nChen Jiao looked confused for a moment. He suddenly felt delighted and moved, thinking that she could do this for him.

nZhou Qiu didn’t find any anomaly in his speech and nodded. “Yes, but let’s not mention the title of the movie. After all, this is not a movie promotion meet. The ending is tragic, and it’s not really popular, therefore not many have watched this movie so far.”

nChen Jiao nodded and turned to the big screen. Looking at the small black room, his peach blossom eyes narrowed looking for Yu Yaoyao who was not visible because of the angle of the camera.

nSoon, the host proceeded to Shao Qing and asked for his assessment of Yu Yaoyao’s performance, “What does Mr. Shao think?”

nShao Qing reached for the microphone; his expression was somewhat solemn. “I want to ask Yu Yaoyao a few questions, can I?”

nThe host was startled and apparently did not expect the question he raised.

nArguably speaking, asking questions was not in the rules of the competition. But when he saw director Zhao Yu’s gesture from the corner of his eyes, he nodded immediately, “Okay, then we’ll call the contestant in the black room.”

nAs soon as the angle of the view was switched, everyone, who was just recently stunned by Yu Yaoyao’s extraordinary acting, was flabbergasted.

nIn the little black room, the goddess Yu Yaoyao had already settled down. Her smooth and defined legs resting on the stretcher of the reclining chair. The high-heeled shoes she was wearing earlier were thrown somewhere inside the room.

nHolding the glass, she took a sip of it… drinking the remnants happily.

nEveryone wondered what happened to that pain and sadness seen in her face a while ago. Now, her glamorous little face was full of excitement, with cheeks turning red.

nAs soon as the call went through, Shao Qing and the host had yet to utter a word. Thus, everyone could hear a little, charming voice coming from the little black room.

nYu Yaoyao, who was sitting comfortably, turned back and asked the staff behind. “What kind of beverage is this?”

n“It’s sweet and delicious~” she said, her lips had drink stains on them.

nThe staff, who was unaware that the call was already connected, immediately answered. “It’s a fruit juice named Guozhen.”

n“Guozhen?” Yu Yaoyao’s eyes immediately lit up, making the audience inside the auditorium hold back themselves from laughing.

nI thought she was backstage, silently wiping her tears…

nThis might be another performance coming from the goddess… hahaha!

nShen Yichong’s mouth twitched at the sight of his wife. Little Bun, on the other hand, took his tablet and quietly spoke, ‘Guozhen’. Soon, he called the attention of his father and then pointed at the screen.

n“Dad, let’s buy some of this.”

nShen Yichong said in return, “Let’s make freshly squeezed fruit juice for your mother, instead.”

nThe little bun held his chin and thought, but a moment later he grunted. “Dad, I also want to try drinking this…Guozhen.”

nShen Yichong: ” … ”

nAs of now, the three judges laughed out loud. Shortly after, Shao Qing regained his composure and took the microphone.

n“I still want to ask the most common question. When you were performing just now, were you thinking of something? How were you able to carry out this challenge perfectly? I’m really curious, because ten years ago, I didn’t have the confidence to demonstrate such abundant emotions and precision.”

nWhen he heard the word ‘precision’, Zhou Qiu nodded. To put it bluntly, the director had the biggest influence among the members of the production team. The performance of actors largely depends on the director’s instructions. An actor who can accurately express the right emotions that a director has in mind is rare and needless to say, certainly the director’s favorite among the artists cast in a drama!

nAnd Yu Yaoyao apparently had done just that. She’d emoted this extremely complicated but meticulous sobbing scene to the T. The richness of her emotions lay not only in crying, but also in her powerful control over her every look, micro-expression, and body movements!

nZhou Qiu also looked at the big screen with interest. “I too want to hear Yu Yaoyao’s answer.”

nHe’d just recently discovered that each time this woman performed, she used her own unique imagination and understanding of the character.

nEven the famous screenwriter, Liu Yazhi, who was known for her bad temper and meticulousness in the industry, was also impressed by her.

nEveryone was quiet, almost holding their breaths, anticipating Yu Yaoyao’s answer.

nHowever, Yu Yaoyao, as seen on the big screen, was obviously shocked. Hearing the voice from a speaker made her almost jump off the stool. She looked distressed, her hands shook and a few drops of Guozhen spilled on the ground.

nThe staff at the side drew the microphone towards her and motioned her to answer. She picked up the microphone bitterly. Zhou Qiu smiled. “Just tell us about what you were thinking while performing, especially how you were able to control your expressions.”

nYu Yaoyao tilted her head as if trying to recall. “The challenge said, drink a total of five sips of Guozhen. I thought that beverage would be very difficult to drink. The last time I drank something like that my tongue was sore and numb, and I felt a burning sensation in my throat. So, when I held the glass, I really didn’t want to drink it.”

nZhou Qiu tilted his head,mulling what Yu Yaoyao just said.

nBased on her answer, the grief and frown she expressed was because she didn’t want to drink it?
