11 Just for Show (2/2)

As the temperature rose, Lee Mu snuck his arms underneath Joann's clothes. Joann sucked in a hasty breath as response.

The actions might seem fiery from the outside but internally, both actors were focused on timing and their lines.

About two seconds later, Joann moved her lips to the side and smiled a shy smile, adding, ”You've been rushing around for so long, aren't you tired?” She did not forget to throw in a breathy word or two for authenticity's sake.

”Even if I'm tired, I'll rest after I finish making love to you,” Lee Mu growled before moving in on her lips again.

He slowly edged Joann towards the bed, being extra carefully not to trip on her since they were physically entangled together. As they fell onto the bed, Lee Mu made sure to lean his body to the side so as to not crush Joann under his weight.

He proceeded to unbutton her top and planted kisses all over her body as demanded by the script.

Joann made sure her body was turned in strategic angles so that her naked form would appear artistic to the camera and not too porn-like.

Amidst the series of moans and groans, Lee Mu climbed on top of Joann, leaned into her ear and whispered, ”The viewers today are such perverts, wouldn't you agree? They hound for scenes like these…”

Since the whisper would not be picked up by the audio boom, the whisper was mainly for Joann's benefit, to make her laugh. Lee Mu's favorite pastime at work was to make his fellow actors break character.

He would add in the actual line, ”Qiao Qiao, last night in America, I already wanted to do this...” with post-editing.

Joann allowed herself a small smile before wrapping her legs around Lee Mu's bare buttocks. She made sure to kick extra hard as her revenge.

This caused Lee Mu to grit his teeth in pain but from the camera, it looked like he was preparing for the ”finale”. Of course, they were not doing ”it” for real. All they ever did was create a fantasy, for was that not a professional actor's job?

The scene was soon wrapped up and the director thanked both Lee Mu and Joann for a job well done.

…

Later that day, a slender figure entered the editing room. She asked the director in a sweet, innocent voice, ”Mr. Director, do you mind giving me a copy of today's shoot?”
