Chapter 994 Now is not the time to settle accounts
Lin Ruoxuan's assistant's face paled slightly, clearly not expecting Zhen Yan to be so calm. She even hinted at Lin Ruoxuan's earlier incident of spilling coffee. She snorted, tossed her hair, and said arrogantly, "Since there's a problem with the costume, don't delay the shoot. If it affects everyone, you won't be able to bear the responsibility."
Zhen Yan calmly packed her makeup bag and replied without looking up, "Don't bother with that. If I can't handle it, then some people can't handle it either. You should go back and tell Lin Ruoxuan to focus more on her acting skills during filming and stop doing these little tricks."
The assistant was speechless. She glared at Zhen Yan fiercely and walked away with her high heels clicking.
Zhen Yan watched her departing figure, a cold look in her eyes. She quickly pulled out her phone and called Zheng Qian, briefly explaining the damage to her costume. She then contacted the costume team, informing them that her costume had been stained with red wine and needed urgent repair or replacement.
The costume designer jumped up and down in panic when he heard this. "What's going on? We've carefully prepared everything according to Director Chen's instructions. Now we're rushing to make an identical set. We're running out of time!"
Zhen Yan said calmly, "I know time is tight. Please see if you can remove the stain first, and I'll try to find a solution. If that doesn't work, please help me find another suitable costume. As long as it meets the requirements of the character and the scene, it will be fine."
After hanging up the phone, Zhen Yan began to search the dressing room for any other clothes she could use. It suddenly occurred to her that she had a spare coat there from filming another scene. While it wasn't the chiffon dress she'd originally planned on, it might look different if paired with it.
She dug out the coat and some accessories from her personal belongings, beginning to mentally formulate a new look. At the same time, she turned on her recorder and recorded her conversation with Lin Ruoxuan's assistant, as well as her response to the damage to her outfit, just in case.
Half an hour later, Zheng Qian rushed to the dressing room. Seeing Zhen Yan fiddling with her clothes and accessories, she anxiously asked, "How's it going? Have you settled the costume issue? Director Chen is already rushing us; the first scene is about to start filming."
Zhen Yan told Zheng Qian about her thoughts and the measures she had already taken. Zheng Qian's brows relaxed slightly after hearing this. "I'm relieved that you handled it so calmly. But Lin Ruoxuan went too far this time. After filming is over, I will definitely settle the score with her."
Zhen Yan shook her head. "Now is not the time to settle accounts. The most important thing is to finish filming this scene smoothly. Sister Zheng, can you help me take a look at this look and see if there is anything that needs to be adjusted?"
Zheng Qian carefully studied Zhen Yan, offering some suggestions, and together they put the finishing touches on the look. Just then, the costume team arrived with the processed scraps of fabric and the altered garment. While the chiffon dress could no longer be fully restored, the team had cleverly crafted a unique cape from the remaining fabric and other materials. Paired with the coat and accessories Zhen Yan had found, the cape had a unique aesthetic.
Zhen Yan put on her new look, turned around in front of the mirror, and nodded with satisfaction: "That's it, time is running out, let's go to the set."
Arriving on the set, Director Chen frowned slightly when he saw Zhen Yan's outfit: "This outfit is different from the one in the final photo. What's going on?"
