When Mu Xi saw him, she immediately welcomed him warmly. “CEO Mu, you’re early today. However, Shishi’s scenes haven’t been completed yet. There were a number of NGs along the way as the takes weren’t ideal. The director had no choice but to re-shoot.”
“NG?”
“Uh huh. I’m not sure why, perhaps she’s not in the right frame of mind. Furthermore, the mountain road was steep. Even though we took preventive measures, it’s still exhausting to be shooting all day. Maybe she was carsick. She threw up several times and that caused quite a bit of delay.”
Threw up?
Mu Yazhe furrowed his brow.
He recalled that she was not one to get motion sickness.
Unless they were in a racer’s car. However, if they drove the car themselves and recorded it, special effects could often be used. All they needed to do was capture a few action shots and render them. How could they get carsick at such a slow speed?
He could not help but wonder if she had vomited because she was feeling unwell.
“It’s okay, I’ll wait for her.”
The man thought no more of it. He sat down on a chair by the side.
Mu Xi stood by helplessly and could not help feeling uneasy.
She knew very well that, given her relationship with Shishi, there was no need for her to be so fearful and respectful toward Mu Yazhe.
However, for some reason, when she faced this man, her innate servility emerged involuntarily.
Mu Xi cautiously walked to the side and sized up Mu Yazhe. She probed, “CEO Mu, are you feeling warm? Are you thirsty? Do you want a glass of water?”
“No, I’m fine.”
He had had his afternoon tea, so he was not thirsty right now.
Mu Yazhe took another look at her and sniggered. “You don’t have to be so nervous.”
“I…”
Mu Xi said tentatively, “I don’t know why, but I feel nervous whenever I see CEO Mu!”
Mu Yazhe touched his face and muttered suspiciously, “Could it be that I look too fierce?”
“No, no!” Mu Xi waved her hands repeatedly and said uneasily, “CEO Mu is very amiable, and you look youthful and energetic when you smile… You’re very personable and warm towards me, but…”
Mu Yazhe’s lips twitched as he fell into speechlessness.
Why did it sound like he was the head of a nation?
Mu Yazhe was incredulous. “You’ll be fine just sitting quietly by the side.”
“Okay…”
When Mu Xi heard this, she immediately sat down by the side. The way she sat very still and upright made her look like an obedient student in elementary school, and him, too cold and stern.
Half an hour later, Yun Shishi finally completed her scenes.
The director eventually gave special pardon. Even though this scene was unsatisfactory, her condition wasn’t going to get any better if she continued filming like this. It would be better to re-shoot when she was in good condition.
Anyway, she was almost done with all her scenes, and filming would be over for her very soon. There was no rush.
After they got off the set, the director walked over and asked her, “Shishi, you’ve not been yourself recently. Are you feeling unwell?”
“I…”
Yun Shishi furrowed her brow and shook her head in resignation. “Maybe it’s because my schedule has been too hectic the last few days and I’m too tired.”
“You must take care of yourself!” The director smiled. “Actually, you don’t have to rush those reality shows. I think that the foundation of an actor is acting itself. Only by focusing on acting can you go far! I think that being an actor is a very noble profession. However, they’ve really made a mess of the entertainment industry now.”
