Chu Jiang chuckled. "I was rude. We should indeed not interfere with each other."
When he turned his head to look at Bai Yun, the car had already stopped steadily in the housing estate.
Perhaps due to the overly gentle sunset glow, Bai Yun could feel the gentleness from his gaze. At a loss, she hurriedly got out of the car. However, when she got out of the car, she heard Chu Jiang's blessings. "I wish you a bright future."
By the time Bai Yun steadied herself, the car had already driven away from her. As she watched the person leave, she pressed down the ends of her hair and waved. "You too."
After the divorce was finalized, Bai Yun welcomed the most free time she had since she transmigrated. There was no plot for her to experience, and she had also successfully broken away from the main character group. She was now focused on the assessment day of the graduation ceremony.
In order to get closer to the character, Bai Yun specially searched for all the local and foreign movies about school violence.
The good ones truly invoked sadness and anger, whereas the bad ones were really of awful quality. One of them, a romance disguised as a movie exposing campus violence, made her lose her patience completely.
Just as she was about to turn off her computer, she remembered the poster she had seen in Chu Jiang's office and her interest was piqued.
She went online and searched for Chu Jiang's famous work, Quit. She clicked on it with interest. The duration was an hour and a half, which was neither long nor short for a commercial thriller movie. However, it was enough to make Bai Yun tremble from head to toe.
It was a pseudo-documentary. Ah Chen, who had anorexia from a young age, accidentally ate a piece of raw meat, which increased his appetite. As he grew up, he slowly began to be unable to resist the temptation of raw meat and could not quit no matter what. In the end, he simply used his profession as a surgeon to attack his patients.
He recorded each attack and the bloody delicacy which was shown with music at the end.
The tone of the film was chilling and there were not many lines, relying entirely on the exchange of glances between the actors.
Even though Chu Jiang still had an immature face at that time, his performance was seasoned and ruthless. Every look, every line, and even the way he breathed, were highly appropriate.
The image, accompanied by the sound of dripping water, was almost chilling as he walked through the shadowy basement, twirling a scalpel and whistling as he approached his prey step by step to hunt and feed upon.
That was the work that officially drew the line between the current Chu Jiang and his idol drama days. From then on, the scripts he accepted were all major productions, and he had never picked a wrong script. His movies all enjoyed tremendous success at the box office.
Fascinated, Bai Yun thought that it would definitely be very exciting if she were to act opposite Chu Jiang in real life.
It was a pity that they were still worlds apart here.
She had too many things to do if she wanted to cross this difference. First up, there was the assessment day!
Bai Yun was very confident in her acting skills. She had once been praised by many veteran seniors that her greatest talent in acting was her empathy which possessed a unique strength.
Even if it was just a supporting role, just by standing there, Bai Yun could make the character she played come alive. That was an ability that no one else could have.
But now, Bai Yun's gaze landed on the center of the screen where Ah Chen was still slowly cutting the last piece of raw meat. Her eyes burned with the excitement of finding her kind.
In the next few days, other than pondering the scenes for the graduation ceremony, she spent the rest of the time watching Chu Jiang's major production movies one by one. She watched as his acting path widened and witnessed how he went from being a greenhorn to becoming the masterful actor he was today.
She watched with relish, as if she was reviewing the short twenty-three years of Bai Yun in reality.
Yes, she had come one step at a time in the past, and she'd had it even more difficult than Chu Jiang. Because of her female identity, she had been harassed and gossiped about in her original world.
Fortunately, she was determined enough. The heavens seemed to favor determined children and she eventually was allowed to enjoy the best moments.
And now, Bai Yun was just going to repeat the same path. What was there to be afraid of? She, Bai Yun, was never afraid of another take.
Bai Yun secretly encouraged herself. Looking at the approaching assessment date, she rubbed her face and extended her character's scope again.
There were no established scenes that could be referenced. The difficult part was which scene to act in and what the psychological process was like. These might be difficult for the original Bai Yun who was just starting out, but it was a piece of cake for the youngest international movie queen.
Bai Yun sculpted her own unique role in the house she had gotten from the divorce.
In the blink of an eye, the day of the assessment arrived.
