Chapter 89: It’s So Satisfying!

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

Huo Yunshen had no qualms about avenging Xu Xiyan since the relationship between the two sisters was not good.

Whenever the boss Huo Yunshen demanded a retake, they would obey and do so.

Huang Guoqiang yelled “Action!” for the sixth time.

Slap! Xu Xiyan’s eyes filled with hatred as she delivered another slap. It felt so good and satisfying to slap Xu Xinrou!

Five years ago, Xu Xinrou and Chu Yuhe had betrayed her. Xu Xiyan remembered everything they had done to her and gave it all back in those slaps.

Xu Xinrou, this is the price you pay for bullying me!

They took the seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth takes. Xu Xiyan had returned a total of six hard slaps to her.

Xu Xinrou had slapped Xu Xiyan twice, and she returned thrice the number of slaps to Xu Xinrou.

Xu Xinrou’s cheeks were already swollen like sponge cake. Everyone on the set was stunned.

They were all confused. They had never seen the boss bully an actor this way before. What was wrong with him?

Xu Xinrou was an actress from Juxing Entertainment. Wasn’t Juxing a sister company of Yunhai Entertainment?

Huo Yunshen let out a sigh and finally said, “Okay, that’s enough. That was a good demonstration. But I still think there’s no need for the slapping scene. It’s pointless.”

Huang Guoqiang wiped the sweat off his brow and forced an amiable smile. “You’re right, President Huo, this scene is not necessary.”

Huo Yunshen was careful not to overdo it and burn bridges for his woman’s sake. We’ll see if Xu Xinrou dares to hit Xu Xiyan again tomorrow.

“Very well, please carry on. I’ll be leaving now.” Huo Yunshen took the script with him. “I’ll take this with me.”

“Yes, yes, please feel free!” He can have as many copies as he wants!

Huang Guoqiang personally walked Huo Yunshen to the exit and took the chance to make a request of him.

“President Huo, I was wondering if you have time to help compose a theme song in the traditional Chinese style for this drama?”

Huang Guoqiang had always wanted to meet Huo Yunshen personally and ask him to compose a theme song. If the song was composed by Huo Yunshen, it would become a classic hit just like his other works.

“Since when was I considered capable at composing music?” Huo Yunshen replied with a slight smile.

“President Huo, you’re being too modest. The world doesn’t know, but I’ve heard from the industry insiders that “Ni Yun” is your alias, and that your works have always topped the charts.”

Huang Guoqiang did not hesitate to beg him for a song because he had put a lot of effort into this film. He wanted to make a high quality and elegant Chinese historical palace drama, and it was necessary to ensure that every aspect of the shoot and post-production were sophisticated and impeccable.

In reality, not many people knew that “Ni Yun” was Huo Yunshen’s alias when he was a musician. Music began as a hobby for him, and he would only compose when he wanted to.

However, his works had unexpectedly attracted a group of loyal listeners and Huang Guoqiang was one of them. He had inquired about “Ni Yun” for a long time and finally found out that he was Huo Yunshen.

Now his identity had been revealed, it was pointless to deny it any further. Huo Yunshen replied reluctantly, “I’ll see what I can do.”

Huang Guoqiang was overjoyed. “I’ll take that as a yes, President Huo!”

After seeing Huo Yunshen off, Huang Guoqiang returned to the set. Xu Xinrou’s face was so swollen that he decided not to shoot any more of her scenes.

“Xinrou, you should go rest. We’ll shoot other scenes with the lead actors first.”

Xu Xiyan was in a very good mood after getting her revenge. She bounded cheerfully towards Huang Guoqiang and asked, “Director Huang, do I have to shoot any more scenes today?”

Huang Guoqiang had succeeded in getting Huo Yunshen to compose a theme song and he was in a good mood, too. “You can go back and rest as well. We’ll call you tomorrow.”

“All right then, I’m off.”

Xu Xiyan left the set happily, but on the way out she was intercepted by Xu Xinrou and Wen Li.

Xu Xinrou resented that she could not tear Xu Xiyan to pieces on the spot. She grabbed Xu Xiyan’s wrist and said, “Are you satisfied? Happy now?”
