ETERNAL LOVE : A LOVE STORY Chapter 316 - Script Reading ( 3 )

Wu Sheng shook his head and tried to get out of the stupor. He took a deep breath as he looked at Xie Ming with his angry and stern expressions and pretended to slap her hard as he shouted at her, " How dare you talk about sleeping with another man? If you dared to think about other men, I will bury you alive under this palace ground. Meng Huan, don't test my patience."

" Just because I don't say anything to you, don't get out of hand. You're just an Empress. You're nothing without me. Don't forget that." he looked at Xie Ming with ruthlessness in his eyes.

Wu Sheng was an experienced actor and though he was distracted at first he eventually got into the character and played along with Xie Ming's improvisations.

It was getting hard for her to resist her charm and how pitiful she was looking at the moment. Even if it is just an act, he could feel her body tremble a little when he spoke his words.

Xie Ming, on the other hand, s.h.i.+vered when she heard his words.

' You're just an Empress. You're nothing without me.' These words. .h.i.t her hard.

Tears trickled down her red cheeks making her look more vulnerable. But she maintained the same stern and stubborn expressions on her face as she placed her hand on her cheek pretending to be slapped.

She turned to Wu Sheng and glared at him.

" How dare you hit me? Huh? Ding Hua, you're such a b.a.s.t.a.r.d. You want many women around you and married so many consorts in the name of strengthening your power, while I have to be loyal to you for my whole life?"

" You're allowed to bring other women into the palace and call them your true love and sleep them in that same chamber where we spend our first night together. And you dare to say this to me?" Xie Ming's eyes were red as she couldn't control her emotions and her vulnerable expressions made Wu Sheng feel weak in front of her.

" Ding Hua. You know that I loved you so much. But what did you give me in return? A betrayal? A slap? You called me your close friends after you brought that b.i.t.c.h? Was your heart so fickle that you can love anyone? Hmm? " she looked at him with her teary mocking eyes.

Her voice was heavy as she was speaking. Her throat was dry and it was getting hard for her to continue speaking.

Her words were not even in the script but it felt like they weren't acting. Wu Sheng palms felt itchy seeing her red nose and how her body was trembling in fear.

She was looking like a scared rabbit that needs protection. He turned clenched his fists tightly.

Mr. Han was already on the edge of his chair because of her acting. She was truly magic.

She even added a few words and it was amazing. He never saw someone improvising so smoothly and beautifully.

" You used me to strengthen your Empire and when you got what you want, you brought that b.i.t.c.h to satisfy your l.u.s.t? Do you say you love her?"

" It's not love. It's just your l.u.s.t and you liked how vulnerable she is and it ignited your male ego. You wanted to protect her just to soothe your ego. After you're done with her, she will become just like me. Your close friend." she laughed bitterly.

 "But let me tell you, you will not live happily together with her. I curse you that you will feel the same pain I am feeling right now. " she shouted with all the energy left in her body.

She finished her words with a death glare. Her face went pale and her face was covered in tears.

Even Wu Sheng was in a daze as well. He was just looking at her in awe. Her expressions were on point.

Whereas, Mr. Han got out of his stupor when Xu Lan reminded her to cut the scene. 

He was so into it that he forgot about it. He never thought that the character of Empress could look like this. 

He immediately stood up and said, " cut." with this the scene was completed. 

He walked towards Xie Ming and patted her back to bring her out of the character. 

Xie Ming was still looking at Wu Sheng with the same expression and didn't realize when he cut the scene. 

When Mr. Han patted her back, she got out of the character and turned to face Mr. Han.

She tried to wipe her tears but before that Song Xiner provided her some tissues to do that. She mouthed 'thank you' lightly and cleaned her face.

After that, she turned to look at Mr. Han after wiping her face. 

Mr. Han looked at her with pleased expressions and said, " Well done. Seeing you acting like this, I believe I don't need to worry about you anymore. I have chosen the right person for this role." 

Wu Sheng also got up and said to Xie Ming, " Mr. Han is right. Xie Ming, you're incredible. It was your first time acting, right? But you were amazing. " 

Jian Yan also stood up and was staring at Xie Ming in disbelief. He didn't know she had this kind of talent in her.

He never thought that she could do so well in this role. She was speaking from her eyes more than from her mouth. 

Her expressions were so perfect that made everyone feel emotional and Han Ling was so touched that she started tearing up.

Jian Yan felt that the expression on her face a while ago was too heartbreaking. It made him upset and felt that it was her true feelings rather than just acting. 

Whereas Yuan Lei was also surprised to see her acting but she gritted her teeth because her acting was much better than hers.

Everyone was treating her like a star whereas she was only a mere second female lead and nothing else.

But why was she getting such respect and she was treated like a mere supporting character.

Xie Ming was feeling tired after acting out the most exhausting scene. Her face has gone pale and she felt that energy has gotten out of her body.

Her white blouse was soaked into tears and her face was messed up and her eyes looked swollen due to crying so much.

This scene made her mentally exhausted and felt that her body went weak.

However, there were more scenes before to end. But thankfully, Mr. Han allowed her to rest and said that Jian Yan would do the scene with Yuan Lei when he first met Duan Lan and how he disliked her because he felt bad for the Empress. 

He was supposed to act his scene with Xie Ming but seeing her worn-out expressions and her amazing acting, he gave her a rest and changed the scene that Jian Yan has to perform. 

Xie Ming just sat there and saw others performing. 

Yuan Lei was angered because she was asked to act again while Xie Ming was told to rest. 

She was enraged because she had to keep acting while Xie Ming just sat there and watched them. 

She doesn't know why Xie Ming was getting special treatment when she should get this kind of treatment. 

Whereas, Director Han already knows about Xie Ming's condition and Xu Lan has already informed him that Tang Nian has told them to go easy on Xie Ming as she had met with an accident a week ago and the doctor has told her to take rest. 

After seeing her acting, he saw how she was sweating and her face went pale. He was already appreciative of her to attend this workshop despite the accident and injuries.

He has seen actresses behaving like flowers and always acted weak to get away from work. But Xie Ming didn't make any excuses even once.

She wasn't the one who complained about being tired but he could see her condition on her face. Her face was pale and she was sweating despite the air conditioner in the room.

He has seen how she acted and must be drained mentally. That's why he asked her to rest while making others act.

When an actor goes into the character too deep, they start to feel the same. And it becomes hard when they got out of the character. 

He could see how she had lost all her energy, so he asked her to relax. 

Moreover, he has given her the difficult scene at the start so that others can see her talent and also he can see if she can pull off this scene well or not. 

But she surpa.s.sed his expectations and made him believe her words that she said during the audition that no one can act this role better than her.

' It's true. Not anyone can be the Empress.'

He does not want her to get sick and skip shooting. He has finally found someone worth time and energy.

' How can he leave this gem?'
