Pearl looked indifferent, saying, “I told you, those guys are just amateurs.” She then turned to look at Richard, who couldn’t hide his complex expression either. “Right, Richard?”
Richard nodded and hesitated. “Yeah…” He had quite a spirited wife. Well, how should he put it... She was pretty independent.
Yup, she was his type.
“Don’t worry, I won’t beat you up,” Pearl said with a smirk as she reached for his hand.
Richard whispered in her ear, “You couldn’t beat me anyway.”
Pearl glared at him. “What did you say? How about we give it a try here?”
Richard was at a loss for words.
Pearl passed the director’s test and officially joined the production.
Even though no one dared to have any bad intentions towards her, Richard couldn't leave her alone on the set. Everyone knew she was his girlfriend, so he had to stay by her side.
"Aren't you feeling hot standing under the sun?"
They were filming at a man-made beach, and the temperature was exceptionally high. With Richard's tall, lean figure standing in the sun, he looked handsome but also pitiful. It was nearly 40 degrees Celsius, no joke.
Richard replied, “Nope, I'm just keeping an eye on you."
His concern was somewhat justified. Soon, they filmed an awkward scene where a guy who had secretly admired the supporting actress for a long time suddenly kissed her on the beach, taking away her first kiss.
Richard’s response was even colder, “No!”
"What do you suggest, then? There are twenty-three kissing scenes coming up. Do you expect me to cut them all?" Pearl felt helpless. It was Richard's fault for not reading the script carefully and getting her into this mess. He brought this upon himself!
Richard looked uncomfortable. “Cut them all.”
The director looked distressed. “But Mister Richard, this drama is meant to be a light campus romance. Without a few intimate scenes, no one will watch it!” He didn’t want to cut them. He was so anxious that he almost burst into tears.
Suddenly, Richard lowered his head, his eyes betraying a long-standing inner conflict.
“I’ll play that guy's part.”
