Chapter 56: Ridiculous

“Thank you,” Lu Zhen said to the light substitute the moment the two of them
brushed past each other.
The young actress, who was about 23 or 24 years old, looked at Lu Zhen in shock. Her eyes were momentarily confused. After a while, she stammered,
“You’re welcome.”
The director had found that actress among the extras at the last minute. She had almost no contact with Lu Zhen in the past.
She originally thought that Lu Zhen would be as arrogant and rude as the rumors online. She would not even take low-level actors like them seriously. She did not expect Lu Zhen to be so polite.
After Lu Zhen was ready, the camera began to move. The sprinkler truck sprayed rain from the sky. In just a few seconds, Lu Zhen was drenched.
Lu Zhen could not help but thank her because she thought of that stand-in actor. Perhaps she had already been drenched more than ten times before she came.
Lu Zhen adjusted her state and quickly entered her role. The female general she was playing ran in the night rain. Behind her, a group of assassins in black were chasing after her. Amidst the saber and sword shadows, the dangerous atmosphere was at its limit.
After one scene was filmed, the director called for a stop and asked the staff to help Lu Zhen change into dry clothes, blow dry her hair, and touch up her makeup before filming another scene.
About an hour later, Lu Zhen was tied to a wire. She stood on a cliff that was not considered high. A few cameras were facing her from afar, preparing to film her jumping off the cliff.
Lu Zhen looked down from the cliff and saw Lu Rou standing in the crowd not far away.
Lu Rou’s eyes burned with jealousy and anger, as if they were poisonous thorns.
Lu Rou naturally saw Lu Zhen’s post. At that time, she remembered that Lu Zhen had said in front of her that Jin Zhan wanted to buy her a ring.
At that time, she believed Jin Zhan’s explanation and thought that Lu Zhen was just spouting nonsense. Jin Zhan was not sincere to Lu Zhen at all, but Lu Zhen’s post today slapped her hard in the face.
Jin Zhan actually gave Lu Zhen a diamond ring? She actually didn’t know at all. She was simply like a fool who had been deceived!
Lu Rou was about to go crazy. She wanted to ask Jin Zhan for an explanation, but Jin Zhan had gone overseas to discuss the endorsement of a men’s perfume brand. This time was the opposite of her area. She couldn’t contact Jin Zhan at all.
Unable to get an explanation or vent, the anger in Lu Rou’s heart almost exploded. She immediately got into the car and went to the set, preparing to teach Lu Zhen a lesson.
Lu Zhen and Lu Rou’s gazes met in the air, and sparks flew.
Suddenly, Lu Rou smiled sinisterly at Lu Zhen, like a poisonous snake sticking out its tongue.
“All departments, get ready. Action!” The director’s voice sounded. The camera began to move in midair, filming Lu Zhen from afar.
“Jump, jump quickly! B*tch!” Lu Rou gritted her teeth and stared at Lu Zhen with red eyes. Because of her excitement and madness, the veins on her forehead appeared, and she looked a little scary.
Lu Zhen should have jumped off the cliff ten seconds after filming, but she did not move.
“Why isn’t Lu Zhen jumping yet? Is she in a bad state?” The director was also a little puzzled.
A few minutes passed, and everyone at the event location immediately started discussing. Some said that Lu Zhen was too afraid to jump down, while others said that Lu Zhen had delayed the rest of the production team. For a moment, there were all kinds of things.
Lu Zhen was originally standing at the edge of the cliff. After a while, she took a few steps back. It seemed like she was not going to film.
The director hurriedly walked to the cliff. “Lu Zhen, what’s going on? Are you afraid?”
Lu Zhen shook her head slowly and pointed at the wires. “There seems to be something wrong with the wires.”
“Something wrong with the wire? That’s impossible. Every time before hanging the wire, the production team would check it several times. Are you feeling unwell today and hallucinating?”
The director looked at the production crew not far away and was a little anxious. “There won’t be a problem with the wires. Hurry up and film. We have to finish filming your scene with Lu Rou today. The rent of this venue is very expensive. We can’t afford to waste time.”
Although the director had a good impression of Lu Zhen, if it involved such an urgent and serious matter, he would still put work first.
Lu Zhen shook her head. “Director, I can’t film it unless you get someone to check the wires immediately.”
“You! You’re simply fooling around!” The director was so angry that his face turned red..
