Having learned from their previous experience, the two of them were carrying large and small bags.
Chu Yuan felt that he was just there to do hard labor.
"Director Yan, Shi Xi said she can't act. Can't we just find someone else?" Chu Yuan carried a box of oatmeal and a fruit basket, feeling a sense of uncertainty about life.
Director Yan glanced at him and said, "This isn't about changing someone else."
Chu Yuan: "What's the problem?"
"The producer returned 20 million yuan of investment from Kuai Xue Entertainment for Nan Wan's sake." Director Yan asked, "You knew about this, right?"
"Could it be that we're here to ask for those twenty million?" Chu Yuan looked at the things in his hand and said, "This little bit of stuff isn't enough, is it? At least replace the oats with bird's nest."
Director Yan: %…#¥@
"I still have my pride!" Director Yan gritted his teeth and said, "If the producer rejects Shi Xi, he'll offend Kuai Xue Entertainment. We don't need 20 million, we have to get Shi Xi back. We just want to mend our relationship with Kuai Xue Entertainment!"
Chu Yuan roughly understood, "So that's why you asked Shi Xi to go back time and time again?"
Director Yan: "There's another reason."
Chu Yuan: "Hmm?"
Director Yan: "I'm not satisfied with the new actors that the assistant director found."
Chu Yuan: "...Let's go inside quickly, my hands are tired."
With bags and packages galore, the two of them arrived at the Shi family home as if visiting relatives for the New Year.
Sitting in her wheelchair, Shi Xi said helplessly, "Hello Director Yan, hello Senior Chu Yuan."
The two looked at the bandages on Shi Xi's feet and made their comments:
"You're really hurt."
"It's quite symmetrical."
Shi Xi: "How could I lie to you and not go to work using my injury as an excuse?"
What do we do now?
Chu Yuan looked at Director Yan with a questioning gaze.
Director Yan was also surprised to find that Shi Xi had actually injured both of her feet.
This is absolutely outrageous!
"Please have a seat, both of you." Shi Xi saw that the two were carrying so many things and offered them a cup of tea.
Director Yan sat down, his mind racing, trying to think of a solution.
Chu Yuan looked at Shi Xi and asked, "How could you be so careless? You got hurt again?"
"It's just a minor thing, don't worry, it won't hurt," Shi Xi said. "It just means I'll have to sit in a wheelchair for half a month."
Half a month.
Chu Yuan looked at Director Yan: Can you wait?
Director Yan: Wait my ass! Their schedule can't be delayed any longer!
Almost all of the other people's solo scenes have been filmed.
"Shi Xi, Director Yan has been revising the script these past two days." Chu Yuan looked at Shi Xi and suggested, "Or perhaps we could just film your upper body?"
Shi Xi: "Could it be that I've been sitting here the whole time?"
Sitting the whole time?
Director Yan looked at Shi Xi's wheelchair and said, "How about we change the setting?"
Shi Xi asked in confusion, "What setting?"
Director Yan said, "It just so happens that the scene you filmed before was the place where Tang Xi jumped off the cliff."
Shi Xi nodded, then asked, "Are you going to write me out of the story?"
Director Yan laughed and shook his head, "No, no, no, I won't kill you off."
Shi Xi: ?
"After jumping off the cliff, Tang Xi was unable to walk and became disabled, confined to a wheelchair from now on." Director Yan felt his inspiration flowing freely and quickly sought agreement, asking, "What do you think?"
Chu Yuan gave a polite social smile. "I think it's great! In current period dramas, jumping off a cliff never results in death. Now there's a character who becomes disabled after jumping off a cliff, which is really novel! Shi Xi, what do you think?"
The two looked at Shi Xi.
What else could Shi Xi say?
"I... I think I'm alright," Shi Xi paused, then said, "but I'm really unable to walk right now."
