Chapter 9: Unspoken Rules

I struggled with my arm, but his big hands were like iron tongs, and I couldn't do anything at all, so I could only raise my head and say, "Are you annoying?" Why don't you sleep at night? You are only allowed to hug left and right outside, and I am not allowed to hook up here? Why? ”

"Why?" Lu Chenyu gritted his teeth and asked, "You have to beg me to take over a play now! If you are like this, you don't know the point, believe it or not, I won't let you receive a play!"

Come on again! Threaten me with filming again! Isn't that what he can use to threaten me!

I suddenly struggled desperately, shouting at the top of my voice: "I'm not filming anymore! I'm not going to shoot a single drama! I'm not going to be an actor anymore! I'm going to divorce you! I'll announce my retirement from the entertainment industry tomorrow! I'll never film anymore! Are you satisfied!"

Shouting and shouting, I don't know where the emotion came from, tears suddenly gushed out of my eyes, and they fell down with a snap, and I couldn't stop it.

Seeing my sudden crazy appearance, Lu Chenyu was also stunned, and then said: "I didn't say that I wouldn't let you film, what are you ......?"

"Why not!" I cried and shouted, "You're a liar! We told us that we were in a relationship of helping each other! But what about you! How many stumbling blocks have you made! You won't let me film! Where the hell have I offended you, you want to hate me so much! You only know how to use me! After a woman outside, you will take me to wash my name! What have you helped me with!"

Lu Chenyu rubbed his temples with a headache, his anger was almost gone, and he said helplessly: "Why didn't I help you, didn't I already help you get the play." ”

I wanted to refute him, but I opened my mouth but was speechless for a while, although I haven't gotten much practical benefit from him in the past few years, this time the matter depends on his help, I can't cross the river and tear down the bridge so quickly, and don't buy his account.

I couldn't speak, so I had to look at him with teary eyes, hold my mouth and cry, and continue to shed tears.

He seemed to let out a long sigh, turned around and took a few tissues from the coffee table and handed them to me, and his voice softened, "Okay, don't cry, how old you are, as for it." ”

I continued to cry as I wiped my tears. I was tired of crying, and my tears were almost wiped away, so I sat on the sofa and breathed slowly.

I'm not usually a crying person, especially in front of Lu Chenyu. I'm used to competing with him, and I don't want to be looked down on by him, so I never want to show weakness. But I don't know what's wrong today, my emotions seem to be vented all of a sudden, and I can't hold back.

After thinking about it, although I don't want to admit it, I know that I am still influenced by Pei Shuqing.

Didn't I have no feelings for him at all? Why do you still have so many emotions because of him?

I sat there in a daze, not knowing when Lu Chenyu sat next to me. Seeing that I was depressed, he asked me, "What's wrong with you?

I looked up at him, looking for concern in his expression.

has been married to him for three years, and we are also in a relationship of honor and disgrace and common advance and retreat, so we should be partners with a deep relationship. Although we don't get along well, we occasionally sit down calmly to talk about our work and plan a development plan that is beneficial to both parties.

I have very few friends around me, and there are few people with whom I can talk to each other. Looking at Lu Chenyu, who was close at hand, I suddenly felt a sense of dependence for a moment.

But Pei Shuqing's matter is no better than others, I really can't mention it, I retracted my gaze and shook my head, suppressing the desire to talk to him.

Lu Chenyu waited for a while, and saw that I really didn't want to say more, so he said, "If you don't want to say it, forget it." But if there's anything, you can tell me. ”

I nodded perfunctorily, stood up, and said, "I'll go up and rest first, and there will be auditions tomorrow morning." You should go to bed early, too. ”

"Well, good night. He answered.

As I reached the end of the stairs, I unconsciously glanced down at the living room. Lu Chenyu sat alone in the empty living room, not knowing what he was thinking. I don't know if it's my delusion, but it makes me feel a little lonely.

When I woke up the next morning, I found that my eyes were swollen.

I cried too hard last night, I didn't sleep well, my face was still a little swollen, and I was not in a state, so I am afraid that the audition will not play too well.

But I knew that this role had been given to me, and Director Chen's assistant also said that the audition was just a formality, so I inevitably took it a little lightly.

Chongshuo sent me to the place where I auditioned, met with the director, screenwriter, and several producers, and took a few more characteristic clips for me to perform.

I have done a lot of homework on the characters and the script for a long time, and I have a rough idea of the performance of each part, plus I have always been confident in my acting skills, although the emotions are not in place and the performance is not attentive enough, but with my skilled acting skills, it can be regarded as showing the effect it should be. The director and producer didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

After the end, I briefly chatted about the signing of the contract, and then asked me to go back and wait for their next arrangement.

When I left the audition hall and passed by the lounge, someone stopped me.

I looked up, and yo, it was really a narrow encounter. The person in front of him was Xue Chiai.

"Sheng Qing, you're here too, auditioning girl?" she looked at me and said.

I saw that her face was not friendly, probably because I robbed the role and held a grudge, so I didn't give any smile, and said, "Yes, Sister Chi Ai is coming to audition for the second girl." ”

She stared at me faintly for a long time before she said slowly, "I want to try the female one." ”

I smiled, "Try it if you want to, go and discuss it with Director Chen, it's not a big deal to let him watch you act for a while." ”

"I just saw your performance. She said suddenly, "What do you think of your acting? Are you better than me? Are you qualified to be a female lead? Are you not afraid that your box office cancer will pit the whole drama again?"

I was a little surprised, it seems that what Lu Chenyu said is not wrong at all, this Xue Chiai's heart is too small.

Isn't it common for actresses to compete for roles with each other? Even if she is cut off by me halfway, holding a grudge and secretly retaliating in her heart, is it necessary to rush directly in front of me and speak ill of me? How ugly it is to tear her face like this, how can you play together in the future.

But I'm not a generous person, and if she ridicules me like this, I naturally have to pay it back. Didn't she just hate me for getting the role by relying on the relationship, what's wrong with the relationship, is I still not allowed to use it? I deliberately said: "Sister Chi Ai is right, I'm just a vase, I just don't have any acting skills, but what should I do, people would rather risk being played by me than give me the role." Are you angry? Then you should also look for a relationship, unspoken rules. ”

I returned the favor, and I walked away triumphantly. But I didn't expect my words to stimulate Xue Chiai a lot.

Xue Chiai stood there silent for a long time before he said to the assistant beside him, "Help me call Mr. Lin." ”

"Mr. Lin?" the assistant was surprised. That Lin is always one of the funders of "Sea", and he has been chasing Xue Chiai for some days, and he recommended Xue Chiai for the role of this movie, and he also hinted more or less that as long as Xue Chiai is willing to follow him, he can help her get the role of the first woman.

"Sister Ai, if you want to find Mr. Lin...... That old thing......" The assistant pondered, not knowing how to persuade him.

That Mr. Lin is in his fifties, with a fat head and big ears, and a wife and children at home, every time he looks at the young and beautiful Xue Chiai, his lustful and obscene face is disgusting, which is why Xue Chiai has always been reluctant to agree.

But at this time, Xue Chiai's face was only left with a desperate look. Her eyes were gloomy and she whispered, "If I lose this role because my acting skills are not good, I have nothing to say." But in this case, I am not reconciled! Why! Doesn't she just rely on relationships! I also have relationships! Who is afraid of whom!"

The assistant still couldn't bear it, and couldn't help but say: "But Sheng Qing is relying on her husband Lu Chenyu's relationship, if you go to find Mr. Lin......

"What do you know!" Xue Chiai's emotions were almost out of control, and he scolded the assistant sharply, the look on his face became more and more fierce, "I will always be pressed like this, when will I have a bright future! I'm fed up! I don't want to play the second female in my life!"

When I received a call from Director Chen's assistant informing me of a change in role, I stayed for five minutes.

He said on the phone, I'm sorry, the producer finally decided to let Xue Chiai play the female lead, if it affects me, he apologizes to me on behalf of Director Chen and the crew, and if I want, I can play the second female lead.

I wanted to ask him why he was about to sign a contract and why he changed at this time. I also want to ask him why he has changed back to Xue Chiai when he has already decided to give me a daughter. Of course, I can also answer more rationally and say okay, it's okay to play the second girl, and I'm looking forward to cooperating.

But I didn't say anything. Dumbfounded for a moment, he hung up the phone.

When I called Lu Chenyu again, my voice was unusually calm, but only I knew that my hands were shaking.

"What can I do to get the female one back. I asked straight to the point. I expected that with his relationship with Director Chen, he must have known the news earlier than me, and he must have known the solution better than me.

But he said: "Xue Chiai directly found the relationship with the funder, which is harder than mine, and I can't help it." ”

"Which funder?" I insisted. Since Lu Chenyu can't help me anymore, I can only think of other ways by myself.

But he didn't answer the question, "Okay, don't get along with yourself, you didn't debut on the first day, can't you afford to lose a role?"

It's not that I can't afford to lose it, I've been in the entertainment industry for so many years, and it's long been commonplace to grab and lose corners. But this time was different, this time it was really my chance to turn over. Even if I ask the funder, why did I choose Xue Chiai or not, what was wrong with me, even if I begged him to think about it!
