Chapter 554 The Female Lead

Chen Mo could not fail to detect the tone in Fang Fang's voice.

He quickly said, "I'll come visit the set these two days."

Upon hearing this, Fang Fang, who had been feeling a bit down, immediately became happy, "Really?!"

"When have I ever lied to you?" Chen Mo replied.

"Okay, then I'll send you the location. We'll be filming here for the next few days."

"Mhm."

After a brief chat, they hung up the phone.

Silence fell in the car.

Lin Dehong, sitting in the passenger seat, looked somewhat dejected.

"Another confidante?" Lin Dehong broke the silence, asking first.

Chen Mo chuckled dryly and nodded.

"Sigh!" Lin Dehong sighed, his expression very complex.

"If I weren't weaker than you, I'd really want to give you a good beating!"

Chen Mo wisely kept quiet.

"Sigh!"

Lin Dehong sighed again and waved his hand, "Forget it, I'm too lazy to meddle in the affairs of you young people. However, if I ever find out you've treated Wan'er badly, even in death, I'll take a piece of you with me!"

Chen Mo quickly responded, "Uncle, don't worry."

Before Chen Mo could finish speaking, Lin Dehong replied, "I don't trust you! This requires action to prove, not just your sweet talk!"

"Yes, yes, Uncle is right." Chen Mo quickly agreed.

"Alright, stop the car here," Lin Dehong pointed at the intersection ahead.

Chen Mo looked confused, "Aren't you going to the Mo family to see Wan'er?"

Lin Dehong shook his head, "No, I'm not. She's safe there, and I have some other matters to attend to."

Hearing this, Chen Mo nodded, "Okay, then I'll send someone to ensure your safety."

Lin Dehong didn't refuse. The recent events had left him quite shaken.

After getting out of the car, Chen Mo watched Lin Dehong leave and then drove back to the villa.

Meanwhile, at the Jinling Historical Film and Television City.

Fang Fang hung up the phone and got out of the RV.

Dressed in ancient costume, Fang Fang looked fresh and refined, exuding great beauty. Checking the time, she hurried towards the film crew.

This was Fang Fang's first scene, and she was quite nervous. She had been memorizing the script for days, afraid of forgetting her lines.

Arriving at the set, Fang Fang waited for the filming to begin.

As the female lead, according to the plot, she was supposed to meet the male lead by chance at night.

However, at this moment, a woman suddenly stormed onto the set.

"Where's Fang Fang? Tell her to come out!"

The film crew, who were about to start shooting, immediately halted. All eyes turned to the figure who had just barged in.

The woman was beautiful and a second-tier celebrity with many fans.

"Yifei, what are you doing? You don't have any scenes today, do you?" the director asked, frowning slightly as he walked out.

Qu Yifei, holding the script, approached the director. "Director, I'm clearly the female lead. Why was the role changed to that Fang Fang without notice?"

"Don't forget who funded this production!"

The director's expression changed.

However, due to the investor, the director could only politely say, "Yifei, it's like this, we need to give newcomers a chance. Moreover, the role of the second female lead is no less important than the female lead. You've seen the script; it was all modified specifically for you."

Qu Yifei said coldly, "If that's the case, let Fang Fang play the second female lead, and I'll play the female lead. Otherwise, you won't start shooting today! If I hadn't looked at the script today and realized something was wrong, I wouldn't have known you'd given my female lead position to someone else!"

Upon hearing this, everyone exchanged glances.

The script had been distributed quite some time ago. For the person playing the second female lead to only look at it today!

Could she really remember so many lines?

"Sister Yifei," at this moment, Fang Fang walked out with an apologetic expression.

She truly didn't know that her female lead role had snatched someone else's position.

"You're Fang Fang?" Qu Yifei asked coldly upon seeing her.

"Yes, Sister Yifei. I really didn't know the female lead role was always yours," Fang Fang quickly explained.

"Stop pretending to be pitiful here. Let me tell you, if you don't give up this female lead role to me today, I won't film this, and neither will you!" Qu Yifei shouted angrily.

Fang Fang appeared a little nervous. This was the first time she had encountered such a situation.

The director beside them looked extremely troubled.

This was the female lead designated by the investor, and as the director, he dared not offend her.

Fang Fang, being magnanimous, quickly said, "Director, how about I give the female lead position to Sister Yifei? I'm a newcomer, and it's already great to have this opportunity."

The director looked astonished.

After all, the female lead position was always fiercely contested. He had never seen anyone willingly give it up.

Upon hearing this, Yifei revealed a hint of disdain, "Stop acting like a good person. Your little tricks are too immature. This female lead role was originally mine. My godfather exchanged it for a hundred million investment. This is called returning what belongs to its owner!"

"Director, what are you waiting for? Tell the makeup artist to get ready, I need to get my makeup done!"

Seeing Fang Fang voluntarily give up the female lead role, the director could only hastily agree and instructed the makeup artist to help Qu Yifei with her makeup.

Witnessing this, Fang Fang's assistant rushed over, intending to intervene.

This was something Sister Bing had personally instructed. How could it be changed because of a second-tier actress?

However, Fang Fang stopped her.

Fang Fang did not want to cause trouble for Luo Bing and Chen Mo because of her own affairs.

An hour later, the film crew resumed shooting.

Qu Yifei glanced at her assistant.

The assistant, holding the script, stood a short distance away and gave her an "OK" gesture.

"Action!"

As the clapboard sounded, the male lead slowly walked across a pedestrian bridge and collided head-on with the female lead.

"Pain, six words!"

Suddenly, the assistant nearby shouted.

Everyone on set was stunned.

Qu Yifei put on an expression of pain and said, "One, two, three, four, five, six!"

A gasp!

The entire set erupted in shock.

Even the male lead was frozen on the spot.

"Anger, seven words!" the assistant continued to call out.

Qu Yifei, with an angry expression, pointed at the male lead, "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven!"

Fang Fang, standing nearby, also widened her beautiful eyes in astonishment.

"Hey, why are you just standing there?! Can you act? Speak!" Qu Yifei snapped at the male lead, who remained silent.

"No, it's not that, you're just saying numbers, how am I supposed to respond!" the male lead said with frustration.

"You say your lines, don't mind what I say. It'll all be dubbed later anyway, as long as the word count is met!"

Then Qu Yifei looked at the director, "Director, I'm right, aren't I!"

The director was also having a headache. This was the financier, and he couldn't afford to offend her.
