After Waking up Beside the Villain

This group of people were focused on filming.

As the male lead, Chu Yunsheng had a lot of scenes, and he had been running around continuously.

Du Mingyao, played by Yin Zheng, hasn’t appeared so soon, but Yin Zheng was under the control of Chu Yunsheng. He had no mobile phone and no internet. There was no other choice but to sit on the small bench and watch Chu Yunsheng act.

Looking at it, Yin Zheng’s impression of Chu Yunsheng was slowly changing from his initial impression of him being a hypocrite.

Chu Yunsheng was not the original host, but his learning ability was far better than the original. Otherwise, he would not have been a genius who dropped out of school and developed anti-cancer drugs.

He absorbed all the experience left by the original body like a sponge, and made some adjustments to interpret the protagonist Yuan Qing in this film in an experiential way according to his own ideas.

Before filming started, even Zhang Feifan was not very confident that Chu Yunsheng could play the teenage Yuan Qing all at once. After all, Chu Yunsheng’s age was there. But they are such a small and crappy crew, they simply can’t invite a protagonist of the right age with good acting skills. If they could invite Chu Yunsheng, they would already have to burn expensive incense.

No one had confidence in Chu Yunsheng.

But they didn’t expect that in the first scene of filming, Chu Yunsheng, dressed in the short-cut clothes of the Republic of China, stood in the quaint yard. His eyebrows that had been modified by the makeup artist immediately revealed an incomparably sense of youth from the inside out.

This young man felt pure and astringent, but not weak.

It contained both suffering and hope; Stable and full of vitality. Looking at it through the camera lens, at first glance, people would think that this was a teenager with a complicated past. Though life was hard, he was contented.

Yin Zheng was amazed.

A thirty-five-year-old man, playing a teenage boy, could only be seen in veteran actors.

This way of interpretation was actually not very respected, after all, there would more or less be a sense of discordance. But in Chu Yunsheng, probably because he was well maintained and had a good grasp of his psychology and temperament, this sense of discordance was practically non-existent.

And in the two scenes where Chu Yunsheng killed the old man, killed the trafficker, and struggled with the children all night, Yin Zheng was even more shocked.

This was acting.

Yin Zheng had fear in his heart, but it also gave birth to an infinite yearning and fighting spirit.

“Blue Sky Murder” was not filmed entirely according to the timeline, so within two days of filming, it was time for Yin Zheng’s scene.

Yin Zheng struggled for a whole day, and when the filming was over at night, he mustered up his courage and walked into the master bedroom with the script in his arms.

Chu Yunsheng had just finished taking a shower and walked out of the bathroom wearing a bathrobe. When he saw Yin Zheng standing at the door wearing a little bunny pajamas, his face changed.

He looked at Yin Zheng’s pajamas with some surprise. He felt that when Yin Zheng dressed like this, it was like he wanted people to touch his small round tail.

But unfortunately, the pajamas were only printed with bunnies and did not have a tail.

Chu Yunsheng suppressed the regret in his eyes, and said with a natural expression, “Come in, is there anything?”

Yin Zheng moved in slowly, trying his best to ignore the discomfort all over his body, and said politely, “M-Mr. Chu, for our fight scene tomorrow, I would like to ask you to practise with me.”

Chu Yunsheng leaned against the bed, took the script and glanced at it: “Yeah, I’m going to film the first meeting at the Da Yanguan. First, tell me your understanding of the role of Du Mingyao, as well as Yuan Qing and Du Mingyao. What do you think of the change in the relationship between the two?”

Seeing that Chu Yunsheng was acting like a standard teacher, Yin Zheng unconsciously relaxed.

Of course he had done his homework. Du Mingyao’s biography had tens of thousands of words, so when facing Chu Yunsheng’s question, he thought about it and said, “Du Mingyao is not a typical villain nor a proper warlord either.”

“He is paranoid, arrogant, and has a strong desire for control. He is good at disguise, cruel, but very rational, can afford to let go, and has a special feeling for his family. So he played with power, robbed territory, and even conducted looting and arson. In the early stage, he also ceded his land and paid indemnities, and dealt with various countries, not thinking that he had done anything wrong, but that he was doing it for the good of the country. But in the later stage, facing the invading army, he toughened up for the first time and became the first person to resist, and also the first person to sacrifice himself.”

“This character is actually not complicated, but it is a little difficult for me to play his transformations and contradictions well.”

Yin Zheng said frankly: “Speaking of his relationship with Yuan Qing… In my opinion, his love for Yuan Qing is more like a plaything, based on interest and use, just something he would give a little affection to. But if such emotion exceeds the standard, and this plaything is no longer under his control, then he can also be ruthless and destroy this plaything.”

Chu Yunsheng listened quietly.

Yin Zheng’s analysis was almost the same as his understanding of Du Mingyao.

If it weren’t for this role being complex but simple, with a distinct personality, he would not have chosen Yin Zheng.

For a role that is too demanding, Yin Zheng, who was used to cramming, was not up to the task.

“…that’s my understanding.”

After Yin Zheng finished speaking, he looked at Chu Yunsheng, feeling a little nervous in his heart.

Chu Yunsheng did not immediately comment, but looked up and said, “So in your opinion, the first time Du Mingyao saw Yuan Qing, it was the feeling of discovering a favorite plaything?”

Yin Zheng sat on the chair beside the bed, nodded. Then he saw Chu Yunsheng’s temperament suddenly change. The originally handsome and gentle eyebrows raised slightly, bringing out a hint of cold ridicule, as well as a gloomy and decadent beauty.

He seemed to have instantly transformed into that slender young man who was in the Da Yanguan for everyone to have fun with.

The hazy smoke covered his haggard and gloomy face. His eyes were dark, but there was a trace of light hidden deep within, like stars buried in the mud. On his degenerate face, there was a hint of imperceptible brightness.

He watched the arrogant officer through the smoke, but lowered his eyes blankly as if he was looking at a stone.

Yin Zheng’s eyes instantly lit up with a dark fire, he subconsciously curled his lips into a smile. He glanced back and raised his chin casually: “That plaything, I want it.”

As soon as the words blurted out, Yin Zheng came back to his senses, stared at Chu Yunsheng in a daze, and mouthed ‘f*ck’.

Chu Yunsheng’s expression returned to normal, and he looked at Yin Zheng who was in a daze with a funny look: “That’s it. Conquer, control, transform, and get excited when people such as Du Mingyao see Yuan Qing for the first time. They won’t take such a plaything seriously at all. Not to mention using him, it’s just a boring interest.”

He glanced over Yin Zheng’s somewhat stiff look, then swept his gaze between Yin Zheng’s legs and said lightly: “Control yourself, it’s better not to get hard on set tomorrow.”

Yin Zheng: “…”

I’m not! I didn’t! Stop looking!

“F*ck!”

Yin Zheng’s face reddened, and he rushed out of the bedroom as if his buttocks were on fire.

The bedroom door slammed shut.

Chu Yunsheng sat on the bed, opened Taobao on his mobile phone, searched for plush pajamas and put them in the shopping cart.

He had always been worried about the psychological shadow of Yin Zheng after they had slept together. Compensation was just compensation, and resolving guilt was just an apology, so he rarely bothered him if he had nothing to do, but now… Yin Zheng actually got hard because of him?

Interesting.
