I just want to sell products, but you're forcing me to perform talents.

Chapter 362 Did you go to work overtime writing a script last night?

The next day, Ye Xian arrived at the film set looking exhausted.

Everyone in the crew looked at him with strange expressions.

"Is there something on my face?"

Ye Xian was somewhat confused. What was wrong with these people?

There's a lipstick mark.

Chen Xu stood in the corner of the yard, cracking sunflower seeds as he made a startling remark.

"What? How is that possible?"

Ye Xian quickly looked down and turned on the mirror function on his phone. When he saw that there was nothing on his face, he looked at Chen Xu with a black line on his face.

"Huh? Where did it go? Am I seeing things? Sigh, I had insomnia last night, watched all the exciting action movies from Donghe Province. Sorry, Brother Xian."

Chen Xu was talking nonsense, and everyone on the set burst into laughter.

Li Xin stood to the side, speaking sarcastically: "What kind of action movie is it? Is it the kind with two people? With clothes on or without? Tsk tsk tsk, how did you see it if someone wasn't live-streaming?"

Everyone burst into laughter again.

"Director Jia! Director Jia? Come out here right now and give these idle people some screen time! Don't let a single one of them get away!"

Enraged, Ye Xian unleashed his ultimate move, leaving everyone to despise this fickle investor who had betrayed his principles for the sake of beauty.

Chen Xu snorted, feigning curiosity: "Huh? Why haven't I seen the landlady today? Is she sick? Can't she get out of bed? Did you give her an 'injection,' Brother Xian?"

Ye Xian pointed at Chen Xu, then suddenly realized she couldn't respond to her.

When a woman drives, there's absolutely no room for a man.

After a few seconds of hesitation, Ye Xian snapped, "A shot? Do you want me to give you a shot?"

Chen Xu's pretty face immediately turned red.

"Hahaha! Chen Xu actually lost! As expected of the boss! This is the first time in so long that I've seen Chen Xu lose an argument! Indeed, only Jia Baoyu can tame Lin Daiyu!"

"Brother Xian, I also want to get a shot. Which part do you think would be best?"

"Where we go isn't important, what's important is finding a quiet place, like a yacht?"

Li Xin and Duan Fei's back-and-forth banter made everyone feel like they couldn't laugh anymore.

This morning, it felt even more entertaining than watching a palace drama.

"Let's begin the performance!"

Ye Xian felt she couldn't stay any longer and quickly went to put on makeup.

A bunch of seasoned female drivers!

Everyone behind him burst into laughter.

……

When they arrived at the dressing room, Jiang Tian and Liu Xiaoxiao were already putting on makeup. Jiang Tian glanced at Ye Xian and said quietly, "How rare. Brother Xian, who is always so diligent, is actually the last one to arrive."

"Of course! I don't know which little vixen drained me of my energy last night!" Liu Xiaoxiao drove without any restraint, making the makeup artists almost burst out laughing.

"I'm saying, this matter can't be resolved, right?"

Ye Xian slumped wearily in the chair, letting the makeup artist apply his makeup: "It's just a one-day vacation, what's with all this?"

Jiang Tian and Liu Xiaoxiao exchanged a glance, both seeing the teasing in each other's eyes: "Come on, tell us about this wonderful day. There was an amusement park, a diving trip, and an attack. Tsk tsk tsk, it could be a movie."

"You know what, I actually finished writing the script last night!"

Ye Xian looked smug.

"What? You were working overtime writing a script last night?"

Jiang Tian and Liu Xiaoxiao looked completely incredulous, and the makeup artists were also stunned.

Everyone in the company, and even many people online, know that you went to celebrate Qingmei's birthday yesterday!

On such a good day, you're going to write a screenplay?

You straight man, you deserve to be a virgin your whole life!

"Hmm? What's wrong? Don't you want to hear the script?"

Speaking of the script, Ye Xian suddenly perked up: "I'm planning to name this script 'The Vanished Her.' What do you think? Doesn't it immediately grab your attention?"

Jiang Tian and Liu Xiaoxiao slapped their foreheads at the same time.

Impressed!

I'm speechless at you, a lifelong single!

If you continue like this, you'll likely face more than just her disappearance.

Rather: They disappeared!

……

Despite their complaints, the two women quickly realized that this script, leveraging the hot topic of Ye Xian's attack, might become a bestseller.

Jiang Tian chased the makeup artists out, then approached Ye Xian and said, "Brother Xian, you must be exhausted from last night. Let me give you a shoulder massage."

"Why are you massaging my shoulders? You need to rub my lower back!"

Liu Xiaoxiao is a first-rate driver, and Ye Xian hurriedly sat up straight: "Okay, okay, I'll give you a general overview of the plot. I still need to polish the script later. If possible, I'd like to start filming this movie as soon as possible."

The two big stars immediately perked up, moved closer to Ye Xian, and listened attentively as he explained the plot.

When Qiu Qing came in with the script, this was the scene she saw.

"you……"

Ye Xian was talking enthusiastically when he saw Qiu Qing come in. He invited her to sit down with him: "Last night I wrote our experience into a script, and I'm telling it to them now to see how well they accept it."

Qiu Qing nodded and sat obediently to the side, looking left and right.

Yes, it's a proper script reading.

……

Today, the production team of "Dream of the Red Chamber" is filming a major scene involving the raid on the Grand View Garden, including night scenes. So the schedule is very tight all day, but Ye Xian still managed to squeeze in some time to come to the live broadcast room.

Good morning everyone. I'm sorry to have worried you all yesterday. Things are basically resolved now, and an official announcement should be released soon. Please stay tuned.

"I can't go into details right now because it involves another family, and the matter is a bit complicated. Whether I reveal anything or not depends on what the parties involved have to say, so please don't pressure me!"

"Qiu Qing's birthday? How did you know? Hahaha, we did go to celebrate her birthday yesterday. What did we do? I won't tell you, guess for yourselves."

……

[Raised you with my own hands: I heard it's a case of husband and wife murder. How can there be men like this these days? I wonder if they'll end up with the death penalty!]

[If there's a ball, be tough: Who knows if the woman is the problem? Didn't you see even Brother Xian didn't dare to express his opinion? Let's wait for the official statement; then we'll know who's right and who's wrong!]

[My girlfriend's diabetes gave me cavities: I'm relieved to see that Brother Xian is safe and sound. But I just want to ask, Brother Xian, why don't you have those deep eye bags? You must be wearing makeup to cover them up! I bet Brother Xian stayed up all night last night.]

[My boyfriend's diabetes caused my cavities: I don't believe it. No proof without pictures, unless Brother Xian provides evidence.]

……

Seeing that the comments in the live stream were going off-topic, Ye Xian quickly stopped them, saying, "Alright, everyone, stop making wild guesses. Let's wait for the official announcement. It'll probably take a long time to film today, so watch it when you have time, and if you don't, just do your own thing."

Ye Xian gestured for Wang Feifei to take the live-streaming phone and then immersed himself in today's filming.

Meanwhile, the release of a short video caused a huge uproar across the internet.
