Chapter 597 -597: Raising a Star (20)

Feng Wang did not want to discuss the reason he had hit someone. His resistance was written all over his face, a defense and vigilance that read ‘Do not pry into my private affairs.’

Chuzheng’s gaze fell on the medicine bottle on the nearby table.

Feng Wang seemed to notice and, with a swift motion, clutched the medicine bottle in his hand, blocking Chuzheng’s line of sight.

As if nothing had happened, Feng Wang said, “Little junior sister, please cover for me with Lan Ling, I will think of you as a good person, oh!”

Chuzheng had not seen clearly, but the more Feng Wang tried to conceal it, the more it proved there was a problem.

Without agreeing or disagreeing, Chuzheng calmly said, “Filming is paused today, I’ll take you back.”

“My assistant can take me back…”

“Then I can only tell Lan Ling.” Even when making a threat, Chuzheng’s face was coldly indifferent, as if she was not really making a threat.

It took a while for Feng Wang to say, “Then I’ll trouble you, little junior sister.”

“Mm.”

Feng Wang: “…”

You insist on taking me back when I don’t want you to.

You offer to take me back and act politely, only to accept the offer?

What kind of person are you!

Feng Wang got up, his neck still ached as he covered it with his hand and walked out.

“Don’t let me find out who hit me!!” Feng Wang muttered.

Chuzheng · culprit · Zheng: “…” I won’t let you find out.

Chuzheng took Feng Wang back to his apartment. Feng Wang had been prepared to deal with Chuzheng, but all she did was drop him off at the apartment and then leave without looking back.

Feng Wang: “…”

So she really just took him back.

–

Filming was suspended for two days before they were notified to continue.

Feng Wang had thought they would replace him, but the other party said nothing and carried on as normal.

Possibly feeling guilty, Feng Wang took filming more seriously—yet it was of no consequence, and he still managed to give the director a splitting headache.

“We’re down to the last part, please work hard, both teachers, and we’ll try to finish today.”

“I have no problem,” Feng Wang blurted out.

“…” The one with the most problems is you, okay!!

The final part was set in modern times, requiring shooting at a school.

This part Feng Wang actually shot quite smoothly, without much mischief.

The youth in school uniform frolicked with his classmates and was accidentally pushed by one of them, bumping into the girl standing in the middle.

The two of them exchanged a silent gaze.

Sakura blossoms abounded on both sides, with petals spinning down from the sky.

The air seemed to be filled with the sweet scent of youth.

“Watch out…”

Someone shouted a warning.

Startled, the boy looked back, and a car sped towards him.

Just as it was about to strike the boy, the girl grabbed his arm and pulled him to the side with a swift motion.

“Cut!”

The director called a halt.

“Teacher Chi, you need to fall to the ground here. Then roll over to the side for two laps…” The director gestured as he spoke.

Chuzheng firmly responded, “I can pull him away.”

Director: “…”

Dammit, we don’t need you to pull him away!!

“My character isn’t an ordinary person; why would such a mistake occur?” Chuzheng argued with the director.

The director, with a headache, said, “Teacher Chi, it’s not a matter of whether it’s logical or not; we want the effect!!”

The audience only cares about the visual effects presented, not the logic.

This is an advertisement!!

Their focus isn’t on the story, it’s on the jewelry!

“I got it.” Chuzheng did not continue.

The director, having lost the opportunity to vent his meticulously prepared speech, frustratingly returned to his spot.

Feng Wang had been silent, now looking down at Chuzheng holding his hand.

She was gripping his wrist, but even through his clothes, Feng Wang could feel the warmth of her palm.

As he was distracted, Chuzheng let go of him.

The director over there shouted for another take.

All the actors returned to their positions.

As the car sped along—actually, it did not; it was moving slowly, to be sped up in post-production—

Chuzheng, as the car drew near, timely grabbed the boy who had been startled into immobility by the car.

Chuzheng didn’t fall after all…

“Sorry, I got used to it,” Chuzheng apologized proactively, not waiting for the director to lose his temper.

It’s not her fault for being skilled!!

Pretending to fall is a bit difficult!!

The director had to swallow his rage once again.

On the third try, Chuzheng finally fell.

The director was a bit stunned, she wasn’t supposed to actually fall! This was supposed to be edited in post-production, but Chuzheng really fell!!!

And her movement was very smooth.

The director was so scared that he didn’t dare to call cut.

The two rolled on the ground, with the girl on top and the boy underneath.

The jewelry on the boy’s neck became visible, and the girl, as if attracted, couldn’t help but reach out to grab it.

Feng Wang stared at her, dazed, forgetting to react.

The girl was light in weight, her body pressing on him, unfamiliar scents wafting over.

Cherry blossoms fell gently, the whole scene filled with a pink, romantic hue.

The girl’s lowered lashes cast fan-shaped shadows beneath her eyelids.

Her nose was finely shaped, her lips full, glistening with an inviting sheen, tempting one with the urge to kiss.

Her clear eyes, like a frozen lake, reflected shadows but were hazy, emitting a hint of coldness.

Feng Wang felt an indescribable sensation in the depths of his heart.

A hazy palpitation.

And this palpitation came from the person before him…

“Cut—” the director called, satisfied with the take.

Feng Wang pushed Chuzheng away in a fluster, jumped up, and walked away quickly to the side.

“Brother Feng, are you hot?” the assistant’s voice came from afar.

“Not hot.”

“Then why are you sweating?” the assistant asked innocently.

“Go, go, go,” Feng Wang shooed the assistant away: “Never noticed how much you talk before… Keep talking, and I’ll dock your pay.”

Chuzheng got up from the ground.

“Sister Chuzheng, you got hurt?” Liang Xi popped up, immediately noticing the scrape on Chuzheng’s palm.

Chuzheng looked at it indifferently: “It’s nothing.”

She had cushioned Feng Wang when they fell just now.

“That won’t do, come on, let me take care of that for you.”

Liang Xi pulled Chuzheng aside to treat the wound.

And with that, the shoot here was over, and the location was moved.

After that, Feng Wang almost avoided eye contact with Chuzheng, causing the director to keep yelling at him.

–

During the break, Chuzheng went to the restroom and upon her return, found that Feng Wang and his assistant were not around, but his clothes were thrown on a chair.

Chuzheng looked around; seeing that the crew was either resting, browsing on their phones, or organizing equipment, and no one was paying attention, she carefully moved closer.

Looking up and around once more.

Seeing really no one was paying attention, she quickly felt around inside Feng Wang’s clothes pockets.

There was nothing in Feng Wang’s clothes…

“What are you looking for?”

Feng Wang’s voice came from behind her.

Chuzheng stiffened.

Damn it!

How did he come back?

No big deal, no worries!

Chuzheng quickly composed herself, withdrew her hand without any visible reaction, turned around to face the man behind her, and calmly answered, “My phone.”

The man’s linen-colored hair was dotted with a few droplets of water, sparkling in the sunlight, he tilted his chin slightly, “Your phone is in your hand.”

Chuzheng looked down.

The phone was indeed in her hand.

“Just found it,” Chuzheng said, looking up, unflinchingly truthful.

Feng Wang seemed skeptical, asking with doubt, “How did your phone end up on my chair?”

“How would I know, maybe Liang Xi put it there by mistake,” Chuzheng continued to blame Liang Xi unfazedly.

Feng Wang seemed to believe this explanation, didn’t inquire further, moved his clothes from the chair, lay down, covered his face with the clothes, and then there was no more movement.

Whew…

Glad I think fast.

Otherwise, it’d be too embarrassing.
