"Yeah, I texted you but you didn't reply, so I went out to buy some." Xie Qingyu nodded.

“I went to bed early, but I noticed you called half an hour later. What’s going on…” Sister Zhang was quite perceptive in this regard, after all, she had guessed several possibilities before Xie Qingyu woke up.

"Yesterday when I went to the convenience store, I felt like someone was following me, so I thought I'd call you to see if you could find someone to come pick me up." Sister Zhang was much more popular on set than her, and had more people to coordinate with, so she could call on a cameraman or prop master for courage.

"Are they paparazzi or stalkers following you? Your haters wouldn't go that far, would they?" Sister Zhang said, sounding a little flustered.

"Is it possible that he's just a bad guy, not a paparazzi or a hater or anything like that..." Xie Qingyu reminded Sister Zhang.

"That's possible. So how did you get back?"

“Some members of the film crew went to the convenience store to buy things, and I came back with them.”

"That's good. It's more reassuring to have an assistant by your side. I'll ask Xiaoting when she can get to the set. With her there, she can keep you company." Sister Zhang stood up to make a phone call.

However, as the call continued, Sister Zhang noticed something was wrong. Her gaze shifted as she looked at Xie Qingyu with a scrutinizing expression, examining her from head to toe.

After the other end of the phone hung up, she immediately came over and said, "You look a little swollen. Did you sneak something to eat yesterday?"

"No, it's probably just some swelling because my period started." Xie Qingyu touched her face, showing no sign of guilt.

"Really?" Sister Zhang looked Xie Qingyu around, unsure whether she believed her.

"Alright, you're off today anyway. Xiaoting will be here this afternoon and can come with you." Sister Zhang has a family and can't stay with Xie Qingyu on set all the time; she needs to go back to see her child occasionally.

"I'll go to the film set later and see what I can learn," Xie Qingyu said.

"That's fine too. You don't have a vocational college background, so it's always good to learn more." Sister Zhang was very supportive.

Although she hasn't achieved much with Xie Qingyu yet, and her influence in the company has diminished since giving birth, and she can't secure many resources for Xie Qingyu, she still has great faith in Xie Qingyu.

She had high hopes for this artist, whom she discovered and mentored, and he is now one of the few artists under her management with some popularity.

"Ah."

Xie Qingyu changed her clothes and went to the film set, where she found a place to sit down where it wouldn't be in the way.

Today's filming took place in the Imperial Garden, mainly focusing on the scenes between Chi Shen and Xia Qinghuan.

When they first met, Chi Shen felt a dislike and contempt for Xia Qinghuan, who was so ignorant of the ways of the world, but he still had to appear kind on the surface.

That subtle feeling could only be expressed through his delicate facial expressions, and if the audience were to observe from the perspective of the story, they might not notice it at first. Only as the events unfolded further would they be able to appreciate his performance.

So the director spent a long time explaining the scene and showing what shots he wanted.

Chi Shen cooperated very well. Basically, there were no retakes due to mistakes in the performance. The only problem was that the extras were not in place.

Because the requirements for the scenes are high, the director also has high requirements for the extras. However, as long as the wages are paid properly, the extras will not have any complaints and will cooperate to redo the scenes.
