Chapter 29: Take your time
"Ah....." He Zhiheng didn't expect Ding Yao to say this, his voice was a little choked, but he quickly said: "I haven't seen her for a long time, I should see her, but it's too late today, I'll go to the house to sit another day." β
In fact, Ding Lihua and He Zhiheng divorced and did not tear up tragically, she was sent back to her hometown by He Zhiheng at the beginning of her pregnancy, and when she met again, He Zhiheng became a star, and she also had Bai Fumei's girlfriend Lu Xinran by her side, but Ding Lihua became a mountain village woman, and her inferiority complex was enough to make Ding Lihua choose to let go, not to mention that He Zhiheng took out all his net worth at that time in exchange for a free body, compensated Ding Lihua's mother and daughter for a set of real estate in Beijing, and solved the household registration problem for the two, so the two of them can be regarded as a good get-together and disperse.
But Ding Yao already knew He Zhiheng's character, and everything he did was just to appease his wife and not expose his old background in front of outsiders.
Ding Yao was indifferent in his heart, looked at the road in front of him and reminded him: "If you go wrong, turn right at the next intersection." β
"Have you moved?" asked He Zhiheng in surprise.
"Hmm. Ding Yao didn't plan to explain too much, waiting for him to ask himself.
Ho Zhiheng said: "Why did you move?
"The house is too old and inconvenient to live in, just like this month. β
Seeing Ding Yao's casual answer, He Zhiheng's heart relaxed a little, and he nodded and said, "That house has been around for many years, and now that you have an income, you should change houses with your mother." β
Ding Yao didn't answer, and continued to show He Zhiheng the way, and after a while, the car stopped downstairs at Ding Yao's house.
He Zhiheng looked up at the building in front of him and asked, "What floor do you live on?"
"16th floor. β
Ding Yao said, unbuckled his seat belt, and went upstairs without looking back after saying goodbye to He Zhiheng.
When she got home, Ding Lihua hadn't slept yet, she was watching TV in the living room, and when she saw Ding Yao entering the door, she said casually: "Why did you come back so late? You are getting more and more popular now, you should also be careful when entering and exiting, don't meet bad people when taking a taxi so late." β
Ding Yao said "um", and then asked her mother: "Mom, who called the police when you had a car accident?"
Ding Lihua's eyes were still on the TV, and she said: "It should be a warm-hearted person passing by, I was knocked unconscious directly, and I was in the hospital when I woke up, and I don't know what happened." β
After she finished speaking, she turned her head and asked, "Why did you suddenly mention this?"
Ding Yao was afraid that her mother would think too much, so she comforted her and said, "It's nothing, it's just that the driver who caused the accident hasn't been found, and I can't be angry." β
"I'm also angry when I mention this, I am still walking on a zebra crossing on such a wide road, but a car suddenly rushes out of the corner....."
Ding Yao suddenly interrupted her: "Do you remember what car it was?"
"It's a truck, I can't remember exactly what the brand is, it's a newly built road, there are not many people in normal times, and the monitoring hasn't been installed yet, otherwise I can catch that bastard! This hospitalization cost a lot of money, if it weren't for your salary, the family would still ......"
Ding Lihua chattered, but Ding Yao's eyes darkened.
Without surveillance, the driver fled, is this really a simple traffic accident?
If it weren't for Ding Yao's rebirth, she wouldn't have any doubts about He Zhiheng's abnormality tonight, and when she heard her mother stop talking, she then asked, "Did anything special happen before the car accident?"
Ding Lihua thought for a while and said, "There is one thing..... It's not too special, more than a month before the car accident was Lu Guolin's death day, and that day I went to the temple to offer incense and met Lu Guolin's wife. β
Ding Yao came to her senses, sat down beside her mother, and motioned for her to continue.
"I didn't know her at first, everyone was a pilgrim, I looked at her kind person and chatted a few words, and then I found an excuse to go first. β
Hearing this, Ding Yao was puzzled: "Why?"
Ding Lihua explained: "I feel ashamed, I don't dare to face Mrs. Lu, Lu Guolin took me over and didn't embarrass me, he arranged me to live in a place temporarily, and called your father, but halfway through the matter, he answered the phone and left angrily, this time, the person is gone." β
Ding Lihua's tone was all regretful, but Ding Yao smiled, it was another car accident, where are there so many coincidences in this world.
"Doesn't Mrs. Lu know you?" Ding Yao continued to ask.
Ding Lihua shook her head and said: "At that time, Lu Guolin died unexpectedly, and the mother and daughter suffered a lot of blows, your father was afraid of stimulating them again, so he begged me not to make a noise, I have no grudge against them, and I know that your father has no feelings for me anymore, so I simply agreed to him and quietly went through the divorce procedures." β
Ding Yao suddenly realized, no wonder when her mother was in a car accident in her previous life and needed money urgently, she went to He Zhiheng for help but didn't even get a penny, she just wanted to give her mother a compliment, this is really a good ex-wife in China, helping her ex-husband to rise all the way, and now she is being killed and killed, and she can still be so calm and undoubted.
"Mom, you're so kind. Ding Yao hugged her mother's shoulders and smiled.
Ding Lihua also laughed, her daughter's intimacy made her a little uncomfortable, and she was going to ask Ding Yao why she suddenly mentioned this matter, but she thought about it.
She poked Ding Yao's forehead and said, "Okay, won't there be an audition tomorrow, go to bed early." β
Ding Yao didn't bother much about He Zhiheng's affairs, she knew very well that the first thing to do now was to gain a firm foothold and make herself strong, as for the debts that should be collected, she was not in a hurry at all, He Zhiheng was so jealous, he would definitely spend his time dealing with the big creditors, protect his mother by himself, and then find an opportunity to take his time.
The next day's audition was contacted by Xu Jie to Ding Yao, director Chen Ruiguang is also a famous director, and Xu Jie is also a teacher and friend, Xu Jie saw that he had been hesitant to choose a role in the new film, so he recommended Ding Yao.
The movie is called "Wutong Hairpin", which tells the love story of a rich daughter and a chivalrous swordsman, the main creative lineup has been determined, only the role of "Coral" auditioned by Ding Yao has not been decided, in fact, there are not many roles in this role, at most it is a female No. 4, and a few people have auditioned, but Chen Ruiguang always feels that those actors are missing something, after all, this role is the white moonlight in the heart of the male protagonist, pure and kind, out of the world, among the alternative actors, none of them fully meets his expectations.
Chen Ruiguang was very satisfied with Ding Yao after watching "Pure White Love", and listened to Xu Jie's recommendation, so he immediately agreed.
Ding Yao was very surprised when she received the audition invitation, isn't this Pei Xiwen's masterpiece?
Ding Yao has watched the drama "Wutong Hairpin" many times in her previous life, with a strong cast, the male number one is the actor Shen Che, and the female number one Pei Xiwen has become the first love of the people with "Pure White Love" when filming this drama, even if it is a coral who does not eat heavy roles, it is also played by Lin Jiajia, a very popular pure actress at that time.
But now Pei Xiwen has not filmed "Pure White Love", but her first love as a new national has been favored by Chen Ruiguang to play coral, what kind of trouble is this?
Ding Yao went to the audition with curiosity about the future, but Chen Ruiguang only asked her a few questions.
"Have you read the script, what do you think of the role of Sango?"
Ding Yao pondered the language for a moment and said, " Coral doesn't seem to be familiar with the world, but in fact she is very smart, she knows that her background is not good, and she is not worthy of Situ Jin, so she hides all her feelings and does not let others suspect her and Situ Jin's closeness, she knows that Yu Yan'er loves Situ Jin, so she concealed the truth of her imminent death after being poisoned, and confessed for Yu Yan'er, not only helping her good sister, but also solving the dilemma for her sweetheart, and allowing them to remember her forever, her attraction is not only her appearance and kindness, but also because she knows how to restrain and know when to do it, even if she dies, it is unforgettableγ β
Chen Ruiguang: "Hmm. With a sigh, he touched his beard thoughtfully, and now he finally figured out why he had been dissatisfied with the interpretation of coral by the previous actors, not that they were not beautiful enough to enter the play, but that they acted without level.
Chen Ruiguang has always been striving for excellence in filming, although this film is the female number one designated by the investor, but he did not relax his requirements for other roles, but had high hopes for other roles, wanting to make up for the shortcomings that the female number one may bring because she is a newcomer.
He glanced at Ding Yao and asked: "Ancient costumes are not the same as modern dramas, you haven't filmed ancient costumes, do you think you can shoot them well?"
Ding Yao said: "My face shape is very standard, there is no problem in controlling ancient costumes, the bangs are thinned with the shape of the left and right symmetrical ball heads, the appearance should be able to achieve the feeling you want, the eye makeup is not too heavy, and the effect of my side face will be better, does Director Chen need me to try the style?"
"No, the coral is up to you. β
Ding Yao: ?????
What kind of operation is this? It is directly decided without even an audition? Didn't Xu Jie say that Chen Ruiguang has always had a headache for this role?
Chen Ruiguang also seemed to see Ding Yao's doubts, and explained with a wave of his hand: "Your appearance is fine, and your grasp of the characters is also in place, since Director Xu said that you are good, I believe that you have acting skills, and there is no need for auditions, the actors of the film are basically decided, and you are left for the role." β
Hearing him say this, Ding Yao asked weakly: "Can I ask, who is the male and female number one?"
"The male number one is Shen Che, and the female number one is a newcomer, named Pei Xiwen. β
Sure enough, it was still the two of them.
In her previous life, Pei Xiwen won the actress of that year with this drama, but now that this drama has started ahead of schedule, and the actor of coral has also become herself, will Pei Xiwen still be the youngest Yushu Award actress?
Chen Ruiguang saw Ding Yao thoughtfully, and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry, although Shen Che is a big name, he is kind and gets along very well in private, you have the most rivals, and if you don't understand, you can learn more from him." β
Ding Yao nodded very humbly, hiding the smile in her eyes.
Shen Che, she is very familiar, since she met in advance, she simply became a matchmaker.
After signing a corner of the coral and getting another salary, Ding Yao upgraded the security measures at home, and reported two more tour groups to her mother, which was called letting her go out to relax and relax.
Anyway, people are not in the country, and some people can't reach them, so they will wait for her to find out the truth of the matter before making plans.
