Even after the assistant director finished his performance, Xiao He did not stop.

The person in the chair did not show any strange expression. He simply crossed his arms, leaned back, and calmly looked at the words on the wall next to him. He seemed to be carefully examining the slogans. His posture was relaxed and casual. There was neither a smug smile on his face nor the anxiety of facing an investigation.

No one knows what he's thinking.

No one could fathom the secrets hidden within those deep, icy eyes.

Then, as if in deep meditation, he slowly closed his eyes, making it impossible for anyone to see his true face again.

When Xiao He opened his eyes again, he had already snapped out of his previous state.

"My performance is over, thank you everyone."

Ning Jiaqi stared at Xiao He for a long time without saying a word, while Zhuang Hongyi smiled. Shu Han stood up and walked to Xiao He's side, looking at him with a complicated expression, but also with a hint of admiration.

"You guys really surprise me."

Ning Jiaqi pushed up his glasses and looked at Shu Han first: "Your acting skills have really improved a lot. I remember when you first auditioned, your performance was still a bit awkward, but now it's very different."

Shu Han smiled wryly: "After all these years, I have to improve myself, otherwise I'll be pushed out of the game by the younger generation."

"Ha ha--"

Ning Jiaqi laughed heartily, but did not respond to Shu Han's self-deprecating remark. Instead, he turned his gaze back to Xiao He: "The person who surprised me the most is still Xiao He. Before, your agent bragged to me about it. To be honest, I thought it was just some blatant liar talking nonsense in front of me. I almost wanted to block her and you together."

Xiao He immediately replied with a smile: "So I want to thank Director Ning for giving me a chance to show myself. And please don't block us, Director Ning, otherwise Sister Liu will have to apologize to me with me on my back."

"Look at what they're saying, it makes it seem like I'm in the wrong—"

Ning Jiaqi chuckled and shook his head helplessly, then suddenly asked, "You all must have some doubts about this script, right?"

Xiao He and Shu Han nodded in unison.

"Just share your understanding."

Ning Jiaqi raised his hand, gesturing for Shu Han to speak first.

“I think Shu Yuxiu definitely murdered his wife,” Shu Han began to elaborate on his opinion.

Xiao He listened from the side, nodding slightly from time to time.

Finally, Shu Han said, "So Shu Yuxiu is probably trying to clear his name and escape legal punishment."

Ning Jiaqi nodded, then looked at Xiao He: "What do you think?"

“I think Shu Yuxiu has been lying all along, and he’s confident of winning.”

Xiao He thought for a moment, then said, "Although according to the audition version of the plot, the interrogation in this audition scene takes place at the end of the story, I feel that the interrogation takes place at the beginning of the story."

Everyone was stunned for a moment after Xiao He spoke.

Ning Jiaqi seemed surprised that Xiao He could see through it, and his smile widened.
