"When did I say that I wanted to marry you?" Jiujiu snorted with a look of disdain. "Do you really think that I like you, idiot?"
After Jiujiu finished speaking, she took advantage of Nangong Yu's daze to pierce the silver needle into the target's body and quickly left.
The moment she left, a teardrop slowly fell from the corner of Jiujiu's eye.
Of course, during the audition, there wouldn't be any complicated movements, but the facial expressions were extraordinarily rich.
Originally, Director Zhang allowed Jiujiu to audition because he wanted to give her face. However, when Jiujiu finished her audition, Director Zhang was shocked. Then, he directly made the decision. "Okay, Xiao Xue, it's you."
Jiujiu pursed her lips and smiled.
Everything was under control.
The two main leads had been confirmed, and Director Zhang quickly found the supporting roles.
For the sake of filming, Sean specially called his father, who was traveling around the world, and asked him to join the set.
After Sean joined the set, he found out that Jiujiu was actually the female lead, Xiao Xue.
Jiujiu was dressed in an ancient costume. Her simple hairstyle matched with her classic pink and white costume. She looked pure and feminine with a unique charm.
Sean's eyes flashed with amazement.
Jiujiu looked at Sean, who was also dressed in an ancient costume, and smiled. "Long time no see."
Sean pursed his lips. "Long time no see. Have you finished writing the second half?"
Ever since Jiujiu said that it would take some time, he had been hoping that Jiujiu would send him the second half of the script every day. However, no matter how long he waited, there was no news at all.
Because of this, he specially went to Director Zhang, but in the end, Director Zhang said that he had no comment.
When he came today, he thought that if he met Jiujiu, he would definitely ask for the second half of the script. Now that the opportunity had finally arrived, he naturally wanted to get the second half and see it.
Seeing Sean's impatient look, Jiujiu burst out laughing.
"I finished it a long time ago. I've been busy recently, so I didn't send it to you. If you're in a hurry to read it, I'll give it to you when I get back."
Hearing Jiujiu say that she had finished writing, Sean breathed a sigh of relief, but he added, "I'll go get it later."
Jiujiu pursed her lips and smiled. Then, she followed Sean to the photoshoot.
Although Director Zhang approved of Jiujiu's acting, he was still unsure when it came to taking photos.
There were many actresses who were beautiful, but when they were on camera, they always gave people a feeling of mediocrity. To put it bluntly, they were not photogenic and did not have an aura.
Jiujiu was already under a lot of pressure to be the female lead. If Jiujiu's performance was ordinary, it wouldn't be enough to convince the public.
After all, the second female lead's status was much higher than Jiujiu's.
Of course, Jiujiu wouldn't disappoint Director Zhang.
Jiujiu, who was just beautiful in front of the camera, was like a shining body in front of the camera. She was so dazzling that even when she stood next to Sean, she didn't look weak at all. Instead, she gave people a feeling that they were on par.
Jiujiu and Sean took a few pairs of photos at the request of the cameraman. After they each took a few solo photos, they retreated to the back and watched the others take their photoshoots.
Jiujiu and Sean had just walked off the stage when they saw a baby-faced woman bouncing towards them.
As soon as the woman arrived in front of them, she hugged Sean's arm like she was declaring her sovereignty. She looked up at Sean and gave him a radiant smile. "Brother Sean."
Sean was not used to being hugged by someone all of a sudden. He pushed her away and the smile on his face instantly turned cold. He replied coldly, "Why are you here?"
Being treated like this by Sean in front of Jiujiu, the woman's expression froze. However, she still forced a smile. "I am the actress who will be playing Yi Ling this time."
Yi Ling was NanGong Yu's junior. She was also the one who was betrothed to NanGong Yu.
She looked innocent, but she had a strange mind. After discovering NanGong Yu's feelings for Xiao Xue and Xiao Xue's identity, she said that she was willing to keep NanGong Yu's secret. However, she quickly told Nangong Xuan about it. She even set up a marriage between NanGong Yu and her, creating a lot of trouble for Xiao Xue and NanGong Yu's relationship.
Before seeing this woman, Jiujiu thought that the actress who would be playing Yi Ling would have to rely on makeup to make herself look evil. However, after seeing this woman, Jiujiu instantly felt that she would be playing herself.
Sure enough, Director Zhang had a good eye for casting.
While Jiujiu was looking at the woman, the woman was also looking at Jiujiu. When she thought about how Jiujiu and Sean were chatting and laughing before the photoshoot, obvious jealousy flashed across the woman's eyes.
The woman walked up to Jiujiu and reached out her hand with a smile. "Hello, my name is Liu Xin. I am Sean's childhood sweetheart. What about you?"
The moment she opened her mouth, she revealed that she was Sean's childhood sweetheart. Her declaration of sovereignty was particularly obvious.
Jiujiu pursed her lips and smiled. "My name is Qing Shishi. I am the actress who will be playing the female lead, Xiao Xue. Nice to meet you."
When she heard Jiujiu say that she was the female lead, Liu Xin was obviously stunned. Then, she asked, "Sister, you are actually the actress who will be playing Xiao Xue. That's amazing. By the way, what movies have you acted in before? Can I learn from you?"
"I used to be a screenwriter. I have never acted in a movie before. You may be disappointed."
"You have never acted in a movie before?" Liu Xin was stunned again. "But Xiao Xue's role is very complicated. If you have never acted in a movie before, then …"
As Liu Xin spoke, she looked at Sean with her eyes. Obviously, she was hinting that Sean and Jiujiu's acting skills were terrible.
Jiujiu was instantly amused by Xiao Xue's actions.
Jiujiu pursed her lips and smiled. "Although I have never acted in a movie before, it doesn't mean that I have no acting skills. Besides, Director Zhang personally chose me. Are you doubting Director Zhang's taste?"
Liu Xin instantly fell silent when she heard Director Zhang's words.
Liu Xin pursed her lips and remained silent. Jiujiu could not be bothered with Liu Xin. Instead, she looked at Sean and said, "I have something to do later. Let me give you the thing now."
In fact, the word 'thing' could be replaced by the word 'script'. However, Jiujiu was unhappy with Liu Xin's attitude toward Sean, so she directly used the word 'thing'.
Sean had been drooling over the second half of the script for a long time. When he heard that Jiujiu wanted to give it to him, he naturally quickened his pace and followed her.
Liu Xin spoke to Sean, but Sean did not respond. On the other hand, as soon as Jiujiu spoke to Sean, Sean immediately followed behind. Liu Xin was instantly angered.
Liu Xin pulled out her phone and sent a text to her assistant, asking him to investigate Jiujiu's identity.
Not only did Xiao Xue secure the role of the female lead as soon as she appeared, she also had a good relationship with Sean without Liu Xin knowing.
However, with Steamed Bun's help, Liu Xin and her assistant were able to find out almost everything about Jiujiu.
It was almost as if Xiao Xue had appeared out of thin air.
