Chapter 628 - 628 Jealousy

628 Jealousy

The movie was not a depressing one. Qian Wu did not analyze Chen Guihua’s heart in detail and dig out her pain and struggle for the audience to see. However, it was the kind of sorrow that seeps into the soul, one that made Song Ci feel sad.

In Chen Guihua’s life, she was lucky to have received an education that gave her a dream. Unfortunately, the circumstances did not allow her to fulfill her dreams.

She had thought it had just been an unexpected accident when she failed the college entrance examination for the first time. However, it was from this accident that everything started to run like a train out of control, carrying her into the abyss. She could have had a clearer life, but she gave up her thoughts step by step and embarked on the path she did not want to take.

Sadly, at the end of the story, no one felt that she was living in an abyss, only that she had finally returned to normal. Even Chen Guihua herself accepted her ending and laughed with everyone.

She ended up killing herself that night.

Song Ci had been savoring this scene since she accepted the script. After delaying it for so long, it was inevitable that she would feel emotional. She chatted with Chu Yi about the two characters, Chen Guihua and Shi Qiang, for a while before reluctantly returning to her room.

Before she went to bed that night, Qian Wu had made the schedule and sent it to every actor.

Song Ci looked at the entire call sheet and took a picture for Lu Gan.

Lu Gan immediately called her. “Why aren’t you asleep? Don’t you start tomorrow?”

Song Ci was silent as if she was trapped in an abyss, unable to escape. She felt helpless. “I… was just discussing the script with Chu Yi.”

Although Lu Xiao knew Chu Yi was also in this movie, he did not know who Chu Yi was acting as, so he asked directly.

Song Ci said, “He plays Shi Qiang, a hooligan from the female lead’s village who envied her. It was also because of the female lead that he was suppressed by his parents. So when the female lead failed her college entrance examination, he took the lead to mocking her. In the end, after the female lead got married, they never contacted each other again. He could be considered as a supporting role with more scenes.”

Lu Gan was a little curious about how Chu Yi would play this role. After all, Chu Yi looked so upright and not like a cunning gangster at all. “What about the others? Are they also actors from Sunshine Media?”

“Not all of them. Director Qian Wu also brought in a few other actors. He intends to use some villagers as well.”

“The villagers know how to act?” Lu Gan was curious.

Song Ci smiled faintly. “You’ve underestimated me, haven’t you? This movie originally required some villager roles. Director Qian Wu had filmed this type of movie before, so he suggested that instead of letting actors play the role of villagers, it was better to let the villagers play the role themselves. Once they had a few training sessions and were familiar with the scenes, they could act as themselves. It’s a much better option than letting the actors play the role. Besides, it’s more realistic for a villager to act as a villager.”

“I’ll wait to see your finished product, then.”

“I’ll send you my costume photos tomorrow,” Song Ci said softly.

“Alright,” Lu Gan replied. He looked at the time again and urged, “It’s getting late. You should get some rest. You’ll be busy tomorrow.”

Song Ci lay on the bed. “I know. I just miss you.”

“Is that so?” Lu Gan was secretly delighted. He said deliberately, ‘I’ve only been gone for such a short time. Do you miss me that much already? Sigh. You like me too much, and so clingy too. What should I do?”

Song Ci turned over. “Won’t you worry if I didn’t miss you?”

Lu Gan smiled. “If you didn’t miss me, who would you miss? Chu Yi?”

“Look at you. Why are you always thinking about Chu Yi? I already said we’re friends.” Song Ci chuckled.

“Did you ever think about being more than friends?”

“No, I’ve never.” Song Ci quickly comforted him. “Sigh. You really are jealous. That’s what this is, jealousy.”

Lu Gan snorted. “Can’t stand jealousy? I guess you’re not allowed to eat any jelly when you get home, then.”

Song Ci laughed at his words. He was childish but also a little cute. In response, Song Ci was rather indulgent. “Feel free to eat as much as you want.”

“That’s more like it.” Lu Gan was satisfied.

“I’m going to take a shower.” Song Ci’s voice was sweet as if it was wrapped in sugar.

“Good night,” Lu Gan said to her.

“Night.” After Song Ci finished speaking, she put down her phone and walked straight into the bathroom, feeling much better.

After a night’s rest, Qian Wu and the actors attended a ceremony to commemorate the start of shooting early the next morning.

Qian Wu closed his eyes and prayed sincerely. ‘I hope filming goes smoothly and the film will be a success.’
