"Before you can gain recognition from others, you must first recognize yourself. If you become discouraged and deny yourself, how can you expect others to see your strengths?" Wen Yuli, who had been silent until now, put down his chopsticks and said these words with a sense of empathy.
He poured himself a glass of warm water and took a few sips to get rid of the bitterness.
Lin Yang was still thinking about how to answer the question. She was blessed with a natural talent. Directors who had worked with her in her original world all praised her talent, and she rarely received any criticism.
In her previous life, she rose to fame mainly because of her quick and easy acting skills, which did not require much time to hone. She also had an almost photographic memory for her lines and did not need to deliberately memorize them.
Sometimes Lin Yang wondered if she had had too easy a life in her original world, so God arranged for her to come to this world by mistake and make her suffer more.
Therefore, Lin Yang didn't feel much empathy for Chu Yu's depressed mood.
While he was still racking his brains for a comforting message, Wen Yuli answered first.
It's not some profound truth that's hard to understand, but it still requires some effort to fully comprehend before putting it into practice.
“Senior Wen, you’re absolutely right. I shouldn’t have given up on myself so quickly. But the words Director Zheng just said are still ringing in my ears.” Chu Yu nodded in agreement with Wen Yuli, but Wen Yuli’s words did not quickly dispel his dejection.
Chu Yu raised his head slightly, his expectant gaze falling on Lin Yang, who was still thinking about how to start the conversation.
"Then you should reflect on your actions and try your best to portray this emotion well. Why do you talk so much nonsense as a grown man?" Xu Chengzhi, having just come out of his joyful mood, spoke impatiently.
With a furious glare, Xu Chengzhi's gaze met Chu Yu's across from him.
Xu Chengzhi immediately saw through Chu Yu's little hint of affection. With a possessive desire to assert his dominance, he delivered a sarcastic remark, "Some people are guilty of coveting what is not theirs."
"Brother Xu, what are you saying? I don't quite understand." Chu Yu pretended to be innocent and quietly withdrew his gaze.
"Whether you understand or not is none of my business," Xu Chengzhi said, too lazy to waste words on someone like Chu Yu, and shut him down with a single sentence.
Now, Chu Yu, who was already depressed, turned even darker.
"Brother Chu Yu, don't take what Brother Xu said to heart. Trust Xi'er. Xi'er has a feeling that Brother Chu Yu will have a bright future. This is just a small bump on your road to success. Once you get over it, you'll be one step closer to success." Lu Xiangxi's little mouth chattered on, carefully encouraging Chu Yu's wounded heart.
"Yes, Xiangxi, thank you so much." Chu Yu forced himself to cheer up and thanked Lu Xiangxi for her words.
Lin Yang was still pondering whether she should respond with witty remarks like Lu Xiangxi, or offer comfort like Wen Yuli.
After thinking for a long time, they had finished saying everything, but Lin Yang still hadn't managed to utter a single word.
"Ah! I've got it!" Lin Yang suddenly clapped his hands and cheered, almost startling everyone in the subtly tense atmosphere.
All eyes were immediately drawn to Lin Yang.
Lin Yang scratched her head sheepishly, and under everyone's gaze, she looked at Chu Yu with a serious expression.
"Go for it!" Lin Yang clenched her fist and lowered her arm to make a cheering gesture.
"..."
Everyone fell silent. After all that, you only managed to utter these two words?
In the end, Chu Yu suppressed his embarrassment and forced a smile, saying "Thank you."
