Chapter 157: Probably dreaming
Ji Shiting had increased the budget by twenty million just to let her rest for three days?
Ye Shengge remained dazed for a long time after the call ended.
Should she think that this man was too rich or should she feel that it was really fortunate being his wife?
If this went on, she was going to get more and more greedy.
Ye Shengge heaved a sigh of relief and lay on the bed staring blankly into space. She didn’t think about it until she received Xu Xiangjie’s email.
And then, she fell asleep unknowingly.
In the midst of her slumber, she felt someone taking her phone away and kissing her forehead.
She was probably dreaming.
——
The shooting location of ‘Xue Ning’ was in the Film City in the outskirts of the city, and it was only an hour away from the city center, but for the sake of shooting, the staff basically stayed on the set.
As the lead actress, Ye Shengge was a newcomer, but she was given an independent suite. Her assistant Lin Qi had arrived yesterday, and she bought her a lot of daily necessities according to her preferences.
After settling down, she went to the makeup room to change her costume. Coincidentally, her first scene was with Su Han and Mu Xiaoya.
Su Han was already prepared after she arrived at the set. She was sitting on a chair in the middle of the stage, waiting for her.
She smiled provocatively when she saw Ye Shengge. She knew that Ye Shengge had connections, so Su Han wouldn’t make things difficult for her on the surface, but she looked down on Ye Shengge even more. She wanted to take Ye Shengge a notch down.
Ye Shengge could tell what was going on, so she said calmly, “Sister Su Han, please guide me along.”
“My pleasure.” Su Han smiled and said, “Director, we can begin now.”
Xu Xiangjie, who was standing behind the camera, said, “Don’t you need to rehearse a little first?”
“No need,” Su Han replied at once, then turned to Ye Shengge. “Do you need to?”
Su Han was confident in her acting skills.
Ye Shengge smiled and said, “No need.”
Xu Xiangjie had no choice but to instruct the crew to get into position. Su Han, who was surrounded by the maids, walked along the stone path.
“Xue Ning” was about the legendary story of the lead actress, Xue Ning, who rose from an ordinary maid to becoming the empress dowager. After the power struggle in the harem, every stage of her life was full of exciting drama, and the roles required high acting ability.
This scene was the start of Xue Ning’s change in fortune. The role played by Su Han, Concubine Cheng Wan was getting older and she was about to lose her favor. Because she didn’t have any children. She had no choice but to recommend a newcomer to the emperor. If the newcomer was fortunate to give birth to a prince, she would raise the child herself.
TThe newcomer needed to be young and beautiful. She also needed to be timid and honest. Cheng Wan was worried about the candidate. She knew that she had to do this for the rest of her life, but she couldn’t help pushing it away.
Su Han had dealt with both emotions very well. In just a few steps, she had shown the pride and power of being a concubine, and she also showed the anxiety, pain, and hesitation of that person.
As she walked closer, the maids in charge of the shower knelt on the ground, including Xue Ning.
