"What a hassle."
Despite his complaints, his actions betrayed his true feelings. He not only helped Qin Wan turn on the water bottle, but also reminded her, "Drink slowly, don't choke."
Upon hearing this, Qin Wan smiled slightly, a hint of pleasure in her eyes.
Behind the two, Song Ze stared intently at the scene before him.
Qin Wan and Jiang Yan are dating?
They broke up just an hour ago. How could Qin Wan get together with Jiang Yan so quickly?
With this in mind, Song Ze understood everything!
He even thought he had cheated on her and felt a little guilty, feeling sorry for Qin Wan. Even after Qin Wan hit him, he didn't call the police to settle the score because of their past relationship.
Unexpectedly, his good intentions were wasted.
That bitch Qin Wan clearly cheated on him a long time ago!
She had clearly been involved with Jiang Yan for a long time, yet she still pretended to be infatuated in front of him, and even had the nerve to tell him that she only loved him.
The more Song Ze thought about it, the angrier he became, and his face grew increasingly grim.
Seeing the resentment in Song Ze's eyes, Chen Qiang frowned slightly, and his impression of Song Ze worsened.
What does he have to resent?
Even if Qin Wan really cheated on Song Ze with Jiang Yingdi, Song Ze and Qin Wan are no better than each other.
What is there to resent about Song Ze? Does he even deserve resentment?
Moreover, he always felt that Jiang Yingdi and Qin Wan didn't have that kind of relationship...
The two appeared intimate, but there was no ambiguous feeling or action between them. Even when Jiang Yingdi helped open the bottle cap, he looked disgusted and impatient, but there was still a hint of doting in his eyes.
Chen Qiang is a shrewd person who has been in the entertainment industry for many years, and Song Ze can't compare to him.
"You broke up with Qin Wan?" Chen Qiang suddenly realized this crucial point.
“…Hmm.” Song Ze nodded with a grim expression.
Chen Qiang's expression also turned sour upon receiving his reply.
"Your injuries...could they also be related to Qin Wan?" Chen Qiang seemed to have thought of something, and his face turned extremely ugly.
"She's the one who hit me!"
"Damn, this woman is such a good faker. After dating her for so long, this is the first time I've known she's such a good fighter. If I had known she had violent tendencies, I would never have been with her in the first place!"
After dating for so long, he had invested a lot of time and energy in Qin Wan, but all he got out of her was kisses and hugs!
"Song Ze, control your emotions," Chen Qiang said, his face grim and his tone unfriendly.
"I don't care what you think or feel about Qin Wan, but I hope you face reality."
"First, open your eyes wide and look carefully at where Qin Wan is sitting now."
"Secondly, take a closer look at who is sitting next to Qin Wan, and carefully observe their attitudes towards her."
"Finally, I'll ask you this: do you still want to work in the entertainment industry?"
"Do you still want to get the role of 'Shangguan Mo,' the second male lead in 'The Legend of Phoenix'?"
"It's almost your turn to audition. I'll give you three minutes to think it over before you tell me the result."
After saying that, Chen Qiang ignored Song Ze's ugly expression and looked down at his phone, seemingly exchanging messages with someone.
On the judges' panel, Qin Wan watched intently as the male actors auditioned on stage.
It has to be said that the entertainment industry is much more pleasing to the eye, with both men and women having high looks. Just looking at them is a pleasure and makes one feel good.
"Is it really that good-looking?" Jiang Yan glanced at the male actor on stage with disdain.
"In terms of looks alone, they are certainly not as refined as you, but they have the advantage of being young and energetic!" Qin Wan said ruthlessly.
Jiang Yan: "???"
Is that even human language you're speaking?
Just as the two were talking, Song Ze went on stage.
On stage, Song Ze chose a memorable scene from the second male lead, "Shangguan Mo," to begin his performance.
It must be said that Song Ze's appearance is quite fitting, but his acting skills are indeed lacking.
After his performance, the director, assistant director, and screenwriter didn't react much, offering a few tactful comments with high emotional intelligence, but everyone understood what they meant.
Clearly, Song Ze also understood the deeper meaning behind the directors' words.
Seeing Song Ze's unpleasant expression, Qin Wan smiled and said, "I actually think Song Ze acted quite well."
Song Ze was taken aback.
Chen Qiang was stunned.
Jiang Yan also looked at Qin Wan with a strange expression.
"However, the character of Shangguan Mo is profound and complex, and Song Ze is too young to truly capture the essence of the character."
"However, I think Song Ze could give the role of Shangguan Mo's younger brother, Shangguan Yu, a try."
After Qin Wan finished speaking, the director, assistant director, and screenwriter, although they did not understand her deeper meaning, still agreed to let Song Ze try again, considering Qin Wan's identity and Jiang Yan sitting next to her.
Shangguan Yu is a playboy, which is indeed easier to portray than Shangguan Mo. In addition, Song Ze is naturally a womanizer, and he really captured the essence of the character, which impressed the three directors.
"Miss Qin has a discerning eye!"
"Yes, I didn't expect Song Ze to portray Shangguan Yu's philandering nature so well."
The director, assistant director, and screenwriter all praised him in turn, and a look of joy gradually appeared on Song Ze's face.
He knew that although he had missed out on the role of Shangguan Mo, the second male lead, judging from the director's and screenwriter's reactions, he was sure he would get the role of Shangguan Yu.
Although he looked down on the character Shangguan Yu, "The Legend of Phoenix" was no ordinary small-scale production.
Getting a role in this drama, even if he doesn't perform exceptionally well, will make his acting career resume look better.
Shangguan Yu was an insignificant minor character, and Song Ze's performance was indeed quite good. Out of respect for Qin Wan and Jiang Yan, the director immediately decided to cast Song Ze.
Seeing that Song Ze had successfully landed the role, although it was a bit different from their expectations, at least he hadn't completely missed out on the drama "The Legend of Phoenix". His agent, Chen Qiang, looked relatively pleased.
However… Song Ze and Chen Qiang seemed to have thought of something at the same time, and both looked towards the judges’ panel where Qin Wan was with complicated expressions.
"Why did she help me?" Song Ze couldn't help but murmur.
This is also what Chen Qiang wants to know.
"Regardless of why she did this, the only benefit for you is to be able to participate in the drama 'The Legend of Phoenix'."
"Remember, you must seize this opportunity. During filming, you must pay attention to your words and actions, and make sure to get along well with the other senior members of the crew. This will help your future development."
"Yeah, I know," Song Ze replied absentmindedly.
At this moment, his attention was entirely focused on Qin Wan.
During the audition, Song Ze noticed that Qin Wan got up and left the judges' table, seemingly heading to the restroom. Upon seeing this, Song Ze quickly got up and followed her...
Chen Qiang was on the phone in the corridor and didn't notice, so he didn't have time to stop it.
Jiang Yan, who was casually watching other actors audition, accidentally caught this scene out of the corner of his eye...
