Chapter 180

“Don’t thank me, thank Chief Sun . ” The director waved his hand, and said, “You’d better quickly get someone to pay-off those crew members now, whilst Mr . Lu isn’t on set . Make them quickly go away to save yourself some peace of mind before anyone finds any flaws in the story!”

Even though there was a big incident on set yesterday, no one got hurt, and so they continued to shoot the next day as per usual .

Qiao Anhao and Lu Jinnian were originally meant to have a scene together in the early afternoon . However, because some scenes were delayed yesterday, their’s was pushed back till later that afternoon .

The scene they had to shoot was to be shot in the city . Qiao Anhao played the second female lead who had just found out that the second male lead, who she loved deeply, would be back from his trip abroad . The two of them got in-touch again, and so they was a little dazed as she walked down the street .

Lu Jinnian, the second male lead, coincidentally would see Qiao Anhao and follow after her . Eventually, when she was about to cross the road, she’d be almost hit by an on-coming car because of her absent mindedness, but he would reach out and grab her .

The street for the shoot was closed off in advance . Pedestrians on the street were all extras from the crew .

The director screamed out, “Cut” . He creased his brows and asked in a loud yell, “Why did your hand stop mid-air?”

Lu Jinnian didn’t say a word, his hand holding its position halfway-up . After standing for quite a long while, he slowly lowered his hand . He turned his head to the director and said apologetically, “Sorry, let’s go again . “

When he finished speaking, Lu Jinnian strode towards his first position of the shot . The make-up artist quickly circled him to fix the make-up .

After he was done and all of the props were repositioned, the director called out, “Standby . ” Lu Jinnian raised his hand and pressed his shoulder before letting out a long sigh of satisfaction . Following the director’s word “Action”, he immediately got into character .

When Qiao Anhao was about to get hit by oncoming car, Lu Jinnian leaped forward like a tiged and reached his arm out . He forcefully dragged Qiao Anhao back . The car in front of her flashed by, scaring her to into turning her head and looking at Lu Jinnian in astonishment . He who was discreetly gritting his teeth to endure the pain in his back and staring back at her
