Chapter 130: The Tiger-like Stare of the Little Round Face
"Have you ever won an award?"
"Ah?"
Bai Liang, sitting in a chair munching on snacks, looked at Li Qin with some confusion.
After asking this question, Li Qin also realized she had said something stupid and patted her head with her little fist in annoyance. "Forgot you only debuted a year ago."
"Can our drama participate in award selections?" Bai Liang asked curiously.
"Probably not... but you'll definitely be able to win awards in the future."
"I'll take your word for it~"
Bai Liang didn't know much about winning awards, and he wasn't very interested either.
Nazha hadn't had a chance to teach him about this yet; perhaps she hadn't been exposed to it either.
However, hearing Li Qin say this today, he felt he could tell Yanzi later, giving her a new goal to strive for.
As for how to strive, Bai Liang didn't know; anyway, leaving it to Yanzi was the right move.
And Li Qin was looking at Bai Liang with a full measure of scrutiny, her expression even a bit strange.
Little brother, aren't you a bit too powerful?
After that scene was filmed, Director Wu Jingyuan's mouth was almost crooked from smiling. After calling cut, the look he gave Bai Liang—if you didn't know better, you'd think the director of his crew liked men.
Li Qin had been closest at the time and saw it most clearly.
How should she put it? Good acting is very infectious.
Sometimes, when actors film a scene, making everyone on set cry isn't just a tall tale.
Li Qin had just been startled by the look in Bai Liang's eyes; even though it wasn't directed at her, she still felt nervous and uneasy inside.
But the most magical thing was that as soon as the cut was called, this guy immediately returned to normal.
With a pout of his little mouth and a smile on his face, he was completely harmless!
It was still easier to get along with this version of Bai Liang~
Oh wait, Li Qin had to deny one thing: the person closest at the time wasn't her; it was Zhao Liying.
She should have been the one who saw all of Bai Liang's eye changes, and who knows what she was thinking now.
Thinking of the scene yesterday where Bai Liang took the initiative to find Zhao Liying to run lines, only for her to be cold, Li Qin found it inexplicably funny.
No wonder everyone likes reading satisfying novels.
"I knew this bird-man Daxian was here to put pressure on me again... Damn you!"
Lin Gengxin and the others who had gone to watch the monitor came back, cursing as soon as they arrived.
Lin Gengxin seemed to recall the fear of being "dominated" by Bai Liang during the *God of War Zhao Zilong* period.
But he couldn't figure it out, and couldn't help adding: "You weren't this fierce last year, were you?"
Bai Liang looked at him in surprise. "I've been acting for a year, can't I have some improvement?"
The lethality of this sentence was a bit high, reaching AOE levels; no one on the scene escaped.
Heh, you can have improvement after acting for a year? It's not bad if you haven't regressed!
Who are you implying, you little brat?
Seeing that he seemed to have provoked "public anger," Bai Liang hurriedly contributed the fruit he had bought so everyone could cool off~
But clearly, the pressure had been applied.
The guys' faces were a bit heavy.
Except for Wang Yanlin, who said: "Buddy, I'm not playing the female lead's dream man. Do you know what a perverted villain means? Just be perverted enough~"
He was already lying down, waiting for Bai Liang to carry him to success.
It was very comfortable.
"Don't stop, keep complaining a bit more, I find it quite comfortable to listen to."
Calling it complaining, but actually it was flattery; Bai Liang also liked to hear nice things~
But the guys said, "You wish," and directly snatched away most of his fruit to vent their anger, each of them hugging their scripts and working desperately.
This bastard Bai Liang set the bar so high; if they really pulled it later, whoever pulled would be the one losing face!
It wasn't that everyone left; Sister Li Qin didn't leave.
With a smile still on her face, sweet~ After smiling flatteringly at Bai Liang for a few seconds, she very actively helped pinch a grape: "Please carry me~"
She had just learned this term at the dinner table yesterday; Lin Gengxin and the others used this term when they asked Bai Liang to play games.
Bai Liang generally wouldn't refuse these small requests, but this girl was a bit unreliable in her actions.
Are you going to let me eat that grape or not?
He didn't speak, just looked at the grape in Li Qin's hand.
It wasn't until the other party reacted and quickly stuffed it into his mouth that he nodded.
"Of course you can. We discuss with each other, make progress together, solidly promote the in-depth development of acting work, grasp timeliness, grasp results, in order to roundly guarantee the shooting goal tasks..."
Li Qin was dumbfounded; these words sounded so familiar, as if she had heard them somewhere.
More dumbfounded than her was Zhao Liying. Our little Sister Zhao had just come over and heard such a "long-winded speech," and for a moment, she even forgot to say hello.
An... actor within the system?
"This is the aftereffect of your previous exams, right?" Li Qin quickly reacted, covering her mouth and laughing.
Bai Liang blinked. "Don't underestimate these rhetorical devices; they are especially useful at times."
"When?"
"When you're brushing people off."
"That makes sense?!"
The young lady gave him a thumbs up, then quickly changed it to a middle finger. At this moment, Bai Liang felt she really overlapped with Li Yitong.
Oh no, it's been a while since I've seen her; could it be that I'm missing that little kitten?
"What are you thinking about?"
"Thinking about a little wild cat~"
Bai Liang was just thinking, *Should I start a video call and let Li Qin chat with Li Yitong? I feel it would have great program effects.
Just then, a dry cough came from behind. "Ahem."
Turning his head, he saw little Sister Zhao staring at him with a strange look.
Li Qin *whoosh* stood up. "Sister Liying~"
"Don't, don't, don't, why are you being so polite, you scared me..."
To be honest, if it were the Zhao Liying from when she first became popular, seeing the female lead of a crew where she used to play a bit part now acting as her supporting role, she would probably be secretly delighted.
After all, satisfying novels are nothing more than this.
But now... that stage had passed.
And she didn't come over to throw her weight around or act like a big shot; her target wasn't Li Qin.
"Bai Liang, let's run the lines for the later scenes."
"Sure~" Bai Liang said very casually.
Originally a scene for two, it had now become a movie for three. Li Qin had completely lost the ease and joy she had just now; that cold, bitter look returned to her face, and her tone of voice became light and airy.
However, although she felt a bit discouraged facing Zhao Liying, she felt a bit of the joy of "holding her head high" from Bai Liang.
Hmph! You ignored me yesterday, but aren't you coming over today! After feeling a bit of mental satisfaction, she was also curiously wanting to hear how these two would run their lines.
But she always felt that the way Zhao Liying looked at Bai Liang was a bit strange.
At this time, Bai Liang slapped his thigh. "Ah! I remember now, in the drama, I seem to call you little..."
"Little what?" Li Qin couldn't control her mouth and asked subconsciously.
"Little wild cat."
"Pfft!"
Alright, now there was no movie for three.
Li Qin, who laughed out loud, found a lame excuse and slipped away, lest she be "collateral damage" later.
But she truly admired Bai Liang; little brother, you are really daring!
In fact, when Zhao Liying heard this, she subconsciously wanted to laugh too, but she held it back.
At the same time, she was a bit curious, so the "little wild cat" mentioned before wasn't her?
Please... you... bookmark 6... 9... book... bar...!
She really thought Bai Liang was using the title from the drama to imply something just now, you little brat~
After discovering it was a misunderstanding, her eyes softened a bit.
"How do you think we should cooperate in the rebellion scene?"
"Empty talk and official jargon are far from enough. Only by solidly promoting the in-depth development of acting work, grasping timeliness, and grasping results can we roundly guarantee the shooting goal tasks..."
"That's enough!"
Zhao Liying really couldn't hold it anymore; she wanted to be angry and laugh at the same time.
Do you think I didn't hear that "used to brush people off" part just now?
"Ah?" Bai Liang looked innocent; he was about to enter the main topic, couldn't he have a little foreplay?
However, under the tiger-like stare of Zhao Liying's little round face, he behaved himself.
Fine, fine, let's talk about the script honestly~
This sister wasn't as fun as Li Qin; she couldn't take a joke.
However, that little round face was indeed more imposing than he had imagined.
Bai Liang's main memory of Zhao Liying always felt like it was stuck on her acting cute in TV dramas... but she was actually twenty-nine years old.
A bona fide mature woman.
Some subconscious actions, like flicking her hair, really had a bit of the charm of a mature woman.
Not much, after all, the little round face really made her look young.
Unlike Da Mimi, whom he only saw once, and felt a sense of mature impact.
The two really ran the lines properly and didn't do anything else.
However, Zhao Liying's attitude toward him was clearly different from when she first arrived yesterday.
Hmm, not as cold, but still couldn't be called enthusiastic.
Bai Liang vaguely felt that she seemed to have a very strong sense of defense.
Not aimed at anyone, but defensive against everyone.
Hmm... perhaps extra defensive against Bai Liang.
Zhao Liying: Can't see through this kid, need to be extra defensive.
At first, her cold attitude toward Bai Liang was mainly because the original choice for the male lead number two, Dou Xiao, was recommended by her.
Although there was a scheduling issue, the crew suddenly found Bai Liang, and anyone would have some opinions on that.
However, Zhao Liying wasn't Shuangzi, and this matter didn't reach the point of needing to go crazy.
But it was impossible for her to give Bai Liang a good look immediately after joining the crew.
It's already good that I'm not targeting you or acting like a big shot.
Still the same sentence: an embroidered pillow that is strong on the outside but weak on the inside versus a fierce man who really has a level—the treatment afterward will definitely not be the same.
The former would make you want him to get out immediately, while the latter would make you think about continuing the relationship next time.
This is the essential difference.
Plus, Bai Liang's contrast was quite intense, so Zhao Liying naturally wouldn't have any thoughts or opinions about him because of this matter now.
She also hoped that the actors in the scenes would act well and bring positive feedback to the drama.
This casting choice is fine!
Similarly, Bai Liang also felt something different about the first 85-flower he had officially dealt with since entering the entertainment industry.
These big sisters felt like they weren't in the same entertainment industry as the young girls.
He suddenly began to wonder, when he meets Yang Mi in the next crew and understands her a little more deeply...
What kind of person would that one, who is even more famous and controversial, be?
"Finished chatting? She still seems like she doesn't want to bother with you~"
After Zhao Liying flashed away, Li Qin drilled out from some corner, her expression clearly wanting to eat melons.
"How did you see that she doesn't want to bother with me?"
"Hmm... feeling, I guess. The way she looks at you is like looking at a scumbag."
Bai Liang:???
Is there?
Li Qin nodded seriously: There really is!
Hiss... are big sisters this fierce?! Sure enough, beauties in the entertainment industry are like flowing water, but the 85-flowers stand firm; they are really not simple!
No~
Bai Liang looked at Li Qin in confusion: "Am I a scumbag?"
"I don't think so; you're quite nice. I'm not giving you a good person card; I really think so." Li Qin continued seriously.
"Sure enough, it's her problem; you're a normal person."
Li Qin showed a helpless little expression. Since yesterday, Zhao Liying had had many problems in Bai Liang's eyes.
Fine, she also felt there was no problem!
Gossiping behind someone's back like this, although not very moral, was really satisfying.
And facts proved that what Li Qin said was not a problem.
Zhao Liying really had no opinions about Bai Liang, and her attitude became normal, but usually in the drama, she was smiling, and the two characters were childhood sweethearts, and she was his little wild cat.
But after the scene, except for the script, she almost had no communication with Bai Liang.
It was even a bit deliberate! It felt like she was avoiding Bai Liang.
This also caused the mockery and schadenfreude of the good brothers:
Daxian, oh Daxian! You have today too?
To date, the crazy operations Bai Liang had pulled off at Tang Ren had left Wang Yanlin and others in awe.
What kind of metaphysical Daxian is this, a male version of a fox spirit.
Almost packing everyone away was too crazy.
Now it's good, the brothers can finally breathe a sigh of relief; there is finally a woman that Daxian can't "seduce."
