Yuan Lei frowned when she heard her assistant was saying Xie Ming's name. She unconsciously looked past her assistant.

  She was dumbfounded when she saw Xie Ming coming with Song Xiner and she was dressed up in her costume.

  But how can that be possible?

  They were expecting today's shoot to cancel because Xie Ming must have got some severe injuries and was expecting that Mr. Han might cut some of her scenes to not delay the release of the movie.

  Xie Ming raised her brows when she saw the shocked expressions on Yuan Lei and her assistant's face.

  She walked to them and smiled, " Good morning, Senior."

  "-_-"

  Yuan Lei was dumbfounded as it was the first time that Xie Ming had addressed her as 'Senior'.

  She awkwardly cleared her throat and said in a low voice, " Goo……good morning. You……are you okay?"

  Xie Ming's lips curled up in a smile as she said, " Yes. I am fine. Why do you ask? Or you were expecting that I won't be coming today?" She blinked her eyes as she asked……

  Yuan Lei pursed her lips and replied, " Why would I want that? It's just……I heard what happened with you at the shooting so I was worried about you. I thought you might need some time to hea……to rest."

  Yuan Lei looked at Xie Ming from up to down but didn't see any injuries so she changed her word from heal to rest.

  Xie Ming raised her brows and before she could say anything, Mr. Han called them to brief the scenario.

  Yuan Lei was glancing at Xie Ming all the time as she was still confused about how Xie Ming didn't get any injuries.

  Xu Lan pursed her lips as she noticed her actions and decided to tell Director Han later about it.

  …


  " Action" Mr. Han shouted after making Xie Ming and Yuan Lei stand at their positions.

  Xie Ming smoothly said all her dialogues without any fail but when it came to Yuan Lei, she was blank.

  " Cut."

  " Action."

  " Cut"

  " Action"

  Mr. Han was frustrated because after taking so many takes, Yuan Lei couldn't speak a line properly.

  She was either stuttering or standing there completely blank.

  " Yuan Lei, what's your problem? Did you not memorize your lines? It's not a complicated scene but why are you so lost today?"

  Yuan Lei pursed her lips as she felt embarrassed in front of all the staff members when Mr. Han shouted at her.

  She indeed didn't memorize her lines thinking that the shoot will be canceled but everything backfired……

  Not only Xie Ming came but she performed very well.

  " I am sorry, Mr. Han. I will try again." Yuan Lei apologized in a low voice.

  " Leave it. Everyone, let's take a 30 minutes break. We will try again after the break." He clapped his hands and asked everyone to take a break.

  " And you, memorize your lines properly. I don't want to see this kind of attitude after the break."

  Yuan Lei pursed her lips and nodded embarrassedly.

  Xie Ming walked to Yuan Lei and said in a low voice, " I am a sorry senior, for ruining your plan. "

  Xie Ming smirked after saying her words and walked past Yuan Lei.

  Yuan Lei:"-_-"

  Yuan Lei was speechless when she heard Xie Ming's words.

  ' Does she know anything?'

  ….

  After the break, the scene was passed after another few ngs.

  In the evening, Mr. Han gathered everyone and turned to look at Xie Ming, " Xie Ming, today you successfully completed your scenes. Congratulations."

  As said that, Xu Lan passed him a bunch of flowers which he gave to Xie Ming.

  " Even though your scenes were done, you have to come to the wrap-up party. Okay?"

  Xie Ming nodded. The shooting was not finished but only her scenes were done. The shooting is supposed to go for another two weeks but she doesn't need to come for that. Her scenes were all completed today.

  " I would have offered you out for a drink if not for that accident. Even though you're not heavily injured but you still came to work without taking proper rest. I am really impressed with your professionalism. The incident last time must be quite traumatizing." Mr. Han said with a bitter smile.

  Upon hearing this, Yuan Lei stiffened and pursed her lips. She glanced at Xie Ming who was smiling.

  " Thank You, Mr. Han. I have to thank you for giving me this opportunity. It's only because of you that I was able to explore many new things." She smiled while she looked at him gratefully

  Mr. Han nodded as he was pleased to hear her words. They cut the cake at the set to celebrate her last day at the shoot.

  ….

  Before Xie Ming could leave the set, she was called by Mr. Han. When she went to see him in his, she saw Xu Lan was also standing there beside him.

  The atmosphere was quite heavy.

  He made her sit and said in a low voice, " Xie Ming, Xu Lan told me that you're guys are thinking that Yuan lei was behind that incident, the other day?"

  She glanced at Xu Lan and nodded her head.

  " Yes. Even though I don't have any evidence, I believe it's Yuan Lei." she was now convinced seeing her shocked expressions.

  And other than her, there is no one at the set who could do such an outrageous thing.

  " Xie Ming, you know that she is this movie's female lead. I am not protecting her, but I just can't throw her out of the movie since we're almost done with shooting. We can't afford to have any bad publicity at this moment either." he was worried that Xie Ming would use SNS or the media as her source to take her revenge.

  " It will only affect this movie and the hard work that we all had put into this movie will go to waste."

  Xie Ming didn't say anything and listened to his words carefully. However, it doesn't mean that she agreed to all of his words.

  After speaking Mr. Han waited for her response and believed that she would understand him.

  " Mr. Han, I understand what you mean. You don't want me to do anything before this movie releases right? I won't do anything to her before that." Xie Ming smiled as she said that.

  "-_-"

  Mr. Han looked at Xie Ming with an unexplainable gaze. That's not exactly what he meant.
