Chapter 16 The Vase Being ‘Keeped’ (15)



Today is the first day of filming for "Step by Step". There is only one scene with Lan Susheng, so Qiao Yu did not show up right after filming started.

When I arrived, the entire crew had coffee and milk tea, but because we were filming, I didn't shout for anyone to come and get it.

"Mai Lijie, here are the ones exclusively for your artist."

Qi Shan and Yu Mailijie are agents of the same level, and he couldn't understand why Qi Shan would become the agent of an unknown young actress.

Moreover, the company's top management seemed to be trying to support Lin Yu.

"Who is your artist? This salary isn't even enough for him to spend."

Mai Lijie took Brother Bai's exclusive hand-ground coffee without sugar or milk. This shop is not cheap, and the coffee beans are of high quality.

That's why I couldn't help but say something funny, but Qi Shan immediately gave me a glare:

"Don't try to catch a rat with a dog."

The two of them had never been on good terms before, and after spending time with Qiao Yu these days, he was unhappy with Ji Xianbai and even more dissatisfied with Mai Lijie.

Seeing that he was not amused, Mai Lijie spread his hands indifferently. I wonder if it was because he trusted Qi Shan that he did not object to Lin Yu and Ji Xianbai being "friends".

After all, the girl is quite sensible and didn't do anything out of line.

Lu Jinshu, who was supervising the filming, glanced at Qiao Yu inadvertently, then looked at the two people who were talking. Did he remember correctly that they were the agent of the Wildcat family?

But he immediately looked away:

"Ka, Lin Xuxu, you should be more restrained in your emotions and not be so outspoken."

This was the twelfth time that Lin Xuxu had been stopped in the first scene. Lu Jinshu's impatient tone made Lin Xuxu even more nervous and embarrassed.

After all, this was her first real filming experience after graduation. Even if she had good talent, she could not avoid Lu Jinshu's picky eyes.

While Ji Xianbai was touching up his makeup with the costume and makeup team, he saw Lin Xuxu's pale face and whispered to her in comfort:

"Relax a little."

But this did not make Lin Xuxu relax, but made her even more nervous. After all, she was wasting everyone's time.

"Thank you, senior. I'm sorry to trouble you."

Lin Xuxu forced a smile that was uglier than crying. Ji Xianbai always felt that Lin Xuxu was a bit like Xiao Yu when he first met her.

After much stumbling and struggling, I finally finished filming her scenes. Fortunately, my own scenes were not important at the beginning.

Lin Xuxu came to the lounge tiredly to remove her makeup and happened to see Qiao Yu putting on makeup.

So beautiful...! She had to admit that even as a woman, she couldn't resist the beauty of the person in front of her, and she...

I don't know if she feels inferior in front of all the seniors, and then she sees that the newcomers are not as good as her...

Receiving Lin Xuxu's envious gaze from the mirror, he greeted her with a smile:

"Hello, my name is Lin Yu, you can call me Xiao Yu. You must be Xu Xu who plays Min Fanghua, you are amazing."

Unexpectedly, the beauty spoke in a very cute way, and the distant and unapproachable feeling she had just had disappeared.

The most important thing was that the undisguised praise made Lin Xuxu feel favorable towards her:

"My...my name is Lin Xuxu, hello Xiaoyu."

I don’t know if it was because she was too nervous, but Lin Xuxu started to stutter a little, and she extended her hand in a very formal way to shake hands and greet.

Seeing that Qiao Yu was unable to free his hand, he immediately withdrew it and smiled awkwardly.

"Excuse me, I'm putting on makeup."

When the makeup artist heard the stagehand calling Qiao Yu's name, she had completed the final steps.

Lin Xuxu looked at Qiao Yu who stood up: What a tall figure... and she is only 1.6 meters tall, she suddenly became a dwarf.

The beauty walked towards him step by step, with no intention of passing by him.

Too close! Lin Xuxu could even see the fine hairs on her face and her almost flawless skin. She even vaguely felt that she could smell her fragrance. Then her hand was pulled up:

"Now I'm making up for it. I have to go film first."

She didn't come to her senses until the door closed. How unfair.

Lin Xuxu touched her face, which was still hot, and her mind was full of the soft touch of her hands. Why did she feel like she had seen Qiao Yu somewhere before?

When filming was about to begin, Zhu Xingwen saw Qiao Yu had changed her makeup and hair and nodded with satisfaction, then walked over with the script:

"Xiao Yu, the director and screenwriter think it would be better if you could sing this part in its original form."

"Oh? Of course I can, but I'm not prepared and I'm afraid it won't be very effective."

In this part, she was originally just lip-syncing on the stage as a background player, but it would not be recorded.

The main scene is about the major coming to ask Qin Qiye (the powerful boss of Bailehui) to seize the opium ship carrying the dock under his jurisdiction. When he is refused, he plans to cause some trouble for Bailehui.

Zhu Xingwen had no idea what his old friend was doing, and was startled by the sudden voice behind him:

"Try it out. If it doesn't work once, try it a hundred times."

Being able to sing the original version means more shots, which is of course the best, but if it doesn't work once, try again a hundred times, and any actor will feel the pressure doubled.

Judging from Lu Jinshu's tone, it seemed that he was not giving the camera again but punishing him.

Seeing my old friend's tone that can freeze people to death, please, wasn't it you who decided this corner in front of me?

After all, she was a newcomer, and Zhu Xingwen was afraid that this delicate and soft girl would scare away his old friend. However, he was not so kind when Lu Jinshu was scolding Lin Xuxu just now.

"It's not as exaggerated as Director Lu said. Xiao Yu, you don't have to be nervous. Just perform as you did on the day of the audition. If it doesn't work out, you can re-record it later."

Zhu Xingwen shuddered as he spoke. Is the temperature dropping?

Little did he know that the comforting pat he gave Qiao Yu on the shoulder and the familiar and intimate call of "Xiao Yu" had already made Lu Jinshu decide that he had better be busy recently.
