Ming Jiayi strode into the dressing room.
There, Gu Shaonan was sitting with his legs crossed, fuming and angry.
"Do you even know how to do makeup? This makeup doesn't highlight my best features at all! Look at this highlighter, what kind of mess is that?"
"Young Master, can you do it yourself? I've already removed your makeup once. Isn't removing it again a waste of time?" The makeup artist said to Gu Shaonan speechlessly.
"Can you at least do my makeup properly? You're messing with my face and I can't even complain? And you call me a young master? Are you a princess?" Gu Shaonan replied matter-of-factly.
Ming Jiayi calmly sat in the chair, then skillfully picked up the cosmetics on the table and applied them to her face.
It took Ming Jiayi about ten minutes after she finished her makeup.
Gu Shaonan was still arguing with his makeup artist.
The two were deadlocked, and the makeup artist's hands were trembling as she applied the makeup.
However, the makeup artist didn't dare to really offend Gu Shaonan, so she could only keep changing his makeup according to his wishes.
"Actors in groups of four, come out and come with me to Studio 6 for filming," the assistant director shouted into the dressing room.
Ming Jiayi turned to look at the door, then stood up and walked out.
Gu Shaonan's makeup artist sped up, quickly patting his face.
"Can you slow down? What's the rush? Are you in a hurry to poop?" Gu Shaonan complained irritably.
"Young Master, didn't you hear the assistant director calling for reinforcements? I give up."
"So what? I'm not in a hurry, why are you?" Gu Shaonan rolled his eyes speechlessly.
…
Inside shed number 6
"Where's Gu Shaonan? Why hasn't he arrived yet?" the assistant director asked, dissatisfyingly.
Everyone looked at each other, none of them daring to answer the assistant director's question.
"I'm right here, what are you yelling about?" Gu Shaonan walked slowly forward from behind.
The assistant director was speechless and didn't even want to turn his head.
They specifically requested another studio from the production team so that filming could begin simultaneously on both sides, all because of what this young master had just said.
Now he's slow and the last one to arrive again.
This person's skin is thicker than a city wall.
"Okay, actors, get into the set and get ready. We'll begin right away."
The assistant director looked at the other three actors, including Ming Jiayi, and said.
Gu Shaonan curled his lip, snorted coldly, but also walked into the scene.
The first part they're going to film is five years later.
That day, Qin Yiran and her husband Xu Yu went shopping together and happened to run into their high school classmate Li Yicheng and his wife Mi Li.
Li Yicheng and Xu Yu pursued Qin Yiran for a long time back then. After they went to university, Qin Yiran got together with Xu Yu, and Li Yicheng could only sadly wish them well.
"Hey, Li Yicheng! Long time no see~" Qin Yiran greeted Li Yicheng with a sweet smile.
"Qin Yiran, what are you doing here?" Li Yicheng asked Qin Yiran with a cool expression.
"My husband and I went shopping together. And this is your girlfriend?" Qin Yiran asked Mi Li calmly.
Mi Li stepped forward and took Li Yicheng's hand, then smiled at Qin Yiran and said, "Hello, my name is Mi Li, and I am his wife."
Gu Shaonan stared intently at Ming Jiayi, momentarily forgetting his lines.
"Cut! Cut! Cut!" the assistant director shouted angrily through a megaphone. "Gu Shaonan, why aren't you saying your lines?"
Gu Shaonan rolled his eyes, then said impatiently, "I forgot."
The assistant director was so angry he held his forehead, unable to utter a single word.
After about nineteen takes, everyone on set was getting impatient.
"Clap c ...
"Assistant director, why don't you relax the standards a bit? At this rate, we won't finish filming in three more days," a staff member whispered to the assistant director.
"I've been very lenient, and he still can't even memorize his lines! I've never seen an actor like this in my life!" the assistant director yelled.
Ming Jiayi twisted the water Mo Xing handed her, drinking it while watching the assistant director who was throwing a tantrum.
Mo Xing stood next to Ming Jiayi, shaking her head and swaying her body.
"I really can't imagine what young master's life is like. He lost more than 30 million gambling a few days ago and he can still stand here and act like a spoiled young master. Sigh~ If I lost more than 30 million, I couldn't pay it back even if I sold myself."
Ming Jiayi looked at Mo Xing with suspicion, "Lost more than 30 million gambling? Gu Shaonan?"
"Yes. My colleague told us about it a few days ago. It was so outrageous that my jaw almost dropped."
"You originally planned to expose this matter?" Ming Jiayi raised an eyebrow and asked Mo Xing with great interest.
"No, we're just watching the drama unfold. We don't dare to expose this. Our boss is also very afraid of Gu Shaojin."
The staff member walked towards the center of the scene with the time card.
The four actors are already in place.
"First act, 20th time, Action!" the stagehand shouted weakly as he slammed down the paddle.
The three of them began the performance that they had already repeated nineteen times.
As expected, when it was Gu Shaonan's turn to say his lines, he forgot them once again.
Everyone shook their heads helplessly; they were all on the verge of collapse.
The assistant director scratched his nose, then his face turned bright red as he picked up the megaphone.
"Gu Shaonan, I'll give you ten more minutes. If you still can't get the first round through, I'll tell you that you lost over 30 million gambling a few days ago."
Ming Jiayi, Mo Xing, and even Gu Shaonan all looked at the assistant director with some confusion.
Um?
How did he know?
Gu Shaonan licked the left corner of his mouth with his tongue, then pointed his index finger at the assistant director and roared angrily with a displeased expression.
"You fucking try it on me, if you dare I won't break your damn legs."
"Xiao Li, the phone!" the assistant director shouted to his assistant beside him.
Gu Shaonan took off his coat and threw it forcefully onto the floor.
The next second, he ran to the monitor and forcefully pulled up the assistant director who was on the phone.
Upon seeing this, the staff immediately ran over and pulled Gu Shaonan away.
The scene descended into chaos.
"You kept babbling on and on, and I let it slide because you're the assistant director. But you've really gotten out of hand with it!" Gu Shaonan shouted, gesturing wildly.
The three staff members who were holding him tightened their grip a bit more.
In a fit of anger, the assistant director slammed his phone onto the floor and shattered it. He yelled at Gu Shaonan.
"You really think you're some kind of young master. Gu Shaojin is just your cousin. Without him, you're nothing. What are you putting on airs for? Do you really think everyone has to fawn over you?"
The assistant director's words seemed to have touched on something that was on Gu Shaonan's mind.
His veins bulged out.
He then forcefully broke free from the three men's grasp.
