"Qiusheng, don't go against Tangning from now on. She's not as easy to deal with as we thought." Inside the hospital, Gu Heng sat beside Bai Qiusheng's bed and tried to convince him. "I've already thought about it carefully. From the moment she announced her comeback, she has gone from being a model to being an actress. She has done everything flawlessly and won so much applause. She didn't just rely on Mo Ting to back her up."
Bai Qiusheng remained silent. Perhaps, he still hadn't recovered from the thrilling scene he had just witnessed.
At this moment, he finally understood what it felt like to be scared...
"Let's focus on filming and stop going against her, OK?"
Bai Qiusheng hesitated for a moment before he finally nodded his head.
After hearing Bai Qiusheng agree, Gu Heng finally let out a sigh of relief. She was truly afraid of Tangning's meticulous mind. In fact, she didn't even know how Tangning found out and whether she knew more about the inside story. Tangning... was indeed scary.
...
The next morning, Bai Qiusheng and Gu Heng returned to the set. Wei An immediately approached them and asked, "Are you both OK?"
"I'm fine. I was just a little shocked," Bai Qiusheng replied calmly.
Tangning followed behind them, but she did not humiliate them again. She simply acted like nothing had happened.
So, as soon as filming was over, Gu Heng immediately went to look for Tangning and asked, "Why didn't you kill us off? You could have used the opportunity to replace us... "
Tangning glanced at Gu Heng and smiled, "I've made my stance clear from the start. I won't take the initiative to attack anyone. Since what happened yesterday is already in the past, there is no need to bring it up again."
"You may have had evil thoughts, but I didn't go easy on you. So, I have no right to chase you away."
"Plus, since Wei An was the one who chose the actors for this film, he must have his reasons. Even if it was for the sake of the film, I would not make a move again."
"I'm sure you all know why I was so ruthless yesterday. There won't be a next time."
"Everyone's job is to film a good film..."
"Plus, Gu Heng, for a couple to maintain their relationship, it's not about the outside world, it's about your own heart."
"Don't try to provoke me again. For the sake of my own safety, I will do anything."
After speaking, Tangning left with Song Yanshu, leaving Gu Heng trembling in fear... after hearing Tangning's words, she finally understood the difference between them.
She never imagined there was a woman like Tangning in the entertainment industry; a woman who clearly separated love and hate!
At this moment, she had to acknowledge Tangning's way of doing things, her attitude and everything about her...
…
When Tangning said she wouldn't bring it up, it was as if she had completely forgotten about it. She never hinted, humiliated or reminded him.
This made Gu Heng admire her even more. There were plenty of people that stood on the moral high ground, yet coerced others. But, Tangning didn't care at all!
The dangerous car racing scene was to be filmed again 2 days later. This time, Bai Qiusheng gave a serious demonstration and Tangning studied hard. Although there were a few NGs, the thrilling scene was finally completed with everyone's hard work.
During this time, Tangning bumped her head a few times, suffered from motion sickness a few times and vomited everything out. But, after 5 minutes of rest, she was able to recover.
It was from this moment onwards that Bai Qiusheng's attitude towards Tangning changed.
Some people were born with more talent than you, yet, they worked harder than you. So... you couldn't help but admire how others were able to receive better resources.
Afterwards, Gu Heng watched a video of Tangning's audition. In the end, she told Bai Qiusheng that she was completely convinced of her role.
"Ning Jie, it's almost President Mo's birthday. What present are you planning to give him? Do you want me to buy it for you? " Song Yanshu asked as she stood behind Tangning during a break in filming. She assumed Tangning wouldn't have time to prepare anything for herself during filming.
Tangning lowered her head and thought for a moment before shaking her head, "I will prepare it myself..."
"But, you don't even have time..."
"The things he wants can't be bought on the market," Tangning smiled as she turned and looked at Song Yanshu, "The next scene is about to start. I'm going to go get ready."
Song Yanshu looked at Tangning's back as she left and nodded her head in agreement. Mo Ting had everything he wanted, so no matter what he gave him, it wouldn't be a surprise...
But, two days before Mo Ting's birthday, Wei An notified Tangning that a big shot would be joining the cast. Although it was only a guest appearance, he requested everyone to cooperate.
At first, Tangning didn't quite understand what this meant until the man appeared on set.
In the film, the man was a retired police officer who was unkempt. Because he had injured someone when he was young, he was dismissed from the police force. But, he was good at investigating cases, so Tangning decided to ask him for help.
However, not only in the film, even in real life, the man was also unkempt. It was like, once he was put on the role, he had no intention of returning to his original appearance. So, no one on set knew who he was. Someone tried to find out who he was, but Wei An simply smiled and said there would be a surprise in store.
But, while the man could chat and laugh with everyone else, he only looked at Tangning with suspicion and distrust.
This made Tangning wonder if she had offended the man. But, from what she could remember, she had never interacted with the man before.
But, it had to be said, Tangning acknowledged the big shot that Wei An mentioned. Even though he was old, he was still able to act. From the day he arrived on set, he was already able to imitate the expressions of the entire cast. His acting skills were indeed those of a few decades of accumulation.
As the first few scenes were between Bai Qiusheng and the old man, Tangning did not have the chance to interact with him. But, the day before Mo Ting's birthday, Wei An notified Tangning that she would be filming a scene with the old man. The old man was very strict, so she had to be on high alert.
Afterwards, Tangning asked Wei An for a day off. But, somehow, the old man found out about it. As soon as he heard that he would be filming a scene with Tangning, he turned around and stormed off, "I hate people that ask for time off from filming. I'm not filming with her. Get someone else to do it."
"There are so many people waiting on set. What privilege does she need?"
"She can't even be considered an actress, yet she already knows how to act like a big shot."
The old man's words were straightforward. In front of Tangning and the entire crew, everyone felt extremely awkward.
But, Tangning did not get angry. She simply bowed and said, "I'm sorry, senior. Even if the sky were to fall down, I wouldn't ask for a day off. But, for this matter, I have to leave."
"Do you believe that I can get someone to replace you?"
"Tangning, why don't you..."
"Director Wei, I definitely need to ask for a day off. I can do anything in exchange for it," Tangning said sincerely.
Wei An nodded his head and waved his hand, "You can go."
"Thank you," Tangning nodded her head in thanks.
"Why did she ask for a day off?" Wei An asked confusedly. Didn't Tangning know that this was an opportunity for her to perform?
"I heard from Assistant Song that it's President Mo's birthday."
"Oh, no wonder." Wei An immediately understood. He looked at Elder Mo with a smile. Tangning had always put Mo Ting first. Old man, are you satisfied?
