Chapter 366 Entertainment Circle (39)
Shen Xichao greeted Qin Ziyue and then left with Yan Qing. He had already asked He Siran beforehand, and Yan Qing's scenes for today had been filmed.
The scenes to be filmed in the following episodes will be for other actors and will have nothing to do with Yan Qing.
Moreover, given Yan Qing's current condition, even if there are still scenes that need to be filmed, Shen Xichao would not agree to let her stay and continue filming.
On the way back, the atmosphere among the three of them was extremely silent.
He Siran drove very carefully, barely daring to breathe, only daring to steal a glance at Yan Qing and Shen Xichao's expressions while waiting at traffic lights.
Shen Xichao's handsome face was solemn, and his expression behind his glasses was unusually cold.
Although He Siran didn't know why Shen Xichao's reaction was so strong this time, she could tell that it was the result of Shen's efforts to restrain himself.
Thinking of this, He Siran felt a chill run down her spine. She dared not look at Shen Xichao anymore and turned her gaze to Yan Qing, who had been quiet all along.
At this moment, Yan Qing was tilting her head, looking at the scenery outside the window. Her features were delicate yet aloof. However, He Siran wondered if it was just her imagination, but she felt that Sister Qingqing seemed to be sad...
Before He Siran could continue thinking, the light turned green, and she had to refocus her attention on driving.
Just when He Siran thought the silence would continue until they arrived at the hotel, she suddenly heard Shen Xichao's voice.
"Ah Qing, withdraw from this filming. Don't worry about Qin Ziyue, I'll talk to him..."
He would make up for and resolve any delays in filming and any subsequent issues, as long as Yan Qing agreed, none of these would be problems...
After saying this, Shen Xichao gazed quietly at Yan Qing's eyes, waiting for her reply. In a corner where no one could see, his knuckles were clenched so tightly they turned white.
Regardless of Yan Qing's reaction, He Siran, who was driving, was so shocked by Shen Xichao's words that she almost drove the wrong way. Fortunately, she reacted quickly and turned the steering wheel back onto the right track.
But she still couldn't calm down.
Shen Ge couldn't possibly be unaware of the significant impact of quitting halfway through filming, yet he still said it, which proves there must be some inside story she missed. It can't really be just because of Actor Lu's presence...
Most importantly... based on He Siran's understanding of Yan Qing, no matter the reason, Sister Qingqing would never agree...
Thinking of this, He Siran waited for Yan Qing's answer with even more nervousness than Shen Xichao.
Yan Qingwei, who had been leaning against the car window in a daze, paused, turned to look at Shen Xichao, her expression somewhat indifferent, and shook her head in refusal, saying, "No, Brother Xichao."
Shen Xichao's expression was somewhat unpleasant, but he still tried his best to remain calm, looking at Yan Qing with a hint of pleading in his eyes.
"Ah Qing, let's choose another drama. I have a few others of the same type and theme..."
Before Shen Xichao could finish speaking, Yan Qing interrupted him, saying softly, "Brother Xichao, I know what I'm doing."
She had already guessed that Shen Xichao and the others might have misunderstood something, but she was not in the mood to explain now.
In the current situation, this misunderstanding is actually a good thing, so Yan Qing acquiesced.
Upon hearing Yan Qing's words, Shen Xichao could no longer maintain his composure, and his words became harsher: "Qing, how can I believe you have any idea what you're doing in your current state?"
Although he did drop everything and rush over because of a message from He Siran, his current statement is not entirely due to Lu Sinian.
Rather, it was the state that Yan Qing displayed.
Lu Sinian could tell that Yan Qing hadn't yet come out of character, so how could he not see it?
Shen Xichao had seen this kind of thing quite a few times. Some actors were able to adjust in time, but some actors would be trapped in the role for their entire lives, unable to break free...
What Shen Xichao feared was the latter.
That's why the suggestion was made to have Yan Qing withdraw from filming now, so that she wouldn't have to contact the people and things related to the drama, and that she would have a better chance of adjusting quickly.
Yan Qing's attitude was also firm: "I'm fine."
She pursed her lips and whispered, "Brother Xichao, I'll be fine in a bit."
Upon hearing the first half of the sentence, Shen Xichao almost couldn't contain his anger, not towards Yan Qing, but rather towards Lu Sinian.
If it weren't for Lu Sinian, A Qing wouldn't have been so determined to take on this role.
All the mistakes were Lu Sinian's fault.
But after hearing the second half of Yan Qing's sentence, the boiling anger was instantly extinguished as if by a splash of ice water, leaving him with an indescribable feeling.
His tone could no longer remain forceful.
Shen Xichao remained silent for a long time, his jawline tense, his voice sounding somewhat hoarse: "What if we can't get through this?"
He didn't want to think about this possibility, but he had no choice but to consider it.
Yan Qing's eyelashes trembled slightly, but she simply said, "Brother Xichao, I can still distinguish between what's on and off screen."
Seeing Yan Qing's resolute attitude and the fact that she seemed to have recovered somewhat, Shen Xichao had no choice but to give in. However, he could no longer leave Yan Qing alone on set.
Therefore, after pondering for a moment, Shen Xichao said, "Aqing, take a break after filming this movie. Don't rush into work. I'll be here. I'll continue to work on the set after this movie."
Upon hearing this, Yan Qing raised her eyes, looking somewhat surprised: "Has Xi Chao finished with his business?"
Shen Xichao rubbed his temples, his worry undisguised. He almost sighed as he said, "Aqing, I'm worried about you..."
He didn't say anything more.
Because whatever you say is somewhat inappropriate.
As for work, Shen Celiang assigned Shen Xichao several important projects to practice on as soon as he returned, so it was impossible for him to complete them so quickly.
However, he would talk to Shen Celiang about these troubles later and try to persuade him to give him more time.
Even if it comes at a higher price, it doesn't matter.
He really couldn't feel at ease without being there with the crew.
Meanwhile, Yan Qing seemed oblivious to his implied meaning. Her expression remained indifferent, and her slightly lowered eyelashes cast a shadow that completely concealed the emotions in her eyes, making them impossible to discern.
The car fell silent again for a moment.
Seeing this, He Siran, who was driving, breathed a silent sigh of relief; the result was much better than she had expected.
It's so good that Sister Qingqing and Brother Shen didn't start arguing.
She kept her job for another day.
It was so great that Brother Shen personally joined the crew afterwards.
With Shen Xichao gone for several days, He Siran was constantly on edge, not having a single day of peace.
Looking back at her former self, full of fighting spirit, He Siran just wanted to slap her past self and shout that she would never fight again and just want to be a good-for-nothing.
Being a driver is great! There's nothing better than being a driver.
