Chapter 317 He came with wind and rain
The filming on the 6th and 7th went very smoothly.
After finishing the night scene on the evening of the 7th, the crew called it a day. On the way back to the B&B after packing up, everyone was praying that it would rain tomorrow as the weather forecast predicted.
As a result, the sky on the 8th was cloudy from morning to night. The crew had prepared everything, but after waiting for a long time, not a drop of rain fell.
When they finished work and returned to the B&B, Jing Yujun's face looked visibly bad. No one in the group dared to breathe, let alone go out for a walk.
Liu Wangxue was writing a script at the time, as a contingency plan for tomorrow's scene. When he heard a knock on the door, he clicked save and went to open the door.
Outside the door was Ni Jia, who was holding two bottles of juice. She couldn't sit still in the room, so she quietly went downstairs to buy drinks next door, and ran to Liu Wangxue with them.
Liu Wangxue let her into the house: "Why are you alone today? Where's Xiaoqing?"
Ni Jia came in and closed the door for her. "She was lying down reading a novel. She was either laughing or crying so hard that I couldn't even call her to stop her."
Liu Wangxue thought of the novel Xiaoqing recommended to her and smiled: "Then shouldn't you go and act with Lou Rui? Why are you here again? Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to get into the right state tomorrow and get scolded by the director?"
Lou Rui is the last male protagonist to appear in this story, and he is also the official partner of the female protagonist Ni Jia in the play.
Ni Jia handed her a bottle of juice and said, "Alas, Sister Xuxu, there is really no harm without comparison."
"What's wrong?" Liu Wangxue took it. It was hot. She unscrewed the cap and took a sip. "How did Lou Rui hurt you?"
Ni Jia also took a sip of juice and shook his head: "He didn't hurt me, I hurt him. Haven't you noticed? Since he joined the crew, the director basically doesn't scold me much, but criticizes him every day."
Ni Jia sighed: "Alas, a popular actor like Lou Rui has a pretty face and a great figure, but his acting skills are hard to describe."
Liu Wangxue understood that Ni Jia had complained to her privately several times that in some scenes, she only played half of her skills and the other party couldn't catch up. She was in great pain, and she couldn't find the hearty feeling she had when she acted opposite some veteran actors before.
Liu Wangxue comforted her: "After all, he is an idol and he is from our company, so you should be more tolerant. Besides, his appearance is more in line with your boyfriend character in the play. In one word, handsome, that's all."
Liu Wangxue looked at her mischievously: "And you have a character in the play, have you forgotten? You're just a face lover!"
Ni Jia smiled and whispered to Liu Wangxue, "Sister Xuxu, to be honest, I used to be a fan of him."
"What about now?" Liu Wangxue asked.
“Now, all the filters are broken—” Ni Jia collapsed into the chair.
Liu Wangxue looked at her and smiled, saying, "As far as idol business and interpersonal relationships are concerned, he is still quite good. You can't deny his entire person just because of this one shortcoming in acting."
"Alas, I am just obsessed with the strong." Ni Jiayi turned around and saw Liu Wangxue's computer screen, "Sister Xuxu, do we really need to change this scene?"
Liu Wangxue sat at the end of the bed, screwed the remaining half bottle cap on and put it aside, crossed her legs and said, "Not necessarily, it depends on tomorrow's weather conditions. This is just a contingency plan."
Ni Jia clasped his hands together and bowed to the sky: "Please, let it rain, otherwise the effect will not be so good after this scene is changed."
Liu Wangxue nodded: "The director doesn't want to change it, and I don't want to either, but if it doesn't rain, there's really nothing we can do. The ancient town is so small that the sprinkler truck can't get in."
As they were talking, the screen of Liu Wangxue's phone on the table lit up, and Ni Jia handed it to her: "It's the director."
Liu Wangxue took it, opened it and looked: "You asked me to come over, probably to talk about tomorrow's matter."
She got out of bed, put on her shoes, picked up her computer and was about to go out.
Ni Jia also stood up: "Can I go with you?"
"Okay, let's go."
The next morning, when everyone got up, they found that it was drizzling outside, and the eaves and bluestone pavement were all wet.
The entire crew cheered and didn’t even have time to eat breakfast. They quickly packed up and went to the shooting location.
However, everyone's joy did not last long. When they arrived at the filming location, the camera was set up, the props were arranged, and the actors were in place, the rain suddenly stopped.
Jing Yujun didn't even get the word "action" out of his mouth, as he forced the word back into his throat, his expression instantly becoming several shades uglier.
Liu Wangxue handed him a glass of water and said, "Wait a little longer. The forecast says it will rain. It looks like it will continue to rain soon."
Jing Yujun took the cup and held it in his hand, not in the mood to drink: "Let's wait until noon. If that doesn't work, then Plan B."
This scene must be shot today, because tomorrow is forecast to be a sunny day, which is also a day off for the crew. They will rush to Qiandao Lake the day after tomorrow. If they are delayed here, the trip to Qiandao Lake will have to be postponed, and then the rental period of the shooting location in Hengdian may not be enough.
All members of the crew were on standby, and when it was noon and they were about to use Plan B, dark clouds suddenly moved in and it started to rain.
The heroine and her friend were strolling along the street taking pictures when it suddenly started to rain. Although it wasn't heavy, they both didn't like being wet, and the rain at this time was also chilly. So the two walked into a milk tea bar on the side of the road, ordered a cup of hot drink, and sat by the window to watch the rain.
The two chatted casually, and suddenly the woman's phone rang: "My friend is here, he can't find the way, I'll go over to answer it."
Her friend was happy for her: "Is that the handsome guy you video chatted with yesterday? Is he pursuing you? Go, go!"
The heroine borrowed an umbrella from the milk tea shop owner, left her friend there, and went out to pick up the hero.
The heroine walked towards the place the hero mentioned for a while before she remembered that she could turn on location sharing, so she took out her phone again and sent a message to the hero.
After receiving it, the male protagonist told her not to move and said he could find it.
The heroine walked into a small pavilion by the water, put away her umbrella, sat on the beauty's seat and watched the rain falling from the eaves.
She waited for a long time, the rain gradually got heavier, and suddenly she heard someone calling her name. She turned around and was stunned.
The male protagonist ran over from the rain, took three or two steps up the stairs, and stood in front of her.
The ends of his wet hair were still dripping with water, his off-white coat was also covered in moisture, and his eyes seemed to have been soaked in rain, and there was moist tenderness in his eyes as he looked at the heroine.
As he stepped onto the steps, his shoulder brushed against a cluster of branches and leaves of the red maple tree, and then carried them under the eaves of the pavilion, hitting the pillars and bouncing back into the rain. After the water droplets splashed everywhere, they trembled again to receive a new round of washing.
