CHAPTER 70: CHAPTER 70: COVER GIRL

Mu Yan ran into Wang Linjia when she went to the makeup room to touch up her makeup.

She nodded and said, "Sister Lin Jia."

"Mm." Wang Linjia responded, striding straight ahead.

Her attitude was still arrogant, not even glancing at Mu Yan.

Mu Yan turned to look at her back, surprised in her eyes. Did she actually respond to her?

"Move, why are you blocking the door!" A sharp woman’s voice came from ahead, full of impatience.

Mu Yan snapped out of it and immediately moved to the side.

"Sorry."

The woman snorted, held her head high, and walked on.

With this interruption, Mu Yan no longer thought about Wang Linjia’s matters.

After touching up her makeup, she returned to the lounge area to watch Wang Linjia act.

Wang Linjia was playing the role of the Empress in Dragon Soaring, the biological mother of the Eldest Prince, a woman who valued power greatly.

In this scene, the Empress instigates her son to rebel and seize the palace, reaching a mutual understanding with him.

Whether it was the lines, the expression play, or the body movements, Wang Linjia did everything perfectly.

Although she has never won the Best Actress trophy, to the outside world, she is an uncrowned queen.

Mu Yan had acted with Wang Linjia before and had always admired her acting skills.

Now, being in the same crew, her conviction to take her as a role model was even stronger.

She didn’t have many scenes, about two or three a day, with a total of just ten scenes, but they weren’t easy to shoot.

There were no scenes for Mu Yan in the morning, so she sat in the lounge area watching others act. Song Cheng’an didn’t accompany her today because he had some matters.

The scenes of palace seizure greatly tested the actors’ skills and were exhilarating for the audience to watch.

Therefore, Chen Zhou was more stringent than before, already shouting "cut" five times consecutively.

Finally, he couldn’t bear it anymore and jumped directly to the next scene.

This time the problem was with He Jianzhou, who played the Second Prince. After being berated by the director several times, he returned to the lounge area somewhat dejectedly.

Seeing Mu Yan, he smiled and said, "Do you think I’m quite embarrassing?"

Mu Yan didn’t expect him to talk to her and shook her head, "No."

He Jianzhou chuckled lightly, clearly not believing her words.

He sat down next to her, took the water passed by his assistant, had a sip, and stared ahead absentmindedly.

With a stranger suddenly sitting next to her, Mu Yan felt a bit uneasy.

She prepared to find an excuse to leave, but the person beside her suddenly spoke.

"I didn’t sleep at all last night, I’m really out of it today."

Mu Yan was a bit surprised, was he complaining?

"I know that’s no excuse, the fact is my acting was poor," He Jianzhou continued.

Mu Yan said, "Then you might as well take the opportunity to rest a bit now."

"But getting scolded like a dog by the director just now is really embarrassing." He Jianzhou was a bit irritated.

Mu Yan thought for a bit and asked, "So, are you planning to quit acting?"

He Jianzhou was taken aback, looked at her, "I didn’t say that."

Mu Yan smiled slightly, "In that case, please keep going."

She wasn’t familiar with him, so she just left it at that.

She stood up and said, "I’m going to the restroom."

Not waiting for He Jianzhou to speak, she left on her own.

He Jianzhou watched her back and suddenly laughed, "Interesting!"

He looked ahead, not knowing what he thought of, felt a bit irritated again, and simply closed his eyes.

Coming out of the restroom, Mu Yan suddenly received a call from Qin Xi.

"Qin Xi, what’s up?"

"Mu Yan, you’re trending!" Qin Xi’s voice was brimming with excitement.

Mu Yan asked puzzled, "What did you say?"

"See for yourself on Weibo, search for ’Micro Era Cover Goddess.’

Mu Yan was taken aback. Wasn’t ’Micro Era’ the magazine she shot yesterday?

"I’ll check it out, talk later."
