After coaxing the three curious babies to sleep, Meg heaved a sigh of relief. When he returned to the bedroom, he saw Irina lying on the bed, resting her chin on her hands, looking at him curiously.
"Why? You also want to know if Sun Wukong is a man or a woman?" Meg asked with a smile.
"I'm just curious. Why didn't you tell me these stories in the past? And Sun Wukong, the mermaid, Snow White … Where did you hear these stories from? " Irina looked at Meg with a smile, and said, "Actually, I've always been curious about what kind of life you've been living in the past three years. What kind of people and things did you encounter that made you like this?"
"Becoming a stay-at-home dad is an unprecedented challenge for me. It requires more courage than any battle that I've experienced in the past." Meg sat down by the window, and stroked Irina's soft, long hair with his fingers. He smiled, and said, "It may not require you to have powerful combat skills, but you need to have profound knowledge to deal with the questions that the children constantly ask. You need to have excellent culinary skills to satisfy the children's little cravings. You also need to master many tricks in life to deal with the various problems that the children bring."
Irina sat up, and looked at Meg's face with a gentle gaze. A smile bloomed on her face, and then she opened her arms and hugged Meg tightly.
"When we were in the tree hole, I was always worried that you couldn't take care of yourself and Amy, but you did better than I expected. You're a good father."
Meg hugged her with a smile, and said gently in her ear, "I just did what I should do. I hope that I can make your lives more comfortable."
"Then …" Irina smiled, and her voice became gentler. "Can you tell me Journey to the West again?"
"Hmm???" Meg's hand, which was groping down, suddenly froze.
…
Rodu, backstage of the Black Cat Opera House.
"You've been here for a few days. How do you feel?" Vicky asked Angela, who was sitting on a chair and staring curiously at the actors.
Angela looked back at her and smiled sweetly. "I think acting is quite fun, and it seems much simpler than I thought."
This woman's every frown and every smile carried a bit of charm. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that she was naturally seductive. Even Vicky was stunned for a second.
"Simple?" Vicky frowned. "Are you saying that performing is a simple matter?"
The relaxed backstage gradually quieted down. All the opera actors looked at Angela with pity in their eyes.
Angela nodded. "From what I've seen so far, I don't think it's too difficult."
Vicky crossed her arms and said with a straight face, "Alright, then show me how nervous you are."
Angela stood up, and asked with a serious expression, "There are many kinds of nervous performances. Which one do you want me to perform?"
"Need to pee. There are no toilets or bushes around. There are only men," Vicky said coldly.
Angela clamped her slender and round legs together, clenched her fists, and bent her body forward slightly. She bit her lower lip with her pearly white teeth, and looked around with her watery eyes. There was a hint of nervousness and shyness in her anxious expression.
"You don't say, it's quite accurate."
All the senior actors present nodded in approval of Angela's performance.
Vicky was stunned. She didn't expect Angela's series of actions and expressions to be so accurate. Also, the hint of shyness in her eyes was even more pitiful. It wasn't something that an ordinary actress could show.
"She was pressed against the wall by the man she likes, but she accidentally farted," Vicky continued coldly.
All the actors present:???
Angela was also stunned. But soon, she raised her eyebrows, took two steps back and leaned against the wall. She lifted her chin slightly and quickly entered the role of being pressed against the wall.
She folded her hands nervously in front of her, pursed her lips, and a hint of shyness and joy appeared in her charming eyes. She looked like a beautiful woman who had met the person of her dreams.
She was 70% pure and 30% seductive. She acted out the role vividly.
All the men present were stunned, as if they saw the shadow of their first love.
Then, her expression suddenly froze, and she became visibly nervous. Her gaze became erratic, and her feet moved back a little. She was completely pressed against the wall, and her left hand gently pulled the hem of her skirt. Her slightly raised head also slowly lowered a little. She looked to the left, as if she was about to escape.
Vicky's eyelids twitched. Although Angela's performance wasn't amazing, for a pure newbie who had never learned how to perform and had only stayed at the opera house for a few days, this performance was unbelievable.
To put it another way, she was born to be in this line of work!
The design of her actions was on point, and the micro-expressions on her face were just right. In the first half, her shy and expectant look was enough to tempt most men. In the second half, when she accidentally farted and wanted to run away, her embarrassed expression was just as adorable.
When Meg introduced Angela to her, she had already guessed that Angela would be the female lead of the new movie. She was a little unconvinced at first, thinking that her acting skills would crush Angela's.
But now, she was a little impressed by Meg's choice of actors.
Although Angela wasn't a professional actress, she was very talented and had a strong learning ability.
More importantly, she fit the role well. From her performance just now, Vicky had already found the shadow of the female lead in her novel.
In this world, there was probably no other actress more suitable than Angela to play the female lead.
Vicky looked at Angela with a gentler gaze. She nodded and said, "From tomorrow onwards, you will learn acting from me. Acting is an art. If you want to become an excellent actress, you still have a long way to go."
"That's it?" Angela was a little surprised. "In terms of nervousness, I can act in many different ways."
"Wake up at six tomorrow morning. Three hours before the performance in the morning is your time to learn. If your performance is satisfactory, I can give you a chance to go on stage," Vicky said calmly. "But don't expect too much. It's the kind that doesn't have any lines."
"Then it's just a side character?" Angela asked.
"Little girl, don't look down on side characters. We all started out as side characters," Old Mi said with a chuckle.
Angela shrugged and looked at Vicky. The corners of her mouth rose, and a smile appeared on her face. She said in a gentle voice, "My thirst for knowledge can't wait any longer. Captain, let's not wait until tomorrow morning. I'll go to your room to learn tonight. I believe that with your simple explanations and demonstrations, I'll definitely have the ability to go on stage tomorrow."
