That day, after returning to the hotel from the film set and taking a shower, Bi Xie saw dozens of missed calls on her phone. Some were from Xiao Jingyi, while others were from Su Yan and Yun Qi. When Ji Gui was drying her hair, she casually told her why Xiao Jingyi had called her.
It was actually a very small thing—I asked her to lend me my game account for "Flying Immortal Peach Blossom Spring".
Yun Qi called about this matter. She needed to use a female player's account in the later stages of her endorsement of "Flying Immortal Peach Blossom Spring". After thinking it over, she decided that the account "Qingfeng Fuyun Liu" was more well-known. As a good friend, Yun Qi naturally did her best to promote her.
If the company adopts and uses the account "Qingfeng Fuyun Liu", Anxie will also receive a reward.
Xiao Jingyi originally intended to suppress the matter, but someone created a forum, and the game account "Qingfeng Fuyun Liu" received a significant lead in the forum's poll. Public opinion was paramount, and Xiao Jingyi was bothered by it for several days. Finally, he decided to call An Xie.
He had a pretty good plan: to give An Xie a reward in a condescending tone, and he even had his lines ready: "You play a beggar in the play, I'm just giving him a handout..."
When Bi Xie heard Xiao Jing mention this, he wished he could gouge out both of Xiao Jing's eyes!
Wow, that's pretty high-class! She plays a beggar, and he plays a cripple who can't take care of himself!
As for the matter of "real and fake props", Bi Xie also figured it out.
She wronged Xiao Jingyi about this. Although Xiao Jingyi did indeed instruct people to make things difficult for her during this period, such as asking extras to hit her harder and deliberately having her arrive at the set early, she ended up waiting for half a day under the scorching sun and only receiving an expired boxed lunch...
This man was a bit mean, but for some reason, he didn't intend to kill her.
Xiao Jingyi was also kept in the dark about the "real and fake props" incident. His intervention that day was purely accidental. He might even have been happy to see her get stabbed a few times and then lie in the hospital bed groaning as he made a few sarcastic remarks.
"Ha, what a dog of a man," Bi Xie took a sip of soy milk and squinted at the hazy distant sky.
Today we're filming the scene where "Hong Ou" escapes into the He mansion and has her first encounter with "He Shifang".
The night scene in the deep mountains has been reshot, and she has confirmed once again that those machetes were real. Why? Because all the extras ran away the next day. What else could it be but a guilty conscience?
As for those who want to harm her, there are only a few of them.
After slurping a few more mouthfuls, the cup of soy milk was empty, and the model citizen threw it into the trash can.
Ru Hua clicked her tongue and said, "Lord Ji Gui is indeed Lord Ji Gui. As soon as he arrived, all five little devils ran away in fright. Aren't you going to call them back?"
Bi Xie smiled meaningfully: "How did you know the person who came was Ji Gui?"
Ru Hua was taken aback and asked, "Who else could it be but Lord Ji Gui?" Then she added gleefully, "But the blissful moments are always so short-lived. The villain's main personality is back, sob sob. Host, be careful of your personal safety!"
Bi Xie's brow twitched: "Who said we were making pancakes?"
"It's absolutely outrageous. Even if Lord Ji Gui can endure it, can you?"
"...Holy crap! Ru Hua, do you have some kind of misunderstanding about me?"
"Waaah, no, I saw it with my own eyes! You and the big boss were so passionate when you were making love, rolling around in the blankets, frolicking in the bed! You're my darling~"
"...Damn it, didn't you say you weren't eavesdropping or peeping? Didn't you always turn your phone off? Didn't you say you were a pure baby? I think you're more like a yellowed steamed bun!"
"Anxie, good morning!" A girl with two buns in her hair greeted Bixie from afar, and paused for a moment when she saw Bixie's gritted teeth expression.
"Good morning, Xia Mian," Bi Xie greeted with a smile, automatically ignoring the bug that was Ru Hua.
"Brother Huang just asked if you were here yet. He told you to go straight to the dressing room. Your costume has been restored to how it was last time. Brother Huang wants you to go check it out. Also, Actor Xiao is here too, in his personal dressing room—"
Xia Mian spoke the last sentence in a very low voice, and looked around.
Bi Xie said "Oh" and thanked her, then handed the shumai and glutinous rice chicken he had bought but hadn't eaten yet to Xia Mian, and said with a smile, "A young lady like you should eat some breakfast, so you don't ruin your stomach."
Xia Mian awkwardly took the breakfast, saying she didn't want it, but Bi Xie pushed it back.
When she turned around, Bi Xie was already far away. She heard someone next to her staring at her and sneer, "Tch, look at that fawning face, she really knows how to flatter. Just because An Xie is Xiao Yingdi's girlfriend, she thinks she can climb up to An Xie's high branch. Doesn't she know she'll end up with nothing?"
"Exactly, I don't believe that Actor Xiao and An Xie are a couple. Actor Xiao has been in the industry for so long, when have I ever heard of him having any scandals? It's even more impossible for him to date an unknown nobody."
She even takes other people's leftover breakfast. Tsk, how stingy!
Hearing these unbearable comments, Xia Mian tightened her grip on her breakfast, then turned and left without a word.
Not long after Bi Xie entered the locker room, the script supervisor, Brother Huang, rushed over. His attitude towards Bi Xie had improved considerably, partly due to Xiao Jingyi's influence.
The crew members were opportunistic; even if they disliked Bi Xie, they were still polite to him on the surface.
The costume was covered in mud again. In order to match the previous scenes, the same costume was still used. In the hot weather, the food would spoil the next day, let alone the costume.
However, in order to highlight the wretchedness and misery of "Hong Ou" after revealing her fox face and being hated by everyone, the dirtier and more tattered her costumes were, the more the audience would sympathize with the character of "Hong Ou".
"Anxie, look at this costume... can you wear it?" Brother Huang carefully observed Bixie's expression.
If An Xie insists on not wearing this costume, given her current relationship with Actor Xiao, he will have no choice but to ask Director Zhang for permission. However, Director Zhang dislikes actors who can't endure hardship and hates pretentious actors the most.
“It’s wearable,” Bi Xie said, picking up the costume. Although the smell made her frown, she had already filmed so many scenes where she was beaten up these past few days, so wearing dirty clothes was no big deal.
Hearing this, Brother Huang's expression brightened. "Alright, Actor Xiao is here. You can change your clothes and do your makeup first. The set outside is almost ready."
Today's shoot was for scenes filmed in the early hours of the morning, and it's almost 7 o'clock now. When Bi Xie arrived, he saw the crew members busy adjusting camera positions or moving props, so time was naturally a bit tight.
Brother Huang hurriedly went out to arrange things again.
The makeup artist who did Bi Xie's styling and makeup was a young woman. Almost every time she did Bi Xie's makeup, she would say things like, "Your skin is so good," "Your hair is so healthy," and "Your lips are a dark color, you don't need to wear lipstick."
At first, Bi Xie would reply with "It's alright, it's alright," but later he realized that this makeup artist, despite her young age, had the potential to be an old monk chanting sutras, so he decisively closed his eyes to rest.
While I was putting on makeup, a commotion suddenly broke out outside the curtain; it seemed like a lot of people were talking about something.
