Quite awkward

The third female character Yin Zhi in "The Years of Prosperity" is a dancer. She and the third male character Lin Zhixun were each other's first love. They met again in society many years after breaking up, and coincidentally met again at work, thus the story of reconciliation began.

The filming is more than halfway through and it is already early April.

Qi Yu had just finished a complete dance on the stage and finished work after taking a few close-up shots.

She changed her clothes and came out of the rest room, and Yan Shen suddenly stretched out his arm to block her way.

Meeting his annoyed look, Qi Yu asked calmly, "What's wrong?"

Yan Shen looked around at the staff coming and going, and took Qi Yu to a corner.

He had a melancholy expression on his face, leaning against the gray wall with his hands in his pockets.

"The director wants to give us an extra kissing scene."

Qi Yu was puzzled and asked, "Aren't Yin Zhi and Lin Zhixun's love stories pure love?"

The characters grow from being young and naive to being steady and mature, but in terms of feelings, the two have always been cautious and tentative.

A simple look or a caring gesture can reveal lasting love without the need for passionate expression through intimate actions.

Yan Shen spread his hands, expressing his helplessness.

"The director always felt that something was missing, and just now he pulled me over to tell me that this kissing scene would most likely be filmed."

As for why Yan Shen was so impetuous, it was because he already had a girlfriend with whom he had been in love for many years, and she found it difficult to accept him filming intimate scenes.

Qi Yu understood his dilemma.

But if the director thinks it is necessary to shoot this kissing scene, she has no right to refuse and can only obey the arrangements of the crew to ensure the coherence and completeness of the plot.

She comforted him softly: "It's not confirmed yet, so don't worry."

Yan Shen scratched his hair and sighed.

I hope this kiss scene was just something the director said on a whim and it might not be executed.

On the second day, the director called Qi Yu and Yan Shen aside for a private talk, confirming that they would be filming a kissing scene between the third man and the third woman, and asked the two to prepare in advance.

After a long period of filming, the crew will take two days off to rest.

They will resume filming after the Qingming Festival, and this kissing scene is scheduled for the first day of resuming filming.

After the director left, Yan Shen felt anxious and irritable.

If he really filmed a kissing scene, his girlfriend would definitely have a big fight with him.

He was torn between work and love.

Yan Shen's reaction was too big, and Qi Yu's silence made the atmosphere awkward.

She also didn't want to do a kissing scene.

First, I had no real kissing experience, second, I had no experience in filming kissing scenes, and third, my co-actor seemed very reluctant.

Yan Shen saw Qi Yu looking down at the ground quietly. He couldn't get over his impatience and said embarrassedly, "Qi Yu, I'm sorry, I overreacted."

Qi Yu looked up at him and shook her head gently: "It's okay, I understand you."

Yan Shen put his hands on his hips, turned around, and suddenly said, "We'll just shoot it when the time comes. I'll keep it a secret from my girlfriend for now. This is the only way. I'll go and comfort my girlfriend when the show airs."

Qi Yu was speechless and could only cooperate fully to complete the work task.

The two separated and did not stay to discuss how to shoot the kissing scene that day.

……

Qi Yu planned to use the two-day holiday to go back to Muchenan's villa to get some clothes for the spring and summer season. As the Qingming Festival was approaching, she needed to go to the cemetery to pay homage to her father Qi Jianhong as in previous years.

That night, Mu Chenan returned home and had dinner alone in the restaurant.

Suddenly there was a noise at the door, and the sound of suitcase wheels rolling over the marble floor.

After a while, Qi Yu stood in the area separating the dining room and the living room and greeted the man with a smile.

"Good evening, brother."

Mu Chenan raised his eyes, his gaze gently swept across her face, and then fell on her.

She wore a lavender hooded casual sweatshirt on the upper body and light-colored jeans on the lower body, which tightly wrapped her straight and slender legs. She looked youthful, lively, young and beautiful.

He said expressionlessly: "Come here."

Qi Yu let go of the suitcase in her hand, walked closer to the dining table, and looked curiously at the light dishes on the table, which were not appetizing to her.

Being closer, Mu Chenan could see her face more clearly.

After not seeing her for more than two months, her chin has become much sharper.

"You've lost weight." He commented calmly and coldly.

Qi Yu touched the side of his face and was a little surprised.

With daily high-intensity dance training and deliberate diet control, it seems that her body management has achieved remarkable results.

Mu Chenan noticed her reaction and smiled lightly: "Are you still happy?"

"Shouldn't I be happy about losing weight? Actors should be thin. I'm just being dedicated to my job." Qi Yu said proudly with his chin raised.

Mu Chenan's face turned cold. He put down his chopsticks, looked at her carefully, and said sarcastically, "How ugly."

Qi Yu was slightly stunned. After a moment, he turned his face away sadly and breathed lightly, comforting himself not to bother with such a short-sighted person like him.

“What are you doing back here?”

Mu Chenan had lived alone for so long that he almost forgot that Qi Yu had a room in this villa.

From the tone of voice, it was obvious that she was not welcome back. She pouted and said angrily, "Just grab some things and leave."

Mu Chenan turned his head to look at the dark sky outside the window, smiled, and didn't intend to stop her.

Qi Yu took his suitcase and returned to his room on the first floor. The room was clean and the pillows and quilts were neatly folded.

Originally, she wanted to stay here tonight, but when she thought of Mu Chenan's unpleasant attitude just now, she decided to pack up her things and take a taxi back to the crew hotel.

Halfway through the cleaning, Xiang Wei suddenly called. Qi Yu put the phone aside on speakerphone, sat on the floor, and continued to fold clothes.

"Do you really want to do a kissing scene?"

"Yes, that's what the director meant."

As she finished speaking, Qi Yu didn't realize that there was a man leaning leisurely against the door frame of her room.

She had her back to that side, unaware of all this, and was still talking on the phone with a resentful tone.

This room was located in a corner on the first floor of the villa. When she first came in, she thought that no one had lived here for a long time, so she opened all the windows and doors to let in some air.

"Is the other person handsome?" Xiang Wei asked.

Qi Yu thought for a moment and replied, "He's a tall, thin, and handsome guy."

"That's good. As long as the other person is not ugly, you won't suffer any loss." Xiang Wei joked deliberately.

Kissing scenes are part of an actor's job, it's no big deal.

What Qi Yu is worried about is that she doesn't know how to do kissing scenes.

Although both parties were very embarrassed, Yan Shen planned to go straight to the scene on the day of filming and had not thought about rehearsing with her in advance. This made her very embarrassed and she didn't know how to shoot this kissing scene.
