【Abo】After Being Accidentally Tagged By Bingshan Movie King Chapter 3

Chapter 3 The Movie Star is Actually Him!

Shen Lingfeng couldn’t sleep the entire night before the 6th, so he simply got up early. At 8:30 AM on June 6th, he arrived at Dongjiao Film and Television City.

“You’re here?” Director Zheng coldly scrutinized him. “Our crew, apart from you, is almost entirely composed of experienced actors, and you didn’t even graduate from an arts academy… I hope you work hard and take this seriously. Even if you passed the audition, if you truly aren’t suitable, we can still replace you.”

“…Understood, Director Zheng.”

Shen Lingfeng felt slightly uncomfortable with this blatant look of disdain—didn’t you yourself let me pass? Why are you acting like I got in through some shady backdoor deal!

Since he was young, he had always been an outstanding student, scoring first place in every subject, the ‘child of others’ that parents compared their kids to. Combined with his handsome appearance and privileged family background, he was always like a shining pearl in a crowd. When had he ever been so openly disliked?

But he also knew that, stripping away his identity as the young master of the Shen family, he was now a complete newcomer in the entertainment industry and could only maintain a humble attitude.

“Movie Star Su is here!” Director Zheng’s previously cold gaze suddenly became several shades more eager as he looked past Shen Lingfeng.

Shen Lingfeng turned his head and felt as if he had been struck by a bolt from the blue—

The man slowly walking down the path that people automatically cleared for him was precisely the Alpha who had Marked him that night!

“Shen Lingfeng, is it?” Su Chenhui’s beautiful dark eyes now seemed to hold ten thousand years of ice. He looked Shen Lingfeng over as if he didn’t recognize him at all. “Act well. Don’t drag me down.”

“…” Shen Lingfeng’s heart twinged, though he attributed it entirely to the physiological reaction of his recently Marked body. Although Su Chenhui that morning hadn’t been overly enthusiastic, he was far less frigid than he was today.

Of course. In front of so many people, how could Movie Star Su let anyone know about his history of drunken indiscretion?

“I understand. I will try my best to play this role well,” Shen Lingfeng replied, keeping his tone as calm as possible.

“Oh, excuse me! Am I late?” A sharp, flamboyant voice suddenly rang out.

Shen Lingfeng followed the sound and saw a man who looked about his age, wearing a green striped shirt. His hair was slightly curly, and his appearance could be considered quite delicate.

“Brother Su, you’re already here?” The man in green smiled brightly at Su Chenhui, using an extremely intimate form of address. “Sorry for keeping you waiting. I was thinking it’s been a while since we last met, so I had to dress up nicely, and I accidentally took too long.”

“Mm.” Su Chenhui responded with only one icy word.

“Hello.” Shen Lingfeng, maintaining the humble attitude that everyone else was a senior in the industry, proactively stepped forward to greet him. “I am Shen Lingfeng…”

“I know, aren’t you one of the leads?” The man in green interrupted Shen Lingfeng. His attitude was clearly much colder than it had been toward Su Chenhui, and he seemed to want to vent the frustration of being snubbed just now. “Gu Yuxin. My role is Liu Man.”

Only then did Shen Lingfeng realize that the man before him was playing his romantic rival in the movie.

When the Narcissus Withers is a Republican-era film that tells a poignant and moving love story.

The Alpha in the film is Li Guoliang, the son of a great warlord, Commander Li. He himself has led troops and fought battles. He is utterly dominant, a young and promising marshal skilled in both military and literary arts.

The Omega in the film is the actor Bai Shuixian, a famous Peking Opera performer. On stage, every gesture exudes feminine charm, but in reality, he possesses a resilience tougher than that of ordinary men.

The two come from vastly different backgrounds. They endure the opposition of Li Guoliang’s father, Commander Li, and the obstruction of Liu Man, the woman Li Guoliang was designated to marry. After many twists and turns, they finally get together. But at this time, R Country launches a large-scale invasion of their nation, and Li Guoliang must lead his troops to fight alongside his father, dedicating himself to defending his homeland.

In the end, Li Guoliang dies on the battlefield. An R Country officer demands that Bai Shuixian sing for him, but the unyielding Bai Shuixian poisons himself to death.

After the victory of the war, Li Guoliang’s aging father, forced to bury his son, finally inters the young man and Bai Shuixian, whom he had never approved of, together forever.

Today, they were filming the first scene: the initial meeting between Li Guoliang and Bai Shuixian.

On this day, Li Guoliang listens to Bai Shuixian perform a play and is quite pleased, giving him a large sum of reward money. Bai Shuixian, in order to win over this major client, personally comes forward to offer a toast.

At this point, Bai Shuixian still only views Li Guoliang as a cash cow—a rich fool. He is focused on saving enough money to buy his freedom and establish his own opera troupe. Therefore, he acts with extreme charm in front of Li Guoliang, hoping to secure him as a long-term patron.

After all the actors and crew members were in position, Director Zheng gave the command:

“When the Narcissus Withers, Scene 1, Take 1, Action!”

Su Chenhui was sitting at a table having dinner with some friends. Shen Lingfeng, who had already removed his stage makeup and was dressed in simple white clothes, looking fresh and delicate, walked over gracefully, holding a glass of red wine.

“Come, I toast the Young Marshal.” Shen Lingfeng drained the wine in his glass, then offered Su Chenhui a captivating smile.

“Cut!”

Director Zheng called a stop, then looked sternly at Shen Lingfeng. “Do you remember what the script says? Bai Shuixian’s smile here must be utterly enchanting and seductive. Was your smile just now enchanting? Seductive? Could it hook someone?”

“…I apologize.”

Shen Lingfeng actually felt this scene was a difficult one, because he had to convey the feeling that would make Li Guoliang take one look and be stunned for eternity. Bai Shuixian’s external image at this time was sexy and alluring, but Shen Lingfeng was usually the proud one in relationships, with others chasing after him. When had he ever needed to actively flirt with someone?

“Can we try again? I will definitely do my best.”

“Go ahead,” Director Zheng nodded.

The prop master refilled a glass of red wine.

“Wait a moment.” Su Chenhui suddenly stepped forward and spoke. “Use a substitute drink.”

The crew had a special red beverage that looked almost identical to red wine. They had used real wine just now for the sake of realism.

“Ah, I don’t mind,” Shen Lingfeng said, not wanting to affect the final presentation of the film. “My tolerance is fine. One or two glasses won’t make me drunk.”

“Is that so?” Su Chenhui sneered, looking at Shen Lingfeng with a ‘how dare you say that’ expression. “If you drink and your state becomes compromised, you will delay the progress of the entire crew. Don’t show off unnecessarily.”

“…I understand.” Although the other party’s words were impolite, Shen Lingfeng felt he had a point and couldn’t argue back.

So, the red wine was replaced with the beverage.

“When the Narcissus Withers, Scene 1, Take 2, Action!”
