Chapter 50
Rong Rong sat leisurely in the chair, waiting for someone to call her.
Of course, she didn't really want to use connections to kick Yu Qiu out. On one hand, she had no one to turn to. She had changed her SIM card when she entered the manor and hadn't contacted the Rong family or Shang Feng since, for fear of being found. She couldn't turn to Qiu Xing either. As for Teacher Zhao Qin, how could she make such an unreasonable request?
On the other hand, she doesn't really have a grudge against Yu Qiu, so why should she do anything extra outside of her mission?
Although she plays a villainous supporting character, she's not truly vicious. Of course, it's not unacceptable for her to be a little vicious when necessary.
Rong Rong huffed arrogantly, her little face both cute and fierce. Little did people know that in her innocent world, so-called malice was just a tickle.
After most of the people at the scene had left, it was finally Rongrong's turn to go into the room for her interview.
Lin Zeyang sat up straight instantly inside the room, his eyes sparkling with energy.
Knowing Lin Zeyang's intentions long ago, Li Gu remained silent. It was obvious that Lin Zeyang had a grudge against this newcomer, so he was even less likely to recruit him into the team. As for the person being played by Lin Zeyang? As long as it wasn't too outrageous, he would turn a blind eye.
Moreover, he was already quite annoyed. After half a day, he hadn't found a suitable actor. There was only one newcomer who seemed barely acceptable. The actor's name seemed to be Yu Qiu. He needed to do more research on him.
Li Gu was lost in thought and didn't notice anyone coming in until he heard a sneer. He suddenly snapped back to reality, and the next second his brows furrowed and his face darkened.
They were surprised to see a woman standing in front of them, complete with a mask and hat.
He hasn't even debuted yet, but he already has a lot of equipment; he'll probably be someone who likes to put on airs in the future.
"Oh, which big star is this?" Boss Zhang said sarcastically. Having been asked to help by Lin Zeyang, he naturally knew that Lin Zeyang disliked this person. In order to curry favor with him, he would definitely help to embarrass the person.
Rong Rong looked at the row of judges in front of her with a puzzled expression. Even a novice like her could sense that everyone was hostile towards her. It seemed that her interview was likely to fail.
She should have realized it sooner; the original owner of this body was ridiculed and left in disgrace, wasn't she?
"Don't just stand there, try out the tenth scene," Li Gu urged coldly.
Rong Rong obediently removed her hat and mask.
The tenth scene is a kissing scene. At that time, Nongying was already the man Shenhe's woman. When Shenhe was about to leave Haishi for the battlefield, the two kissed goodbye with reluctance late at night.
This scene is neither the most difficult in Nongying's scenes, nor the one that best reflects Nongying's personality. Rongrong doesn't know why Li Gu chose this scene.
Moreover, it must have been so awkward for her to perform a solo act, like kissing, in front of so many judges in public.
Rong Rong was extremely embarrassed. Having always lived in an ivory tower and rarely going out, she was already a socially awkward person. This was her first job interview, which made her feel uneasy and a little nervous.
After she had mentally prepared herself, she realized that the room seemed unusually quiet.
Suddenly looking up, she saw that the judges in front of her were all staring straight at her, some with dazed expressions, some with blank looks, and some with empty eyes as if they had lost their souls...
"I'm ready," Rong Rong reminded her, then walked to the center, took a deep breath, and prepared to perform.
"Yes, yes! Director Li said I should act opposite you, I'll do it! I'll do it!" President Zhang suddenly stood up, his big belly protruding, and walked towards Rong Rong. There seemed to be suspicious drool hanging from the corner of his mouth, making him look no different from Zhu Bajie.
Rong Rong was startled and unconsciously stepped back. President Zhang's smile widened, and it was clear that some liquid was about to drip down his chin.
If Mr. Zhang had agreed to help Lin Zeyang out of personal favor, he was now extremely grateful to Lin Zeyang for giving him this opportunity. Just talking to such a beauty would be enough for him to boast about for a long time, let alone getting close to her.
Mr. Zhang was so excited he almost fainted. Just as he couldn't help but reach out to put his hand on Rong Rong's shoulder, a strong force suddenly pulled him backward, causing him to stumble and almost fall.
"Let me do it. It'll be a good opportunity for Director Li to see if Miss Rong and I have any chemistry."
Lin Zeyang's unique, magnetic voice, with its youthful quality, rang out in the room.
Mr. Zhang glared angrily at Lin Zeyang's back as he stood in front of him, his eyes clearly conveying the message: "Have you no shame?"
However, Lin Zeyang did not pay any attention to President Zhang's reaction. He only lowered his head slightly, looking deeply at Rong Rong with a glint in his eyes.
He never imagined that the arrogant and domineering young lady who loved smoky makeup would be so stunningly beautiful after washing off her makeup.
It's breathtakingly beautiful, so beautiful it takes your breath away.
Looking back on that period of being kept, it seems as if a layer of dark mist is slowly dissipating, revealing the dazzling light beneath.
Rong Rong also looked at the man in front of her carefully. He looked somewhat familiar, but she searched through the original owner's memories and could not find any trace of him.
The man is nearly 1.9 meters tall, tall and sunny, with outstanding appearance. He is handsome in a refined and delicate way without being effeminate, and has a unique charm that lies between a mature man and a youthful boy.
For some reason, he has an instant appeal, like the school heartthrob that girls used to have a crush on, or the bad boy with a heroic spirit, bursting with a sense of justice but disguised with a wicked smile.
Complex yet harmonious, it possesses a unique and profound attraction.
The scene of the two gazing into each other's eyes resembled the most beautiful and romantic youth idol drama, and for a moment no one dared to disturb them.
Until Li Gu excitedly shouted, "Let's try the second scene! The second scene!"
"Quick! Props teacher, bring the props!"
The second scene is where Nongying's performance amazes everyone and leaves a deep impression on Shenhe. It is also Nongying's most important scene.
The character's personality is entirely revealed through this scene.
In other words, whether Rong Rong can capture the feeling Li Gu wants depends on this scene.
Rong Rong's brows relaxed, feeling that it was a good thing the director had been changed.
Lin Zeyang turned his head to look at Li Gu, his usually amorous eyes now filled with darkness and death.
Li Gu's throat tightened, his excitement fixed on his face. He swallowed hard and added in a low voice, "Let's perform the tenth show first."
This was the first time Li Gu had ever been so cowardly, simply because Lin Zeyang had seemed to exude a murderous aura.
In the presence of such a beautiful woman, the two men were left with only their masculine instincts, forgetting the advantages that came with their status, position, and abilities.
But Li Gu quickly realized that as a director, he was stunned by his own actors. His eyebrows shot up as he was about to get angry, but Lin Zeyang ignored him and continued acting.
"I don't know when we'll meet again after this parting. I'm sorry, I've let you down." Lin Zeyang was deeply moved and instantly got into character.
The powerful emotional impact even drew the somewhat dazed Rong Rong into the play.
Her eyelashes trembled slightly, her eyes filled with confusion and sadness. In fact, Rong Rong was just confused by Lin Zeyang's actions, but her appearance was exactly the same as Nongying at that time.
Nongying didn't understand national hatred or family feuds, or the greater good of the people. All she knew was that her lover, who promised to love and protect her for a lifetime, was about to leave her.
Nongying is herself, but also the embodiment of countless women forced to separate from their lovers, and the epitome of the sudden shattering of happy families in that era.
"Ahe." Rong Rong murmured unconsciously. At this moment, it was as if a thread was pulling her. She was Nongying. She didn't know why her Ahe had to leave. She only knew that her heart was filled with pain.
Panic, fear, as if the sky had fallen.
