Love Contract novel Chapter 367

Victor frowned, standing still and caught up in his own head. Finally, his eyes lit up and he pulled out his phone again. "Hello? Director Hong? Yes, it's me. I heard that you're directing a new play? Of course I have time. For you, it's not a problem. All right, I'll see you tomorrow."

He hung up the phone and a maniacal grin crept across his face. 'Humph! Little Ena, you dare hang up on me. When I arrive at the studio city, I'll see what you've been up to. No hiding from me now!'

The next day, the sun shone bright and warm. The studio city buzzed with life, with the film crew of "Legend of Empress Dugu" already having turned the cameras on to shoot under the morning sun.

Once her makeup was done, Ena looked more lively and lovely, dressed in the clothes of a young woman from the nomad tribe. She was going over the script, reading her lines out loud for herself, when Director Hong suddenly spoke up through a megaphone. "Everyone, put your work aside for a moment. I have something to tell you."

Ena lifted her long dress off the ground, got to her feet and walked up to the director.

"Today, our crew will be joined by a new art director. I will not tell you who it is but you'll figure it out soon enough. Prepare well, don't embarrass us or yourselves, " Director Hong announced, seeing a car approaching from not too far off. He cast a quick glance at it and said, "Our new art director is here!"

Everyone immediately turned their eyes to the car as soon as he finished speaking.

A black van pulled up and parked by the side of the road. The door opened, cutting the air with a 'whoosh'. Two slender legs stepped out, and then a torso, and then...

Ena was astonished. 'Victor? What is he doing here?'

She watched as he got out of the car leisurely, took his sunglasses off, glanced at her specifically, or perhaps it was unintentional, she could not quite tell, and walked up to Director Hong. He smiled and stretched an arm out to shake his hand. "Director Hong, it's been too long! II

"Hello Victor!" They shook hands and Director Hong patted Victor on the shoulder. "I'm so happy that you're able to join us."

"Director Hong, you've done so much for me. It's the least I could do."

They greeted each other politely and Ena, standing and watching from the side, wondered what was going on. Had Victor come to see her? 'Hee hee...' The thought of it made her giddy and she could not help giggling a little.

"This is Ena Su. Ena, I'm sure you've heard of Victor," Director Hong said, introducing the two of them. He had forgotten they were from the same company.

Victor stood in front of her and nodded, "Yes, we're actually both from AJ Group."

Ena bit her lips and said nothing, too shy to even look up. 'Oh God, what do I do? I want so badly to throw myself into his arms!'

When they began filming, Victor sat beside the director with his legs crossed and watched Ena at work.

"Scene three, 'An Encounter', take one. Action!"

In the scene, the empress, played by Ena, was not yet married and often snuck out of her home for fun on her own. On this occasion, she ran to a stream, to catch fish and play in the water. Unfortunately, she fell on her bottom and sat amidst the water flowing around her. At that moment, the emperor, pretending to be a civilian, saw what had happened and came over to help her. It was love at first sight for both of them, and the rest was history.

Victor raised his eyebrows as he looked on at Ena. Her liveliness, her irresistible cuteness and her innocence were all displayed perfectly. Her performance was outstanding. Since when was his little Ena so talented?
