Chapter 123 The Controlling Actor 5 (2/2)

She was wearing a simple white T-shirt and jeans, her hair was casually tied in a ponytail, and her makeup was very light, which made her features look exceptionally beautiful.

She was listening intently to the director's instructions, nodding occasionally, her eyelashes casting a small shadow in the sunlight.

Mo Jinnian clutched his chest, stunned.

Has he seen her somewhere before?

He must have seen them before, otherwise why would his heart suddenly race?

What role does she play?

Do you have any scenes with him?

Hesitantly staring in that direction, Mo Jinnian finally put down his coffee cup, intending to stand up and go over to say hello.

Before he could even get up, Teacher Zhao had already turned and walked towards the dressing room, not even sparing him a glance.

Mo Jinnian: "...???"

Mo Jinnian doesn't consider himself a narcissistic person, but he is indeed rarely ignored.

Especially since the other party is a female character with whom he might have some interaction!

Logically, they should have familiarized themselves with the script beforehand, or at least rehearsed a scene, right?

But this Teacher Zhao acted as if she didn't even know he existed, not even glancing at him once!

Why?

Mo Jinnian took out his phone, turned on the selfie function, and carefully examined his face. His makeup wasn't heavy, so he was sure she could recognize him.

Is he not good-looking?

"Brother Mo, Zhao Zixi is here... I heard she's the female lead!!"

The assistant, carrying a bowl of soup, rushed over to deliver the message.

Everyone knows about Zhao Zixi and Mo Ge's affair now!

Does Brother Mo know?

"Zhao Zixi? You mean that Teacher Zhao from earlier?"

Mo Jinnian looked serious.

"Yes!"

The assistant nodded, a sense of "I knew it" running through his mind. It seemed Brother Mo knew that the female lead was Zhao, with whom he had been rumored to be dating...

“Zi Xi, Xi Xi…this name is so beautiful.”

"She's the female lead, which means she has scenes with me."

Mo Jinnian quickly flipped through the script, studying each line carefully. He was somewhat disappointed when he didn't find the plot he wanted.

It's supposed to be a romance drama set in the Republican era, so why is it all fighting and not a single kissing scene?

The assistant looked strange. If it weren't for the fact that Brother Mo didn't like being touched, he would have reached out and touched Brother Mo's forehead. Was he running a fever or had he lost his mind?

At first, Mo Jinnian attributed Zhao Zixi's indifference to her professional attitude, until the first fight scene was filmed.

"Teacher Zhao, you need to tone it down a bit in this scene..."

Before he could finish speaking, a sharp gust of wind swept towards his face.

Mo Jinnian hastily blocked the attack, his forearm going numb from the impact.

If he hadn't trained with special forces instructors since childhood, that kick would have been enough to send him to the hospital.

"Cut! Perfect!"

"That's the kind of realistic, visceral feeling we want!"

Director Xu shouted excitedly, completely ignoring whether Mo Jinnian lived or died.

In the break room, the assistant's hands were trembling as he held the ice pack: "Brother Nian, your back is completely purple!!"

How are they going to explain this to their boss, Brother Li?!

Mo Jinnian examined his injuries in the mirror and suddenly chuckled.

He didn't get hit in the face, so it seems Teacher Zhao is quite satisfied with his looks.

He touched the bruises on his chest, as if admiring some medal of honor.

He liked her even more because of her serious work attitude.

But soon the smile on Mo Jinnian's lips gradually froze, and he could no longer smile.
