Jiang Ruan raised her eyebrows, actually agreeing with her words.
But when she thought about Bao Ye not letting her film kissing and bed scenes, she couldn’t help but get a headache.
After much thought, she decided to talk to Sister Qin first.
Sister Qin frowned, "Logically, Bai Yi has a high status. If you can act with him, it would only increase your value. Fans shouldn’t have a problem with that, right?"
"Are you really sure? I’m afraid the Director won’t agree."
Jiang Ruan sighed, "I’ll give it a try."
Sister Qin couldn’t help but ask her, "Why not film kissing scenes?"
"Sweetie, could it be that you..."
Before she finished speaking, Jiang Ruan interrupted, "No."
Jiang Ruan looked very serious, "I’m worried the fans won’t accept it. Last time, when the behind-the-scenes poster with a kissing scene was released, many fans couldn’t accept me doing kissing scenes, and the reaction was quite strong. Anyway, this series mainly focuses on sweet romance, and the sweet interactions between the leads are plenty. I don’t think it matters too much."
Sister Qin sighed after listening, "Alright then."
"As long as you’ve thought it through, I can’t make the decision anyway. After the scenes are done, you should talk to the Director."
With these words, she effectively consented.
Jiang Ruan’s red lips curved into a smile, and she looked at her cheerfully, "Thank you, Sister Qin."
She held her two hands in front of her chest to form a heart shape.
"Having you is my blessing."
Sister Qin chuckled, "Shoo, shoo."
"When did you learn to be so cheesy?"
"Hey, you seem to be in a particularly good mood today?"
"Since I saw you, you haven’t stopped smiling. Did something good happen?"
When questioned, Jiang Ruan’s smile froze for a moment.
She quickly regained her composure, "I’m just full of energy, working hard."
Jiang Ruan’s gaze was firm, "For this series, I must do a good job and aim for the primetime slot!"
Sister Qin’s eyes lit up, "Good, that’s ambition."
Having such a hardworking and positive artist.
It’s her blessing too.
Just as they expected.
As soon as filming began, Li Xin was harshly scolded by the Director for being in poor condition.
"Are you stupid? You knew you were going to be on camera bare-faced today and still ended up ? I just don’t get it, how come others are fine, and you always screw up? Are you deliberately trying to annoy me?"
All one hundred plus people watched.
Seeing Li Xin getting scolded was unbearable.
The Director was truly angry, once it’s her, twice it’s her, every time it’s her.
The Director shouted, "If you really can’t shoot, just say so sooner. I’ll replace you, no need to waste everyone’s time!"
Li Xin had never been scolded in her entire life.
Had never been so embarrassed.
Already upset, she immediately felt even more wronged, and with her face covered, she burst into tears and ran away.
The manager was still speaking on her behalf to the Director, "Director, please don’t hold it against her. Xiao Xin’s family had an incident, and she’s really not in a good mood today."
"She’s in a bad mood? I’m in a bad mood too."
The Director snorted coldly.
"So we all have to accommodate her feelings. Who does she think she is, the young lady of Feihong?"
"I know, I know. How about this, let’s shoot Jiang Ruan and Emperor Bai today, and push Xiao Xin’s scenes back. How does that sound?"
Saying this, the manager discreetly pulled something out.
And secretly slipped it into the Director’s hand.
Everyone’s greedy, after all.
Especially when it fits their liking.
After speaking kindly for a long time, the Director finally agreed grudgingly, addressing everyone.
"Today’s shoot will be with Jiang Ruan and Bai Yi."
"You two, get ready."
Bai Yi is an emperor-tier actor, naturally with impressive skills.
The moment the camera started, he was instantly in character.
Jiang Ruan wasn’t bad either, seamlessly fitting into the scene with both expressions and lines.
Their interaction was flawless.
No faults could be found.
Seeing through the camera, the Director finally nodded in satisfaction.
The Director’s impression of Jiang Ruan, the rising young actress, improved even more.
Hardworking, not demanding, talented.
This girl is a promising stock.
In the realm of acting, her development will only get better.
They could often work together in the future.
Today’s shooting went smoothly, almost every scene was done in one take.
Neither of them faltered in the scenes.
After finishing, Bai Yi greeted her and then took his entourage back to the hotel to rest.
Sister Qin had other matters and left first too.
Jiang Ruan stayed on set, and only after the Director finished up did she walk over.
The Director looked at her, surprised.
"Jiang Ruan, why haven’t you gone back to rest yet."
"Need something from me?"
Jiang Ruan felt a bit embarrassed but still spoke up, "Um, I have a small favor to ask."
As she spoke, Jiang Ruan felt a bit anxious inside.
