The film crew gave Ning Huanxin and Zhang Yan two black silk robes. Even though they were chest-hugging, the team specifically chose it in black, considering that both were newcomers and were going underwater. The black material would prevent them from accidentally revealing too much, guaranteeing ‘safe’ filming.
It was nighttime, and the temperature was as cold as the water.
At the riverside, lights were shining as the props team did its last set-up for the background. The lighting engineers and photographers were all on standby.
“Sister Ning, I’m very nervous right now!”
In the makeup tent, Zhang Yan’s makeup was already done, and she grabbed onto Ning Huanxin’s hand, her nervousness making her palm sweat.
“Don’t be scared.”
Ning Huanxin held Zhang Yan’s hand and said, “We have rehearsed during the daytime, right? There’s nothing to worry about. I can rehearse with you again later when it’s our turn.”
Before Ning Huanxin finished speaking, the curtain at the tent’s entrance was lifted, revealing Qin Su’s tall figure.
“Brother Qin!”
Ning Huanxin respectfully greeted Qin Su.
At that point in time, Zhang Yan seemed to get increasingly nervous. She stared at Qin Su but could not utter a word.
The duo maintained eye contact for a few seconds.
Qin Su suddenly gave a gentle smile and said, “Little Yan, you’re done with the makeup? You look pretty. Since this is your first time acting, are you nervous? Come, let me take you out for a walk. I will rehearse with you.”
“Okay,” Zhang Yan hesitantly agreed to Qin Su as she retrieved her hand from Ning Huanxin’s grip.
“Sister Ning, I… We will go out first.”
“Okay, go ahead! With Brother Qin’s help, I’m sure you’ll be fine!”
Seeing the duo’s departing figures, Ning Huanxin could not help but smile in front of the mirror. Actually… It was her first time acting for such an important role. Although… she knew that was not true, but…
Sister, I’m still very nervous!
Holding on to Zhang Yan’s hand, Ning Huanxin’s heart was also seeking some kind of comfort. But now she was alone.
“Brother Qin treats newbies well.”
The makeup artist could not help but comment softly. Hearing her words, Ning Huanxin nodded and said, “Yes, Brother Qin is famous in the entertainment circle for being a helpful senior.”
“Yup. By the way, Brother Jiang is not bad either, Sister Ning.”
Speaking of Jiang Lixing, the makeup artist suddenly gave Ning Huanxin an ambiguous smile, implying unspoken romance. “I heard that Brother Jiang brought Sister Ning here. You must know him very well?”
Ning Huanxin entered the film crew after Jiang Lixing. Later, when people asked about her background, Jiang Lixing casually said he brought Ning Huanxin into the team.
For the past few days, Jiang Lixing and Ning Huanxin were spotted together a few times, a sight everyone in the team noticed.
Jiang Lixing was still a newbie in the entertainment world. Though he had yet to have many productions and was not as popular as Qin Su, he was able to frequently appear on the news and made himself known.
Many small-scale media outlets claimed that Jiang Lixing was a playboy from Yan Jing (present-day Beijing-capital of China), had a powerful background. Therefore, no one dared to offend him in the entertainment world.
Since Ning Huanxin and Jiang Lixing were together, their relationship was enough to generate much gossip.
The water in the entertainment circle was like a dark and deep well. Who knew what kind of dealing the duo had?
**
Hearing the mention of Jiang Lixing from the makeup artist, Ning Huanxin could not help but smile in the front of the mirror. She was a hopeless fan of the actor Jiang Lixing.
Even though the Jiang Lixing, she knew ten years before and after, had different personalities.
But both had the same gorgeous face that made women drool.
