Bai Qianmo looked at them: "Surprised?"
Rong Yu straightened his jaw in astonishment and looked at Bai Qianmo seriously: "Qianmo, you need to think carefully about this matter. In the past two years, Xia Wei and I have only managed to do slightly better than extras in the industry. To be honest, this industry needs fame and popularity to drive a drama. It is very difficult for newcomers to break out. What I am worried about is that if we are chosen to play the male and female leads, the audience will not accept it in the end."
Bai Qianmo looked at Xia Wei: "What about you?"
Xia Wei glanced at Rong Yu: "Actually, Rong Yu and I think the same way. Qian Mo, I know you mean well, but we lack acting experience and fame, so it's hard for us to carry a show."
"You have so little confidence in yourself?"
"We were constantly rejected. We didn't know how many people we had to beg for and how many auditions we had to go through to get a role. Our confidence had long been worn down by reality."
Bai Qianmo chuckled softly, toying with the glass in her hand, her gaze fixed on the rising steam: "Even if you lack confidence, you should at least have ambition, right? If someone in this industry doesn't even have ambition, they might as well switch careers while they're young. Maybe they can find their place in another industry."
After speaking, Bai Qianmo gave Rong Yu and Xia Wei a cold glance.
The two remained silent.
She knew what they were worried about. Teng Yue currently had no fame, no works, and no first- or second-tier stars to support him. If he wanted to make a comeback, this drama was crucial.
Therefore, they were afraid of not being able to complete the task, and the pressure they felt was immense.
“Ambition and opportunity go hand in hand. An ambitious person is often more perceptive than the average person and can firmly grasp opportunities. Aren’t you in the entertainment industry just trying to become famous? What’s the use of worrying so much now? You’re already backing out before filming has even started. What will you do if you’re invited to play the male or female lead by a bigger production team in the future? Will you still hesitate like this?”
Rong Yu's lips were pursed, and his brow twitched slightly when Bai Qianmo said those words.
He had been waiting for an opportunity, and now that it was right in front of him, why not seize it?
"Qianmo, I want to act in this drama!" Rong Yu's inner turmoil vanished, and his gaze became exceptionally firm.
Xia Wei, with a look of grim determination, said, "Since you trust us so much, even if it costs me my life, I will definitely play this role well."
Bai Qianmo was very satisfied to see the change in the two people's attitudes.
"Come to the company before nine o'clock tomorrow morning. You need to meet with Director Jiang. He is a very picky person. Although I have you two as the male and female leads in mind, his opinion is very important. So, you need to perform well tomorrow and try to get Director Jiang to finalize your decision on the spot."
"Jiang Hai? I heard he hits women. What if I don't behave well tomorrow? Will he hit me?" Xia Wei asked with some worry.
"Rumors are not to be believed." A person who would risk their life to save a stranger's child can't be all that bad.
Jiang Hai is simply not good at expressing himself, and this kind of personality makes him very easy to be taken advantage of in this industry.
Therefore, his talent can only be truly appreciated by those who admire him.
She hopes that she will be that talent scout.

Research Institute
Du Muchen waited for more than an hour before Gu Jueye finally came out of the laboratory.
I glanced at the time; it was already past 8 p.m.
"Are you busy until this late every day?"
Gu Jueye took off his mask and white coat before finally looking at Du Muchen.
What brings you here?
Du Muchen smiled with narrowed eyes, giving off the impression of a cunning fox.
"I've come to see if you're enjoying your newfound happiness with a beautiful woman by your side."
Gu Jueye picked up the water glass in front of his desk, his tall body leaning against the desk. Perhaps because he had been in the laboratory all day, his handsome face showed a slight weariness, but he gave people a relaxed and lazy feeling.
You wouldn't understand.
"Huh?" Du Muchen was momentarily caught off guard.
What doesn't he understand?
Although he was born two years later than Gu Jueye, he must have accumulated a lot of experience from filming so many idol dramas.
Gu Jueye took a sip of water, his long, deep phoenix eyes lifting slightly: "Single people can't understand this!"
puff……
Du Muchen felt a stabbing pain in his chest, and almost spat out a mouthful of blood three meters away.
This isn't dog abuse, this is dog slaughter!
Du Muchen's gaze suddenly fell on Gu Jueye's wrist, and his eyes lit up instantly, instantly reviving on the spot.
"Was that bracelet on your wrist a gift from Xiao Momo?"
Gu Jueye remained silent, waiting for him to continue.
Du Muchen smiled smugly: "This is a prize that Xiao Momo and I won in a segment of a variety show we recorded a while ago. It's a matching set, and I generously gave it to Xiao Momo. So, this bracelet is mine."
Serves you right for showing off your love! I'll make you sick of it, hmph!
Gu Jueye fiddled with the bracelet, his thin lips twitching slightly as he glanced at Du Muchen with a half-smile.
You should be glad you didn't bring it.
Du Muchen suddenly felt a chill creeping over him.
What do you mean he should be grateful...?
I realized instantly—it was a threat, a blatant threat.
He's so infuriating! He has pride too, you know.
"I don't like this one. I'll definitely bring it to you next time I get a matching couple's item with Xiaomomo."
"Is that so?" Gu Jueye scoffed, glancing at Du Muchen's slender hands.
Watch out for your dog claws!
