Chapter 74 Good Wife and Good Mother
…
Dong Ni’s two favorite idols are Zhu Bing and Yang Xindong.
For the former, Dong Ni really likes the drama she acted in.
As for the latter, Dong Ni really liked the songs she sang.
In addition, Dong Ni also likes Zhu Bing's heroine character and Yang Xindong's non-confrontational character - she likes Zhu Bing's ambition and dominance, and she also likes Yang Xindong's lack of desire.
This also reflects that Dong Ni is a contradictory person - she is ambitious but reserved. She wants to shine but is unwilling to give in to fame and fortune.
When Dong Ni took the entrance exam for the Central Academy of Drama, she was largely influenced by Zhu Bing and Yang Xindong, especially the former.
In fact, Dong Ni was very excited when she saw Zhu Bing last time.
It’s a pity that Dong Ni and Zhu Bing did not have any rival scenes, and Zhu Bing only shot for one day on the set of "Escape" before the filming was completed.
This made Dong Ni deeply regretful as she was unable to take a photo with Zhu Bing.
Who would have thought that when one seems to have reached the end of his rope, there is always a way out. Xu Kai actually introduced Dong Ni to the crew of "The Empress of China" to play the role of Concubine Xiao Shufei.
Concubine Xiao Shufei is Li Zhi's favorite concubine. Like Li Zhi, she is a later character. Their scenes will appear after episode 20.
So Zhu Bing has not yet decided on the actress to play Concubine Xiao Shufei.
Of course, with Zhu Bing's connections and the investment and scale of "The Empress of China", there is definitely no shortage of actors to play Concubine Xiao Shufei.
No, it should be said that the competition for the role of Concubine Xiao Shufei was extremely fierce.
Before this, Dong Ni had only played in the drama "Escape", and she played the third female role with not many parts. The key point is that "Escape" has not been released yet, so Dong Ni can be said to have no fame or traffic at all now.
In short, no matter from which aspect, Dong Ni actually had no hope of getting the role of Concubine Xiao Shufei, even though she was a campus beauty in her freshman year at the Central Academy of Drama.
But the person who helped Dong Ni get the role of Concubine Xiao Shufei was Xu Kai.
Dong Ni had an inexplicable confidence in Xu Kai. She believed that since Xu Kai had promised her, he would definitely do it.
So, Dong Ni went to see Zhu Bing with Xu Kailai without saying a word.
Zhu Bing looked at Dong Ni for a while, then said to Xu Kai with a half-smile: "Favors are like savings. If you use a little, you will have less."
Xu Kai said indifferently: "If you don't use it, do you want to keep it for having children?"
"snort!"
Zhu Bing snorted heavily, and then said to her agent Yang Zhenzhen: "Give Concubine Xiao Shufei's contract and script to this little girl."
"You saved my account." Zhu Bing said to Xu Kai.
"OK."
Yang Zhenzhen found Concubine Xiao Shufei's contract and script and gave them to Dong Ni.
Dong Ni really didn't expect that she would get the role of Concubine Xiao Shufei so easily. It was like a dream.
At the same time, Dong Ni also understood that Xu Kai got this role in exchange for the favor he had done for saving Zhu Bing.
Dong Ni didn't know how important Zhu Bing's favor was.
But Dong Ni knew that Zhu Bing had a strong background and extensive network of contacts, and was a top figure in the entertainment industry.
Dong Ni believed that if Xu Kai used this favor wisely, he would be able to accomplish something great.
But now, Xu Kai used this precious favor to get a role for himself.
This made Dong Ni feel warm and heavy in her heart.
It was precisely because of this complex psychology that Dong Ni was eager to take this hard-earned opportunity immediately, but also did not want Xu Kai to waste this favor.
Seeing Dong Ni hesitant, Xu Kai took the contract and script from Yang Zhenzhen and put them in Dong Ni's hand, then said domineeringly: "My savings are so much that you can't imagine. This little bit is just a drop in the bucket."
"Let's go."
After waving to Zhu Bing, Xu Kai took Dong Ni away.
Not far from Zhu Bing's office, Dong Ni stopped and looked at Xu Kai lovingly: "If I had known that this role would make you waste so much favor, I would not have come."
"I've already said that there are many people who owe me favors, not just Zhu Bing." Xu Kai said with a smile: "Besides, I'm different from some people. I won't do something like letting the horse run without giving it grass to eat."
Dong Ni rolled her eyes. She knew Xu Kai was talking about her not letting him go to third base.
What a coincidence, when Dong Ni raised her eyes, she saw that the bathroom was behind her and Xu Kai.
I don't know where she got the courage from, but Dong Ni pushed Xu Kai into the bathroom and locked the door...
…
As soon as Xu Kai and Dong Ni left, Zhu Bing called Zhang Zhiwei over.
As soon as Zhang Zhiwei entered the room, Zhu Bing couldn't wait to ask, "Who is Dong Shishi? What is her relationship with Yu Qingyun?"
Zhang Zhiwei was stunned: "Why is Sister Bing asking about Dong Shishi?"
Zhang Zhiwei thought, "Could it be that Sister Bing really has fallen in love with Yu Qingyun?"
Zhang Zhiwei shook her head, thinking that she shouldn't guess about such things, and immediately told Zhu Bing everything about the relationship between Xu Kai and Dong Ni and everything she knew about Dong Ni (including Dong Ni and Xu Kai).
Zhu Bing felt a little uncomfortable after hearing from Zhang Zhiwei that Xu Kai and Dong Ni were a couple in "Escape" and that they had even filmed a pretty explosive bed scene.
"Does Yu Qingyun's girlfriend know about Yu Qingyun and Dong Shishi?" Zhu Bing asked.
"I don't know if she knows."
"I feel like she doesn't seem to care about Yu Qingyun's affair at all."
"She's a weird person. She usually hides in Yu Qingyun's RV to cook and study food. She rarely comes out. Well... she will only come out if Yu Qingyun takes her out. Anyway, I have never seen her get out of the car alone."
"Well... I have to say, her food is really delicious, and very personal. It's better than any other chef's food I've ever eaten."
"Have you ever eaten food made by Yu Qingyun's girlfriend?" Zhu Bing asked.
"Yu Qingyun sends a lot of delicious food to people who have a good relationship with him every day. Most of these delicacies are his girlfriend's test products." Zhang Zhiwei licked her lips: "Because of you, Sister Bing, I have a good relationship with Yu Qingyun, so as long as I am in the group, Yu Qingyun will send me three meals a day."
"I've become so picky because of Yu Qingyun and his girlfriend."
"She doesn't fight, compete, or ask questions, and she doesn't go out to socialize. She just studies food every day, like a conservative and good wife and mother." Zhu Bing said, supporting his chin.
"Very much."
"So Yu Qingyun likes this type." Zhu Bing murmured, "I seem to be quite different from this type."
Because Zhu Bing's mumbling was too soft, Zhang Zhiwei didn't quite hear it, so she asked, "Sister Bing, what did you say?"
"nothing."
Zhu Bing then changed the subject: "Have you brought your parents over?"
"I took it."
Zhang Zhiwei added: "Thank you, Sister Bing, for sending the nanny car to pick up my parents for me."
"We are sisters, why are you being polite?"
Zhu Bing leaned on the table and stretched comfortably, then said with a smile: "You did the right thing, Yu Qingyun will definitely be able to cure your father's illness."
"He's very capable!"
