All the scenes planned for the morning were completed in a smooth fashion. The director was glad to see that Tang Feng and Gino's collaboration were up to his standards, but there were still a few hiccups here and there during filming. For the first take of the kiss scene, Gino had used too much force and ended up pushing Tang Feng into the ground.

For the second take, Tang Feng held his spot, Gino also used less force, but the director was the one unhappy this time. "Have the two of you been dating for ten years? Come on, I want to see some excitement and conflict! Now's not the time to be lovey-dovey."

Everybody laughed at the director's remarks.

They finally passed the scene during the third take. However, Gino had bitten Tang Feng's lips during the kiss, and a trace of blood lingered beside Tang Feng's lips when they broke apart. The director quickly ordered a close-up shot of Tang Feng's face and praised Gino for his unintended mistake. The followers of God were kissing in front of the figure of God, and one of the monks had received a bitten lip in the process. They had broken another taboo; exactly as the director had wanted it.

Tang Feng took a break in his trailer while a few assistants took off his makeup and cleaned up the wound on his lip. It was common for celebrities to have a few assistants around them. It wasn't for the sake of appearing important, it was simply a necessary step in becoming a professional actor. A professional actor needed a professional team backing him up.

Lu Tian Chen had found quite a few people from Hollywood to help him, but it'd turned out the same as the last time that Lu Tian Chen had found a tutor for him: Tang Feng ended up becoming the tutor himself. In the end, Tang Feng picked out the members of his team himself. After spending a few decades in the industry, Tang Feng had a pair of discerning eyes. He knew where to look to find the people he needed.

Sometimes, a foreign billionaire wasn't as efficient and resourceful as a native of the country.

For the majority of the time, Tang Feng liked to hole up in his trailer alone. After the assistants finished their work, they left the trailer without exchanging any small talk. Tang Feng especially liked this professionality of theirs.

Small talk and other conversations could be saved for outside of work. Even if he were taking a break, he was still focused on the movie.

He had to go over the script for the scenes this afternoon and prepare himself.

"Gino sure used a lot of force." Tang Feng stared at his lip in the mirror. He was missing a layer of skin, but it wasn't too bad. His efforts weren't all for naught; they'd passed in just three takes.

At that moment, the sound of knocking came on his trailer door.

Tang Feng stood up. Was it one of the staff members who'd forgotten to tell him about something? Or was Gino here to go over the script again?

He'd only opened the door a smidgeon, but the person outside immediately forced the door open themselves. Tang Feng was forced to take a few steps backwards. The person squeezed themselves into the trailer and shut the door behind them.

"Charles, when did―" When did you come back?

Before Tang Feng could finish his words, Charles had already caught his mouth in a kiss. The man wrapped his arms tightly around Tang Feng's shoulders and waist, his tongue attacking the other's mouth like a machine gun firing at a wall. Tang Feng pushed at him, but Charles forced him step by step onto the trailer's bed like a stubborn ox.
