On the set of 'Mega Beast'. Amongst a forest in the mountains.
Chen Xingyan hid in a quiet corner from day to night, practicing her acting in order to getaccustomed to the cameras.
Deep down, she still felt that she was more suited to being a stunt double in this lifetime. But, to give herself the ability to protect others, she founda newmotivation to face the cameras.
So, every morning, she arrived first on set. And every night, she was the last to go to sleep. Impressively, due to her amateur skills in medicine, Chen Xingyan quickly made a name for herself on set. Whether it was the director or one of the staff member's, whenever someone had any aches and pains, they would immediately turn to her for relief.
That night, Chen Xingyan used the break between scenes to look through her script. Because the forest was extremely cold and filming carried on into the night, the crew did not return to the hotel. So, as Lin Sheng finished filming and spotted Chen Xingyan huddled up in her chair, he immediately grabbed a blanket from his assistant and covered her with it from behind.
Chen Xingyan turned around and smiled at the sight of Lin Sheng, "Thank you, Sheng Ge."
"You're quite cheeky. You're aware that you make a lot of mistakes, so you've been doing favors for the director to make up for it. No wonder we haven't heard him scold anyone." Lin Sheng glanced at the director. It was obvious that the extra clothes and blanket on his body were from Chen Xingyan. "When it comes to acting, you are miles from Tangning, but when it comes to people, you are capable of coaxing even a simple props assistant. This is also considered a skill."
Chen Xingyan felt a little guilty...
"Sheng Ge..."
"You don't actually need to practice in front of the mirror every day and do favors for people. You simply need to follow your instincts," Lin Sheng stopped her from continuing. Before she even attended her audition, he had already looked through her information. The reason why he was so certain about picking Chen Xingyan was because the character was difficult for others, but he knew Chen Xingyan could do it effortlessly.
"Hehe, thank you, Sheng Ge."
"It's weird, you're cheeky and opportunistic. I usually despise people like you. But, for some reason, I can't seem to hate you. I think it's just like I said earlier, this is a skill of yours. Keep it up," Lin Sheng said before he patted her on the shoulder and left.
Chen Xingyan hugged the blanket on her body and jumped up in joy after receiving acknowledgment from Lin Sheng.
Everyone on set looked at her curiously after hearing her cheer, including An Zihao who had been standing in the distance for quite some time.
An Zihao did not approach her. He simply held onto the blanket in his hands and left; he had already seen the way that Lin Sheng cared about Chen Xingyan.
However, he misunderstood that Chen Xingyan was jumping in joy because of the way Lin Sheng treated her.
So, An Zihao did not notify Chen Xingyan of his visit. He simply snuck in and snuck back out.
Chen Xingyan did not see An Zihao, but after returning home from a long night, she noticed a bowl of fresh lychee in the middle of her apartment; An Zihao had definitely visited.
So, she gave him a phone call, "Stop acting chivalrous. Why didn't you tell me that you dropped by?"
"Because I don't want to," An Zihao replied in a lazy tone as he lay in bed.
"Why are you acting so weird early in the morning. Go die," Chen Xingyan yelled before hanging up the phone angrily.
An Zihao flipped over in bed. Even he didn't understand why he was acting so moody around Chen Xingyan.
But, he felt it was for the best...
...
Two afternoons later.
Tangning was keeping Mo Ting company at Hai Rui. Mo Ting was to catch a flight at 5pm that afternoon and he wasn't going to be by her side that night.
