Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

Chapter 382 The Script Needs Some Tweaks



It wasn't until the first half of the movie had finished playing that everyone snapped out of the captivating world it had drawn them into.

Ye Fei, however, had spotted another highlight in this segment besides Xu Weier: a minor role played by Gu Xuehan as a little flower sprite. Though her screen time was brief, just a few minutes, the portrayal of this persistent and resilient sprite was as unforgettable as Xu Weier's depiction of the fairy.

Feeling fortunate that he had brought Gu Xuehan into the company, Ye Fei glanced around and noticed her sitting alone in the corner of the hall, her eyes meeting his. He gave her an encouraging smile and a thumbs-up.

Gu Xuehan responded with a faint smile, but her stunning face turned red, and she slowly lowered her head, causing Ye Fei's heart to skip a beat.

"How was it? How was it? I did okay, right?"

As soon as the movie ended, Xu Weier couldn't contain her eagerness to ask. Having aspired to be in this industry since childhood, she was keen on achieving success.

"Very good!" Ye Fei also gave Xu Weier a thumbs-up, which immediately made her beam with pride.

Zhao Zhi nodded in agreement, sincerely saying, "Indeed, I didn't expect it to turn out this well. After reading the script, I was already convinced that the movie would be a hit, but you've exceeded my expectations. Especially Weier, you've truly brought that adorable fairy to life."

Hearing Zhao Zhi's praise, Xu Weier became even more elated. She tossed her pretty face at Ye Fei, as if to say, "You didn't think I could do it, did you? Now see how amazing I am?"

Ye Fei deliberately scoffed with a smile, "Auntie Zhao, you don't need to keep praising her. This girl's personality is just like the character in the script. If she couldn't pull off a role that suits her so well, she might as well give up on being an actress."

Ye Fei's words immediately wiped the smug look off Xu Weier's face. She glared at Ye Fei indignantly, her teeth clenched as if she wanted to bite him.

"You can't say that," Zhao Zhi interjected. "Even if it's a natural performance, without talent, it's easy to mess up. After all, life and movies are two completely different things."

"You're the best, Auntie Zhao. Unlike this jerk who's always putting me down!" Xu Weier cheered up again, hugging Zhao Zhi's arm and calling her "auntie" just like Ye Fei did.

Zhao Zhi smiled and patted Xu Weier's arm, casting a thoughtful glance at Ye Fei. She could see that although the two young people seemed to be bickering, Xu Weier valued Ye Fei's opinion the most. However, Ye Fei seemed a bit oblivious, not showing any particular interest in Xu Weier.

If Ye Ningsuan knew that Zhao Zhi had such thoughts, she might have been both amused and exasperated.@@novelbin@@

Was Ye Fei really oblivious? Could anyone in Wang Hai City be more of a ladies' man than him? It was just that he seemed a bit wooden when it came to Xu Weier. It seemed that for them to understand each other, they would need a catalyst.

After the big screen was turned off, everyone left the screening room quite satisfied. Ye Fei called Situ Ying, Mu Ling and her daughter, and Gu Xuehan into his office, had them all sit down, and then asked, "The first half of 'Fairy Flight' has been very successful. I hope the second half can achieve the same effect. There are still a few flaws in those fantastical scenes, but they're already exceptionally well done. Do we have a hidden computer whiz in our company?"

"You didn't know? Besides being great at directing, Sister Ying is also a computer whiz. She personally created those virtual landscapes," Xu Weier quickly said.

Ye Fei was taken aback, inwardly marveling at his good fortune. He smiled at Situ Ying and said, "I didn't know Miss Situ had such talents in this area."

Situ Ying blushed slightly from Ye Fei's praise and said, "I'm just an amateur. Since we haven't found an expert in this field yet, I took it upon myself to do it. We should definitely hire a professional in the future."

"No, you've done an excellent job. I believe even professionals would struggle to match your work. There are just a few minor imperfections in the details. We can tweak them together later," Ye Fei affirmed.

Although his main focus wasn't on production, with his current mindset, he could easily handle it. That's why he wanted to lend a hand and get involved.

"Oh? Has President Ye studied this field as well?" Situ Ying asked in surprise, finding it hard to believe that someone as young as Ye Fei had put effort into this area.

"Not exactly studied, but I did pick it up as a hobby a few days ago," Ye Fei smiled faintly, not wanting to dwell on the topic. He then asked, "By the way, can we make some changes to the script for 'Fairy Flight'?"

"Huh?" Situ Ying asked curiously, "Does President Ye think there's something wrong with it?"

"No, the script is perfect," Ye Fei quickly said, "I just think we could add more scenes for Xuehan. I think she did a great job."

As soon as Ye Fei said this, the girls all laughed. Xu Weier said, "Do you really need to remind us? After Sister Ying saw Xuehan's part, she had already added more scenes for the little flower sprite in the later part."

Situ Ying also said, "Yeah, we didn't expect Xuehan to act so well, so naturally we want to focus on nurturing her. I believe when our play is released, it won't just make Weier a star, but Xuehan as well."

Hearing that Ye Fei wanted to give her more screen time, Gu Xuehan was deeply touched. Without caring that there were many people around, she cast a soft, affectionate glance at Ye Fei.

Gu Xuehan's tender look didn't escape the notice of the other girls, but their reactions were different. Ye Ningsuan smiled knowingly, while Zhao Zhi looked thoughtful. It seemed that Ye Fei was quite charming.

In just this short time, she had already seen two girls taking an interest in him, and both were exceptionally talented.

Mu Ling and her daughter felt a bit uncomfortable. However, Mu Ling quickly adjusted her mindset, casting aside the sudden pang of jealousy. Xu Weier, on the other hand, found a good reason for herself: Xuehan is my good friend. How could I let her like this bad guy?

Only Situ Ying seemed oblivious to all this, still wearing an excited expression.

Feeling a bit uneasy under the girls' gazes, Ye Fei quickly laughed it off, saying, "How could it be just two? People will definitely remember you as the brilliant director too!"

Situ Ying smiled faintly and said, "I just want my script to be made into a movie. I've never thought about becoming famous."

"At that time, you might not have a choice," Ye Fei laughed heartily, joking, "I bet many companies will try to poach you. Just don't abandon us then."

Situ Ying smiled faintly again but didn't respond. However, Ye Fei understood that even if those companies offered mountains of gold, Situ Ying wouldn't leave Lingyun.

Although he hadn't spent much time with her, Ye Fei could tell she was that kind of person. Otherwise, she wouldn't have stayed in a company with no achievements for years.
