At 2 PM, the sky was clear and blue.

The temperature is pleasant.

The film crew was shooting on the outdoor lawn.

The director stared at the camera, his face incredibly grim, and once again yelled "Cut!" at the two lead actors.

Leila was incredibly annoyed. This was the director's 28th "cut" of the day; they had been filming the same scene since morning.

Of course, it's not her fault. She's always been a great actress and often nails a scene in one take. The problem lies with Linda, the actress who replaced Ellie.

She glared angrily at Linda, who was apologizing to the director with an innocent look on her face, and said sternly.

"Hey, do you even know how to act? If you can't, go home and drink your milk. Stop dragging me down with you. Have you no shame?"

Linda initially felt apologetic towards Leila, since she had dragged Leila down, but upon hearing Leila's insults, she instantly became furious.

"You're shameless! Don't you have any manners? I'm a newbie! As a senior, can't you be a little more tolerant of me?"

Leila retorted without holding back.

"I'm tolerant of you, but do you want to watch the replay? What did you do that makes me tolerate you? Your acting was so embarrassing it made my toes curl up in the ground. If I were you, I'd just find a crack in the ground and crawl into it!"

She had to admit that she was starting to miss Ellie. Although Ellie was very scheming, at least she was a good actress and wouldn't be a burden to her like Linda was.

Linda clenched her fist. "Say that again if you dare!"

"What's wrong with me saying it again, I..."

Before Leila could speak, she was coldly interrupted by Su Luo, who was supervising the work not far away.

"Enough, stop arguing. Everyone, take a break. Linda, come with me!"

Leila glared at Linda, then turned and walked quickly toward her RV.

Linda obediently walked up to Su Luo and whispered, "Mr. Su, I really didn't mean it. I'm just not feeling well today."

Su Luo said helplessly.

"Please be quiet for a moment and come to my office."

"Um."

Linda followed Sulo to the office quickly.

Su Luo handed her the termination agreement and said regretfully.

“I don’t want to fire you either, but you’ve been in bad shape for three days now, and you haven’t made any progress at all.”

Both he and Mia misjudged her. Linda's acting was quite good on the day of her audition, and she was also quite pretty. But for some reason, she seemed like a completely different person once she got to the set.

He had discussed it with Mia that morning and decided to decline her offer. Her presence on set would delay the filming schedule and waste a lot of money.

Linda clutched the contract tightly, her eyes filled with grievance and helplessness as she looked at Su Luo and pleaded.

"President Su, please give me another chance, okay? I don't care if I'm not the lead actress, I'm fine with being a supporting actress, I really can't live without this job. You know I still have to pay my mortgage and car loan..."

Su Luo scratched her head, looking very troubled. This girl really wasn't suited to be an actress. She was pretty, but she had no acting skills at all. Even casting her as a supporting actress would affect the quality of the show.

After thinking for a while, a brilliant idea struck me.

"Linda, my friend's company is hiring print models, and the salary and benefits are pretty good. If you're interested, I can ask them for you."

Linda's acting skills are not good, but she has good looks, so she should have no problem being a model.

Linda said excitedly, "Okay, thank you so much, Mr. Su. Thank you so much."

As long as I can make money, there's nothing wrong with being a model.

Su Luo smiled and said, "You're welcome."

Linda said politely.

"Then I won't bother you any longer, goodbye."

Su Luo nodded slightly.

After Linda left the office, Su Luo began to have a headache.

The female lead is gone again, and they have to choose a new actress.

This is so difficult!

Making movies is much more troublesome than making short dramas.

Just as Su Luo was having a headache, her phone on the corner of the table started vibrating.

Su Luo looked up and saw that it was Ye Xiaotian calling. It was rare for him to reach out to her.

Without thinking much, Su Luo picked up the phone and pressed the answer button.

Ye Xiaotian's cheerful voice came through the receiver.

"Brother Luo, wanna go out for drinks tonight? I'm free today, and this time I definitely won't run away halfway through."

Su Luo said wearily, "Never mind, I'm a bit tired today, and I have a terrible headache."

He's really not in the mood to go out drinking right now; he just wants to find a suitable leading lady as soon as possible.

Ye Xiaotian asked in confusion.

"What's wrong? Something bothering you? Tell me, maybe I can help you."

Su Luo sighed and said with a smile.

"I can't help. I've had to fire the lead actress again, and I have to find a new one. Where am I supposed to find a good actress with solid acting skills and stunning looks in such a short time? Oh, and she has to be young, no more than thirty years old."

"Huh? Now that you mention it, I actually know someone like that. Her acting is superb, and she's beautiful from every angle—completely natural and hasn't had any work done!"

Su Luo raised an eyebrow slightly, her eyes brightening.

"Who is it? Introduce it to me quickly."

Ye Xiaotian said smugly, "My girlfriend Xiyue, she happens to be free right now, I'll ask her for you later."

Su Luo gasped.

"You're really making fun of me. Lin Xiyue is already a top-tier actress, with such a high status. How could I possibly hire her? Don't forget that I have a limited budget."

Ye Xiaotian said generously.

"Money is no problem. We're like family. Besides, she's not just taking roles to make money these days. She looks at the script and the director. The director you hired is pretty good, isn't he? I'll let her take a look at the script. Maybe she'll like it."

He had his own ulterior motives. If Lin Xiyue came to Su Luo's company, she would be very close to him, and he could see her anytime.

Lin Xiyue's previous film crew was in Haicheng, and it was very difficult for him to meet them. This way, he could not only see Lin Xiyue every day, but also see Su Luo at the same time. It was a win-win situation and couldn't be more awesome.

Su Luo felt a warmth in her heart and said gently.

"Then you should talk to her about it, but don't force her, and don't let this cause any unpleasantness between you."

He didn't have high hopes for this, but he couldn't very well refuse Ye Xiaotian's kind offer.

Ye Xiaotian promised.

"Okay, don't worry, I'll ask her about it tomorrow. Don't worry about it."

"Um."

"Alright, you can get back to work now."

"good."

After hanging up the phone, Su Luo rubbed her throbbing temples.

Then he picked up his coffee, just about to drink it.

The phone rang again.

Su Luo frowned slightly. This time it was an unfamiliar caller. Su Luo thought it was a delivery.

Put down your coffee and press the call button.

A strange yet familiar female voice came from inside.

“Suluo”.

Su Luo was slightly taken aback and asked nervously.

"Song Lingshan?"

Song Lingshan smiled. "You still recognize me? Where are you?"

Su Luo swallowed hard. "Is something the matter?"

His intuition told him that Song Lingshan must have something very important to tell him.

After all, she had never contacted him in the past five years.
