Chapter 26 (1/2)

Genius and Idiot

By the time Lu Zhen finished her makeup and changed her clothes, Lu Rou had already finished filming a scene and was touching up her makeup.

The screenwriter edited their scenes at the last minute and handed the script to the two of them to familiarize themselves with.

After Lu Zhen received the script, she began to figure out the character. She had always been very careful and serious when it came to work. In addition, she was talented, so she was able to become famous in her previous life.

If Lu Rou and the others hadn’t schemed against her, she would definitely have become the top actress in the entertainment industry. After all, she had a lot of film, television, and fashion industry resources.

“Sister Zhenzhen, have a glass of honey water to moisten your throat.” Sun Xiao brought over a glass of honey water.

As the characters in the drama had a lot of lines, her throat probably wouldn’t be able to take it if she didn’t drink some water.

“Thank you, Sun Xiao.” Lu Zhen thanked her gently. She was really starting to like this little assistant more and more.

Sun Xiao blushed a little. This was what she should do. Sister Zhenzhen was too polite to her. After putting on makeup, Lu Zhen looked gorgeous. Even a girl like her was mesmerized.

Lu Rou watched from afar and immediately instructed the assistant on the set, “I spoke a lot just now. Get me a glass of water.”

The assistant on the set wasn’t her personal assistant and didn’t want to talk to her, but she was afraid of being targeted by Lu Rou, so she went to get a glass of water.

Lu Rou usually didn’t have an assistant. It wasn’t that she couldn’t afford to hire one, but Wu Yu was worried that if they hired an assistant, the news of them controlling and bullying Lu Zhen would spread. It wasn’t safe enough, so Wu Yu had always been the assistant.

Lu Zhen took a sip of honeyed water and continued to silently recite her lines.

Then Director Li walked over. “How is it going? Any questions?”

“I’m about ready!” Lu Zhen nodded.

However, Lu Rou encountered a problem. She couldn’t remember her lines. Although she was racking her brains to memorize them, the effect wasn’t good.

In fact, if not for Lu Zhen, with her acting skills and status, Lu Rou wouldn’t have been able to take on this role.

“Lu Rou, how are your preparations going?” Director Li asked Lu Rou again.

Lu Rou braced herself and nodded. “I’m ready, Director Li.”

In fact, the next scene was mainly Lu Zhen’s scene. Her lines accounted for 80% of the scene. Lu Rou only had a few sentences. With a professional actor’s memory, it wasn’t difficult.
