Chapter 18 - Do you want me to cut off your family jewels?

Xin Mei looked at the papers in her hand with full concentration. These papers were of very much importance as they depicted the proper schedule plan of the movie revenge.

Each and every single detail of shooting location and shooting dates were penned down on these pages.

Revenge was a historical movie with various different scenes. Moreover, director Zhang is a perfectionist, so most of the shooting locations were in real place instead of some set.

Any special training which she needed during the shooting was also mentioned on the schedule. Her training plan was also written on it.

After going through the schedule, Xin Mei decided to call He Ye to clear the doubts which she had with the schedule.

"Ye gege, I just received the schedule of the movie but I think that my schedule has a mistake. It says that my first shooting schedule is at city B, within one week. Isn't it too soon?"

"Hey, my motor car. Will you stop speaking for a second?" He Ye chided her with a chuckle. "I am not your official manager so I don't have any idea about your schedule. I am sending you the number of Mr. Gong. He is assistant director. You can clear your doubts with him. Ok?"

"Ok gege."

He Ye hung up the call. Xin Mei checked her messages where He Ye had already sent her the contact of Mr. Gong. After taking huge gulps of breath, Xin Mei called Mr. Gong.

"Is it Mr. Gong speaking?"

"Yes, it is and may I know with whom I am talking too?"

"This is Xin Mei speaking. I will be playing the role of Ruyi in the movie Revenge," Xin Mei introduced herself.

"Oh ok. Do you have something that you have called me miss Xin?"

"Yes, I wanted to clear my doubt about shooting in city B. Don't you think that it's really soon? I mean we haven't even had a dress rehearsal till now."

"Oh that. I am sorry that I forget to inform you about this mini problem in the schedule Miss Xin." Mr. Gong apologized with sincerity.

"You must be aware that director Zhang is a perfectionist. He wants everything to be perfect for his film. Director Zhang feels that city B is the perfect location for the shoot of certain scenes in the movie, and according to him only this time of the year is perfect to shoot those scenes. You see, within a month, city B will have snowfall. So, director Zhang has decided that we will be shooting in city B within a week."

"Oh."

"And about other rehearsals, you have to reach at the location ten of film city tomorrow. Tomorrow, we will be doing the dress rehearsal for the scenes to be shot in city B. I will mail you other details regarding the schedule of city B."

And with that, Mr. Gong hung up the call.

Xin Mei waited for a few minutes and her mobile pinged with a mail from Mr. Gong. The mail had elaborated information about the schedule of city B.

They were to stay in city B for two weeks at most. Most of the shooting was to be taken place in the palace or forest surrounding it. Other information related to the scenes was also given in the mail.

After going through the mail, Xin Mei searched about the palace of city B and fall in love with it. The location selected was heavenly. City B wasn't much known these days so it had very less tourist which also made it an adequate place for shooting.

Xin Mei was surfing about city B on her laptop when her mobile rung. Without seeing the caller, she picked up the call.

"Meimei." She heard from the other side of the phone. Immediately a frown appeared in between her brows on recognizing the familiar voice.

"Why are you calling me? Didn't I clearly tell you that I no longer know you?" Xin Mei spoke in a very cold manner.

"Meimei, I know it's not like that. How can you end our relationship with me like this? I know I have done a mistake. I-"

"Mistake?" Xin Mei chuckled. "Was it really a mistake? You have done a crime Qian Fan. For a major part of my life, you have cheated me. You made me see a dream which you were never going to fulfill. You used me as a stepping stone for the success of your own company. It wasn't a mistake Qian Fan."

"Ok, ok, I agree that it was a crime. But please forgive me. In last month, I had missed you very much. I realized that unknowingly I had fallen in love with you."

Voice of Qian Fan was broken and filled with guilt. It could move any person but not Xin Mei. She was no longer a naïve girl.

"Bravo, Qian Fan. You can act really well, better than Zhou Mingyu." Xin Mei mocked. "Your bad luck, now this Xin Mei isn't going to fall for your drama. I have seen your real face. I am not an idiot to go running to you ever again. Forget about forgiveness Qian Fan and dare of you to call me ever again. No one will be worse than me if you ever try to call me again."

After her warning, without listening to the reply of Qian Fan, Xin Mei hung up the call. She sighed and threw her head back. A mocking smile left her lips.

What did Qian Fan think of himself? He really thought that she could be fooled after all this?

Xin Mei was bubbling with anger. If Qian Fan was standing in front of her then probably, she would have murdered him.

Xin Mei was murmuring curses for Qian Fan when her mobile again rung. She again picked up the call without watching the id.

"Didn't I warn you to not call me again? Do you want me to cut off your family jewels? Don't forget about my fighting skills!" Xin Mei spoke out of anger.

"Meimei, what wrong have I done that you want to take away my right from producing heirs?"

Her eyes widened when she heard a familiar voice which didn't belong to Qian Fan. With wide eyes, she looked at the mobile screen only to curse herself upon seeing the caller.

How could she curse him like this?
