Chapter 1432: He should already be immune to it!
After hanging up the call, Du Lingyang went to the washroom to wash his face. He looked up at his reddened eyes in the mirror—his bloodshot eyes…
Over the past two years, ever since Jiang Mingzhu died, he had repeatedly asked himself if he regretted killing Jiang Mingzhu.
The answer was yes; he regretted it!
After wooing Jiang Mingzhu for so long, would he not like her?
He admitted that he had only wanted to get together with Jiang Mingzhu in the beginning for popularity.
But… as they had gotten to know each other more, Du Lingyang had really fallen for Jiang Mingzhu.
It was the first time he had liked a girl so much.
But in the end, he still had chosen for Jiang Mingzhu’s songwriting book. Du Lingyang thought about the reason…
Perhaps it was because he loved his success more than her, and he coveted her father’s reputation as the godfather of pop music.
But sometimes Du Lingyang couldn’t help but wonder…
If he had helped Jiang Mingzhu release an album instead of stealing the songs back then, Jiang Mingzhu might have felt grateful towards him. And perhaps they would have been married now, and he wouldn’t have been so nervous.
However, he was an ambitious man. His ego couldn’t accept being less powerful than his woman.
Du Lingyang looked at his reflection in the mirror. His eyes reddened…
…
The day of her entering the filming crew finally came. As someone who would rather die than look ugly, Su Manman packed several large pieces of luggage and got Dong Dong to send them to the hotel first.
Looking at the amount of Su Manman’s luggage, Dong Dong was afraid that Director Chen Wenhua would scold her.
She reminded Su Manman in a soft voice, “Manman… Director Chen Wenhua is famous for being strict in the industry. You wouldn’t be able to use all the things you brought in your luggage, anyway. So, why don’t you take some stuff out and only bring stuff that is necessary? Let’s not bring this much with us. Don’t leave a poor impression on the director on the first day of filming.”
Su Manman was sitting on a single-seater sofa with a mask on her face. Four manicurists were sitting there helping give Su Manman a manicure…
Although she was about to enter the film crew and couldn’t do a French-style manicure, Su Manman did some hand treatment and applied some nail polish protector!
Having shiny nails exuded a healthy feeling.
Especially since she had to spend a long time with Shi Hanchu on set, Su Manman paid more attention to these details.
Placed over Su Manman’s closed eyes were two cucumber slices. Upon hearing Dong Dong’s suggestion, she replied, “I’ll be using everything! Send them over to the hotel first. Don’t worry… Director Chen Wenhua won’t be angry over this matter.”
After working with Director Chen Wenhua so many times, Su Manman was familiar with his personality…
Director Chen Wenhua wouldn’t interfere with his actors’ private lives as long as they don’t affect filming!
However, if they let their private life interfere with filming, then even if they were the best actor or best actress in the industry, Director Chen Wenhua would not hesitate to chew them out.
Because she had to put on makeup on the set, Su Manman put on a face mask and did all of her skincare routines. After she was done, she only put on a thick layer of sunscreen before leaving the house.
What was the old adage? Apply sunscreen properly, and you will have looks that deserve a high-schooler as a husband!
She didn’t expect her husband to be a high-schooler. At the very least, he had to be as tender as those 17 or 18-year-old kids. Only then would she be in a good mood!
Seeing Su Manman’s insistence, Dong Dong could only bring Su Manman’s luggage to the hotel first.
According to the production’s standards, Su Manman’s room was already a luxurious one.
However, Su Manman would never mistreat herself when she was out…
Moreover, everyone in the Fu family had spoiled her. When the Old Madam of the Fu family heard the name of the hotel Su Manman was staying at, she immediately got someone to upgrade Su Manman’s room to a presidential suite.
Of course, the Fu family was the one paying.
Although the amount of money saved for the production crew was trivial, every bit counted…
The producer liked actors like Su Manman the most. They didn’t have all kinds of requests for the production crew and would pay for everything they wanted.
However, this also gave the producer a clear signal: Su Manman had a background!
If investors requested Su Manman to accompany them for a meal, the producer would have to weigh the pros and cons to prevent anything bad from happening!
Su Manman had a backer, and the investors would also put the blame on them. As a producer, he couldn’t bear the responsibility.
…
Su Manman went straight to the dressing room for filming.
She was halfway through her makeup when she heard that Shi Hanchu had arrived. She couldn’t help but smile as she took the cup of water from Dong Dong and took a sip of water with a straw, trying her best not to ruin her makeup.
Today, she and Shi Hanchu didn’t need to film. This morning they just had a fitting for their costumes and makeup.
In the afternoon, they had a script reading with the entire crew…
This was Director Chen Wenhua’s habit.
Practicing the script with one another took days. During this period… they would also shoot promotional photos or make styling adjustments.
Seeing Su Manman’s relaxed manner, Dong Dong couldn’t help but break out in cold sweat for her.
After all, Director Chen Wenhua was well-known for being strict in the industry. However, Su Manman was too relaxed, seemingly uninformed about the filming procedure at all.
Dong Dong could already see Su Manman getting scolded badly.
However, the situation that she had expected didn’t happen. Su Manman seemed to be very familiar with the whole process. Although she appeared lackadaisical, she would immediately enter her character’s state of mind once she started working.
Moreover, Su Manman seemed to understand Chen Wenhua’s intentions very well. Director Chen Wenhua was almost about to make Su Manman his confidante.
Dong Dong was a little fascinated with what was happening…
Could it be that the rumors outside were wrong?
Could it be that Director Chen Wenhua was actually a kind and amiable director?
But when Director Chen Wenhua severely reprimanded the props team, her suspicion immediately disappeared.
You, Director Chen, are still the same Director Chen. So fierce that it makes one scared.
Shi Hanchu’s styling requirements were fewer than Su Manman’s…
Hence, Su Manman needed to start the styling early and end late.
When the two of them were shooting publicity photos in the studio, Su Manman kept smiling at Shi Hanchu, who was dressed in a suit.
Although Shi Hanchu frowned, he wasn’t really angry. “What are you laughing at?”
“Why are you so handsome?” Su Manman wasn’t stingy with her praise.
These words stunned Shi Hanchu.
Shi Hanchu cleared his throat and lowered his gaze to tidy up his suit sleeves. The sleeves of his white shirt were revealed, making his long and slender fingers look especially good.
Su Manman could vaguely see that Shi Hanchu’s ears… had turned red?
However, before Su Manman could confirm it, Shi Hanchu had already turned around to communicate with the photographer about the next shoot.
She must have seen wrong…
Shi Hanchu must have heard such flattery frequently. He should already be immune to it!
Su Manman’s infatuated gaze followed Shi Hanchu closely. She was wearing her heart on her sleeve, and everyone could tell that Su Manman liked Shi Hanchu.
