Chapter 1300: Physique Problems
Everyone was horrified, and Xiao Li and the rest were all annoyed. They wouldn’t be retaliated against after scolding Xia Yingluo like that, right?
Tang Yuan responded quickly. After a moment of stiffness, she smiled like a flower, stretching out two hands and wanting to shake hands with Xia Yingluo. “Ms. Xia, I’m sorry I didn’t know it was you. Sit, sit, I’ve offended you just now. Please don’t hold it against me.”
Xia Yingluo was motionless and treated her as air.
Tang Yuan withdrew her hand embarrassingly and instructed her assistant. “Qiang Zi, aren’t you going to make a cup of tea for Ms. Xia? Use the Biluochun we brought. It’s this year’s special new tea and is very good.”
Qiang Zi answered, and went quickly.
Xia Yingluo said, “No need to worry about it. I’ll go after looking around. Director Fang, when is Ling’er going to end her filming? I’ve taken a fancy to a piece of clothing and I want to find Ling’er to help me look at it.” At this point, everyone was awkward staying here. She only had to support Jin Ling’er so that they didn’t provoke her in the future. As for the other things, she didn’t want to care about them.
Director Fang said, “Ling’er has few scenes only. We’ll do it now.”
He said to Tang Yuan, “Tang Yuan, your filming will be moved to the afternoon. You can rest in the morning.”
Originally, the roles of the main characters came first. Small characters like Jin Ling’er got dressed in the morning and waited for them. Sometimes they had bad luck and had to wait for a whole day to shoot. But since Ms. Xia said she wanted to go shopping, who dared to delay her affairs? Naturally, the filming of Jin Ling’er was done first, and even the movie queen had to stand aside. Tang Yuan was angry inside, but she clearly saw how much Xia Yingluo valued Jin Ling’er and didn’t want to incur bad luck.
Immediately, Tang Yuan smiled and said, “Okay, let me take a break and drink tea with Ms. Xia.”
Fang Wei took Jin Ling’er to start the filming and left Xia Yingluo sitting in a chair leisurely.
Over there, Tang Yuan’s assistant brought tea over and respectfully placed it in front of Xia Yingluo. “Ms. Xia, please have tea.”
Xia Yingluo resented him for scolding her just now. She didn’t even bat her eyelashes and treated him as air. Qiang Zi’s smile was a bit stiff, and he stood there awkwardly, not knowing what to do. Many people in the crew stared at this side to watch the show. Who told Qiang Zi to offend so many people just because he was Tang Yuan’s assistant? Everyone couldn’t wait to see him run out of luck. At this time, seeing Xia Yingluo ignore him, many people were joyous over his calamity.
Noticing her assistant’s awkwardness, Tang Yuan quickly called him over and served the tea herself. “Ms. Xia, drink tea.”
She was really worthy of being the movie queen. Her smile was natural, her tone gentle, and her stance was low.
But who was Xia Yingluo? She was a young lady who had been pampered and prideful since young, so how could she simply let it go after being scolded for no reason and almost getting kicked out of the set? Also, she wasn’t so easy to curry favor with. Could any random dog or cat curry favor with her?
She beckoned and called over Xiao Li, who was standing at the side.
Xiao Li had just offended her, and he quickly bowed and said, “Ms. Xia, what orders do you have?”
“I’m tired, I want to be alone,” Xia Yingluo said to him. “Help me keep guard and clear out those tactless idle people who come here to curry favor with me.”
Xiao Li’s face turned green all of a sudden. Where were the idle and tactless people? There was only Tang Yuan, who was holding the teacup and trying to get along with Xia Yingluo! Hearing Xia Yingluo’s words, she clearly wanted him to chase Tang Yuan away!
Xiao Li almost wanted to cry. He couldn’t mess with Xia Yingluo, but he also couldn’t anger Tang Yuan!
“Ms. Xia, this…” He looked at Xia Yingluo awkwardly.
Xia Yingluo was impatient. “Why, don’t you want to do it? It doesn’t matter, call your director again.”
“It’s okay, it’s okay, I’ll do it,” Xiao Li said. What good would happen if Director Fang was alarmed again? Xia Yingluo had given him such a tricky problem clearly to take revenge on him for insulting her just now. If he involved this tricky problem with Director Fang, wouldn’t Director Fang peel his skin off? He still had to hang around with the crew in the future. What could he do if he was abandoned by Director Fang?
One side was Xia Yingluo and Director Fang, and the other was Tang Yuan. After weighing the matter, Xiao Li made his decision.
“Sister Tang, sorry.” He smiled politely at Tang Yuan. “I’ll bring you to take a rest over there. I’ll buy some fruit for you later.”
When Tang Yuan saw this situation, she knew that she wouldn’t be helping herself if she stayed longer.
She hated Xia Yingluo for being so unfriendly, but on the surface, she showed a smile without losing her grace. “Okay.”
Then, she turned around and left.
Xia Yingluo’s anger dissipated.
Soon, Jin Ling’er finished filming, and the two left the studio affectionately to go shopping.
Jin Ling’er held Xia Yingluo’s hand and said, “Yingluo, you were really cool today. Do you know how arrogant Tang Yuan is usually? It makes me so happy to see her being so low profile today, hahaha.” Even though she was the movie queen, Tang Yuan was difficult to serve. Many people in the crew had complained, and Jin Ling’er was one of them. They would also meet with calamity if Tang Yuan couldn’t be served well.
Jin Ling’er just wanted to applaud Xia Yingluo for her fight today.
Xia Yingluo was a little worried. “Be careful, I’m afraid she will take revenge on you.”
She began to regret it. She shouldn’t have lost her temper and not given Tang Yuan face. She was used to being a missy at home and learned from her mother and her two brothers who weren’t afraid of the world’s chaos and could walk around proudly, but she had forgotten that Jin Ling’er still needed protection.
Jin Ling’er said, “Rest assured. They now know that I’m your friend, who would dare to make things difficult for me? Even Tang Yuan wouldn’t dare.”
When she said that, Xia Yingluo was slightly relieved. She told her to tell her if she encountered any bullying.
Jin Ling’er comforted her a few more times, and then they happily went shopping.
After shopping, Jin Ling’er returned to the crew to film as usual.
A few days later, Xia Yingluo received news that she was sick and hospitalized.
She rushed to the hospital to visit her, and saw Jin Ling’er lying weakly on the hospital bed, her small face blushing scarlet. She touched Jin Ling’er’s forehead, and her heat burned her hands. She said anxiously, “Ling’er, what’s going on, what happened to you?”
Jin Ling’er smiled forcefully. “It’s all right, there was a scene of jumping into the water. It was probably because the weather is too cold. After I landed, I caught a cold and burned into pneumonia without knowing.” She coughed a few times and gasped in difficulty.
Xia Yingluo held her hand in distress. “It’s really hard for you to get into the water in such cold weather. And what’s wrong with the crew? Why didn’t they pay attention to the actor’s physical well-being and prevent you from falling ill?”
Jin Ling’er smiled bitterly. “It’s my physique problem, who’s to blame?”
