"I'm so sorry, Mr. Han Ye. I'm just so nervous."

Han Ye smiled at Bi Hexian, "It's fine. First-time stage fright is quite common. Let's work together, okay?"

Everyone, including Director Shen and Bai Yunyu, was shocked when they saw Han Ye smiling at Bi Hexian, this new actor. He even encouraged the young actor to work better and acknowledge the stage fright!

Han Ye was always cold to everyone. He would do everything flawlessly in his entire acting career, and he had little to no tolerance for lousiness. One lousy acting from an actor would immediately ruin Han Ye's mood.

That was why Han Ye didn't have many friends. The only person he could call a friend was Huang Jinren because Huang Jinren also had the same professionalism as him. 

But now, the miracle had happened, Han Ye finally favored someone. Although, nobody in this movie set really liked Bi Hexian. 

They all thought this young man was just an inferior version of Bai Yunyu. 

Yunyu could only stare at those two in anger mixed with jealousy. Han Ye Gege never gave him a smile, let alone a word of encouragement. He never even said thank you to Bai Yunyu for everything he had done. 

The last good thing Han Ye Gege ever did to him was when Yunyu was so exhausted after helping Han Ye's props for his shoot, so he asked Han Ye Gege if he was allowed to sleep. 

Han Ye told him to sleep beside a trash can, so he wouldn't disturb anyone. 

It was really mocking Yunyu that he was no more than trash. The more you think about it, the more you'd feel hurt by Han Ye's words. 

Jia Jie darted her eyes at Yunyu, who looked at Han Ye and Bi Hexian full of envy and contempt. Even Jia Jie felt it was just too much for the young man. Yunyu was obviously the one who deserved that kindness the most, but Han Ye was just too much of a bastard. 

Jia Jie walked towards Yunyu and stood right in front of him, "Yunyu, I don't think you should watch this…."

"Eh? Why not, Jia Jie? Is there something wrong?" 

"Your expression, you cannot hide your jealousy, Yunyu…." Jia Jie said truthfully. She didn't want Yunyu to keep enduring his sadness for the sake of an ungrateful bastard like Han Ye.

"Both what if Han Ye Gege needs something while you're still busy? If I'm always hanging around him, he can always use me whatever he wants, right?"

"Yunyu, it's not worth it…."

Yunyu sighed, "Jia Jie, I know that it's not worth it. I know that Han Ye Gege would never like me back. But I still want to be of use to him."

"Yunyu, you can be of use if you're not here. Don't you see that Han Ye will only beat you if you stay around him?" Jia Jie seriously didn't want to sugarcoat anything for Yunyu. He was too pitiful.

"Jia Jie, I know that. We all know that. But why are you telling me this? Does Han Ye Gege ask you to kick me out?" 

"Yunyu, I just don't want you to get hurt. I know you're in pain while watching this right now."

Yunyu decided to zip his mouth and stay in place, trying to ignore Jia Jie despite what she said was all true. 

Jia Jie only sighed in pity. She was just trying to protect Yunyu from the pain he experienced right now. But it seemed that Yunyu had decided to be a full-on masochist.

**

One hour had passed, Huang Jinren was already preparing for the scene, but when he entered the set, he saw Bi Hexian and Han Ye still hadn't finished the first take.

Literally, after one hour and so many wasted takes, this young actor couldn't even finish one short scene!

Everyone has been pissed off already, especially Director Shen, who had no time for incompetence. 

"Ahh, I messed up again~" Bi Hexian messed yet another take, and Director Shen slammed the papers he held to the ground. His face was flushed out of anger. 

He got up from his chair and walked towards Bi Hexian, "USE YOUR BRAIN! HOW COME YOU CAN'T EVEN FINISH ONE SCENE! EVERYONE IN HERE IS FUCKING TIRED BECAUSE OF YOUR INCOMPETENCE!"

Director Shen's loud voice thundered in the movie set, and nobody dared to stop him. Besides, they were also pissed off at this incompetent young man.

Bi Hexian's body trembled immediately, his face paled, and he stammered to apologize, "I—I'm so sorry, Director. T--This is my first time, I… I got so nervous—"

Han Ye sighed and got up from his position. He patted Bi Hexian's head gently and said to Director Shen, "Don't be so harsh on him, Director. He is just a newbie, pouring his heart into this role. I just need a few pointers first."

"Pointers? Do you know that we don't have much time, right?!" Director Shen said curtly. He glared at Han Ye as well, "And you said don't be so harsh on him?! Han Ye, what are you thinking! This is a professional field, not an acting class! And you don't even pity Yunyu at all, even though it's also his first time acting!" 

"Obviously, because he is trash. This young man, Bi Hexian, has great potential in the future. His presence in this series might also be a good sign since the role of Bai Shijue is very short, yet impactful."

"Then Bai Yunyu is perfect for that role! You're frustrating me and everyone here, Han Ye!" Director Shen yelled out loud.

But the cold and nonchalant Movie Emperor only stared at Director Shen coldly, "So, what do you want to do? If you want to kick this guy and use that piece of shit again, I will not hesitate to leave the set. Do you think paying that small amount of money as compensation will scare me?"
