Chapter 400
When she took a second look, she fell deeply into the gentle net that caught her in a trance, making her unable to escape.
Ye Zhi’s dark eyelashes trembled slightly, and in the next second, she closed her eyes.
Gu Ren leaned down gently.
Spring was cold and the Earth was proving a point as the chilly spring breeze blew through the silent grounds, but here, their world was ever so quiet, ever so warm.
The light silhouettes of the duo were dependent on each other. Their shadows were reflected on the ground, contrasting between light and dark, deep and shallow— like intertwined vines, they never parted.
After the conclusion of the ‘Perfect Partner’ program, Ye Zhi began to join the filming group. Ye Zhi practically started to live in the hotel that the filming group had rented out for her, so she went home fairly little nowadays.
In fact, Ye Zhi didn’t dare to go home. As Gu Ren was not by her side anymore, she ate less without his supervising gaze. At first glance, her body was so thin that it would make others feel distressed— as if a gust of wind could blow her away.
Ye Zhi knew that if Gu Ren and the others came to visit the shooting group, they would definitely worry about her.
At present, the makeup artist was putting on some light makeup for Ye Zhi. Due to the character she was playing, she only required a significantly lesser amount of touch-ups than normal.
The makeup artist frowned while helping Ye Zhi put on makeup, “Have you lost weight recently? I don’t think you need makeup to make you look frail anymore; you can go for the shooting directly”
Ye Zhi smiled at her and said nothing.
After the makeup was done, the shooting officially began.
In the dilapidated and small rental house, Ye Zhi sat on the sofa that was placed in the centre of the living room. She wore a small white T-shirt on her body, which seemed to also reflect the empty state of the room.
Ye Zhi sat there quietly with all her emotions gathered within her eyes.
Because she only sat there quietly, the air seemed to be still; it even made the others worry about whether the person in front of them was still breathing.
In the next second, Ye Zhi seemed to have remembered something. She reached out and stroked her long hair as the cuff of her shirt slipped halfway with her movement, revealing the slender and frail-looking wrist underneath.
Even though she merely raised her hand and turned her head to the side, she still didn’t seem to have a trace of any living emotions left in her eyes. Her aura of vitality seemed to have disappeared from her body as there was only an empty body of confusion left.
Director Zhao Shu, who was looking at the monitor, was staring at the screen without blinking at all.
He originally thought that Ye Zhi was just a female star that was full of scandals to her name.
Zhao Shu changed his mind about Ye Zhi for the first time during her audition because her performance made him very satisfied. In the end, he decided that Ye Zhi would be the female lead of the show.
After that, Ye Zhi’s performance surprised Zhao Shu even more. He could clearly see that Ye Zhi had done enough homework this time.
No matter in appearance or regarding her acting skills, Ye Zhi had completely immersed herself to become the female lead in his movie. Now, the role could only be played by her.
“Cut.”
Zhao Shu, who had always been strict, showed a satisfied smile as Ye Zhi’s performance in all aspects surprised him.
