Chapter 92 My Stubborn Princess

Chapter 92 My Stubborn Princess

Jiang Tiantian picked up the spoon and tasted the caviar. It was delicate and delicious, with a scent of the ocean in her mouth. She instantly showed a look of happiness and satisfaction.

"It's so delicious, Shishi, you should try it too. I'll order another one."

Hearing her best friend's praise, Liu Shishi also picked up a spoon and took a small sip of it. The food slid into her mouth, and her taste buds blossomed. She couldn't help but nod, it was indeed a delicious dish.

The two ate and talked. Jiang Tiantian drank an iced drink to cool off and said, "You interned at Tengda last summer. You didn't join the crew until August. If you have nothing to do during this period, would you like to come to the company to help me?"

Liu Shishi shook her head and said, "I plan to go to a driving school in July to learn how to drive and get my driver's license." She has made arrangements during this period of time. After getting her driver's license, she will personally drive the little brother for a ride.

Jiang Tiantian is an experienced person who knows the pain of learning to drive in the hot summer. She couldn't help but exclaimed, "The summer sun is so hot. If you learn to drive in Beijing in this weather, you will probably be tanned like an African!"

"Sister Tiantian, it's not that exaggerated. I will protect myself from the sun. And Song Ci told me that it's okay to get a little sun exposure.

Otherwise, I would be too quiet and not look like a cashier working in a supermarket, which would not be a good match for the role of Tang Xiaolian. "

Seeing that Miss Liu didn't believe it, Jiang Tiantian had no choice but to say, "You decide for yourself. Even if you are considering the role, you have to put on sunscreen. The sun is too strong these days."

Liu Shishi nodded slightly and agreed, "That's natural." She couldn't get too tanned, and she couldn't be outdone by Shen Sisi in terms of looks.

Seeing that Liu Shishi was enjoying her meal, Jiang Tiantian said, "By the way, Shishi, I have something to trouble you with."

"What's the matter?" Liu Shishi looked up at her best friend in confusion, wondering what she needed her help with.

I was secretly wondering what was going on today. I suddenly became so popular that everyone came to me.

It was indeed not a difficult task, so Jiang Tiantian said frankly: "Wait until Mr. Song finishes his project, and when he is in a good mood, you can tell me."

Jiang Tiantian just wanted to find a good opportunity to communicate with Song Ci about the job transfer. She had already reported to Wang Jing and there would be no problem.

As long as Song Ci had no objection, there would be no big problem for her to be transferred to the group, so she wanted to wait until Song Ci was in a good mood to talk about it, so that the chances of success would be higher.

"No problem, it's a piece of cake!" Liu Shishi felt that this was just a piece of cake. Her boyfriend was always in a good mood when he was with her.

"Thank you, Master!"

Jiang Tiantian was excited to see Liu Shishi agree immediately. She had worked hard to build this network of contacts, which was useful at a critical moment. When she was transferred to the group, she would have a wider platform and would be more conducive to advancement.

He enthusiastically brought a piece of sushi and placed it in front of Miss Liu, inviting her to taste it.

While the two were happily chatting, Zeng Jia brought Yang Mi to this Japanese restaurant for dinner after get off work.

As soon as she entered the restaurant, Yang Mi saw Liu Shishi sitting by the window chatting and laughing from afar. She was wearing a simple and pure white dress, which made her very recognizable.

"Jia Jie, the woman in white is Liu Shishi!"

Zeng Jia followed Yang Mi's gaze and saw that it was indeed the girl who was on last year's school beauty list.

The woman sitting opposite Liu Shishi also looked somewhat familiar. Upon closer inspection, she found that it was the company's deputy general manager Jiang Tiantian.

Looking at the two of them talking and laughing, Zeng Jia showed an expression of "as expected". No wonder Zhang Zhao refused to use Wang Luodan and Lu Yi despite the pressure.

I think it was to give face to Jiang Tiantian. After all, unlike Yu Xin who had a shallow foundation, Jiang Tiantian had a big Buddha behind him.

Zeng Jia, who thought he had seen through the truth, did not bother Jiang Tiantian. Some things are more valuable if left unsaid. He pulled Yang Mi away and quietly sat down in another corner of the store.

After sitting down, Zeng Jia took a few more sneaky glances to make sure Jiang Tiantian didn't notice him before explaining to Yang Mi:

"The person opposite Liu Shishi is the vice president of Tengda Culture. Mimi, you should understand now!

It’s not that you don’t have the ability, your opponent is a resourceful person who relies on connections, but that’s how it is in the circle, whoever has wide connections and a strong background will easily get ahead.”

Yang Mi has a tough personality and is very unwilling to accept the defeat. She looks at Liu Shishi, who is smiling, from afar, her eyes full of stubbornness.

Zeng Jia's words only aroused her competitive spirit. Her family did not have the resources in the film and television industry, but she did not believe that she could not make a name for herself in the entertainment industry through her own efforts.

At this moment, a passionate and enterprising spirit awakened in her, and she made up her mind to compete with this girl of the same age to see who would do better in this complicated entertainment industry in the future!

The warm summer breeze at night is not as hot and scorching as during the day, but brings a hint of coolness and comfort.

A little after eight o'clock in the evening, in front of the Oriental Plaza Shopping Center.

Jiang Tiantian was carrying shopping bags, looking at Liu Shishi who had just declined her offer to drive her home, and asked with concern: "It's so late, do you really not need me to take you home?"

After dinner, the two of them strolled around the mall for more than two hours. When they stopped, Liu Shishi suddenly felt sore in both feet and a sense of fatigue surged through her body. "No need to trouble you, Sister Tiantian, Song Ci is here to pick me up!"

"So thoughtful! Hua Guo is a good boyfriend!" Jiang Tiantian was a little envious. Liu Shishi was so lucky. Where could she find such a caring and considerate good man? She also wanted one.

Liu Shishi said with concern, "It's getting dark, drive slowly when you go back, Sister Tiantian."

Jiang Tiantian made an OK gesture to Miss Liu to reassure her. "Don't worry, send me a text message when you get home."

The two waved goodbye, and after watching Jiang Tiantian leave, Liu Shishi turned around and went to the parking lot to look for Song Ci.

After a lot of effort, Liu Shishi finally found Song Ci's low-key and luxurious Phaeton sedan among the rows of parking spaces. From a distance, she saw her boyfriend leaning against the passenger door in a daze.

Miss Liu walked lightly and came to Song Ci. She smiled and said softly, "Yi Yi, I've kept you waiting for a long time."

Song Ci was thinking about his work during the day when he heard a familiar voice and came to his senses. He found that his girlfriend was standing in front of him with a beautiful smile on her face.

After a busy day, I suddenly felt happy when I saw the pure and moving Shi Ye in white clothes and skirt.

In a playful mood, he smiled at Liu Shishi, opened the car door like a gentleman, bent down and stretched out his hand, and jokingly said, "Princess, please get in the car."

Liu Shishi was so delighted by these words that she smiled brightly, with love blooming on her face.

With her legs slightly bent and the center of gravity of her body on her toes, she bowed to Song Ci in a standard way. Her movements were smooth and graceful, and she said coquettishly, "Thank you, my prince."

Song Ci took Miss Liu's delicate and soft hand and helped her up. He leaned over and kissed her smooth forehead gently, "Get in the car, Shibao."

Liu Shishi's heart was pounding and she was dazzled. The little brother was getting better and better at sweet talk. She couldn't resist it at all.

Song Ci pushed her into the passenger seat in a daze, and she stared at her boyfriend's perfect profile that was so close, clear and stylish as he helped her fasten her seat belt.

Liu Shishi's face turned red and her heart was beating fast, and she was full of love. She couldn't help but press her cherry-like red lips on him.

Song Ci couldn't help himself any longer, so he hugged Shi Ye's little head and without waiting for her reaction, he lowered his head and kissed her soft and plump lips.

Liu Shishi instinctively wrapped her arms around her boyfriend, shyly responding to his fierce and wild movements, and feeling his fiery passion.

After a long time, their lips parted. Liu Shishi was panting, her body limp as if boneless, as she collapsed on the passenger seat. Her eyes were blurred and her face was rosy, which made her even more charming.

Thinking back to someone's outrageous behavior, Liu Shishi slowly came to her senses and said to Song Ci, who was busy starting the car, "Stinky man!"

Song Ci gripped the steering wheel and drove the car out of the parking lot. Thinking of Shi Ye's active response after he was aroused, he smiled and said proudly, "Stinky man? Then you wanted to stick your tongue in just now."

Liu Shishi's face, which had gradually returned to normal, turned red again. She covered her pretty face with both hands and said angrily, "Nonsense! It's all your fault for teasing me. Your hands were not honest just now!"

Song Ci didn't say anything either, he knew that Miss Liu was shy, he just smiled and said, "It's normal for a young man full of vigor and vitality to kiss, hug and touch his girlfriend!"

The car drove smoothly on the smooth and flat streets of Beijing. Song Ci carefully observed the road conditions while asking his girlfriend: "I haven't had time to ask you, how was the audition?"

Liu Shishi supported her head with one hand, looked sideways at the fleeting night scene of the city outside the car window, and said calmly as if resigned to her fate: "What else can I do? You have arranged everything. It's just a formality."

Jiang Tiantian talked a lot with her tonight, and she also came to terms with it. She decided to be a resource person without worries!

There is no way, I have a childhood sweetheart, a handsome, rich and considerate boyfriend, I am lucky! This person, you have to accept your fate, you can't just endure it without suffering, right?

Song Ci nodded slightly. It was good that Shi Ye was willing to accept the arrangement. After all, his girlfriend had not seen the cruel competition in the entertainment industry. He was afraid that Miss Liu might be influenced by gossip and refuse to accept his kindness. That would be meaningless.

Then he reminded her, "Shishi, please inform Cai Yinong. We still need to sign a contract with the crew. You need to discuss the pay and schedule with her. After all, she is your agent."

"Oh, yes. I'll call Sister K now." Liu Shishi suddenly realized that she had been left alone by Tangren Company for half a year and had almost forgotten that she had an agency.

"Ms. K, good evening. Is it convenient for us to talk?"

There was a hint of alienation in Liu Shishi's polite words. The last time they contacted each other, she was the one telling Cai Yinong about his guest appearance on the set of "Wulin Waijiao". Two or three months had passed in a flash, and it was inevitable that they felt a little unfamiliar.

Cai Yinong also remembered that there was a female artist in the company who had been left alone. He thought that the little girl had something important to tell her at night, so he controlled his tone and said as gently as possible: "Shishi, what's the matter?"

"Sister K, I got a role as the female lead in a movie."

"Movie! The heroine!" Cai Yinong, who was originally planning to rest early, suddenly became energetic and asked quickly: "Tell me in detail."

Liu Shishi then told Cai Yinong about how she had auditioned for the female lead in "Night Club" at Tengda Culture in the afternoon and was chosen by the director. She naturally omitted the part about Song Ci helping her with connections.

This is another project of Tenda Culture, and it features such an important resource as the female lead on the big screen.

Cai Yinong seemed to be thinking about something. She remembered that Lv Yi who participated in "The Fairy From the Other World" seemed to be an artist of Tengda Culture.

According to Liu Shishi's description, she felt that the heroine of this movie should not be a complicated character.

Since Liu Shishi can play Lu Yi, there should be no problem with it. Moreover, the investment is small and there will basically be no loss, which is conducive to the actor building reputation.

The little girl was able to squeeze out Tengda’s own artists. It seems that she has a close relationship with Tengda’s top management.

Cai Yinong would naturally encourage such a good thing as being able to play the female lead in a movie.

"Very good, Master. I will come to Peking tomorrow and help you deal with this matter."

Barely sensing a hint of her boss's attention to her, Liu Shishi politely replied, "Thank you, Sister K. I'll pick you up at the airport tomorrow."

"No, let's meet somewhere."

Cai Yinong, who was far away in the East China Sea, couldn't help but ask again: "Shishi, is there a role suitable for Hu Ge in this movie?"

There was a hint of eagerness in Cai Yinong's voice. Although Tangren Film and Television was the leading costume drama company together with Zhouyi Film and Television, it had almost no resources for the big screen.

It's rare for one of her female artists to have the connections to play the leading role in a movie, so she wondered if she could bring along the company's top boss Hu Ge.

Liu Shishi didn't think too much about it and told the truth, "Sister K, the male lead should be selected internally. You may need to audition for other roles yourself. Tengda is auditioning other supporting roles these two days."

Cai Yinong could not help but shake her head. Without any special connections, it would be a waste of time for her to let Hu Ge go to Beijing for an interview. Tengda was a Beijing-based film and television company. Without any exchange of interests, why would they hire people from a Shanghai-based company?

Liu Shishi is young after all. Every year, major film and television companies and crews organize so many auditions, and more than half of them are internally selected.

If interviews were entirely based on the actors' own abilities, there wouldn't be so many unspoken rules in the entertainment industry.

Things like using beauty to seduce men and selling one's looks are the lowest level of behavior that cannot be shown on the table. A big production with an investment of tens or hundreds of millions of dollars involves interests beyond imagination, and each character has a price secretly marked on him.

Cai Yinong talked to Liu Shishi for a few more words, then hung up the phone in a hurry to book a flight to Peking early the next morning.

Song Ci heard the conversation clearly and chuckled with a hint of sarcasm: "Cai Yinong really loves Hu Ge and thinks of him for all the good things."

Liu Shishi whispered with some longing, "Hu Ge is the pillar of the company after all, so Sister K will naturally think more about him." When will she be able to become the number one sister in the company and become the face of Tangren Film and Television like Hu Ge.

Song Ci stared at the dark yellow lights on the road, her voice soft but firm and irresistible.

"Shishi, when Cai Yinong comes tomorrow, you should have a good talk with her. If she still lets you go like this, then terminate your contract with Tangren."

Compared with Hu Ge, our own Shi Ye is simply an unwanted wild child. Now that Tengda Group is in its heyday, their own company can also shoot "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" and "Startling by Each Step", and can even give her better ones.

Liu Shishi stared at her boyfriend's profile, still a little stubborn in her heart. After a long while, she replied in a low voice, "I know, dear."
