Chapter 556: Chapter 555 Missing Him (1)
“`
If it were anyone else, a couple of curses would suffice, but Qin Baizhou was different. They were short on time, and moreover, Qin Baizhou simply could not pose. This delay could mean that even grinding out a day’s effort might not cut it. Wasn’t this asking for trouble?
The advertising director was livid, nearly at the point of hitting him. If they missed today, they’d have to schedule another separate time, and who knows how long that might drag on.
But if the footage wasn’t captured, it wasn’t captured. What could they do? They could only continue.
Qin Baizhou, however, was good-natured: “Let’s just shoot.”
Since he said it was okay, Xia Siyu naturally had no objections either. The two of them struck their poses and began filming again.
This time, just like the previous shot, Qin Baizhou naturally appeared joyful as soon as he was near her. His eyes, unwavering, were fixed on her, conveying a very intimate feeling. There was no need for modeling poses or pretense, he was just naturally close and naturally joyful.
Sure enough, they quickly finished this shot as well. They struck while the iron was hot and also completed the shot where Xia Siyu hands Qin Baizhou the milk. Anyway, as long as he faced her, Qin Baizhou immediately excelled.
After they finished these two joint shots, it was time to take solo pictures. The advertising director even jokingly said, “It seems Mr. Qin has gotten used to how shooting works. Let’s aim to pass this quickly too.”
But when they started on the solo shots, Qin Baizhou froze again.
What were they to do? As the variety show was about to begin filming, Qin Baizhou tried various poses under the photographer’s direction. But whether it was too stiff or too contorted, none of the poses looked good.
The director was helpless, and Xia Siyu had finished her shooting tasks early and was sitting off to the side, eating her dinner—a vegetable salad.
As the final minutes ticked by, the photographer was left with no option but to say, “Mr. Qin, if it’s not working, we’ll have to ask you to come back in a few days.”
He wasn’t like Xia Siyu. Although busy, he certainly wouldn’t handle his time like Xia Siyu did—her time was money, and every minute and second had to be calculated in terms of cash.
Qin Baizhou, with a good-natured smile, apologized: “Sorry, it’s my fault for holding everyone back.”
As they prepared to wrap up, Xia Siyu got up: “Is it almost over?”
She had been eating a lot of meat and fish recently, and when she returned, Qin Baizhou had called her “sturdy,” which really just meant she had gotten “robust.” For a female star, unless it was muscle sculpted beautifully through exercise, “sturdiness” was even more terrifying than “fat” because it was harder to lose.
In the evenings, she could only eat greens, and it was the kind of greens that couldn’t accommodate any salad dressing. Xia Siyu ate a whole bowl of it, especially devouring the chopped chicken pieces without leaving a single one, almost to the point of licking the bowl clean.
Wei Jingjing nodded: “Yes, Brother Qin is about to take his last shot.”
Xia Siyu nodded, elegantly wiping her mouth with a napkin as if she hadn’t just been the one nearly licking the plate. She stood up and walked to the back of the monitor to watch them shoot.
Over there, Qin Baizhou was being filmed. The moment his gaze landed on her, his expression immediately relaxed.
The photographer was startled and quickly snapped ‘click-click-click’ several times while asking Qin Baizhou to switch poses. He moved slightly, and although he didn’t pose exactly as the photographer had instructed, all his movements were natural.
Luckily, Xia Siyu was standing right behind the photographer, and he kept his eyes on her. His gaze followed her, and the photographer didn’t seem overly surprised. On the contrary, his eyes shone brightly. Even with the lighting not perfectly in place, his expressions naturally exuded joy.
The commercial was completed, a close call averted. By the time the commercial shooting was done and they were ready to record the variety show, it was already nine in the evening.
