"Look at your closest friends, they haven't even come to see you much lately."
Gu Ying coldly met Ci Nian's gaze on the bed, her eyes like ice from an ice cave.
A flash of hatred crossed Ci Nian's eyes, and she gripped the bedsheets beneath her so tightly they were practically falling apart.
However, she remained relatively clear-headed and rationally looked at Gu Ying, sneering, "So what? What do you want to do? My bad luck in choosing a partner has nothing to do with you?"
This woman who appeared out of nowhere is dangerous.
Gu Ying glanced at her. The little mouse was putting up a last-ditch effort, but she could take it slow…
She often plays the game of cat and mouse.
"Ci Nian, you're awake?"
The palace maid who pushed open the door saw that Cinian's forehead was covered in cold sweat and asked worriedly, "Is your buttock still very painful?"
Ci Nian was terrified when she saw the woman vanish without a trace...
That woman... was she a human or a ghost...?
Seeing that Ci Nian ignored her and kept staring at a certain place, the little palace maid looked at her strangely, glanced at the corner, and saw nothing.
But seeing how frightened she was, he shuddered slightly, grabbed her things, and turned to leave.
Has Ci Nian been beaten senseless?
The camera zooms out further and further away from the little palace maid.
"Card"
Liu Yi called a halt, and Dou Shiliu, who was inside the room, suddenly came out. She was asked to go behind the curtain in a moment to maintain the mystery.
"Thank you for your hard work, everyone. Staff, please check the props thoroughly for any dangerous items like nails or stones. Make sure to check every single one, inside and out."
Director Liu is now paying extra attention to this matter, because if he makes even the slightest mistake, his budget will be stretched thin.
The staff also carefully checked all the props to be used in the next scene, inside and out.
There were no problems this time, but the next scene will be a bit more difficult. It involves a minor squabble among the palace maids and requires some action.
Did you think it was hair-pulling or choking?
No, after the staff confirmed that everything was correct, Liu Yi moved on to the next scene. After communicating with Duo Xi, she asked her to portray Gu Yingyao, who was played by Dou Shiliu.
One must remain as indifferent as water in ice.
"start"
Staff members began carrying cameras and following Ci Nian inside and out.
After Ci Nian had been bedridden for a long time, the injury on her buttocks began to gradually improve, and she was able to get out of bed and walk around.
Fortunately, she had some savings and secretly bought some bruise-reducing ointment, otherwise she might have been left with scars.
Ci Nian rubbed her little bottom and suddenly remembered Gu Ying, who had been sitting by the bedside that day. Gu Ying's delicate skin and her appearance were a stark contrast.
She pursed her lips, got out of bed, put the ointment away, straightened the bed, opened the door, and went out to start working.
She rested for so many days, and her things piled up like a mountain.
Upon arriving at the laundry room, I sorted out the masters' clothes, placed them in a wooden basin, and then went to the well to fetch water myself.
"Special effects are available here. Actors, start filming now."
Liu Yi pointed at Duo Xi's face and said, "Turn the corner and give Ge a close-up."
Just as Ci Nian was about to turn around and go to the well with the basin of water, she suddenly heard a quarrel.
Her steps suddenly stopped. Ci Nian, holding a basin of water, paused at the corner, a look of doubt flashing in her eyes.
Who is it?
Ci Nian glanced over there, her pupils suddenly contracting sharply, and the basin of water she was holding fell to the ground with a loud bang.
"who?"
Ci Nian was startled back to her senses and hurriedly picked up the basin of water, turning around to run away.
But in his haste, he fell to the ground.
