Chapter 382 The Wolf Grandmother with Green Eyes

It was Shen Xuewei's first time there, and she was quite curious about all the equipment the crew was using.

Upon arriving at the film set, even if Shen Xuewei really wanted to see Xu Yue, she still had to greet the director first.

Director Ye Weicheng, in his fifties, with a thin and serious face, was sitting in front of the monitor directing the scene.

Presumably, the actors performed well in several scenes, as their expressions eased slightly.

After filming several scenes, the crew was told to stop filming and take a break.

It was lunchtime, and soon staff members brought over the food.

Gu Xu took one copy and also gave one to Shen Xuewei.

The two of them took their boxed lunches and headed straight for the director's table.

"Weicheng, look who's here!"

Ye Weicheng looked up and saw Shen Xuewei, who had been brought over by Gu Xu, before lowering his head to eat again.

"Oh, it's Xiao Shen! What brings you here?"

Although he was older and had only met Shen Xuewei once, he had a good memory and still remembered what she looked like.

"Sit down, don't be shy."

"It's nothing, Director. I just heard that the crew started filming, and I happened to be on vacation recently, so I came to check it out."

As she spoke, Shen Xuewei sat down.

"Oh, really?"

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Ye Weicheng became more perfunctory in his speech this time and ignored Shen Xuewei.

As a seasoned director, he had little to say to a young person like Shen Xuewei.

If it weren't for choosing her novel as the subject of this adaptation, the two of them would never have been able to sit down and have a meal together.

Shen Xuewei didn't say anything more, ate her meal quietly, and then went to the side after she finished eating.

Xu Yue and several other actors sat down to eat.

Seeing Shen Xuewei coming over from the director, he quickly waved to her.

Shen Xuewei walked over quickly, and Xu Yue immediately took her hand.

Xu Yue suppressed her excitement and whispered, "Weiwei, what brings you here?"

Shen Xuewei touched the ancient costume she was wearing. "I just happened to be on vacation. I originally wanted to go home first, but thinking about that devil gave me a headache, so I came to see you first."

"How was the filming?"

Xu Yue casually poked at the rice in front of her with her chopsticks, and, using Shen Xuewei's body as a shield, secretly glanced at the director.

Afraid of being discovered by the director, she quickly retreated.

She said with lingering fear, "Well, if you say it went smoothly, it wasn't exactly smooth; but if you say it didn't go smoothly, I was on set, so it must have been smooth."

Seeing Shen Xuewei's puzzled expression, she lowered her voice and said:

"You'll know when filming starts or tomorrow, after we've filmed a few more scenes."

"Let me see what's going on..."

Shen Xuewei muttered to herself, noticing that she was choking a little while eating, and handed her a glass of water.

"Slow down."

"Hehehe..."

As the two were talking, someone nearby noticed Shen Xuewei's new face and then glanced at the work badge around her neck, and said:

"Are you a new member of the crew? What do you do, and how did you end up here?"

Xu Yue raised her face, her smile feigned.

"This is my friend. What she does on set is none of your business."

The man snorted coldly, got up, and walked away.

Xu Yue rolled her eyes at him. "Weiwei, ignore him."

This guy started filming a few days ago and immediately started showering her with attention. Even though she had clearly rejected him, the whole crew knew he was pursuing her and treated them as a couple.

If it weren't for the fact that everyone noticed she wasn't giving him a friendly look during this period, they might have thought they were in that kind of relationship after filming was over.

She hates men who can't read people's expressions.

When filming began in the afternoon, perhaps the filming wasn't done well, Ye Weicheng transformed into a Tyrannosaurus Rex and roared angrily.

Shen Xuewei finally understood whether Xu Yue's assessment of things going smoothly or not was correct.

This director would immediately start yelling at people if they didn't perform well during filming.

If the filming is still not done well, it's common for them to scold people until they cry.

Right now, there's someone who was scolded to tears, sitting there sobbing.

Annoyed, Ye Weicheng yelled, "Who died in your family? Are you crying for your mother or your father here? Watch, I'll tell you again how to act."

"If you don't perform well again, pack your things and get out of here right now!"

Shen Xuewei watched from the side and asked Gu Xu, who was standing nearby.

"Uncle Gu, does the director always swear like this?"

Gu Xu was already used to it. "He's always been like this. Don't think he has a good temper. Anyway, when he's in a bad mood, he's quick to anger."

The actor was taught by Ye Weicheng once, but he still couldn't act well, so he threw down his fan.

"Get out!"

"Old Ji, find me some other people, let's film the next one first..."

The next shoot didn't go smoothly either, and Xu Yue got scolded again.

"What kind of acting is this? Are your eyes not moving? Are you playing a wooden doll? You're a dancer now, I need a seductive and alluring gaze... just like that, what are you acting?"

"One more time!"

Xu Yue had been scolded by him no less than ten times in just a few days since the machine was turned on.

Fortunately, she has a natural talent for acting, and she was able to adjust quickly after being lectured by the director.

Xu Yue performed again, but Ye Weicheng was still not satisfied and shouted for her to do it one more time.

We filmed it seven or eight times before we finally got it right.

There will be no more scenes featuring Xu Yue for the rest of today.

She left the camera's view, looking completely dejected. She changed back into her own clothes and walked towards Shen Xuewei.

"So, do you understand what I meant before?"

Shen Xuewei nodded, "I understand."

Xu Yue sat next to her, but her eyes were constantly drawn to the people filming in front of her.

"Don't be fooled by how harsh the director's words are; he's also willing to teach. As long as you're not too stupid and can withstand the criticism, you can learn a lot."

She shrugged. "Weiwei, you know, the roles I played before didn't have many scenes, so there was limited learning. This time, I've gotten a role with more screen time, and I want to learn more."

Shen Xuewei supported her idea.

"Learning more is a good thing; you'll be able to use it in the future. Improving your acting skills will also help you compete for roles in the future."

She watched the actors who were acting very seriously in front of the camera and marveled at their strong sense of conviction.

With so many people around, she can still put on a show; she would burst out laughing if she went up there.

She had originally planned to invite Xu Yue to dinner that evening, but Xu Yue was reluctant to leave.

She and Shen Xuewei didn't leave the film crew until the day was over, and they went out to find a place to have a late-night snack.

In order to maintain a good state the next day, and also to go back and review the script more.

After finishing her late-night snack, she didn't get to say much to Shen Xuewei before rushing back to the hotel.

Shen Xuewei watched her departing figure and slowly smiled.

Although Xu Yue looks busy, she seems to have more motivation.

Over the next few days, Shen Xuewei continued to visit the film set and finally managed to take some time to treat Gu Xu to a meal to thank him.

However, no sooner had they finished eating than Gu Xu invited her back the next day.

Shen Xuewei's intuition told her that this meal was a trap.

Sure enough, as soon as he picked up a piece of meat, Gu Xu squeezed out a smile, and with his glasses reflecting a green light, he looked just like a wolf in sheep's clothing with green eyes.
