The stage manager bitterly expressed, “Miss Tong, can you not tease me?”
“Hehe.” When the young girl heard this, she laughed.
Probably because someone mentioned drinking water, Tong Jing Nian also found herself to be thirsty.
She picked up the bottle next to her and gently took a sip from the straw. When she suddenly thought of something, she looked at them with big almond eyes, “Who is the male lead?”
Some remnant of the lipstick transferred onto the straw wiping some of it off her lips.
People who are in the makeup profession have some sort of obsessive-compulsive disorder. Jiang Tiao quickly picked up a lip brush and filled it in for her.
“You still don’t know?” The stage manager squatted and unscrew the cap.
Because they are unsure of public reception, the role of Xue Shao was kept a secret from the outside world.
The director was also mysterious and didn’t say a word to anyone in the crew.
“Oh right, little brother, quickly tell us who he is.” Tong Jing Nian playfully pouted, her voice dripping with honey.
Even Jiang Tiao who is also a girl felt her head turn numb from hearing it.
For the stage manager, who is a man, he would definitely not be immune to it. He quickly dropped the suspense, “Of course, it is Fu Ting Chuan.”
When that name entered her ears, Jiang Tiao’s hand froze.
Her heart stopped as if an invisible hand is blocking its path.
Like a deer caught in a headlight.
“Ai….so it is him….” Tong Jing Nian furrowed her delicate brows.
She didn’t expect that the other party would be an experienced veteran. It is like a mountain of pressure placed on the young newcomer.
“Didn’t he pass off the role?”
“Can the words of the media be trusted? The opinion of the masses would guarantee the rating. Even if Handsome Brother Fu did initially reject the offer, how can he withstand our silver-tongued Director Tong.” The stage manager went out the door, “I’m gonna go first. Teacher Fu will arrive in an hour. Xiao Jiang, prepare yourself and find what style would fit his Xue Shao.”
“En.” Jiang Tiao was able to get her emotions under control and ran her hand through Tong Jing Nian’s hair.
The girl’s black and soft hair flowed through her hand like silk.
What the stage manager said is right, the fan support largely determines the final result of the cast.
The company in charge of the production, Huaqi Media, is the largest in the industry, so naturally, whether it is the protagonist or the supporting roles their popularity is definitely not lacking.
Of course, the script also wouldn’t be lacking.
From the moment the director announced on Weibo that they are casting roles for the drama, tens of thousands of fans were already recommending their favorite actors in the comments.
This topic was particularly very lively.
And amongst the outcry, there was a particular male star who was on the top of the list.
Of course, that is Fu Ting Chuan.

While she waits for the male lead, Jiang Tiao informed the assistant and went to the washroom.
As makeup artists, they would often have to restrain themselves from using the washroom, especially in the case when the makeup takes a lot of effort and time. They would frequently have to stay in place for three to four hours. Occasionally after they are done applying it, the actors would be dissatisfied and they have to remove and do it all over again.
In front of this huge star, it is hard to say what temper he has.
Filming itself has to be done hurriedly, so every second counts. How can they let you leave in the middle of everything?
So on a daily basis, Jiang Tiao would minimize her water intake and only relieve herself in between gaps of the actors.
Jiang Tiao walked out of the female washroom and headed toward the vanity unit.
The faucet is motion censored so when she waved her hand, cool water flowed out.
She squeezed a fair amount of soap on her hand. When applying makeup, inevitably, there would be some colors that would stain the fingers and palm. Because shooting time takes a long time and to avoid the actor’s makeup from coming off too quickly, they have to apply long-lasting makeup so that it will stick to the skin.
Jiang Tiao bent down and carefully rubbed away the residue on her hand.
After a while, both her hands were covered in gray foam, not white.
Seeing that almost all of it is washed away, she waved her hand over the faucet again.
The water did not flow out.
She waved her hands again, closer and farther, but still, the water did not pour out.
Strange. Jiang Tiao moved to another sink.
While she was fighting with the faucet, she didn’t notice a tall and lean figure emerging from the male washroom on her left slowly walking her way.
One hand didn’t work, so she waved two hands. She put it under the faucet and waved her hands, completely focused on the faucet.
She feels like she is seriously suffering from Parkinson’s disease.
Is it because her hand is covered in too much foam which is why it couldn’t sense it?
At this time, a distinct hand passed over the top of her hand.
The hand past by very fast like a slight breeze.
The water flowed out and poured onto Jiang Tiao’s hand.
“Go wash your hands.” The man’s bright and spring-like voice penetrated her ears.
He walked to the sink next to hers.
Jiang Tiao nodded her head in thanks and washed her hands. The dirty foam flowed down into the drain, disappearing from sight.
She swings her hands drying them off and turned to try to dispel the awkward atmosphere with the kind-hearted man.
The man had already finished washing his hand and walked over to the paper towel dispenser on the wall.
Jiang Tiao was only able to see 60 degrees of his profile.
Her blood abruptly stopped flowing and then immediately rushed into her heart and brain. Jiang Tiao stood in place and stared at him.
She stared at him with wide eyes.
Jiang Tian’s ear blasted countless sounds.
It’s like, for a moment, all the flowers in the courtyard are blossoming.
