Chapter 134 My Ideal Heroine
Li Beiting also quickly left the place and returned to the box.
At this moment, a junior student came over enthusiastically and wanted to toast with Jiang Yao.
"Senior Jiang, I want to toast you too. You are my goddess, and I have come this far by following in your footsteps—"
Faced with such enthusiastic attitude, Jiang Yao couldn't refuse.
She picked up the wine glass and was about to drink it.
His broad hand reached out and took the wine glass from her hand very smoothly. "She's a little drunk tonight, I'll drink it for her."
After saying that, Li Beiting stood in front of Jiang Yao, put his thin lips to the rim of the cup, and drank the wine in one gulp.
The whole audience was stunned.
Jiang Yao also realized after a moment of stunnedness that it was her wine glass.
The rim of the cup he drank from was the same place she had just drunk from...
Thinking of the previous kiss, a heat surged into my brain again, and my head was about to smoke.
Amid the gossiping gazes of the crowd, Li Beiting calmly put down his wine glass and looked at Jiang Yao beside him with a natural expression: "Didn't you say you had something else to do? Do you want me to take you home?"
Jiang Yao's head was hot, but he pretended to be calm: "...No need, I drove here and called a designated driver. I'll go back first."
After saying that, she turned and left quickly.
This time, Li Beiting did not pursue him relentlessly.
Everything in moderation.
Next, he has plenty of opportunities to perform well.
On the way back, Jiang Yao leaned his head on the seat, recalling Li Beiting's explanation and confession tonight, and the corners of his lips unconsciously rose.
It turned out to be a misunderstanding.
Yes, she should understand Li Beiting's character.
I don't know how I was misled at that time.
Is it because I really have different feelings for him that it affects my rationality?
This is not a good sign!
Jiang Yao shook his head, trying to wake himself up. He couldn't let his thoughts run wild anymore. It was better to let things take their natural course!
Love is not a fast food, but a long-lasting one.
Just then, a phone call came in.
"Yaya? What's wrong?"
"Baby, do you have time to come out for a drink with me?" Shu Ya's tone sounded very depressed, even more serious than the last time she shouted "Help".
Jiang Yao realized that she was in a really bad mood, so he asked the driver to turn the car around and go find Shu Ya.
When she arrived, Shu Ya was already drunk and dazed, still cursing, "You bastard! You think you're so great just because you're famous..."
"Who are you talking about?" Jiang Yao felt that this time it didn't seem to be a relationship issue.
"Woo woo, Yaoyao——" Shu Ya heard the sound and rushed over to hug her, "You are finally here."
Jiang Yao patted her back gently and coaxed her in a gentle voice, "Alright, alright, tell me who bullied our great star Shu."
Shu Ya laughed at herself and said, "What big star? You know how famous I am in the entertainment industry. I have more haters than fans. Even those entertainment reporters are constantly exposing my negative information."
"I've gotten to this point where I've even lost a script to a really big-name actress, and all I can do is drown my sorrows in alcohol. It's truly a struggle in both my love life and my career."
The more Shu Ya spoke, the more miserable she felt.
It’s okay to sleep with her man, but it’s not okay to cut off her source of income.
Jiang Yao finally understood after hearing this, "You mean, someone stole your role? Is this still okay?"
"Why not? As long as the other party is famous and has traffic, the director can always replace them even if they have signed a contract. What's more, my role hasn't been signed yet-"
Jiang Yao quickly consoled her, "This only proves that the director has no credibility and no vision. Our Yaya's acting is so good, there must be someone who recognizes your talent and chooses you."
Shu Ya finally felt better and couldn't help but reveal her true feelings to Jiang Yao, "Yaoyao, to be honest, if it was just a role being taken away from me, I wouldn't be so angry. It's just that I really like the script this time.
You know, in this industry, bad dramas are often produced because the scripts are not solid, which I think is quite regrettable."
Jiang Yao understood: "I know you really love acting, that's why you chose this path."
Otherwise, with Shuya's family conditions, she could have taken an easier path.
The two best friends chatted about personal matters for a long time before Jiang Yao sent her home safely.
When she came back, she checked her phone and found several messages from her second uncle Jiang Jingzhou half an hour ago.
[Yaoyao, I'm planning to direct a new film about aviation. You're quite professional in this area, could you give me some advice?]
The attachments below contain information about the script and character settings.
Jiang Yao raised his eyebrows in surprise, clicked it and began to read it carefully.
I don’t know how long it took, but the car stopped in front of the villa.
"Miss, we're home."
Jiang Yao finally came back to his senses from the script and hurriedly got out of the car and went into the house.
When she went upstairs to her room, an idea suddenly flashed through her mind. She pursed her lips slightly and immediately replied to Jiang Jingzhou.
[Second uncle, I've read your script and character design. Setting aside the script for now, I have a very suitable candidate for the female lead role that I'd like to recommend to you. It's my best friend Shu Ya, whom I mentioned to you before.]
The first thing she thought of after seeing the heroine's character and the plot was Shu Ya, who was a perfect match in both image and temperament.
It's like giving you a pillow when you're sleepy.
Shu Ya's role had just been snatched away, and it was a window period, so the timing was right.
Jiang Jingzhou replied quickly: "I looked up the basic information of the actress you mentioned. She's a good match physically, but I don't know her well enough, especially regarding her acting skills. I'll need to meet her in person before deciding. I'll come over tonight and we'll discuss it later."
When it comes to his professional side, he has gotten rid of his previous nonchalant attitude and appears to be extremely dedicated.
It was already eleven o'clock in the evening when Jiang Jingzhou arrived here.
It just so happened that Fourth Uncle Jiang Jinghe had just returned from outside and saw Jiang Jingzhou coming over. He immediately narrowed his eyes and asked, "Why are you here?"
"What's it got to do with you? I'm here to talk to my precious niece about something important. Yaoyao, do you miss your second uncle? Come, give me a hug!"
Jiang Yao had long been accustomed to his eccentricity and pushed him away. "Second uncle, don't we want to talk about business?"
Jiang Jingzhou then put aside his joking thoughts, pulled up a chair and sat down, putting on a professional conversation posture.
"Okay, tell me why Shuya is suitable for this role. If it's just because she's your best friend, I don't agree."
Although Jiang Jinghe was a little surprised by his second brother's arrival, he didn't think much about it and was planning to go upstairs.
However, when he heard the name "Shu Ya", his expression changed slightly, and it felt like nails were stuck under his feet, and he couldn't walk.
Jiang Yao didn't have time to pay attention to his fourth uncle's situation, but began to explain seriously to Jiang Jingzhou.
"Second Uncle, I'm not a sentimental person. I recommend Yaya to you for three reasons. The first is that Shuya's appearance, height, and temperament perfectly match the image of the stewardess in your script.
The second point is the character’s personality and growth experience…”
Jiang Yao analyzed from a professional perspective and explained Shu Ya's compatibility with the role.
Jiang Jingzhou listened carefully.
After a while, she concluded and asked, "Second Uncle, what do you think? Is Yaya the only one who can play this role?"
Just as Jiang Jingzhou was about to speak, another gentle voice spoke first.
"I don't think she's suitable. First of all, her fame isn't enough to match the reputation of the second brother's genius director. Just because she has the right looks and temperament doesn't mean she's qualified for the role. And I don't think she has the acting skills to play such a complex and profound role."
