When you get your break, co with to C City.
After the booting ceremony concluded, the crew quickly headed into filming. Because Wu Yang opened an internet bar after he left the police, the crew had to prepare an internet bar set.
Pei Ying went to admire the famous Enron Internet Bar from the novel. The set was designed with a lot of detail, and it looked just as the book had described. She couldnt help snapping a photo and posting it to her Weibo.

After the fans saw her post, they ca to leave their impressions.
Pei Pei, what are you doing photographing the bar? You should photograph Emperor Mo!
Ah ah ah, Wu Yangs den! Pei Pei revealed it!
Users that dont post selfies are all rogues (bye)
Pei Pei, have you seen Emperor Mo?! Is he even more handso in real life?!
Before Pei Ying even got through one page of comnts, the assistant director called to her, Pei Ying, lets go!
Oh, okay! Pei Ying quickly packed her things and got into her van to follow the rest of the cast and crew.
Because the early part of the film didnt have scenes where the hero and heroine interact, the director split the crew into two teams to film separately and work more efficiently.
The first few days of filming went very smoothly. Even though they fild for long hours each day, Pei Ying still felt really good at the end of the day. But after the two teams joined back up under Director Zhao, the problems started to slowly leak out.
Pei Yings previous roles in TV dramas were mostly supporting roles or caos. She didnt have much experience with scenes between the lead male and female characters, let alone have experience working with such famous people. Shed prepared a lot in advance because she would be working with Mo Zhen, and yet, Mo Zhens strong aura totally crushed her.
Cut, the director called out, frowning at Pei Ying. Pei Ying, what are you doing? Wheres the loftiness from your audition? Why do you seem like a quail in front of Mo Zhen?!
. Pei Ying bit her lip as she listened to the director scold her.
Zhao Yues a very imposing character. Shes smart. When shes together with Wu Yang, their colors should match. The way you are now, he could just send you straight to jail! Whats left to act? We should just wrap filming now!
After Director Zhaos string of reprimanding, he picked up a bottle of water to drink. Take a ten minute break. Fix up your condition!
Pei Ying listlessly walked back to her rest station and her assistant handed her a bottle of water.
Thanks. Pei Ying took a sip and then started thinking about filming.
Its reasonable that an experienced actor like Mo Zhen would be able to slip into character relatively easily. But Pei Ying had insufficient experience for that. eting such an imposing actor as Mo Zhen, it was easy for her acting to slip up, to beco subpar.
Thats just how Director Zhaos scolding goes. Theres no standard, and its just about how loud he can be. Youve already been initiated by Qiao Yichen, so you cant possibly be affected by this level of scolding, Mo Zhen said casually, having walked up to her at so point.
Pei Ying was taken aback. She quickly stood up. Its not the directors fault. I just didnt do a good enough job. As she spoke, she seed to realize sothing. With a chuckle, she looked at Mo Zhen, But Producer Qiao really is more vicious compared to Director Zhao.
Mo Zhen nodded in agreent. Being able to co out of his recording studio alive makes you a warrior.
Pei Ying grew curious at his words. Has he scolded you before too?
Of course. He didnt give any face at all. But when I heard that he even scolds his wife about her singing, I felt much better.
Pei Ying chuckled lightly again. Mo Zhen looked at her and said, You sound a lot more natural talking to now, dont you think?
Oh Actually, she was still a bit nervous. Otherwise, she wouldnt be standing so straight and stiff.
An actors aura is built up over ti. You dont have enough experience yet, so its only natural that youd be affected by . But youll have to take care of that yourself.
I understand.
You know, you have your own aura as well. Youre just not putting enough confidence in yourself right now. Thats why it feels like Im completely taking over the shot.
Mmh Ill work hard to adjust myself.
Mo Zhen was precisely right. She wasnt confident enough. Although shed earned the director and Xing Xins approval to land this role, when she faced Mo Zhen, she really felt too weak. An actors confidence was probably built from positive audience reception and winning awards. She didnt have a prolific work history, and shed never won any awards. Even the audience only knew one or two of her roles
As she thought about it, her confidence seed to tank even more
According to psychological studies, ntal suggestion can bring out a very positive effect for people. Why dont you try telling yourself Im the best, Im the greatest.
Okay, Ill try. No matter how outlandish, she still have to give Emperor Mos suggestion a try. That was how hopeless she was.
Alright, lets continue! Continue! the director yelled. And then everyone got back to work. This ti, Pei Ying was better able to express her character, but the director was still not satisfied. Looks like your talk with Emperor Mo was a bit useful, but this take still doesnt cut it.
Pei Ying, .

And so, the days filming continued in this bumpy manner. After going through constant fumbles and receiving constant scoldings, Pei Ying finally got better and gradually found her own rhythm.
Filming continued into the night before concluding for the day. The director started to pack up as he told Pei Ying, You made a lot of progress today. I hope to see an even better performance tomorrow.
Ill do my best.
When Mo Zhen first started acting, the dia called him a flower vase too. (t/n: A person is called a flower vase when they look pretty/handso, but arent very good at their trade) Dont put him up on an alter. Relax and act naturally. This film is called The Perforr, and its in reference to Zhao Yue. You are the true main character, and this is your ho field.
I understand. Pei Ying repeated to herself in her head, Im the best. Im the greatest. Im the master on my playing field.
By the ti she returned ho, it was already past 1 in the morning. Pei Ying walked inside, making sure to keep her steps and movents light so that she wouldnt wake Song Nanchuan. But when she opened the door to the bedroom, she found that he wasnt sleeping.
Why are you still awake?
Song Nanchuan glanced at her and responded, You werent ho yet. How could I fall asleep? You really are busier than a CEO.
Recently, Pei Ying was returning ho later and later each day. As he sat at ho alone, he suddenly started to feel so regret that shed accepted the role of Zhao Yue. Seeing how unhappy he was, Pei Ying walked over and wrapped her arms around him. Chuan Chuan, you know that this film is really important to Universe. Everyones working really hard. But filming wont go on for too long. Well be done in two or three months.
Song Nanchuan found he couldnt get angry at her. He looked at her, and furrowed his brows slightly. Whats wrong? Sothing on your mind?
He was obviously the one who was sitting ho alone, so why did she seem a bit depressed?
Pei Ying sighed. I had my first scene with Mo Zhen today, but I didnt perform very well, so the director scolded all day long.
Song Nanchuan replied, Ah. Director Zhao has quite the temper.
Its not his fault though. Im the one who slowed down the filming progress.
Song Nanchuan hugged her and asked, Werent you acting well before?
Mmh. But acting with Mo Zhen puts a lot of pressure on .
Song Nanchuan thought for a mont. Should we change the male lead then?
Pei Yings eyes suddenly widened. To who?
Song Nanchuan blinked at her. What do you think about ? If youre acting with , you definitely wont be nervous.
Pei Ying stared at him and then laughed. The director would feel pressured then.
Seeing her laugh, Song Nanchuan relaxed a bit. Mo Zhens a regular person too. Dont be scared off by his halo. In my eyes, youre much better than him.
Mmh, Pei Ying responded with a smile.
Song Nanchuan pulled her up and pushed her to the bathroom. Go shower, and then get to sleep earlier.
Alright. Pei Ying showered quickly and then laid down in bed. She was really tired, and once her head hit her pillow, she fell asleep.

Song Nanchuan, on the other hand, kissed her and then reached his hand over to her collar.
Oh Pei Ying frowned and stopped his hand. Stop ssing around. After filming all day, Im really tired.
Although Song Nanchuan wasnt very willing, he pulled his hand back. You say that every day
His tone sounded like a bullied child. Pei Ying opened her eyes and turned to him. She said, Well have a break in two days. Ill spend ti with you then.
Song Nanchuan wrapped hands around her waist and kissed her on the lips. Stay with in bed all day then.
Pei Ying, .
She ignored him.
When he saw her close her eyes, Song Nanchuan called out sadly, Pei Xiujuan.
Bastard Song, why are you so annoying?! Pei Yings eyelids swiped open.
Song Nanchuan was a bit startled. He asked her, Whos Bastard Song?
Who else? You! If you call be Pei Xiujuan again, Im going to call you Bastard Song!
Song Nanchuan, .
What fierce revenge.
He smiled and bopped his nose to hers. Gently, he said, When you get your break, co with to C City.
Pei Yings mind was blank for a mont. Taken aback, she asked him, Why would we go to C City?
To et my parents, Song Nanchuan responded. He bit her lip lightly.
After a long while, Pei Ying finally ca back to her senses. She grew more nervous than when she was acting with Mo Zhen. et your parents?
Mmh. Were you planning to just live with like this for the rest of your life? Song Nanchuans pretty lips lifted up in a smile. After you et my parents, we can start thinking about the wedding.
Pei Yings lips closed and her eyes widened. She looked at Song Nanchuan lying so close to her.
Song Nanchuan took advantage of Pei Ying, while she was zoning out a bit. Pei Ying finally said, Ah ah ah, if you spring that on so suddenly, how am I supposed to prepare?
Song Nanchuan smiled and responded, Dont worry. Ive prepared everything there is to prepare.
But Im still nervous. What do your parents like? What if they dont like ?
Your legs are so long. Theyll surely like you.
Pei Ying, .
You think your parents are like you?!
Alright, Ill take care of this. You should go to sleep. You have to wake up early tomorrow.
Okay Pei Yings heart jumped in her chest. She was thinking that she wasnt going to be able to fall asleep, but she must have been extrely tired because she still fell asleep in less than two minutes.
Hearing her long and uniform breathing, Song Nanchuan gently kissed her forehead. Goodnight.
He pulled her into his arms and soon fell asleep as well.
