First, when the Xiang family framed Xiang Zhinian, the latter's reaction was within the plot setting. She did not inexplicably deviate from the plot as before and give her care that was contrary to the plot setting.

Then they found a new agent for her, who was very capable and tough. He got her countless advertisements and auditions. Xiang Wanning was busy every day, but she failed every audition, so she was sent to the film school of University A to study acting and theoretical knowledge.

Xiang Wanning thought of finding joy in misery, which laid a solid foundation for her later acting.

After all, "Remembering Linglong" is about to start filming. As a resource that Meng Xinlan got for herself before she went to jail, it is also an important plot node in the script.

In the third month after joining the crew, she was exposed to the crew by the crew staff for slandering Xiang Zhinian, and then was disciplined by Xiang Zhinian's studio, and then the role of the second female lead was replaced.

Although Xiang Zhinian's studio did not publicly explain the reason, it could not prevent the crew's paparazzi and photographers, and soon, news such as "Xiang Wanning cursed the entire crew when her role was replaced" and "Xiang Wanning said that the show would lose its soul without her" spread across the Internet like wings.

After Xiang Wanning was replaced, the crew completed the filming and editing in just two months. The drama was aired on the Cherry platform half a year later and became a hit.

When the drama became a hit, all these old accounts were dug up again. She was verbally abused and slandered at various events. When she returned to the Xiang family, she saw the "culprit" acting like a spoiled child in the arms of her biological parents. She was determined to take back the love they had poured into Xiang Zhinian, so she began her six-month-long attempt to please him.

During the past six months, Xiang Wanning deliberately restrained her temper and carefully tried to please everyone in the Xiang family. She was even very polite to the servants and housekeepers, and did not even do anything to Xiang Zhinian.

Xiang Wanning's eyes lit up, and she suddenly realized that the day she was kicked out of the crew would be her half-year vacation! As the saying goes, after a slap in the face, you will be given a sweet date, and after eating the sweet date, you will have to slap again.

After Xiang Wanning flipped through the script, she sadly discovered that the time was not far from being cut off from her family, kicked out of the Xiang family, having her legs amputated, and being sent to a nursing home!

She continued reading: After Xiang Wanning failed to please everyone, she chose to steal the project plan from Xiang Chisong's bedroom, but was discovered on the spot again.

Xiang Zhinian could no longer bear it and exposed Xiang Wanning's true face in front of everyone, and her biological mother was disappointed and said she would cut off relations with her. Xiang Wanning couldn't believe that no one stood by her side. When her luggage was thrown out of the door, she ran out of the Xiang family in despair and anger, and had a car accident on the spot, resulting in high-level amputation of both legs.

call out--

A piece of chalk hit Xiang Wanning's head. The professor on the podium was talking about "non-physical performance". He glanced at her and saw that Xiang Wanning was daydreaming. He couldn't help but pound the table in anger: "Xiang Wanning, stand up!"

She was taking a class at the Film Academy of University A at the time. After hearing the voice, before Xiang Wanning stood up, the students of the Film Academy of University A in the classroom had subconsciously looked at her.

Xiang Wanning: ...

Being stared at by so many eyes, she suddenly felt a little panicked, her eyelids twitched uncontrollably, and she thought: [Are they asking me to demonstrate? ]

What you fear is bound to happen. After she finished speaking, the professor shouted in a loud voice, "It's just right for you to come up and perform for everyone!"

Xiang Wanning: ...

What performance? Before she even stood up, countless mobile phones were pointed at her. The constantly flashing cameras made her squint her eyes. She could hear the noisy voices of students, mixed with countless maliciousness. The ridicule brought from the Internet to reality was like a blunt knife sharpening her heart:

"That's right, show us how to act! You are a big star~ We are students, and we have never seen a big scene, so we naturally have to learn from your acting skills~"

"Haha, I hope you can teach us how to walk the red carpet without being nervous, especially when you are wearing the same clothes as others."

"Also, I want to learn how to ride on the popularity. This is Sister Wan Ning's forte. Your name was on the hot search today!"

“…”

Countless voices engulfed her like a tide, and Xiang Wanning was trapped in it, as if she was a small boat sailing on the sea, as if a wave could drown her.

But these malices are still young.

Since she was thrown into this world, she has heard countless vicious voices since she was a child, and has suffered whipping and oppression that ordinary people cannot endure. To her, these are at most painless wind blowing in her ears, causing resistance in her heart, but cannot cause her any substantial harm.

Xiang Wanning suddenly stood up.

The noise and ridicule around them stopped instantly, and they heard Xiang Wanning covering her mouth and laughing: "Want to be me? You are not qualified yet."

She walked up to the podium, and the short distance was like a catwalk show. Xiang Wanning stood on the podium, scanning the surroundings. The person who had just been scolding her suddenly shrank back as if burned when she saw him, hiding in the corner without saying a word.

"You only dare to hide behind others and say bad things about me. Your voices are drowned out by the waves of people condemning me. You dare not raise other questions and just follow what others say. And you still want me to teach you? Are you worthy?"

"You said you wanted me to teach you how to not be nervous when walking on the red carpet—" Xiang Wanning walked to the student who had just spoken to her and patted the table.

The student who just shouted "It's embarrassing to wear the same clothes as others" now blushed, buried his head in his chest, and said nothing.

"Look at you, you don't even dare to look up at me. You will never be able to walk on a red carpet in your life! Just buy some red carpets online and lay them at home, and step on them from time to time."

"And you." Xiang Wanning patted the student next to her and said, "You want to learn from me to gain popularity, but you scold me so harshly. You must know me very well. Haven't I already taught you?"

"Rub it like this, I dare you, do you dare?"

Several people were speechless after hearing what she said. At this moment, another voice rang out: "Is this right? We just want to film the movie well!"

"You are a member of the Xiang family. No matter how badly you do things in the entertainment industry, there will always be someone to clean up your mess. Of course you are not afraid of anything! If you were not Xiang Wanning, but Meng Wanning or Zhu Wanning... could you still survive in the entertainment industry? Can you still teach us a lesson here in this manner?"

Xiang Wanning raised her eyes and saw this ridiculous idealist looking at her with righteous indignation. She said everything she was thinking in one breath and accepted the thumbs-up and praise from her companions with a beaming face.

"Why not? I've only been recognized as a member of the Xiang family for a few weeks, but I've been in the entertainment industry for five years. Where was the Xiang family at that time? Or do you think that I, who didn't even finish high school, should be like you, living a life of seclusion and starvation to support myself?"

[No matter whether the direction of my efforts is right or not, after all, I am a villain, and everything I do is wrong]

[But the Xiang family has given me nothing. Why should my efforts be attributed to my protection by the Xiang family?]

Xiang Wanning was too lazy to talk to them any more. Any shame she had felt after being named disappeared into thin air.

Let her laugh, it won't hurt her.

Xiang Wan Ning thought about this and nodded to the professor, "What do you need me to act?"

——

"Are you looking for actors for your new play? Which actor are you short of?"

The principal received Yu Quezhou who was about to come to the school for an audition. Thinking of the script he had read in advance, he couldn't help but brag: "This is your first time directing a campus film, right? The script of Tomorrow's Day is so well written! I can imagine how many awards it will win after you make it... Have the leading female roles been decided? Do we need to select them on campus?"

After flattering him for so long just for the last sentence, Yu Quezhou naturally understood the hint in the principal's words. He raised a smile and said, "The female role is confirmed. If possible, I also hope to confirm all other roles within the school."

The script of "Tomorrow's Time" tells the story of how the poor female student overcomes numerous difficulties, studies hard, and finally makes a splash in the college entrance examination and goes to the university of her dreams.

The heroine has the most arc, and the principal has already predicted that whoever plays the leading female role will become a big hit, but unfortunately, after hearing Yu Quezhou's second half of the sentence, his eyes lit up and he immediately perked up: "Okay, then I'll ask the teachers to ask the students to come to the stadium for auditions."

Even if the leading female role is gone, other roles are also important. If their school can contract all the roles except the leading female role, how proud would it be to tell others about it?

Besides, Yu Quezhou is not short of money. Once you join his crew, there will be no such people as extras, resource guys, or editing guys. Just focus on filming and don't worry about anything else.

"By the way, I wonder if I can ask you now, who did you choose as the female lead?"

Seeing that the principal was still trying to win her overtly and covertly, Yu Quezhou was too lazy to hide it from him. He would know it after the filming started anyway, so he said, "Xiang Wanning."

"Oh, it's her... What did you say? Xiang Wanning?" The principal had just decided in his mind that no matter whose name he heard, he should act as if he knew the other person very well, but he never expected that the name "Xiang Wanning" would pop out of Yu Quezhou's mouth.

This...he does understand the other party.

It can be said that everyone in the entertainment industry knows Xiang Wanning. Thinking of her immature acting skills and her notorious past, they were puzzled by Que Zhou's choice. The principal couldn't help but persuade her: "I think she may not be suitable for this role." He said: "Why not change someone? I have a suitable one in my school..."

Yu Quezhou's smile did not fade, but he asked back: "Are you questioning my decision?"

When the principal heard this, he suddenly came to his senses. This man is not just a director! He is also the director of Zhouyou Entertainment Company! Even though he let the CEO take care of his company because he was too lazy to take care of the affairs, the real decision maker of Zhouyou Entertainment Company is undoubtedly Yu Quezhou!

He had cold sweat on his back, thinking that he was too bold. He even forgot that what Yu Quezhou hated most was someone telling him what to do, and he even dared to question Yu Quezhou's selection criteria!

Thinking of his lover's pitiful expression before he came, the principal cursed himself in his heart, and no extra thoughts were left. Thinking of Xiang Wanning being sent here by her agent to study, he changed the subject and said, "Do you want to go see Xiang Wanning? She should be in class now."

Yu Quezhou was indeed in the mood.

Led by the principal, he approached the classroom where Xiang Wanmeng was taking a class. He just happened to hear the professor asking her to go up and perform outside the door, followed by the other party's voice of despair: [What you fear is bound to come true]

Yu Quezhou found it funny in his heart. He looked up at the scene inside through the window at the back. He witnessed the entire argument that just happened, and of course he did not miss the two voices from Xiang Wanning:

[No matter whether the direction of my efforts is right or not, after all, I am a villain, and everything I do is wrong]

[But the Xiang family has given me nothing. Why should my efforts be attributed to my protection by the Xiang family?]

It sounded like she wasn't too happy.

His heart moved.

Then, Yu Quezhou saw her walk up to the professor and ask him what she should perform. After the professor asked her to perform cooking without any objects, Xiang Wanning frowned and said, "I don't know how."

Professor: "I asked you to act, but I didn't ask you to really get fired. Do you think you are that important?"

Xiang Wanning said confidently: "Of course this is very important. I am an actor who loves feelings. I have never cooked before, so how do I know how to cook?"

The professor blew his beard and glared: "So I asked you to act! If a TV show asks you to jump off a building, would you really jump off a building?"

There was no other way, Xiang Wanning had to bite the bullet and frown, and began to "cook" with difficulty under everyone's gaze, accompanied by the professor's reminders and Xiang Wanning's rebuttals from time to time.

“You cook with two hands?”

"Shouldn't we sprinkle some seasoning on it?"

"Lower your left hand, you are holding the pot!"

"The pot is too hot. Let me blow on it."

Yu Quezhou: ...

This scene will be unforgettable for the rest of my life.

He knocked on the door and pushed it open. When everyone's eyes fell on him, he nodded and apologized to the professor: "Sorry, I have something to do here. I need to find Xiang Wanning."

Xiang Wan Ning obviously didn't expect to be here, because her inner voice was exclaiming: [Why is it Yu Quezhou again? ! ]

「Forget it, forget it. But no matter who it is, I don’t want to stay here.」

Xiang Wanning's eyes sparkled, but she resisted the urge to dance there and walked out of the classroom.

The principal had already left before Yu Quezhou knocked on the door, so Xiang Wanning walked with him for a while. Seeing that there was no one around, she couldn't help but ask in confusion: "What do you want to see me for?"

Yu Quezhou thought: It’s nothing, I just can’t stand watching you acting anymore.

But he thought of the time in the hospital, so he said, "I came to A Movie for an audition, and I just happened to hear that you were studying here."

Xiang Wan Ning snorted and muttered, "It's not that I wanted to come here."

"It just so happens that I promised to treat you to a meal before. Now that we've met, I'll fulfill my promise now."

Xiang Wan Ning was stunned. What else could she eat when A-cinema invited her to dinner? She couldn't help but think: [This person is so mean]

[He actually treated me to a meal at the cafeteria of an adult film company! ]

Yu Quezhou, who originally wanted to say "Choose what you want to eat": ...

He heard Xiang Wanning say in her heart, "No, I have to give him a beating," and immediately smiled and interrupted the conversation, saying, "Since you're here, it would be a shame if you don't come to eat at A-Movie's cafeteria. I'll treat you to a meal at the cafeteria."

Xiang Wanning: ...

She has been eating there for a week! Who wants to eat in the cafeteria? If you want to eat, don’t drag her along!
