Chapter 61: First Marriage and Second Marriage, They Are Different (Seeking Collections and Recommendations)

~8 min read 1,439 words

"Hahahaha—" Off-camera, Lei Jiayin, Zheng Yitong, and the others immediately doubled over in laughter.

Even the director, the cameramen, and the others couldn't help but burst into laughter; that line was just too dramatic, too funny.

Qiu Chixuan was a bit slower to react, but the joyful atmosphere was infectious, and she started laughing too.

Happiness is something that can be contagious.

"Director, that wasn't a line in the script, was it?" Lei Jiayin asked, leaning against a wall while laughing.

It wasn't strange for actors to improvise lines; as long as it wasn't too excessive, adding a line or two wasn't a problem.

However, this line was just... too sleazy!

It didn't sound like a line from the script.

"No, it is a line from the script," Director Lin explained, the smile still lingering on his face.

"It wasn't in the original script, but this kid had that line during his audition. I thought it was good, so I had him add it in."

But... he hadn't expected the effect to be this good!

"Hahaha, it really is Qi Hui; only he could be this sleazy," Lei Jiayin immediately slapped his thigh in delight.

Director Lin's original plan was to shoot one take according to the existing script and another according to the original, then use whichever one turned out better.

However, it seemed that wouldn't be necessary now.

The drama in this current take was too strong; no matter how you looked at it, this one was the best.

Not long after, Qi Hui and Li Caihua wrapped up for the day.

Li Caihua's face was flushed with a faint red; the feeling that scene just gave her was quite good, making her somewhat reluctant for it to end just like that.

However, seeing the uncontrollable smiles on the faces of the crew members, she was subconsciously startled and scratched her head.

She realized what was going on immediately—it must have been because of that line of Qi Hui's—and her face couldn't help but darken.

Time drifted by like a white horse passing a crack in the wall; in the blink of an eye, three months had passed.

The filming for the production was also nearing its end; counting from when Qi Hui joined the crew, it had been nearly half a year in total.

During this time, the filming for *Snow Leopard* on Zhang Ruoyun's side had long since finished; not only had it finished, it had even begun airing.

Qi Hui was busy filming and avoiding Li Caihua during the day, and busy working out and chatting with Jing Tian at night.

If it hadn't been for a message from Zhang Ruoyun, he wouldn't even have noticed.

"Master brother, it's such a pity you didn't act in *Snow Leopard*," Zhang Ruoyun sent a message, saying with some regret:

"The audience is always asking about Battalion Commander Tang De. If you had played the role, the character you created would definitely have been brilliant!"

"Hehe... objective factors were a limitation," Qi Hui replied: "No need to dwell on it."

"What objective factors? Isn't it just my dad's problem?" Zhang Ruoyun said with some dissatisfaction: "I don't know what he's thinking, but his brain isn't normal anyway."

Qi Hui raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised; it seemed little Zhang hadn't been wasting his time lately and had grown up a bit.

He was no longer that clear-eyed and foolish college student from before... at least, not quite as clear-eyed.

Finishing his chat with Zhang Ruoyun, Qi Hui opened his computer, preparing to watch *Snow Leopard*.

Of course, he was mainly looking at the comments; he had watched *Snow Leopard* many times before he transmigrated, so he was already familiar with the plot.

"It's so good. The only anti-Japanese war drama that can compare to *Snow Leopard* is *Drawing Sword*."

"Xiao Ya is so pretty!"

"Woooo... Xiao Ya, my Xiao Ya!"

"I didn't even notice until someone said it, isn't Xiao Ya just Mu Wanqiu?"

"That blind beauty?"

"Then what about Xie Ruolin?"

"The Army Battalion Commander who saved Zhou Weiguo in the first episode."

"That was him? I thought he was handsome and strong at the time, I didn't expect it to be Xie Ruolin."

"Damn, he really is strong. Xie Ruolin was so fierce; I still have a vivid memory of that fight before he died."

"Damn! Battalion Commander Tang De only appeared once, and then he was gone."

"Such a handsome and powerful person, and he was just a bit player?"

"Hmph... Xie Ruolin? Someone who insulted the Generalissimo, trash!"

"Hahaha, brothers, come look, someone actually thinks that was an insult?"

"Xie Ruolin: I was just stating what he did; how can that be considered an insult?"

"Hahaha... the life of the 'Transportation Captain' is just one giant joke."

"No matter how you put it, the advantage is with me!"

"..."

Looking at these comments, Qi Hui rubbed his chin; the netizens had eyes like torches, and the eyes of the masses were indeed sharp.

The next day, at the Hong family mansion set.

Today they were filming the wedding scenes.

The wedding of Hong Shixian and Lin Pinfu, the wedding of Baolian and Lin Yide, and the wedding of Lin Pinfu and Gao Wenyan.

The wedding of Hong Shixian and Lin Pinfu was naturally the most luxurious, because this was the wedding at the beginning of the story, and when the story first began, Hong Shixian was still a rich second generation.

Naturally, it had to be incomparably grand to show the image of the Hong family as wealthy people.

As for the latter two... those were naturally relatively shabby.

In the dressing room, Lei Jiayin looked at the white wedding suit he was wearing, his expression somewhat strange.

His own wedding was within this month, but he hadn't expected to be wearing this outfit now.

Lei Jiayin was different, but Chi Shuai had a look of excitement and anticipation on his face.

Although it was in the play, the person he was marrying was a South Korean beauty. He had worked so hard for so long, and Qiu Chixuan hadn't been moved, but this time he could finally reap some rewards.

Not only that, he had a kissing scene with Qiu Chixuan later, which was even better!

In the months on set, he hadn't even touched her hand.

Soon, the wedding set was finished; there was no red carpet, only a few balloons and a flower arch overhead.

As petals drifted down and melodious music began to play, the two pairs of newlyweds walked slowly past.

The camera circled, sweeping over the four people—Qiu Chixuan and Lei Jiayin—and over the parents and relatives on both sides.

Then, under the lens, the four finished their kiss.

"Good, cut!" Director Lin shouted: "Props team, pack things up and take them to the backyard."

The props team sighed, lugging the items toward the backyard with a grunt.

The wedding of Hong Shixian and Lin Pinfu had to be more luxurious and extravagant than these two.

So there were many things they had to set up, and it was very troublesome.

In the backyard of the mansion set, a long red carpet was laid on the ground, with flower arches overhead.

The extras changed into different costumes and began the exact same scenes as the previous ones.

They stood on both sides, and many staff members were prepared to scatter flowers and set off confetti cannons.

"3, 2, 1, action!"

Hong Shixian, played by Qi Hui, and Lin Pinfu walked arm in arm, surrounded by countless people, slowly walking down the red carpet. Both of them were smiling like flowers, exceptionally happy, and they couldn't help but bump their heads together, nearly touching foreheads.

At the same time, several cameras swept across the surrounding crowd; everyone was full of smiles, offering their blessings.

Only two people were the exception: Aili and Hong Shixian's mother, Bai Feng.

Off-camera, the corners of Chi Shuai's eyes twitched; it was painful to say, but he felt that Qiu Chixuan's smile was sweeter and more sincere than in the previous scene.

Ridiculous!

Wasn't the previous scene the wedding after she was reborn?

Why was she less happy than in this one?

Lei Jiayin glanced at him twice, roughly knowing what he was thinking, and said slowly: "That was her first marriage, you're acting in a second marriage; it's different."

Chi Shuai felt even worse now!

"Very good, cut!" Director Lin called out: "I announce that the filming for *The Temptation to Go Home* is officially complete, officially finished!"

"Everyone, your work is done!"
