Chapter Twenty-Two: First Kiss
"Ah Wei, have those extras been arranged?" Song Cunshou asked, handing the script to Wang Wei. "They're all in place, they're all old actors who have filmed before." "That's good, once this scene is finished, we'll have to start filming the next one right away. The time is too tight." Song Cunshou said after taking a sip of water. "Ah Wei, has the on-site setup been completed?" "This has already been set up. I went over there to supervise."
Looking at Wang Wei's back, Song Cunshou had a hint of approval in his eyes and secretly praised him: "This kid Ah Wei is not only exceptionally talented, but also diligent and humble."
In these two months, Wang Wei's performance in the crew has been praised by many staff members. Wang Wei is like a versatile talent who can handle everything from photography, props, script, drama, lighting, and even acting as an extra when there are not enough extras. Wang Wei almost does everything and does it well.
Every time after finishing a scene, when others are taking a break, Wang Wei seizes the opportunity to ask about how to handle some tricky situations that arise during filming.
Or help the prop master to set up the scene. Wang Wei always carries a small notebook with him, and whenever he chats with the photographer or the extras, whenever he thinks it's useful, he takes out his notebook and writes and draws. At first, Wang Wei's behavior was seen by the crew as just being curious because it was his first time on set.
However, after more than two months of getting along with the crew, everyone's impression of Wang Wei has changed. Because in these two months, in order to rush for the Spring Festival slot, the crew members have been filming day and night without rest. Wang Wei has successively taken over the work of the photographer, lighting engineer, prop master, and even temporarily played a role as an extra in several scenes. Until now, Wang Wei is still doing the work of the script supervisor who had to leave the crew due to family changes.
After a while, Wang Wei trotted over with a notebook. "Director Song, the scene has been arranged. Shall we start filming?"
After listening to Wang Wei's words, Song Cunshou handed Wang Wei a bottle of water, nodded and shouted to the actors who were resting: "Everyone, let's add some more effort, finish filming the last scene. Before the Laba Festival, we can go home." The actors cheered after hearing Song Cunshou's words, then excitedly rushed to the next shooting location.
Just as Wang Wei was about to turn around, he suddenly saw a woman in a white long dress staring at him with a resentful face. It wasn't Lin Fengjiao, but who else could it be? The resentment was so strong that Wang Wei could feel the anger bursting out of Lin Fengjiao's eyes. As for the reason, Wang Wei knew it all too well.
Since the two followed the crew to the rented filming location in Taipei, Wang Wei started talking to Lin Fengjiao for a couple of sentences every day. However, over the next two months, Wang Wei was busy all day and nowhere to be seen. Every time Lin Fengjiao was filming, Wang Wei would watch and take notes on the side, and when the actors were resting, Wang Wei would run off to chat with the photography prop masters while taking more notes. In short, for these two months, Wang Wei's entire life was spent learning and recording.
Wang Wei is like this because although Wang Wei's brain has recorded many techniques and concepts about how to make movies, these concepts are far from actual operation. Therefore, Wang Wei keeps asking and remembering, and finally even helps the cinematographer and prop master with their work.
It was all Wang Wei's idea to verify the knowledge he remembered in his mind and combine it with practice. After more than a month of listening and doing, no one knows better than Wang Wei now how big the difference is between theory and practice. Now if Wang Wei hears someone say that a person who has just crossed over can direct and make movies, Wang Wei guarantees that he will think for a moment and then spit in the other person's face, "You think making movies is easy? You think you can just do it?"
Wang Wei's daily and nightly listening and writing made Wang Wei also inevitably cold to Lin Fengjiao. At this time, Wang Wei saw Lin Fengjiao's face with a melancholy gaze. Wang Wei couldn't help but stop in his tracks.
The crew saw Wang Wei standing there, staring at Lin Fengjiao, and just as they were about to start teasing, Director Song Cunshou glared at them and shouted, "Hurry up! If someone is not in the right state later on, humph, don't blame me for not being polite."
Everyone knew the director was joking, and who didn't know about Director Song's good temper? But they still quickly dispersed to give them space. Because everyone in the crew knew about Wang Wei and Lin Fengjiao's relationship. Moreover, Wang Wei had a great relationship with almost everyone in the crew, as he had helped many of them before. So they were happy to give Wang Wei and Lin Fengjiao some private space.
Song Cunshou patted Wang Wei's shoulder lightly and said, "Ah Wei, don't worry, there's only one more scene left. I'll go to the front of the venue first and wait for you." After finishing speaking, he took the crew members away.
The rest of the crew were walking towards Wang Wei, raising their eyebrows and making faces, while Hanzi Ge, who usually looked gentle and elegant, had a "men understand" expression on his face and mouthed to Wang Wei: "Ah Wei, Feng Jiao is a great beauty, if you hadn't taken the lead, I would have pursued her relentlessly. You're good, ignoring her for two months, hurry up and coax her." After finishing, he pouted at Wang Wei and left with Song Cunshou's back.
After everyone on the scene left, Wang Wei walked up to Lin Fengjiao and grabbed her hand, wanting to pull her into his own arms. Unexpectedly, Lin Fengjiao struggled hard, making Wang Wei's idea fall through.
Lin Fengjiao struggled to break free from her own arms, but Wang Wei didn't get angry. Instead, he stretched out his hands from behind and hugged Lin Fengjiao's waist again. Lin Fengjiao struggled for a few moments, but because Wang Wei's strength was too great, she stopped struggling after a while. She just silently cried with her back to Wang Wei.
Wang Wei held Lin Fengjiao in his arms, rubbing his face against her delicate cheeks, then stuck out his tongue to lick away the tears on her face, and whispered gently by her ear: "Ah Jiao, are you angry with me? I know that for the past two months, I've been busy with the drama crew and neglected you. You're a girl who's never been away from home for so long, and as your only family member, I shouldn't have ignored your feelings and only thought about doing my own thing."
Lin Fengjiao was held in Wang Wei's arms, and suddenly felt a heartbeat acceleration. After the two families sat together to discuss their marriage, Lin Fengjiao felt that every time she saw Wang Wei, her feelings were different from before, and there was always a strange feeling in her heart. As Wang Wei grew taller and changed his way of addressing himself, Lin Fengjiao's feeling became stronger and stronger.
Especially during this period of time in the crew, Wang Wei's voice slowly changed, and a thin layer of yellow whiskers began to grow on his lips. Moreover, Wang Wei emitted an open, generous, diligent, and calm temperament when interacting with the crew members, just like a mature man. This made Lin Fengjiao deeply feel that Wang Wei was no longer the little kid who followed her around, but a man exuding mature charm. As Wang Wei changed, Lin Fengjiao could deeply feel that her feelings towards him had undergone a thorough change. During this time, Wang Wei was too busy to take care of himself, and for some reason, Lin Fengjiao's heart inexplicably gave rise to a strong sense of resentment.
At this time, Lin Fengjiao was suddenly hugged from behind by Wang Wei, and her heart began to beat faster. Lin Fengjiao wanted to struggle free from Wang Wei's arms, but her legs had gone soft and uncooperative. "What should I do?" Lin Fengjiao felt like her brain was a tangled mess of threads, completely muddled. Just then, Lin Fengjiao suddenly felt Wang Wei's tongue licking away the tears on her face. In an instant, Lin Fengjiao's mind went blank with a loud "huh". "How could he...?" Lin Fengjiao cried out in her heart, but she didn't struggle, and instead a very comfortable feeling rose up inside her.
Wang Wei's hands loosened from Lin Fengjiao's waist, then grasped Lin Fengjiao's shoulders, turning her around. With a deep expression, he looked at Lin Fengjiao and said softly: "Jiao, I know I neglected you, I was wrong, can you forgive me?"
"En" Lin Fengjiao was turned over by Wang Wei, looking at Wang Wei's deeply emotional expression, her mind somehow became disobedient. Whatever Wang Wei said, she would agree with it. The resentment that had accumulated for many days was swept away.
Listening to Lin Fengjiao's response, Wang Wei was delighted. Looking at Lin Fengjiao's face flushed with redness, Wang Wei's heart skipped a beat. He held Lin Fengjiao's face and kissed her deeply.
At this time, Lin Fengjiao was like a puppet, letting Wang Wei's tongue open her teeth and stir in her mouth. "Is this what kissing is? It really feels comfortable." This was the only thought in Lin Fengjiao's mind at this time.
