After shooting started, Bo Yan kept reminding himself that he was acting.

As a professional actor, he naturally knew the difference between work and life. He had filmed similar scenes before, although they were not as physically close, but he still had some experience.

However, when Xia Siyu really sat on his lap, pressing down and entwining herself close to him, he found himself struggling to maintain control.

The first time they grappled, their bodies entwined, he stretched out his arm around her waist, forcefully twisting to the side. He was on top, she was beneath. At this point, pressing down further…

Bo Yan had kissed before, and this wasn’t his first time kissing Xia Siyu either. But perhaps it was because she looked particularly beautiful today, or maybe the presence of an audience added a different kind of thrill, or it could be that the characters in the script were meant to be a bit more desirous from the start. In any case, as seen through the monitor, he indeed appeared both active and passive, both enjoying and distancing.

The script didn’t specify how long they were to perform the scene or to what extent. Since it was a film, and not one explicitly taking the innocent route, the director didn’t call cut, so they certainly had to continue.

But unexpectedly, before even ten seconds had passed, the director shouted

“Cut! ”

Afterward, Xia Siyu immediately sat up, and he quickly backed away. The two of them moved apart as if their recent intimacy were just an illusory reflection. 𝚏𝚛ee𝐰𝗲𝚋n𝐨𝘃𝗲l.𝐜𝐨m

A movie scene often requires multiple takes, and it’s normal for the first attempt to need refinement. Especially since Wang Ju was aiming for a long take, anyone with even a little understanding of filmmaking would know how much effort it takes.

The two actors didn’t make a big deal out of it, instead asking the director, “Is there anything we need to improve?”

Wang Ju stepped forward, and with a serious tone of criticism said, “Siyu, your dancing earlier was good, so why did you stiffen up as soon as the action started? And Bo, you were too aloof at the beginning. You two are a couple, lovers, not strangers meeting for the first time, nor enemies. I don’t care about any conflicts you have off- screen, but in the film, you need to be more natural. This isn’t a photoshoot. When you’re holding her and kissing, show some movement. If she doesn’t, then you need to express it more.”

Bo Yan slightly bowed his head, and Xia Siyu frowned in thought before both nodded in agreement. Wang Ju continued, “l don’t care what you are like in private, but in the film, you have to follow the plot. Particularly you, Xia Siyu, you’re the one who gives more in the movie, so you definitely need to show more. Look at you now, not even glancing at your partner. How can you develop feelings like that?”

Using their full names was a clear sign that Wang Ju was serious. Xia Siyu nodded, turning to glance at Bo Yan. Bo Yan also happened to look up at the same moment, their eyes calm and undisturbed, devoid of emotion, let alone any hint of communication.

Wang Ju sighed, resigning himself to the fact that he impulsively chose Xia Siyu as the female support and needed to keep working on it.

Action was called again, and this time, perhaps out of nervousness, Xia Siyu messed up the dance moves, Cut!

Once more. They finally managed to make it to the edge of the bed, but then her high heel wobbled, and she fell straight on Bo Yan, Cut again.

Another attempt, this time they managed to kiss, but when rolling over, one went left and the other right, completely lacking any chemistry.

And so on, again and again….
