In the office, Lin also brought a cup of coffee to Su Xi and sat down opposite her.
Su Xi picked up the glass and took a sip. Looking at Lin Ye's still scarred face, she felt guilty. "I'm really sorry about what happened last time. I dragged you into this and almost damaged your reputation."
Lin was also displeased, "What is our relationship? You don't need to apologize."
"No matter how good the relationship is, you still have to be clear about things." Su Xi clearly distinguishes between public and private matters, and she always puts Lin Ye first, especially when it comes to his affairs.
For her, Lin was also a friend.
They are family.
Lin Ye's eyes were slightly melancholy, his hands in his pockets, seemingly lost in thought.
After a long pause, he finally asked, "Is this how you feel about Jingming too?"
Su Xi blurted out, "Him? We don't need to worry about him."
Lin also laughed self-deprecatingly.
He was cautious and careful around him, but treated Zhou Jingming as he pleased.
But he didn't want her to be like that.
He hoped that she could treat him the way she treated Zhou Jingming.
"If the woman who admires you saw you injured like this, she would definitely feel sorry for you."
Su Xi thought Lin Ye would be able to rest for a while, but she didn't expect that the man was so career-oriented that he came back to work as soon as he recovered.
Sometimes she couldn't understand it. Lin also came from a wealthy family and could have easily gone back to inherit the company.
But he didn't choose that path; instead, he became a doctor.
"you……"
"Dr. Lin, are you available now?"
Just as Lin was about to say something, there was a knock on the door.
A girl in a white coat stood at the door.
The girl had a gentle and delicate appearance, a tall and slender figure, and was carrying a large document in her arms.
Knowing that Lin was busy, Su Xi stood up and said, "I won't disturb your work. Let's chat again when you have time."
As a woman, Su Xi could easily see the admiration in the girl's eyes and her first reaction was that the girl liked Lin Ye.
Why doesn't she run away at this point? Why stay and be a third wheel?
...
Because Su Rou was unwell, all of Su Xi's scenes with her were postponed, and Su Xi was able to enjoy a few peaceful days.
Friday.
Su Rou recovered and returned to the film crew. She had become so thin from her illness that she looked unrecognizable, and her complexion was terrible. Even heavy makeup couldn't hide her haggard appearance.
Upon seeing Su Xi, Su Rou maintained her haughty demeanor, saying, "We're filming a face-slapping scene today. If you beg me now, perhaps I'll go easy on you later."
Su Xi smiled and lazily glanced at her without saying a word.
That look made Su Rou feel uneasy, as if she was about to suffer a terrible misfortune.
Su Rou snorted and walked towards Qin Na and her group.
After Su Rou walked away, Hua Qing approached and said, "Your face is definitely going to be swollen today. Let me go get you some ice."
"No need." Su Xi pulled her back. "Su Rou can't touch me."
"She's about to hit you, how come you can't move?"
Hua Qing really didn't know how Su Xi could still laugh.
If it were her, and someone she disliked offered themselves up to be beaten, she would definitely beat them so badly that even their own mother wouldn't recognize them.
Moreover, Su Rou dislikes Su Xi so much that she'll probably beat her to death.
Su Xi casually crossed her legs, holding a coffee in her hand, her posture relaxed. "Sister Hua, what role do I play?"
"The female lead."
"That's right, how can a maid hit the mistress?"
"What do you want to do?" Hua Qing really couldn't figure out Su Xi's thoughts.
Su Xi flicked her ponytail and grinned mischievously, "Of course a disobedient maid needs to be disciplined."
Before filming began, Director Zhu came over to announce that a big star would be making a cameo appearance.
Such incidents are not uncommon on film crews.
However, Director Zhu's dramas are always cast according to schedule, with almost no exceptions to add actors at the last minute.
Everyone was thinking that this big star must be highly favored by Director Zhu, otherwise Director Zhu wouldn't have added scenes halfway through.
"Director Zhu, is it a man or a woman?" Qin Na asked curiously.
Director Zhu smiled, clearly in a good mood. "He's an actor with phenomenal acting skills. With him on board, our movie is sure to be a huge hit."
Male actors...
Everyone looked at each other, wondering who the other person was.
Director Zhu walked up to Su Xi, showing great confidence in her. "Today you have a scene with the other actor. There's no script, so you'll have to improvise. I believe you can handle this role and won't let me down."
Su Xi showed no sign of nervousness and said confidently, "I will do my best."
The staff had everything ready, and the first scene was Su Rou slapping Su Xi.
Su Rou stood in front of Su Xi, her face full of smugness. "I'm giving you face, but you still don't appreciate it. Then don't blame me for being impolite."
Not far away, Zhou Li and Qin Na and a group of people waited quietly to watch the show.
This is going to be good; Su Xi is about to get her face slapped to pieces!
[Will Su Xi's head be swollen like a pig's head later? Will she run home crying?]
Once she's disfigured and scarred, Young Master Zhou definitely won't give her a second glance. Su Xi can just wait to be divorced.
I can't wait to see Su Xi look disheveled, I'm so excited!
The lighting crew, camera crew, and props crew are all ready and in place.
"action"
Director Zhu announced the start.
Su Xi had memorized her lines very well and poured her emotions into them, perfectly portraying the down-and-out state of the female general.
Su Rou was not as generous as Su Xi. She was sick for a few days and forgot her lines. Her acting was stiff and out of place, which made Director Zhu frown and call for a stop.
“Su Rou, you’re a villain now. Show your vicious side.”
Su Rou explained, "Director Zhu, I'm still a little out of shape, but I'm sure I can do it the second time."
However, Su Rou's acting was terrible, and Director Zhu kept calling for a retake.
In the end, Director Zhu lost his temper and almost roared, "Su Rou, are you even capable? If not, let Su Xi demonstrate for you."
"OK."
Su Xi smiled with an innocent and romantic expression.
Then, she switched roles and entered the world of Su Rou.
She delivered her lines with practiced ease and emotion, her movements and expressions perfectly executed, before slapping Su Rou hard across the face: "You wretch! How dare you offend the Imperial Concubine! You deserve to die!"
The slap was hard; Su Rou's face was turned to the side, and her ears were ringing.
Not only was Su Rou stunned.
Everyone in the room was stunned.
Su Xi, she...
The acting is just too good!
How is that possible? Isn't she a newcomer?
After a brief silence, two rounds of applause followed.
One of the dishes originated from Director Zhu.
Another sound came from behind me.
Everyone turned their heads.
Director Zhu even stood up from his seat and personally went to greet him, saying, "Xu Lang, you've finally arrived! I thought you were going to stand me up again."
As soon as Xu Lang appeared, all the female celebrities screamed.
Everyone knows Xu Lang.
Recently, a fresh-faced young actor.
He has a physique comparable to international male models and a sunny, handsome face.
He is the prince charming in the hearts of countless women.
In the past few days, in order to protect Qiao Xing, he publicly revealed his relationship with Qiao Xing and confessed that he was Xing Lan's junior brother, which made him a hot topic of discussion online.
Traffic surged.
