Chapter 766: Crossfire
Xia Qinghan’s expression looked a bit embarra.s.sed after being lectured by s.h.i.+ Huan.
She didn’t expect that she would be the first one to be lectured!
Moreover, it was in front of Xia Xibei!
She took a deep breath, “Sorry, let’s do it again.”
Xia Xibei smiled and looked at her, making her even more embarra.s.sed.
“Action!”
“Ah Cheng, is she your girlfriend?”
“No!”
Chu Tong’s eyes changed slightly, and she couldn’t help but bite her lips, her eyes were on the verge of tears.
“Cut! No!” s.h.i.+ Huan started to scold her again, “Chu Tong just has a crush on Shangguan Cheng right now. Even if he denied the relations.h.i.+p, she wouldn’t cry! Understand?!”
He had already talked about it to her, so how come Xia Qinghan still couldn’t grasp it?
“Forget it, just stop for now. Make sure you get this right!”
Being told so by the director, Xia Qinghan’s face turned red with shame.
She was actually being disliked!
s.h.i.+ Huan had no time to waste with her.
The rent of this villa was not low, and they had only rented it for two days, so of course they had to hurry up and finish the shoot!
“Let’s shoot the next scene! Yu Qianjiang, Zhong Lirong, and Shangguan Cheng, get ready!”
At his order, several people took their positions.
When Yu Qianjiang came back, Shangguan Cheng followed her with mixed feelings.
As a mother, Zhong Lirong’s att.i.tude toward Yu Qianjiang was complicated.
She knew that her son had liked Yu Qianjiang before, but Yu Qianjiang had actually rejected her son! How could this be?!
So, Zhong Lirong’s att.i.tude towards Yu Qianjiang was very complex. She liked the girl, but she had to have a little resentment, anger, and a bit of displeasure toward her too.
Such complex emotions were not really that well expressed.
However, Bai Meixue’s acting skills were good, so s.h.i.+ Huan was not worried about her performance.
“Action!”
“Qianjiang, when did you come back?” Zhong Lirong pulled Yu Qianjiang’s hand, smiling. “Why didn’t you come over earlier?”
“Aunt Rong, I just got back.”
Yu Qianjiang’s face had an extra smile. “See, it happens to be Ah Cheng’s birthday, so I came over.”
“You’re so thoughtful.” Zhong Lirong had a warm expression. “Do you have a boyfriend now?”
“No.” Yu Qianjiang shook her head. “I haven’t found the right one.”
“The boys around you are quite good!” Zhong Lirong’s expression was complicated. “You are at the age where you should consider matters of marriage.”
“I’m not in a hurry.” Yu Qianjiang shook her head and smiled slightly, “Besides, I don’t like men who are weaker than me.”
These words made both Zhong Lirong and Shangguan Cheng’s faces look unpleasant, as this statement included Shangguan Cheng as well.
Zhong Lirong’s face seemed to say, “This is for your own good.”
“Oh, girls don’t need to be so strong. They need someone to take care of them-”
“No, I’m not interested.” Yu Qianjiang drew back her hand, politely smiled, and interrupted her words. “I can do everything myself.”
“That’s not how it is… If your dad knew…”
“My dad would have supported me too.” Yu Qianjiang’s expression was slightly cold and her eyes were free of warmth. “You don’t have to worry.”
“Cut! Good!”
s.h.i.+ Huan shouted for them to stop and nodded in satisfaction. “Good job!”
“Xibei, I didn’t expect you to perform so well too!” Bai Meixue’s smile was as kind as that of a benevolent elder.
“It’s all because of everyone’s help and support that I’ve made such progress.” Xia Xibei smiled modestly. “I’ll go and fix my makeup.”
s.h.i.+ Shuhang, who had been acting as a background, also said, “I’ll go too!”
“Okay, you guys go.”
When Xia Xibei left, Bai Meixue’s smile disappeared and she became alert.
