Chapter167 Visiting the Workplace
Visiting the Workplace
"Cut"
"Director, I quit! I just can't do this anymore. How can I act with the grass still wet and with worms
squirming around my feet?"
A drama queen would always be a drama queen. They almost finished filming, and the actresses who
played the show were nearly all gone. Jenny was chatting with Director Wang. Milena had failed
several times in her last scene where she was supposed to act angrily and hysterically.
Director Wang and the screenwriter tried to explain what the plot meant, while Milena still looked
confused. She glared at Jenny and proposed, "Director Wang, do you think I need some help? How
about letting somebody else do it for me first, so that I can learn from her?"
As soon as Jenny heard that, she knew the woman was stirring up troubles again.
Director Wang glanced at Jenny. She looked as if she didn't care at all. She said, "It's fine. I don't have
any plans tonight. I'll do the scene and please give me your advice, too."
It was a scene in a rainy day. Her makeup would be inevitably be ruined by the rain. The actresses
were supposed to climb out of the lake, covered in mud and thinking about the betray from both her
lover and her family. She felt twisted because she couldn't get the love she wanted, and at the same
time she felt depressed. The actress had to find the balance between those feelings.
Jenny was standing in a tent. The dresser rubbed mud on her clothes. She frowned and said, "Thank
you, but I'll do it myself.”
She carried the bucket and walked to the lake. Then she filled a half bucket of water and threw in lots
of mud. She poured the muddy water on her shoulder and wiped it on her own face.
Everyone was shocked, including Milena.
Director Wang was the only one watching her appreciatively. He clapped the slate and announced,
"Action!"
A messy girl was sitting by the lake, wailing in the rain. Her tears were mixed up with the rain. There
was mud on her beautiful faces, which made her face blurred. Her pink eyes made everybody's heart
broken. They had as much sympathy for her as hatred. Jenny was acting so vividly.
In the last close-up shot, Jenny's eyes were brimmed with tears. The vividness in her eyes was fading
away, taken over by strangeness. She cried and laughed, staggering out of everybody's sight in the
rain.
"Great!"
Nobody realized the scene had ended until Director Wang yelled out “cut”, because they were all
stunned by her impressive performance.
That was real acting!
Milena stood and watched. Her facial expression looked quite complicated. She opened her mouth
several times while nothing came out of it.
Jenny picked up the towel handed over by Cecelia. Then she ran to the camera to watch the replay.
She asked, "Am I do well just now? Do you think we need to do it once again?"
"Not bad..., but it could've been better if you turn around in the end. That would be more appealing,"
said Director Wang.
Jenny then argued, "but I assumed that Reeva would feel twisted and desperate by then. She wouldn't
look back because she couldn't wait to leave this place."
Milena clenched her fingers and stood aside. She couldn't find any way to join in their conversation.
At first, she thought Jenny was just a beautiful woman that knew nothing about acting at all. She didn't
believe that Jenny would win Director Wang's second look.
Now Milena was the one who looked stupid.
While they were cleaning up the site, Cecelia came in and yelled, "Jenny... guess who's here?"
Jenny was soaked all over and she didn't bring any clothes for change. She was now sitting on a chair, Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
with herself wrapped in her coat, looking at her underwear on the heater. She looked a bit dazed and
asked, "Who's there? Please be Shawn, I need her to bring me my clothes."
"Shawn is too busy today. It's Luke..."
"OK... Who?"
Jenny jumped off the chair upon hearing the name.
Just by then, the flyer of the tent was lifted up, Luke's stern face popped in.
Cecelia stuck her tongue out and left the tent because she knew what was going to happen next.
Jenny and Luke were left in the tent alone.
"Please... take a seat," Jenny stammered. She greeted him and started to tuck the messy hair on her
head. As she lowered her head, she saw her underwear on the heater and froze. In a hurry, she
grabbed the underwear and sat on it.
Luke frowned as he saw what was in the tent. He seemed reluctant to stay in this place. Then he saw
Jenny's bare neck and the beautiful collarbone in the down jacket. He frowned even more deeply and
asked,
"Where's your sweater?"
His questioning tone was cold.
Jenny hesitated for a moment. She shrugged and answered, "It was all wet. Cecelia took it out to get it
dry."
"Is the filming finished?"
"Yes, it's over."
Jenny lowered her head and tried to hide her underwear in the corner.
Luke checked her from head to toes. She was wearing a pair of disposable slippers. Her shoes and
socks were all on the heater. Luke wondered what the film was really about and why Jenny didn't bring
any extra clothes to change.
She just didn't know how to take care of herself.
He frowned and sighed coldly. Then he held her in his arms and lifted her away from the chair.
"Hey, where are you taking me?"
"Home."
It was getting dark. Few people could see what was going on in this place. When the two left the tent,
Jenny could hear Tom chatting and having dinner with the crew. Luke took her away from the noisy and
got her in the car, throwing her on the leather backseat.
Jenny lost her shoes on the halfway. So there was no way for her to escape. The only thing she could
do now was to glare and pout.
"What do you want from me?" She asked with her big eyes blinking. Then she raised her leg and put it
on Luke's chest to keep him from getting any closer.
Luke grabbed the slender foot and slowly squeezed, and then he leaned down. Jenny's legs were split
up and put on his shoulder.
The position was too erotic. Moreover, Jenny was wearing nothing but underwear inside the down
jacket. As her legs were stretched, the smoothy skin was as fair as the brightest full moon.
Luke's big hands slid from her ankles to her thighs, and his breath was on her ear. He answered, "It's
your call."
Jenny gritted her teeth. She was too shy to raise her head. She wanted to hide her blushing face in the
car seat as deep as possible.
The car trembled and the door was opened.
"Luke... you..."
Tom's rough voice interrupted the romantic vibe in the car. Within shorter than a flash, Luke pulled
down the down jacket on Jenny's waist and covered her legs. Then he threw a blanket on her, casting
a glare at Tom.
"I... I see nothing... you guys continue..."
Just as Tom was about to leave, Luke snorted, "Get in the car, let's go home."
Tom looked so embarrassed. He didn't dare to look back on their way home. The minivan darted on the
road like a racing car. Tom tried to reach the destination as soon as he could so as to get away from
the awkwardness.
