Han Lan had said this several times before, from initial surprise to a slight resentment in her heart.
So what if they have connections? We just keep to ourselves and don't interfere with each other.
Bai Qingzhi felt as if she was being followed by subtle gazes wherever she went, which puzzled her.
She has already filmed part of her scenes, and the director personally explains the personality and psychology of the third female lead to her every day, which makes her more and more immersed in the role.
Gradually, Bai Qingzhi got into the zone, and the footage she shot was much more natural than at the beginning.
Even the most critical director thought she was a natural-born actress.
But in the eyes of others, this has evolved into an identity that even directors have to be careful about.
The weather has gotten colder now, and filming is all done outdoors. Bai Qingzhi had just finished her first scene, ran downstairs, picked up a hand warmer, and sat happily on a chair.
She was wearing a custom-made coat, which was very warm. Bai Qingzhi nestled into it, and with the warmth of the hand warmers, she felt a little sleepy.
The Bai family arranged a young assistant for her. The assistant worked at her father's company and was quite young, but she was exceptionally attentive.
Seeing that Bai Qingzhi's eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, the assistant went over to wake her up and ask her to go back to her room to sleep so she wouldn't catch a cold.
But before the assistant could speak, several people approached from a distance, the one in the lead being the one who often followed Han Lan.
"Bai Zhi, we're going out tonight, do you want to come?" Today is the day one of the women in their group finished filming, and after a few words, they decided to go out and relax.
Inviting Bai Qingzhi was merely a polite formality.
Bai Qingzhi opened her eyes groggily. She didn't recognize the people in front of her, so she smiled and declined.
Although the answer was expected, the women still felt somewhat uncomfortable.
Finally, one woman couldn't help but mutter under her breath:
"She's just a socialite, what's with all the swagger!"
Bai Qingzhi didn't hear it clearly, but her assistant next to her heard it perfectly.
Don't let the assistant's short stature fool you; he exudes confidence and his presence instantly becomes imposing upon hearing these words.
She stood with her hands on her hips, slightly raising her chin, and questioned:
"What are you saying? Don't you know how to respect people? You can't expect anything nice to come out of a dog's mouth."
She didn't lower her voice at all, showing no concern for whether it would embarrass those women.
The woman in the lead was taken aback. Remembering Han Lan's words, she grabbed the person who had just spoken and pulled him out while apologizing to Bai Qingzhi.
By this time, Bai Qingzhi had fully regained her senses, and she finally understood why these people had been looking at her that way for so many days.
Bai Qingzhi moved the hand warmer to a different position and asked in a calm tone who had said that.
The women naturally wouldn't admit it, and after hastily apologizing again, they promptly ran away.
The assistant glared at their retreating backs, then turned around and said:
"Qingzhi, should we teach them a lesson?"
She had been smiling at everyone for the past few days, but every time she helped Qingzhi get something, those people would always make excuses.
It's as if getting involved with them is like contracting some kind of infectious disease.
At this moment, the assistant suddenly realized that the problem lay in their relationship; some bastard had actually framed Qingzhi as a social butterfly.
"They can't shut their mouths, but since they dare to say it to my face, I have to react, right?" He then stretched out a big yawn.
A smile played on his lips.
However, that smile appeared somewhat sinister to the assistant.
Bai Qingzhi wasn't stupid; she could naturally guess who had spread the rumor.
A love rival is truly terrifying.
The methods were just a bit crude.
That evening, a luxury car slowly drove into the filming location, and Bai Qingzhi walked up to it in front of everyone.
Before the day's filming was even finished, the director moved her scenes to the next day, a move that sparked a lot of discussion.
Only Han Lan gritted her teeth when she saw the faint figures in the car. The countless people who appeared in her dreams were taking other women away right in front of her.
Some even went around asking the director who was in the car, only to be scolded by the director.
Meanwhile, Bai Qingzhi was comfortably leaning back in her car seat, her shoulders a little sore from the intense filming these past few days.
Xiao Yuan reached out and was intently massaging her, saying with some concern as he did so:
"If we're too tired, let's not film anymore."
He initially just let Zhizhi play around, but he didn't expect her to work so hard.
If he had known this would happen, he would never have agreed to let her go.
Bai Qingzhi knew that Xiao Yuan felt sorry for her, so she grabbed his hand and rubbed her head against his palm.
"No, I like it very much."
This is already her second hobby.
After resting for a while and feeling that her shoulder was no longer uncomfortable, Bai Qingzhi regained her energy, her eyes lit up, and she took Xiao Yuan's hand to tell him about the interesting things that happened on set.
After much discussion, the topic eventually turned to Han Lan.
Xiao Yuan was enjoying the conversation when he noticed a change in Bai Qingzhi's emotions and instinctively felt something was wrong.
Xiao Yuan hurriedly said that he would give Han Lan a test in two days.
But before he could say another word, the voice of his assistant in the front row suddenly came through.
"Don't worry, Miss Bai. Miss Han won't be staying on set for many more days. The boss has decided to let her finish filming early."
Xiao Yuan looked over, then frowned.
He clearly didn't decide on this...
The assistant, on the other hand, was furious at her lack of ambition. If the boss had dared to say today that Han Lan would pass the assessment and continue to stay, Miss Bai would definitely have felt uncomfortable, even if she didn't say it.
A woman's jealousy can be quite terrifying.
Although Xiao Yuan didn't understand the assistant's intention, he was glad he didn't directly refute it.
Bai Qingzhi was stunned when she heard this. The second female lead's scenes had just begun, how could filming have ended?
"Actually, that's not what I meant..." Bai Qingzhi was just a little jealous.
"Honey, what do you want to eat later?" Xiao Yuan pulled her close and changed the subject.
Sure enough, as soon as Bai Qingzhi heard about food, she immediately forgot about what had just happened and excitedly began to talk about the place Yang Wei had told her about.
It was already evening when they had eaten and drunk their fill. Seeing that she had eaten quite a lot, Xiao Yuan took her hand and strolled down the street.
The driver followed slowly behind.
It's just the beginning of the nightlife, a vibrant scene of lights and bustling activity.
As she approached the entrance of a bar, Bai Qingzhi peered inside with curiosity.
"Do you want to go in and take a look?" Looking into the child's bright eyes, Xiao Yuan couldn't say anything else.
Upon hearing Xiao Yuan's agreement, Bai Qingzhi smiled and nodded.
This is just a regular bar; the decor isn't luxurious, and there aren't any chaotic scenes of people headbanging and dancing inside.
I found a seat and ordered a few drinks from the waiter.
Bai Qingzhi opened her big, curious eyes and looked around at everything, then suddenly saw a familiar figure in a dim corner.
