Chapter 238 - Candy 2 (1/2)
Ah, this made one…
Conflicted. ????
The man pressed between his eyebrows and chuckled.
‘Alright.’
‘It is what it is.’
‘Just let it be, everything is already the best possible arrangement,’ he told himself a few words of chicken soup for the soul and turned around, standing by the bed for a few seconds.
Some ‘inhuman’ thoughts flashed through his mind.
Finally, he turned off the lights and picked up the script sitting on his bedside table. He sat down on the armchair next to the floor to ceiling windows and began flipping through the pages with distinct fingers using a small night light.
Shi Sui was still debating if he wanted to take this film or not.
The script was wonderful, describing a holy and pure church that had a blooming flower of evil embedded within it, while the dark and damp mental asylum contained the only shining point in the entire movie.
The plot was based on a criminal deduction story that interlocked as the supporting cast all had high intelligence levels.
Romance budded in the rivalry between the high IQ priest that was a criminal, and the young psychiatrist. It began with a cat-and-mouse chase and ended with regret and tragedy, oozing with drama.
In all fairness, Shi Sui wanted to take the role.
But he couldn’t do romance scenes.
It wasn’t an issue with his acting skills.
More like a psychological problem.
His rejection of contact with females had become a psychological barrier.
Director Yan had tried several methods to help him, but everytime Shi Sui began to film, he would vomit as soon as the camera started rolling. There was no effect at all, and he could only give up in the end.
Previous scripts he’d received were okay, but if they were to remove the role of the young doctor from this film, or scenes involving the young doctor, the entire film would lose its balance. It would also fail to meet the requirements for this director’s artistic expression.
So, he either had to overcome the psychological barrier of acting in a romantic role, or he would have to pass up the job altogether.
Shi Sui felt a headache approaching when the girl on the bed rolled over, overheated, and kicked off the blanket.
“…” So mischievous.
Shi Sui shook his head. He put down the script and stood up to cover her up.
