Chapter 38

Everyone Envy This Stinky Man

While Zhou Yan was putting on makeup, Li Xunhuan, Zheng Jiaxin, and others arrived one after another.

"You're here so early?" Li Xunhuan looked at Zhou Yan in the dressing room with surprise, not expecting him to arrive so early.

"I couldn't sleep this morning, so I came here."

The rest of the makeup team came over and began to do makeup on Li Xunhuan, Zheng Jiaxin, and others.

Jia Jingwen arrived late, her steps unsteady.

"Jingwen, what's wrong with you?" Zheng Jiaxin's expression changed slightly. How could she have become like this overnight?

"I twisted my back yesterday while I was suspended by wires, and then I pulled my leg while filming an action scene," Jia Jingwen said, glancing at Zhou Yan.

"Why don't you ask the director for a two-day break?" Lin Li suggested. He plays the "hypocrite" Long Xiaoyun in the drama.

Although Lin Li is a villain in the drama, he is a genuinely kind person in real life.

Lin Li is very helpful and is recognized as the crew's "nanny". Whenever there is a problem, you can't go wrong by asking him.

Lin Li not only showed concern for his fellow crew members and bought breakfast for the actors every day, but he also knew all the crew members from other film crews who were filming in the same studio.

Zhou Yan knows quite a few people, but they all become acquainted through chatting!

"No need, there are no fight scenes today," Jia Jingwen declined the suggestion.

Zhou Yan did not express any opinion and silently walked out of the dressing room.

He clearly didn't want people to pay attention to him.

Watching Zhou Yan's departing figure, Jia Jingwen cursed inwardly—what a scumbag!

"I also twisted my back a couple of days ago and it hurt for half the night," Jiao Enjun began to complain after hearing that Jia Jingwen was injured.

"The action scenes in this drama have too many requirements, and there are many moves that I can't do," one person complained, and then a second person followed suit.

"Speaking of which, Zhou Yan's physical condition is really good," Zheng Jiaxin couldn't help but sigh. "I've never seen him tired, let alone injured."

"You're absolutely right. This guy is full of energy every day, like he has inexhaustible strength," said Jiao Enjun, who had more scenes with Zhou Yan, expressing his envy of Zhou Yan's physical abilities.

That's really amazing.

"It's good to be young," Lin Li sighed, noting that at his age, he was already at the point where he couldn't keep up with his strength.

"I don't think it has much to do with age; it's probably talent," Jiao Enjun retorted.

"I was young once too. When I was seventeen or eighteen, I wasn't as amazing as Zhou Yan. I don't know what this guy ate to grow up like this. His physical talent is explosive. He had such a heavy workload, but the next day, he was like nothing had happened." Jiao Enjun became more and more envious as he spoke.

No amount of money can buy you a healthy body.

As Jia Jingwen listened to the conversation, the events of last night involuntarily came to mind.

"This guy is really amazing!" Jia Jingwen thought to herself with admiration.

She has more right to speak on this than anyone else.

"What's going on today? Why hasn't Sister Qiang arrived yet?" After finishing her makeup, Zheng Jiaxin scanned the area but didn't see Xiao Qiang.

"It's really strange, Sister Qiang usually arrives the earliest."

"There might be special circumstances!"

Jia Jingwen had a vague guess in her heart, but she couldn't say the reason, so she could only echo the crowd!

……

Zhou Yan walked out of the dressing room and headed towards the filming location.

On the way, Zhou Yan happened to run into Xiao Qiang, who was late.

The other person had dark circles under their eyes, clearly indicating they hadn't had a good rest.

"Sister Qiang," Zhou Yan said, his heart skipped a beat when he saw Xiao Qiang's appearance, and he suddenly had a bad feeling.

"I hope Jingwen and I didn't disturb her last night!"

Xiao Qiang was filled with resentment. She glared at Zhou Yan and walked away.

"Well, it seems I really offended her." Seeing Xiao Qiang's expression, Zhou Yan knew his guess was true.

You must have disturbed their rest last night, otherwise they wouldn't be so resentful!

Xiao Qiang slowed her pace, waiting for Zhou Yan to come over and "comfort" her.

After all, he was the culprit who caused me to have a sleepless night!

But Zhou Yan never arrived.

Xiao Qiang couldn't help but turn around and look.

Zhou Yan strode forward with an air of indifference, leaving her with only his back to her.

"That jerk!" Xiao Qiang laughed in anger. He didn't even know how to cherish the opportunity he was given!

If Zhou Yan knew what Xiao Qiang was thinking, he would definitely cry foul. He simply felt that she was angry and that going over there at this time would only backfire.

In his past life, when he made his girlfriend angry, he would wait until she calmed down before trying to coax her.

……

"Sister Xiao Qiang, you've finally arrived."

"Sister Qiang, why are you so late today?"

"Sister Qiang, it's rare for you to be late!"

Upon seeing Xiao Qiang enter, the unsuspecting "crowd" began to make jokes.

Xiao Qiang smiled gently.

"I heard a cat meowing last night, and it kept me awake all night!" Xiao Qiang looked at Jia Jingwen with a half-smile.

Jia Jingwen blushed instantly and turned her head away from Xiao Qiang.

She knew perfectly well that Xiao Qiang was talking about herself.

"A cat meowing?" Zheng Jiaxin and the others were taken aback. "Was there?"

"I didn't hear you."

"I didn't hear it either."

"Sister Qiang, are you sure you heard me right?"

"Yeah, where did that meowing come from?"

Everyone was completely baffled.

There were no stray cats around them.

"Maybe I misheard," Xiao Qiang said, not saying much more.

……

Today's main focus is filming the love scenes between Li Xunhuan, Lin Shiyin, and Sun Xiaohong.

Xiao Qiang was listless and did not perform well.

Because of her injury, Jia Jingwen walks with an unsteady gait.

"You two should take a rest first," Cui Cheng said with a helpless expression.

What's the point of filming this?

Apart from Li Xunhuan, neither of the two female leads seemed to be in the right frame of mind.

"Thank you, director," Jia Jingwen and Xiao Qiang both breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that their performances were indeed off.

"Film the scenes with Li Xunhuan and Lin Xian'er first, then film yours tomorrow," Yuen Woo-ping immediately adjusted the scenes after learning that Jia Jingwen and Xiao Qiang were not in good condition.

"Okay," Cui Cheng naturally had no objection.

Jia Jingwen and Xiao Qiang sat together.

"Are you alright?" Xiao Qiang asked with great concern.

"I'm fine," Jia Jingwen said, enduring the pain.

"I made you lose sleep last night, but I just couldn't help it," Jia Jingwen apologized, feeling very embarrassed.

"You can experience it for yourself when you have the chance," Jia Jingwen encouraged.

"That's your man, how can you bear to part with him?" Xiao Qiang's face was full of disbelief.

She originally intended to steal it.

They wanted to scam them.

They wanted to launch a sneak attack.

I never expected Alyssa Chia to be so generous, "giving it away" to someone else!

"What do you mean 'my man'? His real girlfriend is Fan Binbin," Jia Jingwen said sourly.

Xiao Qiang was even more surprised, never expecting that Zhou Yan and Fan Binbin were in a romantic relationship.

"No wonder I didn't dare look at myself that day," Xiao Qiang suddenly understood many things.

"Don't worry, I'll avenge you," Xiao Qiang smiled, as if to say, "Leave it to me."

"Okay," Jia Jingwen said, with a "let's see what happens" attitude.
