Chapter 837 - 837: Friendly Reminder: Don ‘t Ever Challenge Su
The retake was scheduled for the next day. Because it was being filmed indoors, the requirements for natural light were not high.
In order to avoid the paparazzi, all the staff gathered at the venue at six in the morning.
Su Ji was sent here by Pei Huai. Last night, she…went back to the Xu family!
Pei Huai had only heard about yesterday’s incident and was worried. This morning, he went to the Xu family’s house to pick her up and bring her to set.
Yesterday afternoon, the atmosphere was very good. The air was dry and hot. As soon as Aunt Gong showed her head in the corridor, she immediately retreated without making any noise that would ruin the atmosphere. Later, Xiao Tong fell to the ground unsteadily, but he didn’t wake up. He rolled a few times on the tatami mat and finally fell asleep with his face on the ground.
Su Ji tugged at his sleeve to maintain her balance, and finally tore off a cufflink from his sleeve.
However, just as Pei Huai was about to carry Su Ji back to the room, Su Ji stopped him.
Pei Huai asked her why, and Su Ji said it was her period.
Pei Huai replied without thinking, “there’s still half a month.”
Su Ji added, “I’m tired. I don’t want to move.”
Looking at her tired face, he was silent for a long time. He placed his large hand on the top of her head and rubbed it. His voice was especially gentle. “Let’s go back to the room and get you to sleep.”
The two of them returned to the room, and the door closed behind them.
Xiao Tong was left alone in the living room, sleeping on the tatami like a corpse.
Su Ji did not want to hide the fact that she was pregnant from Pei Huai, but she could not find the right time to say it.
As the two of them were eating, if she suddenly said that she was pregnant, it was quite abrupt.
She had tried to test the waters a few times, but Pei Huai had always been resolute.
Later on, he even said that her dream had always been to be a DINK. He also said that he had mysophobia and obsessive-compulsive disorder. He could not stand the mess in his room, so he did not like children very much.
Su Ji felt that he deserved it.
He deserved to know about this a few days later.
Pei Huai sent her to the set and brought food and drinks for the staff. Then, he met up with Jin Fengze and Long Dahai.
Jin Fengze shook hands with him politely , while Long Dahai was even more enthusiastic.
Su Ji stood by the side and listened to their conversation. It was only then that she learned that the Pei Corporation had used an absolute advantage in bidding to squeeze out the previous main sponsor, successfully making Jin Fengze, who valued his reputation very much, go back on his word.
Now, Pei Huai was already the true financial backer of Qingqiu Tactics’, the biggest client.
She watched as the wealthy man chatted merrily with Director Jin and Assistant Director Long.
su Ji:
She should have guessed it.
The atmosphere on the other end of the line was relaxed. Pei Huai gave the favor that he needed to give to Jin Fengze. Before he left, he instructed Jin Fengze, “I’ll leave my fiancée in your hands.”
Su Ji, a “newcomer” who had gotten the role through her own efforts, had become a person with connections.
She felt pretty good
Jin Fengze’s reply was very intriguing. “CEO Pei, don’t worry. We started early today. I rented the venue for the whole day. Su Ji can have as many bad takes as she wants.”
It seemed that the performance of the original owner last time still left them with lingering fear.
There was still time before Su Ji started changing. Beside the car, she hugged Pei Huai and buried her face in his shirt as she leaned against him.
She woke up too early and was sleepy.
She was a little clingy.
Moreover, since it was officially announced, she was not afraid of others seeing it, so she openly showed her affection.
Her fiancé was attractive. As his official girlfriend, how could Su Ji remain calm when she looked at that face and body every day?
Pei Huai’s shirt had been newly dry-cleaned by the servant, and it smelled especially good.
Her action of hugging him was sudden. At that time, Pei Huai had one hand in his trousers pocket to take out his phone when he was suddenly hugged from the front. At this moment, he still kept one hand in his trousers pocket while the other hand went around Su Ji’s thin but well-defined shoulder. His strong arm hugged her tightly and pulled her towards him. He placed his chin on the top of her head and rubbed it gently.
After five minutes, pairs of jealous eyes almost pierced through the back of Su Ji’s head.
However, Su Ji was sleepy now and did not care about gaining Hatred Points.
After the staff finished decorating the venue, Su Ji returned to the dressing room to get changed. She brushed past an actor in the corridor, and the actor looked at her strangely.
Su Ji had filmed this scene before, so of course she knew this actor.
He was going to act as her confidant later and report to her about the Taoist Nobunaga’s actions. Then, Su Ji’s character would angrily smash the teacup on the ground, and the rest would be exactly the same as the original character’s performance.
The male actor had not changed into his night clothes, but the makeup on his face was done.
Because it was a special effect of a monster, it took a lot of time. There was also the reverse mold. The aquiline nose and thick forehead were all reverse molded in advance. Now, it was all plastered on the face, and then the black-purple lips were painted. It was quite difficult for him.
And because of all this hard work, the actor had some opinions about Su Ji.
After all, he was already very tired after putting on makeup for a few hours last time. However, the original owner had failed to take the shot and he was almost scratched by the teacup thrown by the original owner.
Yesterday, he had also come three hours in advance to do his makeup. Later, when he had just finished painting, he was informed that the shoot would be changed to today. The reason was still Su Ji.
And then today, in order to avoid the paparazzi, Director Jin had brought forward the filming time to six in the morning, causing him to come over at three in the morning to do his makeup!
The dark circles under her eyes did not need any makeup at all. They were naturally there. The delicate skin on his face was starting to crack from the repeated sticking of the mold. Coupled with his dark purple lips, it was extremely scary!
He had just seen Su Ji and her sugar daddy getting intimate through the window.
It was awesome to have a backer. Director Jin was not angry with her even though her acting was so terrible.
Why couldn’t she use the time she had to improve her acting skills?
Receiving the resentful look from the actor, Su Ji touched the tip of her nose and said politely, “I’m sorry. We’ll be taking one shot today, so I’ll let you finish early.”
However, the male actor snorted.
“You can finish it in one shot?” He randomly pointed at the inverted models on his face. “Then I’ll eat all these inverted models!”
After saying that, he snorted and arrogantly turned around to leave, turning to his own lounge next door.
Ai Meng came over with milk tea that CEO Pei had given her. Seeing this, she frowned. “What does he mean?”
Ai Yan’s gaze reminded her to keep her voice down and not cause trouble.
Then, two pairs of small eyes looked at Su Ji.
Su Ji was not angry.. She was just thinking about the stuff on the actor’s face…was it edible?
