As soon as Su Lingxin finished speaking, the department head walked over in high heels with a smile on his face.
Everyone gathered around upon seeing this, staring intently at the A4 paper folded in half in the department head's hand.
"Teacher, has Director Jiang chosen us? As long as it's Director Jiang's play, I'd be willing to play a little maid."
"Director Jiang has very high standards. Before, a young actress wanted to use her connections to get the third female role, but Director Jiang refused."
"Only a student with straight A grades like Su Lingxin could catch Director Jiang's eye."
Su Lingxin was actually still nervous. Although she refused to admit it, she knew in her heart that she was indeed overshadowed by Qiao Ruoxi, so she forgot her lines for a while.
But she was not convinced.
She blamed everything on the conversation her mother had with her.
If Qin Shi was still in China, if Qin Shi didn’t like Qiao Ruoxi, if Mr. Pei San didn’t threaten Mr. Qin Wu.
Then her mother would not have talked to her and what happened today would not have happened.
The department head pushed up his glasses and said with a smile, "Director Jiang praised everyone's acting skills, especially the script written by Rui He."
"Rui He, Director Jiang asked me to ask you if you would like to join in the scriptwriting and adaptation of his new play?"
Rui He knew that her acting skills were average, so she just went there symbolically to join in the fun. She never thought that Jiang Xun would take a fancy to her, let alone think that Jiang Xun would take a fancy to the script she wrote!
"I do!" Rui He shouted with a voice she had never heard before.
The department head smiled and nodded: "Student Ruihe, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. You must seize it and don't waste your talent!"
Rui He nodded excitedly.
She suddenly remembered the fortune telling by Qiao Ruoxi, and she got goosebumps. It was so accurate! This was a huge surprise!
The department head cleared his throat and continued, "In addition to Rui He, Director Jiang has selected three other students to play supporting roles in his new play."
"Three, there are actually three!" Everyone became excited.
Su Lingxin's whole body tensed up instantly, he clenched his fists tightly, and silently prayed to all the Bodhisattvas he could worship in his heart.
She stared blankly at the white paper in the department head's hand, trying to see through it.
"These three students are: Luo Yubai, Gao Shuyang, and Su Lingxin. Director Jiang asked me to seek your opinions."
"Sorry, I won't participate." Luo Yubai refused directly and left early.
The department head sighed. The other party was Luo Shao, so it was within her expectations that he didn't want to participate.
The moment Su Lingxin heard her name, she almost screamed, and at the same time, the breath she had been holding was finally released.
She knew that her acting skills were so good that Director Jiang would never give her up just because of a small mistake!
"Oh my god, Su Lingxin and her entire team were chosen by Director Jiang. They are so lucky!"
"What do you mean by the whole group? Isn't there one person who hasn't been selected?"
"Qiao Ruoxi's acting in that video was pretty good. She wasn't chosen, so it must be like what Su Lingxin said, because she stepped on Director Jiang's minefield, right?"
Su Lingxin had also come back to her senses from her ecstasy. She glanced at Qiao Ruoxi mockingly and lowered her voice, "Qiao Ruoxi, see? This is the price you pay for being clever."
"Student Lingxin, what are you talking about?" The voice of the department head suddenly sounded in Su Lingxin's ears.
Su Lingxin was startled and quickly explained, "I was comforting classmate Qiao Ruoxi. She was the only one in the group who was not selected."
The department head smiled happily. "Students should help each other. That's good, but there's no need to comfort them. Ruoxi, please come out with me for a moment. I need to talk to you alone."
Qiao Ruoxi responded and followed the department head out.
The department head's attitude made Su Lingxin feel a little strange, so she followed him out quietly.
"Student Ruoxi, your performance today was excellent. It exceeded all the teachers' expectations. Especially when you saw your opponent getting stuck on a line, you were able to resolve it quietly. This is very rare. The teachers are very proud of you!"
The department head patted Qiao Ruoxi on the shoulder and said these words with a smile on his face, but they sounded like sharp thorns in Su Lingxin's ears.
It turns out that the department head had seen through it, so she called Qiao Ruoxi out just to praise her?
But this kind of praise used to belong to her!
Su Lingxin felt indescribably sour in her heart.
She had to comfort herself.
It’s okay. The department head must have seen that Qiao Ruoxi was not selected, so he came to comfort her on purpose.
The fact that she was chosen by Director Jiang shows that she has real talent, so she disdains such praise.
Su Lingxin was just feeling a little more balanced when she heard the department head speak again.
"Look, Ruoxi, have you heard about the new drama Director Jiang is about to start filming?"
Qiao Ruoxi nodded: "Rui He told me a little bit about it and also recommended the original novel to me."
The department head breathed a sigh of relief. "Then you should have a certain understanding of the heroine's personality, right? It's like this. Director Jiang's original chosen heroine for this drama can't participate due to some unexpected circumstances. Director Jiang thinks you fit the image of the heroine in her mind, so she hopes you can audition."
Qiao Ruoxi:?
"Student Ruoxi, you don't have to be too stressed. Let me tell you something. Master Pei has just decided to invest 200 million yuan in this drama. Even if you don't get the audition, the worst you can do is play the third female lead. Do you understand?"
