"Then just act your part well," Meng Nianchu replied irritably as she heard Linda deliberately pick a fight again. Frowning, she retorted and didn't want to entangle with her any longer. She bypassed Linda and was about to walk away.
But Linda was determined to confront her. "Aren't you supposed to be so great? You can even shoot my scenes! Since you're so capable, why don't you just shoot all of them? Stop pretending!"
"Linda, are you trying to start trouble?"
Meng Nianchu had just finished shooting two consecutive scenes without a break. Her throat was dry and painful, and she was exhausted all over. Hearing Linda's constant nagging, she felt a splitting headache and had no intention of arguing with her.
Linda deliberately raised her voice. "What? Are you, Meng Nianchu, going to bully me in the crew just because you have a lot of fans?" Her voice was just loud enough for the nearby actors to hear.
Meng Nianchu put her hands on her hips and let out a sneering laugh. She took a step closer to Linda. "If you want me to shoot your scenes, that's fine. Give me all your pay. I'll not only finish your remaining scenes but also the ones you've already shot if you want."
She spoke firmly, word by word. Linda stiffened her neck and was not happy.
"Why should I give you my pay?"
Meng Nianchu's eyes instantly turned cold. "Then shut your mouth!"
"I don't have time to waste with you. If you want to shoot, then do it. If not, give up your position quickly. Don't occupy resources and act like a bully! I'm warning you for the last time. If you cause me trouble again and make me unhappy, I won't spare you!"
She was so tired that she didn't have the strength to say another word. After issuing the cold threat, Meng Nianchu walked towards the lounge. As she passed by Linda, she deliberately bumped her arm hard, as if venting her dissatisfaction.
Linda staggered a step before regaining her balance. Anger burned in her heart, and her hands hanging by her sides clenched into fists.
Bitch!
The director, seeing Linda's bad mood, didn't dare to stay in front of her. He immediately slipped away to find other actors to prepare for filming.
By the time Linda wanted to vent her anger on the director, he had already disappeared.
She was extremely angry.
They're all bitches!
After this incident, Linda seemed to be deliberately going against the director. No matter how simple the scene was, she wouldn't act well. Standing in front of the camera, she couldn't even recite her lines properly.
The director was really exhausted.
After another half - month of such trouble, the last scene of this drama was finally filmed. The director let out a long sigh of relief.
Finally, he didn't have to serve Linda, the little princess.
After the filming was completed, the crew wrapped up. After all, it had been a drama that lasted for several months, and everyone had developed feelings during this long - time together.
So on the day the crew finished work, the director proposed to arrange a wrap - up banquet the next day and specifically invited Meng Nianchu to come!
The director was so enthusiastic that Meng Nianchu, who originally wanted to have a good rest at home and spend a day with her son, had no choice but to grit her teeth and agree.
After returning to Shangting, Meng Nianchu told Mu Junze about this. Mu Junze immediately suggested that they could take their son with them.
Meng Nianchu thought it made sense. She silently planned to pick up the child from the old mansion early the next morning and then go to the crew.
Suddenly, Mu Junze, who was eating, said, "You can't take care of the child alone."
Meng Nianchu took a sip of porridge and looked at him expectantly.
What did he mean?
Just as she thought Mu Junze might want to go with her, Mu Junze immediately answered himself, "I'm free from work tomorrow anyway. I'll go with you."
As if afraid that Meng Nianchu would misunderstand, he added, "I'm just worried that you won't be able to take care of the child alone."
"Oh," Meng Nianchu chuckled. She couldn't stand Mu Junze's duplicity anymore and directly exposed him. "If you want to go, just say so. You act as if I wouldn't let you go if you said it directly."
"I'm not."
"Who would believe you?" Meng Nianchu pouted. She didn't believe Mu Junze's words at all!
And the fact proved that no matter how inconsistent Mu Junze was in words, his actions were extremely honest.
Although he said he was reluctant to go and it was just for the sake of the child, he still got up early in the morning, changed into a luxurious and delicate suit, and even specially sprayed hairspray to style his hair.
Compared with Meng Nianchu, who was wearing casual clothes to take care of the child, Mu Junze seemed to be the one invited by the director to the wrap - up banquet.
They picked up the child from the old mansion and arrived at the crew at 9 a.m. As soon as Meng Nianchu got out of the car with the child in her arms, she was surrounded by the young girls in the crew.
Their little hands stroked Mu Shengnan's little face, and they gave compliments full of admiration. "This child is so beautiful!"
"Yeah, she looks exactly like Mr. Mu and Nianchu! I wish I could have such a beautiful child!"
"Some people on the Internet used to say that this wasn't Nianchu and Mr. Mu's child. If this isn't theirs, then whose could it be? She's so lovely!"
Hearing their compliments, Meng Nianchu was also very happy. With a smile on her face, she sat down on a chair.
Bailing saw her and immediately sat down beside her.
Cute and pink - cheeked children are always the focus of attention. Meng Nianchu had only been sitting there for a few minutes when she was surrounded by a crowd. There was no room for Mu Junze to sit.
"Junze, you're here!" Linda, who had just arrived at the crew, saw Mu Junze and was immediately overjoyed. She quickened her steps and walked to his side.
Seeing Meng Nianchu having a great time with the actors in the crew, she took the opportunity to sneer. "I don't know what Meng Nianchu is thinking. Her husband is here, but she doesn't even spend more time with you. She's having so much fun with others."
After sneering, she put on a smile and said enthusiastically, "If I had known you would come, I would have come earlier."
She shyly tucked the hair behind her ear. "I wasn't feeling well when I got up this morning. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come so late."
As if deliberately wanting Mu Junze to hear the words "not feeling well" clearly, she deliberately emphasized them.
Mu Junze frowned deeply as he listened to her non - stop chatter.
Since he didn't respond for a long time, Linda said again, "There are many interesting things on the set. How about I show you around?"
"Shut up," Mu Junze finally couldn't bear it anymore.
Linda wanted to say more.
Mu Junze gave her a cold and disdainful look and said disgustedly, "Why are you so annoying?"
"I..." Linda felt wronged and her little face fell. "I just wanted to talk to you."
