Mu Xiaoya was so pissed that her entire face was twisted. She pulled a long face and went to touch up her makeup. She didnât know why, but she really wanted to claw at Ye Shenggeâs calm face.
Soon, the third retake started but it was still bad. As they did reshoots, it was one NG after another. The worse it was, the more pissed Mu Xiaoya got and she became more emotional as she acted. Compared to Ye Shengge, who had performed stably, Mu Xiaoya was like a clown.
No one believed that Ying Xue could tussle with Xue Ning for decades.
âCut!â Xu Xiangjie yelled for the umpteenth time. âRest for ten minutes! Mu Xiaoya, come here!â
Mu Xiaoya was certain that Xu Xiangjie was trying to embarrass her on purpose. Thus, she acted aloof when Xu Xiangjie talked to her and did not listen.
Ye Shengge walked to Mu Xiaoyaâs side and said, âXue Ning is just a concubine. Sheâs nothing compared to the princess whoâs been doted on by the emperor. Ying Xue didnât think much of Xue Ning in the first place, so when she asked Xue Ning to move out, sheâs supposed to be arrogant and nonchalant, not furious.â
Mu Xiaoya stood up abruptly and said, âI know how to act. I donât need you to speak needlessly.â
âSpeak needlessly?â Ye Shengge smiled. âMu Xiaoya, have you forgotten how youâve gotten all your roles? I have been coaching you for all your roles.â
âShut up!â Mu Xiaoya was shaking with anger. âI can do it without your teaching!â
âI hope so. If you donât act well, Iâm afraid Director Xu will have to replace you.â Ye Shengge smiled. âItâs only the start of the show, and it wonât be a big loss.â
Mu Xiaoyaâs face changed completely.
Mu Xiaoya couldnât perform suitably for this scene, so Director Xu had to put a X on his list and arrange for a reshoot another time.
âI donât think Mu Xiaoyaâs acting skills when I normally watch TV.â
âThatâs right! What happened to her today? Itâs like she no longer knows how to act.â
âIf sheâs like this in the future, when would we be able to finish shooting?â
...
Mu Xiaoya almost went crazy when she heard the crew talking.
Was she going to fail a shoot without Ye Shengge?
No, Xu Xiangjie mustâve embarrassed her on purpose. He had an affair with Ye Shengge, so of course he would help her.
Mu Xiaoya couldnât help gulp.
Lin Qi also handed the cup to Ye Shengge. âWhat happened to Mu Xiaoya today? Has she always been so terrible?â
Ye Shengge smiled and said, âSheâs not that bad, but I was the one in the scene with her today. She wanted to overwhelm me so much, but it turned out to be bad.â
In the end, Mu Xiaoya lacked confidence in front of her. She knew very well that she had relied on Ye Shengge to get to where she was today, so in front of Ye Shengge, she couldnât be as calm as Ying Xue was toward Xue Ning.
âThen what should we do? She wonât even be able to finish a scene!â Lin Qi frowned. âAnd she even dragged you into so many additional scenes.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âThen weâll have to change people,â Ye Shengge said with a smile. âI donât mind pushing her out of the cast at all.â
Back then, she had asked Xu Xiangjie to sign Mu Xiaoya because she hadnât fallen out with Mu Yanhuai yet.
Now that she had broken up with Mu Yanhuai, she was more than happy to kick Mu Xiaoya out.
