Xu Menglu was about to say something when she heard footsteps. A woman in her thirties quickly walked over.

The woman glared at Xu Menglu and shouted, “Xu Menglu, what are you doing? Do you know that everyone is waiting for you? Do you still want to shoot? If you don’t want to shoot, then don’t waste everyone’s time?”

“Yes, I do!” Xu Menglu immediately said, “I will shoot. I’m just here to adjust my mood. It’s fine now. I’ll be right there.”

The woman was still dissatisfied and said, “Humph, you are so unreasonable. It’s just a few somersaults. You young actors are vulnerable. You don’t have the spirit to suffer at all.”

“I can endure hardship, I can endure hardship.” Xu Menglu explained in a panic.

The woman then turned her eyes to Ye Xiaofei and said, “Who are you? Why haven’t 1 seen you before?”

“I just got here,” said Ye Xiaofei.

The woman didn’t ask further. The base was very strict, but after all, the staff working here didn’t know each other.

“Hurry up and go over. It’s about to start.” After saying that, the woman quickly walked away.

“That woman is quite fierce.” Ye Xiaofei said.

“She’s the assistant director of our production team.” She’ll scold people if she doesn’t get a good show,” said Xu Menglu.

Ye Xiaofei asked casually, “Then, are you not good at acting?”

“I…” Xu Menglu’s expression darkened as she said softly, “I’m never worthy of a good show.”

“Not good enough? What does this mean? Ye Xiaofei asked doubtfully.

Xu Menglu shook her head. “Let’s not talk about this for now. 1 didn’t bring my phone with me. Can you give me your phone number first?”

“No problem. You can say your piece. I’ll call you now.” Ye Xiaofei said.

“Good! Good!” Xu Menglu’s face broke into a smile as she watched Ye Xiaofei dial her number. She then said, “It is a little late, and I have to go back quickly. Let’s talk later.”

After saying that, Xu Menglu quickly ran out, but her legs were a little unsteady as she ran.

Ye Xiaofei frowned slightly. He could tell at a glance that Xu Menglu’s leg had just suffered a hard injury. It should be the kind of injury that happened when she fell to the ground.

Ye Xiaofei quietly followed behind them. He came here to see how they filmed.

If they didn’t come into contact with each other, they would forget about their classmates in primary school after they grew up.

Xu Menglu had recognized him at a glance. It was obvious that he had left a deep impression in Xu Menglu’s heart, but he didn’t know what made Xu Menglu remember him at that time.

There was a group of people gathered there, probably filming. Ye Xiaofei moved to the back and looked inside curiously.

This should be a modern scene where a rich young lady questioned a poor girl because of her feelings.

After two sentences of dialogue, the rich lady pushed down the poor girl.

And the one playing the poor girl was Xu Menglu.

The rich actress was Zheng Yurong, who was still considered quite famous.

However, Ye Xiaofei had been isolated from the world for more than five years and did not know her at all.

“Get lost! Don’t appear in front of my boyfriend!”

The actress who played the rich girl shouted and pushed Xu Menglu to the ground.

Plop!

Ye Xiaofei couldn’t help but frown slightly. The fall was very solid and heavy. Xu Menglu couldn’t walk just now, which was the reason.

“Stop it! It’s done!”

The director shouted a big word,

Xu Menglu heaved a sigh of relief.

Zheng Yurong immediately said, “Director, 1 think we should add more scenes to this scene. This way, I won’t be able to express my character’s anger at all. I suggest slapping her twice more so that she can perfectly express my emotions.”

The director beamed and said, “Yurong is indeed a good actress. She can grasp the character deeply.”

Zheng Yurong continued to say, “That’s right. To ensure the authenticity of this scene, 1 hope it’s a real fight. Otherwise, my actions will be out of shape. The actor who gets beaten up won’t be able to show that kind of realism.”

“That’s right! When we film, we have to make it realistic. There are too few actors who work as hard as Yurong. All departments, pay attention. We have to try our best to cooperate and strive to pass it in one take.”

Zheng Yurong turned to look at Xu Menglu and winked mischievously. “Xu Menglu, 1’11 have to trouble you then.”

Xu Menglu’s expression turned ugly, but she forced a smile and said, “Sister Rong, I’m fine.”

Ye Xiaofei couldn’t help but frown.

Looking at Zheng Yurong’s appearance, it was obvious that she was deliberately targeting Xu Menglu. She wanted to use the name of acting to punish Xu Menglu.

At this moment, the director shouted. Zheng Yurong’s face was ferocious. She gritted her teeth and raised her hand. She swung it around and slapped Xu Menglu’s face.

Xu Menglu could not help but fall to the ground. She saw stars and felt dizzy.

“Stop!” This time, Zheng Yurong directly shouted and then said apologetically, “I’m sorry. I was in a bad mood just now. Let’s do it again.”

This woman did it on purpose..
