Chapter 62 Deliberately Picking On Her

Mu Xia nodded. "I've got it."

The filming started.

Mu Xia held an umbrella and hurriedly rushed towards her customer.

She managed to protect the customer from rain but half of her shoulder was soaking wet.

"Cut!" Both the film director and photographer were satisfied with her performance and applauded. "Very good! That was perfect!"

Finally, Mu Xia heaved a sigh of relief. It was half an hour earlier than the expected time to completion of the shooting.

Just as she was about to change out of her wet clothes, she heard Xiao Wei Sangqi's voice in the next second. "This clip is below acceptable. Reshoot!"

Obviously, Xiao Wei Sangqi was deliberately picking on Mu Xia. She frowned and looked at her. "Ms. Sangqi, our film director and photographer have just approved the clip."

The director nodded and said, "Ms. Sangqi, that clip was already perfect. Her emotional expression is on point. There's no need for a reshoot."

Xiao Wei Sangqi crossed her hands across her chest with her chin held high. "I'm the person in charge of this shooting. No means no."

Mu Xia gave Xiao Wei Sangqi a cold-eyed stare.

Initially, she wanted to be friendly with her on the surface. But it seemed that she didn't have to pretend anymore.

Mu Xia said, "Xiao Wei Sangqi, if there's anything I need to improve on the filming, please enlighten me. I'll definitely film it all over again until you're satisfied with the result. But if you were to make me reshoot for no reason, then please forgive me for not playing along with your unreasonable demands!"

「Unreasonable? How dare this little bitch say those words to me? Believe it or not, I will make up excuses to replace her with someone else.」

Xiao Wei Sangqi's face turned grim in an instant. But she noticed the strange way that the other crew looked at her. She had no choice but to swallow her words.

Suddenly, an idea came to her mind. She thought of an excuse and said coldly, "It's true that the clip was above average. However, I think there's something to be improved on, in terms of content."

"For example?"

"For example, you shouldn't have put up the umbrella for yourself after pushing the door. Instead, you should run towards the customer in the rain and open the umbrella at the same time. It will make you look even more worried for your customer."

"Ha…" Mu Xia couldn't help laughing upon hearing Xiao Wei Sangqi's words.

Her intention was too obvious. She was trying to make Mu Xia film in the rain again.

With this sudden change in weather, and the temperature had even dropped a few degrees. The artificial rain made it even colder. Moreover, she was feeling especially cold as she was on her period. She would have caught a cold if she were to continue shooting in the rain.

Xiao Wei Sangqi had it all planned out.

"What are you laughing for? Are you just going to stand there and waste our time? Reshoot now!" Xiao Wei Sangqi commanded with a domineering tone, providing no room for negotiation.

Xiao Wei Sangqi was the person in charge of the shooting. Apart from that, she had given the reason why they need to reshoot. Hence, the production crew had no choice but to let Mu Xia film it once again.

The director cautiously persuaded, "Ms. Mu, our person in charge… She is indeed demanding a little too much. But we're running out of time. Perhaps… Could you perhaps do it?"

Mu Xia looked at the pleading expression on the director and photographer's faces. She could have refused to listen to Xiao Wei Sangqi's orders. But if she rejected it, then the production crew wouldn't be able to complete their task.

She couldn't resist any requests from those innocent people.

Mu Xia heaved a sigh, "Fine. I'll do that again."

"Sure! You're so talented. I'm sure that you could ace it perfectly in one take!"

But Xiao Wei Sangqi fixed her eyes on her at the side. 「Can she really do that?」

Mu Xia wasn't so sure about it. She could only try her best.

Then, they started reshooting the scene.

Mu Xia was holding an umbrella with one hand while pushing the door with another hand. Without any hesitation, she ran straight into the rain.

Just as she was about to come in front of the customer, then only she put up the umbrella and protected her from the rain.

"Thank you." The customer thanked her with a smile. After that, both of them walked into Midnight Coffee Café side by side.

Finally, the shoot was over.

Mu Xia walked out of the coffee shop and asked, "Was that okay?"

"The outcome is amazing too. We could use that." As the director said, he subconsciously took a glance at Xiao Wei Sangqi.

Xiao Wei Sangqi was looking carefully at the video over and over again from the monitor.

Not long after, Xiao Wei Sangqi said, "No. Reshoot! Xia, you purposely avoided the puddle of water just now. You shouldn't do that. Instead, you should step into it. It will look more natural."

The director couldn't help but speak up for Mu Xia, "Ms. Sangqi, that… I don't think that is necessary."
