bit her lip in anger.
She’s been filming for a long time, although it’s not her first time being told she couldn’t keep up with a scene.
But previously, her co-actors were all seasoned veterans, which was why sometimes she faltered.
What is Wan Tianning anyway, she hasn’t even been in the industry as long as her.
Yet now, she’s embarrassed herself in front of her, unable to keep up with her scene, truly infuriating and humiliating.
And Wan Tianning went even further. As soon as the director walked away, she immediately sneered at her, "I really didn’t expect that Sister Mier’s acting is this bad, quite different from the rumors. Indeed, many things can’t be trusted by rumors alone; you have to experience them yourself."
"Why are you gloating? I was just distracted just now, just you wait." Lin Mimi retaliated.
"Alright, I’ll wait and see." Wan Tianning raised her eyebrows.
As the director called for action, the two ran through the scene again. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
"Hua Rui, what right do you have to question me? What the Hua Family owes me, it’ll never be paid back in this lifetime. You ask why I’ve become like this, fine, I’ll tell you, it’s all because of your wonderful father."
Wan Tianning questioned fiercely once more.
Although the lines were the same, this time her tone was distinctly different from before.
Lin Mimi didn’t expect that for the same scene and lines, she could exhibit two different states.
Moreover, both states were fitting without any discordance.
Lin Mimi was extremely angry!
But this time, with experience, she quickly adjusted her own state, showing a pitiful expression.
She began to cry with tears flowing down like a flower drenched in rain.
Lin Yue and Wenfeng, as outsiders, were stunned.
To cry on cue, it’s truly a skillful performance.
However, Ye Shao shook his head and said, "This time Lin Mimi still didn’t keep up with the scene; that’s not how she should cry. Wan Tianning used such a performance technique, she shouldn’t cry like this."
Sure enough, Lin Mimi was again halted by the director with "Cut."
After approaching, the director again lectured Lin Mimi.
Lin Mimi was extremely embarrassed and angry!
Once the director walked away, she glared at Wan Tianning in resentment.
Wan Tianning smiled smugly, "It’s your own fault for being dull and missing the scene, why glare at me?"
"Wan Tianning, you’re doing it on purpose."
"Yes, I’m doing it on purpose. So what? You want to complain to the director? Tell them you can’t keep up with the scenes, that your acting is terrible?"
Lin Mimi was almost furious to death, yet could do nothing about Wan Tianning.
The two filmed several more times, finally getting through on the fifth take.
Wan Tianning completely overwhelmed Lin Mimi, causing Lin Mimi to almost cough up blood from anger.
"Mr. Lin, take some rest first. We’ll be filming Mr. Wan’s and Miss Ye’s scenes in the afternoon, so adjust your state well."
Although the director called multiple NGs on Lin Mimi, after all, she was recommended by the investors.
So, the director still came over to comfort her.
Lin Mimi immediately showed her pitiful expression and apologized to the director, "Sorry director, I’m not in a good state today and have disrupted everyone’s work. But I’ll quickly adjust and won’t let the director down."
"Yes, I still recognize your acting skills, rest well and adjust properly, and think thoroughly about the next scene. Wan Tianning’s acting is indeed very good, but you’re not bad either; you shouldn’t keep missing scenes, it’ll affect your reputation."
"Speaking of the next scene, I remembered a scene I’ve seen before, a confrontation by the water with two leading ladies. I think that scene is quite good, and I’ve researched it well earlier. Coincidentally, today’s weather is perfect for filming that scene, does the director agree?" Lin Mimi suggested with a smile.
"I know the scene you’re talking about, I’ll discuss it with others." The director said.
Lin Mimi nodded, watching the director leave.
Once the director was gone, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in her eyes.
Wan Tianning, let’s see how long you can stay smug.
That scene features a plot necessity, where she has to slap her.
Although usually these slaps are done with camera angles.
But, who knows, she might forget to use angles due to her poor state today.
By accident hitting her, there shouldn’t be any problem!
"Next up is the scene between me and Wan Tianning. Watch closely, this is how you steadily keep up with the scene." Ye Shao said with a smile to Lin Yue.
After speaking, he hurried to make up and change clothes.
The two played a couple, sweetly falling in love.
Wan Tianning had no intention to make things difficult for Ye Shao, so their scenes went smoothly, those unaware might think they were a real couple.
Lin Yue watched from the side, her face darkening.
Watching his... former woman, and his brother fall in love, this sour feeling is truly unbearable for most.
So with a frown, he immediately left, out of sight, out of mind.
By evening, someone else came to visit the set.
This time several taxis arrived, causing excitement throughout the crew.
"What kind of dumb luck is this, one big boss hasn’t left, and another big boss arrives, lucky for us crew members."
The staff eagerly ran outside.
Wenfeng also went to find Lin Yue and once he found him, anxiously said, "Lu Jingnian came to visit the set, visiting Wan Tianning."
Lin Yue’s face sank, no wonder Wan Tianning wanted him to stay.
Turns out she was intentionally flaunting her affections for him to see.
He immediately got up and strode outside.
Unexpectedly, he bumped into Ye Shao as he walked out.
"I advise you not to go outside, seeing them will just upset you."
"Seeing you upsets me too." Lin Yue said with a dark face.
Ye Shao froze, "Why be upset seeing me? I haven’t stolen your girl."
But soon, he thought of the afternoon’s filming, and with a smile said, "You’re not jealous even of our filming, are you? Then you’ll be perpetually jealous. Wan Tianning is an actress, she’ll often film, not to mention sweet romantic scenes like these, we even have kissing scenes, will you be jealous then too?"
"What? Kissing scenes too?" Lin Yue exclaimed.
