What kind of nonsense is this about a college dropout from Beijing Film Academy being reborn as Bian

Chapter 11: Fallen Flowers Have Intentions

"Scene 84 of Tiny Times, Shot 2, First Scene—"

"Action!"

The camera slowly zooms in.

With the soft light filter applied, the entire image was bathed in a warm, honey-like hue.

Guan Shengbai lay on the white sheets, while Guo Biting, wearing a bathrobe, lay on her side in his arms.

The two people in front of the camera are facing each other, their noses almost touching, so close that they can feel each other's breath.

Guo Biting looked at the man in front of her, feeling the rhythm of his chest rising and falling with his breath, and could even smell the faint scent of his cologne mixed with his body heat.

Her heart seemed to skip a beat, and then it began to race.

"Card!"

The executive director's voice rang out.

"Bi Ting, your expression is too stiff! Relax! You are Nan Xiang now, and the person you love most is lying next to you. You should be looking at him, not staring blankly!"

Guo Biting took a deep breath and nodded.

After giving the two a moment to prepare, the director began the second round of clapping.

Guan Shengbai remained lying there, one arm around her waist and the other caressing her cheek.

His fingers seemed a little cold, and the moment they touched her skin, Guo Biting's eyelashes trembled slightly.

"Look at me."

Guan Shengbai said in a low voice, so softly that only she could hear it.

Guo Biting looked up at him.

The moment she met those phoenix eyes, the string of "reason" in her mind snapped with a "clang".

Because the man's eyes seemed to hold a bottomless vortex that easily sucked her soul into them.

Guo Biting felt as if she were soaking in a pool of warm water, and her whole body felt limp.

With each inch his fingers moved away, a fine tremor would rise from his skin.

The director of photography nodded repeatedly behind the monitor, and the assistant director forgot to call "cut."

The entire set was so quiet that it seemed only the buzzing of the cameras could be heard.

In front of the camera, Guan Shengbai stood up slightly and looked down at Guo Biting.

The backlighting accentuated the smooth lines of his shoulders and neck, and the muscle texture below his collarbone seemed to shimmer slightly in the warm light.

Guo Biting looked up at him, her eyes slowly welling up with a thin layer of tears.

She reached out her hand and gently touched his chest with her fingertips, a gesture that conveyed an almost devout infatuation.

This is not Nanxiang looking at Xicheng.

Instead, it was Guo Biting who was looking at Guan Shengbai.

......

......

There was no eye contact or action in the script!

The assistant director finally came to his senses and was about to yell "cut" when Guo Xiaosi, standing to the side, waved his hand with a hint of excitement in his eyes, signaling for filming to continue!

Because at this moment, the scene on the monitor seemed to be "carved out" bit by bit from the scene he had imagined in his mind, and then placed in front of him without any warning.

The two people in the shot still don't have a single line of dialogue.

But in their eyes, the love between them surged like a spring tide.

Every micro-expression tells the same story...

I love you.

I admire you.

I need you.

The sensible photographer zoomed in for a close-up shot, capturing the glimmer of tears welling up in Guo Biting's eyes in the center of the frame.

"Card!!"

Guo Xiaosi finally called a halt.

He stood up and, unusually, led the applause.

"Excellent! Biting performed exceptionally well today!"

Guo Biting, whose acting skills have always been the weakest link, seemed to ignore Guo Xiaosi's high praise.

At this moment, her fingers were still on Guan Shengbai's chest, and she could even clearly feel his steady and powerful heartbeat. As she rubbed against him, she seemed to feel a thin layer of sweat.

It was hard to tell whether the sweat belonged to the burning heat of a man's chest or the restlessness in a woman's palm.

It wasn't until Guan Shengbai gently grasped her wrist that he pulled her hand away from his body.

"Teacher Guo, this one is approved."

His voice was gentle and restrained, with just the right amount of detachment.

Guo Biting then seemed to wake up from a dream, and withdrew her hand as if she had been burned.

She watched as Guan Sheng nimbly rolled out of bed, took the bathrobe handed to him by his assistant, and put it on. His movements were fluid and effortless, seemingly without a trace of lingering attachment.

Then she sat there, hugging her knees, and finally buried her burning cheeks in her palms.

"Biting, you really—"

Xie Yilin rushed over excitedly, wanting to praise her, but she froze when she saw her expression.

Are you alright?

"fine."

Guo Biting raised her head and revealed a faint smile.

"It's just that I'm a little... too immersed in the role."

......

......

Guan Shengbai knew, of course, that it wasn't because he was too immersed in the role.

He sat in a chair in the rest area, staring silently at the panel in front of him.

Name: Guo Biting

Fate: None

Favorability: 65%

Strategy level: 45%

Those with peach-red eyes have a stirring in their hearts...

Again.

He pinched the bridge of his nose and thought carefully. In the past few days, he had indeed had many more scenes with Guo Biting.

Of course, there were also scenes where the two locked eyes.

Guan Shengbai leaned back, and the corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously.

It can only be said that when people are speechless to a certain extent, they can actually laugh.

I feel like I'm some kind of human aphrodisiac.

......

......

Meanwhile, on the other side of the film set.

Guo Caijie held her cup of Americano, which had gone completely cold, and watched the entire scene from beginning to end.

She saw the look in Guo Biting's eyes when she looked up at Guan Shengbai, and thought about the way Guan Shengbai gently held Guo Biting's wrist.

Watch them gaze at each other in front of the camera, touch each other, and even breathe together.

Finally, Guo Caijie lowered her head and took a sip of her coffee.

For some reason, this cup of coffee suddenly seemed a bit more bitter than before.

Or rather, ever since Xie Yilin said those words last night, this vague bitterness has lingered in her chest, refusing to dissipate.

Guo Caijie placed the cold coffee on the table, looking at her distorted reflection in the cup, but a sense of unease welled up inside her that she couldn't quite explain.

It's like...

The candy she was just hesitating about whether to reach for it was taken away right in front of her before she could even make a decision.

The thought startled her for a moment, then she quickly banished it from her mind.

Guan Shengbai did not notice Guo Caijie's gaze from the corner.

Because he's already come to terms with it, and he's just going to do whatever he wants.

At worst, we can just replicate Uncle Bo's nine-word mantra: "Don't take initiative, don't refuse, don't take responsibility."

So at this moment, he was already planning something else.

That means my scenes are almost finished, with only a few background scenes left, and I can wrap up filming in three days at most.

I need to start thinking about how my career as an actor should develop going forward.

Moreover, he could no longer continue to "play both sides" between Zeng Jia and Chai Zhiping.

Just then, his phone rang.

When Guan Shengbai took out his phone, a name that was both familiar and unfamiliar appeared on the screen.

Chen Bing.
