Chapter 33: No Personal Talk During Working Hours
Xie Peizhou arrived at the Wenci filming location, but the afternoon shooting had not yet begun.
Worried that someone might get heatstroke, Xie Peizhou bought more than 300 cups of iced drinks and 100 chilled watermelons and sent them to the filming site, as well as a lot of big-brand sunscreen sprays, sun hats, and sun sunglasses.
When Xiao Liu saw the supplies behind Xie Peizhou, he was stunned and felt a sense of joy as if "relief food from the imperial court has arrived."
"Thank you, Mr. Xie!"
"Where's Wen Ci?"
"Oh, Director Wen is on the set with Qin Wang."
Xiao Liu contacted the logistics team to sort out the supplies Xie Peizhou had sent, and said enthusiastically, "I'll take you to see Director Wen!"
Hearing the name "Qin Wang", Xie Peizhou pursed his lips and said nothing.
It was a scorching summer day. Just by walking, Xie Peizhou's back began to sweat, and every inch of his skin was heating up.
But when he saw Wen Ci and Qin Wang hugging and kissing in public, he felt cold all over.
Especially the chest, which seemed to be cracking with the cold.
Xiao Liu was used to it. Pointing at Wen Ci and Qin Wang in the shade, he explained, "The female lead, Jenny, is still in the RV getting her makeup done. The afternoon shoot hasn't started yet. Qin Wang puts on makeup quickly. He said he doesn't have much experience with kissing, so Director Wen was the one to rehearse his scenes with him."
"The highlight of this afternoon's filming is the hero and heroine's first kiss scene, a bitter kiss."
Xiao Liu was stunned for a moment when he didn't hear Xie Peizhou's response or any reaction. He looked up at him and said, "Mr. Xie, is this your first time watching a film crew shoot?"
"Haha, don't worry. It looks like Director Wen and Qin Wang are hugging and kissing, but they're not actually kissing. But during the actual filming, the male and female leads are going to kiss."
Xie Peizhou came back to his senses and met Xiao Liu's innocent gaze.
He smiled bitterly. There was no kissing on the scene. Who knows how they supported each other when they couldn't see each other?
Just like last night.
Xie Peizhou's Adam's apple rolled and felt sour.
Xiao Liu shouted beside him, "Director Wen, President Xie bought a lot of iced drinks and watermelons to visit the set!"
Wen Ci finally noticed him, walked over, and greeted him politely, "Uncle, I'm sorry for the expense."
Her attitude is truly that of a well-behaved junior.
Xie Peizhou pursed his lips and looked at Qin Wang who came with Wen Ci. "Are you Qin Wang?"
Qin Wang was flattered. He had never expected that a little-known actor like him would be recognized by a big shot like Xie Peizhou. He quickly bowed and greeted, "Hello, Mr. Xie. I'm Qin Wang, an actor under Huanyu. I didn't expect you to know my name!"
Xie Peizhou glanced at Wen Ci.
Wen Ci's scalp tingled, and she quickly sent Qin Wang away. "My uncle bought a lot of iced drinks. Go eat some first, and then we can go back to the theater later."
"Okay, Director Wen."
Qin Wang smiled at Wen Ci, his peach blossom eyes filled with tenderness.
As Qin Wang walked away, Wen Ci seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
Xie Peizhou sneered, "Why, are you afraid that I will bully him?"
Wen Ci looked at him and joked, "There's no reason for my uncle to bully him, right?"
Xie Peizhou handed her the cold drink in his hand and asked, "What do you like about him?"
Wen Ci: "Uncle, we don't talk about personal matters during working hours."
Xie Peizhou glared at her and said nothing more.
Wen Ci originally thought that Xie Peizhou would leave after giving her the cold drink, but he didn't leave and stayed to watch her act with Qin Wang.
"This scene is very important. It's Shen Jiyue and Ning Xia's first kissing scene."
"You are Ningxia's brother's good friend. Ningxia fell in love with you at first sight and has always been passionately fond of you. But you thought she was your friend's sister, with a five-year age difference, and always treated her as a childish sister. But gradually, you found that Ningxia no longer pursued you, and didn't even invite you to her birthday. I heard from others that on your birthday, she went on a date with a male classmate who was pursuing her, and even avoided you for half a month."
"Today, you finally ran into Ningxia by chance, but she turned and left as soon as she saw you."
"You called her, but she ignored you."
"After shouting three times in a row, you angrily chased after her and asked, 'Why are you avoiding me?'"
Wen Ci began to rehearse with Qin Wang, saying, "Don't you hate me? You said that even if all the women in the world died, I wouldn't fall in love with me?"
…
Xie Peizhou stood silently by. This was the first time he saw Wen Ci at work. She was very professional and good at guiding.
She is so sparkling that one can't help but ignore her youthful age.
Just by listening to her analysis, he was naturally drawn into the plot, and the lines sounded very familiar.
I vaguely remember that he said something similar when he was half drunk and half awake.
——I’m not a pervert. Even if all the women in the world died, I would not have any evil thoughts about Wen Ci.
Under the scorching sun, he looked at Wen Ci's cold and professional face from afar, but this was not what he really thought.
It seemed like it was his 28th birthday, and a group of people were playing a game. He was picked to tell the truth: "Wen Ci follows you around like a tail every day. She's been beautiful since she was a child. Have you ever had any inappropriate feelings for her? Hahaha, it doesn't matter if you did. You're not related by blood. It's better to give yourself a good deal than to give others a good deal..."
He drank and blurted out his rebuttal.
If he could go back in time, he would use a different story to explain their innocence.
Now thinking about it, it’s a good thing that Wen Ci didn’t know about it at the time, otherwise, she would have cried.
