Chapter 241 - 241 Untitled

241 Untitled

Bai Yunyi pinched her dress tightly with a bleak smile on her face.

“I’m sorry, Senior. I was thinking too much.”

In the end, she didn’t want to leave a bad impression on him. Bai Yunyi’s eyes were red, like an innocent and pitiful little white rabbit.

“I was just too anxious. It wasn’t easy for me to get this role, but now… I’m sorry, Senior. I lost my composure.”

There was a faint smile on Lu Beiqing’s lips, but his eyes were as cold as the moonlight by the cold river.

“Shouldn’t you apologize to me?”

Bai Yunyi’s face turned pale, and she bowed in Lu Xiaocha’s direction right on the heels of that.

“I’m sorry, Miss Lu. I misspoke.”

She lowered her eyes, hiding the unwillingness and hatred in them. There was even deep jealousy.

She had tried so hard to get close to him, but the distance was still so far.

Lu Xiaocha only had to stand beside him to receive his gentle and doting gaze.

Why were some people so lucky?

Lu Beiqing left with his sister. When he left, he did not even look at Bai Yunyi.

She watched in a daze as the young man’s tall back disappeared before her eyes with the girl.

Lu Xiaocha was heartless and did not take it to heart.

“Second Brother, aren’t you auditioning? Why are you here?”

Lu Beiqing’s voice was gentle and soothing.

“The assistant said that you’ve been out for a while. I was worried and came to look for you. It doesn’t matter if I left alone.”

Lu Xiaocha asked, “Worried about me? Are you worried that I’ll be eaten alive?”

It was still uncertain who would eat who.

Lu Beiqing smiled and didn’t say anything. He rubbed his sis’s head. “Will you come with me to the production team’s gathering after this?”

Hearing that, Lu Xiaocha was no longer sleepy. “What is there to eat?”

Lu Beiqing asked her, “What do you want to eat?”

Lu Xiaocha tilted her head and thought for a moment. “I don’t want Western food. There’s too little on each plate.”

When she was at the western cafeteria, she ate a lot of plates. Those people looked at her as if she was a monster.

No, no. Her appetite was a little big, but the plate was too small!

Lu Beiqing looked at her bulging cheeks and smiled. “Alright, I’ll give Therode my opinion.”

After the audition ended, Therode organized a dinner for seafood barbecue.

He was quite generous. All the seafood were in very large portions.

Everyone else was drinking and celebrating. Lu Xiaocha only buried her head in her food. An “accomplice” brother beside her helped her peel the shell. She ate happily. Her snow-white cheeks were puffed up, and her cat-like eyes were as bright as stars.

The people who were originally drinking and having fun had unknowingly turned their gazes to her.

“She’s really like a little angel who has fallen into the mortal world. How can she be so cute? Even when she’s eating!”

“Is this really Lu’s sister? Lu, can I bring your sister back to raise her? She’s too cute.”

Now, everyone basically knew that Lu Xiaocha was the sister of this famous director from Yunzhou. However, no one at the event location felt that she had relied on connections to enter the production team.

They had personally watched the little cutie’s audition. It suited Yun Li too well and her skills were so perfect.

Lu Xiaocha didn’t know what they were talking about, but they seemed to be talking about her?

She blinked. ‘It doesn’t matter if I don’t understand. Let me show you all a smiley face.’

Everything was fine as long as she smiled.

“Oh! I feel like I’ve been hit by sweetness! Why is she so cute!”

Elena covered her face and almost screamed.

Logically speaking, most Westerners could not appreciate the faces of Easterners, but sometimes, the truly good-looking people did not have national boundaries or gender.

For example, Lu Beiqing and Lu Xiaocha.

In the end, Elena and the others stopped drinking and sat beside Lu Xiaocha to feed the “little hamster” like Lu Beiqing.

Lu Beiqing was speechless.

‘You’re stealing my job!’

After the gathering ended and all the actors were confirmed, the filming of the movie began.

As a rare Asian face in the production team, Lu Xiaocha received a lot of attention as soon as she entered the production team.

Some liked this cute and soft little sister, but some jealous and even racist people didn’t like her.

“I really don’t know what Therode is thinking. Why did he have to add an Asian as the main character? Their looks don’t match my taste at all.”

A woman with long brown hair was complaining to her assistant in the dressing room.

The blonde girl next to her rolled her eyes.

“Then your taste is really better than Director Delo’s. That Asian girl is much prettier than you.”

“Little b*tch, do you want to fight?”

“Come if you have the guts. I’ve tolerated you for a long time, you idiot.”

The two of them cursed at each other as they put on makeup. They rolled up their sleeves several times, but with the help of their assistants, they did not really fight.

Lu Xiaocha’s makeup was already done. In order to fit the role, she was wearing a replica animal skin skirt. Her long hair was draped over her shoulders and braided with a few fishbone braids. At the end of her hair were ornaments made of wild beast teeth.

She wasn’t wearing any shoes, so she was barefooted. There were only some beautiful stone anklets tied around her ankles. Her originally wild outfit gave her a charming and lively look.

Therode’s eyes lit up when he saw her coming out.

“That’s it, that’s the Yun Li in my heart!”

Elena said, “Darling, you’ve really given us a big surprise!”

Lu Xiaocha glanced at her brother and smiled widely.

Lu Beiqing smiled and prepared to start filming.

Yun Li’s first appearance in the movie was on a tree.

The dense forest was filled with ancient trees that towered into the sky. The leaves gave her the most natural hiding place. The petite humans were as agile as the spiritual cats in the forest. They jumped between the tall trees as if they were walking on flat ground.

Therode had chosen a venue that fit the background of the movie. Now that they were filming in a real forest, it gave Lu Xiaocha a lot of room to perform.

She did not hang the wire because she felt that it was troublesome and annoying. She jumped up and grabbed the branch. With a few clean flips, she jumped onto the tree.

“Is this okay?”

Standing firmly on the tree, she did not even breathe heavily. Her dark eyes looked down at the people below.

The staff and actors surrounding her were dumbfounded. They stared blankly at the young girl who climbed up the tree in two or three moves. Their mouths were wide open for a long time, but they did not react.

“Of course.”

Before anyone could react, Lu Beiqing, as her biological brother, was very supportive.

“Xiaocha, come down first. Do the rest of you have any other questions?”

He had a gentle smile on his face, but his distant and indifferent eyes swept over the few people who looked down on Asian actors with racial discrimination.
