689 A Million Times for You 51 (1/2)
”Okay.”
Tuoba Rui turned around to leave without saying another word to her.
Shi Xiaoyu sat by the bed and reached a hand out to stroke her own face with a menacing look of vengeance in her eyes.
”Someone, come in!”
”Madam.” The bodyguards standing by the door immediately entered.
”Bring me an ice pack.”
”Alright.”
——
The filming of the drama series officially began.
All the actors and crew members had joined the production unit, and the first day of filming will take place on the next day.
The lead actor and actress were staying in two adjacent rooms in the hotel.
They arrived at the television filming studio and would have to check into the hotel at night.
After lunch, Yan Ge instructed his assistant, Xiao Li, to call Fang Erlan over for a massage.
Xiao Li immediately proceeded to do as instructed. Two minutes later, Fang Erlan entered while Xiao Li returned to his own room.
Since it was rather warm inside the room due to the heater, Fang Erlan removed her quilt jacket and left her buttoned shirt on. Staring at Yan Ge, who was lying on the bed, she said, ”Don't you want a shoulder massage? Sit up straight.”
”Just do it while I'm lying down. Give me a back rub too. Do it with more strength.”
He has so many requests, Fang Erlan thought to herself, pouting her lips in annoyance.
She walked toward the bed in her slippers and reached out to begin massaging him with great force.
She began rubbing his shoulders with her tiny hands before making her way down his back. She could feel his body tensing up the moment she pressed down on his lower back.
”Was I using too much strength?”
”No, it's just perfect. Keep going,” said Yan Ge, lying on his stomach with his eyes tightly shut in immense pleasure.
Thus, Fang Erlan continued to massage him with brute force.
”Did you specifically take up massaging lessons?”
”No, I just picked it up and got better after massaging my grandmother several times.”
”Continue to massage me until I tell you to stop. Got it?”
”Sure.”
Yan Ge felt his eyelids getting heavier as a sudden weariness began to set in.
After massaging him for about half an hour or so, Fang Erlan discovered that he had already dozed off. However, she did not stop and continued massaging him, but with much lesser strength than before.
Yan Ge woke up after the hour-long nap, only to find that she was still standing beside the bed. To the shock of Fang Erlan, he turned his body over abruptly, causing her hands to land just below his abdomen.
Further below would be his…
She swiftly retracted her hand, blushing red with embarrassment,
”You've already massaged me for so long, you may stop now.”
Fang Erlan gave her aching hands a little shake and said, ”I'll be returning to my room, then.”
”Since there's nothing else for us to do and filming is about to begin tomorrow, why don't we rehearse our lines together right now?” he suggested, leaning against the headboard sluggishly. He then instructed, ”Bring me the scripts on the table.”
She turned around to do as instructed.
”Bring yours here too.”
”There's no need for that. I've already memorized all my lines for the first ten episodes.”
Shock and surprise were written all over Yan Ge's face. Unlike Fang Erlan, who had memorized all ten episodes in one go, actors and actresses would usually just skim through the script and memorize only their respective lines right before the filming of each scene. Besides, it was a tough feat since she was the lead actress and would have a lot more lines to memorize.
However, he soon thought that it was understandable for her to put in extra effort since it was her first time being cast as the female lead. He casually glanced through the script for the scene where he would be starring alongside her, before putting the script away and beginning to rehearse the lines with her.
