One Birth Two Treasures: The Billionaire's Sweet Love Novel - Chapter 1557
Chapter 1557: Are you feeling unwell?
Chapter 1561: Do you not think that you are overdoing it? (2)
She felt sorry that, after their short reunion, she would be apart from them for another extended period.
While filming in this production team, she would be unable to return home for months.
The separation would be longer than reunion.
She might be able to return home intermittently, but this would just be for a short time, and she must return to the set quickly.
Moreover, the promotional tours of ‘The Green Apple’ required her to fly to various locations domestically for road shows; she, therefore, truly needed to treasure every second she could spare.
Inside the car, Mu Yazhe’s face broke into a smile.
She’s back!
He could not wait to give her a fierce hug.
He missed her so much!
His yearnings for her almost spiraled out of control.
As his hands were holding on to the steering wheel, her apologetic voice could be heard over the Bluetooth earpiece he had in one of his ears. “I’m only returning to get some warm clothes. I have to leave immediately after.”
“Leave?”
The smile froze on his face. He suddenly looked unhappy as he cocked his brow. “Where are you going next?”
The word ‘next’ shook her slightly.
‘Where are you going next?’
This question, which did not seem to be a question when it came from his mouth, stumped her actually.
Having not seen him for a week, she missed him very much, too.
Although it was only a week, it felt like a century to her.
Earlier in Paris, she could only communicate with him via text messages. This was because all calls were prohibited during the live recording.
Hence, she could only read off his words lifelessly from the screen and try to imagine his look while he was holding the phone on the other end.
He was suffering just like her.
He had not heard her voice for the past seven days.
Suppressing his longing for her, he held on until now.
The day before, when the woman informed him that she would be returning home today, he could feel his heart soaring for the first time in his life.
Even his assistant was surprised to see the change in him when he stepped into the office this morning.
Over the last few days, he wore only a sullen expression the entire time, from morning until night.
Repressed anger could be detected in his eyes, which stressed his staff tremendously. Those subordinates, who needed to visit his office, would look down and avoid his gaze as they tried their best not to antagonize him in any way.
However, this morning, they could tell that their boss was in a good mood!
Even though he tried hard to remain composed, inwardly, he was looking forward to her return!
Hence, once it reached afternoon, he arranged to finish his meeting early so he could rush home; alas, in the end, he had to hear her telling him that she must leave immediately after.
Where is she going next?
He could not help but be upset!
He stopped the car by roadside as his brows locked in a deep furrow.
The man resisted the strong urge to vent his frustration on her over the phone.
Is your work really that important?
Is it so important that you can ignore my feelings?
For the first time in his life, he really detested her job.
That day, just before she flew off to Paris for recording, she called him in the morning. While on the phone, she told him, with much apprehension, that she could not have telephone conversations during the taping overseas and could only communicate via text messages.
He was greatly displeased when he heard that.
“You are my woman, yet you’re running off to another country to take part in the filming of a love-themed reality show. Now, you’re telling me not to call you! Yun Shishi, don’t you think you are overdoing it?”
Taken aback, she maintained her silence for a long time.
She was clearly guilt-ridden. Finally, after a long pause, she muttered, “Sorry.”
This was the last thing the man wanted to hear from her; thus, he simply hung up the call.
She did not attempt to return the call after that.
The stylist started working on the actress with a look suitable for the ‘date’ at the airport.
The theme this time was romance, with the background set in Paris.
Yun Shishi had a chic and modern style during the first season, which created a big stir on Weibo. Her impeccable look had converted countless people into her fans.
Her team, then, spared no effort in engaging the top styling team for her.
Hence, in all her recent engagements, be it a kickoff ceremony or a launch, she had managed to keep that same modern look in her makeup and fashion. For a while, she was a trend-setter for vibrant style.
She had a face which was highly adaptable and looked good almost naturally with her prolific facial contour and exquisite, deep-set eyes.
On top of that, her skin texture could pull off different styles, which stumped most Asian actresses.
For Louis Vuitton’s endorsement poster, she was given a European-retro look. With vampish eyeliner on her lids, her captivating eyes, as well as her red, kissable lips, were especially alluring to look at.
The fashion industry was shaken.
Even the actress herself was awestruck by her look.
Heavens!
I didn’t know before that makeup could change a woman’s entire presence!
She thought she could not pull off such a dramatic style.
In the end, even her perfectionist manager, who loved to nitpick, had nothing to say when he saw the final poster.
She was just too ravishing.
Her fashion sense was undeniably strong.
He was tempted to pave a way for her in the fashion industry as well!
After her makeup was done, she went through the script one last time before preparing for the official recording.
The recording reeled once the production team arrived.
According to the script, the couple had their second date in Paris, where they visited the Eiffel Tower and Louvre Museum. They were to have an affectionate exchange inside the most romantic restaurant in the city.
This city was considered as the world’s most famous romantic destination; it was also one of the sexiest cities.
Hemingway once said, ‘If you are lucky enough to have lived in Paris as a young man, then wherever you go for the rest of your life, it stays with you.’
The recording for season two of ‘The Love Diary’ was exceptionally long. A few scenes might not take more than a couple of minutes, but they still took time for the team to film.
Although they called this a reality show, there was still a script to follow. If a take was deemed unsatisfactory by the director, it had to be re-done.
For instance, the scene at the airport had to be re-done as the director erased the first take on the spot. This was because the couple was unable to bring out a heartfelt effect in their embrace upon seeing each other.
However, this was not the most tiring part about filming a reality show.
Live recording meant that one would be surrounded by video lenses once the artist was ready to roll.
The car, which was designated for their date, had lenses installed in all four corners of it.
Although the actress was still feeling unwell, she could not show that during the recording. All she could do was bear with the pain and force herself to smile.
This failed to escape the superstar’s keen eyes, though, and he realized at once that something was off.
“What’s wrong?” he asked, his head bowed. “You don’t look well.”
He then reached out and touched her face lightly.
His brows furrowed when his fingertip felt upon her cold sweat.
She was definitely not perspiring due to the hot weather; it was cold outside the window.
The only reason she was breaking out in a cold sweat was that she was feeling unwell.
Is she sick?
He could already tell that she was not in top form when they were at the airport. Her expression was rather stiff, and that carried through subtly even in her smile.
