Chapter 1331: Can’t You Behave

Even actors trained professionally might not be able to do it in one take.

However, at the very least, even if they can’t deliver a soulful performance, they should manage to capture some spirit.

The supporting actress neither had the soul nor the spirit; she only pretended to act.

On a normal day, Chu Yao could wait.

If it came down to it, she could just hold on; if she wasn’t needed, there would naturally be the Director or screenwriter to instruct her.

Chu Yao handed the keys to the Director’s assistant, asking them to bring the car over.

During this time, she didn’t say a word.

Once the car arrived, she grabbed the supporting actress’s hand and dragged her towards it.

“Sorry about this.”

As soon as her voice fell, Chu Yao stuffed the supporting actress into the passenger seat.

After getting in the car, she didn’t even bother to speed up and floored the gas pedal, taking off.

Everyone present was shocked.

The Director slapped his thigh, “Oh no!

This is the mountain; hurry, get a few more cars to chase after them!”

If the supporting actress got hurt, so be it; at most, they might have to apologize to the investors.

Ideally, they could find a replacement.

But Chu Yao is valuable!

Every strand of her hair is worth something.

Shengchen only has her as an actor.

The boss of Shengchen spends over nine figures every year just on insurance for Chu Yao’s body, not to mention her acting skills are priceless; she can’t afford to be in trouble!

The people who realized the situation quickly went to get their cars, and the props team deployed all their drones.

But as each car went out, the Director waited at the walkie-talkie; not a single person reported catching up with her, or even seeing the car.

The Director was so anxious that his beard stiffened, just as he saw that car—or rather, the car driven by Chu Yao—returning.

The Director quickly got up to see the situation.

After just a few steps, the car drifted right past him, drifting around the corner, and sped off again.

All that could be heard was the ghostly wailing and weeping of the supporting actress, but not a glimpse of Chu Yao’s face.

Before anyone knew it, three laps had already passed.

The Director thought there might be a fourth lap, but as he mentally counted the time it took to complete a lap, Chu Yao didn’t return.

His daze was interrupted by a burst of static from the walkie-talkie, startling him so much he quickly pressed it to his ear.

He heard what was like a bolt from the blue.

“Found them!

At the edge of the cliff!

The…

the car is half over the edge, get rescuers here immediately!”

The Director’s legs went soft.

Fortunately, an assistant supported him.

He felt as if he lost all strength to wave his arms and weakly shouted, “Get the car, damn it!

Take me there!”

By the time the Director and others arrived on the scene, many were weak at the knees with fear.

It really was half the car over the edge.

Not just the front or rear, but sideways, with two wheels hanging over the cliff, the other two on the edge.

The supporting actress cried like a ghost wailing, clutching the seatbelt tightly, legs squeezed together, not daring to move an inch.

The cliff was right outside her window!

“Can you act properly now?” Chu Yao asked.

“Yes, yes, yes!”

“Recite your lines for me.” Tingting said.

“Huh?” The supporting actress was stunned.

Chu Yao glanced at her nonchalantly, “Recite.”

“Yes…”

The supporting actress closed her eyes and recited all the lines she had struggled to memorize all night in one go.

“Very good.”

Chu Yao raised her eyebrows in satisfaction.

No one saw how she did it, nor did they see how the wheels hanging in the air managed to edge back up to the cliff.

Just as the crew’s hearts were pounding from the car’s shuddering, it miraculously came back up.

Chu Yao slammed on the brakes in front of the Director, “Now let’s go back to filming.”
