“What’s there to be afraid of? I’m telling the truth. You were even injured in the scene where you were arrested two days ago. Why don’t we have a special stand-in actor? Sigh.”

Another supporting actor said, “Don’t you understand? She was hired by the investor. We were supposed to change the female lead, but in the end, we didn’t. I say, she’s really capable to be able to hook up with the investor’s sugar daddy.”

“That’s right. We’re not smart enough, so we can only be the second female lead,” Xu Rui joked and laughed softly.

Then, the people outside continued to discuss how Lu Zhen managed to keep the role of the female lead. She must have used some despicable methods.

Lu Zhen listened for a while before turning to leave. She changed places and continued to read the script. She forced herself to memorize the lines on the paper, but the lead-printed words seemed to float slowly off the paper and look mockingly at her.

She felt dizzy and nauseous.

The memories of her previous life seemed to resurface. At that time, everyone said that she had hooked up with a sugar daddy and used her body to exchange for roles and awards. No one remembered her hard work. Everyone scolded her and said that she was hypocritical, pretentious, and cheap.

Lu Zhen took a deep breath and dug her nails into the skin between her thumb and index finger.

Calm down, calm down. This would never happen again in this life. Ten minutes later, Lu Zhen lay on the carved bed in the Chinese retro mansion. Xi De sat by the bed. The two of them were going to film the dialogue in the bed scene later.

The nude scenes had already been filmed. Lu Zhen only needed to fill in the close-up shots and lines.

This scene was filmed after the two of them had been passionate. Xi De suddenly asked Yue Qin if she had another man in her heart. Yue Qin naturally denied it on the spot, but Xi De’s smile was cold. He took out the gun from the bedside table and stuffed it into Yue Qin’s hand, letting Yue Qin personally prove to him that there was no other man in her heart.

The way to prove it was to personally kill the person who had broken into the residence a few days ago and was arrested. Not far away, the lighting technician was still adjusting the light, and the photographer was ready.

Lu Zhen took off her jacket and was wearing a tube top underneath. Her body was hidden under the blanket, only revealing her fair and round shoulders and faintly discernible chest. Her swan-like slender neck was leaning against the pillow. She was as beautiful as a female demon who would seduce scholars in ghost stories.

Even though Xi De was an actor who had seen a lot, he did not dare to look directly at the snow-white spring. He coughed softly. “Are you ready? I see that you’re a little nervous.”

Xi De was indeed very observant. Lu Zhen was not in a good state now, and her eyes were listless. Xi De thought that Lu Zhen had never filmed a bed scene before, so she was nervous.

At the thought of this, Xi De sat further away, wanting Lu Zhen to relax as much as possible.

“I’m fine.” Lu Zhen forced a smile and forced herself to quickly find her

composure.

Two minutes later, the director called for the scene to begin.

The half-naked warlord, Zheng Xiong, was pressed against Yue Qin. The

1.9-meter-tall muscular man brought a powerful sense of oppression.

However, Yue Qin did not know that Zheng Xiong would question her later. She was still immersed in the pleasure of sex just now. She narrowed her eyes and wrapped her arms around Xi De’s neck. Her eyes were lazy and teasing, as if she was not satisfied just now.

At this moment, Yue Qin was completely different from the cold and numb woman in the teahouse. She was also different from the ruthless woman who captured the enemy.

The two of them acted according to the script. Suddenly, Director Ding Zhi shouted for them to stop.

“The two of you are matching lines. Where’s the eye contact? Where’s the tug? Lu Zhen, focus!” Director Ding Zhi pointed out their problem bluntly.

“I’m sorry, it’s my fault,” Xi De whispered at once, taking the blame.

Lu Zhen bit her lip. She knew that the problem was not with Xi De, but herself. She was still affected by the words of the people outside just now. That was her inner demon from her previous life. Coupled with the fact that she had just had a conflict with Song Jia and was in a bad mood, she was even more affected.

Lu Zhen pinched her palm with her nails. The pain made her more and more awake. Her eyes revealed a cold rationality, and her rationality forcefully suppressed her inappropriate emotions.

The second filming began. This time, Lu Zhen would completely devote herself to this scene.

On the bed, Yue Qin was as lazy and enchanting as a cat. Her charming eyes revealed a hint of numb fatigue. Yue Qin’s fingers drew circles on Zheng Xiong’s chest. Her beautiful eyes looked at Zheng Xiong’s Adam’s apple and she smiled charmingly.. “So soon today?”
