The director was not Jun Shiling. How could he dare to let Su Yueran lie on the ground like this? He hurriedly went forward and helped Su Yueran up. “Yueran, are you okay? Are you okay? I’ll call the doctor for you.”
Su Yueran shook her head. “It’s nothing, Director. I just slipped. Go in quickly and don’t delay the filming.”
After the director confirmed with Su Yueran again, he turned around and walked in.
Behind her, Su Yueran clenched her fists tightly. As she touched the skin, she subconsciously sucked in a cold breath.
Glancing at Jun Shiling’s departing figure, Su Yueran’s expression was calm as she turned to leave.
In the production team, all the staff were fully cooperating with Xia Wanyuan’s scene.
The female lead of “Eldest Princess” did not completely use Xia Wanyuan’s name. Instead, she turned into Xia Anyi.
An Yi was the princess title in Xia Wanyuan’s previous life.
At this moment, flames soared into the sky and battle intent filled the air.
The soldiers all over the mountains were charging down the mountain with weapons in their hands.
“Princess An Yi, you’re the last hope of the Great Xia Dynasty. Please retreat first, in case…” His subordinate was wearing iron armor, and his clothes were stained with a large amount of dried blood. He choked and could not continue.
At this moment, they were already in a hopeless situation. The enemy had 30,000 elite soldiers, while they only had 3,000 left. Although everyone said that the number of soldiers was not important, but the quality, in the face of such a huge difference in numbers, the morale of the soldiers below wavered. How could they have any morale?
Xia Anyi was wearing a general’s clothes and holding a spear as she sat on her horse.
Although it was night, the flames on the battlefield illuminated the entire world red. Xia Anyi’s eyes seemed to have fire.
“There’s no need to persuade me anymore.” Xia Anyi reached out to stop her subordinate. “The morale of the army is already scattered. If I leave, it’s equivalent to letting you die.”
The sound of the enemy’s horses’ hooves was getting closer and closer. There seemed to be an anxious cry in the wind. Everyone’s faces were very solemn, and some of the soldiers even looked defeated.
Xia Anyi gripped her spear tightly and shouted into the wind, “Everyone, listen to me! We’re trapped here today. The worst outcome is death! Do you want to die?”
The soldiers said in unison, “No!”
“Okay.” In the silent army, only Xia Anyi’s voice was firm and forceful. “I don’t want to either. Today, all of us will risk it. If we lose, I, Xia Anyi, will accompany you to sleep in the mountains and rivers! If we win…”
At this point, Xia Anyi’s eyes were as firm as iron. She waved her spear. “If we win, everyone will be divided according to their contributions. Those who survive and kill their way out will be conferred the title of nobility and enjoy wealth. If you sacrifice yourself here, your descendants will inherit the title and land!”
In this era a thousand years ago, the difference between nobles and generals and ordinary people was more than heaven and earth.
Now, Xia Anyi told them that as long as they fought and won, their family would prosper for generations.
They might never have such an opportunity in their lives on the battlefield!
Immediately, everyone’s eyes lit up. They wanted to live, wealth, and fame!
“Kill! Kill! Kill!” Without needing Xia Anyi to say another word, the soldiers’ morale was high, and the wind was filled with everyone’s cold killing intent.
Xia Anyi glanced around in satisfaction. Her face was stained from the battle, and her robe was already tattered. She held the reins and the spear in her hand as she stood at the front of the team. The wind lifted the hair on her forehead, reflecting the fiery red light in her eyes.
There was relief in her eyes, a hidden worry, the gentleness and attachment of thinking of her siblings at home, and the courage to advance bravely without fear of death.
At this moment, the entire production team was infected by Xia Wanyuan’s performance.
There were clearly no enemy soldiers around, nor was there a moment of life and death struggle. There were only three or four actors beside Xia Wanyuan.
The other enemy soldiers and her soldiers were only a green curtain. After the post-production special effects were completed, the soldiers would appear.
There was clearly nothing, but everyone could truly feel the sorrow and courage of a great enemy. When Xia Wanyuan raised her arms and shouted, everyone felt heroic.
If they were present, they would be willing to fight until the last moment and gamble with their lives for a chance to live and for a chance to completely bring their family into the open.
After filming, the director had already shouted for it to end, but Xia Wanyuan still stood on the spot. Her eyes were lowered, hiding the expression on her face in the night.
Jun Shiling walked over, grabbed Xia Wanyuan’s hand, and brought her away from the filming scene.
Xia Wanyuan quietly let him bring her away. The moonlight shone faintly on their backs.
In the car, Jun Shiling pulled Xia Wanyuan into his arms and stroked her hair comfortingly.
Xia Wanyuan leaned on his shoulder. After a while, Jun Shiling heard a soft sob in his arms. Jun Shiling tightened his grip on her waist.
“In that battle, I was the only one who came out alive.” Xia Wanyuan’s sobbing voice sounded.
This scene was based on her previous life. That time, there was a traitor in their camp. The news of them sending troops was sold, and the reinforcements were cut off. They were in a desperate situation.
How could 30,000 against 3,000 be so easy? No matter how high their morale was, they could not defeat the elite cavalry.
In the end, everyone spontaneously used their flesh and blood to kill a way out for Xia Wanyuan.
One by one, the soldiers died and sent her out, inch by inch.
In the end, they finally held on until the reinforcements arrived, and the three thousand soldiers were already buried in the mountains and rivers.
After Xia Wanyuan returned, she fulfilled her promise. She gave the land to the families of the soldiers and inherited it for generations, but the lives of these people would forever stay on that tragic night.
Xia Wanyuan’s acting had always been an immersive performance. During the performance just now, in a daze, she returned to that night and saw those familiar soldiers, those people she had fought alongside.
Jun Shiling clenched his fists. He could feel Xia Wanyuan’s sorrow, but he was powerless.
In this era, he could give Xia Wanyuan everything she wanted.
However, he and the Xia Wanyuan of her previous life had crossed nearly a thousand years. That was a chasm he could not cross.
At this moment, it was useless to say anything. Jun Shiling hugged Xia Wanyuan tighter and let her spread her emotions in his arms.
Xia Wanyuan’s sadness lasted the entire night until the next morning.
“Mommy, this is for you.” After breakfast, Xiao Bao mysteriously handed a small wooden box to Xia Wanyuan.
Xia Wanyuan opened it. It was a painting drawn by Xiao Bao. There was brilliant sunlight, a beautiful starry sky, beautiful roses, a cute panda, and a photo of their family.
The painting said, “I hope Mommy will always be happy. We all love you very much.”
A smile appeared on Xia Wanyuan’s face. She patted Xiao Bao’s head. “Thank you, Xiao Bao.”
Seeing that Xia Wanyuan was happier, Xiao Bao was also much happier. He chuckled. “Mommy, I’m going to school!”
Jun Shiling sent Xia Wanyuan to the set. “I’ll pick you up in the afternoon.” If Xia Wanyuan acted in this movie, she would easily fall into the emotions of the scene. He was worried.
Xia Wanyuan acknowledged and entered the filming base.
Not long after Xia Wanyuan entered the base, a limping figure walked over from the film studio not far away.
“It should be here. Why can’t I find it?” Lu Li looked at the address in her hand again.
After submitting her resume for so many days, she finally received a response. It was from a film company. They said that they were willing to let her try out a running job and the treatment the company gave was quite good.
After many twists and turns, Lu Li finally found the correct company location. However, looking at the beautiful building in front of her, Lu Li felt a little guilty. Such a beautiful renovation. Don’t tell me you think I don’t know how to dress up and don’t want me?
“Hello, hello. You must be Lu Li.” She was wandering around the door when a kind-looking middle-aged woman came out. She looked a little like Auntie Liu, who lived next door to Grandma. Lu Li immediately relaxed.
“Yes, I’m here for an interview.” Lu Li smiled at the middle-aged woman. It was as sweet as a pear filled with juice.
Seeing her smile, the middle-aged woman’s eyes lit up. “Come, come in with me. Let’s talk inside.”
Half an hour later, the middle-aged woman enthusiastically announced to Lu Li, “Congratulations, you’ve been accepted as an official employee of our company. This is the contract agreement. Take a look first.”
“Okay!” Finally finding her first job after graduation, Lu Li was so happy that she did not even care about her leg injury and almost jumped up in the office. She casually flipped through the contract. “Where do I sign? Here?”
“Yes.” The middle-aged woman handed over the pen and flipped to the last page of the contract. “Here, just sign it. The treatment will only be good and not bad.”
“Okay!” Lu Li did not suspect anything and signed happily.
Seeing that the signing process was completed, the middle-aged woman took the contract away. “Due to the fact that you’re a university student who has just graduated, the company has a two-month training period. The fees during the training period will be borne by the individual. Go to the finance department and pay the training fees now. A total of ten thousand yuan for two months of food and accommodation. When you officially enter the company, the money will be refunded to you.”
Lu Li was stunned. “Why is there a training period? You didn’t say anything just now?”
The middle-aged woman crossed her arms in front of her chest. “Which company doesn’t have a training period? It’s already very good that our company refunds your training fees after you joined. Go and ask other companies. Who will refund your training fees?”
Looking at the middle-aged woman’s angry expression, Lu Li bit her lip.
This person was not like Auntie Liu, who lived next door to my grandmother. Auntie Liu would not be so fierce.
