Chapter 268 The male lead needs to consider it.

Su Wuli pretended not to hear and sat down in front of the dressing table.

Sister Zhou picked up a powder puff and started applying foundation to her face.

She patted her face with a powder puff twice, and then Su Wuli's gaze drifted from the mirror toward Yu Chen.

Yu Chen had already sat down on the chair next to him, without the slightest restraint or discomfort.

After muttering that under her breath, Sister Zhou began her makeup routine.

After finishing her makeup, Su Wuli went to the scene.

Sister Zhou tidied up the brushes in the dressing room, put the lids on the powder boxes scattered on the table one by one, and put them into the box.

Carrying the suitcase, I pushed open the door.

The lights in the hallway were dimmer than when she arrived.

Another makeup artist happened to walk over from the opposite side, carrying two cups of coffee.

"Hey, did you just finish doing Ms. Su's makeup?"

The makeup artist came over and handed her a cup of coffee.

"Hmm." Sister Zhou took the drink and sipped it, then lowered her voice, "Guess who she brought today?"

The other person raised an eyebrow, waiting for her to continue.

Sister Zhou leaned closer and lowered her voice even further.

"He brought a bodyguard, dressed in ancient costume, wearing a mask, only his eyes were visible."

As she spoke, her tone carried the surprise of someone who had encountered a rare species.

"That figure and the aura she exudes when she stands there... I'm telling you, I've been doing makeup for so many years, and I've never seen anything like it."

The other makeup artist, holding a cup of coffee, didn't respond, but instead slowly took a sip after lifting the lid.

"You didn't check Weibo last night?"

Sister Zhou was taken aback for a moment, "No, I was too tired last night and went to bed a long time ago."

"Last night, Teacher Su went on a variety show. Teacher Su's...you mean, a bodyguard?"

The makeup artist took another sip of coffee, looked into Sister Zhou's eyes, and waited for two seconds.

Once she was sure she really didn't know, she sighed and continued, "What bodyguard? That's her boyfriend."

As soon as she finished speaking, Sister Zhou's coffee cup froze in mid-air, her lips agape for a long time.

"No wonder." She patted her forehead. "I've seen so many male celebrities, all kinds of looks, but that one just now..."

She paused for a moment when she recalled that scene.

"I've never seen such good conditions before."

Another makeup artist laughed, picked up her coffee cup, and walked to the other end of the corridor, but turned back after taking a couple of steps.

"By the way, you just said he was her bodyguard, did Su Wuli really say that?"

Sister Zhou nodded. "Teacher Su said he likes cosplay."

The corridor fell silent for a moment.

As soon as she finished speaking, another makeup artist laughed, "Cosplay, hahaha, okay, if she says so, then so be it."

"Now that you mention it, the two really do look like a perfect match," Sister Zhou couldn't help but sigh.

"The vast majority of netizens share the same thoughts as you."

……

When Su Wuli entered the filming area, the wind had picked up a bit more at night.

The studio lights shone brightly, illuminating the entire ancient costume set as if it were daytime.

A few jewels glittered slightly under the light in her neatly styled hair.

Yu Chen followed behind her.

The staff members gathered in twos and threes, their eyes fixed on the two of them ever since Su Wuli appeared.

Someone is looking at their phone, and the screen still shows that blurry side profile screenshot that's trending on social media.

It's confirmed that it's the same person.

Someone pretended to be busy with their work, but their peripheral vision kept drifting in that direction.

A stagehand carrying a roll of electrical wire walked by and almost tripped over it.

The director stood behind the monitor, holding the script and discussing the scene with the cinematographer.

He caught something out of the corner of his eye, and stopped talking halfway through.

His gaze shifted from the monitor to the man in black behind Su Wuli.

The director's gaze lingered on him for three seconds, then he slowly frowned, looking somewhat puzzled.

His lips twitched slightly, and he couldn't help but think to himself.

Which role did this actor play?

With such outstanding qualifications, he couldn't possibly have forgotten them.

He rolled up the script, held it in his hand, took a step forward, and then stopped.

Seeing the director's expression, Su Wuli quickly stepped forward, a helpless smile on her face.

With a hint of guilt, he said, "Director, this is my bodyguard."

The director paused for a moment, glancing at her and then at Yu Chen.

His gaze darted back and forth between the two of them several times.

He opened his mouth, then closed it again.

He simply couldn't equate this man dressed in ancient costume and wearing a mask with the word "bodyguard".

"Bodyguard?" he repeated, his tone clearly unconvinced.

Su Wuli nodded.

The director glanced at Yu Chen again.

Yu Chen didn't look at him; his gaze remained fixed on Su Wuli.

The director held the script in his hand, squeezing it repeatedly.

His lips moved several times, but in the end he only said, "Okay."

He turned around, walked back behind the monitor, sat down, and picked up the walkie-talkie.

Filming begins.

After the director yelled "Cut," the set fell silent.

Su Wuli walked back to the monitor from in front of the camera.

The director stared at the playback on the screen, made a few points, and then looked away from the screen.

I subconsciously looked up and glanced to the side.

Yu Chen stood to the side.

The director's gaze lingered on him, unable to move.

The playback on the screen had been paused for a long time, and the image was frozen on Su Wuli's profile.

He looked at Yu Chen's black ancient costume and his posture.

He's been in this industry for twenty years and has seen countless actors, both formally trained and untrained.

He thought he had seen all types.

But he couldn't even see the man's face clearly.

It's that aura, that makes people unable to look away just by standing there and doing nothing.

The entertainment industry desperately needs this kind of talent.

The director tapped his finger on the touchpad, restarting the playback, then stopping it again.

Su Wuli walked over, holding a script in her hand.

Noticing the director's gaze, she slowed her pace slightly.

The director looked up at her, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke.

"Misty Pear, is your bodyguard interested in acting?"

Upon hearing this, Su Wuli didn't react for a moment.

Although this is not the first time I have received an invitation from Yu Chen.

But Su Wuli never imagined what he would be like as an actor.

Before she could answer, the director's gaze had already passed over her and landed on Yu Chen.

Yu Chen seemed to know that his identity was not good for him to be too conspicuous, so he did not say a word at the scene.

The director couldn't resist taking out a business card from his pocket and handing it to Yu Chen.

"This is my business card. I have a new project here, but the male lead hasn't been cast yet. You can consider it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Chen frowned slightly.

My gaze lingered on that business card for a moment.

She parted her lips slightly and said, "Not interested."
