Genuine reading: Jinjiang Literature City!

"Amazon Lily Country! There actually is such a country! It's so small, probably not even as big as our province." Li Li exclaimed as she searched on her tablet. "But are you sure you want to go there?"

"What's wrong?"

"Look," Li Li pushed the tablet towards Li Ansi, "the news just came out a few days ago. The queen of this country has gone missing."

"This has nothing to do with us," Li Angsi shrugged and said nonchalantly, "We're just borrowing the land to film a movie. I've already paid for it."

"Okay, I'm just worried about getting involved in some political incident. After all, your identity is somewhat sensitive..." Li Li spread her hands nonchalantly. "But since you're not worried, it's okay for us to go. It'll only be a few days. By the way, when do we leave?"

"Three days later."

“So fast?!”

Li Angsi closed his laptop and said with a smile, "It wasn't supposed to be this fast, but seeing how well Su Zhuo performed, I've got some great new ideas."

"Okay, it's up to you."

Li Li was accustomed to her cousin's quick thoughts. "I'll go prepare the itinerary for three days."

"Sorry to bother you, cousin."

"Don't try to be so rude. If the movie loses money, I won't be lenient just because you're my cousin." Li Li fiddled with her bright red nails, her smile a bit sinister. "So you understand?"

Li Angsi nodded repeatedly: "I understand, I understand!" He felt extremely helpless in his heart. His cousin had been hanging out with that crazy woman from the Wen family for too long.

……………………

In the lounge.

After Su Zhuo and Tang Xiaofeng finished rehearsing the second female lead's scenes, the latter uttered a sigh of relief, "Isn't the character of this second female lead exactly like Pu Yaolian herself? She can definitely win an award if she plays her true self."

Su Zhuo nodded in agreement. At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and the crew informed them that they could start the next shoot.

Su Zhuo stood up, and Tang Xiaofeng followed behind her, sharpening his fists: "You have to perform well later and kill them in seconds."

"good."

Su Zhuo nodded.

As soon as the door opened, the door opposite opened as well. Pu Yaolian, holding the script, walked out with a blush on her face, chatting and laughing with Wei Bing. "Brother Wei Bing, thanks to you for helping me with the rehearsal, I feel much more confident."

"You're welcome. You work hard and are very talented. It's only natural that you will make progress." Wei Bing praised with a smile. Pu Yaolian's face suddenly turned even redder, as if she was shy and embarrassed.

"Brother Weibin, you praise me too much. I don't have any talent. I can only work hard."

"No, you are really talented and excellent." Wei Bing emphasized it again. Pu Yaolian was so happy. The two of them stayed together for a long time. She seemed to have just seen Su Zhuo and others standing aside. Her smiling face suddenly became flustered.

"Ah, Su Zhuo, I'm sorry. I didn't have a good grasp of my role, so I took up some of Brother Wei Bin's time. You won't blame me, will you? I'm really, really sorry."

Su Zhuo: "Get out of the way."

"What...what?" Pu Yaolian was stunned for a moment, not reacting to Su Zhuo's words.

Tang Xiaofeng rolled his eyes. "You're blocking our way. If you two want to show off your commercial skills to each other, please don't block other people's way, okay? Will you compensate me if I delay the filming?"

Pu Yaolian and Wei Bing's expressions changed at the same time. Pu Yaolian looked aggrieved and helpless. "I'm really sorry. I didn't know. I really didn't mean it..."

She subconsciously hid beside Wei Bing, looking weak and afraid of Su Zhuo.

"Su Zhuo, are you done yet? If you have anything to say, come at me. Why are you so angry at Lianlian? Do you know how hard she's been working?"

Wei Bing gathered Pu Yaolian behind him, like an eagle protecting its chicks.

"How hard she works has nothing to do with my little Su Zhuo." Tang Xiaofeng just thought Wei Bing was ridiculous. "Get out of the way. A good dog doesn't block the road."

Wei Bin’s face turned pale.

Su Zhuo walked away without even glancing at him, ignoring him to the end.

At this moment, Wei Bing didn't know why, but the blood rushed to his head and the anger that had been simmering for a long time was ignited. He suddenly shouted and reached out to grab Su Zhuo, "Su Zhuo, stop right there. You must apologize to Lianlian for your domineering behavior."

Next second.

Wei Bing felt himself soaring into the air, and the scene in front of him was reversed. Before he could react, there was a loud bang. After the numbness, a sharp pain spread from his back and spine all the way to his brain.

“Hiss! Ah—”

He let out a wail of pain.

Su Zhuo lowered his eyes coldly, "It's said that a good dog doesn't block the road. You two are worse than dogs."

"You!!!" Wei Bing was furious, but the pain in his body left him no time to care about Su Zhuo.

Pu Yaolian reacted quickly and rushed to Wei Bing's side, her eyes red and she cried, "Brother Wei Bing, Brother Wei Bing, how are you? Su Zhuo, how could you do this?"

She raised her head and glared at Su Zhuo, who had a calm expression on his face. "Brother Wei Bin just said a few words to you, and you hit him? That's too much."

Tang Xiaofeng was still surprised that Su Zhuo was so powerful, but when he heard Pu Yaolian's slanderous words against Su Zhuo, he immediately came to his senses and sneered.

"Just a few words? You're so good at avoiding the main point. It was clearly Wei Bin who made the dirty move first, and you don't allow others to fight back?"

"Brother Wei Bin was just trying to stop her. As a senior, is it acceptable for him to not respond to her and act so arrogantly? Is this what should be done?"

Pu Yaolian deliberately raised her voice, and many people in the crew gathered around because of the noise. She was delighted. If word got out that Su Zhuo disrespected his seniors and hit people in the crew, not to mention that Wei Pen’s fans would tear her apart, it would even be a question whether the heroine could hold on.

Especially since the director of this crew is Wei Bin’s childhood friend.

Pu Yaolian's hands trembled with excitement at the thought that she might be able to use this opportunity to kick Su Zhuo out of the crew and make her a complete joke.

Wei Bin, who was in excruciating pain, noticed that the staff were gathering around him. His face turned from white to red, and he felt so embarrassed that his whole body was burning with embarrassment that he wished he could crawl into a hole in the ground.

The staff who had gathered had already started talking.

"Ah, what happened?"

"It is said that Su Zhuo beat up the actor Wei Bing."

"That's unlikely. The movie star is tall and strong, and Su Zhuo is a head shorter than him."

"Yes! And Su Zhuo is a very nice person. He would never use his fame to embarrass others. There must be a misunderstanding."

"Didn't Su Zhuo have a great time filming today? The director and the others praised her talent and even said she performed better than the best actor. Could this be a deliberate frame-up?"

Upon hearing this, Wei Bing almost fainted from anger.

This group of people must have received benefits from Su Zhuo, otherwise why would they speak for her.

Pu Yaolian widened her eyes, unable to believe her ears. What was going on? Why were all the people in the crew speaking for Su Zhuo?

Wei Bing is the director’s childhood friend. Do these idiots know what they are talking about? Aren’t they afraid that Director Li will get angry and kick them all out of the crew?

Just then, someone shouted "Director" and the gathered people parted ways. Li Angsi walked over slowly, and Pu Yaolian was ecstatic.

Even Wei Bin's eyes were filled with hope.

The moment Pu Yaolian saw Li Angsi, she first lifted her hair without any expression, and then, before Tang Xiaofeng could tell her what had just happened, she exaggerated it, omitting her and Wei Bing's offensive behavior, and only mentioned the fact that Su Zhuo was arrogant and had hit someone.

"Bullshit! You were the ones deliberately blocking the way and annoying people. Wei Bing tried to pull my little Su Zhuo, but my little Su Zhuo was just acting in self-defense."

Tang Xiaofeng's face turned red with anger. How could Wei Bing and Pu Yaolian be so heartless and confuse right and wrong as if everyone else was blind?

When Pu Yaolian heard her words, she just sobbed and stared at Li Angsi out of the corner of her eye, hoping that he could stand up for Wei Bing. However, a long time passed and Li Angsi's expression did not change at all.

There was no anger, and even a hint of a smile.

Pu Yaolian and Wei Bing both felt a little uneasy.

Especially Wei Peng, he knew Li Angsi's personality very well. He was really devoted to his friends and would never say anything for so long, unless...

"Ang Si." Wei Bing suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and shouted weakly despite the pain, "Don't make a fuss over my affairs. Let's forget about it."

He lowered his stance not to calm things down, but to make Su Zhuo bear the blame.

Li Angsi: "Such a terrible thing happened on the set and we must explain it clearly," he waved to the staff member who was responsible for calling people over.

"Tell me what happened?"

The staff member looked from Wei Peng to Su Zhuo, feeling conflicted. Wei Peng was a movie star with a strong background, while Su Zhuo was currently a popular figure with unlimited potential.

This group of people made things difficult for him.

Pu Yaolian rolled her eyes and spoke softly, "Director, this matter is actually just a misunderstanding. You have a good relationship with Brother Wei Bing, and you want to seek justice for him, but Brother Wei Bing never embarrasses his juniors. Why don't we just forget about it?"

The staff member understood the hidden meaning behind Pu Yaolian's words and immediately made a decision. He sided with Wei Bin, spoke for them, and gave false testimony.

Now, the situation became unfavorable to Su Zhuo.

The crew members who were watching the scene began to talk in low voices, with half supporting Wei Bin and half supporting Su Zhuo.

"No way, is Su Zhuo really like this in private? Wei Bing, the actor, is so pitiful. He even defended her after being beaten."

"I don't believe it! Miss Su Zhuo is definitely not that kind of person. She's a very nice person."

"But Xiao Zhang was there at the time, so there shouldn't be any problem with what he said, right?"

"Who can say for sure? Wei Peng and the director are..."

Hearing these words, Pu Yaolian curled the corners of her mouth. Although some people still blindly supported Su Zhuo, which made her very uncomfortable, as long as Li Angsi was on Wei Bin's side.

Su Zhuo will never be able to turn things around.

Wei Bing also looked at Su Zhuo viciously. He no longer wanted to conquer Su Zhuo with his acting skills. He just wanted to drive Su Zhuo away and make her a complete joke.

Tang Xiaofeng felt a little uneasy. She protected Su Zhuo like an angry little tiger. Su Zhuo stood behind her, looking at Li Angsi thoughtfully.

a long time.

Li Angsi laughed, "Xiao Zhang, you're on my crew and you're still cheating me. It seems I've been too good-tempered lately."

Xiao Zhang's face turned pale and he said in confusion: "Director, I don't understand what you are saying." He was clearly helping his director friend, so why did the director look so angry?

"It's okay if you don't understand. You should be able to understand this." Li Angsi took out his mobile phone, which showed a complete video. It turned out that he had watched the entire drama in the dark early in the morning.

"Do you have anything else to say now?"

Everyone in the crew: Wow, actor Wei Peng and Pu Yaolian are really turning the tables! It's a good thing they didn't believe it. I really admire my clever little brain.

Tang Xiaofeng: Damn it! Director Li is actually a white-faced villain.

Only Su Zhuo was the calmest. She had long felt that Li Angsi had been hiding in the dark and watching her, but she just didn't quite understand what this man's hobbies were.

Being stared at with contempt by everyone in the crew, Wei Bing and Pu Yaolian wanted to crawl into a hole in the ground. They were slapped in the face for lying in public.

Especially Pu Yaolian, she even hated Wei Bing. He said that he and Li Angsi were childhood friends, but in the end, Wei Bing didn't stand on his side at all and was wholeheartedly helping Su Zhuo.

"Angsi, there is a reason for this." Wei Bing tried hard to save face, with some resentment towards Su Zhuo and Li Angsi in his heart. He actually took a video and showed it out.

For Su Zhuo, did Li Angsi really not care about their brotherhood at all? Even if he didn't care about their brotherhood, what about the kindness he had shown him? Had he forgotten that too?

Li Angsi was too lazy to listen to his excuses, "Apologize to Su Zhuo and don't delay the filming progress."

"Once!"

Wei Bing's eyes widened. He obviously didn't expect Li Angsi to not give him any face. He couldn't help but mention the kindness they showed him when they were little. "Have you forgotten what we did when we were little..."

"If you want to pat me, pat me. If not, get lost. Stop talking nonsense."

Wei Bing was completely stunned when Jing Lei's words fell into his ears. He could not accept this result and fainted from anger.

Pu Yaolian didn't notice that something was wrong with him, so Wei Bing hit his head on the ground, saw stars, and almost woke up but fainted again.

"Brother Wei Bin," she exclaimed, and she and Wei Bin's agent quickly hugged Wei Bin on both sides, and then screamed for an ambulance.

—————————

This farce ultimately delayed the filming progress.

Not only did Li Angsi deal with Xiao Zhang who told lies, he also scolded everyone he caught on the set, causing all the crew members to resent Wei Bing and Pu Yaolian.

Two harmful troublemakers!

Fortunately, after some of the supporting roles had finished their scenes, it was the heroine's turn. A smile appeared on Li Angsi's face again, and everyone in the crew breathed a sigh of relief.

It's so touching, all thanks to Su Zhuo.

No, it's Su Shen!!

Su Zhuo didn't expect that Li Angsi was so angry that he made major changes to the script on the spot. He cut several scenes in which the male lead was supposed to appear, and gave all the highlights to her.

Another smooth shoot, and it was getting dark outside.

Li Angsi's mood finally recovered. "You performed very well. I have revised a lot of the subsequent plot. Take the script back and memorize it well. The workload will be doubled tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. We will be shooting on location the day after tomorrow. You should prepare well. By the way, do you have a passport?"

"have."

Su Zhuo nodded, and Li Angsi was relieved. "That's all for today."

Su Zhuo took Tang Xiaofeng away. Li Angsi's smile turned cold again. He turned around and asked the assistant director, "Where's that bastard Wei Bin? If he's not dead, let him come to work overtime on the set."

The assistant director was used to seeing his two faces. "I called him a few times and he said he still hadn't woken up. I guess he was hit pretty hard."

He arrived at the scene just in time to hear Wei Bin 'apologizing' to Su Zhuo by banging his head on the ground.

Li Ansi sneered, "I think he's thinking of something strange. If he doesn't come, let the screenwriters have another meeting to revise the script."

The assistant director nodded repeatedly, wondering what Wei Peng had done to make Director Li dislike him so much, considering they used to be close friends. He was one of the few people who knew about Wei Peng and Li Angsi's childhood friendship.

…………

Hospital.

Wei Bing woke up early. He stared at his cell phone waiting for a call. However, the sun was shining brightly at noon, the sky was setting in the afternoon, and now it was pitch black.

Li Angsi didn't even call to apologize.

“Bang!”

He smashed his phone against the snow-white wall, his face full of viciousness, and the white gauze wrapped around his head slipped slightly with his movement.

Wei Bin tore off the gauze and threw it away, shouting, "Wu Hao! Wu Hao!"

"Brother Wei, I'm here." Wu Hao, Wei Bing's agent, hurried in, followed by Pu Yaolian.

Seeing Pu Yaolian there, Wei Bing's angry mood eased a lot, "Lianlian, I'm sorry, did I scare you today?"

Pu Yaolian shook her head and said softly, "I've caused trouble for your brother Wei Bin. I will personally apologize to the director. What happened today was truly a misunderstanding."

"No need to apologize to him, he doesn't deserve it." Wei Bing's face darkened again when Li Ansi was mentioned. "He is no longer the same Li Ansi as before. He is just an idiot who was blinded by a woman."

"But we still have to shoot next, so we have to give each other a way out." Pu Yaolian said in a low voice, but Wei Bing said without thinking:

"Then don't shoot. He also said if he wants to shoot, then go away. Since he doesn't give me face, why should I chase him away with all my heart?"

"Brother Wei Bin, don't be like this," Pu Yaolian sat down beside him and put her face in his palm. Seeing this, Wu Hao retreated quietly and lit a cigarette at the door of the ward.

Soon, some strange noises were heard in the ward.

Just a few minutes.

The door to the ward opened, and it was Pu Yaolian. Her clothes were already arranged, and her expression was normal as she walked out. "Wu Hao, tell Director Li that we can go to the set and film as usual tomorrow."

"...Okay." Wu Hao glanced at Pu Yaolian with a dull look, then looked down at his unfinished cigarette, feeling a little confused. It was over too quickly.

Pu Yaolian ignored his inexplicable gaze and walked towards the elevator. She mentally communicated with the system, "Are you sure that person with great luck is on the crew? Is he a man or a woman?"

"OK, the gender is unknown. I'll let you know when you see me. Be prepared with your strategy."

"I will. Wei Bing is half-dead now, and Zheng Fanren hasn't shown any improvement. I will definitely seize this person's favorability."

The elevator door slowly closed, covering Pu Yaolian's confident and lustful eyes.

——————————

In the hotel.

Su Zhuo was memorizing the script, and Tang Xiaofeng was sitting opposite him with a copy to help him with the lines.

After finishing the rehearsal, Tang Xiaofeng couldn't wait to speak: "The plot has been changed a lot. The role of that bastard Wei Bing has been reduced by one third. I'm really looking forward to his expression when he finds out.

No, after what happened today, does he still have the nerve to come back and continue filming? "

Su Zhuo smiled and said, "Who knows?"

Unexpectedly, Wei Bin really came back the next day, and Pu Yaolian was just like him. The two of them came back and continued filming as if nothing had happened.

Sitting in the lounge, Su Zhuo let the makeup artist put on her makeup for today, and heard Tang Xiaofeng complaining in disbelief:

"They actually came back. These two have shamelessness comparable to a city wall."

Su Zhuo laughed, "I thought you knew it a long time ago."

“…I was careless.”

The lounge on the other side.

When Wei Bing saw the new script in which a lot of his scenes were taken away, he was filled with uncontrollable anger. Pu Yaolian repeatedly comforted him, "Brother Wei, don't be angry. Maybe the director is still angry. Once he calms down, the scenes will be edited and restored, right?"

Wei Bing couldn't stand this humiliation. Pu Yaolian had to spend a lot of time to calm him down. She couldn't help feeling annoyed. If she hadn't figured out the new target, she really wouldn't want to coax Wei Bing for a moment.

An hour later, the filming began.

Su Zhuo raised his eyebrows as he looked at Wei Bing who was obviously suppressing his anger. He was so angry yet he had to continue filming. Is the movie emperor so short of work?

Her eyes glanced at Pu Yaolian, who was walking outside the field as if looking for someone. What was she looking for?

Su Zhuo narrowed his eyes, and then when he heard Li Angsi say "Action", he immediately withdrew his thoughts and immersed himself in the role in a second, transforming from Su Zhuo to Lilitana.

The moment Wei Bin noticed her aura change, his legs began to tremble involuntarily, his mind went blank, and he forgot all the lines he had memorized.

"Cut! Weibin, what are you doing? Speak your lines." Li Angsi shouted unhappily from outside the court.

Wei Bin's face turned pale and blue, and he felt so embarrassed and humiliated that he wanted to crawl into a hole in the ground.

Li Angsi ignored him and shouted, "Start over!" The camera began to roll again. Su Zhuo's aura changed again. Wei Bin's heart was trembling. He tried hard to remember his lines but still couldn't remember a single word.

"Cut! Weibin, are you kidding me? Say your lines! Say your lines! Say your lines!!"

Wei Bin's face turned pale and his lips trembled as he asked to rest for a few minutes, saying that he was not in good condition. Li Angsi took a deep breath and told him to get out and memorize his lines.

Facing mixed looks from the crew, Wei Bin walked out of the green screen with a thorn in his side. He felt that everyone looked at him with contempt and said things to him that were sarcastic.

He tried to calm himself down, picked up the script, and the familiar lines came back to his mind.

After Su Zhuo had finished a few scenes, Li Angsi called him on stage again. However, he forgot the lines he had memorized by heart the moment he saw Su Zhuo.

In the end, he NGed this scene dozens of times.

Li Angsi even scolded him mercilessly countless times in public, and Wei Bing was almost going crazy.

The crew members who were forced to work overtime were very dissatisfied with Wei Peng and privately discussed: "What's wrong with Wei Peng? He is still the best actor? It's hilarious."

"The movie star can't even remember his lines during filming. Could it be that he used to dub the lines after 123456?"

"I heard that Wei Peng got a lot of good resources because of his close relationship with Director Li, but he actually doesn't have much real talent. Now that he and the director have fallen out, naturally no one will pamper him anymore."

"He has no real skills and is always so arrogant. He previously falsely accused Su Zhuo of beating him and hasn't apologized yet. He also publicly criticized Su Zhuo for this and that, even though he didn't even know him. This guy has such a terrible character!"

Wu Hao, who happened to hear the staff's discussion, had a complicated expression. He wanted to jump out and accuse those people of talking bad about others behind their backs as usual, but when he thought of Wei Bin's status and reputation in the crew, he simply didn't have the courage to speak out.

When he returned to the lounge, he heard the sound of clanging and banging inside before he even opened the door, accompanied by Wei Bin's low growl from time to time.

Wu Hao stopped helplessly. Is Wei Bin going to give up now?

Shouldn't he find a way out as soon as possible?

…………

Two days later.

An ultra-luxury bus appeared at the door of the "Star Wars" crew. It was also at this time that Wei Bing and Pu Yaolian received the news that they were going to go on location shooting.

Wei Bin became angry again. "They didn't even notify me, the male lead, until now. This crew doesn't even take me seriously."

Wu Hao said nothing.

Pu Yaolian didn't try to coax him. She had searched the entire crew these past two days, and even looked for opportunities to visit other crews, but she couldn't find the target the system mentioned.

She was extremely upset and had no mood to coax Wei Bin.

Wei Bing had been fuming for a long time when he realized the room was completely silent. He couldn't help but turn his head and stare at the absent-minded Pu Yaolian, his eyes reddened. "Lianlian, why aren't you talking?"

Pu Yaolian didn't pay any attention to his condition and said perfunctorily, "Anyway, I've already informed you, so don't worry about it... Ugh!!"

She stared at Wei Bin, who suddenly grabbed her neck, with wide eyes and a look of horror on her face.
