Chapter 476: Chapter 476: There Are Ways to Deal with Her
Upon learning that her scenes had been cut, Lai Yuaner threw a temper tantrum, but couldn’t resist the combined persuasion of Lai Shengxia and Sister Wen. The next morning, she obediently returned to the film set.
Upon arrival, Lai Yuaner approached the director to apologize.
“Because ‘Original Sin’ started airing, seeing how much everyone liked the character Ying Xuaner in the drama, it’s impossible not to feel pressured. It just so happened that Tang Li and I are in the same crew, and netizens are comparing us, in addition to the earlier drug incident… Regardless, it was indeed my impulsiveness.”
Zhao Zhenglei was sitting behind the monitor, looking at Lai Yuaner’s slightly red eyes, seemingly sincerely remorseful. Thinking about her young age and that mistakes are inevitable, he decided not to blame her further: “Go makeup, don’t keep everyone waiting for you alone!”
Lai Yuaner nodded and immediately went to the makeup room.
Tang Li was nearby in the corridor looking at the script. After Lai Yuaner left, she caught a glimpse from the corner of her eye that Zhao Zhenglei had asked the assistant director to call over the screenwriter.
“Meng Ling fanned herself with the script, her eyes also looking towards the director: “Admitting her mistake was timely. If Lai Yuaner hadn’t shown up today, her scenes would have really been gone; by coming to apologize now, only a few scenes would be cut, not enough to wrap up her role prematurely.”
In the makeup room, Lai Yuaner wasn’t in the best state.
After the makeup artist finished with her makeup, they were called to touch up makeup for other actors.
At this moment, Sister Wen’s cellphone rang.
After Sister Wen stepped out, only Lai Yuaner and Shen Na were left in the room.
Thinking about how today’s five scenes had been reduced to one, Lai Yuaner couldn’t feel happy. She’d been in the entertainment industry for many years and knew very well that more scenes underscore a character’s traits, but now, her loyal scenes had been reduced by seven or eight.
Because she hadn’t shown up two days ago, in order to keep up with the schedule, the team filmed scenes between Mrs. Bao and Mrs. Qi, directly cutting her part out!
“Who knows if someone has been putting eye drops in front of the director for you.” Shen Na unscrewed her water bottle, handing it to Lai Yuaner. “That Tang Li has always been hostile towards you. Otherwise, why would the crew call her ‘Xuanxuan’? She just wants to make you angry. You not showing up for filming fits right into her plans!”
Drinking water, Lai Yuaner recalled her elder sister’s advice over the phone, telling her not to compete with Tang Li and to focus on finishing her role and then return to the Capital.
Sister Wen also said, she should solidify her place in the entertainment circle through her works, not by acting capriciously, which would only deplete her accumulated popularity over the years.
Whether it was her elder sister or Sister Wen, they both thought she was wrong.
And they even forced her to admit her mistakes to the director.
Thinking this way, Lai Yuaner felt as if a great weight was pressing on her chest, suffocating her with the urge to kill!
Suddenly, Shen Na spoke up: “Actually, there is a way to deal with her.”
Hearing this, Lai Yuaner looked at her: “What way?”
Shen Na, with a mysterious look, covered her mouth with her hand, leaned forward, and whispered into Lai Yuaner’s ear.
After listening, Lai Yuaner’s lips curled into a smirk.
Tang Li came out of the restroom, running into Lai Yuaner who was indeed dressed in her royal attire. It wasn’t so much a chance meeting, as Lai Yuaner was clearly waiting for her.
Seeing Tang Li, Lai Yuaner walked over and initiated: “I was wrong before, targeting you unnecessarily. These two days I’ve reflected deeply. I also want to apologize to you. Since the crew has a break tomorrow, if you are willing to forgive me, let’s go out for lunch.”
Just then, a crew member happened to pass by.
Tang Li looked at Lai Yuaner, whose face showed genuine remorse, and slightly curved her lips: “Since you’ve said so much, it wouldn’t sound good if I refused now.”
