After Turning Down the Proposal, The Whole World Waits For Me to Remarry - Chapter 25

Chapter 25: Weird Atmosphere

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“Uh-huh, the issue of ‘The lines are the same, but the emotions are different’ actually requires the management of micro-expressions,” Yuna said generously, facing the camera.

“Oh? What is a micro-expression?” Linxia Entertainment’s Willy Ji immediately supported her.

“It’s the control of some small muscles on the face. If the micro-expressions are not well controlled, it will feel like everything is very stiff.”

As she spoke, Yuna began to demonstrate according to the scenes on the big screen. “For example, for the phrase ‘I love you,’ the female lead will say it with love in the early stages; in the later stages, the same word will have hidden hatred.”

Everyone was amazed when they saw Yuna complete the change in the atmosphere of her lines in just a few seconds. Even John Wei, who was sitting beside Chloe, could not help but say, “I’ve learned! I’ve learned!”

Meanwhile, Chloe followed the crowd’s applause. She clenched her teeth tightly as she watched Yuna receive the attention of everyone present.

“Hey, Chloe, I heard that you’re also very good at acting.. Can you show us?” Independent female artiste Shirley Ma suddenly stuck her head out and said to Chloe.

There was no such thing as Shirley’s line! Why did she suddenly cue her? Chloe noticed that everyone’s eyes were on her, and she was a little embarrassed for a moment. “Yeah, eh, sure.”

Shirley, who had taken the initiative to mention Chloe, didn’t mean to make Chloe more visible. She was very unhappy with Chloe. She thought that a person like Chloe, who had no acting skills, bribed the bloggers to boast about her good acting skills. It was so hypocritical.

In addition, she had some grudges with Chloe previously, so Shirley deliberately embarrassed Chloe. When Yuna heard that someone mentioned Chloe, she turned to look at Chloe calmly.

When she treated Chloe as her stepsister, she could tolerate her shortcomings. Even when she carelessly missed the cue during recordings or was slandered by others, she would feel very sorry for her. She would defend her and would use an alternate account to help control the criticism. 

But now, when she saw Chloe, there was only hatred for being cheated in her heart. Other than revenge, there were no other emotions.

Chloe looked at the lines and scenes on the big screen and stammered for a few words. She braced herself to read the two contrasting lines, but her performance was such a sharp contrast compared to Yuna.

Chloe’s miserable act made her look like she had facial paralysis, Director Liu in the studio instructed in disgust, “Cut it, cut it, if we broadcast this, Cassin will find trouble with us again.”

After watching the replay of the previous segment, Director Liu scratched his chin and asked the editor beside him in puzzlement, “Aren’t Chloe and Yuna Sisters? They used to be very close. Why does the atmosphere between the two seem a little weird now?”

Chloe, in particular, stared at Yuna as if she owed her money, Yuna likewise, and had been ignoring her younger sister.

“I don’t know, one has the surname Jiang, and the other is Xiao. I don’t think they’re close,” the film editor replied casually without even raising his head.

Director Liu recalled how Yuna had treated him to several meals to take on roles for Chloe. She had even put in good words and smiled apologetically at him. He was puzzled and could only instruct the host to continue with the next segment.

“Alright, I believe that during the discussion and Ms. Yuna’s demonstration earlier, everyone is at ease now, and I have learned a lot from her. Now, let’s move on to the next segment — the Heartbeat Roulette.”

The Heartbeat Roulette was the segment that was the most well-received by the audience and also the segment that gave the artistes the biggest headache. There were four sections in the roulette: Corridor of Horror, True and False Masks, Weird Scent Kitchen, and Race to Escape.

When Chloe heard this, she immediately wanted to raise her hand and take the initiative to turn the roulette.

When she participated in the program previously, her manager told her that there was a trick in turning the roulette. As long as she used her strength well, whatever game the group played would depend on the script, as the company has discussed with the director before filming.

As long as she managed to choose True and False Masks, she would have plenty of ways to embarrass Yuna and destroy her character!

Just as the host asked, “Then who will be the one to turn this roulette?”

Unexpectedly, when Chloe raised her hand, Willy, Shirley, and the others around her said, “Let our senior Yuna do it.”

As a result, Chloe raised her hand in the mid-air awkwardly and then put it down awkwardly.
