Chapter 83 The top actress uses her beauty to commit crimes 3
As soon as Jiang Tang returned to the crew, she felt the sympathetic gazes from those around her.
She naturally knew why they looked at her that way. Yesterday, after she posted about her past with Ji Xun on Weibo, it became a hot topic within minutes.
The unexpected reversal shocked everyone.
Jiang Tang first went to apologize to the director, saying that she left because of her previous illness and had been in the hospital for the past few days. She was also willing to bear the expenses lost by the crew in the past few days.
The director was indeed very angry at first, but he also saw Jiang Tang's Weibo post yesterday. Now, seeing Jiang Tang's pale face, which did not seem fake, he felt a little sorry and sighed: "Forget it, there are only three days left. You just need to change your clothes and finish the rest of the scenes."
"Thank you, director." She breathed a sigh of relief.
Jiang Tang heard a cold snort as she turned around. She raised her eyes and met a pair of eyes with a woman wearing very heavy makeup.
The woman rolled her eyes at her and turned away.
According to the original owner's memory, Jiang Tang recognized that she was the person who liked to target Jiang Tang the most in the crew, and she was also the villain Ning Yuan who would play opposite her later.
When the original owner Jiang Tang first joined the crew, she was targeted by Ning Yuan many times for no reason, and was even often secretly filmed and maliciously edited and posted online, which gave her a reputation for being a big shot for no apparent reason.
Later, when Jiang Tang found out, she went to confront her and learned that Ning Yuan was a friend of that 13th-tier celebrity.
This was the first time she had seen someone being a mistress so openly, not only that, but also bringing her friends along with her...
A cold look flashed across Jiang Tang's eyes, and then she went to change her clothes and put on makeup before coming out.
The director looked at Jiang Tang, dressed in white and looking ethereal, and finally nodded with satisfaction, revealing a little smile: "Not bad, come here and I will explain the play to you..."
This is a fictional ancient drama adapted from a novel. More than half of the filming has been completed and the ending is still missing.
The ending is that Ning Yuan, the female supporting character, cannot get the love she wants and bears a grudge against the heroine Jiang Tang. Finally, she lets the undercover agent who is lurking beside the heroine drug her, kidnap her, and then beat her severely until the hero arrives to rescue her.
After listening to the director's explanation of the play, Jiang Tang said: "…………"
What kind of stupid, melodramatic hero-saving-the-beauty plot is this?!
Ning Yuan raised her lips slightly while holding the whip in her hand, with a hint of impatience in her eyes: "Director, I'm ready! Let's get started!"
"Okay." The director clapped his hands. "Everyone, take your positions. Action!"
In an instant, all the sounds in the venue fell silent, and everyone's eyes fell on the two people the camera was facing.
The dilapidated temple, which had not been repaired for many years, was covered with cobwebs and was damp and dark.
"You bitch!" An unexpected whip landed on Jiang Tang's back.
Jiang Tang gritted his teeth so hard that he didn't scream, but just stared at her with cold eyes.
Ning Yuan's heart trembled at the look in her eyes, but she was immediately met with gloating. She raised her hand and lashed Jiang Tang's back with a whip, reciting the lines: "If it weren't for you, how could Brother Lin treat me like that? It's all because of you!"
The whip kept hitting Jiang Tang. Ning Yuan said, "Today... today..."
"Cut!" The director looked at Ning Yuan: "What's wrong with you? Where are your lines?!"
"I'm sorry, director!" Ning Yuan apologized hurriedly, looking flustered. "I forgot the words. Can you do it again?"
The director frowned. What else could he do except try again? He decided to have everyone prepare again, and the theater fell silent again.
"Snap—" Ning Yuan raised the whip high and lashed it at Jiang Tang, saying excitedly: "...Ha Qiu!"
Ning Yuan sneezed and the shot was ruined for the second time.
"Ning Yuan! Why are you sneezing? Where are your lines?!" The director looked at her unhappily.
Ning Yuan also looked apologetic and quickly bowed to the director: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Director, I'm a little unwell so I'm not in a good mood today. Can we do it again?"
The director looked sullen and said nothing, but agreed to do it again.
The third time, Ning Yuan still didn't recite the lines, and Jiang Tang was whipped for no reason again.
The director scolded Ning Yuan again. Ning Yuan apologized sincerely and begged the director to do it again.
After she finished speaking, she looked at Jiang Tang, who had been hit by the "Shi Li San," and said softly, "I was indeed a little out of shape today, so I had to do so many NGs. Can you understand?"
Jiang Tang nodded and smiled slightly, her tone gentle, but her eyes were cold: "Of course I can understand."
"That's good." Ning Yuan raised her lips triumphantly and looked at the director: "Director, let's do it one last time. I'm sure I can perform well this time."
Just as the director was about to agree, Jiang Tang spoke up: "Director, when I was reading the script earlier, I also thought about the villain's role. Senior Ning said that she was not in good condition today, so I want to try Senior Ning's role to help her get into shape. Is that okay?"
Ning Yuan's face froze when she heard that. She then quickly looked at the director and said hurriedly, "Director, let's do it one last time. I..."
"Senior Ning!" Jiang Tang looked at her with a smile. Her face was pale, but it didn't hide her kindness at all: "What if you fail again later? There are still some scenes to come. We can't be stuck here forever, not to mention that everyone has to wait for dinner..."
The other people in the theater couldn't help but glance at Ning Yuan when they heard this. They were indeed annoyed. Such a simple scene dragged on for so long. Some people had praised Ning Yuan's acting skills before, but they didn't know how to say it out loud.
Just as the director was hesitating, the stagehand beside him said, "Director, I think we can let Jiang Tang try..."
The director was concentrating on his acting and the lines and didn't pay attention, but they saw it clearly. The beating scenes in the play were obviously just for show, but Ning Yuan's whip fell on Jiang Tang.
Thinking of the Weibo posts Jiang Tang had made, he felt a little sorry for her. Moreover, if Ning Yuan continued to drag things on like this, they wouldn't have time to leave work...
The director was persuaded and was shaken. It was not a solution to keep on doing it like this. Moreover, Jiang Tang seemed a little different today and his acting skills had obviously improved a lot.
After some deliberation, the director finally agreed: "Okay, let Jiang Tang try it. Ning Yuan, you should learn from him!"
Ning Yuan widened her eyes in disbelief when she heard this, as if she didn't expect the director to actually agree.
Jiang Tang had already picked up the whip, his fingers slowly rubbing the handle, and smiled at her: "Senior Ning, we are all trying to finish the scene as soon as possible, so if I hit it a little too hard later, you won't blame me, right?"
Ning Yuan's face turned pale and he forced a smile: "Of course not."
Over there, the director has already made the decision and called out the start.
"action——"
"Snap—" A fierce whip hit Ning Yuan, almost breaking her teeth.
