Chapter 18: Qiang Li, Meeting The Casts
LanLan and I just stayed in the house because we don't have much to do as mom and aunt Lixue is away on a vacation and while at it, we searched about the Entertainment World, specifically the Film Industry. We searched everything we must know before entering the Industry, LanLan said that it's important that we have knowledge about the world that we chose. She really is meticulous when it comes to things, that's one of the traits I deeply admire from her.
Earlier this morning Yi Jun contacted us because there will be a small party for the productions team and the casts of •Empress General• this night because the drama will officially start shooting next week. He also informed that we have a photoshoot tomorrow, the other characters already finished their pictorial for the promotion.
I glanced at the stunningly beautiful LanLan in her below the knee purple dress, making her jade like skin even flawless, the dress paired with two inch light pink sandals. Her waist long straight black hair perfectly placed in her back, in each side of her forehead placed a pair of red butterfly hairpins. She didn't have any jewelry and makeup on even though she have a lot of it, she still shone like a single flower within the darkness, so breathtakingly beautiful.
Her eyes moved from the huge human size mirror into my direction and gasped loudly, not the usual gentle manner she shown in front of others.
"YueYue you look great as ever!"
I looked at my attire and also admit that the dress I am wearing is beautiful. It is a yellow dress of the same style of the dress LanLan is wearing, which she buys for me, well she is always the one choosing my dress when we go shopping as I don't really care if what I am wearing as long as I am comfortable. She's my fashion guru, which people nowadays used? I didn't really sure I just read it somewhere in the internet. My footwear is a white flat shoes. I also just let my hair loose as I usually do.
Her gazed traveled from my hair to my sole then shook her head.
She grabbed something in the huge drawer and in then in a smaller one, which is just placed in front of the big mirror then she walked into my direction, revealing four sapphire colored flower hairpin and a two inch white sandals. She put the pin on my hair and the sandals on my feet and happily clap her hands.
"Now, we're perfect to go!"
We goes outside and close the door and gate carefully, there is no one in there anyway because we didn't have any maid, mom and aunt Lixue is the one cooking our dinner always. We only have someone clean the Mansion once or twice a week. Mr. Jung Qi also followed mom and aunt for their safety.
We arrived at the 3-star luxury hotel in forty minutes.

"Yi where are the two you chose to play the fifth and sixth female lead?"
A man in his early forties wearing a black sweater and flexible formal pants, hugging his tall and muscular body ask. His handsome face painted with an expression a playboy would always have, carefree and playful with his lips curves into a devilish grin as usual.
'Che! Just an old man pretending to be a young vigorous and hot youth! Not my type!'
Even though he looks unreliable, he is the director of the my first drama •Tears Of the Water Spirit• and the •Angel's Cry•, Qiang Li, which is my bestfriend and the person who stayed with me since I can remember. We created the 'Words Production' together and brought the production house as it is today.
I am also very thankful to him because he is the one who invested on my first drama with his personal wealth when no one wanted to invest in an amateur and unknown, not so author who want his work to be a drama. My novels that time was popular and was published in one of the biggest publishing house here in the Capital but it lacked the popularity of the more known authors that time, but he still invest and trust me in it, well he is a pretty wealthy man anyway.
He already asked me for the ninth time because I mentioned that the two really fits the beauty of my two beloved children (characters), which is a global level beauty. So his playboy nature kicked in.
'What an ugly old man want to tricked beautiful young ladies! Want to do it in my watch? No way!'
The other actors also are curious with the two person who I chose.
"What are you excited about?! They're not gonna be interested on you stinky old man!"
"Hey! I'm super handsome and hot man okay?!"
He feign to be hurt and offended but his expression and words says otherwise.
"Eww!" I make face to make my word more effective.
And I'm right it's very effective as he start to reason this and that he's handsomeness is unsurpassed.
"Am I right?!" He looked at the actors who's already laughing with our banter and asked with a threatening expression.
'Shameless!'
"Yes! Yes! Director Qiang is super handsome and sexy and rich and perfect."
The actors agreed without a second and bootlick the old man without any shame.
'Who would want to offend a big shot director?! So we must agree. If he says right then it is right. Hehe!'
The actors shameless thoughts.
He want to ask me again when I noticed two familiar figure not so far in our place. The two was lead by a male attendant who is clearly flustered in a face of two rare beauty, more so two of them.
The other is wearing a yellow dress while the other in purple.
'Sigh! Even I, a gay man was stunned when facing the two, how so when the men see them.'
Everything seems in a pause, even the time as the boisterous laughs of the actors stopped completely. Soft heavenly music flowed in perfect harmony like a song welcoming the two Goddess from heaven in this filthy and sinful mortal world.
'Well, it's just my imagination. Who would play this kind of music in this kind of party and I clearly remember that the song was a rock n roll one before I see the two. I'm just copying some author's words when describing the Main Character's always epic entrance okay?!'
Forget about my nonsense thoughts.
The first time I laid my eyes into the two in MS Entertainment, I am certain already that they are the Feng Lien and Feng Lian that I am looking for.
In the novel, I described Feng Lien and Feng Lian into a peerless beauty, even more beautiful than the female main character. I don't know why I described them as such. I am also asking my young self about it.
Perfectly white and unblemish skin, perfect eyes, lips, nose chin, cheeks and forehead.
Everything about them is perfect that they seemed unreal.
So when we decided to make it a drama, I was so problematic and busy finding the actress who'll play the two. There are a lot of very good looking in the Industry but they lacked the temperament that Feng Lien and Feng Lian have.
There are also may who have beautiful features but some are not the classical features that I am looking for.
Cold and pure.
The other Gentle yet strong.
This other actress is cold but not pure. The other pure but not cold.
There is an actress who's image is gentle but her gentle aura shows a delicate charm.
'Younger self why are you letting me suffer because of your idiotic idea in describing your character!'
All of the characters are already confirmed and ready but the two is nowhere to be seen.
So I decided to go to the MS Entertainment to ask a favor to the CEO of the company to let me look into his trainees in Acting and Idol Department. But I didn't expect to met Ming Yue and Bai Xiu Lan, my hero.
Ming Yue fits Feng Lien the most the first time I saw her. Her natural cold temperament with a kiss of pureness is really what I imagined Feng Lien to have.
(A/N: I don't know what I'm saying here now. hehe.)
While Feng Lian and Bai Xiu Lan's image merge perfectly with each other.
That gentle and graceful temperament with a strength hidden inside is really my child Feng Lian.
"Good evening writer Jun. Good evening everyone."
Bai Xiu Lan and the usually silent Ming Yue greeted everyone with a gentle and small smile. Their tone neutral, not the usual fawning tone actors and actresses when greeting me. Posture straight and full of elegant and fluid movements.
'They must be a heiress some huge corporation or some respected family of scholars or some high rank military family, well whatever the only thing I am happy about is I really hit a jackpot!'
"Come! Come!"
I invited full of enthusiasm and energy.
"Nice to meet you young ladies! I am Qiang Li, the director of the drama."
Qiang Li, the old man pretentiously introduced himself.
"Nice to meet you too Director Qiang."
Bai Xiu Lan responded with her still gentle smile.
"Nice to meet you." Ming Yue also responded.
I watched as Bai Xiu Lan and Ming Yue perfectly conversing with the other actors.
As what I've observe so far. Bai Xiu Lan has a very high EQ and also intelligent, she has a very high interpersonal skills unlike Ming Yue.
Ming Yue on the other hand is quite awkward in socializing with others at first, but when you talk to her, she also answer you with patience. Awkward at first but then in the later part, she's now talking with them like they are friends.
However I noticed that the way they talk is so formal, with a certain kind of control and elegance?
They must a daughters of a family of great background.
