A woman dressed in a light blue robe burst through the door.
Seeing Yueqin dressed in red, her clothes disheveled, standing beside the man, looking as if she was about to cry, the woman's beautiful eyes furrowed deeply.
With a "whoosh," the longsword was drawn.
The woman held a long sword, its blade pointed at the two men.
"Li Ruiyang, you spent the night with this brothel woman behind my back, what explanation do you have?"
After speaking, the woman raised her long sword and thrust it at Yueqin.
However, the sword didn't pierce Luo Jiu as the script predicted. Instead, it didn't even touch her body before Shu Ya flung her away halfway.
"Click!"
Ji Liang was still immersed in filming, and he had already figured out how to edit the footage to include Luo Jiu's segment in the trailer.
However, Shuya's mistake made him frown.
"Director, I'm sorry."
Before Ji Liang could even get angry, Shu Ya came over to apologize, her bright eyes filled with remorse.
Remembering that she wasn't formally trained and had powerful connections, Ji Liang didn't dare offend her and could only say, "Let's do it again."
Shuya thrust her sword at Yueqin, and Li Ruiyang rushed over to stop her, saying, "What's wrong with you?" Then the two started fighting.
There was supposed to be a really exciting fight scene here, however...
"Click!"
Ji Liang was about to throw the script away.
"What's wrong with you? How did you turn such a simple fight scene into this? Didn't you get any training before joining the crew?"
"I'm so sorry, Director. My daughter Shuya had a very busy schedule before joining the crew and didn't have time for intensive training." The assistant quickly came over to explain the situation.
"Yes, director, we can just call a stunt double when the time comes."
Not to mention the director, even Luo Jiu, who was standing to the side, didn't know what to think.
This actor is so unprofessional! Can't they be a little more professional? Do they think filming a period drama is just about posing and saying a few lines? Do their fans even know this?
Ji Liang's blood pressure soared from her words. Looking at Shu Ya's feigned innocence, he was utterly speechless.
"You...go find the coach. If you don't perform this scene well today, then..."
Ji Liang was about to say that he shouldn't come again when the producer tugged at his sleeve.
This person brought her own investment to the production. My dear director, if you terminate her contract, this show will probably be a flop, and all these people will starve.
"Director, please don't be angry, I'm coming right now."
Seeing that Ji Liang was truly angry, Shu Ya didn't dare to say anything in response. After all, although this drama was a small production, it was one she had begged for a long time to get.
Moreover, it is not a wise choice to fall out with the director on set.
Compared to Shu Ya, Ji Liang found Luo Jiu increasingly pleasing to the eye and more approachable.
So what if you're a big star? You still rely on connections to promote you. Don't think you're something special just because you have a few fans. If your professional skills aren't up to par, see which production team will dare to hire you in the future.
"Luo Jiu, Ling Yan, you two come and rest for a bit."
What was supposed to be a quick scene has dragged on for so long. Two actors have been acting with her for so long; I really don't know what's going on in Shuya's head.
Luo Jiu tugged at the red robe wrapped around her body and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although it's already autumn, the weather is still like summer, with wave after wave of heat making it hard to breathe.
Not to mention the two people dressed in period costumes in the studio. After filming a scene, they looked like they had been soaked in water, their faces covered in sweat.
"Here, wipe it off." Ling Yan handed over a tissue and smiled at Luo Jiu.
"Thanks."
Luo Jiu wiped away the sweat, looked around but didn't see Li Li. Reluctant to leave the cool fan, she sat lazily in the chair.
I met you two years ago, do you remember?
Upon hearing this, Luo Jiu turned to look at Ling Yan in confusion.
"Pfft."
Luo Jiu's expression amused Ling Yan; her eyes crinkled, full of teasing.
"It was at a charity gala."
Luo Jiu desperately searched for the scene Ling Yan had described, and finally recalled it from a corner of the original owner's memories.
The girl group the original owner belonged to was invited to participate and perform the opening dance. At that time, the original owner had only been in the girl group for a month and was far inferior to the original members.
As expected, the final result was riddled with errors, and unsurprisingly, it became a trending topic that day.
"You still remember such an embarrassing thing?" Luo Jiu said helplessly, wondering when the original owner's mess would ever be filled.
Ling Yan realized that his words were somewhat ambiguous, and quickly explained, "I'm not making fun of you, I'm just marveling at how much your dancing has improved in the past two years."
"Moreover, your acting skills have improved a lot, really."
Luo Jiu was somewhat surprised to receive Ling Yan's praise. After all, Ling Yan had recently won the Best Newcomer Award, and his acting skills were among the best of the young actors.
"Don't say that," Luo Jiu said, feeling a little embarrassed.
Not long after, Shuya returned from the training camp. She already had a background in dance, so she could quickly learn these martial arts moves when she was sad.
"The fourth preparation for the tenth scene of 'The Brocade Letter', action."
In the drama, Bai Yanlan charged towards Luo Jiu with a long sword in hand.
Bai Yanlan is the female lead of this drama, a chivalrous woman who roams the world with her sword. At this moment, she should be facing the male lead with her sword drawn. Although she believes that this woman seduced her husband, her pride does not allow her to lay a hand on a woman.
But clearly, Shuya didn't immerse herself in the role. She was supposed to be the most dazzling female lead in the drama, so why was everyone's attention focused on Luo Jiu?
She's just a nobody, what right does she have to try and steal my thunder?
Ji Liang frowned upon seeing this action. Just as he was about to call for a stop, an unexpected event occurred.
Caught off guard, Luo Jiu quickly dodged when she saw the sword pointing at her.
Unexpectedly, Shuya missed with her first sword strike and stabbed again.
Although it's a prop, it's still somewhat sharp in order to make it realistic.
Luo Jiu's left arm was slashed by a sword, leaving a deep gash that instantly stained the entire arm with blood.
Luo Jiu was in so much pain that she couldn't cry out, her brows furrowed tightly. Her eyes were already filled with tears, which seemed ready to spill over at any moment.
"Luo Jiu!"
Ling Yan went to help Luo Jiu up. He never expected that things would turn out this way in an instant. He saw Shu Ya pointing the sword at Luo Jiu and was puzzled for a second. But in that second, he didn't have time to block the sword.
When Lili saw this, she rushed forward and was heartbroken to see her sister sweating profusely.
Seeing that Shuya was still carrying that blood-stained sword, he couldn't suppress his anger any longer and shoved Shuya away.
He yelled, "What are you still looking at? Call 120!"
Shuya stood there, stunned, watching the ambulance carry Luo Jiu away, without saying a word throughout the entire process.
“I didn’t mean to, and I didn’t expect the sword to be so sharp. I just wanted to scare her.”
The assistant standing nearby couldn't help but sigh. This woman really knows how to cause trouble. So many times, and she still hasn't learned her lesson.
