Chapter 268 - 268 Slapped in the Face
268 Slapped in the Face
Twenty minutes later, Su Ji and Zhou Xuefang’s part was over.
It was winter now, but the scene was set in the summer, so they were wearing short-sleeved clothes from the set to a coffee shop.
This was a very common sight in the crew.
As soon as the director shouted “cut”, Zhou Xuefang’s entire body shivered. Chen Jing had also come with her today, so she quickly put on a thick down jacket for her.
Zhou Xuefang tried to warm up.
She really couldn’t understand why so many people didn’t like her even though she had put in so much effort to act.
However, to Su Ji, it was normal to suffer a little to get paid.
How could she earn money if she just wanted to enjoy life?
Seeing that Su Ji was still wearing a short-sleeved shirt, Chen Jing smiled and took out a thick coat for her. “Su Ji, put this on. You might catch a cold.”
Her smile was so radiant that Su Ji would have been touched by her if she had not known her before.
Ever since Su Qianrou’s incident, she had not seen Chen Jing. She must have just finished dealing with Su Qianrou’s mess.
During this period of time, Su Ji’s popularity soared like a rocket.
When they met again, she was completely different.
Chen Jing knew how to follow the tides. Now that Su Ji was popular, she kept licking her boots, as if all the tension in the past had never happened.
Zhou Xuefang, who was watching from the side, felt a surge of jealousy.
Su Ji glanced at Zhou Xuefang, took the coat from Chen Jing’s hands, and put it on.
Zhou Xuefang was so infuriated by her actions that she immediately left.
Su Ji waited for her to leave before turning to Chen Jing. “I find you quite interesting.”
Chen Jing laughed, “that’s right, I’m interesting!”
Su Ji squinted her eyes as she recalled how she had been mistreated by Chen Jing in the original owner’s memory. “When I was working under you, you treated me like air. Now that I’m no longer working for you, you treat me so well. Do you only like to serve others, or you only serve whoever is popular?”
Chen Jing was used to being slick, so the stiffness of her face was not obvious. “Aiya, Su Ji, you’re now a person who has a stable position in the entertainment industry, so I’m sure you can understand. People strive to go higher…”
“I understand,” Su Ji replied.
Chen Jing smiled.
“But I despise you,” Su Ji continued.
The flawless mask on Chen Jing’s face split open.
Su Ji took off her coat and draped it over Chen Jing’s body. She patted her shoulder and said, “I’m sorry, I’m a vengeful person.”
Chen Jing’s heart sank to the bottom.
At noon, they were sent lunch.
The staff member who was the first to open the lunchbox opened his mouth wide and his eyes lit up. “Damn, the food today is so good? The soup is expensive!”
Very quickly, the other staff members also noticed.
Huang Huayu said, “the last time CEO Pei came to inspect, he said that our lunch was too plain and upgraded it!”
The crew cheered.
“No way? The food was already very good, right?”
“Aiya, we think it’s good, but CEO Pei thinks it’s ordinary!”
“Long live CEO Pei! I will forever be loyal to the Pei Corporation!”
“The food is indeed good, but it’s also really spicy!”
At the small dining table in the distance, Si Jingchuan and Xu Ni were eating until their lips were red and their foreheads were covered in sweat, but they couldn’t stop.
It was simply too good.
However, the spiciness was just right for Su Ji. It was very flavorful.
Xu Ni was a smart person. He said, “Su Ji, ask your boyfriend to provide less spicy food next time. My lips are swollen and I won’t be able to film in the afternoon.”
Si Jingchuan gulped down half a bottle of ice water and said, “boss, I’m also on Xu Ni’s side this time. When we film in the afternoon, everyone will have sausage mouths. How much editing must be done later on?”
Su Ji looked up. “Alright, I’ll tell them not to make it so spicy next time.”
Zhou Xuefang was listening to their conversation from afar.
She looked at them in disbelief.
Su Ji could even decide how spicy the food should be?
They must be crazy!
After dinner, Han Junlei told Su Ji about the scene that they were going to shoot in the afternoon.
Some netizens had already noticed the bracelet on her wrist, so they planned to add a few close-up shots of the bracelet in this episode and treat the bracelet as a family heirloom that Bai Yueguang’s father had left for her.
The Bai family had an accident, and Bai Yueguang’s father had mysteriously disappeared. Was it to hide from debt, or was there an accident? The police made no progress after so many years and it had become an unsolved case.
However, Bai Yueguang always felt that her father was not hiding.
Every time she missed her father, she would look at the bracelet in her hand.
She didn’t know that this would become an important clue to her father’s disappearance in the future!
Therefore, the close-up shot of the bracelet in this episode was also a foreshadowing.
There would be special effects that were added later on.
In the afternoon, filming officially started.
Su Ji raised her hand toward the sun, and the bracelet shone under the sunlight.
In the camera, Su Ji’s hand was fair and beautiful. It was so fair that it reflected light, and there was not a single flaw or scar on it.
Si Jingchuan and Xu Ni were dumbfounded and swallowed in shame.
In front of the screen, Huang Huayu glanced at his arm. He could imagine the audience’s reaction when this episode was broadcast.
This pair of hands was definitely a work of art, worthy of being held up, kissed, and worshiped.
The camera moved up Su Ji’s wrist, past her exquisite face, and finally focused on the bracelet.
In the next second, Han Junlei and Huang Huayu leaned over at the same time and glued their eyes on the monitor screen.
They didn’t notice it with the naked eye, but when the camera zoomed in, the bracelet seemed to give off a wonderful luster, as if it was alive.
Han Junlei looked at the monitor screen for a while, then looked up at Su Ji’s bracelet in the distance and blinked.
He was so shocked by this magical feeling that he couldn’t speak for a long time.
After a long while, he pointed at the screen and asked Huang Huayu, “did you see that?”
Huang Huayu was also stunned. “Yes.”
It seemed that he was not hallucinating.
Han Junlei asked, “what’s that? Is it the Tyndall effect? This light seems too magical…”
“I don’t know.” Huang Huayu was also very confused. He half-opened his mouth and said with a smile, “it seems that even Su Ji’s bracelet could act on its own. This way, we don’t even need to add any special effects.”
