Chapter 44 Lin Yurou's Scheming on the Set

Shi Wan pushed Pei Cheng back to the hotel.

Director Li had already arranged for staff to wait there. The staff handed Pei Cheng's room card to Shi Wan, glanced at Pei Cheng again before leaving.

Shi Wan was distracted the whole time. She really didn't know that she owed so many debts of love. Now she felt really embarrassed.

Pei Cheng called her softly: "Wanwan."

"Hmm?" Shi Wan responded reflexively.

"What are you thinking?"

Shi Wan shook his head reflexively: "No."

Shi Wan could tease Zhan Xu, but what about Pei Cheng? Shi Wan didn't dare to be presumptuous.

Pei Cheng smiled beautifully, his light-colored eyes were very deep.

Shi Wan pushed him into the elevator and changed the subject, saying, "From the looks of the screenwriter, your scene should be ready tomorrow. I'll act with you then. You can't ruin my first scene after returning to China!"

"No, I also hope that the scene with you can become a classic."

Shi Wan paused. When she didn't know Pei Cheng's feelings, she would never misunderstand what he said. But now, every word made her uneasy.

Pei Cheng saw all of Shi Wan's behavior. He just smiled faintly, did not embarrass her, and did not say anything else.

Shi Wan sent him back to his room and left as if escaping.

She returned to her room, threw herself on the bed, and stared blankly at the ceiling.

The next day, Shi Wan went to the set early without calling Pei Cheng.

Qin Shuochen also arrived early, yawning.

"Shuochen, you're here quite early!" Director Li greeted him energetically.

Qin Shuochen squinted his eyes and nodded, looking like he hadn't woken up yet: "Good morning, Director Li."

Director Li patted him on the shoulder and said to the others on the set, "If all the actors today had Shuochen's spirit of learning, how could they be criticized for not having good acting skills? Take some behind-the-scenes footage of Shuochen so that we can use it in promotions."

Qin Shuochen was too sleepy to explain, so he found a place to doze off.

Shi Wan has a rival scene with Lin Yurou today. Lin Yurou has also arrived. She glanced at Qin Shuochen who was about to fall asleep, then glanced at Shi Wan who was staring at Qin Shuochen in deep thought, and took the initiative to walk to Shi Wan and say hello.

"Shi Wan, good morning!" Lin Yurou greeted Shi Wan with a smile.

Shi Wan retracted his gaze and chuckled silently: "Such a good acting skill and I hope you can put it into the play. It seems that our relationship is not good, right?"

Lin Yurou was not affected and smiled sweetly as always: "Since we are all in the same crew now, getting along harmoniously is what Director Li wants to see. We should not make things difficult for Director Li and the staff."

Her voice was not low, and it was just when everyone had just woken up and didn't want to talk, but everyone on the set could hear it.

Everyone looked over, thinking that Shi Wan was bullying Lin Yurou.

Shi Wan crossed her arms and smiled sarcastically, "Ms. Lin is really professional. She got into the role so quickly. She was thinking about how to trick me both in and out of the play. I really admire her."

After Shi Wan said this, everyone realized that Lin Yurou's words just now were quite green tea. Shi Wan was accused of being at odds with her without doing anything.

Lin Yurou noticed that everyone's eyes on her had changed. She still smiled and gently explained, "I just wanted to come and apologize. You stole my role that day, so it's understandable that I was a little angry. I hope Miss Shi will forgive me and not affect everyone's filming progress because of your anger at me."

Shi Wan didn't indulge her. He looked her up and down with a look of contempt in his eyes: "Ms. Lin, I don't know if you are doubting my ability or the professionalism of Director Li and the screenwriter, or you are just stupid and don't understand it well? Didn't Director Li say that day that the second female lead he wanted was me, and you used my name to meet Director Li. You are so shameless. Who is robbing whose? Don't you have any idea?"

Lin Yurou's face turned pale and red. She looked at Director Li in embarrassment, trying to ask for help. She said, "I just want to get along well with you so as not to affect the progress of the filming. Why are you so unprofessional?"

Director Li looked away. Not to mention that he liked Shi Wan more, the most important thing was that the biggest sponsor wanted to support Shi Wan! The sponsor was also smart. He didn't transfer the money all at once, but paid it in installments without any delay, unlike Jiang Yifeng, who always didn't pay in time.

Seeing that Lin Yurou failed to ask for help, Shi Wan smiled and glanced at her with contempt: "You are wrong again. We were not compatible in the play. I am professional and I am immersed in the play."

After that, the coach on the sidelines waved to Shi Wan and Lin Yurou. Shi Wan walked over and whispered in Lin Yurou's ear, "Don't forget, I still have the second half of the last video."

Lin Yurou was shocked all over, and when she turned around, she saw Shi Wan was already trying out the wirework.

Seeing that Lin Yurou hadn't moved, the coach on the sidelines frowned and called her, "Come here quickly!" Then he muttered in a low voice, "What a hassle! Can't you just focus on filming? You have to squeeze others out. You're not a big shot! But you're just imitating those unpresentable tricks."

Shi Wan listened and laughed. He realized that he had to act well on the set to win the respect of the staff.

The two people's acting in the air went quite smoothly. Shi Wan's dialogue skills and martial arts foundation were good. Lin Yurou had a hard time controlling her expression when she was hanging on the wire, let alone reciting the lines.

Director Li gave up on recording Lin Yurou on the spot and let a stand-in help her complete the fighting scenes in the air.

After the fight scene in the air, there was a scene where Lin Yurou was defeated and lying on the ground, saying harsh words to Shi Wan.

Shi Wan was hanging on a wire, looking down at Lin Yurou from above, the contempt in his eyes was exactly the same as before the filming just now.

Director Li couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. It must be very good for an actor to maintain the state of the role at all times. Take Shi Wan for example. If Lin Yurou hadn't been so weak, Shi Wan wouldn't have had to NG in every scene today.

At this moment, Lin Yurou coughed up a pool of blood and threatened Shi Wan: "You..."

She forgot her words.

"Cut!" "Another one!"

Lin Yurou coughed up another pool of blood and threatened Shi Wan: "Don't think you can beat me, I will..."

"Card!"

This was the sixth time Director Li called out "Cut" for Lin Yurou today. His impatience grew: "Show her the lines! How much time do you want to waste with just one sentence?!"

After saying that, Director Li looked up at Shi Wan in mid-air: "Are you okay? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Shi Wan made an OK gesture. It was impossible to say that he had no discomfort at all. Simply hanging was fine, but he had to maintain the posture of shooting down Lin Yurou in the air, which would take some effort.

Lin Yurou memorized her lines very seriously.

Shi Wan sneered: "Even if you let me hang here for a whole day, why do you have to put on this show? Or did you tamper with my wire? If it keeps on going, why can't you get through it?"

Lin Yurou looked at Shi Wan with shock in her eyes: "I have no grudge against you, how could you think of me like this?"

Shi Wan signaled her with her eyes to look at the expressions of the staff around her.

All the staff looked impatient and disdainful.

Lin Yurou panicked and apologized to the staff and Director Li repeatedly: "I'm sorry, this is my first time filming such a popular drama. I'm a little nervous and want to show my best to the audience, so..."

Director Li interrupted her and said, "The best state is to forget the words?"
