Chapter 32 Leave it to me, ok?
After the milk tea was delivered, it helped to ease the atmosphere of the filming over there.
Director Zeng also took the opportunity of everyone having a drink to let everyone take a break.
The familiar extras gathered in groups of three or four, all sighing that Ning Mingluo was really kind-hearted.
He always prepares milk tea and snacks, and he's never arrogant.
There aren’t many actors these days who can play the leading man and be so easy-going.
Wu Le, who was listening on the side, pursed his lips, his eyes full of disdain.
Who knows what tricks Ning Mingluo used to be able to play the leading male role in Zeng's movie.
Others don’t understand Ning Mingluo, but he knows him too well.
It's obvious that he was just a supporting actor when he followed Li Ke before, but in just a few days he got to play the leading role in such a big production?
Moreover, before he joined the company, Li Ke had already said that he would get resources for him through Ning Mingluo.
As a result, Ning Mingluo has now taken the resources and left.
This guy is clearly a thief, and this should have been his male lead.
Ning Mingluo stole the role that should have belonged to him.
The more I think about it, the angrier I get.
"Xiao Le, why don't you drink?"
Hearing someone calling him, Wu Le quickly adjusted his expression.
"No, I'm trying to lose weight recently and can't drink too much."
"That's right. Xiaole is handsome and his agent is also attentive. If he keeps in shape, he might be able to get some better roles in the future."
To Wu Le, other people's blessings sounded like they were mocking him for being inferior to Ning Mingluo.
But he couldn't show that on the set.
On the way home from get off work, Ning Mingluo remembered something.
"It seems that only part of the salary has been paid. Is it enough to cover the recent expenses?"
Although Sister Chen has always been the one worrying about these things, she is doing all this for herself, so he can't really just ignore it.
"Don't worry, it's enough, and you don't have to pay for these expenses."
"Don't you need me to pay?"
"It's on the company's account. You were cast in Zeng's film, so according to company regulations, you should have received these benefits."
Ning Mingluo nodded, the treatment in Shengshi was really good.
There was one more thing Luo Chen didn't say. Before the filming officially started, Gu Xiucheng had already instructed him to make Ning Mingluo as comfortable as possible on the crew. When it comes to interpersonal relationships, anything that can be solved with money is a small matter.
I was afraid that Ning Mingluo would suffer any injustice.
But Ning Mingluo has been in the circle for so long and has seen all kinds of things.
These things might not necessarily make him feel wronged, but Gu Xiucheng felt that he would be wronged and couldn't help but feel heartbroken.
Luo Chen looked at the two people and had some idea in his mind.
However, Ning Mingluo cannot know these words for the time being, otherwise it will increase her psychological burden.
The filming went on as usual. Today's shooting was on location, a horse riding scene.
In preparation for today's scene, Ning Mingluo took equestrian lessons for a few days, but after all, he had no experience with horseback riding, so he could only try his best to demonstrate the movements.
Director Zeng strives for perfection and naturally does not want to use fake props instead, but he cannot ignore the safety of the actors.
"Mingluo, this horse is the most docile. Just try your best to show your manners." Director Zeng instructed Ning Mingluo, worried that he would be nervous and scared.
Ning Mingluo touched the horse's soft fur and nodded.
"I'm not afraid, he's very docile."
Ning Mingluo jumped on the horse. Fortunately, the character he played was not very good at riding a horse. If the news he received today was not too urgent, he would not be in a hurry to deliver the news on horseback himself.
Ning Mingluo's youthfulness is more in line with the role.
Director Zeng looked at the camera with satisfaction. It was indeed a pleasure to shoot Ning Mingluo every day.
She is good-looking and has excellent acting skills.
Ning Mingluo was originally worried that he wouldn't be able to control the horse well, but after the filming officially started, this worry completely disappeared.
But when this scene was about to end, something unexpected happened.
The pony, which had been controlled calmly by Ning Mingluo, suddenly started running wildly.
Ning Mingluo was so shocked that he couldn't react at all. If he hadn't been holding the reins tightly, he might have been thrown out.
At this moment, there was no time to care about filming. Director Zeng stood up and said, "Hurry up and save him!"
Falling to the ground, whether it's just a fall or being stepped on by a horse, is no small matter.
Luo Chen and Qiao Xing's hearts also began to writhe.
Ning Mingluo was so dizzy that he couldn't see the road in front of him. He was so dizzy that he couldn't even open his eyes.
Just when Ning Mingluo felt that he was destined to get hurt today, he suddenly heard someone calling his name.
"Ning Mingluo."
His calm voice was completely different from usual, now filled with anxiety.
Looking at the person who suddenly appeared beside him, Ning Mingluo almost thought he was hallucinating.
"Hold the reins firmly." Gu Xiucheng couldn't care about anything else at the moment. The most important thing was to save Ning Mingluo.
Just when Ning Mingluo was wondering what Gu Xiucheng was going to do, he vaguely saw Gu Xiucheng loosen the reins of his horse.
When he came back to his senses, Ning Mingluo felt that there was someone behind him.
He didn't even see how Gu Xiucheng came over. This was too dangerous.
Gu Xiucheng took Ning Mingluo's place in the reins and whispered in Ning Mingluo's ear, comforting her, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Gu Xiucheng was an excellent horseman and he quickly controlled the horse. Although the horse was still going very fast, it was not as crazy as before.
The equestrians at the stable finally came over and finally got the horse to stop.
Ning Mingluo was still in shock on the horse.
Gu Xiucheng jumped off his horse and opened his arms towards Ning Mingluo.
"I'll carry you down."
Ning Mingluo didn't know whether it was because she didn't react or for some other reason, but she just let Gu Xiucheng hold her obediently.
The smell of Gu Xiucheng finally brought Ning Mingluo out of her panic.
He grabbed Gu Xiucheng's clothes and sobbed a little.
Gu Xiucheng patted his back gently.
"Don't be afraid, everything is fine now." Gu Xiucheng had no experience in comforting people and could not say anything else. He could only pat Ning Mingluo's back gently.
This side finally stopped and others hurried over.
"How is Mingluo? Is he injured?"
The barrage of concerns made Ning Mingluo feel embarrassed and she had to leave Gu Xiucheng's arms.
It's so embarrassing. I'm such a grown-up, but I still need others to hold me. It's so embarrassing.
But Gu Xiucheng did not let him go.
"You were scared just now, so I held you. It made you feel a little safer."
Ning Mingluo felt the man's strong arms. Although she knew it was wrong, she allowed him to be willful for a while.
"I'm fine. Thank you all for your concern. Mr. Gu saved me. I'm not hurt at all."
Ever since Gu Xiucheng appeared, he felt relieved. He felt that Gu Xiucheng would not let him get hurt.
This is indeed the case.
Although Ning Mingluo was not injured, it does not mean that Gu Xiucheng will let this matter go.
He looked at Director Zeng and said, "What's going on? They can't even guarantee the safety of the actors during filming. It's not like Director Zeng would make such a low-level mistake."
Sweat suddenly broke out on Zeng Shun's forehead.
Mr. Gu is still the same Mr. Gu. A single word or a look from him can make people feel suffocated.
During the previous meal, he could sense that Mr. Gu and Mingluo were quite close, but he didn't think much about it. He thought it might be an elder's request, or someone's help.
But today he really felt that it was Gu Xiucheng himself who cared about Ning Mingluo.
Actually, if you think about it, Gu Xiucheng won't give face to anyone.
When Director Zeng imagined the force of Gu Xiucheng charging forward on horseback just now, he still felt terrified.
"I'll find out why."
How could a docile horse suddenly go crazy? No one would believe that this was a coincidence.
"Check now."
All the staff and people who had come into contact with the horse today came over on their backs.
Ning Mingluo wanted to persuade Gu Xiucheng not to make such a big fuss, but to investigate the cause. It would not be too late to call for help after a conclusion was made.
As if he knew what Ning Mingluo would say, Gu Xiucheng spoke before him.
"You have a good rest and leave the things to me. Okay?" Gu Xiucheng lowered his voice when he said the last word. The oppressive feeling of being a superior made Ning Mingluo subconsciously stop talking.
Gu Xiucheng's gaze swept over everyone present one by one.
Even Director Zeng couldn't withstand such a gaze, let alone others.
After taking a look around, Gu Xiucheng already had a general idea in his mind.
"Tell me what happened?" Director Zeng looked at these people and knew roughly what had happened.
These people look at each other and dare not say a word.
"This is the horse we always watch, and it has the most docile character," said the person in charge of the stable.
Gu Xiucheng raised an eyebrow. "Since it's usually docile, it shows that there's something wrong today. Who's taking care of this horse?"
"I."
An equestrian stepped forward.
Sweat was beading on his forehead.
"I'll give you a minute to think about who has come into contact with this horse today, or if you have done anything yourself."
As soon as Gu Xiucheng finished speaking, the equestrian was so scared that he confessed everything.
"I really didn't do anything. Just before the filming started, someone called me and I walked away for a while. When I came back, nothing had happened."
"Who called you?"
"I don't know him either."
"Why don't you tell the truth? Is this the rule of your horse farm?" Gu Xiucheng looked at the person in charge of the horse farm.
After offending Gu Xiucheng, they really didn't want to run their horse farm anymore.
"Hurry up and tell me what happened. If you dare to implicate me, I will show you how I will deal with you."
The person in charge said the latter sentence in a very low voice.
The equestrian finally confessed with a trembling voice.
"The loan sharks came to me, and I had no choice but to go with them. If I didn't go, they would come after me, and then I would really lose my job."
