"Boss, you should know him, right? Zhang Yiyan, Director Zhang. He's on par with me."
"It's Director Zhang!"
"Who's on your level? Get lost!" Director Zhang glared at Director Chen. "You've won three fewer awards than me! If I weren't busy filming, this job would have been taken by you, you bastard!"
"That's just fate, Lao Zhang." Director Chen shrugged easily. "Getting back to business, Lao Zhang, you see I brought all the leaders here, so you should know what I'm planning to do, right?"
Director Zhang's gaze shifted to the young man's face. He thought for a moment, then scratched his head.
"Hey... Old Chen, it'll be really difficult to film the next scene..."
"Old Zhang, you're not going to make the boss wait here, are you?" Director Chen asked with a wicked grin.
"You son of a bitch..." Director Zhang looked at Director Chen's punchable face and instinctively wanted to raise his hand to hit him.
"Ah, I'm fine, I'm fine, I can wait here." Xiao Bai quickly raised her hands and explained to Director Zhang with a smile.
Xiao Bai's concession left Director Zhang unsure how to refuse.
Director Zhang looked at Xiao Bai's smiling face and sighed helplessly.
"Oh, it's nothing, it's just a pause." Director Zhang clapped his hands and called to the staff next to him, "Tell the extras to rest where they are, and then call Lu Ming over."
The staff received instructions and rushed to the scenic area.
A few seconds later, the extras in the scenic area sat down in a flurry, took off their hats, and began wiping the sweat from their faces.
Amidst the swirling yellow sand, the white figure, having received a message from the staff, finally stepped down from the trench and slowly approached the two directors.
As the slender figure slowly approached, Xiaobai couldn't help but feel a little excited.
The nurse from the TV series... I never imagined that a character I'd seen in a drama would actually appear before me. I'm a little excited; is this what it feels like to be a fan?
As the figure drew closer, Xiaobai began to understand the feelings of the fans at the entrance of the scenic area.
Surrounded by staff, Lu Ming walked out of the theater and stopped in front of Xiao Bai and the others.
Lu Ming was still wearing the nurse's uniform she had just worn, covered in mud and sand from head to toe, but amidst the mud, her sapphire-like eyes shone brightly with a gentle, girlish spirit.
"Director, you wanted to see me?"
What Xiaobai heard was a gentle and clear voice, like a spring.
"Lu Ming, let me introduce you. This is Director Chen, you've met him before." Director Zhang casually introduced Director Chen beside him, then introduced Xiao Bai with extra seriousness, "And this is a very important guest, he is..."
Director Zhang realized at this point that he didn't seem to know Xiao Bai's name, and he felt embarrassed.
Xiao Bai picked up where Director Zhang left off, and smiled slightly at Lu Ming.
"Hello, my name is Lu Lin."
"Hello, my name is Lu Ming..." When Lu Ming saw Xiao Bai, his sapphire-like eyes opened slightly, and then he reached out his hand to Xiao Bai.
Lu Ming's hands were quite delicate, with slender and beautiful fingers, and her exposed skin looked remarkably fair. Under normal circumstances, many people would probably be vying to touch her. However, Lu Ming hadn't changed out of her costume or washed herself, so her hands were still covered in undried mud and yellow soil. When she extended them, many bits of dirt fell to the ground, causing several people on the scene to fall silent.
Lu Ming looked at everyone with her blue eyes, then looked down at her hands.
"Ah." Lu Ming finally realized what was happening. She quickly brought her hands to her chest and opened her mouth to Xiao Bai, "I'm sorry... my hands were dirty, weren't they..."
"Makeup crew, come here and clean Lu Ming up," Director Zhang called out to the staff.
Staff members carrying basins of water rushed forward and quickly washed the mud off Lu Ming's face and hands. They then found a coat to cover the mud-covered nurse's uniform from behind.
The staff carried away the basins of water that had turned a muddy yellow color.
Lu Ming shook his head and opened his eyes again.
Lu Ming's face was clear and bright, like the moon, with beautiful features and a gentle, comforting smile on his face. However, this smile was tinged with obvious apology.
"I'm so sorry, I've been wearing this makeup all day, so I forgot that I was actually dirty..."
"Miss Lu Ming, you're so dedicated..." Xiao Bai said, looking at Lu Ming's features.
"I'm so sorry for the trouble I caused you just now..." Lu Ming carefully raised his hands, gently extending them towards Xiao Bai, "Um... if you don't mind..."
"I don't mind, I don't mind at all!" Xiaobai quickly reached out and shook hands with Luming.
Lu Ming took a step forward, a relieved smile on his face.
Seeing Lu Ming's smile, Xiao Bai's heart fluttered.
This Miss Luming... seems to be a very nice person.
"Then, Miss Luming, I..."
"boom!!!"
Just as Xiaobai was about to look up and say something to greet him, suddenly, a burst of fire appeared from the stage behind Luming.
To everyone's surprise, a violent explosion instantly overturned the trenches on the stage.
Chapter 2274 Buckhazda!
boom! ! !
An outrageously loud noise.
Bricks and tiles flew everywhere on the stage behind Lu Ming, and a wave of air pushed out in all directions. Xiao Bai and the others could even feel the ground beneath their feet tremble twice.
Lu Ming, standing in front of Xiao Bai, lost his balance and staggered, falling towards Xiao Bai.
Xiao Bai instinctively reached out to catch Lu Ming, and with a thud, the two of them fell to the ground.
Before Xiaobai, who was lying on the ground, could react to what was happening, he watched as a huge camera fell right in front of his face.
Xiao Bai was so frightened that he immediately closed his eyes.
But after several seconds, when the tremors on the ground stopped, Xiaobai did not feel any pain on her face.
Xiao Bai opened her eyes again.
Loki calmly caught the camera that was about to hit him in the face and looked at himself with composure.
"Master, are you alright?"
"Loki... thank you..." Little White breathed a sigh of relief and slowly sat up from the ground.
After sitting up, Xiaobai realized that Luming was lying on top of her.
Lu Ming looked rather disheveled. Although she hadn't been directly injured in the explosion, the body of a human girl was still too fragile. Her elbows, knees, and thighs were scraped raw from the fall, and blood was seeping out mixed with dirt.
Behind Xiaobai came Director Zhang's tense and furious voice.
"What happened?!"
"Props team! Where are the props team members?!"
"Where are the security personnel?! Come over here quickly! Is the film damaged? Are the personnel injured?"
"..."
Director Zhang's voice was trembling with extreme rage as he roared at his surroundings, directing the people on site.
Xiao Bai turned around and looked behind him. He saw that in the director's tent, a large number of staff members had fallen to the ground. The tent was about to collapse. Many of them were wearing uniforms and tightly holding onto the camera. Only Director Zhang was left standing on the ground, covered in dust and dirt. His face was flushed with anxiety, and his eyes looked like they were about to bleed.
—Did something just explode?
Xiao Bai looked at the scene around Director Zhang, murmured to himself, and then looked at the stage.
This sight stunned Xiaobai for a moment.
The trenches that had been used for filming were now completely shattered, with sand and mud splattered everywhere. Fortunately, Director Zhang had just given the order to rest, and there weren't many people left on set, so not many others were affected by the explosion.
As Xiaobai watched the performance, he felt a pulsating sensation beneath him.
Xiaobai looked down and saw Luming holding his forehead, slowly propping himself up. He first looked around in confusion, and finally met Xiaobai's gaze.
"Ah!" Lu Ming only snapped out of her daze when she saw Xiao Bai. She quickly stood up from Xiao Bai and said apologetically, "I...I'm sorry..."
"Miss Lu Ming————" Before Xiao Bai could speak, a heart-wrenching scream came from the side. A large group of people immediately rushed to Lu Ming's side with medicine boxes, shouting as they took out roll after roll of gauze and carefully bandaged the abrasions on Lu Ming's body.
At the same time, a man in a suit angrily ran up to Director Zhang, grabbed his tie, and started yelling at him.
"Zhang Yiyan!! What the hell do you do when you're filming! I put you in a movie, not a real war!!! What happened with that explosion just now? Do you know how much Lu Ming's body is worth?! If her face is injured, do you know how much it will affect her fledgling acting career?! What the hell did you sign the safety agreement for?! You wait, you just wait, I'll make you regret this today! I'll kill you—" The man in the suit cursed so fiercely that he seemed to want to throw Director Zhang back and forth twice. By the end, his eyes were bloodshot with rage, like a furious beast about to lose control of its emotions.
Director Zhang was shaken so badly by the man in the suit that he almost lost his breath.
The staff members rushed forward to grab the man in the suit's hand, but the man was incredibly strong and they couldn't pull him away no matter how hard they tried.
"……broker."
Just then, Lu Ming, who was surrounded by medical staff, noticed the situation inside the tent and gently called out to the man in the suit.
The deer's cry was not loud and was quickly drowned out by the noise in the noisy scene.
But as soon as the man in the suit heard Lu Ming's voice, his furious expression froze instantly. He then snorted heavily, shoved Director Zhang aside, and strode over to Lu Ming.
"Lu Ming!" The man in the suit stopped in front of Lu Ming, panting. "What is it?"
"...I'm fine, just a minor injury." Lu Ming raised his hand to show the scrapes on his arm, then pleaded with the man in the suit in front of him, "Don't make things difficult for the others..."
"But you almost did it just now!!" The man in the suit widened his eyes.
"It's alright, the injuries have all been treated." Lu Ming smiled apologetically at the man in the suit. "There are others who need treatment more than I do. Please take the medical staff to them."
"..." The man in the suit stood there, looking at Lu Ming with a complicated expression for a long time, then sighed helplessly and waved his hand at the medical staff, "Let's go!"
The medical staff reluctantly left Lu Ming's figure and followed the man in the suit towards the theater.
Lu Ming was now alone again. She looked down at Xiao Bai with a face full of apology.
"I'm so sorry I tripped you." Lu Ming helped Xiao Bai up with his bandaged hand, his voice full of shame. "I'm still very dirty... You'll probably have to wash your clothes again..."
"I'm fine... Um... Miss Luming, who was that big brother in the suit just now?" Xiaobai stood up from the ground, holding Luming's hand. She patted the dust off her bottom and looked curiously in the direction of the theater.
“He’s my manager.” Lu Ming touched his chest.
"He looks so fierce..." Xiaobai shrank his neck.
"I'm sorry..." Lu Ming said softly, then as if he remembered something, he quickly turned around and ran into the tent, coming to Director Zhang's side.
Director Zhang was severely threatened by the man in the suit and was sitting on the ground, somewhat disoriented. The staff around him seemed to have lost their leader and stood around him like headless flies, not knowing what to do.
Lu Ming stopped in front of Director Zhang, bent down and spoke to him.
"Director Zhang, I'm so sorry... the agent was very rude just now..."
Director Zhang raised his head in confusion, looked at Lu Ming's face, took a couple of breaths, and shook his head.
"No, it's nothing... I'm just a little tired..."
Director Zhang swallowed hard, then struggled to his feet and looked around.
"Old Chen! Old Chen, where are you?!"
"Here I am! Here I am!!" A middle-aged man with a grimy face and messy hair popped out of the tent.
"Go check on me, go check over at the theater..." Director Zhang said to Director Chen, who had suddenly appeared.
"Alright! I'll take care of it!" Director Chen gave Director Zhang an OK sign, then scurried out of the tent.
Director Chen stepped out of the tent and saw Xiaobai, who was covered in dirt. He paused for a moment, then gave Xiaobai an awkward smile.
"Boss... um... please excuse my poor performance."
"Director Chen, what just happened...?" Xiao Bai asked.
“We’re filming a war movie… there’s definitely going to be controlled explosions. Although we’re not entirely sure what happened, it must have been that the explosives were suddenly detonated.” Director Chen’s brow furrowed as he said this. “That shouldn’t be the case. It’s a large-scale war scene with hundreds of people. Given Zhang Yiyan’s personality, he couldn’t possibly be so indifferent. It’s probably a problem with the props department.”
"Filming...is it that dangerous?"
"Sigh... Well, it's not uncommon for people to die on set throughout history." Faced with Xiaobai's question, Director Chen didn't know how to answer for a moment. He scratched his head and thought for a long time, but could only helplessly shrug. "Anyway, I'll go check out the set first. There might be a secondary explosion there. Boss, you shouldn't go near there now."
After saying that, Director Chen called over a few staff members from inside the tent, and together they ran towards the set.
As Xiaobai watched Director Chen and the crew disappear into the theater, she turned her head and looked at Loki beside her.
Loki also tilted his head to look at Little White.
Little White gave Loki a wry smile.
"Loki."
"I'm here."
"Filming... is really not a safe job..."
"……Um."
