In order to prepare for filming, Jiang Dao was sent back to the apartment by his assistant in the afternoon.
Fortunately, without Chu Yinlong around, Jiang Dao won’t think about doing bad things all the time either. He dug out the script and reviewed it earnestly for two days, and finally identified the contradictory aura of Little Gray Wolf in the early stage of the plot – the pretense of being innocent and pitiful, but in reality he was alienated from the world, with a deep desire for self-destruction buried in his heart.
Little Gray Wolf in this period is actually somewhat similar to when Jiang Dao first came to this world.
Painting themselves with protective colors to disguise themselves with those around them and hide their true selves, but in fact, they do not agree with everything around them, and everything they do is to survive in an unfamiliar environment.
It wasn’t difficult for Jiang Dao to find this state.
He only needs to imitate the state of mind he previously had, and can almost do it seamlessly.
So, on the day of the makeup photo shoot, when Chu Yinlong saw Jiang Dao again in the studio, his heart sank suddenly.
The young man in front of him reminded him of the first time they met. He could almost see Jiang Dao’s disdain for the world, as if he came from a tower that could destroy the world. Hidden behind his beauty and simple exterior is a dark, waveless, dangerous vortex that can devour everything.
The first time he saw him, Chu Yinlong knew that Jiang Dao would definitely be able to play Little Gray Wolf.
However, today’s experience terrified Chu Yinlong a little. He felt that Jiang Dao treated him like this world, and could abandon him at any time without looking back.
Jiang Dao felt his gaze and turned to look at Chu Yinlong.
The eyes of the two met, and Jiang Dao quickly turned his head and followed the stylist into the dressing room.
Feeling the welling panic in his heart, Chu Yinlong strode forward, raised his hand to block the dressing room, and said to the stylist: “I’m sorry, please go out first, I have something to say to Jiang Dao.”
The stylist didn’t know why Chu Yinlong’s expression wasn’t good, and left feeling a little scared.
Quickly locking the door of the dressing room behind him, Chu Yinlong stepped in front of Jiang Dao, stretched out his hand to squeeze Jiang Dao’s chin, lowered his head, and kissed Jiang Dao’s slightly cold lips.
Conquering, domineering, with a thin anger that came from nowhere, Chu Yinlong pressed Jiang Dao against the vanity mirror and kissed him for a long time, until he tasted a tinge of blood. Finally, he woke up from the dreamlike trance and got up.
Jiang Dao looked at Chu Yinlong, raised his hand and wiped the trace of blood from the corner of his lips.
“Why are you biting me?” He was a little dissatisfied. “I have to put on makeup in a while…”
Chu Yinlong’s heart hurt hearing the estrangement in his words.
“Xiao Dao…” Chu Yinlong’s voice was low, faintly trembling.
He raised his hand and stroked Jiang Dao’s cheek, but he didn’t know what to say next.
Jiang Dao pushed Chu Yinlong’s hand away.
Chu Yinlong suddenly panicked: “Xiao Dao!”
“Don’t do this.” Jiang Dao ducked to the side. “You, you stay away… I finally found the feeling of the character, if you do this again, I will… I can’t take it anymore.”
He raised his hand and rubbed his ears, his eyelashes drooping, and he spoke quickly: “Don’t make trouble for Director Mu, wait for the photos to be taken first. I’ll… come back to the villa with you today, okay? After not seeing me for two days, I know you must have missed me, but… don’t do this, I won’t be able to help it!”
Taking a step back, Chu Yinlong’s expression changed. “You …”
“What are you doing! Hurry out!” Jiang Dao interrupted, grabbing Chu Yinlong’s shoulder, turning him around, and pushing him to the door, “Get out, I’m going to practice poses! Don’t disturb my practice!”
Dumbfounded, Chu Yinlong was kicked out of the dressing room by Jiang Dao.
Getting into character… It’s all for the sake of getting into character.
He laughed inwardly, feeling that his IQ had lowered. How could he just think that Jiang Dao didn’t want him? He never knew he was so insecure.
But it’s no wonder – Jiang Dao is not from a professional background, and his mastery of acting is far from his ability to act freely and enter roles at any time. Jiang Dao is obviously from the experiential style; it will be difficult to grasp the essence of a character if disturbed.
Moreover, the role of Little Gray Wolf is much more complicated than Jess.
Jiang Dao sat in front of the vanity mirror with his eyes closed as the stylist took care of his makeup and hair.
He worked hard to slowly smooth out the ripples Chu Yinlong left, and regain the indifferent state of mind when he first came to this world.
In the film “Dawn City”, Jiang Dao tentatively decided on three sets of looks, namely, when he was a slave of the city master’s guard, after joining the resistance army, and as a member of the resistance army.
Director Mu was very satisfied with the single-photo shots, so he arranged for Jiang Dao and Chu Yinlong to take a few pair photos, and finally a group photo of the entire resistance army.
The cast of “Dawn City” was revealed for the first time, and Jiang Dao also met a few acquaintances while waiting.
Senior Yao Yuhua will play the leader of the resistance army, that is, Xia Tian’s father. Qi Peng will be the leader of the Dawn City guard, the one that Little Gray Wolf liked at first. Tang Yao will play the role of a soldier in the resistance army, and die midway through because of Little Gray Wolf’s betrayal. Tang Yao also won the opportunity for Zhou Wei to play the younger brother of his role, although there are not many scenes.
The last one is another member of the resistance army who Jiang Dao is very familiar with – Jing Yu.
As soon as he saw Jiang Dao, Jing Yu immediately ran to his side, hooked his neck and asked, “Hey, you feel so cold today. Why are you in a bad mood? Did you quarrel with Teacher Chu?”
Jiang Dao pushed him away disgustedly: “Don’t mess around.”
Jing Yu grinned: “I haven’t seen you for so long, I miss you!”
Seeing Chu Yinlong walking this way, he immediately let go of Jiang Dao, took a half-step to the side and winked at Jiang Dao. “I’ve read all the script, the sex scene is really cool. I really didn’t expect you to play Little Gray Wolf! It’s a pity that you won’t be on the sidelines, otherwise I…”
“Otherwise, what are you going to do?” Chu Yinlong asked.
“It’s nothing!” Jing Yu was still a little afraid of Chu Yinlong, so he quickly waved his hand towards Jiang Dao, “I’m done with makeup, and will head out first! See you in the crew!” Then he ran away.
Tang Yao, who came after him, laughed: “Look at you, scaring people.”
Chu Yinlong hummed, “If he sent messages to Zhou Wei every day, hugging Zhou Wei’s neck when they met, and wanting to watch Zhou Wei’s bed scenes, would you like it?”
Tang Yao rubbed his chin and nodded. “Then I’d have to blast him away too.”
Zhou Wei, who was following behind Tang Yao, blushed, and glanced at Jiang Dao cautiously, as if he was afraid of hearing things he shouldn’t.
Jiang Dao didn’t notice Zhou Wei’s expression, and said to Chu Yinlong: “Jing Yu is just a fool, what kind of vinegar do you eat from him?”
Chu Yinlong gritted his teeth and raised his hand to pat Jiang Dao’s head.
“Since we’re all here today, let’s have a meal together?” Tang Yao changed the topic with a smile. “My home is nearby, and I have a lot of ingredients. Let’s have hotpot at my place?”
Jiang Dao’s eyes glowed. “Okay!”
Chu Yinlong silently swallowed back his refusal.
This was the first time the four of them had dinner together. Tang Yao obviously asked his assistant to prepare things in advance, including the soup base, accompanying drinks, and water.
The hot pot bubbled, a few glasses of wine went down, and the atmosphere warmed as chatter started up.
Tang Yao talked about the gossip he recently heard in Zhang Heng’s crew: “You might know, but Zhang Wenyu is Zhang Heng’s niece, the eldest miss of the Zhang family. It’s rumored that she changes boyfriends faster than changing clothes… This time, she fell in love with a little model from our crew, and it is said that she is still chasing after him.”
Jiang Dao stretched out the chopsticks in the pot and paused.
“Little model?” He raised his eyebrows and looked at Tang Yao. “It can’t be Liu Yueran?”
“You know him?” Tang Yao was surprised.
Picking up some noodles with his chopsticks, Jiang Dao said casually, “I’ve seen him twice… he’s with Zhang Wenyu?”
Tang Yao smiled and said, “I didn’t pay much attention, but according to gossip, I don’t think they’re together yet. Don’t know if he really doesn’t like her, or is just playing hard-to-get.”
Jiang Dao looked at Chu Yinlong with a smile, only to find that the other party was also looking at him. The two of them exchanged a look.
“That’s interesting.” Jiang Dao picked up the bottle and took a sip.
Qin Xiao’s little lover is being chased by the daughter of the Zhang family. None of these three people are fuel-efficient lamps, and together with those things between the Qin and Zhang families… The conflict will be interesting to watch.
Chu Yinlong asked, “Why did Zhang Wenyu join your crew? Was he visiting Zhang Heng?”
Tang Yao remembered this clearly: “Her friend is a fan of Brother Wang and came to visit Brother Wang, and asked her to accompany her to visit a few celebrities. Ah, speaking of which, her friend has some background. She’s said to be the daughter of the financial tycoon, Xiang Yuancheng…”
“Cough… cough!” Chu Yinlong suddenly choked on wine.
When did Sister Xiang Yunru return to China?
His stepfather sent her to dig a hole for the Qin family with the Zhang family’s hand?
Recalling the fear of his ten-year-old self dominated by fourteen-year-old Xiang Yunru when his mother had just remarried, Chu Yinlong prayed in his heart: Don’t let elder sister see Jiang Dao, lest she reveal all of his black history.
However, what comes will come.
That night, Chu Yinlong and Jiang Dao returned to the villa, and just after a fight on the bed, he received a message from an unfamiliar number:
“It’s Yunru. I’ve just returned to China and am in Yan City for business. Let’s meet. Bring your little boyfriend, I’m interested in him.”
The sister appears! She’s a really fun character.
