"A joke is just a joke. I don't mean to offend Seth."
Lenley's deep and elegant voice sounded gently in Bryce's ear, just like the string of cello. It was so beautiful that people couldn't help but be intoxicated. But Bryce didn't have time to savor lenley's voice, because all her attention was focused on her words.
what? Is that all true?
Bryce raised her head abruptly, her eyes widened, and she looked at lenley strangely. "Are you... Is that true? You just did it on purpose? You Because of the shock, those stammering words could not be organized at all. As a result, they could only look at Lan Li like a fool and try to make a "strong condemnation" with their eyes, just like children.
"What's the matter, Bryce?" Colin, who is coming to the theatre, is scanning back and forth between lenley and Bryce.
Bryce's first reaction was to sue - to prove that she wasn't a lunatic. "Just at the end of the blue ray... Tap dance performance... He, er... Made a face at me!" How strange was the word "wink". Bryce couldn't say it. "Prank, it's all a prank. He just made fun of me on purpose. He... Yes, it's a prank..."
Bryce felt more and more like a fool, because it was so unexpected that there was no way to connect her words. Her fragmented way of expression looked like a five-year-old, and even her pronunciation became vague - a bit like a mental retardation.
"A prank?" With question marks all over his head, Colin turned to look at Lan Li - in fact, Colin was also a bit surprised, because Lan Li began to tap dance without warning, which was completely baffling and wonderful, but it was really suspicious, so he needs to verify it now.
However, with a smile on his face, lanli met Colin's line of sight. His calm and calm expression was perfect without any flaws. Instead of defending himself, he gently said, "it's my fault. I just feel that our shooting atmosphere is always too tight. Maybe we need to change the atmosphere to see if we can find the right rhythm, but obviously, It makes Bryce uncomfortable. It's my fault. I'm sorry
Bryce's eyes were wide open. She couldn't believe that she was looking at lanli. Unexpectedly, lanli twisted the facts in such a way. This... This is so cunning!
Sure enough, Colin immediately accepted lanli's statement and said to Bryce with great sincerity, "although I'm a bit surprised, lanli's original intention is good. I think the effect is good. We just discussed that it might be fun to shoot a tap dance version in the sidelights. Bryce, don't blame Langley. I think, are you a little too nervous? There's always something wrong with the rhythm of the performance, and you really need to relax. "
It's true, but that's not her point, OK“ He Bryce only had time to say one word, and then she got stuck. What else can she say?
Especially seeing the innocent lamb's expression on lanli's face, Bryce couldn't help grinding her teeth secretly - cunning, really cunning! Who would have thought that Lan Li, who is always polite and polite, is actually a fox? In silence, she dug a hole and let her jump in foolishly. Now she has no place to apply!
"Bryce?" Colin's voice came again, forcing Bryce to take her eyes back, but she still glared at lenley fiercely to express her depression, "do you need a rest?" Bryce didn't answer, "we think that the line played by Langley on the scene is very good. If your reaction can keep up, then the feeling of the play will come out. Do you need to adjust it?"
Bryce is still struggling, but now she can't tell what she's depressed about, whether it's because the performance is not smooth, or because the estrangement between her and Langley affects the performance, or Langley's pranks pit her
"Give us five minutes." Langley answered instead of Bryce.
Colin doesn't mind, "five minutes? no problem! Lanli, the performance just now is excellent. According to this feeling, there is no problem Colin was also a little excited. He wanted to leave, but he was reluctant to leave. After two steps, he came back again. He thought, "welcome back to the cast, lanli!"
Waiting for Colin to turn around and leave, Bryce is still sulky, immersed in her own thoughts, refusing to communicate, and even forgetting the fact that they are on the set, just angry with herself.
"So now you can look me in the eye?" Blue Li's voice came from the side, which made Bryce gasp. She looked up and ran into her eyes. However, when she saw blue Li's clear and bright eyes, she was stunned. Her impulsive and tangled emotions calmed a little.
"We need to work together for a while, and we need to rub sparks. I think you need to look me in the eye, otherwise, we can't continue our performance."
The explanation of Colin is half true and half false. Langley can really feel the abnormality of the situation. The performance connection between him and Bryce has been cut off. The two people stand in the same picture, but they seem to be two parallel universes. Although they can connect with each other, the reaction and presentation are not quite right. They can't be on the same channel.
It's true that both of them are not performing well; But the chemical reaction between the two people still needs to be linked, otherwise the whole scene will be very awkward and awkward.
Lenley doesn't want to ask about Bryce's personal situation, and he doesn't care about Bryce's wishful thinking. Outside the performance, they are just colleagues - even if Bryce is dissatisfied with lenley because of the previous things, it's no problem; He just needs Bryce standing in front of the camera to be Claire.
So, Langley broke the deadlock in his way. He doesn't want to talk to Bryce at length, he just needs two people to be able to focus on the role.
At this time, Bryce realized that she began to look into the eyes of Langley again - she had made eye contact with Langley many times just in the case of anger. The impulse of that emotion made her forget all the other troubles and just focus on the current situation.
It's a very subtle feeling, and Bryce doesn't know how to describe it, but it's certain that the embarrassment barrier has disappeared. It's not that her personal perception has changed, but that the alienation in the process of cooperation has disappeared - you can hate a person and still maintain professional respect, which is a mature cooperative relationship.
What's more, who can refuse Lan Li? Focus, devotion, professionalism, carefulness and profundity. The ability shown on the professional level is enough to make any opponent actor marvel. More importantly, lanli can always use his way to guide things on the right track without crossing the boundaries.
A small prank, innocuous, but instantly let the carding and estrangement between them all disappear, those disordered mood so precipitation down.
At this time, when Bryce looks at lanli again, she realizes that she is naive and flustered - it's just a wink. Is she still blaming lanli for her charm because of her fawn collision? Wait a minute, fawn? What the hell is that! That's definitely not the point. The point is that she shouldn't mind that prank.
The mood slowly settled down. At last, Bryce was able to look at lanli's line of sight calmly. She didn't worry to speak, but just focused on lanli's line of sight. In this way, she proved her calm and firmness, and didn't flinch and timid at all.
The two men just focused on each other, without any meandering or ambiguity. Instead, it was more like they were fighting in the atmosphere, trying to prove that they were the one who had the upper hand. Soon, Bryce realized that she had lost, not because of the momentum contest, but because she was the only one in the contest from the beginning to the end.
Lanli's calm and calm vision always shows a huge aura, just like adults are meeting the challenge of children, and they are meeting the tit for tat of childish spirit with an attitude of tolerance and understanding.
If the opponent doesn't care at all, then there will be no victory or defeat in this contest - the one who cares has already lost.
Bryce, a little annoyed and depressed, bit her teeth. "So, is that how you deal with embarrassment? Always show off your charm and embarrass the other actors? " Originally, her mood had calmed down, but seeing Lan Li's calm smile, she couldn't help fighting again.
"Embarrassed?" Instead of answering Bryce's question, lanli raised another question. The corner of his mouth went up again. "So, do you think the atmosphere between us is a bit awkward?"
Bryce opened her mouth slightly. The unexpected attack made her flustered again. "Er... Er..." how should she respond? I can't say, "I have always had a problem with you, especially after you came back from the publicity period, I always feel that you are farther away, so I can't look you in the eye directly". This is really stupid! However, if not, what should she say?
Looking at Bryce's gaping appearance, lanli's mood surged again, and his eyes slowly flowed with a smile, "don't worry, I don't mean to investigate the responsibility, don't think about how to fight back, or how to answer, but it seems that we still maintain the same view on the status quo, which means that we can start to work together now."
Bryce was stunned: her speed of thinking always couldn't keep up with Langley's rhythm: she felt like a fool again, but deep in her heart, she had to admit that Langley's way of handling made her feel very comfortable, not only not violated, but also comfortable.
Maybe, she still can't like Langley; But at least, they can cooperate with the performance.
"Yes, I think so, too." Bryce also gave up the tangle and excuse, frankly replied.
