Chapter 228: Chapter 228 - 228: You Don’t Have to Shoot

The assistant quickly handed Yu Muhuai a bottle of water.

Luo Hongqing sat behind the camera and watched the replay with the others.

“Did you think of that French sentence on the spot?” Luo Hongqing looked curiously at Song Qingyou.

“What do you mean?”

The latter nodded slightly and repeated in a local accent, “Je veux la gloirea mes genoux.”

“I want glory at my knees.”

Luo Hongqing pondered for two seconds. “Not bad, it fits the situation… I didn’t expect you to know French.”

“I learned it before.”

She had lived longer than ordinary people. If she did not learn a few more languages, it would be a waste of “resources.”

Thinking about how Song Qingyou was only in high school and even knew French, she must be very diligent in private. Luo Hongqing praised her with satisfaction.

“From the looks of it, your current acting skills are not bad.”

Luo Hongqing said to Song Qingyou when he mentioned the scene just now.

The reason why it was only “current” was mainly because the two of them had only been filming for the past two days. They were wearing masks on their faces, so no one could see their exact expressions.

For actors, facial expressions were very important.

“Qingyou is very reassuring. Little Yu has only acted in one TV series,” The assistant director chimed in. “It’s really not bad to have such a performance.”

They all looked in Yu Muhuai’s direction.

At this moment, he had already regained his senses. He even took off his mask and smiled at them.

Luo Hongqing saw that he was not in a good state, so he waved his hand and beckoned him over.

“Are you feeling unwell?” The strict Director Luo rarely cared about others.

Yu Muhuai shook his head and lowered his head as if he was embarrassed. “I got a little too into character.”

“This is a good thing. However, don’t get too immersed in your character…”

Luo Hongqing spoke a few words, thinking of taking this opportunity to shoot a few more scenes.

Hence, the afternoon was basically spent filming the parts where Yu Muhuai appeared. Fu Chen and Zhong Jiayin, the male and female leads, were rarely free, so they naturally had nothing to complain about.

When night fell, the filming of the scene of Song Qingyou falling into the water was officially started.

“Qingyou and Zhu Jiao, get ready. We’ll shoot the scene of falling into the water later.”

“If you don’t want to stay in the water all night, then cheer up and try to successfully shoot it in one go!”

Luo Hongqing shouted with a megaphone.

Song Qingyou and Zhu Jiao stood in their respective positions.

According to the script, Shen Huan chased after the girl who saw him and Grey. At the critical moment, the girl pushed Shen Huan into the lake with the help of the steps hidden under the artificial lake.

After the director shouted the start, the two of them started chasing each other.

Zhu Jiao slowly retreated to the side of the artificial lake and shook her head in fear.

“I didn’t see anything…! didn’t see anything…”

“Don’t kill me…Don’t kill me…”

She muttered these words repeatedly.

Because she was too weak, Shen Huan let down her guard and walked towards her.

Everyone quieted down, waiting for Song Qingyou’s next performance.

The scene of falling into the water wasn’t easy for Song Qingyou, because everyone had survival instincts, but she had to go against her instincts.

At this moment, a black and white shadow suddenly jumped out of the grass. Just as Song Qingyou was about to get close to Zhu Jiao, it suddenly jumped onto her lap.

It wasn’t until everyone saw the cat hugging Song Qingyou’s calf like it was hugging a tree that they finally realized what had happened.

Clack!

Luo Hongqing hurriedly shouted to stop.

“Qingyou, this is your cat, right? Keep it away!”

“If we delay the filming any further, we can’t bring it to the production team.”

Song Qingyou picked up the cat and nodded.

In order to prevent others from accusing her, Chen Lan even apologized to Zhu Jiao on her behalf.

Normally, Zhu Jiao would have mocked Song Qingyou and forced her to apologize personally.

But this time, she nodded uncharacteristically and agreed.

Song Qingyou, who had wanted to teach her cat a lesson, stopped and glanced at Zhu Jiao suspiciously.

“Maybe the crew hasn’t been paying attention to her recently. She knows how to restrain herself,” Chen Lan whispered.

Song Qingyou didn’t comment.

If Zhu Jiao knew her limits, she wouldn’t have offended Zhong Jiayin just to vent her anger.

That was what she thought, but Song Qingyou didn’t say it.

Most of her thoughts were on acting.

“Zhizhi, don’t do this again. Otherwise, you’ll be a cat locked up in a hotel alone.”

Song Qingyou pretended to be strict, like she was teaching a child.

“You must know that I’m nervous, right? Don’t worry, I won’t be nervous next time.”

Jiang Zhihan raised his head and placed his paw on Song Qingyou’s arm.

He really wanted to persuade Song Qingyou to give up on filming this scene, but he couldn’t stop her. Seeing the look on her face, he wasn’t in a position to stop her.

Song Qingyou was wearing a mask, and she had always been strong-willed, so she hid it very well. No one present could tell that there was anything wrong with her.

Jiang Zhihan had a bad feeling.

“Meow-”

“You can choose not to shoot.”

The cat’s meowing was drowned out by Luo I longqing’s loudspeaker not far away.

But even if Song Qingyou heard it, she wouldn’t understand what it meant.

She handed the cat to Chen Lan. “Sister Lan, please take care of Zhizhi.”

“Alright, I’ll stuff it into the cat carrier later and let it stay there obediently.”

Song Qingyou nodded and returned to the shooting location.

She rarely missed a scene, and she would definitely be able to do it this time.

Just as Song Qingyou jumped into the water, Luo Hongqing shouted, “Cut! Stop, stop, stop!”

“Zhu Jiao? What’s wrong with you? Qingyou’s position is fine, why did you suddenly block the camera?”

Luo Hongqing’s gaze was unfriendly. Zhu Jiao did not dare to raise her head to look at him. She bowed to the people around her and apologized, “I’m sorry, Director. I’m sorry. I accidentally blocked the camera.”

“It’s all that cat’s fault for jumping out and scaring me. I was just worried that it would suddenly rush over again…” n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Miss Zhu, you were slandering me for being afraid of cats,” Fu Chen said bluntly. “I didn’t expect you to be afraid of cats.”

Seeing that Zhu Jiao still wanted to say something, Luo Hongqing interrupted her, “Alright, Qingyou, go change your clothes, blow dry your hair, and do it again.”

Everyone thought that they would definitely pass this time.

Unexpectedly, five minutes later…

Song Qingyou fell into the water again.

Zhu Jiao immediately apologized. “I’m sorry. I wasn’t in a good mood just now.

Director Luo, please give me another chance.”

Luo Hongqing was unhappy and didn’t even want to look at her again. He turned to look at Song Qingyou, who had taken off her mask. Her face was a little pale.

“Qingyou, can you continue filming? Should we shoot tomorrow night?”

“I’m fine.”

Song Qingyou threw her wet hair behind her head and suppressed the fear of water in her heart.

Perhaps after she overcame it this time, she wouldn’t have to be afraid anymore.

Fu Chen and the others stepped forward one after another. Some handed over towels, while others took hot water bags…

The temperature wasn’t high these few days, let alone at night.

Song Qingyou had many people asking about her well-being, while Zhu Jiao was scolded by Luo Hongqing.

Jiang Zhihan scratched the cat carrier and wanted to go out, but Chen Lan kept glancing at him, making him unable to move..
