Wang Ju turned his head.
Bo Yan frowned, his expression rather calm, “Director Wang, how about we clear the set? Although this scene doesn’t reveal much, she might be a bit nervous. Going over it again and again isn’t a solution. Let’s have everyone except the lighting and photography crew leave. After all, it’s her first time shooting this kind of scene, and she’s not quite used to it.”
It was common to clear a set when filming, but only for scenes with significant exposure, some male and female stars even going so far as to appear fully nude. Now… the scene was merely about hugging, kissing, and twisting around without even taking any clothes off; Ju hadn’t even considered the necessity of clearing the set for this kind of shooting.
He nodded, “That’s fine.’
Clearing the set wasn’t difficult; it just required an instruction.
When they were about to clear the set, Xia Siyu spoke up, “Wait a moment.”
Wang Ju turned his head, “Do you have any requests?”
Xia Siyu pointed at her face, “Director Wang, we’ve been shooting for four hours, and I haven’t really had a chance to touch up my makeup in the meantime. My hair is a mess now, my makeup is smeared, and I’m covered in sweat. Should I touch up my makeup first?”
She even wanted to take a bath and change clothes. After all, the weather was somewhat hot, and the dress sticking to her skin was quite uncomfortable.
Wang Ju glanced at her. Other than her lipstick being slightly smeared, her other makeup was waterproof, and although her face was visibly covered in sweat with strands of hair sticking to her face, it didn’t much affect her overall makeup.
As for the clothes, the black tight-fitting dress was indeed a bit soaked with sweat. But Wang Ju still nodded, “Let’s keep it as it is; I think it’s fine. No need to touch up your lipstick either.”
“Wait a minute.”
Bo Yan spoke up again, and with the third interruption, Wang Ju was somewhat speechless. He turned his head to ask, “Can you state all your requests at once, please?”
This time, Bo Yan looked seriously at Xia Siyu, his expression still rather cold, “Sorry, but this time my movements may be a bit rougher. If I offend you in any way, please forgive me. This is just work.”
Xia Siyu was taken aback, but she had noticed that Bo Yan had indeed been quite gentle earlier; his hands behaved perfectly, his body kept in check, even his kisses were disciplined. He seemed immersed in the role but didn’t exert any real force.
Even less so than the man he used to be.
But seeing his indifferent and disdainful demeanor now, she didn’t ponder much and went straight for the sarcasm, “You? Are you up for it?”
This teasing had a bit more of an edge to it; if they hadn’t been close, it would almost be considered offensive or even—sexual harassment.
If it were anyone else, it might be ok, but coming from Xia Siyu’s mouth, it was definitely not flirtation; it was mockery.
Sure enough, as soon as she said that, Bo Yan’s eyebrows immediately furrowed, and his lips pursed slightly.
Xia Siyu’s words put him in a position where he couldn’t respond well.
To say he was “very capable” would sound blatantly lewd, and no matter whether they were husband and wife or not, this was a workplace, and such language was totally inappropriate.
But to concede that he was “not capable” was something no man could admit!
Bo Yan remained silent, choosing not to argue with her, and Wang Ju went off to handle the clearing of the set, leaving the pair behind. They stood in place, looking at the script with no one else around. Bo Yan put down the script and looked at the disheveled bed, speaking softly, “Although this is work…” Xia Siyu turned her head to look at him.
Bo Yan’s gaze swept toward her calmly, “You’ll see whether I’m capable or not..”
