A Low Rank Female Goes Viral Across the Galaxy-Chapter 278: My Date with a Vampire Begins Filming

Chapter 278: Chapter 278: My Date with a Vampire Begins Filming

"My Date with a Vampire, Episode One, Scene One, action!"

At Wen Yu’s command, everyone on the set sprang into motion.

On set, Jiang Qin made her entrance, dressed in a Republican-era floral blouse with her hair in two thick braids.

She knelt before Mao Xiaofang’s tombstone, lighting incense and bowing.

"The world is in chaos, and monsters have appeared. Daoist Mao, the Zombie King Jiang Chen is about to reappear in the mortal realm. As the current heir of the northern Demon Exorcism Dragon Clan, I, Madonna, vow to eliminate Jiang Chen and carry on Daoist Mao’s legacy."

Paper money for the dead scattered and flew through the air.

"Okay, that’s a wrap on this take! Next scene, Long Hao, get ready!"

Long Hao appeared with a dark expression, dressed in the yellow official’s uniform of Republican-era Japan.

The two long strips of cloth hanging down from the hat on his head made him look particularly ridiculous at that moment.

Even the crew members watching from the side couldn’t help but snicker. "What do you think they were thinking in old-timey Japan?

How did they design such a sketchy-looking uniform?"

"I think so too. It’s a bit rude to talk about people from the past, but I really think this outfit, um... it looks a little sneaky."

Long Hao glanced coolly at the gossiping crew members, and they immediately fell silent.

It had to be said, the Third Prince had a powerful presence.

The opening scene of the first episode was finished quickly. By the afternoon, they were already filming the part where Kuang Tianyou, Su Zhenzhen, and Ma Xiaoling first meet in Japan and begin traveling together.

Unlike the smooth morning session, this part of the story was constantly being halted by the director.

Wen Yu frowned helplessly and said, "Third Prince, can you please control your gaze? Stop stealing glances at Miss Jiang!

You have to remember, your character’s early-stage ’ship’ is with Miss Xiong Shushuang. Right now, you should be treating everyone equally."

Long Hao was speechless. "...Would you believe me if I said I wasn’t peeking?"

Everyone on set fell silent.

Wen Yu gave an awkward cough. "Third Prince, there’s no need to lie to yourself, is there?"

"All I can say is, I’m not doing it on purpose. I just can’t control my instincts. I’ll do my best."

"Ahem, let’s continue."

After that, Long Hao’s gaze did indeed become much more restrained.

Mainly, because of the constant retakes, Jiang Qin seemed to be getting a little tired.

Once he got into character, they smoothly progressed to the scene where they capture the female ghost, Chuchun.

The female ghost wasn’t played by an actress; it was a holographic recording created by Jiang Qin. It was currently flying all over the room, letting out a maniacal laugh.

The scene made quite a few of the crew members panic.

It was mainly because the recording was too realistic.

The girl in the recording looked normal, but this flitting, ethereal figure in a white kimono was inexplicably sending shivers down everyone’s spines.

Finally, after a full day of shooting, everyone hurriedly packed up to go home.

Since they weren’t on a tight schedule, no one prepared to drink potions and pull an all-nighter like last time.

Before leaving, Wen Yu reminded him, "Third Prince, you have a kiss scene with Miss Jiang Qin tomorrow.

Will you be having one of Miss Jiang Qin’s partners act as a body double, or will you handle it with post-production effects?"

Hearing this, Long Hao blushed, his eyes darting around. "Ahem, how can you call that a kiss scene? It’s just passing a mouthful of water from one mouth to another.

You need a double for that? Besides, post-production looks so fake. I happen to be very professional."

Wen Yu was speechless. ’Then for that scene where you had to hold Miss Xiong Shushuang, who was it that insisted on a body double?’

’And who was it that refused to have any intimate contact with the supporting actress, no matter what?’

’So, this ’professionalism’ of his depends on who he’s with, does it?’

But even though she saw through Long Hao’s intentions, she still asked for Jiang Qin’s opinion.

Jiang Qin? Of course, Jiang Qin chose post-production.

’It’s passing water!’

’Even though the water wouldn’t actually go into my mouth, I really don’t want to take advantage of Long Hao again.’

’Last time could be called an accident, but doing it again would be intentional.’

...

Hearing her refusal, Long Hao looked dejected for a moment. ’Sigh... looks like there are no shortcuts after all.’

He wasn’t too disappointed, though. He had already guessed this would happen and even thought her refusal was a good thing.

’After all, if she won’t easily accept me, she won’t easily accept anyone else either!’

***

After returning home, Jiang Qin lazed in Lan Yuyan’s arms, letting him carry her as she washed up.

That night, after a round of passionate intimacy, they were so exhausted they slept until dawn.

The first thing she did after waking up early was check the newly refreshed items in the marketplace.

She had bought all three items that refreshed yesterday. It wasn’t that she needed them all, but her reputation value was still plentiful, so she bought them to have on hand.

There was a purchase limit of one paintbrush, ten grams of Star Sand, and for the last item, a dozen sheets of ordinary drawing paper, a purchase limit of 99.

The items that refreshed today were:

Shimmering Gold Stone * 1g

silver ore * 1g

Nephrite Jade * 1 piece

All of them had a purchase limit of 3, and as usual, Jiang Qin bought them all.

These were all materials needed for crafting jewelry components. She planned to think it over and make a gift for each of her partners.

However, she didn’t have enough materials yet, so she could only accumulate them slowly.

Sensing she was awake, Lan Yuyan, who had been awake for a while, simply held her tighter.

"I wish I could wake up to see my Qinqin every day."

Jiang Qin smiled. "But aren’t you going on a business trip to Gluttony Star next month?"

"Yeah. Ever since my Riot Value dropped, my father probably figured it out and just dumped everything on me before going on a trip with my mother."

Jiang Qin could understand. "After all, your main family has been in turmoil recently. It’s good for them to get away and avoid the trouble."

Lan Yuyan’s mother had no intention of competing with her sisters.

After all, her partners were all rich and powerful, and she already had enough wealth to live as she pleased.

Besides, her three sons had already inherited their respective fathers’ businesses. From the looks of it, simply maintaining what they had would be no problem.

As for Lan Yan, Lan Yuyan’s youngest brother, whom she disliked the most, she heard he had already left home.

However, Jiang Qin knew that Lan Yuyan was still in contact with him.

"Don’t worry about them. Let them fight it out themselves. We just need to live our own lives well," Lan Yuyan said gently.

"Mm."

...

After being lovey-dovey for a long while, the two finally went downstairs.

Downstairs, Yun Xie had already prepared breakfast. Long Hao was also at the dining table.

Seeing her radiant, peach-blossom-like complexion, he instantly felt a tightness in his chest, but Long Hao did his best to ignore the discomfort.

He said, feigning nonchalance, "I feel bad for always coming over to freeload for meals.

So today, I specially made some dessert and brought it over. I hope you like it."

That’s right. He was here today to redeem himself.

’He refused to believe that after spending all this time studying tirelessly, forgoing sleep and food, he still couldn’t master the simple art of cooking.’

When Jiang Qin saw the plate of small cakes on the table, she was genuinely surprised. She praised him, "These look delicious."

They were a delicate pink, shaped like flowers, and garnished with green leaves.

’What a difference a few days make.’
