Upon arriving at the film set, Shen Jianian was still contemplating how to execute the slap while getting her makeup done. After repeated practice and adjustments, she felt she could precisely control the force.
Next, it depended on Tong Yan's cooperation.
Compared to Shen Jianian's nervousness, Tong Yan appeared much more at ease, perhaps because she was the one to be slapped. Initially, she was very resistant to playing such a scene, whether in real life or in the drama, being slapped was damaging to one's dignity.
But she thought of a way to regain her face in front of Shen Jianian, so she was naturally willing to take the slap.
Last time, Tong Yan was publicly criticized by Director Wang for her acting being inferior to Shen Jianian, and a stone had been lodged in her heart ever since. Every time she thought of it, she was so angry she gnashed her teeth, hoping to find a chance to turn the tables.
Today was her chance to make a comeback.
