Chapter 63 – Late Night Robbery

Su Jishi turned to look at her: “What’s the matter?”

“This is the costume for this show. The production team is still adjusting the equipment. You must change your clothes first!”

“Alright, alright.”

Summer nights are always bustling and the business district hit by heavy traffic jams. It was not only until 10 o’clock in the evening that the roads were finally evacuated of vehicles and people.

The photography team hurried to set up a camera track on the road, and the others were also doing their jobs, adjusting and setting-up different equipment. At the corner of the street, more than 20 groups of performers were leaning on the roadside, dozing off. They would definitely shoot all night tonight so these performers desperately tries to get some sleep.

Su Jishi boarded the nanny van and quickly changed her clothes. Today’s costume was a bat sleeve T-shirt with black denim shorts, a pair of sneakers, and thus, a pair of long legs exposed in the camera.

Su Jishi’s legs were straight and long, with tight muscles and beautiful shape. Unfortunately, the only problem lies in her dark skin color. She often explored the wilderness. Even if she has physical sun protection all over her body, the hot sun still penetrated her cloth and burn her skin.

Ashan threw a box of powder cakes to Xiao Xia and the two worked together to put a thick layer of foundation on all Su Jishi’s exposed skin in an attempt to cover her dark complexion.

Xiao Xia mumbled while applying foundation, “Sister Su, I wanted to ask before, why did you suddenly get so dark when you went to the United States for a few days? It’s been a month, and your pearly-white skin complexion was yet to come back!”

Su Jishi didn’t say a word, Ashan also pretended to be deaf and dumb.

After a while, Fang Xie also came in. Seeing that the three men were still busy, he hastened to urge: “You hurry up, the outside equipment has been adjusted, and Zhou Jing is already in place. Sister Su must come out the soonest. People will say that our Sister Su is playing the big card and will use it against her!”

Several people could be heard talking outside when suddenly a loud noise from the direction of the production team caught everyone’s attention.

“Eighty thousand? No way! That is too much!” The assistant director yelled at one group of civilians outside the production area.

“Boss, don’t you see how many people I have here? There are so many mouths to feed!” The leader of the group disagreed.

“Fifth eldest brother—” cooed the assistant director, calling the leader of the ruffians by his pseudonym. “What if I give you a lesser amount and invite you and your pals to dinner?”

“But what you are offering is only a few cents! Is that the entertainment had to send us away?” The man beckoned one of his companions and said. “Man, bring the men here! ”

“You! Do what you want and I’ll surely call the police!” was the warning of the fuming assistant director. The men, however, looked unbothered.

“Go on! Call the police and report! We are law-abiding and good citizens. We are not hurting anyone or anything. You only rented this area. The rest of the road is a public place! We ordinary citizens want to do something on the road, we are not in your way, aren’t we?

“But you are distur—”

Before the assistant director’s voice fell, the deafening rock music resounded through the entire set.

“Listen to the 99 roses song!” The men gave out crackled laughters, their head banged with the music.

The rock music was brain-wracking as it used a super-large decibel loudspeakers to amplify. Wh Su Jishi never listened to this kind of song and she was deflected by this strange and scandalous rhythm in an instant.

She was not alone in this dilemma, the other three people in the nanny car were subconsciously covering their ears, not wanting to let the rock music erode their fragile cranial nerves.

Fang Xie fumed while looking for earplugs,”These shameless people are really everywhere, greedy, sly pigs!!”

Next to Ashan, Xiao Xia nodded in agreement, it seemed that for them, this was already a common thing.

However, this was new to Su Jishi.

She grabbed Fang Xie and frowned. “What are they doing? How can I shoot with such loud music ”

“Their purpose is to interfere with the filming of the crew!” Through the explanation of Fang Xie, Su Jishi finally found out the truth of the matter.

It turns out that they met the most common situation encountered by public outdoor filming—robbery.
