Chapter 94 - 95: Being Teased
The initial shooting went quite smoothly.
It wasn’t until the final shot where Lin Xiaofan descends from the sky, landing right on Kim Shixun’s bed, their lips brushing against each other.
Chen Yu was already lying on the bed.
With a demonically enchanting look in his eyes, he even posed on the bed before shooting began and beckoned to Xia Yangyang, “Little Missy, I’m waiting for you.”
And then he blew her a kiss.
Everyone watching on set was so smitten they were seeing stars.
Chen Yu was shirtless. This was truly a rare treat for the whole crew.
Chen Yu’s face was so spellbinding it could bring a kingdom to its knees, sometimes androgynous, but his torso was surprisingly exceptional.
Chiseled abs, a total of eight, but not the traditional muscular type, just the right amount.
Suddenly, the director announced, “The stand-in is ready.”
The term “stand-in” surprised everyone.
A winsome young girl emerged from the crowd.
The young girl bore some resemblance to Xia Yangyang and looked somewhat shy.
The director came forward and casually introduced her, “Yangyang, this is your stand-in. She will perform the more challenging and dangerous scenes for kissing.”
The young girl lowered her head and said to Xia Yangyang, “Hello, Sister Yangyang, I’m Shu Ling, your stand-in. Please guide me in the future.”
Xia Yangyang was a bit dazed.
The crew had arranged a stand-in for her without discussing it with her first.
But Xia Yangyang initially didn’t really want to do kissing scenes. Since the crew had already arranged it, she would just go with the flow.
Xia Weiwei crossed her arms and scoffed, “My sister sure is a big shot, using a stand-in for a modern drama. Won’t it seem a bit bad if word gets out?”
In fact, director Yang Jin didn’t like using stand-ins when making movies.
This was Shen Shichuan’s insistence.
Yang Jin suspected that Shen Shichuan might have feelings for this girl.
Otherwise, there was no need to arrange a stand-in in such circumstances.
Yang Jin wasn’t thrilled internally, but Shen Shichuan was the producer after all. He had to give face.
Yang Jin said, “Alright, enough talking. Get in position quickly.”
But Chen Yu was not happy.
He abruptly stood up and declared, “Does anyone think they can have a kiss from me, Chen Yu? If Missy is using a stand-in, then I won’t act.”
Xia Yangyang felt speechless. They were shooting a film, not dating.
It took lots of persuasion from the director and his agent.
Only then did Chen Yu compromise.
The shooting officially began.
Yet Chen Yu deliberately refused to cooperate. A single shot took dozens of attempts and still couldn’t pass.
Xia Yangyang finally realized.
Chen Yu was definitely throwing a tantrum on purpose.
In the end, even Director Yang lost his patience.
With difficulty in wrapping up, Xia Yangyang stepped forward and said, “Let me do it.”
With Xia Yangyang volunteering, Director Yang naturally wouldn’t oppose. All he cared about was the film, and he didn’t bother with Shen Shichuan’s side anymore.
Seeing Xia Yangyang get ready in her costume, finally, Chen Yu smiled, “Little Missy, if you had decided sooner, I wouldn’t have to expend so much energy.”
Xia Yangyang knew he was doing this on purpose.
Xia Yangyang was already hoisted onto the harness.
She was lifted into the air, then slowly descended.
The script calls for Lin Xiaofan’s lips to land neatly on Kim Shixun’s. This was the first time the male and female leads met in a comical scene in the script.
As Xia Yangyang slowly descended and was about to make the contact, Chen Yu proactively lifted his head and deeply kissed Xia Yangyang.
Xia Yangyang was stunned, and Chen Yu chuckled, “Little Missy, you taste really sweet..”
