Chapter 88

The director neither confirmed nor denied it, he just rubbed his nose and said, "I still have things to do, so I\'ll get going first."

"Hey, wait a minute!" Hearing Qi Yue\'s voice, the director started jogging away directly. His speed was quite fast, with all the fat on his body jiggling.

Qi Yue: "..."

"I just wanted to remind him that his pants were ripped..."

Shen Tang also noticed it. There was a hole ripped open on the butt. She coughed and said, "Don\'t worry, others will remind him if they see it too."

In the end, the director was still wearing those tight pants at the crew dinner that night.

Had he fixed it?

Shen Tang was taken aback for a moment. She deliberately circled around to the back of the director to take a look. Hmm, his pants were still ripped.

The director looked back. "What are you suddenly coming over here for?"

Shen Tang didn\'t know whether to speak up about it or not. After an entire day, those who should see it would have already seen it.

She covered her mouth and softly reminded him: "Your pants are ruined."

"What?"

"I said your pants are ruined!"

At that moment, the music abruptly stopped, making Shen Tang\'s words very conspicuous. Everyone around looked over at once, checking out the director\'s butt.

Director: "..."

Shen Tang took a step back with an innocent look on her face. It wasn\'t her fault, how could she have known the music would suddenly stop like that?

After all, the director had seen his fair share of things in the industry. He waved his hand unconcernedly, "It\'s fine, let\'s continue eating."

In any case, it had been seen by everyone over the course of the day already, so what was a few more minutes?

This truly illustrated the saying, being open-minded is a virtue. He never agonizes over himself internally.

Just like now, the director was not embarrassed, yet everyone else felt embarrassed instead.

Sure enough, what that saying pointed out was right - as long as I\'m not embarrassed, the embarrassment lies with others.

Shen Tang went back to her seat. Qi Yue peeled a shrimp and passed it to her. "Not bad."

Shen Tang exaggerated the tone of her voice. "Oh my, this is a shrimp personally peeled by the young miss. This slave will take it back and worship it as an offering."

Qi Yue rolled her eyes. "Tone down your exaggerated acting. Otherwise, I\'m afraid others may say you got in through the back door."

"Pfft!"

No one knew who laughed first, but everyone burst out laughing together.

Only one person did not blend in with the others - Hou Jingjing, who played the second female lead. She had a mocking smile on her face, even brazenly rolling her eyes.

Her actions were so conspicuous that Shen Tang couldn\'t help looking over.

Hou Jingjing raised her head and glanced over with a sneer.

Shen Tang blinked blankly, wondering if she had offended her somehow?

"May I ask if you..."

Hou Jingjing put down her utensils and dabbed her mouth with a napkin. "Didn\'t anyone teach you the custom of no talking while eating?"

Although she didn\'t address anyone specifically, everyone knew she was referring to Shen Tang.

However, everyone felt they were being scolded too.

Shen Tang made a sound of surprise. "You\'re asking me this right in front of everyone. Are you trying to deliberately embarrass me publicly?"

Qi Yue pretended to cover her mouth unintentionally, recounting all of life\'s sad stories in her mind to stop herself from laughing out loud.

The cowardly group takes a big loss.

It seemed like Hou Jingjing had never encountered anyone like Shen Tang before. She was at a temporary loss for words.

Stuttering, she said, "I, I..."

She did intend to embarrass her, but who would ask so directly?

"Have I offended you somehow?" Shen Tang asked earnestly. She really wanted to know the answer.

Hou Jingjing\'s eyes instantly turned red. "Don\'t you know clearly yourself what you\'ve done?!"

After saying that, she ran off.

Shen Tang was even more confused now. What had she done to her?

Hou Jingjing\'s behavior did dampen the mood quite a bit. Everyone else didn\'t know whether they should continue joking around or leave early. They all looked towards the director.

"Everyone keep going. I\'ll go take a look at little Hou." It would be a good chance to change into another pair of pants, the director thought.

Shen Tang felt a little awkward and quietly asked Qi Yue: "Should I not have said that line?"

Qi Yue gave a cold laugh. "The one who flirts first is cheap. She was the one who criticized you first. Your counterattack was not wrong. She got embarrassed because she couldn\'t retort back, that\'s why she ran back to her room."

Although Shen Tang knew this rationale, she still couldn\'t help but wonder if she had gone a little overboard.

After all, it looked like the other party had cried.

Although Hou Jingjing was only playing the second female lead, she wasn\'t well-known. Come to think of it, this may have been her first time acting as the second female lead.

Of course, Shen Tang didn\'t mean anything else by that. After all, she also hadn\'t played many second female lead roles herself. It\'s said that every set inevitably has its own share of tears and laughter.

"Forget it, I won\'t think about it anymore. Let\'s eat!"

Today was considered the opening feast. It was the last relaxed and happy meal before the hard work started tomorrow.

According to what Pei Kesong said, this director had strict requirements. He would keep making people reshoot scenes again and again if he was not satisfied, and his scoldings spared no one, until he was pleased with the result.

Of course, Shen Tang had not yet witnessed any of that from the director so far.

She sidled up to Qi Yue and asked softly: "How come your brother and Lin Mianmian aren\'t here today?"

Qi Yue\'s expression was somewhat complicated. "Don\'t mention that guy to me. He\'s nothing but a kiss-up."

Shen Tang did not give any opinions regarding this statement.

"What a kiss-up. In the end, he didn\'t get anything at all from it," Qi Yue sighed.

"Well, you never know..."

Maybe the female lead would fall into Qi Jue\'s hands in the end?

Hmm, somehow it felt like there was some innuendo in that sentence?

Time passed quickly. After official shooting started, Shen Tang finally understood why Pei Kesong would say what she did.

She watched with her own eyes as Hou Jingjing was scolded to tears by the director, then ran off.

This time, the director did not chase after her. He only said, "If you can act then act, if you can\'t then get lost."

Not long after, Hou Jingjing was led back by an assistant, her eyes red from crying, to continue filming.

Shen Tang was shocked. She quietly complained: "How can one person have such vastly different sides to them?"

Yuan Yuan thought she was afraid, and comforted her, "Don\'t be scared Sister Tangtang, your acting is very good, you won\'t get scolded too many times."

Shen Tang\'s lips moved. "I appreciate your words, but can I just not get scolded at all?"

Yuan Yuan had a forced smile on her face.

Shen Tang: "..."

"Forget it, stop talking."

No point in humiliating herself further. After all, she had heard that even top actors have been scolded by the director before.

Lin Mianmian\'s acting was quite remarkable, befitting of the female lead in the book.

This also resulted in standout performances from Shen Tang in their shared scenes. Usually they could nail scenes in one take.

They finished several scenes in one go each time. The director praised, "Not bad."

To be frank, Shen Tang didn\'t feel those two words held any significance. Yet some people didn\'t see it that way.

Hou Jingjing looked over with puffed up anger, like an enraged blowfish.

Shen Tang gave her a smile.

Hou Jingjing was outraged. She said to her assistant, "Did you see that? She was actually mocking me!"

The little assistant hesitated. "It looked like she just smiled normally..."

"Are you my assistant or hers? Why are you even speaking up for her?!"

"Of course I\'m yours." The little assistant revealed a bitter smile. What a temper on this master...
