Chapter 32 -32: Stunning

The director originally had high hopes for Shu Wan, but when she emerged dressed for the part, a hint of disappointment flickered in his eyes.

Acting in TV dramas and movies is very much about the on-camera atmosphere.

Some people are particularly beautiful in real life, but once they don the costume and get in front of the camera, they lose the beauty of the character, while others, though average-looking, exude exceptional charm once in role.

The director felt that Shu Wan might belong to the former category.

Although beautiful, she wasn’t quite right for the camera.

“Alright, just go ahead and act,” the director said, clearly indicating he had given up on her and simply wanted her to go through the motions and leave.

Wang Tian, of course, noticed this.

He frantically signaled to Shu Wan, hoping she would change into another outfit and try again.

But Shu Wan paid no attention to his hints.

She glanced at the camera, “I want to try the scene where the characters first meet.”

“Whatever,” the director just wanted Shu Wan to hurry up and finish so she could leave.

The Film and Television City had a variety of settings readily available, and at the moment, everyone was in a large courtyard set against a fake rockery.

Right beside Shu Wan was a pond.

“OK, start,” the director muttered absentmindedly while flipping through the information of the next actor to audition.

Then, a splash was heard at the front.

The director looked up in surprise and saw Shu Wan had jumped into the water.

“Oh no, someone’s committing suicide, call the police!” Wang Tian, frightened, quickly shuffled to the edge of the pond, yelling for people to call the police while preparing to dive in and rescue Shu Wan.

Even though Shu Wan had turned his hair white with frustration and hadn’t made him much money, after all, she was still a human life.

But as soon as Wang Tian stepped into the water, the calm surface exploded in a splash as Shu Wan emerged.

At this moment, having washed off all her makeup in the water, her delicate features, wet and clearer, appeared even more ethereally beautiful.

It was not just her beauty that mattered, but the look and demeanor she now embodied seemed like that of the legitimate daughter of a noble family from ancient times.

Even with her body submerged in the water, unable to see her clothing or accessories, one could feel her presence just from the serene gaze in her eyes.

The character Shu Wan was auditioning for, the second female lead, was proud by nature and actually had no fondness for the male lead when she first met him.

Now, Shu Wan looked towards the empty spot onshore, and even from a lower position, looking up at the shore, she managed to convey an air of looking down from on high, “You are the new top scorer?

Breaking into the inner court of the Prime Minister’s Mansion, what punishment do you think you deserve?”

Shu Wan spoke at a normal pace and volume, but her clear, tranquil eyes quietly looking at you, speaking slowly about the accusation, instilled a sense of dread from deep within.

Wang Tian was dumbfounded; as an experienced agent, he could see that Shu Wan’s acting was certainly godlike.

In his excitement, he forgot he was at the edge of the pond and, carelessly, toppled into the water.

Gulping down water, Wang Tian thought he was going to choke until a pair of hands pulled him out.

Wang Tian coughed without managing to spit out the water he had swallowed, sitting disheveled on the ground as if he’d just crawled out of a refugee camp.

For this reason, Shu Wan, standing next to him, appeared even more like a cold, detached fairy.

Her long hair spilled over her shoulders, making her skin look even whiter, rendering it impossible for anyone to take their eyes off her.

The director made a decision on the spot, “You’ve got the role.

Let’s sign the contract now.”

Wang Tian was feeling nauseous from the pond water in his stomach when he heard the director’s words.

His eyes immediately lit up as he wiped the water from his face, “Alright, Director, let’s go sign the contract now.”

Shu Wan’s clothes were all soaked, so Wang Tian let her change her clothes first while he handled the contract signing.

Shu Wan returned to the changing room.

Just as she was about to change into her own clothes, she found them thrown into a pile of filthy water, making them unwearable.

Everyone had already left the changing room, and there was no way to find out who was responsible.

With her clothes dirty like this, it was clearly impossible to wear them again, so Shu Wan picked a clean costume to change into.

She explained the situation to the director while wearing the costume, and the director didn’t mind, agreeing to let Shu Wan wear the clothes back home.

By this time, Wang Tian had also finished the signing process.

He was happily humming a tune as he came over and was once again astonished by Shu Wan’s changed appearance.

During the audition, Shu Wan had worn an ancient noblewoman’s lavish dress, dignified and elegant.

Now, Shu Wan had changed into a light aqua-colored long dress, complemented by her long black hair.

With her naturally stunning features unadorned with makeup, she truly embodied the essence of a “fairy.”

“Wow, wow, wow,” Wang Tian couldn’t help but remark, “It seems I’ll need to check out the villas later.”

Having such an artist under his wing, how could he not make a fortune?

Sensing the money-making potential of Shu Wan, Wang Tian’s enthusiasm towards her rose, “Babe, how are you getting back later?

Let me call a car for you.”

Normally, such an overly affectionate nickname would be inappropriate coming from a man.

But seeing Wang Tian speak with his raised pinky and even more delicate stance than hers, all the inappropriateness of the nickname “Babe” dissolved into nothingness.

“I have a ride; I’ll go back on my own.”

“Okay then, I’ll walk you out.”

Saying this, Wang Tian even picked up Shu Wan’s bag, “Let’s go.”

Shu Wan did not protest, allowing Wang Tian to follow her.

Outside the Film and Television City, the driver had been waiting for a long time.

Seeing Shu Wan approach, the driver immediately opened the car door for her.

Watching Shu Wan get into the car, Wang Tian’s face, which had been smiling, suddenly cracked with an inexplicable expression.

He looked at the Rolls Royce that could buy him a thousand times over, “No way, babe, did you land a sugar daddy?”

“No.”

“Ah alright, no wonder you’ve got such great opportunities these past few days.” Wang Tian returned the bag to Shu Wan, lost in his own thoughts, “I can’t manage your affairs for you, so just take care of yourself, all right?

If someone’s wife comes knocking, just don’t say you know me.”

“…..” Shu Wan looked at Wang Tian with a complicated expression, feeling that this agent’s thought process was somewhat abnormal.

“Alright now, off you go.” Wang Tian’s tone was tinged with the frustration of disappointed expectations, “Next time, don’t come in this car, it’s too conspicuous.

Aren’t you afraid of the legit wife finding out about you?”

With that said and without waiting for Shu Wan’s response, Wang Tian turned and left.

He hailed a yellow cab at the roadside and wandered off into the distance, singing his out-of-tune song.

“Young Madam, shall we head home now?” the driver asked.

Shu Wan withdrew her gaze and rolled up the car window, “To Fu Yang’s place for dinner.”

“Understood.”
