Xu Zhaozhao tapped his shoulder, retorted, and then walked aside so as not to get in the way of the scenery.
Gu Qingyan was slightly taken aback, then a faint smile appeared on his face.
I never thought he would be called a scumbag by Xu Zhaozhao.
It's all Chen Heng's fault.
Thinking about it, he turned around and went to find Xu Zhaozhao.
Xu Zhaozhao was looking at the script for the next scene when Gu Qingyan insisted on sticking to her and looking at it with her.
The reason is that this scene is between him and Ming Shu, and he can take the opportunity to practice his lines.
She disagreed, but Gu Qingyan persisted, saying, "Sure enough, once a woman gets something, she stops loving it..."
"Your boyfriend can't even act with you anymore..."
With his makeup today... Xu Zhaozhao really hated her own face-obsessed brain.
Xu Zhaozhao couldn't persuade him otherwise; anyway, the crew members were used to their behavior.
As long as they're happy, that's all that matters. We staff are all deaf and blind.
As soon as she agreed, Gu Qingyan shamelessly put his hand on her waist and said with a straight face, "It's just a rehearsal."
What's so great about a hug?!
Xu Zhaozhao rolled her eyes, ignored him, and buried herself in the script.
The sound of filming nearby would occasionally reach her ears, accompanied by Director Dai's several "cuts".
Ming Shu was furious after she caught Ming Lan and Chen Heng interacting.
We've started working on Minglan.
What she was thinking was that Minglan's current situation was given to her by her, and she could take it all back.
Everyone at Mingyue Tower wanted to curry favor with Ming Shu, and after hearing that he was going to mess with Ming Lan, they all tried to trip her up, whether intentionally or unintentionally.
The most obvious thing is that Minglan's performance opportunities for the next month have all been canceled.
The best way to get rid of her is to make her disappear from the public eye.
So now, in the filming, Minglan is shown facing these people's targeting, remaining calm and cleverly resolving the crisis.
When she was notified that all performances were suspended, she did not lose heart, but actively sought solutions and always remained glamorous.
Xu Zhaozhao raised her head slightly and glanced at the filming location. She had just captured the scene: a minor extra splashed a cup of red ink on Minglan's face.
She didn't look embarrassed at all; on the contrary, she was still smiling.
Xu Zhaozhao stopped looking and lowered her head again to look at the script in her hand.
Until the moment before filming began, Xu Zhaozhao hadn't had a scene with Gu Qingyan—she had fallen asleep in his arms.
She was woken up by Gu Qingyan just an hour ago because he had a scene to film and couldn't stay with her.
"Baby, wake up."
Xu Zhaozhao suddenly opened her eyes as if she had risen from the dead. When she sat up, a few strands of her hair floated up as they brushed against the fabric.
She actually fell asleep on set?!
This matter is something that Xu Zhaozhao finds utterly incomprehensible, whether in her past life or this one.
"Take this, a couple of sips will keep you awake."
A bottle of ice-cold soda was shoved into her hand, instantly chasing away Xu Zhaozhao's drowsiness.
"wait for me."
After Gu Qingyan finished speaking, he got up and walked towards the filming location.
Xu Zhaozhao stared blankly at his retreating figure, her hand unconsciously clenching the frozen can of soda in her hand.
Has Gu Qingyan given her such a sense of security?
But before Xu Zhaozhao could think, her slightly swaying hair immediately caught the stylist's attention.
He rushed over to help her with her hair, interrupting Xu Zhaozhao's thoughts, wanting to make sure she looked beautiful every minute of every day.
Xu Zhaozhao chatted and laughed with the stylist, opened the soda Gu Qingyan had given her, put in a straw, and took small sips.
Drinking something cold does indeed refresh you.
Her gaze occasionally followed Gu Qingyan not far away—she had to admit, this guy's charm was truly irresistible when he was acting.
Xu Zhaozhao even remembered that he touched Minglan's arm.
Xu Zhaozhao's first reaction wasn't jealousy, but rather... how long would Gu Qingyan, a person with OCD, take to wash his hands?
Xu Zhaozhao was right. As soon as the director yelled "cut," Gu Qingyan went straight to the restroom.
He didn't come out of the bathroom until the next scene was being filmed, his hands slightly pale.
Xu Zhaozhao glanced at it; if he stayed any longer, his hands would get all wrinkled from being soaked in the water.
The scene he just filmed with Minglan was the turning point of the entire movie.
Ming Shu wants to blacklist Ming Lan and prevent her from performing.
But it was too late. Minglan's fame had soared, and the audience was still excited about her, clamoring to see her every day.
Newspaper headlines were full of speculation about Minglan's sudden disappearance, and people started causing trouble at Mingyue Tower, which soon reached Chen Heng's ears.
This is where the show begins.
Xu Zhaozhao didn't even have a chance to say a word to Gu Qingyan before the assistant director took her in front of the camera.
She and Gu Qingyan were assigned to different camera positions.
I didn't care about anything else and quickly went through the lines and emotions to get into character.
"start!"
At the director's command.
Ming Shu stood in the Chen family's flower-viewing room, still wearing the same cheongsam and carrying a delicate little bag.
Compared to her, all the flowers in the back garden seemed to pale in comparison.
"Ming Shu!!"
The person wasn't in the frame, but Chen Heng's angry shouts came through first.
With a cold face and a newspaper in his hand, he strode angrily to Ming Shu's side and stopped.
He handed the crumpled newspaper to Ming Shu.
Why was Minglan, the beauty of Mingyue Tower, blacklisted?
The headline caught her eye, but Ming Shu simply stared at it indifferently.
He looked away: "You handed over Mingyue Tower to me and kicked out a mere courtesan. Don't I have that right?"
"The problem is that the audience isn't buying it! They're all causing trouble at Mingyue Tower!"
Chen Heng's eyes were bloodshot as he pointed at the glaring face on the newspaper, "Ming Shu! Just let her sing two songs. If the customers are satisfied, you'll make money too."
Ming Shu turned her head, her eyes meeting his, her face tense. "What if I don't agree?"
"Just a little songstress!"
Chen Heng had clearly lost his patience and threw the newspaper at Ming Shu, shouting, "Ming Shu, what are you so stubborn about?!"
Ming Shu turned her head away, tears welling in her eyes, "Are you satisfied too?"
Chen Heng was unaware that Ming Shu had discovered his relationship with Ming Lan, and he simply went along with her words.
"I'm satisfied, of course I'm satisfied."
His gaze was intense.
Ming Shu raised her eyes and looked out the window with a blurry gaze, her leather bag crumpled in her hand.
The moment I turned my head, tears welled up in my eyes uncontrollably.
Ming Shu's tears are beautiful.
It is something to be proud of.
"good."
Her voice remained calm.
Immersed in joy, Chen Heng did not notice that something was wrong with her.
"That's wonderful, Ming Shu! I knew you were the most sensible one!"
Chen Heng hugged her from behind and kissed the top of her head.
Ming Shu shed tears calmly and desperately, like a beautiful doll that had lost its life.
In the camera's view, there's a cold smile, a calm sob, and hands that are contradictorily entangled together.
The flowers in the back garden are still swaying in the wind.
The image freezes at that moment.
"Card!"
Director Dai looked at the camera, tears welling in his eyes, and spoke without regard for the occasion, "You acted so damn well, pass, pass."
Many staff members who heard this laughed.
Only Xu Zhaozhao cried even more freely after the director yelled "cut".
Ming Shu was crying just now, and now Xu Zhaozhao is crying.
"Don't cry, baby."
All Gu Qingyan could see now was her unstoppable tears. He lowered his head and touched the corner of her eye with his lips.
"If you cry again, I won't be able to resist kissing you..."
