Chapter 79: 79: Blocking the Door (5)

The only pity was that the restroom in the room she was staying in faced the living room, where a bunch of people were gathered, so Bo Yan could only hide inside, unable to come out.

Fortunately, the door was closed, and no one went to the restroom. He hid in the bathroom the entire time, and as long as nobody looked for him, he would definitely remain undiscovered.

Back on this end, the new script needed revisions, and several of the creative team were discussing it.

Shang Feifei’s intention was to increase the conflict, which might involve swearing, shoving, and fighting scenes. Shang Feifei was considering her interests, after all, her role couldn’t outshine Xia Siyu in beauty and allure, and in terms of complex character construction, she also fell short of Xia Siyu.

The most frightening part was that her once-praised acting skills took a hit when she visited the set by chance. Even though it was just unedited footage seen from behind the monitor, she was still shocked.

Xia Siyu’s screen presence was too strong. Despite not being formally trained at a film academy and having an unorthodox approach to acting, a lift of her eyes, a widening gaze, a turn of her head, she could convey those subtle emotions.

It was indeed puzzling at times—perhaps the director had a good grasp, or maybe her intuitive understanding was just that acute. In any case, under the director’s lens, it seemed like not a minute of her performance was wasted. The emotions might not be entirely on point, but her raw and tense expressions fitted the character’s rough personality even better. She was getting anxious.

The issue now was that although she had gotten the second lead role as she wished, and her part was a main character’s, the female lead role itself was a bit flat, and with Xia Siyu outshining her, would she not be in a dire situation if she got overshadowed?

Therefore, she kept requesting script changes. Minor adjustments within the framework were possible. After convincing Wang Ju, they came over with the script. After all, Xia Siyu was rather naive—during the last script reading, she had no opinions and let them manipulate her at will.

This time as well, when she proposed changes to the script to intensify the conflict, to make her character more vulnerable and Xia Siyu’s stronger, Xia Siyu did not object at all.

She just looked at Wang Ju, “Director, screenwriter, whatever changes you say, go ahead. As long as this role is logically consistent and not out of place in the plot.”

Wang Ju nodded, and the screenwriter was surprised at how agreeable she was. They had thought she would make many demands and be afraid to play a “villainous” role. Both of them nodded their heads.

But Xia Siyu had one more suggestion, “l have a small request. If the supporting female character finds out about the male lead’s infidelity, apart from confronting the female lead, I also hope to add a scene where she deals with the male lead, preferably fighting him, and I should be the only one hitting him. Think about it, the character of the boss’s wife is so fiery. She definitely won’t only confront women. If a dog of a man makes a mistake, she would beat him even harder.’

At this point, the screenwriter and Wang Ju exchanged glances. Xia Siyu’s suggestion actually made quite a bit of sense.

The screenwriter added, “I’ll go back and discuss it, and we also need to inform Teacher Bo.’

“We’re about to shoot this scene, let’s just call him and let him know,” Wang Ju said and immediately took out his cellphone. Before Xia Siyu could react, he had already dialed the number.

She was extremely nervous, terrified that Bo Yan’s cellphone ringtone would echo from the restroom! Wouldn’t that just tell everyone that Bo Yan was previously in her room?
