Yang Weiyang introduced the male lead of the new movie to Lin Munci.
Under a tree on the set, he sat in a makeshift chair, reading a book. He wore a somewhat rough costume, but even so, it was evident that his entire being exuded a clear, bright, and serene aura.
His profile was handsome, with delicate features.
Yang Weiyang walked over. He looked up upon hearing the movement, revealing a face with a scholarly countenance.
The moment he saw Lin Munci,
a faint smile emerged.
It was perfectly measured, expressing gentle kindness without causing any pressure.
It truly conveyed an innate sense of good upbringing.
He smiled and nodded at Lin Munci.
"Hello. I am Yan Wenwen. The role I'll be playing is Long Jiu; in the film, I am the younger brother of Long Ge, Wu Minlong."
This young man easily garnered goodwill.
And although he was tall, perhaps because his demeanor was too refined, it made people feel a protective urge towards him.
But Lin Munci looked into his eyes.
For some reason,
her heart stirred.
She asked the system,
"Can I check his 'blackening' value?"
The system paused.
"Huh? Checking his 'blackening' value right away? With his background, his smooth sailing, his good education, a child who has never suffered any hardship, his 'blackening' value shouldn't be off the charts..."
"He's not like Ling Qianhe..."
The system muttered.
But then it suddenly became astonished, murmuring in disbelief,
"How can this be? His 'blackening' value... is actually ninety percent?"
"Good heavens, that's no less than Ling Qianhe. The system wouldn't be wrong... but why? He has no reason to have such a high 'blackening' value. His life isn't exceptionally perfect..."
Lin Munci sighed inwardly.
Seeing how perfect this guy was,
she knew it would be like this.
Things that are too perfect,
must be an illusion!
Didn't Ling Qianhe seem perfect in the eyes of his fans? He burst onto the scene, becoming an international superstar in just a few years, achieving what no one before him had ever accomplished.
In the eyes of his fans,
he was also perfect.
But his dark side was something others couldn't see.
Therefore, this seemingly perfect man before her must also possess an extremely dark side.
Of course, she had only just met him, so it was unlikely she could see through his darkness at this moment.
Lin Munci sighed silently.
Then she said,
"It's a pleasure to meet you. I am Lin Munci. Please guide me."
She didn't put on any airs.
She had only debuted a year ago.
The man opposite her smiled.
"Of course, I know your name. How could I not know you? The pride of the Chinese – your movies are brilliant. I've watched both 'Fangfei Juedai' and 'I'm Thriving in the World of Abusing Scum.' I'm your fan."
He actually admitted it so openly.
He was Lin Munci's fan?
Lin Munci was slightly taken aback; her eyes widened slightly.
The man opposite her nodded.
"I'm very happy to be working with you. This has always been my dream. And I heard you got accepted into Tsinghua University but delayed your enrollment because you were filming?"
"So you're my junior. I'm truly delighted. If you ever need anything, you can come to me. Acting is completely new to me, and you are a senior."
"In school, I'm your senior, and I can help you."
He was truly very gracious and magnanimous.
He stood up; the makeup artist was arranging his look. He had to leave for a moment.
Meanwhile, Yang Weiyang leaned close to Lin Munci's ear and whispered.
"Xiao Ci, he said he said he's your fan!"
Lin Munci nodded.
"Perhaps he's just saying a few polite words. Don't take it too seriously."
Yang Weiyang didn't agree with her self-deprecating remark.
"He was clearly very serious – and who wouldn't like you?"
"Even Ling Qianhe likes you!"
Mentioning this brought her a headache again. If Ling Qianhe knew this man was his fanboy.
Hmm.
The consequences were unpredictable.
In that case,
then...
Let's not let him know!
...
The filming of Wu Minlong's crew went quite smoothly. Everyone was young. Except for Wu Minlong being a bit older, everyone else meshed well.
Bai Jian was clearly filled with curiosity about the newcomer.
Perhaps it was due to his former profession as a police officer.
Lin Munci sensed that
Bai Jian seemed to be constantly observing Yan Wenwen.
But this observation wasn't obvious.
Instead, it was deeply concealed,
like a calm gaze hidden within his very bones.
The crew universally praised him. After all, someone with a good family background, excellent academic achievements, politeness, and who brought gifts to everyone upon meeting them was truly rare.
When Bai Jian received his gift, he smiled and said,
"I'm just a common man. An orphan, I used to wander the streets, not particularly cultured. I can't compare to your noble background. If I've offended you in any way, please forgive me."
The refined and gentle young man opposite him smiled.
"How could that be? You're overthinking it."
"You won't offend me."
"In the crew, we're all the same, colleagues. What we're thinking about is how to work together to make this movie great, to make it outstanding."
"If anything is unpleasant, you must tell me, and I can change."
His attitude was very good.
Bai Jian looked at him and smiled.
"Filming is just a job. You are a young master, condescending to be here. We little people are afraid of offending you."
"Let's just film our parts separately, minding our own business!"
His attitude was indeed a bit indifferent.
Anyone with eyes could see that Bai Jian was somewhat targeting Yan Wenwen.
And more importantly—
the attitude displayed by Bai Jian
seemed to be that
he was only targeting Yan Wenwen!
He was polite to everyone else.
This subtlety was perplexing.
However, Lin Munci didn't think Bai Jian was unreasonable. His attitude towards Yan Wenwen felt like he was regarding a suspect. There might be some hidden reason behind it, and she planned to find an opportunity to ask Bai Jian.
Unexpectedly,
before she could go find Bai Jian,
Bai Jian approached Lin Munci first.
He glanced at Lin Munci, a hint of coldness in his eyes.
"Did you know?"
"That man called Yan Wenwen is not simple."
"There's something wrong with him."
Lin Munci was very surprised.
"What's wrong?"
"Don't tell me—he's a suspect."
This movie was still counting on its release!
"When you were at the police station, did you happen to see his name on any special files?"
Lin Munci's heart suddenly clenched!
If the other party truly had issues, this movie might be completely ruined!
This was a movie that Wu Minlong had bet his entire fortune on, even Ms. Lin Cuiping had invested heavily in it!
She absolutely would not let this movie encounter problems!
