Chapter 229: You Kicked Him!
Translator: Zayn_
“It’s so late at night. We only need to shoot two scenes, but you’ve delayed it for so long. The entire crew is working overtime with you! Can’t you be more careful?”
“Or are you just a blockhead and can’t understand human language at all?”
Everyone could hear Luo Hongqing’s reproach.
Zhu Jiao lowered her head and apologized from time to time, as if she knew she was wrong.
However, the fingernail marks on one side of her index finger had already turned purple.
After Song Qingyou was ready, the fourth shoot began.
But this time, after Song Qingyou fell into the water, Zhu Jiao took another bad take.
Luo Hongqing was so angry that he swore. “Zhu Jiao, if you don’t want to shoot, then get lost. You’ve wasted so much time. Are you a pig?”
Zhu Jiao immediately apologized. “I’m sorry, Director Luo. I know I was wrong.”
“I was really scared by that cat, so I was a little nervous and didn’t really get into character. I’m sorry, I’ll definitely do a good job next time!”
Song Qingyou swam back to the shore and looked at her with a dark expression.
“Qingyou, are you okay?”
“Do you want to continue?”
Luo Hongqing turned to Song Qingyou.
His attitude towards Song Qingyou was getting better and better, the complete opposite of how he treated Zhu Jiao.
Song Qingyou nodded. “I can continue.”
She had already wasted so much time. If she did not finish filming this scene, she would not be satisfied.
Unfortunately, Zhu Jiao did not seem to care about the gazes of the people around her. After that, she had NG’d for more than ten times, wasting more than two hours of everyone’s time.
Song Qingyou had changed her clothes countless times.
Most people had lost their patience.
Zhong Jiayin said goodbye and left.
Chen Lan wanted to persuade Song Qingyou to tell Director Luo to stop filming.
But Song Qingyou didn’t agree.
Zhao Yingnan was supposed to appear in the second scene tonight. After waiting for so long, she still didn’t get to see the second scene. Her manager also advised her to leave quickly.
Zhao Yingnan looked worriedly at Song Qingyou. She couldn’t resist the manager’s coaxing and pestering, so she planned to go to the bathroom and leave.
However, not long after she entered, she heard footsteps coming from outside.
Zhu Jiao’s voice followed.
Her voice wasn’t loud, but she was right next to Zhao Yingnan, so she could hear her clearly.
“Of course I did it on purpose. If my acting was really that bad, Director Luo wouldn’t have wanted me even if 1 brought money into the production.”
“You don’t know how many times that Song girl jumped into the water. She’s in such a sorry state. How funny. She still wants to finish filming this scene tonight. Isn’t she letting me do whatever I want?”
“Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing. Did you get someone to record the part where Song Qingyou’s cat jumped out? When the time comes, can’t 1 just say that I was scared by a cat?”
“Why do you care if she gets sick from jumping into the water so many times? It’s better if she dies of illness! Didn’t she say that she could even defeat a tsunami? What’s wrong with jumping into the water? If you make yourself look like you’re about to die by jumping into the water, then we’ll say that Man vs. Wild faked it!”
“You mean Song Qingyou and the president of Jiangyuan Corporation? Heh, impossible! The Jiang family is a legitimate wealthy family. Who does Song Qingyou think she is?”
“Besides, my backer is much more reliable than her. President Shao still has a lot of say in the entertainment industry. He will definitely help me.”
“Alright, that’s it. Stop nagging. Otherwise, if I stay in the bathroom for too long, I’ll be scolded by that stupid director again.”
Zhao Yingnan heard the other party hang up the phone and left. After a while, she got up and went out.
Before the filming started, Zhao Yingnan quickly found Song Qingyou.
“Qingyou, I heard Zhu Jiao talking on the phone just now. She said that she was deliberately making bad takes. Why don’t you stop filming tonight…”
“This is the last time.” Song Qingyou raised her finger.
Of course, she knew that Zhu Jiao did it on purpose. However, she was also a little selfish. In addition, she did not want to give up halfway no matter what. That was why she had endured until now.
If she gave up on her job just because something happened, she might as well quit.
Zhao Yingnan’s face was full of worry. “You said it. This is the last time. Don’t be too stubborn… It’s best to rest tomorrow after finishing today.”
Song Qingyou nodded as she drank the hot water Chen Lan brought over.
The cat bag was quite far away, so Jiang Zhihan couldn’t hear what they were talking about.
However, he could not wait any longer. When Chen Lan stopped staring at him, he quietly opened the cat carrier.
However, he didn’t know how to stop Song Qingyou.
No, perhaps he should stop the culprit.
Since Zhu Jiao wanted Song Qingyou to fall into the water so badly, he would let her have a taste of it herself!
In any case, now wasn’t the time to be calculative about what would happen if he, Song Qingyou’s cat, threw Zhu Jiao into the water.
Jiang Zhihan immediately took action.
According to his personality, he usually wouldn’t argue with such a petty person. He would just let his assistant handle it.
However, he was a cat now, and the tablet that could contact Fang Yan was not with him, so he could only use the methods he could.
In the dark of the night, the cat’s figure flew so fast that most of the crew did not notice it.
Jiang Zhihan hid in the dark and waited for Zhu Jiao to approach the lake.
He didn’t have to wait long before this opportunity came.
After Luo Hongqing lectured Zhu Jiao, he asked her to stand by the lake and find the feeling to avoid another bad take.
Zhu Jiao turned her head, her apologetic expression turning indifferent.
She was still calculating, but Luo Hongqing had completely lost his patience. In order to prevent herself from being replaced, this time, it was better to be serious!
Zhu Jiao, who was deep in thought, did not notice that a cat was slowly approaching her feet.
Jiang Zhihan found the right angle, kicked his hind legs, and instantly jumped up.
“All!”
Zhu Jiao was so frightened by the black shadow that suddenly jumped out that she screamed. Then, she staggered a few times and almost fell into the lake!
Jiang Zhihan didn’t expect to fail, so he wanted to give it another push.
However, Zhu Jiao’s reaction was not slow. Before she could stand still, she forcefully raised her leg and kicked the cat beside her into the lake.
A loud splash came from the lake.
The people who were close to the production team all gathered around.
“What happened?”
“What happened?”
“What fell down?”
“Who saw it just now?”
Zhu Jiao thought of the cat she had kicked down and a glint flashed across her eyes.
“N-nothing. I was just scared. Perhaps some rock fell into the lake…”
The lights of the production team did not shine in the middle of the lake, so they could only see the surroundings clearly.
Zhu Jiao wanted to use this to confuse the public.
She had just seen it clearly. That cat was the one that Song Qingyou had.
By the time Song Qingyou came back, the cat might already be dead!
Hehe, even if Song Qingyou knew it was her, it would be too late!
The more Zhu Jiao thought about it, the happier she became. She even wanted someone to help her and pretend to be afraid.
But she had underestimated Song Qingyou’s eyesight.
When Zhu Jiao was in trouble, she immediately looked over. After she was not sure if it was her cat that fell, she deliberately glanced at the cat carrier.
So, while Zhu Jiao was still pretending to be pitiful, Song Qingyou had already rushed over.
“Zhizhi!”
“You kicked him!”
Her tone was firm.
When the others heard this, they realized that it was Song Qingyou’s cat.
“Zhizhi? Oh, it’s your cat?”
