Chapter 55 Paying Homage to the Throne?

Hengdian.

Qin Palace.

This is the filming location for the interior of the Heartless Palace in The Journey of Flower.

Today's scene is Bai Zihua being poisoned by Bu Yuanding.

Jiang Yuan finished filming this morning.

Looking at Huo Jianhua, whose makeup was pale, with two large black eye sockets, and who looked like a zombie, he still couldn't hold back.

"It felt like everyone was smiling at me this morning."

Huo Jianhua sighed, "Is it really that funny?"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

Jiang Yuan's smile faded. "Brother Hua, how did you come to accept the makeup the crew gave you?"

"He's been poisoned, of course he needs to wear makeup."

Zhao Liying took a sip of the mineral water her assistant brought her.

Li Yitong, who plays the immortal Zi Xun, couldn't help but complain:

"But seeing Brother Hua's makeup always makes me want to laugh."

When I acted with Andy Lau before, I tried my best to control the urge to laugh.

"Is it really that bad?"

Huo Jianhua was a little doubtful about life, "But why, even though I'm a celestial being, am I still suffering from superficial poisoning?"

"It's alright, it's just what the plot requires."

Zhao Liying rubbed her chubby cheeks; actually, she felt that Huo Jianhua's look wasn't very good.

She even thought her own style was just average.

But even someone as big as Brother Hua remained silent and tolerated it.

She'll just have to put up with it.

"That's true, that's how the story is written, and the character designs are actually not bad."

Huo Jianhua shook his head, actually feeling that his look was a bit ugly.

But even Zhao Liying, a young woman, tolerated it.

Well, he'll just have to put up with it.

The two main characters seemed quite satisfied with their appearance.

Jiang Yuan expressed that he did not understand, but respected.

Like the makeup of Sister Meng and Xiaotian Chaoyue.

Based on the characteristics of the characters and the plot, he discussed with the makeup and costume team of Hua Qiangu.

Xiao Man, Hua Qiangu's makeup artist, is close to Jiang Yuan.

They also actively fulfilled the makeup requests of several girls.

"Dongfang, your skin is so beautiful, even more so than when you wear makeup."

Zhao Liying looked at Jiang Yuan's unmade-up face with envy.

"Damn it, why can't I be like you? I've already cultivated immortality."

After filming with Jiang Yuan for two months, Zhao Liying also learned about Jiang Yuan's natural beauty.

No skincare products or cosmetic procedures are needed; my skin and face are always in perfect condition.

"Bones, we're just filming a movie, we're not actually cultivating immortality."

Jiang Yuan stretched her arms; she was already used to the crew calling out the names of the plays sometimes.

Of course, his character and Huo Jianhua's character didn't have much interaction.

There is only hatred, but the play titles are rarely used.

Coincidentally, characters like Ni Mantian, played by Meng Jie, and Hua Qiangu, played by Zhao Liying, are mortal enemies.

The two couldn't possibly address each other by their character names on set.

"Sister Liying, that's not all, this guy can eat anything and not gain weight..."

Li Yitong and Zhao Liying started chatting away.

Jiang Yuan and Huo Jianhua exchanged a glance and tacitly withdrew from the main hall.

"Want one?"

Jiang Yuan watched as Huo Jianhua pulled out a pack of soft cigarettes from his elegant ancient-style trousers and handed one to him.

"You can smoke it yourself."

Jiang Yuan refused; although it was a soft-core Chinese liquor, he didn't like it.

"I still have cigars here."

Huo Jianhua assumed Jiang Yuan didn't like the taste of Soft Zhong, so he took it out from his other pocket.

No wonder people say Huo Jianhua is a heavy smoker; he always carries around cigars and soft-pack cigarettes.

Jiang Yuan shook her head helplessly: "My mom doesn't like the smell of smoke, and neither my dad nor I have that habit."

"I see."

Huo Jianhua put it away, saying, "I was being presumptuous."

Ma Ke was coming over when he bumped into the two of them and greeted them.

"Want one?" Huo Jianhua asked Ma Ke.

Ma Ke also shook his head: "Brother Hua, I don't smoke either."

At this moment, Li Yitong and Zhao Liying came out.

Li Yitong saw the cigarette Huo Jianhua was holding up, and Jiang Yuanma was right across from him.

But Ma Ke was ignored by her; she only had eyes for Jiang Yuan's helpless expression.

The girl, thinking she understood, quickly stepped forward to help Jiang Yuan out of the predicament, pulling her away:

"Brother Hua, I still have some questions about the script that I'd like to ask Jiang Yuan. I'll be going now."

On the way back to the rest area, Li Yitong frowned and asked in a low voice:

Did Huo Jianhua force you to smoke?

"No, they just asked if I smoke."

Li Yitong breathed a sigh of relief: "That scared me to death. I thought Brother Hua was the kind of person in the industry who would force people to offer him cigarettes and drinks, and that refusing to smoke or drink was disrespectful to him."

"Isn't it Huo Jianhua? Why is it Brother Hua again?"

Seeing Li Yitong's change of expression, Jiang Yuan asked with amusement.

"Oh dear, I was just thinking that Brother Hua wasn't a good person, and that's why I pressured you."

Li Yitong patted Jiang Yuan's arm, "I already showed respect for the elderly by not calling him 'old man' before."

While Hua Qiangu was filming in Guangxi in May, Huo Jianhua didn't join the crew and mostly stayed with "The Imperial Doctress".

In June, Hua Qiangu returned to Hengdian, and Huo Jianhua was shuttling between the two film crews again.

We went straight to the other side after filming here, and only finished filming there yesterday.

Li Yitong had absolutely no idea who this person was.

"Yeah, he's actually a pretty nice guy, quite funny."

Jiang Yuan helped Li Yitong tidy up her wind-blown hair. "But thank you for your help, Sister Xue."

"That's right, I'm the leader of the extras group, you dog of a man, you're even younger than me."

The eldest sister obediently cooperated with Jiang Yuan in tidying up.

After tidying up, he held Jiang Yuan's hand and squeezed it gently:

"You dog of a man, it's so relaxing to hold that in your hand."

Jiang Yuan noticed that her hands were being used as a stress reliever and looked at Li Yitong's hands.

Seeing this, Li Yitong couldn't help but ask in a low voice:

"Are my hands too big?"

"Slender and bony, that's attractive."

Jiang Yuan commented that Mo Tong's hands seemed longer than those of the average boy.

"It's 20 centimeters long, while the average girl's hand is only 17 centimeters. Many boys' hands aren't even as big as mine. I feel that big hands aren't delicate."

"But it's smaller than mine." Jiang Yuan stretched out her hand for her to compare.

Li Yitong immediately beamed with joy:

"Yeah, what do I care about other people?"

We arrived at our resting place.

Meng Ziyi and the others, who were filming with another director's B group this morning, haven't returned yet.

Jiang Yuan let Jingjing, who had returned first, tidy up the dining table.

"Where's Xiao Yu?" Jiang Yuan asked.

Jingjing glanced at Li Yitong cautiously, then saw Jiang Yuan nod before saying:

"Sister Yu received a call from Sister Nazha and went out to pick her up."

Li Yitong was taken aback: "Gulnazar?"

"Um."

She nodded quietly, hoping that her brother would say what she wanted.

"What's she doing here?"

Li Yitong hurriedly asked Jiang Yuan.

"They came to visit the set."

Jiang Yuan plopped down and took a sip of the water Jingjing handed her.

"Tch, bring it on, I'm not afraid of her."

Li Yitong pouted and glared at Jiang Yuan.

Seeing this, Jingjing quickly handed Xuejie some water to calm her down.

Jiang Yuan didn't understand Mo Tong's thoughts. Why did she suddenly ask if she was afraid of Naza?

Could it be that he's still traumatized by being an extra with Gulnazar last time?

"I'm exhausted."

"It's so hot."

"I want to drink water."

At this moment, Meng Ziyi, Tian Xiwei, and Yang Chaoyue came in and started drinking mineral water.

"Brother, where's Sister Yu?"

Seeing that Yu Ya was not there, Yang Chaoyue sat down next to Jiang Yuan and asked.

"I went to pick up Gulnazar," Li Yitong said quietly.

puff!

Mencius spat out the water in his mouth, but instead of wiping it, he asked urgently:

"What's she doing here?"

Jingjing shrank her neck. What was this sense of déjà vu?

"They came to visit the set and said they wanted to treat our crew to ice cream."

Jiang Yuan also felt that the scene in front of her was familiar, and glanced at Li Yitong.

Li Yitong wrinkled her nose and turned her head away.

"How could she come?"

Mencius paced back and forth, "Why did you come? We're not even acquainted."

"Are they here to cause me trouble? But that doesn't make sense; the school's online forum isn't a place for me to compare myself to her."

Meng Ziyi recalled the online forums and Weibo posts from her school last month.

Someone using a secondary account posted a message, using her status as a 13 campus beauty to criticize Gulnazar.

The worst part is that they photoshopped unflattering pictures of Gulnazar and then posted her beautiful ones...

This backstabbing and praise makes it seem like she hired someone to do it...

Damn it, who's so malicious as to try and frame her?

Outshining Gulnazar? Is this from the school's online forum? That's pretty brave.

But damn it, don't use her name.

"Waaaaah..."

Tian Xiwei calmly opened her mouth towards the fan.

The wind filled her mouth, and she made a "whoosh whoosh" sound like a little train.

Someone who didn't know better might think it was emitting steam to dissipate heat.

"Xiaotian, stop crying."

Yang Chaoyue pulled Tian Xiwei aside and pointed to Meng Ziyi and Li Yitong.

"Watch out, Sister Meng and Sister Xue might beat you up later."

Tian Xi blinked her almond-shaped eyes: "Why did you hit me? It has nothing to do with me if Gulnazar comes."

"If anyone's going to be beaten up, it should be Jiang Yuan."

Tian Xiwei said matter-of-factly.

Jiang Yuan looked at the young girl.

The girl noticed, and innocently smiled sweetly, revealing a dimple on her right cheek.

Li Yitong clapped her hands: "Great idea!"

"That won't work."

Yang Chaoyue let go of her snack-loving sister Tian Xiwei, moved her chair next to Jiang Yuan, and took out her phone.

"Brother, let's play Temple Run, one for each of us."

Chaoyue ignored her two older sisters and the wicked Xiaotian who came up with bad ideas.

It's fine if Nazha comes; she's not a stranger.

I've seen them before in Hengdian.

"Chaoyue, you are a traitor."

Tian Xiwei pressed her index finger knuckle against the dimples on her face.

Then I ran to the fan and pretended to be a little train, making "choo choo choo" sounds.

"Sister Meng, aren't you hot?"

Jiang Yuan gestured for Meng Ziyi to sit down, saying, "Nazha isn't here to cause you trouble."

Jiang Yuan was also unclear how Sister Meng could connect with Nazha as someone who was there to cause her trouble.

However, when he was an extra in Whirlwind Eleven.

It seems that Sister Meng is indeed the most timid one when facing Gulnazar.

Perhaps it's because she also has a delicate, aggressive appearance.

"Brother, you have to help me then."

Mencius recounted what she discovered about someone at school trying to elevate one person by belittling another and framing her.

"Don't worry, Nazha probably doesn't even know."

Jiang Yuan thought about it and realized that she had never heard Nazha mention it.

"Don't know what?"

Zhao Liying was passing by when she heard this and came in for a chat.

"Sister Liying, do you know Gulnazar?" Meng Ziyi asked.

Zhao Liying shook her head: "I don't know her. I've heard of her, but I've never seen her."

"Tangbao, are you a little train?"

Zhao Liying couldn't help but laugh when she saw Tian Xiwei whirring in front of the electric fan.

"Mommy's here."

Tian Xi stood up slightly and said playfully to Zhao Liying, "Did you bring me any food?"

"Yuanyuan, go next door and get my weight loss meal. Give it to my precious daughter."

Zhao Liying asked her assistant, Yuanyuan, to go and get it.

"A weight-loss meal... I think I'll pass."

Tian Xi made a face and looked at Jingjing, "Sister Jing, what are we eating today?"

"Home-style dishes. I almost forgot, I was clearing the table to get the food."

Quietly ran out to get the main course meal.

"Do you want some?" Zhao Liying asked the others.

"Is it a lot, Sister Liying?" Meng Ziyi asked.

"There are many, but they are mostly boiled and steamed vegetables."

"Then I won't eat it," Mencius said.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan laughed and said, "Sister Meng, if you don't want to eat less, fine. But why don't you eat more even after I asked?"

Meng Ziyi chuckled sheepishly, "I was just asking."

"I'll eat. I don't have much of an appetite anyway, so I'll eat something light."

Li Yitong and Zhao Liying were already quite familiar with each other.

"OK."

Zhao Liying smiled, found a stool, and sat down.

"Dongfang, your place is always bustling with activity. Would you mind if I ate here and joined in the fun?"

"It's not the first time, Hua Qiangu, you've learned to pretend, haven't you?"

Jiang Yuan let Chaoyue play with her phone.

In the past two months, the place where he rested has become like a public entertainment venue for the lead actors.

It's perfectly reasonable for Li Yitong and the others to be here; they were originally together.

But later, Zhao Liying and Jiang Xin also came to join in the fun.

Ma Kedu would often come over to play.

In other words, Huo Jianhua was busy and not on set, as he had to work two shifts and hadn't been there.

Jiang Xin was unable to attend because she had asked the production crew for leave to attend an event in the past two days.

"Chaoyue, what are you playing?"

Zhao Liying saw Yang Chaoyue and Jiang Yuan playing on their phones and asked.

"Temple Run"

Yang Chaoyue offered an explanation and showed it to Zhao Liying.

In the drama, she plays Qing Shui, who is Hua Qiangu's best friend for a long time.

The girls were all easy to get along with, and Zhao Liying was also very down-to-earth, so the female leads got along quite well.

……

Huo Jianhua passed by and saw the situation.

Are all the main actors resting together?

Huo Jianhua was unsure and asked the staff.

"No, Brother Hua, your resting area is private," the staff member said.

Huo Jianhua was taken aback. Was he that big of a star? But he was too special.

Jiang Ge was constantly engaged in battles and smoke, yet Hua Qiangu didn't even prepare a private rest room?

The staff noticed Huo Jianhua's question and quickly explained:

"Brother Wah, the lead actors all have their own rest areas."

Jiang Ge's side is where everyone goes to visit and chat.

"Is that so? Paying respects to the powerful?"

Huo Jianhua, a Taiwanese, understood; he felt that Jiang Yuan was like some local gangsters from Taiwan and Hong Kong in the past.

"Then I'll go and pay my respects too..."

……

"Sister Nazha, the boss's resting area is over there."

Yu Ya led Nazha toward the place where Jiang Yuan was resting.

"Is anyone bullying Yuanbao since it's his first time acting?"

Nazha and Jiang Yuan's agent, Yu Ya, are very familiar with each other.

However, most of the communication is limited to the internet; when they meet in person, they can't help but ask each other all sorts of questions.

"Don't worry, Sister Nazha."

Yu Ya said confidently, "Anyone who dares to bully our boss hasn't even been born yet."

"Yes, our Yuanbao is the best."

Naza is very proud; anyone who didn't know better would think she's that amazing.

"Can Xiao Chen manage all this by himself?"

Yu Ya said worriedly, "I'll go help her later."

"That works too. Actually, Xiao Chen just directs the people who deliver the things; someone else helps with the delivery."

Naza visited the film set to do Jiang Yuan a favor.

I bought a lot of things and had them delivered by car, like popsicles, mini fans, milk tea, etc...

To ensure that the staff of "The Journey of Flower" remember Jiang Yuan's kindness.

Naza knows all too well that it's easier to deal with the King of Hell than with his underlings.

Some crew members can easily take a few random, out-of-context videos and subject you to cyberbullying.

Therefore, we need to help Yuanbao handle this properly.

Although Yuanbao always thought she was a bit clumsy.

But she's experienced and actually quite smart!

"That's good." Yu Ya pointed ahead, "We're almost there."

When the two arrived at their destination, they saw Huo Jianhua come out.

When Huo Jianhua met Gulnazar, whom he had never seen before, he mistook her for an actress.

The veteran cadre understood:

"Are you here to pay homage to Brother Jiang too?"
