Director Meng said that the investors would be coming today.
Su Wan didn’t really know much about these investors, but she at least had to support Director Meng. She set down her water cup and waited for the makeup artist to finish up quickly.
Su Qin hadn’t arrived yet.
She had been “unwell” and stayed home resting for two days. It was quite normal for a popular actress to be absent from the set, and Director Meng had continued filming the scenes of other actors without a word.
Su Wan didn’t have many scenes left, but Director Meng had insisted on adding more to her role, making her stay on set for a few more days.
When she arrived, Director Meng was instructing the props team to rearrange some items.
Today was the scene between Su Wan and Wen Chenyu. She played the role of an unrequited love interest; the harder she tried, the further away the male lead seemed to be.
…Su Wan deeply suspected that her own mother hadn’t even read the script.
Once today’s scenes were released, they would surely be discussed all over the internet.
Wen Chenyu arrived early at the set, adjusting his cuffs. He lowered his head, his features cold yet handsome, capable of driving countless girls into a frenzy.
Su Wan only remembered how the book described Wen Chenyu.
He was low-key and reserved, rarely appearing in the public eye. In the book, he only appeared briefly in a few chapters, with the filming scenes glossed over; most of it focused on how everyone praised the female lead after filming.
Su Qin had won her first Best Actress award because of this role.
Wen Chenyu noticed her unabashed gaze and looked sharply in her direction. Once he recognized her, his initially cold expression softened significantly, as if the previous sharpness had been an illusion.
He smiled and greeted her softly.
“Good morning.”
“Good morning.”
In this world, Su Wan truly realized just how popular Wen Chenyu was. At a young age, he had already won numerous awards, and after a six-month hiatus, his first project was with an actress like Su Wan, which explained the backlash he received online.
When “Color of the City” was first produced, it might have been due to the fact that Su Wan was married and Wen Chenyu had never done a romantic scene, leading them to write their love as a deep friendship instead, with hardly any physical contact.
Who would have thought that the person involved now held the script for the second female lead?
Su Wan read it again and suddenly her pupils shook.
“Wait… Did this part of the script change?”
The script clearly stated that her character was neglected by her parents and locked at home, after which there was no further development.
Wen Chenyu remained silent for a moment and asked, “You didn’t know there was a second script?”
Su Wan: “Huh?”
“You didn’t think your role was just this little bit, did you?”
Wen Chenyu leaned against the door, smirking as he pointed at the thin script in her hands.
Su Wan wanted to nod, but how could she expose her unprofessionalism? She calmly explained, “It’s nothing, just a small matter.”
Suddenly, a low voice came from above.
“It’s a small matter. I’ll teach you.”
Next up was a scene between the second female lead and the male lead. After being confined, the second female lead yearned even more for the male lead and sneaked out during her grandmother’s birthday celebration, only to run into him.
After confessing her feelings, she unexpectedly offered herself, but the male lead decisively rejected her.
However, the female lead witnessed this scene and misunderstood it, prompting the male lead to finally confess his feelings, which became the catalyst for their relationship to blossom.
Su Wan thought to herself, such a plot involving offering oneself… it’s surprising that the screenwriter could write something like that.
If this were ancient times, a young lady acting like that would be the subject of ridicule for a lifetime.
“…So pitiful.”
“What?”
Su Wan replied, “Xu Ruyu has clearly shown the greatest courage of her time. It’s a pity she’s just the second female lead.” Hence, it was destined to end in vain.
