Chapter 1348 - Xue Yang Exploded

1348 Xue Yang Exploded And today’s opening ceremony…

Everyone had their eyes fixed on the man in the center.
He stood by Lin Che’s side. Lin Che did not say anything because that spot would be taken by the lead male character on normal days. Even if the lead male did not arrive, it would be for other important roles. Today, that spot was given to him and this was weird for the others.
In addition, he was really suave…
Everyone could not help but talk about it, speculating about who he was and why Lin Che seemed to pay a lot of attention to him.
All the way until they returned home.
Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze.

But you’ve gone over to acting. Can you act?

Gu Jingze asked,
Isn’t it just standing there and talking?


How can that be?
Lin Che said,
Come come, I’ll teach you.

She crossed her legs and took the script for him to look at.
Gu Jingze asked,
You want to teach me acting?


Of course. I’m the boss now. I can’t watch and let you botch up.

He adjusted his posture as she spoke. When she went over, she said,
Come, this paragraph. Let’s try and act it out.


Okay.

Gu Jingze smiled and sat down.

First, read this paragraph of lines.


I’ve been around everywhere and only wish for a farmer’s life in this lifetime, not caring anything about the outside world, the three realms, anyone, or anything. Nothing can disturb my peace…

The character was an elegant fairy and his words carried strength.
So the expressions to follow also had to be of strength.
It would be best if there were strong emotions, allowing people to feel a sense of fulfillment and be refreshed.
However, with Gu Jingze looking at Lin Che gently, it made one feel great love…
No no, the mood was not right.
Lin Che shook her head.
Hey, your look isn’t right. Change.


How’s it wrong?
Gu Jingze asked.

This character is a higher-ranked deity, a powerful and mighty immortal. There are no expressions or feelings. He only wants to fly as he pleases.


Really? I was thinking the same.


Thinking? Look at your expression. It’s not right.


Is that so? But when I look at you, I think I can only have this expression.


…

Thank goodness she did not have many scenes with him.

Then let’s move on to the next paragraph…


Alright then.


Ah, wrong, wrong. You’re too stiff with your movements.


Isn’t it less walking?


You have to walk with a sense of pride.


Aren’t I doing that?


Absolutely not!

Gu Jingze’s stiffness left Lin Che with no words.

Gu Jingze, I’ve decided. You’re more suited to stand at a side and not move.


Then how am I supposed to act?


What’s there to act? Just stand and be part of the background. Anyway, if enough people see your face, you can just sell your face and not say anything.


But I…


Stop talking!

Lin Che watched as he became solemn without a word. She was pleased and nodded her head.
Ah, he was like a piece of art. Just standing there was good enough to look at. He did not need to use words to express anything.
Alright, since he could not act, it shall be so.
Lin Che thought sadly that she would have a talk with the director the next day and change his role.
—
At that moment, Lin Che’s phone rang. She was informed that Xue Yang had gotten hurt overseas.
Lin Che got Gu Jingze to continue reading the script while she hurried out to handle the matter.
Xue Yang was hurt.
In addition, the part where he got hurt was his face.
When this piece of news came to be known… Tension gripped the entire company.
How did it become so? How did he get hurt, and of all places, his face?
Lin Che hurried over to ask. Yu Minmin showed some photographs to Lin Che and said,
They said it was an explosion scene. He really put in too much effort. He didn’t use a stunt double and got himself on. The blast came. Look at this face.

A shocking face of flesh and blood.

What happened?
Lin Che’s heart broke.
Yu Minmin replied,
It’s the area around his eyebrows that got hurt. The corner of his mouth and his ears too. This side of the face got more damage. The photographs are a little scary but the injuries aren’t that major. However… I think with wounds like these, there will be scars.

Lin Che sighed. An actor’s face was very important.

His body? What about other areas?


His arms are injured with superficial wounds. His body is fine, just some bleeding. He’s recuperating.

Lin Che had not expected that he would push himself so hard in Hollywood.
Yu Minmin said,
They’ve arranged for him to rest over there. I’m preparing to head over and have a look.


I’ll go.
Lin Che said,
With your identity, it’s too dangerous to leave the country.

No matter what, she was the president’s wife. It was dangerous to just leave the country on a whim.

But you just started filming over here. If you leave, they may just go straight into the filming when you return. How are you going to cope?


I’ll go make arrangements now. It’ll only be a few days. It’s alright.

Yu Minmin sighed and looked at Lin Che.
You too, you’re pushing yourself too hard.

Lin Che smiled.
She looked out. Her pictures and posters were plastered along the company’s corridor.
From a small-time actress to a present superstar. So many years had passed, and deep down, she had also made some sighs.
She said,
Although sometimes I feel very tired or unhappy, I feel like giving up and feel like I don’t have to be that tired. In the vast woods, there’s someone living alone, planting his own flowers and vegetables, away from neighbors, toiling from day to the night. He’s also living life as it is and he won’t starve. Sometimes, I think about having such a life too. However, after some thoughts, there are some things I can’t give up on. Such as acting and challenges. Now, money is just a figure to me. It doesn’t matter how much I earn but I do like seeing those numbers rise because it’s not about the accumulation of wealth. It’s about my efforts, the results of my efforts.

Yu Minmin looked at Lin Che and felt she was a different Lin Che from the past. She was elevated.
She had better qualities too.
Lin Che said,
So, no matter how tired I am, I will persevere. Because I don’t know what else I can do if not acting. Maybe I could be a socialite but without acting, I won’t feel like there’s meaning to life. I feel that whatever joy I have, it’s from acting. The process of it is the most wonderful part. Managing the company too. The busy process gives a sense of achievement. So, you don’t have to feel that I’m very tired. I’m tired, but I’m also happy. I’m even more so fortunate…. To meet you guys, to share happiness, fun, and woes.

Yu Minmin hugged Lin Che upon hearing her words.

Me too. Working hard with you guys has made me very happy. Happier than any other things. I think it’s the same for Xue Yang. That’s why he’s working so hard.
