Chapter 180: The Prince
Li Xing’er looked lethal and said, with gritted teeth, “I’m not sure what happened. But when I saw Mu Weiwei’s eyes, it was like I was possessed and I just could not bring myself into the right mindset.”
She had made preparations for this scene all the way till midnight and she didn’t even have a chance to show off any of her hard work.
“Is she trying to exceed you?”
“Impossible!” Li Xing’er denied resolutely.
Only those experienced and gifted actors would try to exceed the newcomers.
And Mu Weiwei as the newcomer would never make it, when she had never learnt how to act.
The reason why she kept failing the takes, was probably because she hated her too much, to concentrate on herself.
Without asking anything more, the agent said to her, as she saw the incoming call on the phone, “Take a good rest. I will call the company to decide how to deal with your fainting at the site. I will ask the company to control the comments and avoid any about your failed takes.”
….
Just because Li Xing’er passed out and went to the hospital, it didn’t mean that the filming stopped. They moved the tools to the plain area a few kilometers away.
They were ready to film the scene where Tang Shaoqi and Gu Changfeng were riding and attacking each other. This was the last fighting scene.
Since Gu Changfeng needed to have a new outfit, Gu Weiwei and the crew members were waiting on the site.
She led the horse that she was going to ride and presented some postures for Ji Cheng and Luo Qianqian to take pictures.
The more pictures Ji Cheng took, the more she liked them and she said, “Ah, Goddess you look so handsome. I wish I could marry you.”
“Stop it, I don’t want to marry you.”
The three of them were just talking cheerfully when Fu Shiyi’s fans were taking pictures of the horse Fu Shiyi was going to ride a moment later. Some even went bravely onto the horse’s back.
However, someone accidentally used the flash on their camera and it reflected in the horse’s eyes; it sprinted away at great speed, after a loud whinny.
The girl on horseback had not yet gotten down and she was crying out for help with her hands holding on tightly to the horse’s neck.
All the crew members were frightened and they all started to run after the horse.
But human beings could not catch up with a horse and all they could do was watch the frightened horse, dashing further and further away, into the distance.
When Gu Weiwei heard the voice of the girl, she pulled the reins and turned her horse around and galloped after the bolting horse.
Her horse caught up with the frightened horse and she shouted to the girl on horseback.
“Don’t be scared! Pull the reins to slow the horse down!”
“I am scared, I don’t dare to, I can’t! Help me!” The girl did not dare to open her eyes as she held onto the horse’s neck tightly.
Gu Weiwei looked into the distance and saw the dangerous hill that would totally bring them to disaster.
She made up her mind and rushed slightly in front of the other horse. She then flipped herself down off her horse’s back and instantly mounted onto the back of the frightened horse.
Then she held the reins and slowed the horse down. She managed to stop them whilst they were still in the safe zone.
Then she patted the girl who was still shivering and holding onto the horse’s neck.
“Now we are safe, don’t be scared.”
The girl was called Meng Xiaofei, and she was a loyal fan of Fu Shiyi. When she heard the gentle voice, she turned around and looked at the savior who had just saved her life.
Against the afterglow, a handsome young man in costume was smiling brightly and mildly at her.
Within that moment, she found herself travelling back in time and said in astonishment, “I fear nothing when you are around.”
That was what she was feeling at this moment.
As if she had just met the prince who had saved her life.
Although rationally speaking, it was a girl dressed in a prince’s costume… But she just couldn’t control her excited, beating heart.
