Chapter 29: Has your relationship with Chen Yanli broken down?
Yu Quezhou brought Xiang Wanning, who seemed to have lost all hope in life, to the cafeteria of A Film Studio. Perhaps it was because her expression was too heavy that Yu Quezhou suddenly had an idea: Is the food in their cafeteria really that bad?
Thinking that he had invested half of his money in this school, Yu Quezhou began to think: If he found the food was really that bad after eating, he would ask the principal to change the dishes in the cafeteria.
His eyes fell on Canteen No. 1, which specializes in Chinese food:
[Eat it, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, I have been looking at the chili fried mooncakes for a week]
[In ancient times, the standard for distributing porridge to disaster relief was that the porridge could not fall down when a chopstick was inserted into it. The porridge here is just like water. When the disaster victims came to A-cinema, they had to cry and say that they did not deserve this.]
[The cauliflower has only stems but no flowers, and tomatoes are stir-fried with sugar. How could you come up with such a dish? Isn't it shameful? 】
Yu Quezhou: ...
Since canteen No. 1 doesn’t work, what about canteen No. 2?
Xiang Wanning followed his gaze and her face looked very ugly, as if someone owed her millions.
[New Orleans chicken pineapple dumplings, what a talent! Aying was really lucky to have picked up these cooks! 】
[Eel jelly and rice mixed with pomegranate. No, are the students in this school really not going to revolt while eating? 】
[Brussels sprouts, I have never eaten such a disgusting vegetable in my life]
[Just eat in this cafeteria, and don't say a word]
Yu Quezhou: ...
He was about to say "Forget it", but before he could say it, Xiang Wanning suddenly came over with a smile, took his arm, and dragged him away forcefully: "Since Brother Quezhou is here, I'll treat you to a meal. After all, I've been in A-Film for so long, I know all the delicious food!"
[A mouthful of sand in the fried rice, such glory is given to him! 】
Is it different from the Sahara Desert? 】
[Haha, I want to see what expression Yu Quezhou will have after he finishes eating, and whether he can still laugh! 】
Yu Quezhou: ...
He looked at Xiang Wanning and felt that the word "fraud" was written all over this man's face. His eyes were rolling around like a cunning fox, setting a trap and waiting for him to jump into it.
For some reason, Yu Quezhou kept turning the words of rejection around in his mouth, and in the end he said the word "OK".
He watched Xiang Wanning immediately jump up and down to get food for him. Ten minutes later, the tables in the cafeteria were filled with different dishes.
"Can you finish this much?"
Hearing Yu Quezhou's voice, Xiang Wanning sat down proudly and said, "It's boring to eat so much. How about this, let's play truth or dare! The loser has to finish the dish in front of him!"
"I make the rules!"
Yu Quezhou: ...
You can tell that she really wants to win.
*
Someone nearby was amazed and secretly took a photo of the scene, then posted it on the campus forum.
[Question] Has the food in the cafeteria tasted better? Why can someone get so many dishes in the cafeteria? Does she really think it tastes good?
There were a lot of people on the forum at noon, and someone replied after a while:
3L: hello? I haven’t eaten in the cafeteria for 500 years. Is the food there edible?
5L: Which warrior dares to do this? The food in the cafeteria is expensive and unpalatable. I have complained about it several times, but the person I complained to replied, "But you are a performance major, so you have to control your weight!" I got so angry that I threw my fists!
8L: I was at the scene. You may not believe it if I tell you, it was Xiang Wanning and Yu Quezhou... Pictures speak louder than words [Pictures]
Everyone clicked on the picture and saw Xiang Wanning placing a plate of fried pineapple and pork in front of Yu Quezhou. The two smiled at each other and the atmosphere seemed to be good.
Students: ...
9L: If the background wasn't in our school cafeteria, I would have suspected that the two were dating. Haha. If there are marketing accounts on Weibo spreading random information, I will be the first to clarify to them that no one can date in the cafeteria of A-movie! No one!
10L: ...Honestly, do both of them want to get rid of each other?
11L: The two of them became enemies on a variety show, right?
13L: Does this mean that the rich are tired of eating delicacies from land and sea and plan to go to the grassroots to investigate the people’s conditions?
15L: No, what are you discussing upstairs? It’s okay for Xiang Wanning, but shouldn’t we scream now that Yu Quezhou actually came to A-movie? !
17L: There are auditions at the gymnasium this afternoon, didn’t you know? Didn’t the teacher inform you? Let's put these aside for now. Can the host show us in real time whether they actually ate it?
The OP replied to 17L: After eating, I secretly sat behind them, but they were all very polite. It felt like I was bitten by a mosquito. The food on the table was just as it was served. To be honest, I have never met such humble people in my life.
After a while, people on the forum saw the picture attached by the poster. In the picture, Xiang Wanning had put aside her usual domineering expression and sincerely picked up food for Yu Quezhou. Yu Quezhou also lost his usual smile and raised the bowl with his hand.
They watched in amazement.
19L: To be honest, you must have been laughing when the host deliberately mispronounced Yu Quezhou’s name at the award ceremony, right?
20L: The drama he filmed was taken down due to malicious complaints from his peers, but he looked relaxed during the interview, right?
21L: I’m a Zhou fan. This is the first time I feel Director Yu is so strange. I want to curse him! Director Yu! Go ahead and start scolding! Show your momentum!
…
People on the forum waited for a long time, but all they got was a photo from the poster - they didn't know why they had almost finished all the food on the table, leaving only some leftovers.
They didn't wait for the other party to turn hostile towards Wan Ning, but during the audition in the afternoon, they saw Yu Quezhou, who had a cold face throughout the audience and criticized the auditioners harshly.
The principal smiled and smiled along, and in the end he found out that none of the students from his school got a role in "Tomorrow's Day".
headmaster:……
I can't laugh anymore.
Since that day, Xiang Wanning was busy shooting commercials, and her study plan at A Film Studio was naturally interrupted. Until the filming of "Remembering Linglong" started, she boarded a plane to Hengdian arranged by her agent. From time to time, she would still think of her previous move of killing one thousand enemies but injuring eight hundred of her own. When she thought of the taste, she felt dizzy and a feeling of nausea rose in her throat.
But it was not without gain.
Before the plane took off, she logged into the game "God of War" which she had uninstalled many times, and received a super luxurious gift package in her mailbox: all the costumes and weapons of the season!
"The plane is about to take off. All passengers please fasten your seat belts and turn off your cell phones."
After hearing this voice, Xiang Wanning suddenly saw a prompt in the upper right corner of the game before turning off the computer:
There are still 350 days left until the "Creator God" National League!
——
At the launch ceremony of "Remembering Linglong", everyone was required to burn incense and worship Buddha in order to pray that the drama would become a big hit.
There were many reporters at the scene. They set up their cameras in the middle of the venue and surrounded the actors. The questions they asked were like machine gun fire sweeping the scene, and all they could hear were crackling sounds.
"Ms. Liu, your role is the third female role. Do you feel that you are underestimated?"
"Hello An Yu, I'm a reporter from Sakura Platform. I want to ask you, since Xiang Wan Ning, who used to be in the same company as you, is now the second female lead, do you think the world is a little unfair?"
"Hello, Mu Yuli, you seem to have never played the leading male role in a TV series. Do you think you can handle it? Why did you take this drama? Is it because of Xiang Zhinian? Did you really like her on the variety show before? You know she has a fiancé, right..."
“…”
Xiang Wanning hid in the dressing room and listened at the window for a long time. She couldn't help but take a deep breath in her heart:
[Oh my god, they really dare to ask. These reporters are like jackals and tigers staring at meat. I don’t even dare to go out! 】
Her makeup is now done. Xiang Wanning sat on the chair, planning to wait until the main group gathered and then go out later.
It's better to be among the crowd than to be alone and questioned by a group of reporters.
She looked at herself in the mirror: she was wearing a gorgeous palace dress, with a jade hairpin in her hair and a flower ornament on her forehead, which made her look extremely gorgeous.
"Remembering Linglong" is a drama marked as a female-centered drama. It mainly tells the story of: the heroine Linglong was originally a princess of the Zhou Kingdom in the previous dynasty, but was betrayed by her husband on her wedding night. He stole her palace card and sneaked into the palace, and joined forces with others to overthrow the Zhou Kingdom.
Linglong was rescued by her maid and exchanged identities with her. She then endured humiliation and entered the Wei Palace, intending to revive the Zhou Kingdom. However, she unexpectedly fell in love with the straightforward male protagonist, the third prince of Wei, who was also her former husband. He also has inexplicable feelings for his childhood sweetheart, now the Imperial Master of Wei.
In the end, Linglong saw that the world was stable and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and she could not bear to start another war and make the people homeless.
She gave up revenge, but couldn't bear to kill the male protagonist, so she jumped off the city wall in front of him and the second male lead.
The script describes this scene like this: Linglong was buried in the earth and in their hearts like a fallen butterfly.
The usually aloof Imperial Master's eyes turned red. He ran over like crazy, picked up Linglong's body, and wanted to take her away.
The male protagonist stopped him, his eyes cold: "You can't take her away!"
"What qualifications do you have to stop me? If it weren't for you, if it weren't for you, Linglong wouldn't have jumped off the city wall!" The Imperial Master said angrily, "In this world, I am the only one who is qualified to take her away. I can give up everything for her, including my current power, status, and wealth. But what about you? The honorable Third Prince, the future crown prince, and... the culprit who destroyed the Zhou Kingdom!"
The male protagonist's eyes turned red, and he stopped trying to stop him. He just silently watched his back as he left with Linglong in his arms. He knelt on the ground in despair, coughing up blood.
Xiang Wanning: ...
What an outrageous plot.
Why do dramas starring female protagonists have to involve romance? We all want revenge, can we really fall in love with our enemies? 】
[He is willing to marry you in order to destroy the Zhou Kingdom. This has already proved that love is not as important as his power. How could he possibly fall in love with you in the end? 】
[What does it mean to be so cruel? Do you have to use your own death to make the other person regret it? If you ask me, wouldn’t it be better to just overthrow the Wei Dynasty and ascend the throne to become the empress? Kill them all, and after you ascend the throne, you will have a harem of male favorites, and then shed a few tears every night thinking of your former lover, that's enough! 】
Xiang Wanning complained for a long time and finally felt better. After all, what she said didn't count, because she played the hero's sister, Princess Liyang of Wei State in the drama.
——In the end, the second female lead became besties with the heroine, was moved by her, saved her from a fire, and then died in the fire herself.
It’s so miserable.
But fortunately, she only played the first half, the side of Princess Liyang who was arrogant and made things difficult for the heroine many times. This first half was her forte!
Bang bang.
Someone knocked on the door: "Teacher Wan Ning, are you okay? It's time to go out and burn incense and tell fortunes."
"Coming, coming." Xiang Wanning responded, opened the door and walked out. A group of extras followed her and rushed directly through the circle of reporters.
She saw the leading actors being surrounded by reporters and being asked the last few questions, and she couldn't help but feel proud of her own wisdom. She prepared to wait aside until they had finished being questioned before going over.
Xiang Zhinian had just finished answering the reporter's questions when he looked up and saw Xiang Wanning.
Whenever he saw her, Xiang Zhinian always remembered her identity as a tasker. He felt a little dazed, with indescribable complex emotions brewing in his heart.
Even if he decided to treat her as an ordinary person, and even cooperate with her to complete the task, and treat Xiang Wanning as his task target...but Xiang Zhinian had to admit that his eyes would still fall on her involuntarily, and he began to speculate on her thoughts and ideas, and habitually worried about whether she had encountered any difficulties.
no.
He forced himself to look away from Chinen, and the reporter in front of him noticed something unusual. Seeing Xiang Zhinian come to his senses, she handed the microphone back to him again. She wanted to ask her and Xiang Wanning the same question, but she felt that this question was not very original.
The reporter suddenly found another way and asked, "Everyone knows that the Xiang family and the Shen family had already made an engagement when they were young. You and Shen Yanli have a harmonious relationship. How long do you plan to hold the wedding?"
Xiang Zhinian frowned subconsciously. She looked at the work ID hanging on the reporter. At this moment, the wind blew and the side with her name on it turned up.
Mu Qinghe.
After noting this person to Chinen, the official replied: "For now, we will focus on work and do not have such a plan for the time being."
A reporter nearby secretly poked Mu Qinghe and signaled her with his eyes not to ask this sensitive question again. Which of these two families could they afford to offend?
But Mu Qinghe gritted his teeth and still wanted to give it a try. He said with a firm look in his eyes: "But Chen Yanli always came to the scene when your drama started filming before. Why didn't he come this time? Has your relationship broken down?"
This sentence was so powerful that it instantly froze the atmosphere on the scene.
The other reporters looked at Mu Qinghe with admiration and instantly pointed their cameras at Xiang Zhinian, determined to record her every expression!
If their relationship really broke down, that would be big news!
Think about it, the marriage between Xiang Group and Shen Group can be described as a strong alliance. If the relationship breaks down, will the next business map have to be replanned? !
Thinking about the traffic and popularity, reporters from all walks of life were extremely excited and stared at Xiang Zhinian without blinking.
