574 Crying Easily

Natalie was dancing on a round table, facing Qin Guan. Her back was turned to the camera.

Qin Guan's shirt was wrinkled and the buttons were unfastened, revealing his strong chest and sexy muscles. His legs were open unscrupulously. He looked completely lost and heartbroken.

Natalie performed a beautiful split and exposed herself to him.

Sister Xue was scared, but the whole crew was pretending to work carefully.

They had to act like this. They loved watching a girl strip dance for free!

Qin Guan was holding a slender glass in his hand. He took a 10-pound bill out and stuffed it into the black silk stocking on Natalie’s leg. The girl with the purple wig cheered up and started dancing even more vigorously.

Qin Guan lowered his head and buried his face into his hands, hiding his expression. The powerful man had burst into tears. 

"Is he really sobbing, or is he just pretending?"

"No idea. Let's check later." The man was too busy appreciating the beautiful dance to cry.

Where is your dignity?

Nichols was very confident about Qin Guan though. Crying should be nothing for him considering his Best Actor awards. 

Qin Guan didn't disappoint him. He looked up with tears running down his face, his bloodshot eyes and red eye sockets expressing his sadness.

Natalie seemed absorbed in his sorrow. The same grief was evident on her face.

The two outcasts were like two hedgehogs. They couldn't get close to each other for fear of getting hurt.

A 10-minute dialogue followed. It was difficult to deliver long lines, but they did so perfectly.

No one on set, including idlers like Sister Xue, focused on Natalie’s body. They were all attracted by their splendid performances.

The cameraman recorded the scene calmly. He didn’t come back to his senses until the actors had finished all their lines.

The director started shouting at them happily. The complicated scene had been completed smoothly!

This was a success for Qin Guan, who hadn't realized when he had stopped acting.

Natalie didn't move. This was their last scene in the film, so there was a cantankerous sparkle in her eyes.

Disaster is imminent!

Before Qin Guan could escape, Natalie hit him again!

"Well done, Qin Guan! Your performance exceeded my expectations! I was completely captivated! How did you do that?"

Qin Guan grimaced helplessly. He had learned a lot from that Shakespeare play on the beach, as well as the play he had watched on Broadway.

He had a general idea of what Nichols wanted from him. Unlike his implicit performance in other films, good acting skills were essential this time.

He would rather call "Closer" a play than a film though. Plus, he liked competing with other actors while filming.

Sister Xue showed up in time to save him from the girl.

"My agent is here!"

Qin Guan pointed to Sister Xue, who was waving at him, and left the girl as fast as he could.

The director was talking to Sister Xue happily. At the sight of his favorite actor, he gestured and said, "Let's call it a day. Your last scene is tomorrow, so you can go around London in your free time."

Qin Guan forced a smile at Sister Xue's silent threat and left reluctantly.

I have no time to idle around.

"Okay, there's nothing else for you to do now. Just tell me why you told me to take a look at that street!"

Sister Xue and Qin Guan were walking slowly along the bustling narrow street, which was filled with all kinds of stores and restaurants.

"Take it easy..." Qin Guan looked at the stores carefully. As he passed by a pretty fruit stand, he picked up a green apple.

"How much is it?"

"You just want one? Take it, it's a gift. I like handsome boys."

"Thanks!"

Qin Guan washed the apple under a water pipe.

"Do you want it, Sister Xue?" Before she could answer, he took a big bite. He had just wanted to be polite.
