The critics, the jury and almost all the people that came to see the film were praising the movie. This movie was bound to be a great hit earning an income which would almost make many billions.
As soon as these people came out, they were surrounded by the media and they were asked and questioned about the movie, the script, and the acting. Most of them were happy with the movie but amongst these people, there were some who were displeased and surprised at the same time.
They were surprised by Li Xiaolu's amazing performance in the film but they were displeased to see Li Roulan acting. Most of these critics and jury, thoughts that her acting was a bit poor. They were comparing her acting to the previous films she had done, and they felt that something was amiss. Her acting felt so different from them. As if both the sister have switched their places in terms of acting.
As one of the old critics in the acting industry came out of the cinema, he was immediately surrounded by reporters. This man was a very famous old man and highly respected in the acting industry.
"Sir what do you think of the movie? What do you think about the performances done by the actors?" A reporter asked him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis old man who was highly popular among the jury and the critics was known as a 'man who had a mouth with no filter'. He was honest about the review he gave about a movie or an actor's acting or directing. If he didn't like something he would just speak about it without caring what other people thought or any backlash.
So when the reporters asked this man, he immediately answered in his old heavy voice, "Honestly, the movie was quite enjoyable. The director has done a good part of doing his job. The script was good describing the kinds of love people have. It mainly focuses on a person's obsession with someone reaching a point that he loses his mind, doing all kinds of crimes in the name of love and for the sake of love, justifying their actions for their own personal benefits without caring for the other person's feelings. This movie perfectly described that aspect of love."
"Sir, then what about the performances?"
"Well, the cast of the movie was good. I can see their hard work and the amount of their heart and soul that the actors have put forth in the film. I have seen Sun Yong's acting grow up over all these years. That child is good but what surprises me, was the actress of the movie. She was so good. Her acting was on point in every scene that she was in and it made it so realistic. Even though it was her first movie, she was good.
But, but this other actress, her sister, I guess Li Roulan, I am very disappointed by her acting. I didn't like it a bit. I have, I have seen her movies before but this time she was just so dull on the screen. Compared to her, her sister Li Xiaolu is much better."
The old man said his words and he left. But when he was saying all these words, he didn't notice that there was a beautiful young woman standing behind him, listening to his words. It was Li Roulan and she had listened to every word that man had said.
She was present there with Chen Yufan, who finally appeared after a very long time, before the media. The last time he appeared was when his company was destroyed.
Now as the media and all the people began to question them, Li Roulan had to grit her teeth every time when she was asked about Li Xiaolu. She has listened to every word of the people around her, most of them criticizing her acting and praising Li Xiaolu. She was so angry. On what basis, where these people were comparing her with that woman. She is so better than that Li Xiaolu.
She just felt like leaving the place and going home and that just what she did. But on the other hand, Li Xiaolu was very happy. Many people came and congratulated her, they praised her acting. Not only that she also got direct offers from many big directors.
She felt like she was in heaven. This was what she was missing in her past life. This was what she was lacking. But now with the release of this movie, she knew this was just the beginning.
Searching among the crowd for Zhang Zhehan, her eyes fell on a person. Li Xiaolu was surprised. Walking up to him she smiled, "Long Xun you are here."
Long Xun smiled at her. "You look very beautiful."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Thank you." Li Xiaolu smiled with a small blush appearing on her cheeks, "And thank you so much for the earings."
"Did you like them?" He asked.
Li Xiaolu nodded, "I like them very much. But these are so expensive. You didn't have to give me this gift."
"Ah... It's nothing. It suits you. When I first saw them, your face appeared in my mind and I just knew that these earrings were made for you." Long Xun said.
Blinking her eyes, Li Xiaolu looked at him. For some reason, she felt that something was wrong with his words but she couldn't put a finger on it. Thinking that maybe she was thinking too much into it she changed the topic, "Did you like my movie?"
Long Xun nodded. He was about to say something when he paused. From the corner of his eye, he could see Zhang Zhehan walking up to them. "Umm... Xiaolu, I need to go. I see you later." He said quickly making a small excuse and left.
He was not prepared to face Zhang Zhehan now. This was not the time or the place to meet him. They will definitely meet but not like this.
