Chapter 840: Marriage Before Love (9)
Translator: Lordbluefire
Just as the male lead was about to lean in for the kiss, a furious shout suddenly echoed, “What are you doing?!”
The male lead abruptly paused, and the entire set fell silent in an instant. Everyone turned their heads in unison to look at Chu Tianye.
Even the director furrowed his brows, ready to scold, but when he saw it was Chu Tianye next to Lu Cheng, his words got stuck and didn’t come out.
Frowning, he coughed slightly and said, “Um, Mr. Lu, what are you guys doing?”
Lu Cheng also glanced at Chu Tianye and twitched the corner of his mouth. The young boss was quite innocent.
But it made sense when you thought about it. Chu Tianye had probably just gotten married and was still savoring the taste of marriage. How could he allow his wife to be intimate with another man right in front of him?
He coughed and continued, “What kind of audience is this drama intended for?” The director responded, “…Everyone!”
Lu Cheng chimed in, “As of now, our domestic TV dramas haven’t been categorized by ratings. These intimate scenes might not be suitable. We don’t want to influence children with such content.”
The director,”??”
Their TV drama only had three kissing scenes in total, a kiss to signify a commitment, a kiss of deep love, and a kiss of farewell. They all carried symbolic meanings. They didn’t even have explicit romantic scenes, and now they couldn’t even shoot a simple kiss?
The director furrowed his brows and looked at Lu Cheng. Seeing that Lu Cheng didn’t seem too upset, he wanted to persist, “Mr. Lu, you see, these three kissing scenes are integral to the storyline’s progression…”
“Three?” Chu Tianye couldn’t help but exclaim. He thought there was only one, but the drama actually had three kissing scenes?
He hadn’t even kissed his bride yet!!
Chu Tianye grew even more irritated. “No way!”
The director,”??”
Everyone paused. Even Su Yan didn’t understand, looking at them in astonishment.
What was wrong with this guy?
Weren’t he and Lu Cheng a couple? Then why did he seem jealous now…?
Su Yan furrowed her brows.
Could it be…?
Suddenly, a lightbulb went off in her mind.
This was possessiveness, like the rumors said?! Even if he didn’t love her, he wanted to possess her, to prevent her from getting close to other men…
Su Yan started to imagine.
But Chu Tianye was unaware of her thoughts. He was tangled up inside. Regardless of anything, he couldn’t accept this!
Just as he was struggling, someone suddenly pushed his shoulder. Lu Cheng pushed him into the scene and said to the director, “Director, it’s okay if you want to shoot the kissing scene. I think the chemistry between the male and female leads isn’t intense enough. There could be more of that shy feeling. Here’s an idea—let the person next to me try it. If it works, you can let him be the male lead’s stand-in for the kiss.”
The director,
Male lead, …While he was pretty big in the industry, it wasn’t to the extent of being a kiss stand-in.
However, the big boss was present, and he was the one speaking. With absolute controlling power and a significant investment in the drama, who could defy him?
No one.
So, quickly enough, Chu Tianye was dragged into a makeup room by a makeup artist. He had to wear a wig, put on clothes, and go through about two hours of transformation before he was pushed out of the makeup room.
The kissing scene was skipped, and a few other scenes were reshot to capture all the male and female lead scenes.
When Chu Tianye emerged, Su Yan’s eyes lit up upon seeing him.
This man was just too good-looking. With this appearance, he completely overshadowed the male lead’s charm.
Everyone on set looked over, even the director’s eyes lit up. He even subconsciously asked, “Sir, are you interested in entering the entertainment industry?”
Upon hearing this, Su Yan looked at him expectantly.
Chu Tianye, “Not interested.”
Just as expected!
After all, he was Lu Cheng’s lover. Why would he care about the meager earnings in the entertainment industry?!
Su Yan became even more convinced of her speculations!
So, when Chu Tianye stepped into the scene, looking a bit timid, Su Yan spoke up, “Don’t be nervous. Just think of it as kissing a piece of tofu. After all, we’re good sis… bros!”
Chu Tianye,”…”
God, bros?! We’re different genders, come on!!
He twitched his mouth and approached Su Yan. He found the stand-in position for the male lead.
Both of them adjusted their positions as before. When the director shouted “Action,” Chu Tianye slowly lowered his head.
Su Yan felt the warmth of his breath, and inexplicably, she thought about what happened this morning. Her cheeks flushed instantly.
This shy feeling was even more natural and genuine than before.
Nervously, Chu Tianye swallowed a gulp of saliva and lowered his head once again, gently covering her soft lips….
