Ch 38 - Newest Top Celebrity x Washed Up Film Emperor: This Can Be Broadcast

The sound of urgent knocking came through the door, followed by the voice of someone calling for Xu Shuangxing.

Inside the room, the young man on the bed moved.

Leather shoes that let out a subtle sound as they stepped down on the floor, a head of dishevelled, inky hair, and skin that looked a pale pink colour under the lights.

Liu Buqun looked at the screenwriter, completely at a loss. He didn’t know if he should call for them to stop, this segment was already completely different from the script, moreover, such large-scale straightforwardness would make it very hard to pass the review1!

He couldn’t make out what Lin Sui was thinking, but as he looked at the atmosphere of the two actors in the scene he felt that it would be such a pity to tell them to stop, so he could only continue watching. If it really didn’t work, they could just film again.

Inside the shot, the good-looking young man walked towards the handsome tall man laying on the ground while undoing his buttons.

But he only did that, and didn’t take off his clothes. Even the shirt that had slid down to his forearms was pulled up as he crouched in front of the man.

When he crouched, he also grabbed a small pair of scissors left on the table and brandished it a few times under the light.

“You want to live, don’t you?”

“Do you want to call for help?”

The young man’s finger slid down the man’s face, until it arrived at his Adam’s apple.

The detective who had landed in this predicament gulped unconsciously, causing his throat to feel a slight itch due to the touch on his neck.

There was hatred and defiance on his face, and his eyes were like two cold stars.

“I’ll give you two choices for being so clever, do you want your throat to be slit, or your heart to be stabbed?”

The young man’s voice was gentle, but it carried unconcealed malice.

He seemed to have taken a great interest in the man’s Adam’s apple, even fondling it admiringly, playing around with it as he gently rubbed and pressed it.

Outside the camera, Liu Buqun excitedly pulled in the shot, filming a close-up of the fingers and the neck.

The shot clearly did not include the two protagonists’ faces, but it gave people an extremely special visual stimulation.

Yan Qin was actually a man who was earnestly stimulated by his senses, if he hadn’t been a decent actor he would have broken down by now, for no other reason than the fact that Lin Sui’s actions were too ambiguous, and they made his throat itch terribly. Fortunately, he couldn’t talk later in the scene, otherwise he definitely would have been exposed when he said his lines.

He and Lin Sui were very close, and he could clearly see Lin Sui’s bare chest which was not revealed in the shot, white and pink, and the vague lines of his abdominal muscles.

He couldn’t avert his gaze, the scene would be ruined if he changed his expression. Yan Qin could only watch like this out of his sense of professionalism, and be forced to smell the faint, warm fragrance coming from Lin Sui’s body. It wasn’t the smell coming from that prop sachet, it was particularly special, Yan Qin didn’t know how to describe it.

It’s just that perhaps the real one got mixed up with the fakes [points finger]
