But we can still look forward to it.
What if something unexpected really happens?
"Oh... okay, okay!" The director was helpless too. Qu Leqi was unwilling to shoot, and he couldnât force her.
Qu Leqi laughed with her assistant, "Do you think something unexpected will happen during filming today, trapping her inside? Wouldnât that be funny?"
"Uh..." The assistant felt it was inappropriate and didnât dare to respond.
No matter how big the grudge, you shouldnât be so malicious.
Besides, after spending time together recently, Heather is actually quite nice. Even the director gives her respect, and she doesnât put on airs, sheâs very easy to get along with.
...
Unable to persuade Qu Leqi, the director turned to discuss with Heather.
The stark contrast was that Qu Leqi refused to film no matter what, while Heather agreed to it very professionally.
She glanced over at Qu Leqi, smiled, and nodded, "Alright, since Iâm already in, I donât mind filming another take."
The director was initially worried that after the last incident, Heather might feel less safe with the crew. To his surprise, she returned unchanged, filming whatever needed to be filmed, without any complaints.
When told about the explosion scene, she showed no fear.
Itâs worth noting that Qu Leqiâs concerns werenât baseless. Though the chances are slim, what if it does happen?
The director chuckled and said, "Wei Wei, are you scared? Is there anything you donât understand? Feel free to ask, Iâll explain everything."
"No need, Iâve remembered all the explosion points. According to our movements, even if the nearby blast points go off, they wonât harm me. The only dangerous ones are the two at the entrance. As long as the Blaster doesnât have a grudge against me and doesnât trigger them just as Jiang Yang and I are rushing out... there shouldnât be any accidents."
She spoke casually, as if it wouldnât matter to her even if it did explode.
But the director thought, how could it not matter? If those two explosion points went off, even if she survived, she would be severely burned.
"Thatâs good, thatâs good. - Jiang Yang, go inside and get a feel for the set with Wei Wei."
Jiang Yang wasnât like Qu Leqi, fearing this and that. Having shot explosion scenes before, he didnât have any psychological shadows about it, so he wasnât worried.
Once inside with Heather, he followed her around the place. Heather showed him the locations of each explosion point, advising him not to wander off and to stand correctly during filming to avoid accidental injuries once things blew up.
"When the time comes, Iâll descend from the third floor on wires; youâll jump from the second. Extras will rush out from both sides; Iâll go left and youâll go right. Master Zhang should have taught you the moves, right?"
Jiang Yangâs face hadnât fully healed, so he often had to shoot from the side. Plus, his character was also injured in this scene, so he didnât require much makeup, it was almost ready to go.
Listening to just bits of what she was saying, his gaze was fixed on Heather.
Suddenly, he asked curiously, "Heather, youâve been in this industry for a long time, do you fear nothing?"
"What?" Heather was seriously explaining the scene to him, and he suddenly digressed, catching her off guard.
"I mean, is there nothing in this world that scares you?"
"Yes, there is."
"Oh? What is it?" He seemed genuinely curious.
"You."
"...Me?"
