Chapter 5 What are you daydreaming about?
A week later, at the film and television city, a fantasy drama crew started filming in a low-key manner.
Neither the male nor the female protagonist is a famous actor, and most of the supporting roles are newcomers. Qiu Chi blends in among them and is not conspicuous, but some people still noticed her.
For example, Fang Yuming who plays the male lead, and Liu Yuer who plays the female lead.
Both of these people are important people.
Fang Yuming is the third male lead, who falls in love with Su Anan at first sight.
Liu Yuer is the third girl, she is the younger sister of Lu Mingxuan's Bai Yueguang.
Qiu Chi's appearance was so similar to Liu Yuer's sister that Liu Yuer noticed her at first sight.
She called her assistant to inquire about Qiu Chi.
The assistant said, "That's Brother Chen's newly signed artist. I think his stage name is Qiu Chi, but I don't know his real name."
"Has Brother Lu seen her?"
"You haven't seen it, have you? I haven't heard anyone talk about it."
Qiu Chi saw everything Liu Yuer asked about her. She didn't actually have much role at the moment, but she was a young actor and still had to learn from the crew. Although the crew was big enough, she had sharp eyes and ears.
Compared to Liu Yuer's inquiries, Fang Yuming came directly to chat: "Hello, we met at the company, do you remember?"
Qiu Chi said indifferently: "I don't remember."
The indifferent attitude not only did not frustrate Fang Yuming, but instead aroused his competitive spirit: "It doesn't matter if you don't remember, I remember it now. Let me introduce myself. My name is Fang Yuming, what's yours?"
Qiu Chi did not answer Fang Yuming's question. She looked at Liu Yuer who was looking at her.
Liu Yuer, who was caught, was not embarrassed. She nodded and smiled, then lowered her head to read the script.
Qiu Chi then turned around and looked at Fang Yuming: "Please stay away from me, I don't know you well."
"We're just not familiar with each other now, but won't we become familiar with each other after we get to know each other?"
"Then let me make it clear. I don't want to know you, nor do I want to be familiar with you, so don't bother me. Do you understand now?"
Fang Yuming was surprised by Qiu Chi's indifferent attitude. He frowned, somewhat dissatisfied with being treated indifferently again and again, and finally got up and left.
Only then did Qiu Chi feel that his ears were quiet.
The role of Qiu Chi does not require much acting skills, so Qiu Chi played it quite easily and did not always make mistakes.
The male and female protagonists of this drama both have average acting skills, and neither of them are professional actors. In addition, as the male and female protagonists, they need to express their emotions well, so there are quite a lot of NGs.
But both of them are relatives of the other actors and staff, so even if they are dissatisfied, they can't say anything.
In addition, both of them are very good at dealing with people. Whenever they are delayed, they either treat them to a meal or to coffee or milk tea. No one says anything to them, and the crew seems to be harmonious on the surface.
Qiu Chi is like an outlier among them, because she always keeps to herself and never socializes with others.
The system didn't care. The plot had already progressed, and it was afraid that if it said too much, it would anger Qiu Chi again.
During the filming, no one from Gu Ting or the Su family contacted her, and Qiu Chi was happy to have some peace and quiet.
If there was anything bad, it was probably that Fang Yuming came to harass her from time to time.
"I asked someone to buy some milk tea. Here, this is yours."
Qiu Chi glanced at him and didn't even bother to say anything to him. Her patience with Fang Yuming had reached its limit. If it happened again, she would definitely beat him up first.
Seeing that Qiu Chi ignored him, he put the milk tea next to Qiu Chi before leaving.
After returning to her seat, Liu Yu'er smiled and said, "You are quite attentive, but don't forget, it's us two who are going to hype up the couple, not you and her."
Fang Yuming also laughed: "I remember that. They're just hyping up a couple, but they're not real couples. What's wrong with me talking to them?"
Liu Yu'er snorted and said nothing more.
This apparent harmony was not broken until Lu Mingxuan visited the set.
The person who was most happy about Lu Mingxuan's visit was naturally Liu Yu'er. She excitedly ran up to Lu Mingxuan and said, "Brother Lu, are you here to see me?"
After the excitement, Liu Yuer's heart skipped a beat. She immediately thought of Qiu Chi's face, which was 70% like her sister.
And Lu Mingxuan did not disappoint her. After greeting her, Lu Mingxuan saw Qiu Chi and walked forward.
Liu Yuer, who was left behind, suddenly looked ugly. Although she quickly returned to normal, the look she gave Qiu Chi was not as peaceful as before.
Lu Mingxuan walked up to Qiu Chi and said, "Nice to meet you again. Do you remember me?"
Qiu Chi still had a cold expression on his face: "Who are you? I don't know you."
Qiu Chi sits close to the director most of the time because she watches how the director shoots and how the actors perform.
Now that Lu Mingxuan came over to greet Qiu Chi, the director naturally heard it. He wiped the sweat from his head and reminded Qiu Chi, "This is the boss of our Hua Ming."
"Oh, it's the boss. I'm sorry, I'm just a small employee and have never met the boss before."
When Qiu Chi spoke, he still had a expressionless face.
Liu Yu'er, who followed, said with a smile, "Brother Lu, don't bother with Qiu Chi. She's just like this. We haven't seen her smile in such a long time."
Lu Mingxuan looked at Liu Yu'er and asked, "Are you two close?"
Liu Yu'er nodded without hesitation and said, "Yes, we have a very good relationship. After all, Qiu Chi looks..."
Having said that, Liu Yu'er suddenly fell silent, looking a little depressed.
Lu Mingxuan reached out and patted Liu Yuer's shoulder without saying anything, but he was not in the mood to chat with Qiu Chi.
At this time, Qiu Chi spoke up, addressing Liu Yu'er: "Your acting skills right now are much better than when you were acting. If you had applied your acting skills right now to your acting, you wouldn't have to do so many NGs."
No one expected that Qiu Chi, who was taciturn most of the time, would say something so shocking at this moment. Everyone looked at her with undisguised astonishment.
Among them are Lu Mingxuan and Liu Yuer.
After being stunned, tears welled up in Liu Yu'er's eyes. "I know my acting is pretty average, and I'm sorry for wasting everyone's time, but I've been working hard. And just now, that wasn't acting. I really didn't expect you, Qiu Chi, to see me like this."
As she spoke, she looked at Lu Mingxuan and said in a tearful voice, "Brother Lu, that was really not acting..."
Lu Mingxuan looked at Qiu Chi with a hint of displeasure. He patted Liu Yu'er's shoulder and said, "I know you're not acting."
After saying that, he looked at Qiu Chi with displeasure and said, "Apologize to Yu'er, and this matter will be over."
Qiu Chi looked at Lu Mingxuan as if he were mentally retarded: "Apologize? What are you daydreaming about?"
The people around were so shocked that they were speechless. They never thought that Qiu Chi could be so arrogant.
Lu Mingxuan didn't expect Qiu Chi to be so arrogant. He frowned tightly and was about to say something when Qiu Chi's phone rang.
When Qiu Chi took out his cell phone and saw who was calling, a hint of disgust flashed across his face, but he still answered the phone.
As soon as the call was connected, Gu Ting's tone, mixed with disgust and impatience, came out of the phone: "Su Anan, Yingying is well again and we need to celebrate. Remember to come back tomorrow."
After saying that, he hung up the phone without giving Qiu Chi a chance to speak.
Qiu Chi raised an eyebrow, thinking that Gu Ting really deserved a beating. His face should have healed by now, so he could give him another beating to add some color.
After thinking about this, Lu Mingxuan frowned and spoke, but this time he was not talking about an apology, but about the phone call just now.
"Do you know Gu Ting?"
Lu Mingxuan returned to China a year ago to take over Huaming Entertainment, and Su Anan got engaged to Gu Ting a year and a half ago, so it was normal that he didn't know Su Anan.
"Yes, I know Gu Ting, and I'm going to a banquet. Do you want to join me?"
Things turned around so quickly that they could hardly keep up.
Liu Yu'er couldn't help but widen her eyes. After giving Qiu Chi a fierce look, she bit her lip and called out pitifully, "Brother Lu..."
Unfortunately, it’s useless to call out “Brother Lu” more times.
Lu Mingxuan hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement: "Okay."
Then Qiu Chi stood up, asked for leave from the director, and left the crew without looking back, without even looking at Lu Mingxuan and Liu Yuer.
