After Shen Liangchuan filmed a few scenes, it was time to film the scene in which Xiao Qiao tripped and was saved by Zhou Yu.
Best Actor Shen had never liked close physical contact with women. Hence at this point, the double was called in.
Shen Liangchuan was waiting to discuss with the director which might be the best way to embrace her, when the director pointed at a man who was hovering around Qiao Lian. “Best Actor Shen, this is your double. He will be doing the intimate scenes that follow.”
“Don’t worry, those two have been getting to know each other since this morning, so the segments we’ll be filming won’t be too poorly done! After that, we can film a few close-ups of you and that will sort things out. Errr… Best Actor Shen, do… you have any advice for us?”
As the director spoke, he noticed Shen Liangchuan’s expression darkening, hence he immediately sealed his mouth nervously.
Shen Liangchuan’s gaze, on the other hand, fell on Qiao Lian, who was chatting and laughing with the double.
Ah!
He had been wondering about this guy, who had been hovering around Qiao Lian since early in the morning. It turned out he was the double!
All he had been looking forward to was filming these intimate scenes and being close to Qiao Lian. And now they had found him a double?
Shen Liangchuan was livid, enraged and embarrassed into anger.
He said immediately, “There’s no need for the double.”
The director was stunned. “What? What then?”
Shen Liangchuan shot him a dirty look and said, “That double looks too ugly.”
The director stammered, “But… we’ll only shoot his back, not his face.”
“Oh. He’s a bit of a hunchback.”
Hunchback?
“Is he?”
The director looked across the room. That guy had a posture as straight as anything, he had used to be a military officer.
Best Actor Shen lowered his gaze indifferently and insisted, “He is. Look carefully.”
The director said uncertainly now, “… Maybe, perhaps, it seems he is just a little?”
“Uh huh. So we can’t use him.”
