Chapter 5 Destiny Restart
The long-sleeping corpse suddenly came back to life, and many people on the set exclaimed in surprise. Fortunately, the camera did not capture this accident, so the director's "click" sound was delayed.
The martial artists were also very professional. They still held the wire tight with a common hatred for the enemy and sent the boss with a side kick towards the heroine.
At this critical moment, a black shadow flashed like a ghost and blocked Sen Ya in front of her with lightning speed.
So the golden right foot that should have hit Sen Ya's abdomen hit Xia Chi's golden right cheek hard. After a muffled sound, Xia Chi's eyes went black, and he let out a heart-wrenching scream, and fell to the ground like a kite with a broken string.
Everyone was stunned, and Senya screamed in fright.
The scene was in chaos.
The first one to rush over was the executive director, his hoarse voice hurting people's eardrums.
"What's going on? What's going on? What's going on?"
After pushing through the crowd and seeing Xia Chi lying on the ground, his tense shoulders visibly relaxed - fortunately, he was just an unknown person, the crew could not afford more negative news.
When he thought about the dangerous scene just now, anger suddenly surged in his heart.
"Xia Chi, what's wrong with you? You can't even pretend to be a corpse properly. If you want to die, stay away and don't waste everyone's time."
The executive director was holding the script in his hand and threw it at Xia Chi without thinking.
"etc."
A big, fleshy hand stopped him.
Du Binquan.
The executive director was silent as a mouse, and tactfully took a step back, leaving the main stage to the leader.
Du Binquan's violent temper is well-known both inside and outside the circle. He usually doesn't like this bully, and it seems that he wants to teach him a lesson personally today.
The executive director sneered inwardly: Humph, you are in trouble, kid.
But Du Bin rolled up his sleeves and bent over——
He carefully helped Xia Chi up as if he was holding a birthday star.
"Are you okay?"
He was as kind as an old father and even dusted off the floor.
Huh? The style of the painting is wrong.
Why did Grumpy Bear suddenly change into Yang Mi?
Du Binquan looked around and saw that everyone was still standing there in a daze. He immediately put on a stern face, showing his noble character.
"You're all just standing here watching a show? Are the little actors not human beings? No one cares if they get hurt?"
He waved his hand.
"Go, get the medicine box. My nose is bleeding."
"oh."
The executive director woke up as if from a dream, turned around in a daze to get the medicine box, and couldn't help looking back as he walked.
Something's wrong, something's terribly wrong! I heard Du Binquan cursing so early in the morning. Maybe he took the wrong medicine now.
Du Binquan was actually also confused.
He was just sitting in front of the monitor, nibbling sunflower seeds and wondering if the boy had fallen asleep after being silent for so long. But the next second, Xia Chi's face suddenly appeared in the camera lens, and he got himself into trouble, frightening him so much that his cola sprayed all over the screen.
What is this living father up to?
Things are different now, the divine beasts sent from heaven must still be treated with respect, why would they be kicked until they bleed?!
Du Binquan glared at the boss stand-in who was wearing smoky makeup.
The stand-in A Biao was startled and quickly waved his hands to distance himself from the matter.
"Huh? It's none of my business! I didn't do anything. The action was designed that way. I was just filming my scene, but he insisted on putting his face on the soles of my feet."
“…”
This sounds very awkward, but it seems... there's nothing wrong with it.
Du Binquan glared at the martial artists again. Several of them also looked innocent and explained at the same time.
Martial arts actor Xiao Zhang: "We were filming according to the procedure, and Xia Chi suddenly appeared."
Wu Xing Xiao Wang: "I was so scared, I almost lost my strength!"
Wu Xing Xiao Wu: "Xia Chi, what on earth do you want to do?"
“Ah…I…”
Xia Chi was still tongue-tied.
But his mind was working quickly, and he immediately turned around to look at Sen Ya after he came to his senses.
[Oh my god, big star, you're already pregnant, don't you know it?! ! !]
[Why are you still using wires to shoot fight scenes? Do you want blood to splatter on the set?!?!]
Sen Ya was being untied from the wire. When she heard this, she staggered and almost fell.
"ha?!"
Du Binquan: “!!!”
Xia Chi wiped the blood from his nose and breathed a sigh of relief.
[I was so scared! I was so scared! I was wondering why there was a bloody disaster so early in the morning. It turned out to be waiting right here. Fortunately, I was quick to reach out and save the child. Oh, Amitabha, oh, Amitabha.]
[Senya, Senya, you're so thick-skinned that you can run a horse. Your period is so late, don't you think about why?]
[Forget it, a hardworking woman like you doesn't even have a menstrual period anymore.]
[Luckily, I was able to save you from this. Otherwise, with this amount of force, you'd either have a miscarriage or a hysterectomy. Damn it!]
“…”
Sen Ya could no longer stand and sat down on the ground. Even Zhang Ningyuan beside her couldn't hold her back.
A faint feeling of heaviness and distension came from her lower abdomen, and she recalled her recent unusual sleepiness and nausea...
Senya's face turned pale.
Could it be that he was right?!
When Du Binquan saw Sen Ya's face as pale as gold paper, he knew that something was wrong.
"Quick, call 120."
The executive director, who rushed over with a medicine box, looked bewildered: "It's just a nosebleed, what's the big deal..."
"Are you blind?" Du Binquan cursed. "Didn't you see Sen Yadu... was terrified. Hurry and send him to the hospital!"
All staff: “???”
This makes even less sense.
Everyone knows that Senya is a famous iron lady in the circle. She never cried out in pain even when she broke her ribs while hanging on wires. How could such a trivial matter be so serious that she had to call an ambulance?
The director must have taken the wrong medicine today.
Everyone's attention was focused on the Iron Lady Senya, waiting for her to reject the director with righteous words.
Everyone was wrong. Senya couldn't even stand up. She was shaking as she held her assistant's hand. She seemed to be scared out of her wits. Her voice was trembling. "The director is right. I need to go to the hospital for a checkup. No need for 120. I have my own car. Come on, let's go now."
The nanny car screeched to a halt in the middle of the set. Before anyone could react, Sen Ya slammed the door shut and drove away without a word.
The set was completely silent.
After a while, someone murmured quietly: "Sister Sen Ya today... why is it like she saw a ghost?"
The executive director felt a chill down his spine as he watched Sen Ya leave in a hurry - that was the main star that the investors had spent tens of millions to hire. If something really went wrong, the entire crew would be in trouble.
The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. He turned around and vented his anger on Xia Chi: "Are you fucking sick?! If anything happens to Sen Ya, even if she sells you out, she won't be able to pay for it. You'll pay for the loss of the entire team today with your life!"
Xia Chi opened his mouth: "I clearly..."
Saved her life.
The words came to his lips but he swallowed them back.
If that kick had landed, the trending searches would have exploded in a matter of minutes. #森雅片场落灭# would have stayed on the radar for three days and three nights, and the crew would have been shut down for at least two months. Can you afford that?
Du Bin was sweating profusely.
We can't afford to delay it, we really can't afford to delay it. Now the film and television industry is in a cold winter, and investors are running away faster than rabbits. If something happens to Sen Ya again, this show will be buried.
Du Binquan looked at the divine beast with tears of gratitude.
The divine beast was scratching its ears and cheeks.
[This is fucked! How am I supposed to explain this? So many people are here, saying Sen Ya is pregnant? Saying I dreamed it? Who would believe that?]
[Help! I'm getting scolded for doing good things without leaving my name behind. My pants are covered in mud, and my crotch is shit.]
[But Sister Sen Ya didn't even know she was pregnant, so how could I possibly know better than her? Pregnancy before marriage is something that shouldn't be publicized. She's currently a popular celebrity with a bright future, so whether she wants to protect the pregnancy is still a question...]
[Forget it, forget it. I have to die alone. I absolutely cannot tell anyone about Sister Senya’s secret.]
Xia Chi once again looked like a martyr who had spent the rest of his life in prison.
"I, Xia Chi, swear that if I reveal this secret to anyone else, I will make that person bleed from all seven orifices, have their intestines ruptured, and die!"
Du Binquan: “???”
Thank you, you good man who deserves to be struck by lightning.
Xia Chi bowed and apologized to everyone honestly.
"I'm sorry everyone, I just had a hysterical attack and delayed your filming."
The executive director insisted: "Just say sorry and that's it? Everyone's hard work for the whole day has been wasted, do you know that?"
The martial artists immediately chimed in:
"That's right, it took up so much of our time."
"What are you thinking?"
…
Xia Chi lowered his head, his fingers twisted white.
Just pretend that you are a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water.
"Ahem."
Du Binquan suddenly cleared his throat: "Alright, alright, let's end this matter here. Fortunately, there wasn't any major chaos. Let's all go home."
The word "sheltering" is almost written on his face.
Now that the director has spoken, everyone disperses.
Only Xia Chi was left facing Du Binquan alone, staring at him.
Xia Chi stole a glance at Du Binquan's unpredictable face - his small eyes were narrowed into two slits, just like a butcher weighing pork on the chopping board.
This familiar feeling of oppression caused him to have a PTSD attack instantly, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back.
[Isn't your Doberman going to have another rabies attack? Oh my god, even the rabies vaccine can't protect you? ]
[The dog catching team, come and take him away! ]
[Don't come over here! Your mouth stinks, like an old zombie unearthed from the Qing Dynasty, holding an 800-year-old pickled mandarin fish that was soaked in gutter oil, jumped out of the sewer, and then fell into the garbage pool with a plop, mixed with stinky tofu and rotten durian, stirred and fermented, and then stuffed into the rectum and finally farted! Understand?]
Du Binquan's face turned red after being scolded, and he unconsciously took a step back.
Oh my god...
However, he is still very cultured towards the mythical beasts. As long as he can save the crew, you can carve your true feelings on a tombstone or erect one on my grave.
"Xia Chi, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you... you really don't know the seriousness of the matter, you..."
He adjusted his attitude and started to smile in a way that he thought was friendly.
"How can you take on a role with your face so swollen? Hurry up and find an ice pack."
"ah?"
Xia Chi was shocked.
Du Binquan's last bit of goodwill was exhausted.
"What? Get out of here now."
"oh."
Finally finding the familiar safe word, Xia Chi jogged away.
The executive director's eyes popped out. "So gentle? That's not in line with Director Du's usual style."
Could this kid be Director Du’s illegitimate son who was brought up among the people?
It seems that I can't offend him easily in the future.
"Um... Director Du, are we still filming?"
Du Binquan: "Let's shoot first. Use a body double to shoot all the long shots we can. We can add Sen Ya's close-up later."
What's going on with Sen Ya? I have to go to the hospital later.
He glanced again in the direction Xia Chi left.
"Find a replacement for Xia Chi as well."
