The scene ended, and Su Yebai was extrely satisfied.
The emotions, expressions, and actions of all three actors were right on point.
When Gu Zhengming looked at Tong Xi, his eyes held an indescribable depth of emotion - unclear, yet conveying his restraint.
As for Yunqing, with a squint of the eyes, a raise of the eyebrow, a curl of the lips, he exuded all manner of charm, yet concealed layers of emotion. In the flicker of his eyes, he depicted Shangguan Xuanyue’s endlessly complex thoughts perfectly.
As for Tong Xi, when she saw Yunqing being stabbed by the sword... that shock and pain were so genuinely felt.
And when she angrily confronted Situ Shuo, her face showed nothing but desolation and determination.
For a mont, Su Yebai genuinely felt these three weren’t acting! It was as if a narrative of love, hatred, and mutual destruction was being genuinely acted out.
As soon as the scene was over, Tong Xi imdiately pushed Yunqing away and confronted Su Yebai:
"Director, the plot of this scene was changed, why didn’t you tell beforehand!"
Tong Xi was genuinely angry; she had been truly frightened when Gu Zhengming’s sword ca thrusting at her.
But that’s not how the script went. In the script, Shangguan Xuanyue was supposed to win the fight against Situ Shuo and succeed in taking Mu Qingli away.
Yet this scene... ended up with Shangguan Xuanyue getting injured.
Damn it, this change is too outrageous!
Su Yebai smiled mysteriously, "Tong Xi, don’t you think... this change makes it more fitting for Shangguan Xuanyue’s modus operandi?"
Tong Xi: "..."
The director made sense; this change did seem more in line with Shangguan Xuanyue’s unpredictable nature. He was indeed using a self-sacrificial tactic to force Mu Qingli to admit her feelings.
Well, okay... okay...
"The reason I didn’t tell you is because I wanted your performance... to be, um, more authentic!"
Tong Xi: "..."
Okay, she admitted that she was really scared then.
But none of the crew moved an inch; they each stayed in their places. In that instant, Tong Xi realized that the director changed the script...
Since the plot was changed, the original lines were useless, and at that mont, Tong Xi didn’t lose her composure. She could only follow her heart, say whatever ca to her mind!
Su Yebai patted Tong Xi on the shoulder.
"Your performance just now was great; you really do have potential!"
Tong Xi rubbed her forehead: "Director, weren’t you worried that I’d be stunned and ruin the whole scene?"
Su Yebai laughed heartily.
"I have confidence in the actors I choose!"
Listening to Su Yebai, Tong Xi didn’t know whether to cry or laugh.
At this ti, Yunqing also walked over and said to Su Yebai: "Director, this costu is wasted, right?"
Su Yebai: "..."
This costu, even if cleaned, Yunqing probably wouldn’t wear it again. Definitely wasted!
Tong Xi looked at the crimson on Yunqing’s chest and couldn’t help her eyelid twitching.
So he was in cahoots with Su Yebai to deceive her! Was this fun for them?
It was... too much!
That jerk, would telling her beforehand have killed him? They said that sword was a prop, but she was genuinely terrified, wasn’t she?
Thinking this, she couldn’t help but throw a punch at Yunqing’s chest.
"Yeah, you’ve got guts! Teaming up with the director to trick !"
Yunqing stepped back, covering his chest with his hand, pretending to be in pain.
"Hey, I’m already injured, can’t you be a little gentler?"
Yunqing’s smirking face filled Tong Xi with anger, but soon, she narrowed her eyes and started smiling.
"Oh, you want to be gentler? Alright then, co here!"
