Chapter 287: To Define First Love

Yun Xiangxiang didn’t have any scenes to film this day . She took the time to go for the interview He Wei had arranged for her . With Milles’ help, her interview would be on the cover of a monthly . As for which monthly she would appear on, that was to be decided .

He Wei brought Yun Xiangxiang to meet SQ’s management after she was done with the interview . The management was a fashionable French lady .

She was SQ’s creative director . And she was only twenty-nine . A promising young lady, one might say .

“Yun, do you have a boyfriend?” Chloe blurted out .

From the moment she saw Chloe, Yun Xiangxiang thought the lady was trying to see through her, but Yun Xiangxiang knew she wasn’t an enemy .

Yun Xiangxiang chose not to answer this question . “My apologies . I don’t like to talk about personal matters during my work . ”

“I’m sorry for the discomfort I must have caused you,” Chloe answered nicely . “I just think that a gorgeous lady like you must have many suitors . Lipsticks go well with love . ”

Yun Xiangxiang was here to talk about SQ’s lipsticks . “No . I don’t share the same sentiments . Lipsticks should be tied to the user’s emotions . ”

Those who were not in love could use lipsticks too . On some occasions, it was out of courtesy . Some regard it as their hobby . Some had to use it for work . There were a lot of reasons to use different shades of lipsticks .

But Yun Xiangxiang thought the deciding factor was what the user was feeling like on that day .

“You don’t seem to have any lipstick applied today,” Chloe looked at Yun Xiangxiang’s rosy lips .

“I want you to see me in my most natural state,” Yun Xiangxiang answered calmly . “I need you to understand that I can put on any lipstick color you throw at me . ”

“Your confidence is fascinating . And it works well with our brand concept . Here’s to our collaboration,” Chloe toasted Yun Xiangxiang .

The business talk ended there, but Chloe didn’t pry further into Yun Xiangxiang’s relationship .

They talked about China’s culture and its specialties . Yun Xiangxiang tried her best to describe China .

She talked about the people, the views, and the unique things there . She could see Chloe’s admiration building up . Chloe had never been to China .

They had a meal together and said goodbye amicably .

“Brother Wei, don’t you think Chloe was looking at me strangely?” Yun Xiangxiang went into the car .

“Maybe she’s curious about you . ” He Wei didn’t notice anything wrong .

Since SQ was looking for a spokesperson, they had to know everything about her .

Yun Xiangxiang shook her head . This was a woman’s instinct . Yun Xiangxiang couldn’t explain it to He Wei .

“There’s nothing between you and Chloe,” He Wei was at least sure about that .

Yun Xiangxiang didn’t know which part of Chloe felt wrong . She said nothing more .

“If you think it’s not okay, we can give this up,” He Wei noticed Yun Xiangxiang’s reaction toward this collaboration .

“That won’t work . ” Yun Xiangxiang shook her head .

He Wei must have spent a lot of time and effort to get to this point in the endorsement .

They shouldn’t give up just because she felt weird . Even if He Wei would let her, she couldn’t accept it .

“It matters not . Paris has a lot of makeup companies we can choose from,” He Wei didn’t think much about it .

Profit wasn’t the only consideration in collaborations . It needed to be amicable, or else nobody would pour much effort into it . A collaboration rife with enmity would be disastrous . It would be better if they didn’t work together . At least they wouldn’t be enemies .

“It’s not certain if I’m going to get that endorsement . Let’s see what happens . They might not even choose me,” Yun Xiangxiang stopped this conversation from going on .

They didn’t hear from SQ over the next few days, but neither Yun Xiangxiang or He Wei were in a hurry .

Yun Xiangxiang seldom appeared together with the protagonists in “First Love . ” She would only have an intimate scene with the male protagonist while he was swimming in his fantasy .

Kleon, the actor who played the protagonist, came to Milles . “I think you should add a kiss here . It will work better . ”

Kleon was a twenty-seven-year-old French actor . He was a rising star who was just starting out in the filming world .

Milles chose new, popular actors for “First Love . ” He had one rule: All of the actors must be good-looking .

Of course, they must be excellent in their craft too, which the protagonists delivered . She might not share a scene with the female protagonist, but Yun Xiangxiang did watch how she acted .

What Kleon suggested to Milles was the scene where he imagined sharing a good time with Amy among the romantic sea of lavender .

The original script described that the protagonist would hold Amy’s hand and turned back to smile lovingly at her, while the sun shone upon them .

Yun Xiangxiang had been getting along with Kleon for a few days . He was crazy about acting . She trusted that his request for the kiss wasn’t to take advantage of her but to create the atmosphere .

Milles pondered on it . “What do you think, Yun?”

Milles respected his actors . He thought that Kleon’s suggestion was fine, but he needed to respect what Yun Xiangxiang thought .

“I don’t see the need,” Yun Xiangxiang thought it through . “I know you think adding a kiss will show the love more,” she said .

“Yes . ” Kleon nodded .

“But this is “First Love,” not passionate love,” Yun Xiangxiang inexplicably smiled . “I think falling in love for the first time should be a bit more awkward . A bit more reserved . A bit more simple and a bit purer . ”

That was what Song Mian made her feel . Their first love was merely clean .

Of course, they would kiss when the time called for it . But she thought that everyone would cherish their first love carefully, instead of going at it with a passion .

Kleon agreed with Yun Xiangxiang . His hand was steepled under his chin . “Yun has a point . But according to the script’s description, I think that the scene wouldn’t be layered enough . ”

Milles pondered over it . Finally, he decided to make a slight change in the scene with both the actors’ opinions .

The protagonist would hold Amy’s hand as they sauntered among the sea of lavender . As they stood under the sunlight, the sun’s brilliant gleam would cast down upon them, veiling the couple under its light . The protagonist would hold Amy’s face lovingly .

His fingertips would slide into the hair on her sides . Their eyes would meet, their gazes seeing deep within their souls . The scene would end with the protagonist kissing Amy’s forehead as a sign of his loyalty .

This innocent, dreamy beauty was what first loves should be like .

Kleon noticed that Yun Xiangxiang was an actress with her own opinions and could delve deep into her characters’ psyche . She was different from any Chinese actor he had in mind .

When they shared a scene, he noticed that Yun Xiangxiang could make him immerse himself in the scene . From then onward, he would frequently talk with Yun Xiangxiang about their dialogues .

When Yun Xiangxiang was done with this day’s filming, she suddenly received many bouquets of roses . One type of rose took up one bouquet .
