Chapter 126

The reporter then turned to the director and asked, "Well, director Li, is there any kiss scene in the TV
series between Melissa and Eric?" "How many kisses will they have?"

Hearing that, director Li had no choice but to pick up the microphone and make a joke, "Ah-ha, in fact,
it is only acting on the script that they were childhood playmates who admired each other. They were
finally engaged, but not long after the engagement, Hans played by Eric died, so……"

All the other actors couldn't help but smile. Then the reporter asked again, "Did they kiss each other?"

However, director Li was very clever. At this time, he thought of the hype and said: "It depends on the
situation. Maybe we will use some false actions to shoot and the actors might have real performance.
But it depends on whether the actors are happy or not." And director Li's answer meant that he didn't
answer the question, which certainly made everyone look forward to it. When the reporters came back
to report, many people would be curious about whether the couple in the gossip were kissing, so the
TV play attracted more attention.

The reporter said, "I heard that Eric will play the scenes first. And Eric's shooting is little, so could it be
finished in one day?" "How about waiting for the kiss scene of Eric and Melissa?"

The atmosphere was really heated. They were waiting to find something between Melissa and Eric.
Thus, if there were any sexy photos of the two, the photos of them would be taken and put on the
newspaper, which would certainly increase the sales. Thus, if there were any other sexy photos of
them, people would surely scramble to take photos of them.

But director Li was not a fool. He said, "Of course. We should cooperate with Eric's work. Since Eric
seldom shot in TV series, his play can be finished in one day." "But……" He deliberately made a fool of
her by saying, "The opening was crowded with so many people at today's opening ceremony. We have
to keep the filming sealed for fear that unnecessary people will affect the work. Thus, I'm afraid that no
one will see the kissing scene of Eric and Melissa from today's shooting."



The reporters were in an uproar and talked about it. Someone protested and asked director Li to come
in and watch the movie. But no matter how the reporters wanted to do, director Li didn't change his
mind. He just laughed a lot and was tactless.

Hearing all these, Melissa got to know how good these directors were at hype. It turned out that it was
all true in TV dramas. Besides, she and Eric had something else to talk about and any piece of news
they got was the focus of people's attention. Then she turned to look at Eric who just smiled, as if he
didn't care about the director's and the reporter's questions. He even held her hand tightly.

Seeing the frankness on Eric's face, Melissa instantly understood that all the actors and actresses had
to cooperate with the director's actions. And it wouldn't be a big deal to take advantage of them, so she
just smiled at Eric politely.

She didn't expect these reporters to be so sensitive. She had thought that they all paid attention to
director Li. But as soon as she looked at Eric with a smile, she was caught by them. The cameras
flashed and the flash was a hundred times bright, which made Melissa so embarrassed. She could only
lower her head, thinking that these reporters would make up stories again tomorrow. Maybe she was
flirting with Eric. Even, they looked at each other with deep affection and smiled at each other.

As Melissa raised her head, she caught a cold glance at Colin. He stared at them, his lips curled into a
sinister smile, like a demon about to flare up. She didn't care at all. It would be better if Colin hated her
for that. She lifted her head, pretending to look at Eric and being smiled more brilliantly this time. She
pretended to do this so that Colin could see it. She invited those reporters for a photo because she
wanted to simulate Colin's self-esteem.

In the end, seeing that Colin angrily left, Melissa breathed a sigh of relief.

After the press conference, people moved to the sealed film set to shoot. All the reporters and fans
were stopped outside. Only actors and staff were left on the film set. It was much quieter now. The



makeup artists hurried to dress up for the actors, make-up and get dressed. The crew were busy
setting the scene.

Today's scene was Eric's. He was a big shot, so all the people on the crew had to cooperate with him
on his schedule, just like the ancient costume drama that Melissa shot before. Everyone had to
cooperate with Sophia. But this time, Eric was much greater than Sophia. Therefore, the staff's attitude
was stricter than ever.

Melissa had a great deal of scene with Eric, so she was the first makeup artist to do the makeup. When
she came out of the room, Eric hadn't finished yet. She got a little nervous while waiting outside. She
hadn't played such an important role for a long time, but she got rusty. She got nervous as soon as she
thought of her opponent play later and she started to read the script.

Zack bought her a bottle of juice out of kindness. But Melissa waved her hand and refused, "No, I'm
afraid that the lip gloss will be ruined."

At last, Zack had no choice but to drink the milk himself. He said, "You don't have to worry about it so
much. It's not the first time with Eric to shoot a movie. What are you afraid of?" "You're from a
professional family, aren't you afraid of acting?"

Melissa shook her head and said, "No. Eric is different from before. He's a big star and he only plays
movies in recent years. Besides, he's co-operation with well-known actors. He must have high
requirements for the other actors. I'm afraid that if I don't meet his requirements later, it'll be
troublesome."

Zack laughed and said, "Do you think he will scold you?" I think Eric wouldn't mind scolding you? He
won't say anything even if it's bad or not. To be honest, what happened between you and Eric? "Did
you really fall in love with each other?" Zack tentatively asked, because according to his observation



these days, he also felt that there was something special about Eric's feelings for Melissa. He didn't
believe that there was nothing special about him.

Melissa shook his head, "No, nothing. At least not for now."

"At present?" "What do you mean? What will happen between you two in the future?" Zack was curious
again and wanted to find the gossips.

Melissa fell into silence. Would something bad happen in the future? She wasn't sure, but according to
Mrs. Fannie's plan, she had to have some intimate relationship with Eric. Even if she didn't want to,
Mrs. Fannie would force them to accept it. Besides, she had made up her mind to have an affair with
Eric.

Seeing that she was silent, Zack thought she was shy. So he smiled and said, "To be honest, you
became famous this time all because of Eric. Even if you have an affair with him, the company will
definitely allow you to do that. The more you make a relationship with him, the more popular you are.
It's good for you to make a hype with him, which saved the company's effort to make some rumors
about you. Is it right?"

Still, Melissa lowered her head and remained silent. She didn't want to discuss this topic with him. So
she said, "I have to go backstage and fix my makeup, since Eric has to take a long time to do the
makeup." She then left the office, ignoring Zack.

There were three dressing rooms in the crew, one for the actress and one for the actor. The last one
was a makeshift body built for Eric to use alone. Since the artist had a good reputation, he couldn't
share it with any minor actors. Meanwhile, several independent rooms were arranged for the A-list
actresses in the actress dressing room. Among them, Junia had her own room. The room was
arranged for Melissa by the crew for the reason that she played the supporting role in the play and that



was because of Eric. Some of the rooms were for other A-line actresses and the rest were used by
other actors in the public makeup room.

Melissa walked into the large public makeup room and found that it was empty. Perhaps everyone was
out waiting for the shooting. Then she walked towards her private room. Since the lipstick was just to
make up, Melissa didn't call the make-up artist to come. She was alone in the room to do the make-up.
But at this time, she heard two people come in the room. Both of them were very anxious. They
bumped into the door as soon as they entered and closed it. Then they kissed each other behind the
door.

Melissa was so embarrassed. Although she couldn't see the view outside and the people outside, she
didn't know what to do. The sound of the kissing was so loud that she didn't know whether she should
make a sound or keep silent until they left. And who was so bold to kiss in the makeup artist's office?
Wasn't she afraid of being photographed by others? If she was an employee, didn't she want to work
with such promiscuous character?

They kissed for a while and didn't seem to stop. If they really made love each other outside, she would
be very embarrassed. If she said something, she would be thought impolite. She would also be
ashamed to go out to see them without saying anything. Was it abnormal to hear that they loved each
other?

In addition, they finally stopped and the woman made a cry like an impatient voice, "Ah……" You want
me…… You want me…… "I'm so uncomfortable. My whole body is on fire……"

Melissa was shocked. She couldn't believe her ears…… It was clearly Junia's voice. How could she
have an affair with someone else in the dressing room? She was a first-line star now. And wherever
she went, she would be stared at. Was she so bold to do that?



The man laughed in a low voice, which sounded enchanting and sarcastic. "Wow……" You are so
sissy! Didn't you just say it was only for fun? "Why can't you hold it so soon?"

This voice…… Hearing that, Melissa was shocked, because it was Colin. She loved him, she hated him
and she wanted to get rid of him at last!
