"Uh, my good brother, please calm down and let me explain!"
Xia Weiliang stepped closer and said earnestly, "If I've caused any misunderstandings before, I'm here..."
Yan Zhi: "She's not giving you a room."
"Heh, those are minor issues, just caused by work errors. There's no need..."
Yan Zhi: "She's making you sleep in the six-person room."
"Heh, a six-person room is fine too. At least it's lively and not lonely..."
Yan Zhi: "She thinks your acting doesn't suit this drama."
"Heh, heh, the public can sometimes misunderstand. Since I chose to be an actor, I have to be able to withstand scrutiny and criticism..."
Yan Zhi: "She actually wants you to pack your bags and leave."
"Heh... well..."
Yan Zhi: "She says you're ugly."
Xia Weiliang: "Nuomi!! Get the weapons!"
"Right away!!"
Some things are too much to bear!
"That's right! Niangniang! Show them your spirit! Fight them! Make them regret it!"
Yan Zhi cheered from the side, almost picking up two bricks to add weight!
"Make who regret it?"
A sudden voice startled the three of them.
Seeing who had arrived, Yan Zhi instantly cowered and stepped back behind Xia Weiliang.
Miss, the center stage is yours.
Xia Weiliang turned her head and saw the acclaimed actor Xiao walking over.
She squinted at him. With his back to the light, his outline was blurred by the glow. He was handsome and elegant, like an immortal descending from the clouds...
Xia Weiliang's body stiffened, realizing how dangerous her thoughts were. She quickly composed herself!
Don't panic, Liangye, you've seen it all!
Mere male beauty isn't enough to sway you!
Xiao Yi approached, glanced at her, then looked at Yan Zhi. The latter quickly and subtly raised his hand, bending his fingers, and tossed an arrow towards Xia Weiliang...
Nuomi's mouth twitched twice, and he looked at him with disdain.
This guy is actually tattling to the parents!
His dark eyes fixed on Xia Weiliang, "Tell me, what's going on?"
"Wh-what's going on? We're just chatting here..."
Xia Weiliang instinctively didn't want to tell the acclaimed actor about her own affairs, especially the unpleasant ones.
She's old enough now, isn't she? If she can't solve her own problems, does she need others to worry about her?
"Is that so?"
The acclaimed actor clearly didn't believe her. His gaze remained fixed, but his fingers beckoned Yan Zhi, "You tell me."
"Ah, it's like this!"
Ignoring Xia Weiliang's warning gaze, Yan Zhi decisively reported everything to his boss – how she was bullied and ostracized, how she had to squeeze into a six-person room with the assistant girls, not even getting a private room.
"Alright, you can stop talking now!"
Xia Weiliang raised her hand to cover her cheeks, feeling utterly humiliated!
Xiao Yi listened patiently with a composed expression.
Xia Weiliang stayed for a moment, then beckoned to little Nuomi, "Come on, let's go eat!"
Nuomi didn't even look at her and quickly turned to the acclaimed actor for help: "Teacher Xiao, our Weiwei jie is really suffering! Please dispense justice!"
"How am I suffering?!"
Xia Weiliang was about to be angered to death by these two.
What's wrong with sleeping in a six-person room?
It's such a small matter, compared to her being able to star in Director Zhou's film, she hadn't even cared about it!!
And besides...
And why should Xiao Yi be the one to dispense justice?
She put on a stern face, rarely losing her temper, and called out in a deep voice, "Nuomi."
Knowing that Wei jie was truly angry this time, Nuomi stuck out his little tongue, lowered his head, and came to her side: "Weiwei jie, I was wrong."
"Aren't you leaving yet!"
"Oh."
Xia Weiliang, who had just taken a step, paused. She looked up at Xiao Yi, "Teacher Xiao, I'm sorry for taking up your time. My matters are my own to resolve, and I don't wish to trouble anyone. Also, I wish Teacher Xiao a smooth filming."
With that, she pulled little Nuomi away.
Watching their retreating figures, Xiao Yi fell into thought.
"Brother Yi! Aren't you... not going to manage this?"
Yan Zhi jumped out anxiously, "Brother Yi, didn't you see it? Niangniang's living conditions are really..."
"Let's go back."
He turned and walked away.
Yan Zhi was shocked, "Brother Yi! You're not going to handle this?!"
Good heavens, had he heard correctly?
Boss, where's your boyfriend power? When you're needed, show it!
Xia Weiliang looked at the young girl opposite her with a stern face.
"Where did I go wrong?"
"I didn't do anything wrong! I just can't stand them bullying you!"
Looking at Nuomi's wronged expression, Xia Weiliang sighed slightly and stroked his little head, "Nuomi, remember this: honor and effort go hand in hand. I haven't put in any effort before, and I entered the entertainment industry relying on my family and my fairy-like unparalleled beauty. People will always criticize..."
Little Nuomi, who had been listening intently, frowned suspiciously.
Is she sure this is self-reflection?
"If you can't prove yourself with strength, you'll only be treated unfairly! Instead of wasting time on pointless disputes, it's better to think about how to be their father."
Little Nuomi: "⊙⊙?"
Xia Weiliang smiled slightly and said persuasively, "As long as the father's position is stable, if the child is disobedient, you just beat them. Little Nuomi, don't you think that's the principle?"
Hiss!
Weiwei jie makes so much sense!
Little Nuomi nodded vigorously and then raised his hand to speak.
Xia Weiliang raised her hand to signal, "This student may speak."
"I want to be an aunt!"
Xia Weiliang showed a benevolent smile, "Granted."
Back in the room to rest, the other five girls were all there. They were chattering, but the moment they saw Xia Weiliang, they fell silent.
Rumor had it in the crew that Xia Weiliang was staying in the six-person room, right in their room!
At first, they didn't believe it, but they never expected...
The little fairy had truly descended!
Seeing Xia Weiliang in person, her beauty was truly stunning! Her skin was excellent, fair and tender. Her appearance was both cool and cute, capable of acting youthful or cool!
Most importantly, her figure was incredibly good, so good that even other women were salivating...
"Hi, hello everyone, I'm Xia Weiliang."
Xia Weiliang greeted them generously, with a friendly smile on her face, showing no resentment for the downgraded treatment.
"Xia Niang... Weiwei jie!"
"Hello, Wei jie."
The girls had also only joined the crew for a short time. Xia Weiliang was practically the first celebrity they had encountered up close in private!
They all stood there awkwardly, at a loss.
Being stared at by five people, Xia Weiliang actually felt quite awkward.
She thought for a moment, cleared her throat, and suggested, "You're all pretty bored, right... How about this, I'll sing you a song!"
The next second, everyone wailed.
"Weiwei jie! It's absolutely unnecessary!"
"Niangniang! Spare us from your singing!"
"Weiwei jie! We are definitely not bored!"
"Wei jie! If you want to occupy the six-person room this way, then you've won!!"
Instantly, the room that had been deathly quiet became lively. Everyone burst into laughter, agreeing that they absolutely couldn't let Xia Weiliang start singing!
The impression they had of female celebrities who flaunted their beauty was that they were difficult to approach. But who would have thought that Xia Weiliang would be so down-to-earth? Coupled with the celebrity filter, she instantly won the girls' favor.
The girl sleeping in the lower bunk by the window blushed and came up to her, "Wei jie, let me switch with you. It's too noisy here, and it will affect your filming tomorrow."
"No, no need!" Xia Weiliang took out earplugs, earmuffs, and headphones from her bag and laid them out on the bed.
"I'm a noise-canceling person!"
Not only can she cancel noise, but she's also tone-deaf.
"But..."
"Oh, there's no 'but'! I have filming tomorrow, and you all have work too! I have rest time, but you are all tense all day. Compared to me, you need to rest well!"
She spoke in a casual tone, with considerate words. The girls were young and rarely heard such caring words while working hard outside, which immediately narrowed the distance between them, and their previous awkwardness disappeared.
After dinner, the six girls were huddled on two beds side-by-side on the lower bunk, screaming at the foreign male models in the video...
"Weiwei jie, let me open your eyes today! Let you understand what a standard stoic straight man is!"
"Wow wow wow!"
"Isn't he sexy???"
"Ahhh! These legs, these chest muscles..."
"Hahaha! Weiwei jie, tell me, isn't he handsome? More handsome than our acclaimed actor?!"
"More handsome than..."
Xia Weiliang suddenly hesitated.
More handsome than Xiao Yi?
She glanced sideways at the male model on the tablet. It seemed, perhaps... it was nothing special.
