"Ke'er, help me prepare a bottle of trauma medicine. Seeing Sister Wanning fall so badly, I have to go and give it to her."
"Sister Mengmeng, you're so kind. She totally deserved to fall," Yan Ke'er whispered in Yuan Meng's ear.
Yuan Meng smiled gently and shook her head at Yan Ke'er.
How could I really care about Ye Wanning? Of course, I'm going to see her make a fool of herself under the pretext of sending medicine, Yuan Meng thought to herself.
In Ye Wanning's private dressing room after the scene ended
Ye Wanning sat motionless in front of the mirror, her face full of anger. The assistants and staff around didn't dare to say a word.
Knock, knock, knock... There came a knock on the door.
"Sister Wanning, are you okay? I've come to bring you trauma medicine," Yuan Meng deliberately shouted loudly into the room, for fear that Ye Wanning wouldn't hear it was her.
"What is Yuan Meng doing here?" Ye Wanning had planned to ignore Yuan Meng and not let her in. However, she didn't expect Shen Yun to pass by the door and just run into Yuan Meng who came to bring the trauma medicine.
Ye Wanning didn't want Shen Yun to know about her embarrassing incident, so she quickly opened the door.
"Thank you, Mengmeng, for bringing the medicine... Oh, why is Actor Shen here too?" Yuan Meng was overjoyed seeing Ye Wanning trying to force a smile while being extremely angry.
"Oh, Sister Wanning, Actor Shen just passed by. He just asked casually when he saw me waiting for you to open the door. Here's the trauma medicine, Sister Wanning. I won't come in and disturb you. You should have a good rest and remember to apply the medicine." Yuan Meng came here just to irritate Ye Wanning. Now that she had seen Ye Wanning, there was no need for her to go in. She said goodbye to Ye Wanning and Shen Yun and then left. After Yuan Meng left, Shen Yun also politely nodded to Ye Wanning and turned away.
Looking at Ye Wanning again, she clutched the trauma medicine and went back into the dressing room. She was breathing rapidly and extremely angry. After standing still for a while, she angrily threw the trauma medicine at the mirror. Still not satisfied, she kicked a chair over. The assistant beside her didn't dare to move, for fear that everything in the dressing room would be smashed to pieces.
The loud noises Ye Wanning made while smashing things were just heard by Yan Ke'er who was on her way to the bathroom.
"Sister Mengmeng, it's so scary! I just passed by Ye Wanning's dressing room and heard a series of noises of smashing things. That woman won't smash the dressing room out of anger, will she? Sister Mengmeng, we have to be careful. This woman goes crazy and doesn't care about anything!"
"A man does not attack me, I do not attack him; a man attacks me, I will not be bullied! Don't worry, Ke'er. We will never be bullied!" At that moment, Yan Ke'er suddenly felt that the Yuan Meng in front of her seemed like a different person, but she didn't think much about it. After all, although Sister Mengmeng was naive and innocent, she had always been a kind and upright person.
The night passed in peace.
Early the next morning, the movie crew was filming.
Yuan Meng had a scene today where she was bullied and needed to be hung on a wire for safety. After the last incident of slapping, Ye Wanning had learned her lesson. It was really unsafe to do it herself, and if she failed, there was a risk of being seen as doing it on purpose. So she prepared to "kill with a borrowed knife".
"Oh, Actress Ye, you don't have any scenes this morning. Why don't you take a good rest?" Ye Wanning didn't have any scenes, but she still came to the crew. She quietly walked towards the staff in charge of the wire when no one was paying attention.
"Hey, the teachers have worked hard too. I've bought some snacks to reward you all." Ye Wanning bought a lot of milk tea and snacks and personally distributed them to the prop teachers one by one. When it came to the person in charge of the wire, Ye Wanning specifically picked a snack with a very fancy packaging bag. She put a bank card between the snack packaging bag and her hand and handed it to the person in charge of the wire.
"There's 200,000 yuan in this card. The password is six ones. For Yuan Meng's wire scene today, just do a little something to it. You should be familiar with this, right?"
Coincidentally, the wire teacher for this scene was someone Ye Wanning was familiar with and had helped her do many shady things.
"I'll try it after I'm done. Thank you for the snack, Actress Ye." The wire teacher pretended that Ye Wanning was just introducing the snack to him and secretly nodded at Ye Wanning. The two understood each other tacitly and smiled at each other.
Soon it was time for Yuan Meng's wire scene. Ye Wanning sat aside, ready to watch the show under the pretext of learning.
Yuan Meng was slowly lifted into the air before the filming started. She would slowly descend when the filming started, and then the scene would be over.
"Xia Weiwei, Scene 3, Take 1, start." With the director's order, Yuan Meng posed and slowly descended from the air. Sure enough, an accident happened when she was halfway down.
With a snap, the wire suddenly broke, and Yuan Meng fell towards the ground.
In the blink of an eye, Yuan Meng immediately hugged her head and curled herself into a ball. She regained some control using inertia, but still quickly fell to the ground.
The accident happened suddenly. By the time everyone came to their senses, Yuan Meng had already fallen.
"Is Yuan Meng okay?" Led by the director and Yan Ke'er, a group of staff quickly surrounded her. Many people outside also started taking pictures. Falling from a wire was no small matter, and there were quite a few actors who had broken bones because of it.
"I'm okay, Director. The height where the wire broke wasn't very high. I just have a few scratches." Yuan Meng didn't say that it was actually because of her quick reaction and using inertia to protect herself that she only had a few scratches. After all, she thought this matter was very strange. Other people had no problems with the wire, but as soon as she got on, the wire broke. It was very suspicious.
"Falling down is no small matter. You should still go to the hospital and get checked! Some problems may not be felt now, but you may feel pain later." The director had always liked Yuan Meng and was very concerned about her at this time.
"Director, I'm really okay! Moreover, if I go now, how much will the shooting progress be delayed? This is the last scene in the morning anyway. After this scene, I don't have any scenes in the afternoon. It's not too late for me to go to the hospital then." The director couldn't persuade Yuan Meng, so he had to continue filming, but still repeatedly told Yuan Meng to go to the hospital in the afternoon.
The filming was still going on here, but someone on the set had already filmed the whole incident and posted it on the Internet.
"Wow, who is this little sister? She's so dedicated. Great job!"
"Are you okay, guy above? This is Yuan Meng who has been on the hot search recently. I always thought she was a delicate and cute girl, but unexpectedly, this little sister is so strong and dedicated. I'm a fan now!"
"Has our Mengmeng gone to the hospital? She must take more care. Falling from a wire is so scary. What's wrong with the crew!"
Ye Wanning's original intention was to make Yuan Meng fall and maybe even get more seriously injured, so as to delay her scenes or even replace her. However, unexpectedly, things backfired. Not only did it not delay Yuan Meng at all, but it also helped her gain a wave of fans. It was really a case of losing both the lady and the army.
