The Film Queen’s Little Bunny Wife - Chapter 3
“Yes, yes! That’s the look! This is the look of Qin Qianhe realizing she wants to spend her life with Li Wangshui, but feeling helpless against the decay of the feudal dynasty, deciding to give up romance and sever emotional ties!”
Director Li, looking at Ling Hanyan in the camera her eyes welling up with tears, gazing at the male lead with lingering affection, but gradually turning cold clapped his thighs with delight.
This was the expression he wanted! He had struggled to find it in bits and pieces of bad takes, but now it was suddenly there!
The Immortal Crane (Xianhe) had accompanied the male lead for many years; they were childhood sweethearts and destined lovers, sharing a deep bond as he rose from Crown Prince to Emperor.
This profound relationship was about to be eroded by the impending arrival of three thousand beauties, and this moment captured Xianhe’s decision to let go of that affection.
With this scene, her subsequent path to immortality would be more reasonable and more anticipated!
He hadn’t expected that letting Ling Hanyan rest for a while would bring about such a magical improvement in performance!
He looked at the stunned Hou Feng and frowned slightly.
What a pity; this scene would have to be reshot.
Ling Hanyan returned, immersed in the role quickly and deeply, but Hou Feng, who was playing Li Wangshui, failed to match her performance!
At this moment, he was just staring blankly at her cold face, completely devoid of his imperial demeanor, instead resembling a poor scholar bewitched by a celestial fairy.
Director Li raised his megaphone: “Cut!”
“Let’s pause for a moment. Hou Feng, go review your lines, try to nail it in one take next time. Ling Hanyan’s take was excellent; remember that state and we’ll reshoot shortly.”
As soon as the director spoke, everyone on set started moving.
Lin Yingxue, who had been watching from the sidelines for a while, ran over to chat with Ling Hanyan while she was touching up her makeup.
She said with a grin, “Sister Yan, you’ve gained a lot from spending time with the little bunny! I just heard the director complaining that your eyes had no emotion. Emotionally lacking actors are a huge taboo!”
Ling Hanyan glanced at her but didn’t argue, just gave an “Mhm.”
Lin Yingxue changed the subject, “I really want a cute fan like that too!”
Accustomed to Sister Yan’s coolness, she knew the actress wasn’t annoyed.
So, she continued on her own: “The little bunny looks so soft and sweet. If she entered the entertainment industry, so many people would love her. I’m even thinking of urging Sister Wang to get her contact information and ask if she wants to debut!”
Ling Hanyan waited patiently for the makeup artist to finish her eyeliner, then turned to look at Lin Yingxue with disapproval: “Don’t. The entertainment industry isn’t a good place.”
Soon, the male and female leads were in position, the lighting technician adjusted the details, and they prepared to continue filming.
Hou Feng joked with Ling Hanyan, “Your acting just now was really good. We’ve been acting opposite each other for so long, and it’s the first time I truly felt you were my ‘Crown Princess’.”
Hou Feng debuted early, has a great appearance, and has always been hardworking.
He had been nominated for Best Actor several times and had partnered with at least eighty actresses.
Other girls often showed a trace of gentle femininity when acting opposite him.
After several months, he had never seen that look on Ling Hanyan’s face.
Ling Hanyan adjusted a stray strand of hair, and a warmth entered her eyes as she recalled a happy memory: “I have to thank a little fan of mine for that.”
She silently added the latter part in her mind: The little bunny looked like she was about to cry from sadness when she said goodbye to me.
Hou Feng nodded thoughtfully, “I understand. Sometimes just being looked at by a fan makes your heart feel warm.”
Unaware of the praises being heaped upon her, Tu Jiaojiao settled into the car for the ride back.
Her mood was a mixture of elation and regret.
Ling Hanyan was so beautiful, and so gentle, so gentle! She couldn’t understand how such a wonderful person could exist in the world!
But she was too unassertive and timid even though they were face to face, she hadn’t managed to chat properly…
Tu Jiaojiao set the photo they took together as her phone’s wallpaper, smiling dreamily at Ling Hanyan, her eyes almost greedily tracing her features.
Before transmigrating, the first time she saw Ling Hanyan’s poster, she felt a sense of familiarity, strong liking, and an extreme desire to get closer to her.
It must have been love at first sight!
The little bunny’s heart was once again filled with warmth and completeness.
The phone suddenly rang, and Ling Hanyan’s face disappeared from the wallpaper, startling Tu Jiaojiao.
She looked closely it was a call from “Sister”!
“Jiaojiao, how was your visit to the set? Did you see Ling Hanyan?”
“It’s Ling Hanyan! I saw her, she’s so beautiful, I’m so happy.” Tu Jiaojiao felt her eyes getting moist listening to Tu Yueming’s voice.
Sister’s voice sounded a bit familiar, yet a bit strange.
Before transmigrating, she also had a sister.
But that sister was a gray Angora rabbit that couldn’t take human form or speak, only loving to eat spiritual grass and kick people all day.
However, in her imagination, if her sister could take human form, her voice would sound exactly like the one coming from the phone.
“Good, good, good, Ling Hanyan. I’m glad you saw her. It’s a good thing I called ahead. I heard from the assistant that they usually don’t allow fans on set.”
Tu Yueming laughed for a while, “I can’t figure out why you weren’t interested in anything for the first eighteen years of your life, but suddenly you wanted to become a star chaser, and you chose such a cold beauty.”
Tu Jiaojiao bit her lower lip and didn’t speak. Liking someone was just liking them; there was no way to explain it!
“Oh, oh, oh, getting shy now.” Tu Yueming laughed heartily again.
After a while, she stopped laughing, “Alright, alright, I won’t tease you anymore. Mi Jie and I have been quite busy lately. She has a business trip, and I have meetings. Can you take care of Xuanxuan for a few days?”
Tu Jiaojiao searched her mind: Mi Jie is named Mi Nuoka, her sister’s Spanish mixed-race wife.
Xuanxuan is their child, currently in the last year of kindergarten.
She has a head of little curls, is very precocious, and unbearably cute.
Tu Jiaojiao hadn’t seen Tu Mixuan for a long time, so she immediately replied, “Of course, I can. Remember to bring her little blanket too.”
When she returned home, she saw her tall sister holding a small beanpole, waving to her at the entrance of the villa.
Tu Jiaojiao felt a bit helpless but understood that her sister always acted on impulse.
She had integrated perfectly with her memories after transmigrating, as if she had been the second daughter of the Tu Group since birth. Because of this, she felt an immense affection and tolerance for these two blood related girls.
Their family had plenty of money to hire nannies, but Sister Mi felt uncomfortable seeing strangers holding their child.
So, they gave up that idea, and the two of them had always kept Tu Mixuan close by.
Only when they were extremely busy, like now, would they ask someone to look after Xuanxuan.
That evening, Tu Jiaojiao took Xuanxuan to the cinema to watch Jianghu Wuyao (No Medicine for the Martial World) again.
After the movie, Xuanxuan also became a fan of the beautiful and fierce Ling Hanyan.
Tu Jiaojiao sipped her milkshake and asked her, “Who is your favorite character in Jianghu Wuyao?”
“Of course, it’s the main character Jiang Wuyao!” Tu Mixuan said solemnly.
Tu Jiaojiao tried to explain that Jiang Wuyao wasn’t the main character, but the lead was the other older sister in the white dress, but Xuanxuan absolutely refused to believe it.
She pointed her little fleshy finger at the movie poster in front of the cinema and analyzed with apparent reason, “Auntie, look, the title is Jianghu Wuyao (No Medicine for the Martial World), so Jiang Wuyao must be the main character!”
When taking care of a child, the hands of the clock move surprisingly fast.
Soon, the day for the dinner date with Ling Hanyan arrived, and Tu Jiaojiao was so excited she couldn’t sleep early that morning.
