Chapter 583: Finally, The Perfect Portrayal Of The Character

The fog had finally dispersed.

That was her first teardrop in the human world.

The foxes of the Snow Mountain never cried, because the Snow Mountain was a haven to all foxes. They lived there in peace and serenity, ignorant to all hardships, farewells and pain.

Xiao Bai continued forward. The dust on the ground moved out of her way, leaving her shoes as spotless as before.

Right then, a hand appeared to tug at the corner of her shirt.

Xiao Bai looked down and saw an old man as old as the Grandmother. Wait… that was not the right statement. The Grandmother was old, but her old age came with her vast power. The Grandmother was the strongest and most powerful entity on the Snow Mountain. Standing next to her, one would be overwhelmed by her immense vitality. On the contrary, one could only detect loneliness and melancholy from this old man.

It was the kind of sorrow that indicated the end of a life.

“Young lady, please spare me some food.”

The old man stared at her with his lifeless eyes. The skin on his hands resembled the bark of shrivelled old trees, like his life force was drained from him.

Xiao Bai was overcame by a sudden wave of sadness. Her red lips gently quivered, but she shook her head. She was not carrying any food with her. When they were in the mountains, they survived by eating wild fruits or snow. There were also times when they did not eat at all. She had never consumed any human food, neither did she know the right way to eat the food. Hence, she had no food with her.

The old man’s pale eyes turned grey and spiritless as the final spark slowly faded away.

The only thing I wanted was to not die from starvation.

Xiao Bai looked at her own hands. She could not conjure up any food.

She continued her journey, witnessing many deaths along her way. Some parents were crying with the dead bodies of their children in their arms, while some children sat on the bodies of their dead parents, confused and not understanding what had happened.

She could see the deadly aura as it continuously attacked every single human being and gradually took away their lives and vitality.

But, the deadly aura moved out of her way, avoiding her.

She raised her head, gazing straight ahead at the boundless plains. The only thing she saw was the grief that seemed to dissolve into the freezing winter night.

“Cut,” Director Jin yelled.

Director Jin uncurled his fist, then wiped off the sweat in his palm on his shirt.

This time, he could finally finish shooting the entire scene without cutting it off half way. Finally, Yan Huan could portray the emotions perfectly. Her gaze spoke of the deepest feelings of the character and Director Jin was very satisfied with it. This was the little fox that he had always asked for.

The little fox was not a naive fool. In fact, she was very intelligent. She had a pair of eyes that could see through everything, capable of perceiving every situation in the world.

That was the perfect gaze.

Director Jin, Yan Huan and the other members of the crew heaved a unified sigh of relief.

She was the main actress. If she had failed to impersonate the character flawlessly, then it would be very difficult for them to continue filming. The progress and the quality of the film would deteriorate. When the production team was not satisfied with the outcome, it would be illogical to expect the audience to enjoy the movie.

These days, the audience were no longer gullible. If they had intended to fool the audience with a substandard plot and movie, the audience would not let it go easily. Before they began the production of the movie, Yan Huan promised to commit her uttermost, creating a work that would fulfill both the crew and the audience’s expectations.

Otherwise, besides the obvious fact that the 100 million they invested would go down the drain, their reputation would be ruined as well.

Despite feeling relieved, they were simultaneously aware of the pressure on their shoulders. The filming had barely started and they had already encountered multiple hurdles. They could only foresee the challenges they will face in the future.

With that, they had to prepare themselves mentally as the filming of this movie would not be an easy task.

Just like before, Yan Huan would wake up early every morning to jog, training her body and sustaining her health. She must be physically fit to be able to work. If she was sick, she would not be able to do anything at all, not to mention going in front of the cameras.

Ye Shuyun did a good job at managing the meal plans. Yan Huan reckoned that the menu put together by Ye Shuyun was the best and most nutritious one that she had ever seen at while working. They were provided with three different meals every day. The meals were affordable, yet very delicious. The entire cast and all of the production staff anticipated chow time every day.

Everyone needed something to look forward to in their daily lives.

Office workers awaited payday, students anticipated their school holidays while pregnant ladies wait nervously for their newborns.

For the production crew of White Fox, they were not that excited for the premiere of the movie. Instead, they looked forward to their menus everyday.

“Son, how do you think I look?” Ye Shuyun asked the phone in her hand. She had not seen Lu Jin and her son for a long time, but somehow she did not miss them at all.

“You look ravishing,” Lu Yi replied honestly. Ye Shuyun’s reflection was shown on the corner of the screen. Indeed, she appeared to be much healthier and more full of zest than before.

“How’s your dad?” Ye Shuyun asked about Lu Jin. Since they have a nanny back home, it was impossible for him to starve.

“Dad is heating up the milk,” Lu Yi said as he picked up the glass on the table. When he was about to drink from the glass, Lu Jin came out of the kitchen. He was now staying with his son. The nanny could cook for both of them and his daily meals would be well taken care of. With that, he no longer had to stay at home alone. Besides, he could share his son’s milk as well.

A full bottle of milk was perfect to share among two.

Lu Jin walked toward Lu Yi and took a seat beside him.

“Are you having fun there?” he asked sarcastically as he sipped his milk, as though he resented his wife for leaving him behind.

“What do you mean? I’m not having fun. I’m here to work,” Ye Shuyun retorted with a straight face. She was not pleased with Lu Jin’s words. She took her job seriously, which was to take good care of the entire cast and crew. Everyone was really fond of her and she had built good relationships with all of them. Back then, these were the people she could only admire from afar. But now, they were her friends who exchanged jokes with her and even learned aerobic dances from her.

“Fine. It’s work,” Lu Jin relented. He could not fight her and had no intention to argue with her. Nonetheless, he would always be the loser in an argument with her. Lu Yi stood up with the glass in his hand. He returned to his room with his laptop, knowing that his parents were going to have a lengthy discussion. Back in his room, he turned on the laptop. Once the video call was connected, Yan Huan’s face showed up on the screen as if she had been waiting for his call.

She waved her hand excitedly when she saw Lu Yi.

Lu Yi gently quirked the corner of his lips and chuckled the next second. He placed the glass by his lips and drank the milk sip by sip. He savored the delicious milk just like before.

The silky smooth texture of the milk represented his feeling of serenity at this moment. Every movement and smile of the woman in front of him soothed his heart.

He leaned his back against his chair, opting to remain silent. He knew that Yan Huan was still busy. She was working hard to memorise her lines as there were other scenes to film the next day.
