This time it was a normal take, and Li Caihua didn't pull any sneak attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Director Lin decided to compare these two takes first before deciding which one to use.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shoot ended quickly, and everyone was packing up their equipment. Qi Hui’s eyes rolled, and he called out to Li Caihua:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Caihua, this is a prop, help me return it to the props team.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, he swung his arm and tossed the room card she had just given him toward Li Caihua.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Caihua was stunned for a moment and instinctively raised her hand to catch it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when she realized it was the room card she had given him, she couldn't help but grit her teeth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tch... spineless man,\" Li Caihua clenched her fists in anger, wanting to hit someone: \"He's not even as good as Hong Shixian in the script!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side, Qi Hui had already walked off to another spot with Lei Da to smoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wanted to chase after him, but after thinking about it, she didn't move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wasn't as shameless as Aili in the script.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph... wait for the next kissing scene, let's see how you run!\" Li Caihua’s eyes rolled as she thought to herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Old Lei, there's a bed scene later, you have to keep an eye on things.\" Qi Hui said while smoking his Zhonghua cigarette.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Caihua’s sneak attack just now had made him a bit uneasy; this woman wouldn't actually be serious, would she?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What if she tried to make it real again?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha... *cough cough*, don't you worry.\" Lei Jiayin laughed heartily. Qi Hui was truly in a sorry state, even more so than when he got beaten up last time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But seeing the look in Qi Hui’s eyes, he quickly put away his smile: \"Don't worry, I'm here. Can that woman really turn the world upside down?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He patted his chest with a loud thud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Hui stubbed out his cigarette, took out some chewing gum to start chewing, and handed some to Lei Jiayin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Quit smoking?\" Lei Jiayin asked with interest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There's a kissing scene later.\" Qi Hui said irritably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next scene had not only a bed scene but also a kissing scene; it was extremely troublesome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Actually, the previous scene had one too; that scene just now was the setup for the fight scene between Qi Hui and Lei Jiayin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, Hong Shixian and Aili were supposed to sneak a few kisses behind the office screen, but Director Lin felt that shot didn't need to be filmed yet, so he didn't ask for it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He would wait until Qi Hui and Li Caihua were more familiar with each other after a few more scenes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next scene wasn't a real kissing scene either; according to Director Lin’s plan, there would be forced perspective and blurring, so they didn't necessarily have to actually kiss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bed scene was the same; both of them would be wearing bathrobes, showing nothing, just hugging and talking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were no restricted scenes at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But since Li Caihua had pulled a sneak attack earlier, Qi Hui felt she might not let him off so easily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tch...\" Hearing this, Lei Jiayin also felt a toothache: \"Haven't you ever rejected her?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I did.\" Qi Hui said irritably: \"The very direct, very heartless kind.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Jiayin couldn't help but remark: \"Then she really is like Aili...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the show, Aili was exactly like that, pestering Hong Shixian endlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hong Shixian had no subjective intention to cheat, but he was seduced by Aili and couldn't control himself; the final outcome was a broken marriage and a household in shambles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, Director Lin called out; Qi Hui’s scenes needed to continue filming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next part of the story was Hong Shixian going on a trip with his wife Lin Pinru, and Aili following them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn't go in, but deliberately seduced Hong Shixian; to warn her, Hong Shixian went to find Aili alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who know, know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Hui finished his gum and went over immediately; today’s filming schedule was not light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Lei Jiayin followed along, and they soon arrived at the hotel room set.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this scene, Hong Shixian’s emotions toward Aili were actually anger, because the scene before this one was Hong Shixian catching Aili hugging and cuddling with Lin Yide, whom he played.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s right, it was the scene Lei Jiayin had filmed with Li Caihua earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Hong Shixian was very annoyed; because of this, he also wanted to settle down, stop bothering with Aili, and have a real child with his wife.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But unfortunately, once Hong Shixian entered Aili’s room, could he really get out?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Do you know how I felt when I saw you with him?\" Hong Shixian sat on the hotel sofa and said with an impatient face: \"I’m telling you, I’m very annoyed!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So... are you jealous?\" Aili teased the collar of Hong Shixian’s shirt with her fingers, looking at his strong, firm chest muscles and smiling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Jealous? Heh, I don't have the energy for that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then let me ask you, do you love me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No!\" Hong Shixian said decisively, without hesitation: \"You don't even love me, why should I love you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like a child acting out of spite, Hong Shixian said indignantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hong Shixian, stop pretending.\" Aili smiled triumphantly: \"I know the more you act like this, the more you love me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hong Shixian sneered, looking disdainful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Aili finished speaking, she lunged forward and lowered her head to kiss him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cameraman moved, pulling the shot back while adjusting the focus to blur the two people embracing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point, the shot was finished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Li Caihua, holding Qi Hui, had no intention of letting go immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Jiayin’s mouth twitched, and he walked over quickly, only to find that Li Caihua was doing it for real—her tongue had even slipped in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Cough cough!\" Lei Jiayin gave a loud, forceful cough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Caihua paused, but still showed no signs of letting go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Hui didn't stand on ceremony with her; he reached out, braced her chin, pushed hard, and then pressed against her neck to push her away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Caihua glared at Lei Jiayin, looking a bit angry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Hui stood up decisively and left with Lei Jiayin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind the monitor, Director Lin watched this scene, his eyebrows twitching slightly—they had gone for real just now... were these two already that close?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It looked like the shooting schedule could be accelerated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the hallway, the two walked side by side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Hui couldn't help but touch his lips; there was still a faint trace of lipstick left on them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside him, Lei Jiayin had a teasing expression and chuckled: \"Old Qi, how did it feel?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moist...
