At the production crew.
When Yan Jin saw Jiang Ling’er, he called her to the side.
She looked at him hesitantly and asked, “What’s the matter, Director Yan? Don’t be shy.”
“Ling’er, there’s something we need to discuss,” he said after some silence.
Jiang Ling’er suddenly had a bad feeling.
“What is it?” she asked.
“Yesterday,” said Yan Jin with a smile. “Didn’t you miss five scenes with Pan Yueyue? Do you think you can make up for it today?”
Jiang Ling’er and Wen Nuan looked at each other.
Wen Nuan asked in agitation, “Why reshoot? Who asked for this? Yesterday, Ling’er already finished acting. Didn’t she do well? You even praised her.”
He replied, “I was the one who wanted you guys to reshoot. After all, I don’t think we should miss out on this role.”
Wen Nuan sighed in relief, glad Li Yu wasn’t the one who asked for it.
Jiang Ling’er sneered. Pan Yueyue had made things difficult for Jiang Ling’er, and now she wanted her to take a step back? Sorry, but she didn’t have time for certain people.
“Director Yan, do you think I won’t get angered today?” Jiang Ling’er asked.
“No, after all, it’s all for the sake of filming, right?” said Yan Jin awkwardly. “Please give me some face and give her another chance.”
Jiang Ling’er smiled in disdain, “Director Yan, you already saw it yesterday; Pan Yueyue made things difficult for me. Isn’t that more than enough enough? So, she wants to fight head-on with me today, huh? Nuannuan, let’s go. We won’t be reshooting today.”
Yan Jin was speechless.
His assistant, Little Zhang, noticed that something was wrong.
“Miss Jiang, we won’t be able to explain to CEO Li if you do this,” he immediately said.
Jiang Ling’er’s expression turned cold.
Jiang Ling’er asked, “What do you mean? Was he the one who asked for this?”
“No,” he replied. “I just wanted to say that if you leave now, we won’t be able to shoot today’s scenes.”
“What, you don’t want to tell CEO Li that I’m taking today off?” she said disdainfully. “Then, shouldn’t you tell him about the girl who’s always late and makes everyone waste time waiting for her to improve, and then ask her to get lost?”
Her powerful aura rendered Little Zhang speechless.
She looked at him and coldly continued, “Never use CEO Li to pressure me. Do you understand?”
Little Zhang immediately nodded.
He didn’t expect Jiang Ling’er to have such a difficult temper.
Yan Jin frowned and said,” You have such a bad temper. You should forgive others when you can. After all, giving people a chance is also giving yourself one. Don’t you understand this principle?”
“What does my temper have to do with you?” she retorted. “I won’t let go of the people who step on me. What more do you want to say? Since I’m not giving others a chance, I’m not giving myself one, either. Is that illegal?”
“Don’t think you’re CEO Li-” said Yan Jin angrily.
Before he could finish his words, she interrupted, “I’m sorry, but I’m not!”
Wen Nuan also said with a serious look, “Director Yan, we won’t be returning for the reshoots. If you think Pan Yueyue must be in this scene, then my artist can withdraw.”
Little Zhang carefully said, “Please, calm down. There’s no need to make it sound so serious. Everyone worked so hard in the past; this is only a few mere scenes. It’s really unnecessary for you to levee over this.”
Wen Nuan bluntly replied, “Although we’re newbies and can’t resist Pan Yueyue’s thick legs, if we reshoot today, she’ll be even more demanding in the future. Rather than being stepped on, it’s better we retreat now.”
Jiang Ling’er wouldn’t give in this time. Moreover, Yan Jin was being unreasonable.
“I didn’t handle this matter well,” he said with a wave of his hand. “Then, we won’t do any reshoots. Ling’er, hurry up and change your clothes. We’ll start filming soon.”

At the shooting site.
Pan Yueyue got her script from d the script from Little Zhang and flipped through it, her expression turning ugly.
She said, “Little Zhang, is there a mistake in the script? I haven’t reshot yesterday’s five scenes, so why is this script already here?”
Before Little Zhang could reply, Yan Jin unhappily said, “What are you dreaming about?”
“Didn’t you say we could reshoot?” Pan Yueyue asked after a pause.
“And I’m saying now that we won’t, do you understand?” he said coldly.
Pan Yueyue didn’t give him a good stare.
She coldly said, “I missed five scenes yesterday. Can’t I make up for it?”
Seeing her unrelenting look, Yan Jin became even angrier.
He replied, “It’s not that we didn’t film yesterday, but we just deleted those five scenes. If you can’t film well today, then I’ll delete all of your scenes. I don’t mind doing that.”
She was taken aback, putting on a pitiful look.
She said, “Director Yan, I really can’t accept my scenes being deleted for no
reason..’
