Facing Song Ci's question, Du Xueyan actually lost the instinct to speak. Her long, curled eyelashes trembled slightly, and she didn't dare to look directly into Song Ci's penetrating gaze.
"He told you everything..." Du Xueyan was incredulous. "How could that be?"
Seeing Du Xueyan's surprised reaction, Song Ci couldn't help but feel pleased. "Why not?"
Song Ci took a slight step forward, her head close to Du Xueyan's face, and said to her in a voice that only they could hear: "Ms. Du, do you know under what circumstances people will openly mention their ex to their current partner?"
Du Xueyan bit her red lips and said nothing. She heard Song Ci say arrogantly: "Only when he has completely let go of his ex."
Du Xueyan clenched her fists suddenly.
At this moment, Du Junfei's deep voice rang out from behind them: "Du Xueyan, Song Ci, what are you dawdling about? Go change your clothes!" Du Junfei saw that the two of them were muttering endlessly, and he got angry and shouted directly: "Do you want me to open a teahouse for you and pour you a cup of tea so you can talk in detail?"
Song Ci raised her eyes and blinked at Du Junfei, saying playfully, "Director Du, you have to be gentler with girls. You're so fierce, no wonder you can't find a wife."
Du Junfei's eyelids twitched and he wanted to hit someone.
Before Du Junfei could truly go berserk, Song Ci quickly turned and headed into the dressing room. Du Xueyan also feigned composure, turning back to apologize to Du Junfei before heading into her own dressing room.
After changing her clothes, Du Xueyan sat on a chair and let the makeup artist of the crew put on makeup for her.
Tong Xin was sorting Du Xueyan's things. He didn't know that Han Zhan was standing between Du Xueyan and Song Ci, so he told Du Xueyan what he had observed: "Sister Xue, I found out that Song Ci is not an entertainer, but the most famous socialite in Wangdong City. Oh, and her husband is the boss of Zeus International."
"Song Ci has never acted in a movie before. This is her first time. She can play the leading role in Director Du's movie right after her debut. I guess it's most likely that her husband threw money into the crew."
Du Xueyan was absent-minded and didn't speak.
Seeing that Du Xueyan didn't express her opinion, Tong Xin boldly continued to complain: "Song Ci is so lucky. She married a rich husband and everything she does is twice as effective with half the effort. Our Sister Xue has had a hard time along the way, but she has worked hard step by step. Song Ci can't compare to Sister Xue."
Du Xueyan's face suddenly darkened and she scolded Tong Xin: "Tong Xin, be careful with your words."
Tong Xin was stunned. Seeing Du Xueyan's displeasure, he quickly shut up. He looked at the makeup artist and was relieved to see that the foreigner looked like she didn't understand anything.
After finishing her makeup, Du Xueyan asked her assistant and makeup artist to leave.
Du Xueyan sat alone on the chair, staring quietly at the flawless woman in the mirror. In Du Xueyan's mind, the words that Song Ci had just said echoed repeatedly -
Han Zhan has never been a stumbling block in my pursuit of my dreams. He's the kind of person who, if you want to fly, will willingly carry you, helping you soar higher.
Du Xueyan was so smart, how could she not hear the hidden meaning in Song Ci's words? Song Ci was telling Du Xueyan that the person you discarded as a stumbling block and a burden is actually the one who will risk his life to help you succeed.
She mistakenly treated her backer as a burden and kicked him away.
As for Song Ci, you can say that she is arrogant and domineering, and she relies on her youth and beauty to commit crimes, but just because she got Han Zhan before anyone else, she won!
Du Xueyan suppressed all her emotions, showed the attitude of an actor, and devoted herself to the filming of the movie. This was her first film after switching from the music industry to the entertainment industry, and she absolutely couldn't mess it up!
Du Xueyan had thought that Song Ci would make things difficult for her or deliberately go against her in the future. After all, she was now the boss of Zeus International, and her status and position were there. If she really wanted to do something to Du Xueyan, she could do it.
But unexpectedly, after that, Song Ci really treated Du Xueyan as an ordinary colleague and never provoked or ridiculed her again.
Du Xueyan was alert for a while, but when she saw that Song Ci was either practicing the piano or thinking about his role every day, she felt relieved.
This was Song Ci's first time filming a movie, and she was a complete rookie with absolutely no acting experience. She didn't know how to move or act. And because Rain grew up in England, he speaks pure, fluent London English in the movie, while Song Ci speaks American English.
After noticing Song Ci's language limitations, Du Junfei found her a teacher who spoke a London accent. Song Ci spent her entire working day with the crew, and when she wasn't filming, she practiced her lines with the teacher, even becoming hoarse.
Fortunately, Long Yu was well prepared and made puffed tamarind tea for Song Ci every day. Song Ci would drink it whenever he was thirsty, and his throat was well protected.
Like her, Du Xueyan also encountered the same problem.
Not only was Song Ci a rookie, but Du Xueyan, who was trying her hand at filming for the first time, wasn't much better either, and she couldn't speak English. However, Du Xueyan had experience filming music videos and variety shows, and while her acting wasn't great, she had a knack for finding the camera, which was still better than Song Ci's.
That day, when Du Xueyan wasn't filming, she spent over an hour practicing her lines with her teacher, the script in hand. Afterward, she opened a bottle of mineral water and was about to drink it when a fair hand suddenly reached out.
The hand held a gray thermos cup.
Du Xueyan turned her head to look at Song Ci beside her, her expression slightly puzzled.
