"Me? Sir/Madam, are you talking about me? You've invited me to play a role? But I have no acting experience whatsoever, is it okay for me?"
Tong Su's eyes widened in excitement.
Madam Zhang smiled and said, "Of course."
So what if Xi Tongsu is a complete newcomer?
She could tailor-make the storyline for Xi Tongsu, as long as Xi Tongsu plays herself.
Moreover, Mrs. Zhang also trusted her husband.
For Director Zhang, an Oscar winner and renowned director, guiding a newcomer in practicing acting skills is not a difficult task.
Madam Zhang proudly thought that she wanted to promote Xi Tongsu, liked her, and wanted to use her. Could anyone say no?
Lan Shu'er's scheming against herself and Xi Tongsu is most likely due to jealousy of how much she values Xi Tongsu.
Fine, since Lan Shu'er is trying every means to prevent Xi Tongsu from joining the crew, she's going to write Xi Tongsu's scenes to be much more numerous than Lan Shu'er's.
Lan Shuer has been jumping around for so long, but in the end, she can only be a supporting character who serves as a stepping stone for Xi Tongsu!
"That's great! Of course! Of course I'm interested! I'm very willing, no, I'm 100% or 100% willing!"
Tongsu excitedly spun around several times with her hands raised, her face full of curiosity and eager excitement.
Her round, almond-shaped eyes shone with a clear, joyful light, her heart pounded wildly, and even the blood in her body seemed to erupt like a volcano.
"I'm so happy, so excited! I can get into the film crew—wow, I can act in my favorite big-name script, even if it's just a minor role like a corpse!"
Seeing her so excited, Director Zhang and his wife couldn't help but laugh.
"Sit down quickly. Don't worry, why would we let you play a minor role? There's a role in the script that's perfect for you, with a significant amount of screen time. You're the one who should play yourself."
While Lan Shu'er was putting on makeup, she felt uneasy. She didn't know where this unease came from; it was just a vague sense of restlessness filling her heart.
Can Ji Yu persuade Director Zhang to give him more screen time for his character?
It's all Xi Tongsu's fault!
I'm her good friend, why doesn't she invest money in the production team and get more screen time for me?
Xi Tongsu is so petty; she doesn't treat me like a friend at all.
She was just giving herself charity; she wasn't sincere at all!
Why is it that she was born into such a wealthy family and can get everything without having to put in any effort? Why is God so unfair? Why won't He let her taste the bitterness of life too?
Lan Shuer grew increasingly resentful, gritting her teeth in hatred. She looked up at herself in the mirror; the woman in the mirror had a sallow complexion, dark circles under her eyes, and looked somewhat haggard, clearly the result of excessive indulgence.
Just then, the makeup artist lifted the ends of her hair, revealing an ambiguous red mark on her neck.
That damn Ji Yu! She told him not to leave any marks, yet he still left a hickey! Was he doing this on purpose? What was she going to do in front of the film crew?
"laugh……"
The makeup artist couldn't help but let out a soft laugh.
Lan Shuer's expression changed drastically: "Put on your makeup, what are you laughing at!"
The makeup artist curled her lip and said, "I'll do it now."
"What are you dawdling for! Hurry up!" Lan Shu'er said impatiently. "Also, put on some more concealer to cover up that bruise on the back of my neck. Yesterday's pressure was so intense, I was covered in injuries all the time."
As the makeup artist applied concealer to her, she was trying so hard not to laugh that she rolled her eyes. As soon as Lan Shu'er left, she immediately opened her WeChat group for friends and family and started ranting.
"Lan Shu'er thinks nobody knows about her and Ji Yu, how hilarious! Who in the crew doesn't know she was brought in by Ji Yu? She even claims the hickeys are injuries from being suspended by wires, hahaha, wires can reach her neck? She should have been strangled to death long ago!"
Lan Shuer walked out of the dressing room in a huff. Not far away, Ji Yu was going over the script with the female lead.
The female lead in this film is played by a veteran actress. Although she is not a big-name star, she is widely recognized for her excellent acting skills.
She stood in the corner, planning to go find Ji Yu after the female lead finished talking to him and left. Bored, she looked around, and as she looked, Lan Shu'er's pupils suddenly contracted.
My gaze was fixed on the two figures walking out of the film set, and I felt a chill run down my spine!
Those two people look so much like Xi Tongsu and Madam Zhang.
Why is Xi Tongsu here? And why is she with Madam Zhang?!
