It took the group about two hours to climb halfway up the Yan Mountain.
Yang Ling was fine, but when Li Wan couldn't walk, he would support her.
The boys like Xia Chen didn't change much.
It was only hard for Yang Min, with sweat beads on her forehead and face, and her whole body almost pressing down on the small assistant she was leading. The assistant couldn't control her legs and fell to the ground when she stopped, and Yang Min, who had all her weight on her, also fell to the ground. It was a very embarrassing scene.
Yang Ling could be sure that if Bai Yinfeng saw Yang Min like this, he would definitely lose interest in her.
"What are you doing? My clothes are all dirty. Do you believe me when I say I'll fire you when we get back?" Yang Min sat on the ground in a mess, screaming sharply. There was no trace of the demeanor of a wealthy young lady left in her.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm just too tired and didn't stand properly. I'm sorry, I'm sorry." The small assistant was so scared that her face turned pale. She didn't care that her legs were trembling and quickly got up from the ground, trying to reach out and help Yang Min.
"Get lost! I know you did it on purpose!" Yang Min slapped away the small assistant's hand and then slapped her directly in the face with her other hand.
There was a loud "smack!" and the whole crew fell silent.
"Yang Min, you're crazy. How could you just hit someone like that?" Li Wan pulled the dazed assistant behind her and glared at Yang Min.
"She's my person. I can hit her if I want to. It's none of your business," Yang Min rolled her eyes and didn't take Li Wan seriously at all.
With a fierce look, she turned her gaze to the assistant hiding behind Li Wan: "You useless thing, what are you still doing there? Come over here and help me up, or I'll fire you!"
Everyone was stunned. They had seen arrogance before, but never to this extent! While there were many celebrities in the industry with bad tempers who might vent their frustrations on their assistants in private, this was different. Even Lin Jiaojiao had only acted this way when no one was around. After all, with so many people around, if something like this were caught on video and posted online, it would ruin her image.
But now, Yang Min was doing this in front of everyone, including the director. It was so thrilling! Even Yang Ling hadn't expected Yang Min to be so ruthless, and for a moment, he was at a loss for how to react.
In fact, if this were any other time, Yang Min would never have done something that would damage her own image. She was very protective of her reputation. But over the past two months on the set, she had been ostracized by the crew, and she had been burning with anger inside. And then, yesterday, as a young lady of the Yang family, she had been forced to share a room with a lowly assistant, which made her feel deeply humiliated.
Although she didn't think much of Li Wan, a third-rate actress, Li Wan was still an artist and a master, while her assistant was just a servant, like a maid or a servant. And today's incident was just a trigger, a way for her to vent her hatred for Yang Ling and her dissatisfaction with the crew, all of which she took out on her assistant.
"What are you waiting for? Come over here! Do I have to invite you?" Yang Min's cold gaze fell on her assistant.
The assistant trembled, but under Li Wan's gaze, she walked over and helped Yang Min up.
"Smack!"
Another slap landed on the assistant's face, and Yang Min shouted sharply, "You don't know who pays your salary? You're a freeloader!"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I won't do it again." The assistant sobbed, covering her face.
Chen Dechun frowned at the scene, but like Li Wan and the others, he couldn't afford to offend the Bai family behind Yang Min, let alone, it was a matter between two willing parties. Even if they didn't like it, they couldn't say anything.
However, the people around the crew looked at Yang Min with even more disgust.
Yang Min cursed a few more times before stopping and letting her assistant help her sit down and rest.
"Ling Ling, you have such a miserable stepsister." Xia Chen leaned over, looking sympathetic.
"She wouldn't dare to treat me like that." Yang Ling shook her head, not wanting to continue the topic. She found Wu Si and pulled Li Wan along to the makeup room.
Anyway, Yang Min only dared to vent her anger on others, she shouldn't be causing trouble for herself yet. In that case, Yang Ling didn't want to get involved.
She wasn't a saint, wherever there was injustice, she would take care of it.
Yang Min's incident could only be a side note. After a short break, everyone prepared for the upcoming shoot, with makeup artists doing their job and props being arranged.
Most of the scenes filmed in Yanshan were martial arts scenes, and they needed to use wirework.
Because she had no martial arts background, Yang Ling struggled at first, but compared to the other female artists, she learned quickly.
After a few tries, she mastered the tricks, and the following shoots went more smoothly.
"This Yang Ling is really born for this job!" Chen Dechun looked at the scene being filmed and couldn't help but exclaim.
"It's just a pity that there's a sister like Yang Min," the assistant director shook his head with regret written all over his face.
With a family like hers, even if one was outstanding, they could still be dragged down one day. Climbing up is already difficult enough, but if someone pulls you down, it becomes too easy.
"Shh~ Some things we know in our hearts, there's no need to say them out loud. The Bai family behind Yang Min is not to be blamed," Chen Dechun reminded with a frown.
"Oh, oh, oh, I didn't think of that. Let's not talk about it," the assistant director hurriedly said.
Chen Dechun looked in the direction of Yang Min in the distance, a bitter smile appearing
on his lips.
If he had known about Yang Min's personality from the beginning, he would never have agreed to let her join the crew. But now that it had already happened, he couldn't break his promise, or else Bai Yinfeng would never let him off.
From then on, every day of filming involved climbing up the half-mountain of Yan Mountain. Every time, Yang Min would lose her temper, and the intensity of her outbursts only grew.
In the end, whenever the crew went up the mountain together, they would purposely walk faster and leave Yang Min and her companion behind. They didn't want to provoke this rich girl, thank you very much!
Watching the crew become more and more distant from her, Yang Min felt a sense of urgency in her heart, but she couldn't control her temper.
Days passed in this manner, and before they knew it, a month had passed, and the filming of "Cloud
City Chronicles" had finally wrapped up.
"Congratulations, everyone. Today, I'm treating you all. You've all worked hard during this period, so relax and enjoy yourselves," Chen Dechun said with a smile.
"Great! I'm definitely going to make you pay for this, Director Chen," Xia Chen half-jokingly said.
As the male lead, he was criticized less often and could joke around with Chen Dechun a bit."Yeah, Director Chen, we must eat well!" Yang Ling laughed and continued.
In the entire crew, because Yang Ling always performed well during filming, she was also the most daring. She often joked with Chen Dechun, so naturally she wouldn't miss this opportunity.
This also proved the degree of her relationship with Chen Dechun.
"Don't worry, whatever you want to eat, we have it all!"
