The weather was getting gloomier by the minute.
Approaching four or five o'clock, the sky had already been completely covered by dark clouds, and a gust of chilly wind began to blow.
A few ghosts who were originally huddled together among the extras boldly stuck out half of their bodies.
The extras squatting on the ground stared at Colette in the filming location with their eyes filled with a sense of awe.
Colette played Kaliyah and was supposed to hit the female lead.
A hint of gloom flickered in her eyes as she let out a cold laugh.
She used real strength when she slapped the female lead for the first time, without any assistance.
There was a loud snap, and Niki was stunned by the hit.
Quickly, she remembered her lines, and with eyes red from the pain, she got up from the bed.
The director frowned, planning to call a cut, but since Niki continued acting, he had to hold back.
Kaliyah, with a condescending attitude, lectured her about the rules and reprimanded her for her lack of moral principles.
Another slap followed.
In the scene, the female lead was supposed to stare at Kaliyah with unyielding eyes despite being beaten and scold Kaliyah.
The male lead rushed in and rescued the female lead, holding her in his arms.
But now, Niki was furious. How dare this woman treat her with such contempt?
Was she someone who would be suppressed and bullied without fighting back?
Niki did not follow the script and instead struggled to stand up. With all her might, she slapped Kaliyah.
Snap!!!
It was a loud slap.
Kaliyah was caught off guard and took a few steps back, stunned.
Colette, no, the script wasn't supposed to be like this!
Jonathan, who had just entered from the door, looked puzzled.
However, he was quick on his feet and immediately went on stage.
Tears streamed down Kaliyah's face as she immediately reported Niki. The male lead asked her to leave, and Kaliyah left with an unwilling face.
The male lead said coldly, "You think you're impressive now? Dare to hit someone?"
Niki was holding back her tears, but suddenly burst out crying, pointing at the door and crying so hard that she was out of breath, "Get out! Get out of here!"
The male lead's expression darkened, and he frowned as if he wanted to say something, but he still left in a huff.
The director finally saw his chance and shouted, "Cut! Excellent, all three of you have unleashed your emotions!"
"Niki, you did an excellent job with this scene! According to the female lead's character, this is how it should be!"
Niki let out a cold laugh. She had to pretend to be in pain and unable to move when acting just now, so she held back.
Now that the director called cut, could she still hold back?
Niki was thinking about finding a reason to slap Colette back when Colette, in a fake apologetic tone, came over and gave her an excuse, "Ah... Sister Niki, I'm sorry just now! I got too immersed in the scene and lost control..."
Niki took a few steps forward and swung her arm to slap Colette.
With a loud smack, even Susie, who was waiting to see the fight, was shocked.
Colette covered her face, tears welling up, "Niki, why did you hit me... I really didn't mean it just now... Are you angry? I'm sorry, I got too into the role..."
Niki also pretended to be stunned for a moment before regaining her senses.
Then she panicked and said, "Oh... my god, what did I just do? I actually hit you!"
"I'm sorry! I was still immersed in the plot just now! I haven't gotten out of character yet! I saw you as Kaliyah, and I got too into it, *sob...*! I'm sorry, I'm sorry *sobs…*!"
Niki nervously reached out to "touch" Colette's face, "Are you okay? You're not hurt, are you?"
Colette's face was already swollen from the slap, and it hurt even more when Niki pressed on it.
She exclaimed, "Ah, it hurts!"
Niki said, "Ah... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, *sob*…! I was just so worried about you..."
She was at a loss, calling out for assistants, doctors, teacher Murray, and the director.
Jonathan remained silent.
Everyone else remained silent.
It seemed like there was no problem?
Susie thought, "Hmm... Niki sister is such a good actress!"
She looked happily at Mrs. Alana and said, "Grandma Chloe, Niki sister is amazing! I forgot the word; it's called being dedicated or something."
Mrs. Alana said, "Hmm... really professional."
Susie nodded eagerly, "Yeah, yeah, yeah!"
Mrs. Alana felt exhausted.
She had an unreliable Kellen, a Martin who would answer anything, a Michael who would swing a steel bar at any provocation, and now a drama queen Niki... She couldn't believe it.
Would the little ones grow up crooked? Mrs. Alana worried, but then she felt relieved - she wasn't afraid, if Niki grew crooked, she would fix her bare-handed!
On the other end.
Colette suffered a loss and couldn't say anything.
Is it allowed for her to get too immersed in the role but not for Niki?
If questioning whether Niki is too immersed in the role is false, does that mean she was also false just now?
It's really the case of teasing first is cheap. Colette is about to be annoyed to death...
She can only cover her face and sit aside in frustration.
She squinted.
In the scene later where Niki acted, the female lead was supposed to pretend to be a ghost, sprinkle oil and light a fire to pretend to scare away the enemy.
Lighting a fire...
A hint of viciousness flashed in Colette's eyes, fire, accident, disfigurement.
She quietly stood up, pretended to rest aside, and secretly changed into a costume of a supporting actor while no one was paying attention...
Over on the crew's side, everyone was teasing Susie.
The director said, "Now, you're going to see the scene where you tear the Japanese soldiers apart! Uncle will arrange it for you!"
Susie clapped her hands and said, "Director uncle is really amazing! Oh, by the way, how did you invite the ghosts?"
The director thought that the child didn't fully understand why the Japanese were called ghosts, so he said ghosts, thinking she was talking about the supporting actors.
He said, "We paid for it!"
Susie nodded and said, "Oh, I see. So, money can make ghosts grind, right?"
The director said, "You're not wrong. They are all here to work for a living."
Susie said she learned something new, that ghosts also have to work for a living.
If it were Mitch or Clara who came out with her today, she wouldn't have misunderstood it so deeply...
On set, the staff is preparing.
The sky is getting darker, looking like it's almost night.
The next scene is a gloomy prison. The staff is hanging a shackle on the wall and throwing some red paint on one side.
At this time, he suddenly noticed that someone was crouching in the iron cage of the prison, staring straight at him.
The staff was startled and cursed, "Damn it, you're a ghost! What are you doing there?"
The "person" in the iron cage slowly stood up and revealed a sinister smile, "Hehe..."
