Chapter 72.2 - Night Changan screen test
Good acting skills were hard to come by, but true emotions were even harder to come by.
When director Li clapped ‘cut", he"d already decided who he wanted to cast.
Taking advantage of Mu Cheng trending after winning the best male lead award, the make up photos were quickly released.
Mu Cheng had recently been leaning towards being more backstage.
His studio had signed on a few new people, so apart from the main and secondary leads, nearly everyone else were new actors from his studio.
The male and female leads all had national recognition and were famous, so the whole cast"s looks were top notch.
But even then, after Tang Xiao changed into her costume, everyone still had their breaths taken away.
She wore a dark navy brocade gown with small embroidered white plum blossoms.
Her long hair was tied up in a high bun, with a long golden hairpin holding the bun together.
Long strings of pearls dangled from the hairpin and swayed as she moved in her hair.
Her face was beautiful, and with makeup, even more so.
Her eyes were the most eye catching, they were like a languid kitten"s eyes.
Beautiful, and it was an intimidating beauty.
Tang Xiao had been in many historical dramas, but she"d never had a role that just fit her so perfectly before.
To say she was so enchanting, she"d steal your soul, wouldn"t be an exaggeration.
“Liu Ji can be said to be the most beautiful woman in the drama, and I was originally worried that you wouldn"t be suited to such heavy makeup, but who knew that you"d look even better with this type of makeup.” Director Li was a bit excited.
Liu Ji was supposed to be the most beautiful, but with a national best actress as the female lead and many younger girls in smaller roles, he was worried that she wouldn"t shine.
Even though Tang Xiao was pretty normally, her beauty didn"t have that oomph.
But today, seeing this Liu Ji, everyone finally understood.
This type of woman was like the most exquisite piece of porcelain, you couldn"t drop it, you could only carefully hold it between your palms.
If you could ignore the big phone hanging by her waist, that would be even better.
“Tang Xiao, you"ll be popular.” Director Li couldn"t stop complimenting her.
Tang Xiao smiled politely at him before picking up her dress and running to find Mu Cheng.
“Mu Cheng, do I look good?” After speaking, she spun around.
The phone originally hanging by her waist also swung around in a circle with her.
As it spun into a perfect circle, it also perfectly flew and crashed into the ground - CRACK.
It was smashed.
“!!!!!!!!!!” Tang Xiao froze.
She then ran to pick up her phone.
Absentmindedly, she accidentally then stepped on her dress and luckily, Mu Cheng was quick and helped her up.
Otherwise, she"d be very pitiful looking right now.
When she picked up the phone, its smashed screen was so ugly she couldn"t look at it properly.
“Don"t touch it. You can just get a new screen.” Mu Cheng pressed down on her finger that wanted to touch it.
“My heart hurts, Night Changan hasn"t even paid me yet and my phone"s already dead.”
“I"ll help you repair it.” Mu Jin sighed.
She then grabbed a tissue to wrap the phone up and put it in her bag. “Tang Xiao, you really can"t be beautiful for more than three seconds, something always breaks the illusion!”
Mu Cheng helped fix her dress.
Suddenly, he leaned in against her ear and whispered, “So beautiful, I"m in love.”
This was even better than someone just calling her beautiful, or saying that they"ll go with whatever she wanted, or saying they"ll buy her anything.
Mu Cheng said he was … in … love.
“Oh oh oh!”
“F***! Can"t be beautiful for more than three seconds, and you"re also a r*tard!” Mu Jin took another stab at her.
After the makeup photos were released online, weibo exploded again.
Two nationally recognised best actors/actresses alongside Mu Cheng were enough of a topic to talk about.
But now there was the breathtakingly beautiful Tang Xiao, Night Changan immediately shot up to the trending headlines.
-- So! The makeup photos came out! Where are your selfies! Where?! If you don"t have selfies, in-game screenshots are okay too! If you don"t update your weibo, I"ll call the police!
-- My beloved idol released their makeup photos, but not selfies?!!!! This is the idol that least likes taking selfies!
-- I"m guessing that Tang Xiao finished taking the makeup photos and then rushed to playing Spirit Road, so she forgot to take a selfie!!
-- Your best internet-addicted couple have come online.
After Chief Ning found out that she changed her role, and she asked for it, his brows furrowed. “Changle princess has more scenes than Liu Ji.”

TL note:
Not too sure if you guys have seen makeup photos before, but they release them before a drama to hype it up.
(A photo after so long???)
Leave a comment and because the adjectives describing TX"s beauty were annoying xx
