My Hubby Can't Stop Pampering Me

Chapter 654: Chapter 656 Filming (1)n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Although Xue Feifei had never acted in a film, she had done quite a few web dramas over the past five years. It was impossible for her, an actress labeled as the “seductive secondary female lead,” not to have done so.

However, Xue Feifei’s personality is not one to be molded and manipulated easily. Once during a web drama, when filming was halfway through, the director suddenly added a scene with significant mature content, which she immediately refused to act out.

Fortunately, at that time she had already filmed several web dramas, some that even became hugely popular. Although her company did not continue to boost her popularity, she had garnered a small fan base. So standing up to a web drama director was manageable for her.

Since then, she had rejected any scenes with strong mature content. The scenes she had done previously were so subtle and elegant; they were basically nonexistent.

So now, when Huang Mi came to ask her about performing with the script in hand, she was a bit dumbfounded.

This film did not contain any mature scenes either. The male and female leads were platonic lovers, mutually respectful yet having an affection for each other. The only character who exhibits some provocative behavior was the secondary female lead. In the script, it was not really a mature scene, but one where the secondary female lead schemes a fake marriage with the male lead. In order to escape with the female lead and his friends, the male lead had to play along with her scheme.

So this part of the scene fell on Xue Feifei. It was she who had to initiate and persistently throw herself at him, while the male lead had to resist. It was like flying a kite; much effort was spent restraining from below, but the attractive display above must be her.

However, her acting could not be excessive. Overdoing it was not sensuality, it was vulgarity. It also could not be conservative, as that would halt the entire scene. But she also couldn’t be too engrossed, after all, the secondary female lead is not a fool completely obsessed with love, her mind is actually very clear.

Huang Mi certainly didn’t mind, he was an expert at playing such roles. His best acting technique was to appear seamless and comprehensive, yet noncommittal and irresponsible. But he was not familiar with Xue Feifei, let alone knew if she could grasp the nuances. Therefore, they must rehearse this scene over and over.

Lu Weixi felt a bit awkward, especially when she glanced at the script last night and learnt what this scene was about. She was curious, no doubt, but listening to their rehearsal was somewhat inappropriate. Luckily, a call from Qin Zhiyou came in so she excused herself, “I need to take a call.”

When Lu Weixi left, it opened up a spot, which Huang Mi conveniently took. But when she left, Yu Sixing did not!

He remained seated in his chair, not budging an inch.

Huang Mi took a glance at his spot. Yu Sixing still looked at ease, even turning his face to offer, “I’ve invested in so many plays, yet I’ve never watched a rehearsal live, I’m a bit curious. Please continue, don’t mind me.”

Xue Feifei could have killed him! However, Huang Mi didn’t care. Every time they film such scenes, despite appearing quite explosive on screen, in reality, they are surrounded by countless people like lighting technicians, prop masters, floor managers, and directors. With the camera constantly focused on your face, there was no possibility of any overly dramatic behavior.

Even when some headlines state “XX actress makes her first debut in such scenes”, typically a body double would be used, and very rarely the set would be cleared. So he was not worried at all. He picked up the script and said, “First, you need to be slightly active. Rush a few steps to the wall, then casually let your hand slide down my clothes…”
