Transmigrated as the Tortured Female Lead’s Daughter

Chapter 68: Chapter 68: My Mother is Mary Sue

Director Wang was Lu Shanhe’s last disciple, even though Wang was older than Lu Shanhe.

Lu Shanhe valued the appearance and temperament of the actors, and Director Wang inherited his master’s aesthetic judgment and fell in love with Gu Manxi at first sight.

Gu Manxi had always kept a low profile. She wore simple clothes and had light makeup, but that innate temperament – probably the temperament of a heroine – could never be overshadowed.

She was the one and only Mary Sue after all.

“You don’t have to show your face? That’s great~” Gu Chu clapped her little hands, “Mommy, let’s take some photos. Chuchu wants to take many beautiful photos of Mommy. Mommy, you don’t know that all the kids in our kindergarten are envious of Chuchu. Their mommy isn’t as good-looking as my mommy.”

Gu Chu did her best to act cute.

Of course, she knew that Gu Manxi didn’t want to show her face in public because there was a risk of Song Chen finding out.

But Gu Chu’s little plan was working like a charm. She had to let her father find traces of her mother!

What a useless father! Your wife has lived in the same city as you for so many days, yet you still haven’t found out!

With your speed in finding people, you’re not even as good as the stray dogs! No wonder in the original novel, you took more than ten years to find Gu Manxi!

Useless father…

Gu Chu sighed silently in her heart.

“Well…” Gu Manxi looked hesitant.

Director Wang was a shrewd person after all. He could read people’s words and understand their expressions. He immediately added, “Miss Gu, don’t worry. Your face will definitely not be shown in the main film. You will also receive the remuneration for the female lead. Moreover, if you refuse to shoot this time, then Mr. Lin will probably have to wait for a few days before he can continue shooting. Not only will it delay work, it may also have a negative impact. After all, Kid’s fans are all waiting for the advertisement. Also, your daughter is very looking forward to it too.”

His words were reasonable, and they were enough to move Gu Manxi to a certain degree.

The dream of being an actress in Gu Manxi’s heart had never been extinguished. Looking at Gu Chu’s large eyes that were filled with longing, she slowly said, “That’s fine… But, I don’t want the payment. I just want to sign a contract that explicitly says my face will not be shown.”

“That’s easy!” Director Wang was ecstatic. “I’ll get the assistant director to prepare the contract right away. Sister Wang, please help with Miss Gu’s makeup. I’ll go to the set and change the script immediately!”

Director Wang was swift and decisive. He finished his orders in a few words and ran out of the dressing room.

Gu Chu could even hear him humming softly.

Every director would be delighted when they meet an actor they liked.

…

Gu Manxi went to the dressing room to change while Gu Chu and Lin Xiaozhou waited in the dressing room.

Right now, Lin Xiaozhou had already transformed into the elegant NPC, [Huang Jian]. He held the bright moon sword in his hand and had white hair and delicate features. He was a handsome and magnificent young man.

However, the moment he opened his mouth, his craziness would come out straight away…

“Come, come, take two more photos for me. The left side of my face looks good. Yes, this is the angle. Chuchu, do you think my posture is handsome?” Lin Xiaozhou said, “I’ll send two photos to Zhao later. Look at this young master’s incomparably handsome face! Heh. Send two more photos to my Weibo too. Wait, Chuchu, remember to turn on the filter.”

Gu Chu became an expressionless camera machine.

Xiaozhou, do you know how noisy you are…

Lin Xiaozhou opened the photo album and looked at dozens of photos with different poses. Lin Xiaozhou was full of praise. “Amazing, you took better photos than a photographer. Chuchu, you’re really a genius!”

Gu Chu rested her chin on her hand. Of course.

In her previous life, apart from being a hacker, she also had a few sideline jobs such as a photographer. For a period of time, she was hunted down by that bastard. When times were bad, she even played the role of a photographer professionally for a while.

The door of the fitting room opened and Gu Manxi, who was wearing a traditional outfit, appeared…
