Chapter 107 Forgetting her lines (2/2)
In today's scene, they were going to shoot the psycho side of Li Xiaolu's character. The director gave them a few tips as they both took their position.
”Action ”
Li Roulan who portrayed the character of Zhi Hua stood nervously in front of her sister. In today's scene she has to confront her psycho sister about whether she liked her boyfriend too.
”Sister.... ” Zhi Hua nervously called.
”Yes? ” Zhi Xing who was played by Li Xiaolu asked.
”S-sister.... I... wanted to ask y-you about.... ”
”Speak clearly Huaer, do you need something?” Zhi Xing asked without looking up from her laptop.
”S-sister,I wanted to ask you about.... about... do you also love Lui Wei? ” Li Roulan shivered.
Finally Li Xiaolu looked up from her laptop and glanced at the shivering figure of Li Roulan. ”Yes... ” she smiled, ”I love him. ”
Li Roulan took a step back in shock and stammered, ”B-but.... But... ”
Taking a deep sigh, Li Xiaolu kept her laptop on the table. ”See Zhi Hua, I wanted to talk to you about this. I think you should breakup with Lui Wei.... ”
”No! ” Zhi Hua (Li Roulan) yelled.
”No? ” Zhi Xing (Li Xiaolu) asked raising her eyebrows dangerously.
The pressure and aura emanating from Li Xiaolu was so strong that Li Roulan was completely in shock. She opened her mouth to say her lines, but nothing came out. She was totally blank.
The director waited for a few second before yelling ”cut”. Li Roulan apologised to everyone embarrassedly before going through her lines once again.
The scene again started as they took their position. ”No? ” Zhi Xing asked.
”Sister..... Sister..... I... but... ” Li Roulan paused. Nothing came out of her mouth. She again forgot her lines. She didn't know what was happening with her, just by looking into Li Xiaolu's eyes made her forgot her lines.
This continued and almost 10-15 takes were done. Everybody was frustrated by Li Roulan. Sometimes she would forgot her lines, something she would jumble her words and sometimes she just stood there like a statue.
