Your Rival in Love Gets Prettier Every Day

Chapter 11: Amaze Everyone!

Although they only read the lines according to the script, they could all hear Shen Jintai's cadence and emotions during his delivery. Though their basic skills were solid, they hadn't practiced for a long time, so their voices were in poor condition. As such they couldn't keep up with Shen Jintai.

Yang Lizhi, who was originally quite arrogant, also turned her head sideways to look at Shen Jintai. Bai Qingquan, who was sitting on the other side of her only saw the back of her head the whole time. A hairpin was attached to Yang Lizhi's hair. The shape was a simple orchid, but very beautiful, causing a tickled in Bai Qingquan's heart.

Wuwuwu*. He wanted to wear it.

*嘤嘤嘤. Originated from online chat. In online language, "bibibi" means crying, which means the appearance of aggrieved crying (mostly with cute attributes). I used Wuwuwu instead since sounds better.

"Qingquan," Guo Rui reminded: "It's your turn."

Bai Qingquan returned to his senses. He was nervous that he became tongue-tied: "My brother doesn't seem to know... That he doesn't like the opposite sex..."

"It's not this sentence. The sentence above." Guo Rui reminded.

Everyone gave a small chuckle causing Bai Qingquan to blush.

Damn, he actually lost to Shen Jintai! Bai Qingquan immediately raised his chest, sat upright, and vowed to compete with Shen Jintai to the end!

Guo Rui was very satisfied with the meeting. Everyone was putting their best foot forward and was full of energy. The main highlight was scenes between Bai Qingquan and Shen Jintai. It looked as if they were the embodiment of the actual characters in the drama.

Since Bai Qingquan's role was already a prince, he had to be more restrained and not as emotional, unlike Shen Jintai's role. Shen Jintai got really immersed in the play. His eyes were flushed with tears as he reached out his hand. He was supposed to be very stubborn in this scene. Though he was crying, there were no traces of girlishness at all as the tears kept falling down. Bai Qingquan wanted to compete against him so badly that he lost control of his emotions. In the end, he burst into tears and his voice cracked: "You'd better go back and think clearly whose slave you belong to!"

Hearing the dialogue like this stunned everyone. It was like they were seeing a live stage play. You can imagine how exciting it would be when the filming officially starts.

Everyone was impressed with Shen Jintai, especially the screenwriter, Meng Xiaosheng. She knew Bai Qingquan's acting was good, but Shen Jintai surprised her. His eyes were still red, and eyelashes still moist from the crying and she couldn't help but feel they were made to play those roles.

During the gap of the meeting, Song Wei and Shen Jintai went to put on their makeup.

This time Song Wei's attitude towards Shen Jintai was a lot kinder: "You were very good young man. I don't know much about you. Have you taken acting classes?"

Shen Jintai shook his head and said: "No."

Song Wei: "Your line delivery was fantastic. Have you ever acted in a play before? I remember you were quite young at that time."

"Young" was a nice way of putting it. Shen Jintai had searched the internet for his first drama two days ago. The acting was disastrous. After watching for only 10 minutes, he had to stop due to self-embarrassment.

Shen Jintai: "It was the first time I had acted, and I completely bombed. The internet was full of bad reviews. Since then, I was determined to practice my exercises well and learned a lot in these past two years."
