Chapter 222: Chapter 222: It’s Just a Matter of a Stand-in Getting Slapped Chapter 222: Chapter 222: It’s Just a Matter of a Stand-in Getting Slapped Ye Chuchu remained silent, but the smile on her face had already given Bai Yuxin an answer.
When the third scene of the morning was about to start shooting, Bai Yuxin suddenly went to find Zhang Chi, “Director, should the slap be real?”
Zhang Chi glanced indifferently at Bai Yuxin, “Do you think faking it would achieve the effect?”
“But in that scene, if the slap is real, Teacher Chuchu won’t be able to take it. She’s got a roadshow in the afternoon, and if her face isn’t in good shape, there’s nothing that can be done!” Bai Yuxin frowned.
The director, who had been arranged in advance by Ye Chuchu, came over and said, “Indeed, Chuchu really can’t be slapped for real. Maybe Ye Weiwei could step in to help?”
“No need, she’s a makeup artist, not a stand-in,” Zhang Chi refused on behalf of Ye Weiwei.
However, the assistant director didn’t give up, “Director Zhang, but we can’t find anyone suitable to stand in for Chuchu. Besides, this scene requires certain weather conditions, and today’s rare flurry of petals won’t come by again anytime soon.”
“I said it’s not necessary,” said Zhang Chi, his face unworried.
“Director, don’t you think you’re being a bit biased towards Ye Weiwei?” Bai Yuxin pouted deliberately.
Zhang Chi’s face darkened, “Not using her as a stand-in means I’m biased?”
“Yeah, ask everyone if you don’t believe me!” Bai Yuxin purposely nudged some of the female artists who, like her, didn’t like Ye Weiwei.
Then came a barrage of complaints, and those bolder ones even brought up rumors of a possible affair between the director and Ye Weiwei.
Ye Weiwei, who was touching up a male artist’s makeup in the makeup room, was found by Ke Xin.
“Weiwei, they’re arguing with the director because of you,” Ke Xin said with a helpless expression.
“Why are they arguing?” Ye Weiwei asked while following Ke Xin out, listening to her explain the situation outside.
After learning the ins and outs of the matter, Ye Weiwei sneered coldly, “I see.”
“Yeah, it’s all about someone taking a slap as a stand-in, but they’re specifically picking on you. I think Bai Yuxin is just looking for a chance to hurt you!” Ke Xin said with disdain upon thinking about Bai Yuxin’s behavior.
Ye Weiwei smiled, stopped in her tracks, “Ke Xin, help me with something.”
“Hmm?” Ke Xin was momentarily taken aback.
Ye Weiwei then leaned over to Ke Xin’s ear and whispered a few words…
Five minutes later, Ye Weiwei and Ke Xin came over.
“Director, since Ye Chuchu needs a stand-in, I’ll reluctantly help out just this once. Otherwise, everyone always seems to think my relationship with the director is ambiguous!” Ye Weiwei was looking at the director but spoke to Bai Yuxin and her group.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Chi narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, “Ye Weiwei, are you sure?”
“Yes,” Ye Weiwei nodded.
“Director, since Ye Weiwei has no problem, let’s not waste time. Let her go for makeup touch-up quickly,” Bai Yuxin said eagerly, raising her hand, pleased with herself as Ye Weiwei had volunteered.
The scene for Ye Chuchu was when she, as the Little Talented, gets slapped by Bai Yuxin, the Noble Consort, in the garden.
Ye Weiwei and Ke Xin briefly studied the script, and the two acted as stand-ins together. Ye Weiwei stood in for Ye Chuchu, while Ke Xin stood in for Ye Chuchu’s lead palace maid.
After Zhang Chi called for the start and clapped the clapperboard as a final reminder to Ye Weiwei.
The shooting began.
“Oh, you little harlot, so it was you who accompanied the Emperor last night. Are the Emperor’s hands good-looking? Did he touch your face when you played chess?” Bai Yuxin said as she raised her hand and swung a hard slap at her.
But before the slap could land, Ke Xin quietly shifted her position on the side, while Ye Weiwei cleverly twisted her body and skillfully dodged Bai Yuxin’s hand.
