"Attention all units, attention all units."
"The first scene of 'The Spy Couple' begins!"
Liu Yong's chubby hand trembled as he spoke into his walkie-talkie.
The shooting had officially started!
Before the shoot.
Liu Yong had reassured Xu Mo.
Not to be too nervous.
If one take didn't work, they could do a second, and if the second didn't work, a third.
They had plenty of time!
All Xu Mo needed to do was perform naturally.
As for Xu Mo.
Liu Yong and the crew were giving him the utmost flexibility.
If the big-name stars of the past knew about Liu Yong's attitude.
They would probably cry.
Because Liu Yong had no problem berating even them.
He didn't spare anyone's feelings.
They were big stars, sure.
But he was a top-tier director.
He had directed many classic films.
Of course, he had the right to challenge these actors.
But when it came to Xu Mo.
He had to keep his temper in check.
Back to the scene.
Xu Mo stood outside the door, his expression revealing a mix of fatigue, joy, and longing for his beloved.
After opening the door.
Xu Mo followed the script's instructions.
He didn't change his shoes.
And hurriedly walked into the room!
Not seeing Lin An'an in the living room.
Xu Mo deliberately slowed his pace.
In front of the monitor.
Song Yixue and Liu Yong were completely captivated.
"This Xu Mo has some real talent!!! That expression before entering the door, it takes years of practice to pull off."
"I don't think it's practiced, it feels like a genuine reaction of missing his wife."
The camera continued to follow.
Xu Mo approached the balcony where the sound was coming from.
Lin An'an was hanging clothes.
Her back turned to Xu Mo.
Xu Mo's expression changed three times in a second.
Longing--joy--and then uncontrollable excitement.
He suddenly wrapped his arms around her from behind.
Their bodies pressed together.
Both of them shivered.
Xu Mo had no choice!
There was no room for him to change the script this time.
This was how it was written.
As for Lin An'an, being suddenly embraced by a man.
Her heart couldn't help but race.
Xu Mo leaned close to her ear, his voice hoarse and tender.
"We've been through so much these past days, you thought I was dead, but I'm still alive."
"Darling~ Have you missed me during this time?"
Holy cow!!!!
Xu Mo's scalp tingled.
Who on earth came up with this line?
But it was too late now.
He had no other choice.
To fully deliver the "forgiveness hat" to the Crooked-Mouth Dragon King.
He was going all out!
Lin An'an's body trembled, this was her genuine reaction.
A look of panic flashed across her face.
Then Xu Mo's voice rang out.
And she quickly switched to a happy expression.
Her beautiful face.
Blushed visibly.
Lin An'an's heart was racing, usually, such scenes were left to a stunt double.
But this time it wasn't possible.
And the way Xu Mo made her feel.
Was quite nice.
So she didn't insist on using a double.
"I knew it, I knew you weren't dead."
Although Lin An'an seemed to be in control.
She was more nervous than anyone!
In front of the monitor.
Liu Yong slapped his thigh, "Damn, this is perfect! The vibe is spot on."
Song Yixue couldn't help but get excited too.
As the scene continued.
Xu Mo repeated his lines.
And this time.
Lin An'an's face turned red, her head felt dizzy.
The warm breath Xu Mo exhaled near her ear was too much.
This was a real-life domineering CEO!
Not from a novel.
He was literally playing himself!!
Lin An'an was in a daze.
To the point where she even forgot her lines.
Just standing there dumbfounded.
Letting Xu Mo hold her like that.
Xu Mo's eyelids twitched.
He was utterly speechless inside.
Is this what a star is?
What kind of star forgets their lines?
Even he, a non-professional actor, was doing better than her!
Xu Mo wanted to give her a hint.
He gently squeezed her waist.
Thinking Lin An'an would instantly catch on.
But reality proved Xu Mo wrong.
Lin An'an shivered again.
And then she completely froze.
No reaction.
"Cut! Cut! Cut!!!!!"
Liu Yong's body shook with anger, his face twisted in fury, "What are you doing? What are you doing? What are you doing?!!!"
"Tell me, what are you doing? Are you dumb? Mute?"
"Why are you just standing there!?"
Song Yixue's pretty face was also filled with anger, anger that made her look fierce.
"An'an, what are you doing? Don't you understand?"
"Xu Mo isn't even a professional actor, yet he's doing better than you, and you're just standing there, not even speaking, making all of us wait for you?"
The two of them were tag-teaming.
But suddenly, as if remembering something.
Lin An'an wasn't just an actress, she was also a director.
Almost on the same level as them.
And with Xu Mo present.
If they left a bad impression on him.
It would be a disaster.
If Xu Mo got scared off.
There would be no more shooting.
Instantly, their attitudes did a complete 180.
First, Liu Yong, his face broke into a fawning smile, like an old eunuch in the palace.
"Xu Mo, you did great, it's just that Lin An'an didn't perform her role well."
Song Yixue forced a smile, seeing the handsome Xu Mo looking at her.
Her face showed a natural, delighted smile.
"Director Liu is right, An'an, just remember your lines and your part, okay~"
Just moments ago, they were playing the bad cop.
Now they were playing the good cop.
Lin An'an was utterly embarrassed, being outdone by a non-professional.
Who wouldn't feel awkward?
Lin An'an was a big star, but she didn't have the arrogance or temper of one.
If you made a mistake, you owned up to it.
She apologized sheepishly.
"I'm really sorry, this was my mistake."
"Director Liu, Director Song, I've wasted everyone's time because of my carelessness."
"As compensation, I want to do this scene in one take, without a stunt double."
Lin An'an didn't dislike Xu Mo.
Because of Xu Mo's outstanding performance.
She made this bold decision.
Mostly because she could hear Xu Mo's thoughts.
She knew Xu Mo didn't have any romantic feelings for her.
So she dared to challenge herself.
Gasp!!!!!
Everyone couldn't help but inhale sharply.
Oh my!
What did they just hear?
This was a Sichuan opera scene!!!
They never expected Lin An'an to actually take it on herself.
Truly next level.
Everyone present looked thrilled.
Except for Lin An'an's stunt double.
Her expression was one of pure disappointment!!!!
Heart] Chen Yi traversed the cultivation world for eight hundred years, charging his way to the Tribulation Transcendence stage. Just as he was outwitting his 81st Heavenly Tribulation to ascend to immortality, he was suddenly pulled into a chat group called the "Multiverse Transmigrators Support Group." To his surprise, the group was filled with nothing but fresh-faced newbies who had just transmigrated. [Help! I transmigrated into a disgraced concubine in the cold palace, and the tyrant emperor is about to execute me!] [I ended up as a cannon-fodder villain, and the protagonist is still chasing me—WTF!] [I woke up as the protagonist’s father, but I’m about to be sacrificed in a ritual! What do I do? Urgent!!!] Chen Yi stared at the chaotic flood of desperate pleas in the group and fell into deep thought. "Seriously? You drag me into a newbie transmigrator chat group… only after I’m one step away from becoming an immortal?"
+【Epic Battles!】 "Your Highness, they say Linxi Temple is miraculous. Won’t you make a wish?" "A wish? It should be making wishes to me." "That may be so, but since you’re already here..." "..." "Fine. Then grant this princess a consort to play with." "He must be obedient, devoted, and utterly infatuated with my body—so much so that he’d kneel and kiss my feet." "Your Highness, that’s not a consort. That’s a dog." "Then add clever, witty, heroic, ambitious yet pragmatic..." "Hmm, that’s enough for now. I’ll add more later." After tossing out these words half in jest, Princess Anle departed the temple—only to catch a fleeting glimpse of the Bodhisattva statue smiling at her. Meanwhile, Yang An, fresh out of university, was having a very bad day. Good news: He’d transmigrated into another world with a cheat granting tenfold combat power. Bad news: He’d immediately fallen into the clutches of a certain villainess. Good news: Said villainess possessed peerless beauty and royal status. Bad news: She was absolutely monstrous!!! In the frozen wilderness, Yang An knelt beneath Qin Guo’er’s feet, drenched in sweat despite the cold. Desperately clutching her porcelain-perfect foot—the very one poised to crush his throat—he could only think: How do I survive this?! Need answers NOW!
and couldn't return to the real world. Finally, I gave up and decided to go with the flow, only to discover that writing a diary could make me stronger. Since no one could read it, Su Luo wrote freely, daring to pen anything and everything. Female Lead #1: "Not bad. This diary helped me steal all the protagonist's opportunities. I just want to get stronger." Female Lead #2: "I don’t care about reaching the peak of the cultivation world. Right now, I just want to enjoy the chaos." Female Lead #3: "What? Everyone around me is a spy? I’m the Joker Demon Lord?" ... It’s so strange. Why is the plot completely off track, yet the ending remains the same? Are you all just messing with me?!
d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
