Has Big Shot Fallen in Love Today?-Chapter 641: Might Be Hungry

Chapter 641: Chapter 641: Might Be Hungry
In Ai Xiao’s usual medicine box, besides spare nutritional drugs, there is also an emetic.
Sometimes, she can’t control her appetite just like normal people.
But for entertainers, losing control is very dangerous. If their work gets busy and they don’t have time to exercise, the food they eat will quickly turn into flesh, showing on their face or arms.
Ai Xiao uses a drug that induces vomiting.
This is more comfortable than manually inducing vomiting with fingers, but of course it can’t be taken long-term, at most once a month.
Now, she’s being driven crazy by the director and doesn’t dare to say she won’t act; she’s also suffocated by Sheng Tang.
So, she plans to use this method to make herself vomit on the spot.
Then she’ll say it was Sheng Tang who drugged her water.
"She’s the only one who touched my water. I’m usually fine, why did I suddenly vomit? Who else could it be?" Ai Xiao plans to say.
By doing so, Sheng Tang would feel guilty when acting next, and combined with the contempt from the team, she wouldn’t dare to be so dominant.
Ai Xiao can then act at her own pace, bringing Sheng Tang’s performance down to her level.
To the director, she can act coy: "I was schemed against by President Gu’s girlfriend. Can’t I catch a break? Go ahead and call President Gu."
Even if it reaches President Gu, she’s still justified.
In short, she wants to change the current situation: she’s the worst in the whole team, yet she’s the lead actress, and everyone despises her, even the director doesn’t show her any extra care.
Ai Xiao thinks that sacrificing a bit for a chance to breathe isn’t bad, after all, the last time she took this emetic was two months ago.
At this frequency, it’s fine, though it makes her very uncomfortable.
She drank the water and continued working.
She still couldn’t cry, couldn’t immerse herself in Li Hong’s role, and the director wasn’t satisfied, his tone even became stern.
Ai Xiao waited for the emetic to take effect.
It should be quick, at most ten minutes.
First, there will be a slight swelling and pain in the stomach. However, after fifteen minutes, her stomach had no reaction, instead, she felt very hungry.
Another five minutes passed, Ai Xiao felt it was coming, and immediately held her stomach.
"I want to vomit, I feel very uncomfortable..." she said to the director, looking very pained.
People around her gathered.
The director showed concern: "Do you need to go to the hospital?"
Ai Xiao still wanted to act strong, waiting to vomit on the spot, to let everyone know Sheng Tang harmed her just for making Sheng Tang shoot extra takes.
But she didn’t vomit.
She made a vomiting pose, but her stomach felt normal, without the stormy feeling from the drug and nothing surged up.
She couldn’t vomit.
"What’s going on?" she wondered.
She had taken the emetic three times before and it worked every time, why not this time?
"If it really doesn’t work, should someone take you to the town hospital?" Sheng Tang said beside her.
Ai Xiao looked at her.
"Both Sheng Tang and I have scenes this afternoon, maybe your assistant should take you?" Qian Zhe Lin said, then looked around but couldn’t find Ai Xiao’s assistant.
Ai Xiao, in order to plot against Sheng Tang, had deliberately given her assistant a day off.
If her assistant was present, how could she get Sheng Tang to fetch water for her?
In the end, the director got two staff members to take Ai Xiao to the town’s hospital.
The doctor did a simple examination and took an X-ray of her stomach, finding no issues.
"Maybe you’re just hungry," the doctor said, "If you’re still worried, go to the big hospital in S City, our small hospital can’t find anything."
Ai Xiao’s face changed.
