Chapter 17 Global Brokers
After receiving Lu Qinghua's encouragement, I did not feel relaxed in my heart, but became more nervous.
The first shot was the crucial one.
In the script, the queen played by Cui Lingyun was sick in bed, and after the imperial doctor's diagnosis and treatment, she shook her head, and Ning'er cried and held the imperial doctor's hand, begging him to save the emperor.
"Cards!"
I was still crying with the imperial doctor and stopped, looking at the director a little blankly.
I really don't think I made any mistakes in the scene just now.
"What's wrong, Ling Yun?"
Turning my head, I saw Cui Lingyun on the bed stretching out his hand.
Cui Lingyun half-sat up and said apologetically: "I'm sorry director, this quilt is not covered." β
The field attendant next to me hurriedly stepped forward to tidy up the quilt, and I brewed my emotions and started again.
"Doctor, please...... Please save our queen mother......"
I imagined how it would be like to be a faithful servant at this time, and tears flowed out like beads of broken thread.
When you're crying out of breathβ
"Cards."
Subconsciously, I turned my head to look at Cui Lingyun on the bed, and sure enough, I saw her sitting up with a lot of guilt.
"Lingyun, are you not feeling well, your eyes have been moving just now."
There are several close-ups of Cui Lingyun in the middle of this scene.
Cui Lingyun pursed her lips, and her eyes were full of apologies, "I'm sorry director, I didn't seem to be ready just now, let's have another one, okay?" β
The director can't say anything, after all, except for Lu Qinghua, Cui Lingyun is the biggest coffee here.
"Okay, let's do it again, the crying scene of the maid Ning'er just now is repeated."
Fortunately, the mood was still there, and I quickly entered the play.
"The queen's illness is really beyond the treatment of the minister."
The Imperial Physician shook his head, his face full of sadness.
I cried and didn't believe it, and took the arm of the imperial doctor and knelt on the ground, "Imperial doctor, you must have some other way, slave begs you to ....."
"Miss Ning'er." The imperial doctor said helplessly: "It's not that the official doesn't want to heal, it's really ......."
As he spoke, the imperial doctor suddenly seemed to think of something, and his eyes suddenly lit up and he spoke: "There is!" β
"Ahem, ahem."
A sudden cough came from the bed, and my eyes sank.
You don't have to guess, you know that it's Cui Lingyun, a woman.
"Director." Li Wen walked up before the director got angry, "I'm really sorry, Mr. Cui has actually been a little cold in the past few days, and today's mood is really not right." β
Cui Lingyun on the bed got up, her eyes were full of tears, as if everyone was bullying her.
"Director......
Seeing this, where can the director be angry.
"Lingyun, what's wrong with you?"
I don't know if I'm thinking too much about it, but I always feel that Cui Lingyun seems to be looking at me.
"It's nothing, it's just ...... I caught a cold. β
It's all from the crew, how could the director not know what Cui Lingyun's eyes mean.
"Is it because of the scene when you fell into the water last time?"
Everyone still remembers that last time Cui Lingyun fell into the water "because of me".
Sure enough, as soon as the director's words came out, the eyes of the people around me fell on me.
For a moment, I couldn't move.
The director coughed twice, and said helplessly: "In that case, we will make up the filming of this scene in the future, and shoot something else first." β
Cui Lingyun's meaning couldn't be more obvious, she just didn't want me to shoot this scene well.
It's hard to get into the mood when you cry, and once you're in the mood, it's hard to get in again after being interrupted.
Cui Lingyun just wanted me to embarrass me.
With a sigh, I turned around and went back to the rest place in the corner, looking for the water I had brought with me to drink.
"Orange juice."
Lu Qinghua's voice came from overhead, and I looked up and saw him coming over with a bottle of orange juice.
"Xiaopeng squeezed it with his own hands."
Some didn't know whether to pick it up, and when some hesitated, the smile on Lu Qinghua's face became a little bigger, "Don't you like it?" β
The ghost sent the gods, I shook my head and took the things from Lu Qinghua's hand.
"No, I love it."
Naturally, Lu Qinghua sat next to me, "Do you have time after a while?" β
My heart suddenly mentioned.
Just brought me orange juice, and now you want to ask me out, what is this Lu Qinghua doing?
Could it be that he also has some intentions?
As if to see what I was thinking, Lu Qinghua explained: "Don't worry, I'm just here to play against the scene, didn't the director just say that tomorrow I will shoot the scene between the two of us." β
I was relieved that this was the case.
"Need a play?"
I remember that Lu Qinghua has always disliked playing against actresses, because when she debuted, an actress ate Lu Qinghua's tofu in the name of playing.
Lu Qinghua nodded, "Tomorrow's scene is very important." β
I laughed, "Shouldn't the play with the heroine be the most important thing for you?" β
"Well, it's important to you."
For a moment, I heard the sound of my own heartbeat.
Important to me?
Lu Qinghua in front of him had deep eyes, put away and looked at me with a smile.
This kind of seriousness makes me a little uncomfortable.
After a long time, I was the first to break the silence and stand up, "I, I'll go to the bathroom." β
Finally escaped from Lu Qinghua's side, my heart trembled slightly, and I couldn't calm down when I looked at myself in the mirror.
"Why ......"
Why do I always feel that Lu Qinghua's feelings for me are not ordinary?
Is it because of Jiang Xiyi?
Lu Qinghua was the only person present who knew the relationship between me and Jiang Xiyi except Cui Lingyun.
"It must be because of this." Looking at myself in the mirror, my eyes were a little firmer.
I don't want to meet Lu Qinghua again, so I try to follow other actors in the filming after that, as long as there are people around, Lu Qinghua will rarely come over.
I didn't notice the loneliness in Lu Qinghua's eyes.
After the director finished filming and finished shooting, I hurriedly took my things and went out, not wanting to meet Lu Qinghua again.
It was already nine o'clock in the evening when we got back to Tidewater Bay.
"Sister-in-law Zhang, do you have anything to eat, I'm so hungry."
The voice was stuck in my throat, and I looked at Jiang Xiyi sitting at the dining table, and my body suddenly froze.
"You, are you just eating now?"
There was dinner on the table, and the tableware in front of Jiang Xiyi was still clean, and it seemed that he hadn't started eating yet.
Raising his eyes and glancing at me indifferently, Jiang Xiyi did not speak, but picked up the tableware.
"Miss Song."
Sister-in-law Zhang came over and took the handbag in my hand and whispered, "Mr. just came back not long ago, I shouldn't have eaten." β
I nodded and walked over to the table.
Thinking about what happened in the office today, my hand holding the chopsticks tightened, "You didn't mean it...... Do you want to go out with Miss Choi at night? β
Jiang Xi looked up and looked at me with a cold gaze.
"You like me out of here?"
This is a strange question, what does it have to do with me that he can't get out?
It's just that I never dared to say this, so I thought about it and said, "I'm just a little curious." β
"I didn't promise her today."
After thinking about it, it seems that it is.
With Jiang Xiyi here, I was always a little uncomfortable eating, Jiang Xiyi didn't eat much, and quickly put down the chopsticks in his hand.
"You're not eating?"
Jiang Xi didn't move, and only glanced at me for a long time and went upstairs.
I felt strange, but thinking that Jiang Xi was not there, I could finally feast, and I couldn't help but smile happily on my face.
After dinner, I was ready to go upstairs to rest.
"Miss Song." Sister-in-law Zhang came over, "I saw that the young master didn't seem to have eaten anything just now." β
I glanced upstairs and bowed slightly, "It seems to be, maybe I don't have much appetite." β
Sister-in-law Zhang frowned slightly, "The young master's stomach disease has been bad again and again, I'm a little worried, I boiled the porridge just now, why don't you serve it to the young master." β
I wanted to nod, but thinking about the scene in the office today, I hesitated.
"Sister-in-law Zhang." I squeezed out a smile, "Otherwise, you might as well send it......"
As if she hadn't heard me at all, Sister-in-law Zhang put the bowl in my hand and pushed me up.
I had no choice but to go upstairs with a bowl.
There was no one in the study, so I went to Jiang Xiyi's room and hesitated for a long time before knocking on the door.
"Come in."
Just hearing Jiang Xiyi's voice, I couldn't help but start to get nervous.
"Xi Yi."
Jiang Xiyi, who was in the room, was sitting on the sofa in a nightgown and was reading documents, and when he saw me coming in, he had no expression on his face.
"Sister-in-law Zhang said, you didn't eat anything at night, so I sent some porridge......"
Before I finished speaking, I heard Jiang Xiyi's sneer.
"You're really going to great lengths to please me."
Please?
I was stunned for a moment, a little confused about what this meant.
But since the things had already been delivered, I naturally didn't need to stay, and put the bowl on the table next to Jiang Xiyi.
Just as I was about to get up and leave, Jiang Xiyi grabbed my wrist and dragged me to the front.
Because I didn't stand firm, I fell on Jiang Xiyi.
"Xi ......"
I didn't finish speaking, because Jiang Xiyi pinched my chin, and I couldn't make a sound in pain.
"Sometimes I really want to open your heart and take a good look at whether there is any emotion in it."
Be all abroad!
This man is simply inexplicable!
I don't know where the strength came from, I stretched out my hand and pushed Jiang Xiyi away.
Standing up straight, I looked at Jiang Xiyi in front of me, "I'm just here to deliver a bowl of porridge to you." β
The mockery in the man's eyes did not disappear, and he looked at me with a cold snort.
"Just, send a bowl of porridge?"
Not wanting to continue listening to Jiang Xiyi's yin and yang strange voice, I took a deep breath and left, and rushed directly to the room.
The next day, I had two huge dark circles under my eyes.
It's all Jiang Xiyi, he said such inexplicable things last night, and I couldn't figure out what offended him after thinking about it for a while.
"Miss Song is up?"
There was no voice from Jiang Xiyi downstairs, so I breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at Sister-in-law Zhang.
Sister-in-law Zhang went to the kitchen to bring out breakfast, and took out a business card from her pocket and gave it to me.
"This was given to me by the young master before he left in the morning, and he asked me to hand it over to Miss Song, saying that he asked you to go and meet her in the morning."
Business card?
I took it and saw a few big words on it - Global Agent Zhuoya.
My heart suddenly brightened, and I understood why Jiang Xiyi had to talk to me in such a tone last night.
