Chapter 197: Scolding (1)

The staff and the three actors got in place. After Su Yaya was finished with her lines, it was Chen Yan’s turn, but she was still blocked by Su Yaya. She was thinking about moving to the side and trying her best to make sure Su Yaya doesn’t block all her camera shots.

But the moment she wanted to move, she noticed that she was about to be out of range. Su Yaya had done a great job blocking her camera shot. She really had no other choice. She was angry and hated Su Yaya in her heart, so she unnaturally revealed those expressions. Naturally, it was a bit different from the ‘wronged’ expression that she was supposed to reveal according to the script. It completely differed from what Director Zhou Tongguang requested.

“Cut, cut, cut!” Director Zhou Tongguang angrily called out. “Chen Yan, what’s the matter with you today? Don’t you know how to make expressions? You don’t know how to read from the scripts? You need to make it seem like you’re wronged in this scene. But look at the expression you just made, are you preparing to pounce on Su Yaya and kill her? Do you think you can kill her with your status right now?”

Hearing Director Zhou Tongguang scold Chen Yan and that severely on top of anything, Su Yaya was secretly ecstatic in her heart as he was scolding her like an ignorant newbie. Who let Chen Yan steal her camera shots yesterday? This was her revenge to Chen Yan. Thankfully, she endured Chen Yan’s treatment yesterday and didn’t make any mistakes while shooting the scenes. Therefore, she wasn’t scolded that badly by Director Zhou Tongguang either Otherwise, who knew how happy Chen Yan would be in her heart? Now, Chen Yan wanted to get in the spotlight and got scolded by the director as a result. She deserved it!

Chen Yan was scolded by Director Zhou Tongguang again by everyone and her face flushed. Since she debuted, no one questioned her acting skills and as she became a senior in the circle, no one had really ever scolded her before. Even more, she got better and better within the entertainment circle. Who didn’t kiss up and worship her? But now that she was scolded by him in front of everyone, she was about to burst from anger.

She clenched her teeth and then apologized to Director Zhou Tongguang again. “Director, sorry. I’ll adjust myself instantly and make sure this doesn’t happen again.”

Seeing that Chen Yan had apologized sincerely, Director Zhou Tongguang stopped arguing with her. He waved his hands and said, “Fine. Let’s shoot again.”

Therefore, everyone got in their positions again and then prepared to shoot the scene again.

This time, Su Yaya’s lines and expressions were performed perfectly again. It was unsure whether Chen Yan was influenced by the past two times, but she didn’t display her usual level of performance during this time. Even more, she didn’t dare to move around now. She didn’t want to get out of range of the camera shot again.

Director Zhou Tongguang looked at Chen Yan’s performance and his face darkened right then. He slammed the script in his hands on the chair and pointed at Chen Yan’s noise, scolding, “Chen Yan, what are you doing? How are you acting? Do you need me to teach you this from the beginning?”

Chen Yan was scolded again and she was angry in her heart, hating Su Yaya. However, she didn’t dare express this on her face. She could only say apologetically, “Director Zhou, I want to rest a few minutes before shooting the scene again.”

Seeing Chen Yan being scolded, Su Yaya was delighted in her heart. She looked at Chen Yan with her innocently and pure eyes, pretending to be concerned. “Sister Yan, are you uncomfortable? If you are, then go back to rest. We’re fine. We can wait for you.”

Chen Yan glanced at Su Yaya as though a dagger was hidden in her gaze. She couldn’t help but cut Su Yaya into pieces. After all, she, Chen Yan, had been in the entertainment circle for years and gotten many connections. Only she got to steal other people’s camera shots and their lines, but no one could do anything about it. They could only secretly hate her.

Who knew that after encountering Su Yaya today, she couldn’t even beat her down in fear of doing it too obviously. After all, she had Chen Xiuqi backing her up. She only dared to make some moves during the filming, but she didn’t know how the woman noticed her. Now, she purposely pinpointed against her while they were filming their scenes. Because of that, she made a few mistakes. Su Yaya was too despicable!

Receiving Chen Yan’s dagger-like gaze, she knew that Chen Yan was unhappy in her heart. However, Su Yaya was really happy and extremely delighted.
