Chapter 291 Enemies Meet on a Narrow Road



This well-intentioned effort only made Xi Quan very frustrated and angry. What did he mean by "rethinking their relationship"?

Think about it?!

Xi Quan thought to himself, Ye Qing will be his person for all eternity!

The more Xi Quan thought about it, the angrier he became. He felt that no matter how angry Ye Qing was, she shouldn't keep thinking about divorce!

Haha, everyone has a temper!

The two awkward people could have easily resolved the situation with a simple explanation, but instead, they started a cold war. Although neither of them used the word "cold war," they both knew each other's contact information but neither took the initiative to contact the other.

At first, no one thought there was anything wrong with it, after all, there had been a gap of several years between them, and there was also a time difference, but they got through those years.

It's just a business trip, and the film studio where the crew is stationed isn't far from Nancheng. Not only does Ye Qing think it's nothing, but Xi Quan also thinks it's nothing.

But two days later, they both started missing each other.

However, neither of them took the initiative to contact the other. Ye Qing felt that he couldn't back down now, because if he did, he might have to compromise even more in the future.

It's not that Ye Qing is unwilling to compromise at all; in Ye Qing's view, it depends on the situation.

If it were a trivial matter like who cooks, washes dishes, and picks up the kids every day, Ye Qing would never get angry with Xi Quan. But now that it concerns her career, Ye Qing feels she has to persevere.

Xi Quan was genuinely busy, and he was also afraid to contact Ye Qing. If Ye Qing suggested they break up, things would really get out of control.

And so the two of them remained frozen in place.

Ye Qing isn't usually the type to bring her emotions into her work, but lately she's been quite irritable. The main issue is the tight schedule of the production. Originally, all the costumes were supposed to be ready before filming started, but because of their high quality requirements, they changed costume designers several times before filming began. Li Yeming was only finalized right before filming started. Although they're currently focusing on filming the scenes of the female lead living in her extended family, they're almost finished. This has put a lot of pressure on Ye Qing. If her designs are delayed, plus the need to make the costumes, the production might have to cut short the schedule. But location fees and other expenses still add up every day.

The producer was anxious, the director was anxious, and Ye Qing was even more anxious.

However, even in such a rushed situation, there are still people who are difficult to please.

Although Li Yeming designs traditional clothing, he is also a skilled tailor. So, in order to meet the deadline, Li Yeming, Ye Qing, and Liu Yuliang all started using sewing machines.

Just as they were busy, the on-site producer rushed over: "President Ye, do you still have clothes for the extras in the dance hall?"

Ye Qing was stunned for a moment: "Didn't you say that we were filming a big scene today, and that we needed a lot of extras? We gave you all the clothes for the dancers in the ballroom before, but where are they now? These are all for the female lead to wear."

"What do we do now?" The young woman in the costume department almost cried when she heard Ye Qing's words.

Ye Qing and Li Yeming exchanged a glance and asked, "What's going on?"

"An extra with a few lines in a dance hall got into an argument with a background actor. The background actor accidentally stepped on the hem of her skirt, and the actress with lines tore her clothes. She was throwing a tantrum. Actually, it didn't matter whether she was throwing a tantrum or not. The key was that the director was angry and couldn't continue filming. Although she was just an extra, she had lines, and it was a key scene for the male lead. It was a scene that would definitely not be cut in post-production."

The young woman in charge of the clothing spoke of this actress, known as "Nth Actress," with a hint of disdain, which suggests that the actress was not famous and that people were annoyed by her fussiness.

The reason they're still helping this annoying actress find replacement costumes in this situation is simply because this scene is so important.

The actress dared to be so arrogant only because this scene was a major highlight.

Although she had sorted out the intricacies of the situation, Ye Qing didn't care. After all, these were matters for the production team, and as a costume designer, she really didn't need to offend anyone.

Since she was indeed in charge of the costumes, Ye Qing took her sewing kit to the filming location to see if she could salvage the scene and help the director finish filming it smoothly.

There's a saying, "Enemies meet on a narrow road."

Ye Qing never expected to run into Ye Shuang here.

The last time Ye Shuang deliberately implied something about Ye Qing in front of reporters, Ye's grandfather later went on a program to clarify some things, which did have a certain impact on Ye Shuang's career. However, it was ultimately a moral issue. Although everyone was indignant, there is a saying that even an upright official finds it hard to settle family disputes.

Over time, people forgot about it.

In addition, Ye Shuang is not a very famous person, so the hype will fade away once it's over.

And now, Ye Shuang is even back to filming.

Upon seeing Ye Shuang, Ye Qing composed herself and walked over to the director, speaking to him in a businesslike manner.

Hearing Ye Qing's voice, Ye Shuang was quite surprised. She had heard that the costumes in this production crew were very elaborate, but since her role was not important and most of the clothes in the drama were worn by people in brothels, they were relatively acceptable, so she didn't bother to find out who was in charge of the costumes.

I never expected it to be Ye Qing.

Ye Qing walked up to Ye Shuang and glanced at the clothes. She knew what was going on. The clothes could be mended. If she communicated with the director and the camera angle was chosen well, the flaws in the clothes wouldn't be noticed.

However, when Ye Shuang saw Ye Qing, the negative emotions that had been building up in her heart were reignited. She thought that although Ye Qing was not famous, she would never have played a role like this where her name was almost nowhere to be found in the credits. Now, she had to keep a low profile for such a role, all thanks to Ye Qing.

How could Ye Shuang let such an opportunity slip by!

She glanced at Ye Qing, who had already walked up to her, and dodged slightly, asking in a pretentious manner, "Who are you? Can you even do this? This scene is very important in the whole play, so don't let the costume give you away."

Ye Shuang said this because she was betting that the director was a very artistic person who didn't care much about commercial things. So, even though Ye Qing was now a famous designer, she felt that the director wouldn't care about such things.

Indeed, the director was unaware that Ye Qing was now quite famous in the design world, but that did not prevent the director from being satisfied with and appreciating Ye Qing's designs.

So when he heard that Ye Shuang was causing trouble again, he was extremely impatient. But before he could even speak, Ye Qing spoke up.

You have to understand that Ye Qing is never one to take things lying down, especially since Ye Shuang is practically an enemy. If Ye Qing didn't stand up for himself in front of so many people in the crew, where would he put his face?

So, in full view of the crew, Ye Qing ripped Ye Shuang's dress at the tearing point.
