The revelation of this incident did not affect Yao Anna's mood, so it naturally did not have any impact on her performance during the subsequent filming.
Yin Jiaqi's original plan to use public opinion to cause Yao Anna to lose her temper completely failed.
Instead of embarrassing Yao Anna in the following shoot, it caused her to lose her composure and make mistakes throughout the second day of filming, resulting in another full day of retakes.
On the first day, it could be explained as needing time to adjust, but now, after several days, he's still out of sorts and making mistakes every time. Who can stand that?!
The director was so angry that his blood pressure spiked, and without saying a word, he demanded that the actor be replaced!
This really scared Yin Jiaqi. She hurriedly came over to apologize to the director, but it was clear that the director was not the kind of person who would easily bow to capital. The more pressure was applied, the more stubborn he became. No matter what they said, he insisted on one demand—to replace the actor!
The director's side was embroiled in a fierce dispute over whether to replace the actor, but the filming of the production crew was not affected much.
Anyway, the scenes related to that character can be reshot later, but other schedules still need to be expedited.
Song Mengmeng's performance was quite remarkable among the new actors in the entire cast. To be honest, her screen time wasn't much, but she had quite a few scenes with the male and female leads.
However, the young girl's observations on set these past few days were not in vain. She quickly grasped the knack of filming, and although she is not from a professional acting background, she has made rapid progress.
Just when she was about to finish filming all her scenes, Hu Yue suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
Hu Yue was in a great hurry to find her, and she didn't even have time to wait for her to remove her makeup, change her clothes, and go back to the hotel. She came straight to the film set.
"What's wrong?" Song Mengmeng had just finished filming her last scene and was about to remove her makeup when Hu Yue grabbed her. She was a little confused and gestured to Yao Anna, who was worried and wanted to stop her, that everything was alright. Then she looked at Hu Yue and said, "Wait for me to change my clothes first."
"It's too late!" Hu Yue shook her head and hurriedly pulled her out: "There's something that, if we delay any longer, could cause a huge mess. Let's talk as we walk."
"Did you discover some evil spirit that you can't deal with?" Seeing Hu Yue's anxiety, Song Mengmeng didn't ask any further questions. She knew Hu Yue's personality well; anything that could make her panic like this must be something serious.
"Our China also has monsters! But there are distinctions between monsters, ghosts, spirits, and even demons; some are evil spirits, but others can follow the rules of the human world and live here without making any mistakes. So our special task force has records of the existence of these monsters."
There's no need to exterminate them since everyone is at peace!
But recently, many of these monsters have inexplicably lost their continuity.
As Hu Yue drove, she explained to Song Mengmeng, who was sitting in the passenger seat next to her, why she had come to see her so urgently: "At first, our special task force didn't pay much attention to this matter!"
After all, some monsters sometimes leave the human world and return to their own tribes' habitats.
However, as these instances of losing contact became more and more frequent, we began to feel that something was wrong! Just as we were about to start investigating the matter, a little fox came to us on its own initiative.
As you know, I do have some fox blood in me.
She was my great-great-grandmother, and was said to be a fox spirit. Back then, the attitude of the human world towards humans and spirits being together was one of rejection and rejection! My ancestor suffered a lot because of this.
Okay, let's not talk about that anymore! Let's get back to business!
Because of our family's bloodline, we have always maintained contact with the fox clan. So whenever there's anything, the fox clan members will proactively come to me for help.
The little fox who came this time was a fox spirit, Hu Jingjing's younger sister. She came to me crying and begged me to save her sister, saying her sister had been kidnapped by evil people!
"Then she said, who kidnapped her sister?!"
After listening to Hu Yue's story, Song Mengmeng's expression also became serious.
Although, according to Hu Yue, these monsters have adapted to the rules of the human world and live among humans, they are ultimately not human!
No matter how well a demon disguises itself, its strength still exists!
Who could kidnap so many monsters without leaving a trace...?
This is not a normal thing in itself!
“No, she said that the person appeared very suddenly, with a pair of dark wings like a crow, and the whirlwind he created could trap people. Her sister was swept away while trying to save her.” Hu Yue increased the speed of the car and handed a file bag that was stuck to the side to Song Mengmeng: “This contains the results of our investigation over the past period. You can take a look first.”
"If you put it that way, I think I roughly know who kidnapped them." Song Mengmeng didn't open the file folder; based solely on Hu Yue's explanation, she had already guessed who was behind it all: "Da Tengu!"
"A monster from the Land of Cherry Blossoms?" Hu Yue's grip on the steering wheel tightened, and she glanced back at Song Mengmeng in disbelief. "Are you sure about this?!"
"A few days ago, I received an invitation. It was personally handed to me by Shuten-dōji from the Sakura Kingdom. He has an accomplice by his side, and the image of the Ōtengu perfectly matches the little fox's description!"
Moreover, I can roughly guess what their purpose is in capturing these monsters.” Song Mengmeng didn’t hide anything, briefly repeating to Hu Yue her previous speculation with the Yama Emperor about the Heavenly Cloud Sword, before saying, “They want to use this thing as a sacrifice to resurrect the demon god from the former Sakura Kingdom—Yamata no Orochi.”
"If what you're saying is true, then this is going too far!" Hu Yue gritted her teeth. In fact, the Chinese people have always been very restrained and polite in this underworld.
The local monsters are always asked to stay away from China and cause trouble, but those messy monsters outside think that China is easy to bully and are always thinking about causing trouble here!
"Where are you planning to take me?" Song Mengmeng glanced out the car window. It was obvious they were about to get on the highway. Could it be that Hu Yue was planning to take her on a long trip?!
She protested somewhat discontentedly, "I have scenes to film tomorrow, you can't take me too far!"
