Chapter 135: Chapter 135 Entertainment Circleâs Best Actress VS Lucky Newcomer (Part 20)
The next day, the news that Best Actress Ruan Keyi and supermodel Ludwig were suspected of dating hit all the major headlines.
However, neither party intended to respond to the question, and the media hadnât blocked anyone either.
âHost, when do you plan to accept Ludwigâs pursuit?â the system asked curiously.
Gu Shengyin was painting her nails and glanced at the system upon hearing this, âThis, depends on my mood,â she said.
The system didnât quite understand why the host, who clearly loved her partner, wasnât together with him this time even though she knew his identity.
Gu Shengyin didnât want to explain to her system what âplaying hard to getâ meant.
...
âYou, as the treasured artifact of our Divine Clan, should know the fate of our Divine Clan is tied to the Astrolabe Compassâif it falls into the hands of others, do you know how severe the consequences could be?â Queen Shen Yinâs face was frosty as she slammed a hand down on the table and stood up, looking sternly at the Astrolabe Spirit standing before her.
This scene was where the Astrolabe Spirit was caught by Queen Shen Yin trying to sneak out of the Divine Clan Forbidden Area to play, thus infuriating her.
Ming Shujia knew she should argue back, but with Gu Shengyinâs full aura in her angry state, she simply couldnât speak.
âCut!â
Director Li wasnât pleased with Ming Shujia. Just now, Gu Shengyinâs display, whether it was the aura, expression, or body language, was spot on; even he was about to applaud, not expecting Ming Shujia to falter completely.
It would frustrate anyone.
âLetâs do it again!â
âYou, as the treasured artifact of our Divine Clan, should know the fate of our Divine Clan is tied to the Astrolabe Compassâif it falls into the hands of others, do you know how severe the consequences could be?â
âI⊠IâŠâ Ming Shujia was almost in tears from the anxiety, but she really couldnât say it.
This time, before Director Li could get angry, she took the initiative to apologize.
âPlease, Director Li, give me one more chance,â she pleaded humbly, knowing that if she dissatisfied the director with her performance, given his temper, it was highly likely he would replace her.
Director Li gave her another chance, but Ming Shujia failed to seize it.
âCut! Letâs put this scene on hold for now. Keyi, go take a rest. Zhang Qiao, Xu Ruyun, both of you get ready for the next scene,â instructed Director Li, directly signaling the two actors standing aside.
Turning around to Ming Shujia, he said, âStudy the script thoroughly these next two days. Iâll give you another try in two days, and if you still canât do it by then, donât bother coming back.â
Ming Shujia bit her lip and nodded.
She approached Gu Shengyin who was standing to the side, âSister Keyi, could you please help me go over the lines in the next two days?â
The moment she spoke, several actors preparing nearby looked over incredulously.
Who did Ming Shujia think she was? Daring to ask a celebrated Best Actress to rehearse with her?
Gu Shengyin was also surprised for a moment. It seemed Ming Shujia really had no other options?
However, helping an eighteen-tier minor actress rehearse? Ruan Keyi was not so undervalued, nor was she prepared to inflate Ming Shujiaâs worth like that.
âIâm truly sorry. I have scenes to shoot these days, and I have to attend an engagement tomorrow afternoon, so Iâm afraid I wonât have the time,â Gu Shengyin replied with a polite smile, declining quite decisively.
After Gu Shengyin left, someone by the side scoffed, âSome people really think too highly of themselves just because theyâve found a rich patron, huh? Expecting a Best Actress to rehearse with you? Do you know how much Sister Keyi is worth?â
That Ming Shujia had gotten into the crew through the back door wasnât a secret in the production. Although she had been low-key and hardworking recently, there were actors who still couldnât stand her.
Ming Shujia hung her head low, her fingernails digging hard into the palm of her hand, letting the piercing pain stimulate her emotions.
These people who look down on me, one day, Iâll make you all regret it!
