I Don’t Wanna Be Buddha-like Supporting Actress - C73
“Mom, I’m sorry …” The man’s throat let out a mournful cry.
He was like a child struggling in a trap, troubled by a nightmare.
Xu Wei tried to wake him up. He opened his mouth, but there was only the sound of the needle moving. It was subtle but light.
His hands and feet were firmly tied to the man’s wrist. Not to mention waking him up, he couldn’t even move.
The hand on his shoulder slipped down to his neck, and the watch rested on the man’s cheek. His face gradually relaxed, and he stopped talking. His breathing calmed down.
Xu Wen also let out a sigh of relief.
Then, he thought back to his previous guess. Liang Zhe really did have a bed. In that case, how did this person sleep soundly until dawn during those two days in the hospital?
Out of the corner of his eye, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of the teapot on the bedside table. Fruit tea seemed to be freshly brewed, but he didn’t drink much.
It was unknown if it was just this pot or if it was already finished.
The corner of Xu Wen’s mouth twitched. He didn’t know if this person had lost his temper after he had left that day.
With a big yawn, the diamond wristwatch also wanted to sleep.
Looking at it from the system’s perspective, it was a man and a woman snuggling together, breathing into each other’s faces. It was really a pleasing and warm scene.
At six in the morning, the system announced the end of the punishment. Xu Yi woke up in his bedroom on time. The script was next to him. He stretched his body and easily adapted to the change from a watch to a person.
The System sighed, “Completing all the quests is the meaning of your existence. If you can’t even complete the quests, your existence has no meaning at all.”
Xu Wen did not comment. The reflection in the mirror still showed a beautiful face, though the lips were slightly pale and the expression was haggard. It seemed like she had not rested well.
The System did not say anything else and did not appear again. Xu Wen sneered at the person in the mirror.
He just needed to wash up and change his clothes.
When she came out of the bathroom, Missy sent a message on her cell phone. She had started work, and from today onwards, she would be busy shooting pictures. Xu Yi told her to be careful. She smiled and made a fuss, sending a struggling emoji.
Two poached eggs and a bowl of hot broth noodles were fried for breakfast. He even ate all the broth and water, not leaving even a single onion behind.
Negative work does not mean that life is negative.
Xu Yi was fighting for what he wanted. In the camera, she was the Xu Wen who especially cherished opportunities.
She was still trying to pursue her dream.
She was not completely sure that she could make the System compromise. Therefore, every scene she had to prepare for could be her last.
On the set, Ming Chen felt more and more like she was the one being led away.
In his eyes, the girl in the school uniform in front of him was no longer an online celebrity with a bad reputation. In fact, she was just a soft and fragile high school student who seemed cold and aloof.
She was his first love, and his eyes would involuntarily follow her.
She was the only one with her heart in her mouth, and she cared a lot about the cold words and hurt of others.
After a whole morning of acting, the director patted his shoulder and smiled, “Your performance was so meticulous. No wonder you were able to easily take down that screenplay just like that. Come on, you’re the one who’s going against the movie emperor right now. Don’t embarrass our idol school.”
He stopped drinking, looked at the director, and was about to tell him the truth when the director, hearing his name, patted him on the shoulder and left.
Ming Chen’s eyes were looking for Xu Wen, she was blowing on him with a small electric fan, muttering some incantations. Her expression alternated between arrogance and pain, while the corner of her mouth curled into a cold smile.
Her eyes drooped slightly, and her eyelashes trembled. When she raised her eyes again, the desire to speak was still clear in those eyes, making one’s heart beat faster.
Ming Chen was stunned.
He pressed down on his chest, as if he had really returned to the campus and met his first love.
He felt that he really should find an opportunity to talk to Director Gai.
The reason why he was able to act in that movie was really because of Liang Sheng. If these “idols” really could take over the movie, then it was not him.
He didn’t like to steal other people’s credit. It belonged to whoever it belonged to.
On the other side, Xu Wen’s expression had already changed. His eyebrows were furrowed into a knot, and he looked distressed and conflicted.
Ming Chen drank all the water in the bottle. Perhaps, he could go and learn from Xu Hui to see which acting teacher she had come into contact with recently.
System Em: Daily Quest. It is 1/0 for the male lead to receive the love. (Published)
Xu Yi: I can’t hear you, I don’t want to go, it has nothing to do with me!
System: Before 12 PM. If you do not complete the quest, the penalty will be immediately activated.
Xu Yi: Heh heh, who cares?
The strike, the most important thing is what, the conviction is not firm.
Whether it’s a multi-person strike that’s easy to counter or a minority strike that’s weak, all the reasons for the failure are the lack of conviction.
This sort of thing was like buying something to haggle the price. The one who couldn’t bear it the most was the one who had to give in first.
From a personal experience of a senior illegal child labourer who had spent three days sitting cross-legged in front of a bad boss’s shop in order to protect his or her legitimate rights and interests.
The System escaped again.
The director called for work to begin, and Xu gave the fan to Ding Panpan, immediately entering the filming area.
All the actors were ready, and with the machine on, this might still be the last time she stood in front of the camera.
The filming efficiency became higher and higher, the director finally no longer had to hold on.
At seven in the afternoon, he finished filming a sunset scene and finished his work on time.
When Xu Wen returned home, he was still eating, bathing, and reading the script.
He completely ignored the system’s warning beeps that sounded again and again.
Xu Ru called her at noon and told her: “When you have time, come to the hospital. If you don’t have time, don’t force me.”
Xu Yi carefully evaluated for a moment. He felt that there was no irony in his words. The phone call would pass as soon as possible.
Xu Ruo Rou was not sure if she was satisfied or not. She hung up the phone in a hurry. Sure enough, she didn’t bother her after that.
Xu Yi was enjoying the peace and quiet.
She had already read the script several times, but every time she read it, she seemed to have new insights. She practiced her expression management in the mirror for an hour.
At eleven o’clock at night, he would lie down on his bed.
The warning sound was like a chain call for life, ringing again and again.
She still ignored him.
23: 59: 59 p.m. The System’s voice rang in his ears:
Daily mission: To send love to the male lead is 1/0 (incomplete), punishment begins.
Xu Wei opened his eyes and went to look for the mirror hanging from the ceiling.
He did not find a mirror. He only saw a single chandelier. It was bright and resplendent, but its cost was obviously not as much as the one he used to see.
While Xu Yi was in a daze, he accidentally met a woman’s eyes.
