Chapter 128 Nezha Visits the Set
"In the past few days, due to my personal reasons, some negative rumors have appeared online, for which I am deeply sorry!"

Looking at the apology video Zheng Shuang posted on his personal Weibo account, Meng Ziyi glanced at Chen Xiu with a raised eyebrow, then took out his phone and called his mother.

"Hey, Sister Qian, go check Weibo, Zheng Shuang is apologizing to us."

"She'll apologize?"

Wang Qian's voice sounded very surprised. After a while, she asked again, "Ziyi, how did you get her to apologize?"

“I’m not that powerful. It was Brother Xiu who stepped in, found Zheng Shuang’s agent, and made her record a video to apologize.”

"Xiao Chen! Is he with you?"

Knowing it was her turn to appear, Chen Xiu walked over and sat down next to Meng Ziyi, replying, "Good evening, Auntie!"

"Okay, good evening. Oh dear, I'm actually fine. I'm so sorry to have troubled you with all this!"

"Resources only have value when they are used on people we value. How can you call it a waste?"

Chen Xiu's answer made Wang Qian on the other end of the phone burst into laughter.

"Haha! Your words prove that Auntie didn't misjudge you. Well, it's late, so I won't disturb your rest any longer. Goodbye."

After saying that, Wang Qian hung up the phone without even saying goodbye to Meng Ziyi.

Looking completely bewildered, Sister Meng leaned closer to Chen Xiu and asked, "Wait, didn't my mom just say she wouldn't disturb our rest? She was talking about us, right?"

"Oh, yes."

"Oh dear, no, how could she, how could she do this!"

Meng Ziyi looked at her phone with a mixture of shame and anger. Although it wasn't a secret that she slept with Chen Xiu, she couldn't just say it so openly!

Does Meng Ziyi have no dignity?

Seeing Sister Meng pouting and sulking, Chen Xiu put her arm around her slender waist, squinted her eyes and smiled, "So, should we rest or not?"

"do not want!"

Meng Ziyi closed her eyes and turned her head to the side, but when she felt Chen Xiuzhen let go of her hand, she immediately opened her eyes and looked over.

What came into view was Chen Xiu's mocking smile.

Realizing she had been tricked, Sister Meng frowned, pointed at Chen Xiu, and was about to shout something when Chen Xiu grabbed her hand and pulled her over.

Holding the silly beauty in his arms, Chen Xiu glanced at the sofa where the two of them were lying: "It's very soft here, but it's a bit too cramped. How about we move to a more spacious one?"

"Okay, pick me up."

Meng Ziyi raised her eyes, which were as shimmering as a lake, and tightened her arms around Chen Xiu's neck slightly to pull herself up. Then she used her long, straight legs to wrap around Chen Xiu's waist.

Reaching out to support Meng Ziyi, Chen Xiu steadily rose from the sofa and moved to the room, a battlefield familiar to both sides.

After a passionate on-site work instruction session, Meng Ziyi, his forehead covered in sweat, hugged Chen Xiu's arm and said, "Brother Xiu, will you always be this good to me?"

"Even when I'm not straight, I'm still very good to you!"

"Hmph~, no, can you please stop making inappropriate jokes all the time?"

After playfully patting Chen Xiu, Meng Ziyi immediately started massaging him, as if afraid that her force, like swatting away a mosquito, might cause him some harm.

Chen Xiu looked at her silently, without saying anything.

After rubbing her twice, the silly beauty suddenly started stammering again: "Brother Xiu, you're so nice to me. I feel like I'm getting a great deal by being with you."

"I don't have a price tag on me, so how can you expect to get a bargain from me?"

Touching Meng Ziyi's short hair, Chen Xiu said regretfully, "I don't know when the hair I cut for filming will grow back."

"My hair grows very fast, Xiu-ge'er, do you think I look better with long hair?"

"With short hair, you look more spirited than with long hair, but less delicate. You look good both ways, I like them both. Once your hair grows back, why don't you try pigtails?"

Chen Xiu raised her hands and pinched two small tufts of Meng Ziyi's short hair, wanting to try out the feel of pigtails in advance.

With that gesture and that longing look in his eyes, Meng Ziyi instantly understood the purpose of the twin ponytails and slapped Chen Xiu's hand away.

"You're the horse!"

"Hmm? You want to sit down this time?"

"Sit down?"

Seeing Chen Xiu lying flat on her back, Meng Ziyi instantly understood again, then blushed and stood up to walk over...

Zheng Shuang's apology video was released for three consecutive days.

Her fiercely loyal fans have completely fallen silent over these three days.

This outcome allowed Zheng Shuang to successfully end his days of public execution.

The production team of "Love O2O" was not actually affected by Zheng Shuang's fans, and the filming progress remained stable.

However, today's scene in the office where Xiao Nai kisses Bei Weiwei caused Chen Duling, who hadn't had more than 5 takes in a long time, to start a crazy NG mode, filming it seven times in a row without getting it right.

"Cut! Dudu, you're filming a kissing scene, don't stand there like a block of wood! You've kissed eight times already, how come you still haven't gotten it right?"

Lin Yufen unleashed her long-lost attack mode on the bewildered Chen Duling.

Being bitten in public again, Chen Duling's lips were a little swollen, but unlike last time, she didn't break down in tears. Instead, she felt a little shy. "Director, I'm sorry, let me adjust!"

"Alright, alright, hurry up and adjust it."

Chen Duling apologized, then walked to a corner and fanned her burning cheeks with her hand.

Seeing this, Chen Xiu, who had been "forced" to kiss the innocent girl eight times, also felt a little reluctant to continue kissing her.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Xiu came to Lin Yufen and made a suggestion: "Director, this scene is meant to show the deepening of the relationship between the male and female leads. Since the kissing scene is stuck, can we try a different way to perform it?"

"For example?"

"The background of this scene is that Bei Weiwei comes to Xiao Nai's company to start work. Chen Duling is currently wearing flat shoes. Do you think we can change it to Xiao Nai carrying Bei Weiwei to the desk, then taking out the high heels he prepared, and then putting them on her by hand?"

"Huh? This seems like a good idea!"

Having acted for decades, Lin Yufen had already constructed a corresponding image in her mind as soon as she heard Chen Xiu's description.

Xiao Nai, played by Chen Xiu in a simplified version of He Daoying, helps Bei Weiwei, played by Chen Duling in a bunny-like style, put on her shoes. This subtle display of affection is far more compelling than a straightforward kiss.

With the idea in mind, Lin Yufen began to consider the details for this scene.

The high heels are easy to find; the key is the lines that correspond to the scenes.

"The play can be changed like this, but what about the characters' lines?"

"In this scene, Bei Weiwei doesn't have many lines to begin with. If the director is comfortable with it, I can improvise as I please."

"Alright then, let's do it your way."

After spending more than a month together, Chen Xiu's professionalism and acting skills had made Lin Yufen feel at ease enough to let him improvise freely.

Lin Yufen called Chen Duling over and explained the revised scenes to her.

Hearing that there was no need to film kissing scenes anymore, the innocent-looking actress breathed a sigh of relief. As for the revised shoe-wearing scene, she didn't care much.

When filming actually began, Chen Duling realized that she had relaxed too soon...

After taking out the high-heeled shoe box, Chen Xiu lifted Chen Duling up like a child and placed her on the desk. Then he knelt down and took off Chen Duling's flat shoes.

Thankfully it wasn't Yang Mi...

Silently complaining to herself, Chen Xiu, without changing her expression, picked up a high heel, then grabbed Chen Duling's fair but slender ankle and gently stuffed her foot into the shoe.

When her ankle was grabbed, Chen Duling felt an electric shock, which made her breathing become rapid.

Chen Duling interpreted this feeling as a resistance reaction of the body when touched by another person.

However, when Chen Xiu put the second high heel on her and looked up at her with tender eyes, Chen Duling's heart still skipped a beat.

Lin Yufen, who had a panoramic view of the scene through the monitor, could sense, based on her years of directing intuition, that this shot would become a memorable moment in "Love O2O".

Every film and television work has memorable scenes.

For example, scenes like Consort Xi returning to the palace are memorable even if the plot is forgotten.

“Welcome to the company.”

Chen Xiu stood up, lifted Chen Duling off the desk, and said softly, "I have something to do. Wait here for me."

"okay, I get it."

Chen Duling nodded slightly, somewhat hesitant to look up at Chen Xiu.

This reaction is consistent with Bei Weiwei's situation in this scene.

As Chen Xiu walked out of the office, Lin Yufen's voice came out the next moment: "Cut! OK, this one's done!"

Hearing that the scene that had been NG'd eight times was finally over, Chen Duling smiled, but there seemed to be something else mixed in with that smile.

The office used for filming was a temporary rental. Once the shot was completed, the crew moved out.

When Chen Xiu returned with the others, she saw a very familiar tall figure from a distance, lingering at the gate of the film crew's location.

The person was wearing large sunglasses, but as they got closer, many people guessed her identity just by looking at her exposed face.

When she noticed everyone staring at her, she searched through the crowd and finally her gaze landed on Chen Xiu, so she ran over to her.

She stopped in front of Chen Xiu, slightly out of breath, and asked, "Chen Xiu, you're back from filming?"

Chen Xiu looked at her with some surprise and some confusion.

After a long pause, Chen Xiucai spoke with a distant and indifferent expression: "Your appearance has surprised me a bit, Nezha."

"I'm here to..."

Nezha paused for a moment, then looked at Lin Yufen, who was lagging behind, and said, "I came to visit Director Lin on set, and also to see you."

"Oh, thank you."

With so many people around, Chen Xiu couldn't say too much.

After thanking him, he went straight into the gate without lingering there.
