Wen Yining adjusted her breathing and danced again.

"Wait a minute, director."

"I think my eyes just now lacked some spirit. Please do it again."

Director Chen's face showed impatience, but Zhang Nian, who played the third female role, had brought money into the crew, and her eyes were definitely not in the right place just now.

Director Chen said, "Why don't you take a break first and try to get the feeling."

Zhang Nian replied, "No need for the director, I will definitely perform well this time."

This was already the fifteenth NG today. Everyone in the crew could see that Zhang Nian was deliberately making things difficult for Wen Yining.

At the beginning, Wen Yining auditioned for the third female role. In the play, she was the daughter of a chivalrous martial arts leader. She fell in love with the male lead at an early age and later became a great help to the male lead.

She dares to love and hate, is not particular about small matters, and has a sense of justice. The director is very satisfied with Wen Yining's own conditions and performance, and is ready to finalize her to play the third female role.

But Zhang Nian suddenly intervened, brought money into the group, and specifically asked for the role of the third female lead.

The director was helpless, but when he learned that Wen Yining could dance, he decided on the spot to let her play the role of the courtesan Yuchang in the play.

Wen Yining had a general understanding of Yuchang's role when reading the script. She was an extraordinary woman who had the greater good of the world in her heart even when she was in dire straits.

In the play, she is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and can sing and dance. Most of the information about the male protagonist was obtained by her. Her character is good, so Wen Yining agreed.

However, Zhang Nian was surprised to hear that she was almost chosen for the third female role. She became jealous. Moreover, Wen Yining was not only good-looking, but her acting skills were also praised by the director, which made her even more dissatisfied.

This time, Zhang Nian's eye acting finally passed, and Director Chen breathed a sigh of relief, "Click, passed."

Zhang Nian shouted, "Director, you can't pass."

Director Chen suppressed his anger and said, "What's the matter now?"

Zhang Nian said, "Director, Wen Yining is acting out. She is sweating on her forehead."

Although it was already autumn, Wen Yining was required to dance for more than an hour for a dance scene that only lasted a few minutes. It would be strange if she didn't sweat.

"And she was obviously exhausted and out of breath just now."

At this time, the actor who played the leading male role, Liu Jiaze, could no longer bear to watch it and spoke up for Wen Yining, "Director, I don't think this has any impact, on the contrary, it fits the plot very well."

When everyone saw that the male lead had spoken, they all spoke up for Wen Yining.

But Zhang Nian was unyielding, "That won't do, Director. This is a big production and we can't afford any mistakes."

Director Chen slammed the script on the table: "Then everyone take a break. This will give Xiao Wen some time to adjust his state."

Zhang Nian had another opinion, "Director, you can't let us all wait here for her."

Wen Yining didn't want to waste any more words, "Director, please do it again, I can do it."

The makeup artist quickly touched up Wen Yining's makeup.

"Okay, everyone take your positions."

"Three, two, one, start."

At this moment, Shen Yi's fists were clenched so tightly that they made a creaking sound. Zhou Yang couldn't bear to watch it any longer, "Boss Shen..."

Shen Yi came back to his senses, gave Zhou Yang a look, and then turned and left. His steps were heavy with anger, as if he wanted to crush the ground under his feet.

Not long after, a staff member was seen whispering something in the director's ear. Director Chen stopped the filming and said, "Okay, let's stop here for today." After that, he left in a hurry.

Zhang Nian shouted unwillingly: "Director, director, it's not even dark yet, why don't you shoot?"

Wen Yining dragged her tired body to remove her makeup, but Zhang Nian blocked her way.

Wen Yining said bluntly: "A good dog doesn't block the road."

Zhang Nian said angrily: "Who are you calling a dog?"

Wen Yining shot back: "Of course it's up to whoever should say it."

After saying that, he walked around her and left. Zhang Nian shouted behind her, "Wen Yining, let's wait and see."

The director hurried backstage, where Zhou Yang was leisurely drinking tea. In the corner of the backstage, the lights were dim and the atmosphere was depressing.

"Assistant Zhou, what brings you here?"

As he spoke, he looked around and asked, "What is Director Chen looking at?"

Director Chen was full of doubts, because the staff just said that Mr. Shen had arrived.

"Assistant Zhou, where is Mr. Shen?"

Zhou Yang: "Oh, Mr. Shen just watched a play for a while, and he was not in a good mood, so he left."

Director Chen's heart skipped a beat. If he could get Shen Yi's investment, why would he go around looking for investors to raise funds? But Assistant Zhou said that Shen Yi was not in a good mood and said that he had just watched a play for a while.

Director Chen asked cautiously, "Assistant Zhou, please explain clearly."

Zhou Yang stood up and said without further ado, "I, an outsider, can see that Miss Wen was maliciously harassed just now. Director Chen should not be able to see it."

"Director Chen, don't lose the big picture for the small. Don't go back to the old ways."

Zhou Yang's hint was very obvious. Director Chen felt so miserable. All of them were powerful people. Even Wen Yining, who he thought had no background and was easy to bully, had such a powerful person behind him.

If you had told me earlier that Shen Yi was behind her, I would have arranged for her to play the role of the heroine.

Shen Yi sat in the car, staring at the rearview mirror. The Maybach that appeared outside the film and television city attracted many passers-by to watch. The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the car body, reflecting a dazzling light.

When he saw a beautiful figure appear, he lowered the window, revealing his handsome face, "Get in the car."

Wen Yining was curious about why he appeared here, but there were so many people here, so she could only get in the car first.

After Wen Yining sat down, Shen Yi stepped on the accelerator and drove away. He took out the watermelon-flavored ice cream cone that he had prepared long ago and handed it to Wen Yining.

Wen Yining took it doubtfully, "For me?"

Shen Yi responded: "Yeah."

Wen Yining licked the ice cream with the tip of her tongue: "By the way, why are you here?"

The road here is winding, and Shen Yi keeps turning the steering wheel with both hands: "I'm here to find someone without conscience."

Wen Yining ate the ice cream without saying a word. She felt that she should be grateful for what she had received. So, she decided to just endure it today.

Seeing that she was silent, Shen Yi asked, "Why didn't you answer my calls or reply to my messages these days?"

Wen Yining ate ice cream and explained perfunctorily: "I've been busy these days."

Shen Yi sneered, "Oh, an excuse."

"Aren't you going to explain what happened that day?"

Wen Yining paused, looking at her bent legs: "Nothing happened between us that day, what's there to explain?"

Shen Yi said in a bad tone: "Yeah, nothing happened that day, so why did you run away?"

"It's fine if you run, but you're hiding!"

Shen Yi was very angry. Wen Yining had never shown mercy to him before, but today he was bullied like that and he didn't fight back.

Normally Shen Yi is always nonchalant and playful, but his serious look at the moment is really a bit scary.

Wen Yining whispered back: "Who is hiding from you? I am really busy."

Shen Yi took a deep breath and said helplessly: "Forget it, I won't bother with you."

That night, Shen Yi sent Wen Yining home. On the way, Wen Yining vomited all over him. Shen Yi insisted on going home to change clothes first, so he took Wen Yining back to his villa.

Instead, he received a task from Ji Hanzhou asking him to get some information from Wen Yining, so he took out his treasured red wine. Before he could figure out how to coax Wen Yining into drinking it, Wen Yining took a fancy to his wine first.

She was so greedy that she accidentally drank too much. When she woke up again, she found that they were lying in the same bed. Before she could think, Wen Yining ran away.

When Wen Yining thinks back to that day, she still doesn't regret her decision.

She was afraid that something really happened between them. What if Shen Yi asked her to take responsibility? She wasn't famous yet, so she couldn't afford a scandal.
