"The prince actor is quite handsome, but his expression is too stiff." Margery said.
"Ah, it's actually him," Roland said with a little surprise. "Dawn Morning Light, the first knight in the Western Region, is now working as a teacher in Border Town, so he's not an actor at all."
"Not an actor?" The businesswoman asked in surprise, "Can you also go on stage?"
"The manpower is limited," he smiled, "Look at the other two, the actors who carried the scene props before. If they were to play the prince, they would be really... They don't look like people who could make Cinderella fall in love at first sight. ."
"...you're right."
Irene, who had changed into her full clothes, stood by and watched May walk up to Ferrin Hilt, put her hand on his shoulder, and danced gracefully with him. Guided by his dancing skills, he swayed with each other's pace. This segment hadn't happened in the rehearsal, and Erin realized it was May's improvisation.
The elder sister seduced the prince in every possible way, but the prince was unmoved, and just kept talking to him politely. It was not until Cinderella appeared in front of the prince that he let all his eyes turn to this beautiful woman with bright eyes and teeth.
Irene knew that as long as she walked over, Filmin would follow the script and throw May to the side and stage a love story with him at first sight. However, anyone could see that her current appearance was less attractive than May. In other words, why would the prince abandon the more beautiful and moving her and choose an ordinary self
At this moment, she saw the look that Fei Lin gave him.
There is helplessness, comfort, encouragement, and... love.
Irene felt that the stage suddenly quieted down, the laughter, cries and discussions of the townspeople disappeared, as did the friends in the theater, leaving only May, Filmin and herself on the stage.
That's right, she's far from the Star of the West in her acting skills, so give up and admit defeat
No, there is a voice in Erin's heart whispering, no, she wants to continue acting, this is her rare opportunity, or... the last chance, if she gives up, she probably won't encounter such an opportunity again, can To be on the same stage with such an outstanding female lead.
She also wants to be like Mey, who can move the audience's atmosphere with every gesture, so that everyone's focus is on herself.
I'm sorry, May.
she said in her heart.
If the prince is a theatre actor, she will have a hard time even having the courage to compete. Now it is almost impossible for her to defeat the Star of the West with her acting skills.
But he is not. He's Dawn, my love, Erin thought, forgive me for being rude, I don't want to lose to you in front of him.
The stage disappeared, and in front of Irene was a field of wheat. The golden ears of wheat were ripe and drooping heavily, swaying gently with the evening wind, waiting for people to pick. In the distance, you can see the setting sun falling into the horizon, coating the slowly flowing Chishui River with a warm color. This is where they often meet. In the red-orange sunset, the prince turned back into a knight, who fell in love with each other a long time ago.
As long as she shows her most beautiful side in front of him, he can keep his eyes from looking away... Not acting, but her true self, Irene picked up the robe that was in the way, tied a knot, and walked towards Fei Lin.
Confidence returned to her heart, everything was so natural, walking to the knight's side, she smiled at May, who involuntarily let go of his hand on his shoulder.
"Can I dance with you?" she asked.
A familiar smile appeared in the corner of Fei Lin's eyes, "Of course you can, miss."
Although not as skilled as May, under her guidance, the knight danced more naturally than before. The tacit understanding between the two infected the audience at the scene. Everyone began to applaud and whistle, followed by cheers.
The noise brought Irene back to the stage, she stood on tiptoe, kissed the prince lightly on the cheek, then pushed him away, and ran quickly to the backstage. At the same time, the sound of the bell rolled over the square, and faint echoes came from the mountains in the distance, no more, no less, exactly twelve strokes.
Soon, the drama is coming to an end, and it is also the final climax of the whole drama.
The prince searched from house to house in the outer city, and finally came to Cinderella's house. At this time, the little girl had changed into a dirty gray robe, held a broom, and was pushed aside by her sister. And my sister is still beautiful and moving, and can also wear that crystal slipper.
"Your Highness, what are you hesitating about? I am the one you are looking for."
"No, she is not."
"You... you shut up!"
Although May's performance is no worse than before, and even a bit stronger in terms of oppression, Irene is no longer flinching. She walked out of the corner and came to the center of the stage step by step, looking directly at the other party, showing unyielding harmony Fighting look.
Everyone applauded for this wonderful scene.
At this moment, the witch suddenly appeared, she raised her hand and let Cinderella put on the party dress again.
"His Royal Highness, she is the one you are looking for."
Luo Xia tore off the grey robe from Irene's body, revealing the evening dress underneath. Almost at the same time, her curled hair slammed into the air. After smoothing it out, the Cinderella who stole the prince's heart once again made a fool of herself. The gesture appeared in front of the crowd.
The atmosphere in the audience instantly exploded.
Everyone boiled under the embrace of the prince and Cinderella, and a gun salute sounded outside the venue, pushing the atmosphere to the highest level. The long-lasting applause and cheers continued until the finale narration sounded, the actors bowed and left the stage, and everyone did not stop applauding.
"This is really wonderful," Margery clapped her hands and said with emotion, "I thought the little girl would be completely overwhelmed by May, but I didn't expect that she would be able to pull back in the end, and I don't know if it was an illusion, her interaction with the prince More natural than May, as if... she really should be with the prince."
"It's really surprising," Roland nodded. Behind Irene is a different person. She should be performing in her true colors, so she can maintain her self-confidence under May's aggressiveness. The ability to turn the prince back into his own husband in a short period of time and get rid of the shackles of the stage is also very impressive. Given time, she will surely become a rising star. In addition, the sound of bells and gun salutes made by Echo is also perfect. Since there was no rehearsal, Roland just told her to play freely before the play began. He was surprised by the effect.
…
Losing, May closed her eyes.
She went to great lengths to let Phil Hilter play the role of the prince, just to make a deep impression on him on the stage she was best at. Completely defeat Erin with her acting skills, and show him the gap between Erin and herself in this way.
To this end, she did not hesitate to stay in the town for nearly a week, rehearsing dramas with some actors who she would never even look at. After such a long delay, I'm afraid that when she returns to Changge Fortress now, the theater owner will not be able to praise her as much as before. And the most ridiculous thing is that she didn't completely defeat Erin even on stage. What she loses to is not the acting skills of the other party, but the love of the other party.
That being the case, it's time to let go.
May took a deep breath, changed her clothes and left the preparation room with a stern face.
Just as he walked down the stage along the wooden ladder, a man suddenly greeted him.
He is also tall and straight, handsome in appearance, and covered in silver armor. He should be a knight in Border Town. The difference from Dawn Morning Light is that Fei Lin's smile is always warm, while his raised eyebrows, narrow eyes and thin The lips appear arrogant and indifferent.
"Is something wrong?" May frowned.
"Hello, Miss May," Unexpectedly, the other party dispelled his cold and threatening temperament as soon as he opened his mouth, "I am the chief knight of His Royal Highness, Carter Lannis. Your performance is really wonderful, Can I buy you a drink?" (. If you like this work, you are welcome to come and vote, your support is my greatest motivation. Please come.)
