Chapter 284 – She Came from The Fairyland
“All cameras ready. Are you ready? Action!” With a mixed shout in Chinese and English, several cameramen in a bamboo forest walked and filmed while carrying cameras, with others helping to pull the wires.
Amidst the gracefully falling bamboo leaves, a beautiful woman in a plain white ancient attire seemed to have crossed through time. She walked slowly, her beauty was unparalleled, elegant and refined, with a faint expression and an ethereal temperament. Her flowing white dress resembled a fairy or a spirit, breathtakingly beautiful.
Without accompaniment, she slightly parted her cherry lips and sang softly, “Time is rarely silent, autumn winds weary of wandering, the evening sun lingers, unwilling to leave, hanging on the wall, reluctant to let me go…”
Yes, the one being surrounded and filmed by the cameramen was Mo Fei, dressed in ancient attire.
Mo Fei, who was dressed in ancient attire, was truly beautiful. She looked like she was ten years younger, and what was even more amazing was how her original cold temperament harmonized with her white ancient attire, giving people a stunning aura as if a fairy had descended to the mortal realm.
She hardly looked at the camera, as if there was no one around. Within her gaze, she slowly sang out the lyrics. Without accompaniment, she sang with a resonant voice and created the feeling of having accompaniment!
“The words once whispered in the ears of the past, have now flowed away with the tide…” The most wonderful thing was the previous line, Mo Fei’s high but restrained singing, echoing ethereally in this bamboo forest, was actually intoxicating to listen to.
Once this scene was captured, the director remained immersed in Mo Fei’s beauty and singing. It took him a while to remember and finally shout, “Cut!”
He walked over, sighed and said, “There was a problem with the shot just now, Mo Fei. Although I said you don’t have to face the camera, you shouldn’t completely ignore it throughout the entire scene. At least one, no, two frontal shots would be good, right?”
Mo Fei stood quietly with her hands in front of her, listening attentively and nodding slightly.
“Let’s do it again!”
This was the filming set for Mo Fei’s new alb.u.m’s music video “Xiao Yao Sighs”. Mo Fei wasn’t the main character. The director wanted to shoot her singing scenes and then select a few segments to intersperse in the storyline of the music video. However, after today’s filming, the director might have to worry again.
This singer’s image might overshadow the leading actress in the music video, and might even steal the spotlight from the male lead! Should he cry? Or should he laugh?
Of course, it would be best to have Mo Fei as the female lead, but Mo Fei didn’t know how to act… It’s better to forget about it!
During the break, Mo Fei lifted the hem of her long ancient dress and walked to the side. Mo Xiaojuan was afraid she would catch a cold and quickly put a coat on her.
Mo Fei sat on a chair drinking water and watched Mo Xiaojuan stretched and yawned. Feeling a little sorry for her in her heart, she said, “Xiaojuan, come and sit too. We can squeeze together.”
After all, it was an outdoor shoot, and there weren’t many chairs available. Mo Xiaojuan was also a bit careless and forgot to bring one for herself. So, the two sisters took turns sitting on one chair.
“No need, squeezing together will wrinkle your dress. You rest for a while, and I’ll sit later when we start filming,” Mo Xiaojuan wiped away the tears from her yawn and smiled.
Mo Fei looked at Mo Xiaojuan’s face and said with some heartache, “Xiaojuan, you’ve been working hard these days, rushing around with me and often staying up late. Look, you’ve become quite haggard.”
Mo Xiaojuan was indeed quite hard working. Most of the time, she was accompanying Mo Fei and dealing with daily life matters, including when Yang Yi couldn’t come to pick her up after working overtime at night, she had to send Mo Fei home, and so on. But she also had to handle Mo Fei’s business affairs and find time to set up Mo Fei’s studio, all of which consumed a lot of time and energy. Even when Mo Fei was resting at home on her days off, Mo Xiaojuan couldn’t idle.
“Isn’t this very normal?” Mo Xiaojuan smiled and said, “Sister, I’m your agent. If I’m not busy, wouldn’t that be too irresponsible?”
“Then you also need to rest well. If you have nothing to do at the company, you don’t have to stay and accompany me. You can go back and rest.”
Mo Xiaojuan turned her head to look around, lowered her voice, and said, “How can I do that? I have to keep an eye on Sister Ling. I’m afraid that if I’m not here, you’ll sillily sign a contract with someone else, and that would be troublesome!”
“Am I that silly?” Mo Fei said indignantly.
“Hehe…” Mo Xiaojuan didn’t want to dwell too much on this issue. She suddenly let out a soft cry and reached out to touch Mo Fei’s face, which has only light makeup on it, and asked, “Sister, why is your complexion so good!”
“Huh?” Mo Fei was a little confused by her.
“A while ago, you looked worse than me, and you were so tired that you couldn’t even straighten your back. But now, you look better and better every day. Look, your face is so tender and smooth.” Mo Xiaojuan was a little surprised, “Did you use any skincare or beauty products?”
If so, Mo Xiaojuan wanted a whole truckload!
“Where did that come from?1 I usually just use those skincare products. You have them too, don’t you? You helped me buy them,” Mo Fei said strangely.
Mo Fei suddenly remembered something, “Oh, right, Yang Yi also does some treatments for me…”
Mo Fei couldn’t say the word “ma.s.sage” and felt that it would reveal something.
Mo Xiaojuan’s eyes lit up as she asked, “What kind of treatments? Is brother-in-law so skilled? Can I try it too?”
Which woman doesn’t love beauty?
However, Mo Fei thought of some inappropriate scenes that could occur during the ma.s.sage process and some indescribable but wonderful experiences that often happened afterwards. She couldn’t help but blush and scolded, “No. Why do you always want to try everything! Drinking plenty of water, getting enough sleep, and maintaining a proper work and rest schedule are more important than anything else!”
Mo Fei said a bit too much, and Mo Xiaojuan could see her intention to conceal it.
Mo Xiaojuan had a big imagination and suddenly thought of something, and she was immediately embarra.s.sed, “Ahem, ahem, sister, just pretend I didn’t say anything, I didn’t ask anything…”
“Where did your thoughts go?” Mo Fei’s face turned even redder, and she seemed to be trying to cover up something.
……
In Tianmei, inside a temporary recording studio set up by Ju Jie, Ju Jie was singing into the microphone.
“… Waiting for you to tell me, you want more than just my love. I face you with silence and honesty, the past happiness dissipating like smoke.”
Ju Jie’s singing voice could only be described as average, lacking distinctiveness and a broad vocal range. His singing skills were barely pa.s.sable.
But the tone of this song was very flat, almost devoid of challenging dynamics. It could be described as a song that was easy to sing along to2, and Ju Jie could actually sing it to a good standard.
“A’jie, A’jie, sing with a little more emotion, you have to sing out that heart-wrenching feeling.” Outside, Du Lun s.n.a.t.c.hed the poor producer’s microphone and said to Ju Jie.
Ju Jie nodded in a daze. He didn’t quite understand what it meant to be emotional, but he could still do the heart-wrenching aspect. He reached out his hands and grabbed the clothes on his chest, singing sadly, “Finally, you became someone else’s mistress, and I also know it’s not because of love…”
Du Lun nodded in satisfaction.
“Du Lun, when he sings like this, he’s a bit out of tune!” the producer reminded weakly.
“It’s alright, if he sings out of tune, we can adjust it. Right now, what we need is this kind of feeling. Help him solidify this feeling. We have to rush to release his single in the middle of the month, taking advantage of the fact that not many people are releasing songs at the end of the year…” Du Lun’s mouth curled up and said with some pride.
He could already see the potential newcomer he had created with his own hands rising up!
