Chapter 97 The concubine script will be sent over later.
Yang Yang, who had been acting as an "air person" for half the day, finally had to speak up, albeit tremblingly.
"Professor Luo Jia, are you... serious?... Please don't joke with me."
Luo Jiayin leaned to the side, casually draped her arm over the back of the chair, and looked at Yang Yang with a leisurely air.
Seeing her guilty look, I couldn't help but find it a little funny.
"I thought you were fearless, Nizi, but it turns out you can be a coward too, hahaha."
Yang Yang blushed slightly after Luo Jiayin's words.
"What are you talking about? I'm not fearless at all. I'm scared, very scared—I have social anxiety!"
"Pfft!"
Hearing this, even Yu Jiu, who was just sitting on the sidelines, couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Oh my god, this is wonderful!
So this is called social anxiety?!
Yu Jiu has finally seen the light today.
Seeing Yu Jiu trying her best to cover her mouth again and her shoulders shrugging, Yang Yang felt even more embarrassed.
What's going on...?
Doesn't she look like she has social anxiety?
Luo Jiayin stood up, walked up to Yang Yang, and said with feigned surprise, "Socially anxious? That can't be right."
"When you were imitating Lin Manxi just now, you didn't seem like a socially awkward person at all."
"Ah...yes..." Yang Yang stammered, her brain still racing, trying to come up with an answer.
"That was... to cheer you up a bit, Professor Luo Jia, since you were feeling rather down..."
"Ah, Professor Luo Jia, this is an idol! It's the power of an idol! Yes!"
Yang Yang looked at Luo Jiayin with feigned composure, appearing very sincere.
Luo Jiayin, however, was not fooled and deliberately showed an extremely surprised expression.
"Wow, that's even better!"
"Huh??" Yang Yang stared wide-eyed at Luo Jiayin, completely bewildered.
"Since you can perform so skillfully even under such tension, wow, your imitation of Lin Manxi is absolutely perfect!"
"Doesn't that just prove you're exceptionally talented?"
"Young lady, I see you have extraordinary potential; you're a good candidate for our 'Hold On to the Villain' script' project."
"How about it? Want to join us? I'll take you on, and we'll do something big together!"
As she spoke, Luo Jiayin patted Yang Yang on the shoulder in a serious manner to show her high regard for him.
Yang Yang felt speechless and questioned the heavens...
"Hehe...no...that's not it..."
Yang Yang looked miserable.
Luo Jiayin didn't care about any of that "cherishing beauty" stuff at this moment.
She walked up to Director Xu with a smile and said, "Director Xu, Yang Yang said she will definitely work hard, so is this matter settled then?"
As she spoke, Luo Jiayin stretched out a hand.
Director Xu also cooperated by shaking hands with Luo Jiayin to "reach a consensus".
The two hit it off immediately, and the atmosphere and their mood were incredibly happy.
Yang Yang's mouth dropped open, and it took her a while to realize that Director Xu's words seemed to mean that he agreed with Teacher Luo Jia's suggestion!
She quickly waved her hands at the two of them, saying, "I...no..."
"You weren't prepared, were you?" Yang Yang had just opened her mouth to say two words when Director Xu choked her back.
"It's alright, Xiao Yang. I'll have Xiao Du bring you the script for the 'concubine' character played by Lin Manxi later."
"Director Xu, I didn't..." Yang Yang hurriedly waved his hand.
However, Director Xu seemed to have no intention of giving her a chance to speak.
"Yes, I know you're not one to back down. I believe in you. Do your best!"
Director Xu paused for a moment, then added, "But Xiao Yang, you don't need to feel too much pressure or psychological burden. Just keep a calm mind, just keep a calm mind."
Yang Yang: ...
Can I say that I'm under a lot of pressure and have a lot of psychological burden...?
Yang Yang felt like she was about to go crazy; she was absolutely furious.
Teacher Luo Jia, are you really going to sabotage your teammate like this?
Luo Jiayin glanced at Yang Yang's expression, then at Director Xu, and said considerately, "Director Xu, we've finalized the casting. You must have some things to take care of, so Yang Yang and I won't bother you any longer. I'll talk to Yang Yang about the program."
Upon hearing this, Director Xu immediately nodded as if he understood, and gave Luo Jiayin a knowing smile: "Yes, there are indeed many things I need to handle. I'll leave Yang Yang to you, Teacher Luo Jiayin. Thank you for your hard work!"
"As you should, Director Xu."
After saying that, Director Xu strode away from Luo Jiayin's lounge.
...
"Teacher Luo Jiayin, I...I still won't go..." Yang Yang said weakly to Luo Jiayin after Director Xu left.
Upon hearing this, Luo Jiayin raised an eyebrow: "Why?"
"Well, I'm not very good at acting, nor am I good at reasoning, and my brain isn't very sharp... Besides, I've never studied any of these things..." Yang Yang muttered to himself.
"Oh~" Luo Jiayin nodded, "Then I'm relieved."
"Huh?? What do you mean?"
Yang Yang was a little confused about Luo Jiayin's thoughts.
Luo Jiayin said with a smile, "Because you don't need to know everything, otherwise why would Director Xu and I strongly recommend using amateurs?"
"Don't worry, girl. Just think of it as playing a murder mystery game with your friends. Just act normally, and I'll take care of everything else."
"And don't hold back. Just do what you want, play however you want. Don't underestimate your abilities."
Luo Jiayin's words immediately put Yang Yang at ease.
Actually, she didn't expect that Teacher Luo Jia would help her so much. Although she had been used to working hard on her own and taking care of herself since she was a child, she had never felt sorry for herself because of her background.
However, she did not expect that Luo Jia, whom she had only met a few times in a strict sense, would be so kind to her.
Yang Yang was undoubtedly moved.
She thought that Professor Luo Jia was an exceptionally kind person!
Teacher Luo Jia is really, really handsome!
Thinking of the encouragement that Teacher Luo Jia had just given her, Yang Yang felt a warmth in her heart.
"Well... thank you, Teacher Luo Jia. I will definitely work hard!"
Yang Yang bowed to Luo Jiayin, who quickly reached out to help her up.
"Oh, okay, don't thank me anymore, or I'll get angry."
"My face is half-removed, can the makeup artist Yang fix it up for me now?"
Luo Jiayin smiled as she looked at Yang Yang, a hint of amusement flashing in her eyes.
"Oh right, right!" Yang Yang slapped her forehead. "Oh dear, it's my fault, haha. Teacher Luo Jia, please sit down, I'll help you remove your makeup."
Luo Jiayin, Yu Jiu, and Sister Mei exchanged a smile and then sat down again, letting Yang Yang tidy her up.
