Chapter 229: Finishing Work Early
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“I passed the audition normally. Director Chen Jing and another main actor were also there when I auditioned that day. There’s definitely nothing fishy.”
Ji Yan felt a little awkward after being explained to by Xia Wei with a smile.
He knew that what he said just now was a little wrong, so he smiled apologetically at Xia Wei and replied softly, “I said something wrong. Don’t take it to heart.”
As Ji Yan spoke, he looked at Xia Wei in front of him seriously. Xia Wei’s looks and figure were naturally superior. At the thought of her equally outstanding acting skills, Ji Yan suddenly felt that it was reasonable for Chen Jing and Bai Ye to choose her!
It was rare to meet a junior actress who he could chat with so happily and hit it off right away. Ji Yan had been chatting with Xia Wei during the break between filming today. He admired this girl more and more.
It was also because the two opposing actors hit it off that Xu Kai’s filming today was extremely smooth and perfect.
Even after filming Shadow Girl and Lord Jiping’s last scene, he still felt unsatisfied. “Cut! Okay, this scene just now was too perfect! 1 announce that we can end work early today. Let’s find a delicious barbecue restaurant while it’s still early. While celebrating Teacher Ji Yan’s filming, we can also have a good meal. I’ll treat you!”
As soon as Xu Kai finished speaking, the staff cheered in unison.
This was the first time they had gotten off work early in a long time! Indeed, not having to work overtime was the happiest thing!
Hearing everyone’s happy cheers, Xu Kai glanced at Xia Wei and continued, “You don’t have to work overtime today. You have to thank our Teacher Xia Wei! She didn’t waste any of my tape for today’s scene. She passed it in one go!”
Xu Kai did not hide his joy at all. The staff present were also infected by his emotions. “Long live Sister Wei!”
“Sister Wei is too awesome. Keep it up!”
“This is Sister Wei’s speed! 1 love it!”
Xia Wei was amused by the praises around her. She just did not waste time on acting. This was the most basic and best thing for actors, but in their eyes, it was something worthy of praise and admiration!
She did not know if this was some kind of sorrow. After sighing helplessly, she chuckled and did not answer.
At 8 p.m. sharp, the sky in City A had completely darkened. A huge business had arrived at a barbecue shop in the suburbs of the city!
Xia Wei was pulled by Luo Ying to sit on the comfortable leather sofa. Behind her was the air conditioner that was emitting cold air.
Instinctively, Xia Wei turned her head and looked at her considerate assistant in admiration. “What do you and Lin Yi want to drink? Let Brother Wang buy it!”
Mr. Wang Ming, who was clearly the manager who made the decisions, was only doing some assistant chores.”…”
At the mention of this drink, Luo Ying and Lin Yi could not help but think of the trouble yesterday. At the same time that they felt unlucky, the two of them shook their heads in tacit understanding. Luo Ying said, “This sour plum drink will do!”
“Yes,” Lin Yi added.
Xia Wei raised her eyebrows when she heard that. After looking at the two girls in amusement, she looked up at Wang Ming. “Take a carton of cold beer, just like Director Xu and the others. This place is quite close to the hotel. You don’t have to worry about not being able to go back when you’re drunk. It’s rare for us to have an early shift today. Relax. Don’t think about such nonsense during mealtime!”
After saying that, she ignored Luo Ying’s sparkling eyes. She chuckled and leaned back in her chair. She took out her cell phone and browsed Weibo.
Today’s filming was quite full. She had not had time to look at her cell phone. Now that she could finally rest, she naturally had to relax.
Looking at the various comments left by her fans under her account, Xia Wei did not stop smiling. She saw a funny message and took a screenshot.
A minute later, Xia Wei’s Weibo account suddenly updated with a post. It was a screenshot of a fan’s message and a group photo that Xia Wei had forgotten to upload yesterday!
“I was too tired after going back yesterday, so 1 forgot to post this photo! I’m sorry, babies.”
With such a message attached to the two photos, it quickly attracted many netizens who were free after work. It had only been a few minutes, but Xia Wei saw that the post had already been commented on and liked more than 10,000 times. She replied to a few fans in the front row with hardcore fan titles in a good mood..
