925 A Million Times for You 287 (2/2)
”Psht…” Jing Yang snorted with laughter and continued, ”This is my first encounter with someone who self-proclaims that they're not to be trifled with.”
Fang Erlan rolled her eyes at him.
”I came to make a cameo appearance purely because of Director Jing. I've watched the movies he's directed and I was really impressed. Don't get the wrong idea and think that I came because of you.”
”I didn't get the wrong idea, so will you kindly stop sitting beside me, Mr. Jing?”
He stood up and took a glance at her before saying, ”The more you behave like this, the more I'd like to get to know you better, Fang Erlan. I want to find out what kind of a woman you are.”
”You're nuts,” she chastised.
He smirked and proceeded to look for Jing Tian.
Fang Erlan stared at his back and turned away a long while later.
She cocked her head over to discover that Yan Ge was already sitting on the chair beneath the umbrella, the script in his hands.
There were still more than ten minutes before filming was to begin.
He turned over and said calmly, ”Let's rehearse our lines.”
Fang Erlan expressed assent. The scene to be filmed next would require both of them to be suspended on the wire.
The lines were rather racy.
They began narrating their lines. Yan Ge said, ”I feel such a strong urge to tell you my innermost thoughts whenever I carry you in the sky.”
”What are they?”
”Make a guess. Three words.”
”I love you.”
”I know.”
”You set me up again.”
”…”
After they'd said their lines, Jing Tian approached them while wearing a cap. ”I'm going to brief you guys about today's scenes. I don't have to explain much to Yan Ge since he's already very experienced with wires. I'll place emphasis on you, Erlan. You must take note of your actions when you're suspended from the wire and try to appear as natural as possible. Don't be so stiff…”
He then demonstrated the actions to be performed while they were attached to the wire. Fang Erlan bore his words in mind.
The scene was filmed at a river.
Yan Ge picked Fang Erlan up in one arm and leaped up, after which the wire pulled them up and allowed them to be suspended in the air.
Just as they were about to narrate their lines, the wires holding Fang Erlan in place broke all of a sudden. She shrieked at the top of her lungs, after which Yan Ge tightened his grip and hugged her tightly. ”The wires are broken!” she yelled.
She grabbed onto Yan Ge tightly for dear life, sounding extremely frightened and anxious. After all, they were suspended in mid-air several meters off the ground. If he had not hugged her tightly just now, she would have definitely plunged into the deep river.
Jing Tian hurriedly ordered the crew members to put them down.
Fang Erlan was terrorized; her heart was ricocheting strongly against her chest.
Jing Tian questioned the relevant crew involved. The crew member frantically explained that he had no idea what happened and that he had checked the wires properly beforehand.
