Chapter 138

Ji Qingqing smiled and did not speak. She closed the script and stepped out of the van.

Most of the cast had arrived and occasional sounds of laughter drifted over. Ji Qingqing followed the sound and saw a group of actors huddled together, holding their scripts, and chatting with each other.

Shen Weiwei was among the group.

Though she played a minor character, her character appeared throughout the drama. They managed to fill half of her scenes before her injury. And now that she recovered, she and Ji Qingqing both continued filming.

Thinking of it, Shen Weiwei was quite popular because she was good at interacting with other people. Apart from the male and female lead, she had a close relationship with the rest of the crew.

One of the people spotted Ji Qingqing with their sharp eyes and whispered a few words to the group. A few of them stared at her and their laughter ceased.

Ji Qingqing paid no attention and smiled. Their reactions were expected. After all, the original host had pretty much upset an untold amount of people in the crew before.

“Qingqing, come here for a moment.”

She turned back and saw a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties holding a script, beckoning to her. He was casually dressed in a wide-brimmed hat and a pair of glasses perched on his nose.

It was Mr. Zhou, the director of the drama.

“Director Zhou, are you looking for me?”

What if it splashed onto her?

That usually happens in TV dramas.

Ji Qingqing’s reaction made Shen Weiwei look very awkward standing there. “Miss Ji, there’s no need to react like this. I’m here to sincerely apologize for my actions,” she continued.

By then, the busy staff and a couple of actors had more or less noticed the commotion and started watching their interaction.

“You’ve already apologized, so there’s no need to bring this up anymore.”

Shen Weiwei gazed sincerely at her and smiled, “Thank you, Miss Ji. Please accept this cup of coffee as a token of my apology.”

Ji Qingqing reached her hand out to take it. But upon touching the cup’s bottom she realized that it was burning hot and abruptly withdrew her hands. Shen Weiwei was not holding the cup firmly. Just as it looked like it was about to spill onto her, Ji Qingqing reacted quickly. She held the cup’s handle and handed the scalding cup back to Shen Weiwei.

The cup’s bottom was too hot, and the moment Shen Weiwei received it, she instinctively let go of it. Everyone around them watched as her grip loosened and the coffee spilled.

Without waiting for her reply, Ji Qingqing loudly asked “Did it scald you?”

Shen Weiwei’s brows knitted. Although she wasn’t scalded, her clothes had been drenched by the coffee.

“I’m alright.”
