About an hour later, when Su Shengjing saw that Su Jiu was still filming, he could no longer stand it.
What is wrong with the director? Why isn’t he letting her rest after filming for so long? What if she is tired?
She is still new at this. Is this how directors work new actors? Do they think I wouldn’t care?!
Su Shengjing’s heart ached for his daughter. He wished he could make her stop and rest immediately. He had completely forgotten that when he was filming, he often filmed for hours and even most of the day. Sometimes, he would film even if he hadn’t slept at night. He had even filmed in locations where the weather conditions were harsh.
At that time, he did not feel sorry for himself. However, now that Su Jiu had run only a little over schedule, he could not stand it.
So he took out his phone and called Han Jiani. “Hello? Look at this child. She’s been filming for more than an hour. Can’t you let her rest for a while? I can’t stand it anymore!”
Han Jiani laughed on the other end. “What’s wrong? It’s not like you haven’t acted before. You know that if actors are not tired, they might as well continue filming. Little Jiu didn’t even ask to rest, right? What’s the hurry?”
“Well, of course, your heart won’t ache if she’s not your daughter!”
Han Jiani laughed. “Why wouldn’t my heart ache? I’ve always treated Little Jiu as my biological daughter, okay? Alright, I’ll call the director and ask him to stop for a while.”
“That’s more like it.” Su Shengjing was satisfied. After hanging up, he saw the director receive a call.
When he was finished with the call, the director looked a little embarrassed and started to shout for the actors to stop.
Su Jiu was still acting comfortably when she suddenly heard the director shout, “Cut!” She looked at him in confusion.
The director smiled and said, “Little Jiu, Xia Yi, you’ve been filming for so long. Are you tired? Do you want to rest for a while?”
The director had to listen to Han Jiani. After all, she was Movie King Han’s biological sister, and he couldn’t afford to offend her. Moreover, the Han family’s company had invested in this movie. Naturally, he would listen to her.
“Director, I can continue filming. Xia Yi, how are you? Can you continue?” Su Jiu wanted to finish filming early so that she could go back early. She basically called Rong Si every evening, and she didn’t want their calls to get delayed because of the filming. She just wanted to finish filming her scenes quickly.
Xia Yi did not feel tired. When working with Su Jiu, he felt they seemed to have some kind of tacit understanding. The scenes just now had basically been shot in one go. He had never worked with a girl so easily before. He was happy to continue filming.
Xia Yi also nodded. “I can continue.”
The director was embarrassed. This… Although he was asking the actors to rest, the actors didn’t want to rest. What could he do?
After some thought, he said, “Let’s rest first. We’ll continue filming later.”
Su Jiu could only let it go and walk out of the set. Xia Yi followed her and smiled. “I feel very comfortable filming with you. I’m completely in the zone. I haven’t had such an experience before.”
Su Jiu returned a polite smile and said humbly, “Perhaps, I was just working with your good acting.”
“You’re a good actor, too.” Xia Yi smiled again. “It’s break time now. Would you like something to drink? I’ll get my assistant to buy it. There’s a shop nearby that makes pretty good milk tea.”
Milk tea?
I would like that.
Su Jiu was about to ask his assistant to bring her a cup when one of the crew members walked over and handed her a cup of milk tea. “Miss Su, this is for you.”
Su Jiu was stunned. It can’t be. I only just thought of it.
And milk tea wasn’t the only thing. The assistant also handed her a bag of snacks, with all her usual favorites.
