"Why can't you slap me for real? It's our job anyway." Yan Huan touched her face, "Your job is to slap, and mine is to offer my face. But, you've got to perform well. I don't want to go through that a second time, so it'd better be a one-shot take. My face is in your hands."
"Alright." Xu Nuo bit his teeth and agreed.
Yan Huan nodded toward the director, and Yan Hua understood her. He had been preparing to shoot. There would not be a problem with the front part, as Yan Huan and Xu Nuo had practiced several times in private. Yan Huan often practiced with Xu Nuo, so they were already familiar with each other, and did not seem to be working together for the first time. Sometimes a glance or a movement was all they needed to read each other's minds. They knew what to do, so when one of them had problems, the other one could improvise the performance immediately. Scenes with the presence of both of them were rarely cut, and the outcomes came out quite naturally.
