CHAPTER 62: CHAPTER 62: FINISHING THE FILMING

"She hit me, what for?" Zhou Lifen argued with Director Li.

Director Li looked at her and asked, "It’s necessary for the plot."

"But that wasn’t the original plot." Zhou Lifen was a bit annoyed.

"This was decided by the scriptwriter and the original author together, Miss Zhou. If others can accept the slap scene, why can’t you?" Director Li was a bit angry.

Zhou Lifen knew there was no use arguing, thought about it, and realized she had a stand-in, so why worry.

But soon, she discovered that her stand-in had taken a leave today and would be away for a week, completely uncontactable.

With no other choice, she went to Director Li to request a postponement of the shoot.

Director Li refused, "Has the fame made you forget the basic conduct of an actor? Every day’s delay is a loss for the crew and everyone!"

Zhou Lifen was speechless and could only accept it.

The plot progressed to where Song Ziran overdosed on opium and died.

Shen Qiuci, just after giving birth, held Song Ziran and cried bitterly.

Yu Suwei came to visit, and Shen Qiuci rushed over to slap her, accusing her of causing Song Ziran’s death.

Mu Yan did not expect such a good opportunity to fall into her lap, looked at Zhou Lifen, and laughed, "Don’t worry, Sister Zhou, I definitely won’t hit you hard."

Zhou Lifen couldn’t help but roll her eyes, who would believe that.

Perhaps too afraid of Mu Yan’s retaliation, Zhou Lifen had several NGs.

Each time, she evaded even before Mu Yan’s hand touched her face.

She glared at Mu Yan, "Can you even hit properly?"

Director Li was a bit irritated, "It’s you who’s making mistakes, stop the nonsense."

He had lost patience with such a prima donna.

The more she was praised, the more arrogant she became.

With a "smack," Shen Qiuci delivered a slap to Yu Suwei’s face, "It’s all your fault Zhiran died, get out, don’t show up in front of Zhiran."

Yu Suwei said nothing, looking at Song Ziran, her expression sad.

"Cut, that’s a wrap, prepare for the next scene," Director Li called out.

He was quite annoyed; such a big actress having so many NGs, isn’t that embarrassing?

Mu Yan looked at Zhou Lifen and laughed, "Sister Zhou, see, I wasn’t lying, I hit very lightly."

She really hadn’t hit hard just now, plus Zhou Lifen’s cooperation, so it was indeed a light hit.

As a professional actor, she wouldn’t purposely make things difficult for Zhou Lifen at this moment.

However, Zhou Lifen NG’ing so many times herself should have been more uncomfortable than being given a hard slap.

Zhou Lifen glared at her, "I don’t know who you’ve gotten involved with, you’ll see, you’ll be blacklisted!"

Mu Yan said nothing, turned, and left; she needed to get ready for the final scenes and aimed to wrap up today.

The crew of "Dragon Soaring" was urging them.

They filmed the final scene in the afternoon, where Shen Qiuci hanged herself in Song Ziran’s room.

Director Li looked at Mu Yan and smiled, "Congratulations on finishing filming."

"Thank you, Director," Mu Yan replied with a smile.

"Hope to collaborate again."

"Mhm."

Mu Yan noticed the unfriendly looks from Zhou Lifen and Wu Shi Yi, smiled slightly, "Thank you, Sister Zhou and Sister Wu, I’ll be leaving now."

Wu Shi Yi laughed, "No need to be so polite. Since you’re done shooting today, shouldn’t you treat the crew to dinner?"

Zhou Lifen smiled, "No need, Mu Yan’s not in a good position financially."

"We don’t care about what we’re eating, we’re just worried she doesn’t have the heart for it," Wu Shi Yi sneered.

Mu Yan didn’t understand why they were playing off each other and responded, "I have to join a crew tomorrow, so I don’t have the time today, sorry, I’ll be going."

With that, she walked away with Luo Yao.

Zhou Lifen watched her back, frowning slightly, joining a crew?

Could there really be a crew that wants her? Impossible.

"She says joining a crew, probably just a background actor," Wu Shi Yi said with a sneer.

Zhou Lifen thought about it and felt that must be it.
