Chapter 537 - Boyfriend Charm to the Max
The main cast were all present, and to Yun Shishi’s surprise, she found Jun Mo on the set as well. She immediately greeted her with a smile. “Jun Mo, you are here, too.”
The latter smiled in return and said, “Eh. I was pulled over by Qin Zhou for a cameo appearance.”
“Which character?”
“The character name is ‘Su Qi’.” She thought for a while before she continued. “I just skimmed through the script last night, so I may not be familiar with the persona yet. It seems that this role has a few scenes with your character.”
In the script, Su Qi was Yin Xiachun’s first love, which was a male persona. Yun Shishi was somehow perplexed by this arrangement.
She examined Jun Mo from head to toe, and she had to admit that the latter fit the style and description of the character she was set to portray. Tall, slender, fashionable, and boyish – she had all the necessary criteria to be labeled as a pretty boy.
Still, it was rare to put a girl in a boy’s role.
Despite that, Jun Mo did not seem to mind at all. “I have no track record. Actually, this role was set for someone else, but Qin Zhou managed to wrangle it away for my sake. He wanted to carve an acting career for me.”
Her voice revealed a trace of guilt.
This boyish role was actually meant for a new male artiste, but in the end, it was given to a girl. This would definitely infuriate that boy who was initially selected.
Yun Shishi knew very well what she meant.
Their manager wanted this singer to go down the path of acting.
With good resources poured into it, ‘The Green Apple’ was set to be the next blockbuster movie. Many fresh faces hoped to debut through this film even if it was just a minor role or a cameo.
This singer could very well garner numerous fans with this character.
In the film industry, the youngsters were the biggest consumers. It so happened that teen flicks were Lin Fengtian’s specialty, and all his works were well-received.
Besides, it was worth mentioning that Su Qi was a very likable character in this film, so it was no wonder many newbies were eyeing it.
In the novel itself, this character was only second in favor to the male protagonist, Yin Dongyu. It went to show just how popular this character was.
Even Li Jiuxian was rejected for this role as his looks did not fit what Lin Fengtian had in mind.
This was a character who was handsome, gentle, sunny, and faithful. He was the ideal prince charming of every girl and had many touching scenes with Yin Xiachun in the script.
Notwithstanding her gender orientation, Jun Mo was indeed very suitable for this role.
The actress herself smiled and said, “I heard that there’s a kissing scene between Yin Xiachun and Su Qi in the movie. Shishi, you don’t mind giving your first on-screen kiss to me, right?”
Yun Shishi turned beet red on the face. With pouting lips, she smiled shyly and replied, “Have you really gone through the script? My first on-screen kiss isn’t with you.”
“Oh, really. I’m so disappointed…”
“Stop teasing me!”
The boyish woman seemed to be moved by the ethereal girl’s sweet smile for she unknowingly stretched out her hand to ruffle her head. “All right. I was just pulling your leg. Don’t take it for real.”
“Jun Mo, I must admit; you do have the boyfriend charm!”
That startled her and she quickly smiled. “Then, what do you think if I want to be your boyfriend? How about that?”
She leaned over and inched toward her ever so slightly. The gentle expression on her face was enough to melt any girl’s heart.
Yun Shishi could only stare at her face up close with her heart pounding wildly.
The singer light-heartedly chuckled in amusement at her embarrassed reaction. “Shishi, you are really adorable.”
“You really ought to stop teasing me!”
Qin Zhou walked over from behind and glared at them both. “The ceremony is about to start. You two should get in line!”
The two looked at each other and made a face before returning to their respective positions in the queue.
