A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire
Chapter 68 Tension

Chapter 68: Chapter 68 Tension

In the scene, Li Yushen had taken off his yellow robe, dressed as a young general.

His features were delicate, and even in his thirties, he could pass for a teenager without seeming out of place.

He saw Mu Yan approaching and asked, "Nervous?"

Probably because she had been filming lately, Mu Yan was used to it and didn’t feel nervous at all.

But to appear modest, she still said, "A little."

"Don’t be afraid, even if you mess up, just redo it. The entire crew is ready to go through multiple takes with you."

Mu Yan, "..."

She didn’t know how to respond to that.

But she somewhat realized that no one had high hopes for her.

Indeed, she was as inexperienced as a blank sheet of paper, and no one would have expectations for her.

She took a deep breath and earnestly said, "I will try my best."

"Mm!" Li Yushen nodded.

Soon, the assistant director called out for actors to take their places.

This first scene was when Princess Qingcheng and the young General Long first met.

The young general had returned triumphant and was in the royal court receiving rewards from the Emperor.

The beloved young princess suddenly burst in, distressed because her cat had died, seeking comfort from her father.

The Emperor, doting on his daughter, comforted her thoroughly.

The young princess suddenly noticed the young general standing in the hall.

Her eyes filled with scrutiny, as if discovering something new and fascinating, she walked closer to him.

The young general lowered his head, avoiding her gaze.

But she drew nearer, completely ignoring the formal decorum.

Finally, the young general, unable to bear it, frowned and asked, "Is there something dirty on my face? Why does the Princess keep staring at me?"

The young princess stared at him blankly, her beautiful face full of amazement.

She quickly came back to her senses and said with a smile, "You’re very handsome. I’ve taken a liking to you."

The young general frowned even more deeply, just about to ask her to be cautious with her words.

She beat him to it by requesting an edict from the Emperor, "Father, I just heard you say you want to reward General Long. How about making him my prince consort?"

The young general looked at the spirited young girl in shock, clearly unexpected of this outcome.

"Stop!" Chen Zhou suddenly shouted.

The quiet set finally had some activity, though the atmosphere was inexplicably oppressive.

Mu Yan relaxed her mind, the first scene was over.

She turned her head to look at Li Yushen and saw him looking at her with a complex expression.

Her heart skipped a beat, what kind of reaction was that?

Did she perform poorly?

Mu Yan vaguely felt many eyes on her, she turned her head and saw small groups of people whispering, their gazes occasionally drifting towards her.

Even Song Cheng’an was looking at her with a serious expression.

She looked at Li Yushen and asked, "Brother Shen, can you tell me where I didn’t perform well?"

Li Yushen smiled slightly, "I can’t."

He was telling the truth.

Does this mean it was disastrously indescribable? Mu Yan began to doubt her abilities.

She had been filming these past few days, thinking she was in a good state, but the result...

"Is this really your first time acting?" Li Yushen suddenly asked.

Mu Yan replied, "I was a stand-in actress for half a year before, and I just wrapped up a role a few days ago."

She added, "Brother Shen, is there really no hope for me?"

Li Yushen gave her a surprised look, asking, "Has anyone ever told you that your acting is quite different from your usual demeanor?"

"What?" Mu Yan looked at him somewhat puzzled.

Li Yushen did not answer, "Good or bad, Director Chen has the final say, the assistant director is calling us over."

He turned and walked towards the director.

Mu Yan, with an anxious heart, followed him, ready to receive criticism.
