Xia Wanruan put down the script and greeted Anrao before going to change into her costume.
After Xia Wanruan and Su Yue-ran changed into their costumes, the director gave the order, and all the crew members got into position. "Okay, get ready. Let's start filming!"
Under the dim yellow light, Xia Wanruan was sewing the torn robe in her hands with the help of the candlelight.
After the fall of the dynasty, the pampered princess had to patch up her younger brother's torn robe with her own hands.
On the bed not far away, her younger siblings were sleeping.
The lights were like fireflies. Xia Wanyuan sat in front of the candlelight and stitched the patch into the pattern of an auspicious cloud. Because of this pattern, a rough linen shirt seemed to glow.
The candlelight swayed quietly and reflected on Xia Wanruan's hair, giving it a gentle glow.
At this moment, footsteps suddenly came from the window. Xia Wanruan looked up cautiously, but a smile appeared in her eyes when she saw who it was.
Xia Wanruan put down the robe in her hands and walked into the courtyard with light footsteps.
"Miss, you're still sewing at this time of night?" Su Yue-ran's character, Cai Ling, walked up to Xia Wanruan with a bamboo basket.
Cai Ling was born in a peasant family, but she was very pretty. Because of this, the bullies in the village took a liking to her and wanted to take her back to their manor.
Xia Wanruan and her younger siblings passed by and pitied her, so they saved her.
Cai Ling was grateful to Xia Wanruan, but the villagers didn't have much to give her, so she could only hunt some tofu and catch a few fish for Xia Wanruan.
"Miss, thank you for saving me today. I'm your subordinate. If you need me in the future, feel free to tell me. I'll definitely help." Cai Ling's eyes were clear and bright with the most primitive innocence.
"You're too polite. I'm older than you, so you can call me Big Sister." Xia Wanruan, who had just experienced the pain of her country being destroyed, was touched by Cai Ling's simplicity.
"Hey!
Sis! "
Cai Ling called Xia Wanruan happily as she passed the basket to Xia Wanruan, saying, "This is for you. I will send it to you tomorrow!"
"Alright." Xia Wanruan took the basket and smiled at Cai Ling.
The moonlight tonight was very beautiful, but it was not as beautiful as the true feelings in the eyes of the two women.
No matter who saw the light in their eyes at this moment, they would think that this was a relationship that transcended a lifetime. No one would have thought that in just a few short years, Cai Ling would become the first knife to stab Xia Wanruan.
"Alright!"
The director had been watching quietly until the end before he praised, "You have a very good grasp of the relationship. You are indeed good friends both in and out of the movie!"
The director had just said it casually, but An Rao felt that it wasn't the case.
Just now, Xia Wanruan and Su Yue-ran were acting, but that sincere relationship made people feel as if they were there, and they could feel the light in their eyes.
Anrao felt even more sour inside her heart. She liked Xia Wanruan so much, and she didn't want to share Xia Wanruan with other women.
Xia Wanruan came back after removing her makeup, and she realized that Anrao was disappointed as she kicked the pebbles by her feet.
"Let's go, I'll treat you to lunch." Xia Wanruan thought that Anrao missed Bo Xiao, so she wanted to bring her out to change her mood.
Anrao pursed her lips and had a look at Su Yue-ran, who was not far away, who was also walking over. "Just the two of us?"
"Yeah."
Xia Wanruan knew that Anrao was afraid of Jun Shiling. "I'll give Jun Shiling a call and ask him not to come. The two of us can just go and eat."
"Okay." Anrao's mood warmed up a little.
Jun Shiling had already gotten off the elevator, and he was thinking about what to bring Xia Wanruan to eat when he received a call from Xia Wanruan.
"Babe, you're too much." After listening to Xia Wanruan's explanation, Jun Shiling stopped in his tracks.
"President Jun, please understand. It's not easy for Anrao to come out."
"Oh, then accompany me for dinner tonight."
Jun Shiling waved his hand at Lin Jing, who was behind him, and turned back to the elevator. Without Xia Wanruan accompanying him, he would just settle his lunch in the office.
"Okay." Xia Wanruan agreed immediately. "I'll wait for you at home tonight, okay?"
"Good girl." Jun Shiling was satisfied. "Wear a scarf when you go out. Don't catch a cold."
"Okay." Xia Wanruan hung up the phone.
