Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
When Xia Wei finished speaking, there was already joy in his eyes. However, he could not show it too obviously in front of her manager and assistant.
“Are you sure you’re fine? Then I’ll go back and continue to prepare to film! There’s still a scene of you galloping on a horse later. Can you do it? Although we know you can ride a horse, aren’t you injured now? It’s best not to force yourself.”
Towards the end, the assistant director seemed to feel that his words were too much, so there was a probing smile on his face.
Xia Wei smiled and did not say anything. She just made an OK gesture at the other party, indicating for him to quickly send the director a message.
Seeing that the assistant director had walked far away, Wang Ming sighed deeply and looked at Xia Wei helplessly. “If you really can’t do it later, don’t bite the bullet and show off. It’s something that can be discussed again. There’s no need to make yourself suffer! I know I can’t persuade you, but you’d better think of how to explain it to Jian Tan first. He’s not as easy to fool as us.”
As Wang Ming spoke, he did not stare at Xia Wei anymore. He turned around and went to look for the stylist to confirm Xia Wei’s clothes later. Of course, the most important thing was whether the shoes she was wearing were suitable.
Actually, Xia Wei really did not think that this was a big deal. She smiled at Wang Ming and the two girls’ worries, but when she suddenly heard Wang Ming mention Jian Tan, she actually felt nervous for the first time!
Thinking of how Jian Tan looked when he was angry previously, Xia Wei felt a little guilty.
However, this did not stop Xia Wei from continuing to work. Although her foot still hurt when she stepped on the saddle, Xia Wei braced herself and endured it.
As they rested for a while in the afternoon, the scenes that were filmed on horseback were to be completed in the afternoon.
The director’s style of filming was still so nitpicky, even though he knew very well that the female celebrity in front of his camera had an extremely fresh wound on her foot!
At 6:30 in the evening, which was nearly five hours later, the director finally rushed to the last moment before the afterglow by the sea was about to dissipate. He confirmed that he was going to use the first long screenshot that he had filmed previously. Wang Ming was almost angered to death. Fortunately, he was stopped by the rational Ben, so he did not rush up and scold him.
Hence, when the director announced that their advertisement filming was complete, only the few people standing around Xia Wei were not so happy and excited. They only heaved a sigh of relief, as if they had survived.
At the end of the day, Xia Wei was piggy back to the nanny van by Wang Ming, accompanied by Ben, who was worried about the great beauty’s foot injury.
Looking at Xia Wei’s pale face after removing her makeup, Luo Ying was about to cry from grievance. She silently poured water for Xia Wei and placed the soft pillow. It seemed that only by treating Xia Wei better could she suppress the heartache in her heart.
“Her wound doesn’t look too good. Hurry up and take her to the hospital! I’ll help you talk to the production team. It’s fine if you don’t go to the celebration party today. I think the director doesn’t have any protective feelings for the fairer sex. I’ve decided not to work with him anymore!” Ben, who was a little cynical, said as he looked at Xia Yi’s feet. Xia Wei did not dare to move.
Hearing Ben’s words, Xia Wei instinctively felt that something was wrong. She was about to respond when a low voice came from behind Ben, who was standing outside their car door.
“If people in this industry want to become famous, it’s naturally impossible for them not to suffer a little. 1 like an old saying from China, ‘Only by suffering can one be above others’. Am I right?”
Xia Wei had heard this voice for the entire day, so she naturally could tell who it was. She looked at Director Lys. Although she did not say anything to defend herself, the respect in her eyes could not be hidden.
Xia Wei was a very strong-willed person, so she naturally understood Lys’s high standards and requirements. On the contrary, she would like to work with such a person. After all, who wouldn’t like a talented director who was very strict with himself and his actors!
“You’re very good, Xia Wei. In a movie I’m preparing next year, there’s a very special female role that’s very suitable for you. I hope you can come to France for an audition.” As he spoke, a rare smile bloomed on his face.
He stretched out his large hand and looked at Xia Wei at the same time. At this moment, he was a little friendlier than usual.
Xia Wei understood the other party’s invitation almost instantly.. She also smiled slightly and reached out to shake his hand…
