Chapter 157: Even the Little Kitty Watches Foreign Films
Page 1 of 3
The scenes featuring Jiang Sui and Qin Ze as teenagers went remarkably smoothly—so smoothly that the director would often become absorbed in the performance and forget to call cut.
The director was not the only one captivated. Many of the crew members were completely drawn into the scene as well.
The two of them did not look as though they were acting at all!
During her youth, Chen Wanwan was highly skilled in martial arts, and it was precisely this skill that set her apart from ordinary young women of noble families, catching the eye of the young emperor.
Jiang Sui and Qin Ze were both in the prime of their youth, and together they possessed an almost otherworldly air—the charm of childhood sweethearts destined to fall in love.
Still, since this was merely a memory of the imperial consort, there was only one scene. And because filming went so smoothly, they finished it in no time.
The crew immediately gathered around them, showering them with praise. The young women in particular were terribly excited, taking picture after picture.
Gu Cheng was also somewhat astonished. “Her acting is actually this good…”
Although they had been filming separately, he could not help being drawn toward their side whenever there was a break.
He had originally assumed Jiang Sui was nothing more than a pretty face and that acting opposite her might end up dragging him down. Yet after watching her scenes with Qin Ze, he found himself eagerly looking forward to acting with her, almost unable to wait.
Though Xu Manman was a little envious, she had to admit, “That’s true. I haven’t seen Sister Jiang Sui act in a long time. I never expected her to have improved so much.”
Miaomiao had transformed completely into a devoted fan, staying by Jiang Sui’s side and showering her with endless praise.
“Sister Suisui, you’re amazing! I was completely mesmerized just now!”
“Everyone around us looked like they’d gone crazy, clutching their hearts one after another. They were so excited!”
“I think Sister Suisui’s scene was even better than the American dramas I usually watch!”

“Oh? Little girl, you watch foreign dramas too?”
Qin Ze’s voice suddenly rang out.
The moment Miaomiao saw him, she immediately edged away and stared at him warily.
Qin Ze gave her a meaningful smile. “Why are you afraid of me? Even if I wanted to eat someone, I’d eat Suisui—not you.”
Jiang Sui, who was playing a match-three game during the break, frowned.
What was he talking about? Were the two of them that familiar with each other?
Miaomiao bristled. “You dare!”
If he dared to eat Sister Suisui, she would bite him to death!
Her reaction sent Qin Ze into helpless laughter.
Miaomiao glared at him as though she might pounce and take a bite at any moment.
Jiang Sui said, “You must get scratched by cats all the time, don’t you?”
Qin Ze replied, “How did you know?”
Jiang Sui said, “Heh…”
Qin Ze thought: Why did that laugh send such a chill down my spine?
When Jiang Sui stopped halfway through her remark and said nothing more, Qin Ze did not pursue it. Instead, he asked Miaomiao curiously, “You said you watch foreign movies too?”
Jiang Sui was curious as well. Could a cat really understand foreign movies?

Miaomiao nodded. “Of course! I can watch more than a dozen in one night!”
Qin Ze became interested. “Oh? Then let me quiz you. What’s the name of the male lead in The Shawshank Redemption?”
Miaomiao answered excitedly, “I know this one! His name is Handsome!”
Jiang Sui: “???”
Qin Ze: “???”
Miaomiao continued, “And all the main characters in foreign movies have the same names! The men are called Handsome, the women are called Pretty, and there’s always a major villain called Scarface. They’re especially easy to remember!”
Jiang Sui: “…”
Qin Ze: “…”
At that very moment, one of the staff members nearby happened to be scrolling through a short-video app.
A familiar narrator’s voice suddenly came from her phone.
“Pay attention. This man is called Handsome, and the woman in his arms is Pretty. Just as the two of them are reaching the crucial moment of their passionate encounter, the sound of the cops suddenly comes from the doorway…”
