“So you’re not Xu Mengchen, but Xiang Jingchen. I was wrong about you.” The female lead played by Shen Bao’er looked at the male lead, who was being played by Song Qianming, with teary eyes. The truth of the matter had hit her so hard that she spat out a mouthful of blood.

However, the male protagonist was unmoved, as if the woman in front of him was not the lover who had followed him to the ends of the earth.

“Shuang’er, I advise you to hand over the jade seal, and perhaps I can spare your life.”

“Ha, spare my life? Haven’t you killed enough people? You still care about my life?”

Song Qianming squinted his eyes, and his determined face looked even colder. “Since you don’t want to listen, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”

“Xu Mengchen, do you even have a heart?” the female lead roared.

“Let’s go, Shuang’er. He won’t be soft-hearted to us. If we don’t leave now, it’ll be too late.” The supporting male character forcefully dragged her away.

Song Qianming had already drawn his bow, and an arrow shot out at a rapid speed.

“Nice!” Director He couldn’t help but exclaim.

“Cut! Not bad, everyone’s performance was good. I’ll treat everyone to more food tonight.”

“Director, you’re finally not stingy anymore?” The production crew was instantly in an uproar.

“Oh my, are we finally getting chicken legs tonight?”

“It’s all thanks to teacher Song. That arrow just now simply shot right into my heart.”

“Speaking of which, teacher Song, why are your archery movements so accurate? Did you practice it before?”

Everyone chattered and surrounded him in the middle. Some touched up his makeup and some took water. Because there was still a scene to shoot, the earlier they finished shooting, the earlier they could rest.

“I have come into contact with it a little in the past.” Song Qianming replied humbly.

Shen Bao’er laughed at the side. “I don’t think that you’ve only come into contact with a little. I’ve worked with quite a number of male actors, but none of them had such graceful movements. And it’s not just graceful. That arrow was half-buried in the ground. It’s a good thing that it wasn’t aimed at me. Otherwise, I would’ve been scared to death.”

“Not only was he good at archery, but the way he rode the horse was also very cool. Brother Song, I can already predict how people will ridicule me after this drama is broadcast. You’ve clearly taught me step by step, so why can’t I learn it?” the second male lead said with a bitter face.

“This is a matter of temperament,” the second female lead mocked, “Otherwise, why didn’t Director He make you the male lead? ”

“You are only a supporting actress too?” The supporting male character retorted.

“You… Hmph! Brother Song, you should teach him a lesson.” She actually turned around and started acting coquettishly with Song Qianming.

Song Qianming was speechless.

He felt rather awkward. Even though he was trying his best to adapt to this world, most of his beliefs were still stuck in his previous life. The women there were almost all very reserved. Who would act like a spoiled child to a man they were not familiar with? He really couldn’t handle this Li Jinyun.

Fortunately, Shen Bao’er stepped in. “Don’t look for Xiao Song for everything. Just be yourself. One day, you’ll be able to act as the female lead. Or, you can also invest like I did.”

The atmosphere suddenly froze, and many people couldn’t help but want to laugh.

They couldn’t be blamed for being like this. It was just that Li Jinyun, who played the second female lead, was a little odd. Although her acting skills and looks were not bad, perhaps it was because of this that she was usually very pretentious. She also liked to argue with the second male lead about everything and get close to Song Qianming.

As for why she didn’t like to get close to Shen Bao’er, it was because Shen Bao’er’s family had invested in this drama and she couldn’t afford to offend them. Moreover, Shen Bao’er didn’t bother to entertain her.

“Alright, everyone get ready.” It was still Director He who broke this stiff situation, and everyone returned to their orderly work.

Because Director He insisted on filming at the authentic scenes, it took more than half a year to complete the filming even though it was a web drama with a small investment. However, although the process was tough, the returns were generous. One could tell just by looking at Director He’s confident smile.

“It’s been hard on everyone during this period of time. Thank you for your cooperation all this time.”

“You’re welcome, Director He.”

“That’s right. It’s worth it for the drama to have a good effect when its broadcasted.”

“I promise everyone that I won’t let you down,” Director He laughed.

When he said that, everyone was very happy, because once this drama became popular after its broadcast, it would not only benefit the director and several main actors. Behind-the-scenes staff like them would also be able to write a strong note on their resumes. In the future, no matter which crew they went to, they would have confidence.

“Xiao Song, let’s work together if there’s a chance in the future.” In the end, the director picked up his glass and clinked it with Song Qianming’s. As a director who had been in this industry for so many years, he was sure that Song Qianming would be famous in the future. He had really picked up a big bargain this time. After all, no matter how popular Song Qianming was in the future, he would always be the first director to invite him to act as the male lead.

“Of course.” Song Qianming didn’t hesitate and finished the wine in his glass in one go.

Director He was grateful to him, but how could he not be grateful to Director He? After all, only Director He would dare to invite someone like him, who had no acting experience at all and even had a bad reputation, to act as the male lead.

“Xiao Song, you haven’t signed a contract with any management company, right? Listen to me, don’t sign it for the time being. Even if you want to sign it, you have to wait until after our drama is broadcasted.” Director He said earnestly, “I have a feeling that our drama will definitely be a hit.”

“Many thanks for Director He’s teachings.”

At this moment, Shen Bao’er also came over to give him a toast. “Xiao Song, I also think highly of you. If no one wants to invest in you in the future, you can come to me. I’ll ask my uncle to support you.”

“Thank you, Sister Bao’er.” Song Qianming downed another glass.

Then he got up and gave a toast to everyone. In the past few months, everyone had been very kind to him and had taught him a lot of things. He thought to himself that there would probably be very few such harmonious film crews in the future. Although he had never been in any other film crew, he could feel that this film crew was special.

Even Li Jinyun, who was the most pretentious, didn’t have any other major flaws. She was very professional in the shooting process.

After a few rounds, everyone was drunk. Shen Bao’er even patted Song Qianming’s shoulder regretfully and said, “If only you didn’t have a daughter, I would have wooed you. It’s not that I don’t like Youhuan, but I don’t want to be a stepmother.”

“Sister Bao’er, you’re drunk.” Song Qianming helped her sit down.

“You have to remember that not everyone in the circle is like us. You have to be careful.”

“I will. Thank you, Sister Bao’er.”

“Wuwuwu… If only I was a little more scumbag, then I could even be your sugar mommy. But I can’t bear to see people like you being humiliated, and I can’t bear to see Youhuan be sad when she finds out. I’m so rich, why am I a good person?”

Shen Bao’er’s assistant looked at Song Qianming awkwardly. Song Qianming nodded at her and left without saying anything else. This made the assistant heave a sigh of relief. Her artiste would never learn to be cautious like those in the industry. How could she say such things so casually? What if there were outsiders present just now and this spread?

Furthermore, it was a good thing that the other party was Song Qianming. From their interactions over the past few months, his character was trustworthy and he would not spread rumors.
