Master's Untamed Wife

"Cut!"

A loud shout pulled Hyson out of his act and made him turn his head towards the director of the movie.

"Didn't you read the script, Mr. Hyson? You're supposed to act despaired. What's with that stiff reaction?"

Like a well-mannered kid, Hyson bowed his head slightly, "I'm sorry, Director Jade!"

Seeing him acting so calm and collected, Director Amiah Jade felt like she had punched cotton. No matter what she said, this boy never lost his temper. In fact, he never even showed a single sign of impatience as well. His sunshine personality was always intact. How infuriating!

Amiah waved her hand saying, "Let's take a break for now."

Hyson went over to sit down in his chair while his assistant offered him water. Hyson wrapped the coat tightly around his body. The region they had come for the shoot had harsh conditions. It was really cold here even at this time.

But that wasn't his only problem at the moment. His biggest problem was that he could hardly find a signal in this remote area and that's why he hadn't been able to talk regularly to anyone in the past few days.

Soon the lead female actress made her way towards him and occupied the seat beside him. She pursed her lips when she noticed how he had bowed his head and almost buried himself in the script in his hand. She thought he was feeling down for getting so many NGs just now. Although his expression wasn't flawless earlier, it was passable.

Well, it would have been passable if the Director was someone else. But Director Amiah Jade had always been notorious for her requirements. She always wanted her actors to be flawless. Just passable was not worthy in her dictionary that seemed to have only one word, 'Perfection.'

The lead actress, He Rou wasn't that familiar with Hyson but she had a good impression of him as well. She had been paying close attention to this junior. In fact, currently, there wasn't a single person on the set who didn't like this junior who didn't act out of line and who always offered a smile to everyone. People like him who carried a genuine air of purity were quite rare in this entertainment circle.

"Don't feel down, Junior," said He Rou. She thought about it a lot before deciding to say a few comforting words to cheer him up. "Mistakes happen in life. Besides, we can always move forward with those mistakes. We have all been there once." She paused slightly before looking around and adding in a small voice, "Also, haven't you seen that we all also get the same treatment? Director Jade is just like that. You don't have to take her words to heart."

Hyson looked up at her, "Senior, who said I am upset?"

He was surprised that he gave off the impression of someone who would be upset because of criticism. Would he have survived in this industry for seven years if a little criticism could hurt his feelings?

Although he looked and acted like a cute baby, he wasn't exactly one. His state of mind was strong. The credit for that had to go to his best friend who made him get used to insults. Also, he was trained to be patient by Raelle Xiang. There couldn't be a second person more patient than Raelle herself. Since he learned from the best, he can actually claim to be the second-best.

"Oh, you look like something is bothering you," said He Rou carefully. Although she was surprised to see that he seemed fine, she still mentioned what she really felt.

"Something is bothering me," agreed Hyson. His eyes lowered and a crease appeared between his brows. "Or maybe something is bothering me. I don't know."

He Rou's brows jumped up in surprise, "That's the expression! I don't know what's bothering you but that's the look of despair that Director Jade is looking for."

"Huh?" Hyson was surprised a little to hear that.

"Everyone take back your positions!"

Hearing that shout from the Director, He Rou gave him an encouraging smile. "Hold on to this feeling and you'll definitely be able to get through this scene without a hitch. I'm rooting for you. Fighting!"

Hyson gave her a nod and took off his coat to walk over the set towards his position. This time he listened to He Rou's advice and continued to enhance the feeling of loss that he felt. All because he was not able to contact back home.

Because of this, the despair and pain that he wasn't able to portray to perfection earlier became so easy that it took Director Jade a minute to come around before calling out, 'Cut!'

Hyson was finally able to smoothly finish his scenes for the day and sat down in the dressing room. The make-up artist helped him take off his make-up while gushing once again, "You, little brother, have such smooth skin. I can't even see a single pore up close. I'm even afraid to touch you."

Hyson gave her a sunny smile, "Jie is flattering me now."

"Flattering you? I'm not! Although I see beautiful faces every day since I became a professional make-up artist, it's still rare to see someone like you who can stand out." She really felt like ruffling his hair when he smiled at her earlier. But it wasn't appropriate so she stopped herself from doing so.

The make-up artist truly believed that he had distinct features that set him apart in a crowd. It was no surprise for a phoenix to stand out in a crowd of chickens but it was indeed a great feat when the same phoenix could stand out in a group of dazzling phoenixes. Hyson was truly like that. He could find his own identity even between all these renowned actors.

Sora entered the temporary dressing room while rubbing her hands and sat down before the heater but her eyes didn't leave Hyson's figure, not even for a second. Her eyes were burning with fire, it was so intense that even the make-up artist could feel it.

"I really really like you, Yue Fai!" announced Sora without hesitating. "Earlier, you were awesome! I was a little scared that Mia's temper might make you feel bad. But you exceeded my expectations. The way you faced her temper with calmness has made me respect you even more. You truly are amazing!"

She meant every word that she said. After all, even she would lose her mind before her best friend Amiah's short temper. But Hyson didn't even frown at her words. No matter how extreme she went, Hyson should a professional look.

"But you don't have to take it all," she added. "If something does bother you, let me know. I'll do whatever I can."

"Is there a way I can call back home?" he questioned. "Since we came here two days ago, I haven't been able to call home."

Sora was taken aback by his question. She had heard other actors complaining about how the weather was so bad here, there was so much snow, there was no internet to keep up with the social media, how they couldn't update their fans about their condition but he had to be the first who actually looked so distressed because he couldn't call home.

Sora wanted to laugh at that but she knew that'd be rude so she pursed her lips to control her laughter. She already knew that Hyson was different from others on the set but this boy kept changing her views about him.

How could someone be so adorable?!

Shaking off these thoughts, she said, "There isn't much we can do about it. There is a landline in the hotel though, you can use it."

"I tried using it," replied Hyson. 'But I can't talk to mom without a video call.' He couldn't say the rest of the sentence to her. He shook his head, "There seems to be some weather issue because of which even the landline is not working properly."

"Oh..." Sora felt distressed for him now. She thought of something and said, "Right! We are gonna change locations in a few days. Although there might not necessarily be good network coverage there, it'll still be better than here. Just bear with it till then."

Hyson could only nod since he had no other option right now. He didn't like traveling to places where she couldn't reach his mother. Now, he knew that his mother was Mu Chenyan but he still wanted to see her, to feel reassured. There was no way around it.

He didn't even get to disturb Raelle. Thinking how she might be feeling great about how he had no time to annoy her, he felt even more upset!

Sora was left amused seeing how his expressions kept changing with his thoughts. It really made him look like a kid who was brooding over something. She smiled at him but didn't point it out.
