Chapter 208: Chapter 208: Where’s Second Brother?
"Jianghu" is a rare traditional martial arts film in recent years, not a costume romance, hence the acting skills of the actors are more demanding. The makeup is also more realistic, not pursuing beauty or handsomeness. Specifically, Tuanzi stood outside the camera, looking at Gu Che, who plays the male protagonist, in horror, unable to recognize him.
The skin of the wanderer who travels year-round is dark and rough. To avoid enemies, he deliberately creates scars on his face, wears a rough hemp short coat, and his hair is messy. At this moment, he is disguised as a hunchbacked, limping shop helper, serving tea to people.
Tuanzi stared wide-eyed in shock. Where’s her second brother? Where’s that handsome second brother? Who has stolen her second brother?
The director shouted ’cut’ at the next moment, allowing the actors to rest.
Gu Che still had a customer-pleasing smile on his face, slightly tilting his face as if self-conscious about the scars on it, with complex emotions lingering in his lowered eyes.
This scene had ended, but he hadn’t yet stepped out of the role. When he lifted his eyes to look over, a sharpness flashed in them, like a sword drawn from its sheath, ready to attack his enemy.
The killing intent was real.
Tuanzi was startled and instinctively took several steps back, assuming a defensive martial arts stance with her hands.
Passersby were taken aback.
Gu Che only then noticed that his sister had arrived, and the killing intent turned into a silly grin.
Realizing others were looking over, he pressed down the corners of his mouth, coughed with restraint, and then walked over.
"Miaomiao, you finally made it."
The little girl looked up, hesitating as she watched him, "This voice, it’s second brother, and this height, too. Are you really second brother?"
Gu Che: "?"
"I’m just in makeup. I really am your second brother!"
The young top star said aggrievedly, "This is for the role, a person who needs revenge and travels around for years. His skin is bound to be terrible, his body full of wounds, and he doesn’t groom himself."
Not to mention, he was not only looking bad with his hairstyle and skin but also playing an injured shop helper right now.
"The protagonist is in disguise, normally my makeup is still very..." Gu Che couldn’t lie shamelessly, "Not talking about makeup, the fight scenes are still quite handsome. Sometimes plotting is also handsome, really very handsome!"
He almost shouted, I’m still that handsome second brother, sister don’t ignore me!
Tuanzi smiled, showing her teeth, "Just kidding, you must be Miaomiao’s second brother, that handsome second brother!"
As she said this, she averted her gaze, not meeting Gu Che’s eyes.
Gu Che: "!"
"I’ll remove the makeup right away."
Gu Chi smiled and stopped him, "Don’t rush, what if there’s still your scene next?"
Gu Che rolled his eyes at him, "There’s no scene for me. If there’s no need for reshoots, I can finish work today and play with Miaomiao."
Almost implying he doesn’t need him to take care of his sister next.
Gu Chi smiled but said nothing.
As it turned out, due to an actor’s positioning mistake, Gu Che indeed needed to reshoot.
He silently cursed the actor who kept messing up several times in his heart, while still diligently doing the retakes.
After shooting, the male actor came over to apologize, "Gu, I’m sorry, I troubled you again."
This male actor spoke loudly, so many around heard it, looking at Gu Che with a peculiar gaze. After all, the one apologizing was also a tier-one celebrity. A tier-one male star bowing his head, tsk tsk.
Not far away, Sun muttered, "Here we go again, deliberately lowering his stance. Guess tomorrow there will be an insider reveal: ’A top star bullied other actors on set, demanding a public apology’, or something."
Tuanzi ’whooshed’ over, sizing up this male actor.
He looked young. Although his makeup was ugly, the original appearance probably wasn’t bad.
"No need to apologize to second brother."
She ran over ’dap dap dap’, her voice sweet, "Second brother has a good temper, he won’t hold it against you."
Tuanzi clung to Gu Che’s side, squinting as she fake smiled at the male actor, "But, you seem to have troubled other staff members. If you truly want to apologize, apologize to them instead."
The male actor froze.
"Gu, this is your sister, right," he awkwardly changed the topic, "Your sister is so cute."
"Thank you for the compliment," Tuanzi thanked with courtesy, then fake smiled, "You’re quite handsome yourself."
The actor with ugly makeup: "..."
After praising the other, Tuanzi grabbed Gu Che’s hand, "Second brother, shall we go rest somewhere else?"
Gu Che felt very pleased, laughing wildly inside, yet still reserved on the surface.
He was always concerned about his image in front of his sister.
"Let’s go to the van, there are some snacks inside."
Tuanzi’s eyes lit up, wanting to take her second brother’s lapels and fly.
"Hurry, hurry, good food waits for no one!"
She dragged Gu Che along, happily greeting the director on their way.
Tuanzi emptied the mini-fridge in the van, sitting among the snacks, grinning ear to ear.
"Crunch!"
Holding a chocolate stick, Tuanzi looked up, tilting her head confused.
Gu Chi explained with a smile, "Miaomiao is too cute, just keeping a memento."
"Oh, don’t praise Miaomiao so much."
Tuanzi seemed shy, twisting her little body. In truth, her eyes were bright, eagerly looking at Gu Chi, as if saying, ’Keep the compliments coming.’
Gu Che was resting with his eyes closed but sat up immediately upon hearing this, grabbing his phone to snap pictures.
"Miaomiao, come on, make a gesture."
Tuanzi was immersed in food, casually forming a heart with her fingers.
Gu Che was satisfied, at this moment, a dialogue box popped up on the screen, from Gu Cheng.
Opening it, he was startled.
"How, how does big brother know I gave Miaomiao a lot of snacks?"
He nervously looked around for surveillance.
There was no surveillance, just a cousin with a beaming smile.
"Gu Chi, it was you who sent the photo to big brother!"
Gu Chi feigned surprise, "Was it? Let me check."
He looked down at his phone, only showing his profile, very seriously. A few seconds later, he raised his head with regret, "I slipped and sent it by mistake."
Gu Che gritted his teeth, "Do you think I’ll believe you? Why don’t you switch careers to acting?"
This acting is far better than that of Shan Fengxing just now!
The young artist showed a sincere smile, "So Little Che thinks I’m fit for acting? Unfortunately, I prefer painting, not planning to switch yet."
Gu Che was so mad he fell back.
While the two brothers sparred, Tuanzi held a wafer biscuit like a little hamster, chomping down, her big bright eyes darting back and forth.
Watching the fun didn’t delay her eating.
"Second brother, was that person the one talking bad about you before?"
Tuanzi finished a packet, piled the rest, and clenched her little fist, moving to Gu Che’s side.
"If he bullied you, tell Miaomiao, Miaomiao will teach him a lesson!"
She would protect her brother!
