Chapter 843: Queen Yan
As expected, the scene was shot with just one take, as the director did not ask her to stop. However, to Yan Huan, it was still not good enough. The scene was not perfect nor impressive enough. If it was Director Jin on the scene, he would have said ‘cut!’
No, if it were up to him, he would have given up. They had already taken an entire day to film a single scene. With so much time, they still ended up with such an imperfect shot. It was rare to come across such a slow-witted actress. However, despite her stupidity, nothing could beat her powerful connections and support.
“Yan Huan, it is your turn now.” Yan Huan stood up and put her script on the table as the director called out for her. She had been reading the script over the past few days whenever she was free. Thanks to her extremely good memory, she already knew how she should act and what she should say.
With a loud clunk, Yu Keman’s bicycle had scratched a white Bentley. The car in front of her stopped. As the car door opened, a slender leg stretched out from the car. She too was wearing Sea City University’s uniform, the outline of her leg was eye-catching. It was as if she was emitting a gentle light, and her presence was like the September air, overflowing with vigor.
A woman stepped out, her bright red lips slightly parted. Although she was dressed as a punk, it could not hide her queen-like aura. The character was defined as one that is arrogant, haughty, and even disdainful, with little respect for others due to her wealthy background. Yet Yan Huan managed to deliver the character with a unique charisma that was beyond the script’s design.
She was Tang Yiqing, a freshman at Sea City University. Her academic performance and her outward appearance was considered mediocre, but her family was wealthy. Even though her grades were low, she managed to obtain direct entry into Sea City University through nepotism. She was even considered a special status student under the nobility stream. Her uniform bore a five star badge that was different from the normal stream’s leaf.
Not only was the school critically divided, every batch of students in this university were drastically polarized.
Top students from poor families looked down on those good-for-nothing brats from rich families, while the rich kids looked down on those paupers. As time went by, this became the school’s culture.
The poor students competed academically, while the rich kids competed on what they ate and wore.
The different streams of students competed on different things, living their own lives without affecting one another.
However, when the poor kids offended these noble students, it is showtime.
This would be the case for Yu Keman, who scratched a car when she had barely started her college life.
Tang Yiqing walked over and stood with her back against her car. She fixed her gaze on the top of Yu Keman’s head, her eyes half-lidded, a faint smile playing on her lips. Even with her punk-like outfit, her exceptional aura was shining from within, and not merely from her outward appearance.
Her supercilious queen-like aura once again reminded everyone of her title as Movie Queen Yan. Movie Queen Yan was known not because of her pretty face, but because of her remarkable acting, and her ability to make any character come alive.
She was acting with her entire body, just by standing there in front of the camera, she was no longer Yan Huan. With her own expression, her own language, and her own actions, she created yet another vivid character.
Even though Yan Huan had stopped acting for two years, her acting skills were still as impressive as ever. Even with a single glance, she was able to outshine Sun Yuhan.
She did not surpass Sun Yuhan’s part, but her outstanding performance was a form of pressure to Sun Yuhan. Sun Yuhan could make Yan Huan a supporting actress, she could also cast her as an ugly character. However, acting was her fatal weakness. She was incapable of interfering with Yan Huan’s acting, and she could not make Yan Huan damage her years of reputation as an excellent actress.
If her acting was not up to standard, Yan Huan would rather give up on the filming.
Sun Yuhan felt cold sweat roll down her back. At first, she did not think that it would be this challenging filming a drama. But now, under the shadow of Yan Huan’s outstanding acting skills, she had begun to forget her lines.
Yan Huan drew herself up and stopped in front of Sun Yuhan, her arms crossed over her chest languidly. Since they asked her to keep up with Sun Yuhan, fine then, she would do as they wish.
“Well, are you not going to apologize after hitting my car?”
Sun Yuhan opened her mouth, but she made no sound and uttered no words.
Yan Huan smiled abruptly. Despite her cheesy styling, her eyes were still astonishingly bright. She raised her leg out of a sudden. Her legs were really beautiful, perfectly slender and well proportioned.
Thud.
She kicked the bicycle to the ground.
“You...” Anger flashed across Sun Yuhan’s face, but Yan Huan reached out and patted Sun Yuhan’s face lightly instead.
“Little potato, I know you cannot afford this.”
Upon saying this, she turned, a gentle breeze lifting her knee-length skirt and showing off her perfectly-proportioned legs. Coupled with a queen-like aura, she was indeed breathtaking.
Yan Huan absolutely killed it in this scene, and nothing was affected even though Sun Yuhan had forgotten her lines. Yan Huan had saved the day, but as a result, she had to put Sun Yuhan down too.
“I would say we should change the title of this drama to The Revenge of The Queen.”
A minor actor whispered to the people standing around.
“Movie Queen Yan was an international best actress. Who would dare to use her as a supporting prop? She’s probably given up on living.”
“Shh, she has powerful connections behind her. Stop talking about this, you might get yourself into trouble.”
Goddess Yan was on fire throughout the entire day of filming. Not once did the director commanded her to stop, and Sun Yuhan was led around by the nose by Goddess Yan. Almost everything was progressing according to Goddess Yan’s acting and lead.
Up to this point, it was hard to identify who was the female lead of this drama – Goddess Yan or Sun Yuhan.
After an entire day of filming, having to act with others and accommodate them, Yan Huan was too tired to move. Once she reached home, barely a minute after she laid down...
She received a call. In a daze, she picked up her phone and looked closely. It was an unknown number, the caller’s identity was anonymous. Usually she would never pick up unknown calls, but because she was still dazed from her sleep, she picked it up without thinking much.
“Hello...” Her voice was feeble as she answered the call.
“Yan Huan, come over to the Ye house.”
The caller had hung up without giving Yan Huan time to respond.
