Chapter 87: Depends More on Acting Skills

Translator: Zayn_

When Yu Muhuai arrived, Xu Mingrui showed him a portion of the script.

After the audition, the two of them chatted happily.

When someone called Xu Mingrui away, Su Rong immediately reminded Yu Muhuai, “You said you wanted to come over and take a look. Now that you’ve seen it, you have to refuse to play this role later, okay?”

“I just checked. This drama only has an investment of 10 million yuan, and it’s a Xianxia drama. Don’t let yourself not get paid!”

Halfway through her sentence, Su Rong suddenly widened her eyes and blurted out,”F*ck!”

Yu Muhuai followed her gaze.

When his gaze landed on Song Qingyou, who was coming out of the dressing room, he was stunned.

Under the bright light, her jade-like knuckles opened the curtain, and a figure in a white wide-sleeved dress slowly walked out. When she raised her hand and bent over, one could still see the ends of her hair tied with red ribbons.

The young girl’s eyebrows were as beautiful as a painting, and her eyes were cold, but they were exceptionally moving.

The golden embroidery on the hem of her dress also shone brightly.

No one would doubt her ability to act as a goddess from the nine heavens.

Thump- Thump-

Yu Muhuai felt his heart beating fast.

He only came back to his senses when he heard everyone’s exclamations.

“I’m ready to take this role.” Yu Muhuai suddenly said.

Su Rong was still in a daze, and her tone was not as serious as before.

“Why are you taking this… The company will obviously arrange better resources for you.”

“Sister Su, do you think Song Qingyou is pretty?” Yu Muhuai asked in a low voice.

“Yes!” Su Rong replied without hesitation. “I’ve been a manager for so long, but this is the first time I’ve seen someone with such a good foundation!”

Moreover, the production team was quite attentive.

“So this drama might be popular.”

“Song Qingyou’s the only one who’s not afraid of fire. You…” Su Rong snapped back to reality.

Before she could finish, Yu Muhuai had already walked over to Song Qingyou.

“Have you decided?” Xu Mingrui asked him.

Yu Muhuai nodded. “The moment I saw Qingyou come out, 1 decided to take the role. She really fits the description of the female lead.”

“I think so too.”

Xu Mingrui nodded in agreement. “Teacher Qing Meng is still the best. If it was the script I wrote before, I’m afraid it wouldn’t be worthy at all!”

The two of them didn’t say much before the stage supervisor sent the contract over to Xu Mingrui.

Su Rong could only watch as Yu Muhuai signed it.

After that, she resigned herself to her fate and said, “I’ll arrange for publicity as soon as possible. Since you’ve already signed the contract, we can only hope that this drama will become popular.”

Although she said that, Su Rong was not confident at all.

This was because the biggest problem with this drama was not only the lack of investment, but also the director and actors. It was simply a disastrous start.

With Song Qingyou’s beauty in front of them, the makeup of the others behind them wasn’t as stunning.

On the other hand, Yu Muhuai’s role as Tianxuan Immortal Lord was eye-catching.

Many people in the production team muttered that Yu Muhuai looked much better than Zhou Jin.

As the male lead, Zhou Jin was dissatisfied. He went to Xu Mingrui and asked him to adjust Yu Muhuai’s makeup.

“Director Xu, in a drama, how can a supporting role outshine the main lead…”

Zhou Jin only dared to raise his opinion because he saw that Xu Mingrui was still young.

Xu Mingrui looked at the two of them, but before he could say anything, Song Qingyou spoke first, “Sometimes, whether you look good or not depends less on your appearance and more on your acting skills.”

“There’s no problem with Yu Muhuai’s makeup.”

The main reason was that Yu Muhuai was better looking than Zhou Jin. If Zhou Jin really said so, wouldn’t he deliberately make Yu Muhuai look bad?

Yu Muhuai was here to help, so Song Qingyou had no reason to let him suffer.

And she wasn’t lying.

People with good acting skills could often make people fall into the role and feel the charm of the character. At that time, appearance played a much smaller role.

Zhou Jin didn’t refute Song Qingyou, only staring at Xu Mingrui.

“What Sister said makes sense.” Xu Mingrui nodded. “The makeup looks good like this. Go and prepare for the photoshoot.”

He didn’t just agree to whatever Song Qingyou said, but he had always thought that way.

But in Zhou Jin’s eyes, it was clear that Xu Mingrui was a director without any authority, and Song Qingyou had the final say in the production team.

His eyes flickered. “I understand.”

The actors were all present and the set was set up. Xu Mingrui did not delay and started filming on the same day.

Because it was a Xianxia drama, most of the scenes would be shot in front of the indoor green screen. The scenes were all post-processed.

Under such circumstances, it was even more difficult for actors to get into character.

Su Rong had only planned to leave her assistant here and was about to leave.

Seeing the crew start filming so soon, she was curious if Song Qingyou would still act like a block of wood like before, so she decided to watch for a while.

Song Qingyou was still reading the script.

She was going to play the role of Goddess Xihe in the drama.

Xihe was a goddess with an extraordinary appearance and powerful magic. She was a high-ranking goddess in the six realms.

All the immortals and gods thought that Xihe and the Supreme Lord Taichu were a couple.

Xihe thought so too.

At the beginning of the plot, it was Taichu who took Xihe’s heart and soul, and Xihe went back in time.

In the first scene, everyone was very serious.

On a warm early day, the immortal music was mellow, and the world was peaceful.

Xihe sat in the palace above the Nine Heavens.

After a while, the maid rushed in and broke the silence.

“Your Highness, the Supreme Lord just took Linglong to the 33rd Heaven. I heard that he wanted to find the Red Karmic Fire Lotus to send her off.”

Xihe opened her eyes. She looked sad and complicated, but she quickly hid her expression.

“She won’t live for long. Don’t worry about her.”

“Yes.”

Before the maid finished her sentence, the Supreme Lord, who was supposed to be in the 33rd Heaven, suddenly appeared.

He was also wearing a white robe with golden patterns. His face was gentle, but his eyes were as cold as frost.

Xihe stood up in a hurry. It was obvious that she was very happy to see Taichu, but she didn’t show any joy on her face.

“How could Supreme Lord bear to come here?”

Xihe was proud by nature. No matter how much she liked Taichu, she couldn’t take the initiative to please him.

“Empres-… I’m here to borrow something from you.” Taichu walked forward.

“What?” Xihe sneered. “In order to please Fairy Linglong, Your Honor almost emptied my palace. What do you want to borrow this time?”

Taichu’s voice was gentle, “Please… Lend me your blood!”

“My blood? That’s impossible!” Xihe waved her sleeves and said angrily, “Taichu, I’ve given you everything you want. Now, you’re even coveting my blood. You want me dead!”

Taichu looked pitiful. “Linglong is going to die to save the world. She can’t live without your blood.”

“So? So you want to exchange my life for hers?”

Xihe was so angry that she laughed. “Hahahaha, if she really saved the world, I would give my life to her. However, the world is in chaos because of her, and the Devil Tribe was released by her. In the end, she wants me to bear the consequences?”

“Taichu, you’re so cruel!”

Xihe gritted her teeth.

Taichu didn’t move. He controlled her immediately, his face still calm. “Xihe, Linglong can’t die.”

Seeing the white-robed man approaching, Xihe bit her lips, and the scarlet blood matched her suddenly red eyes.

She suddenly laughed.

“I won’t let you get what you want!”

“Taichu, I will definitely make you pay!”

She clutched her chest as if she wanted to gouge out her heart..
