Chapter 11: Acting is not enough
There was still the skirt that Lu Qinghua brought just now on the sofa, Jiang Xi glanced at it, and his eyes fell on me again.
The skirt was torn from the thighs, and my skin was exposed in the air, somewhat conspicuous.
Seeing me shrink his legs, Jiang Xiyi seemed to have suddenly lost interest.
"Heh, having an affair with you is pulling down my worth."
The bitter feeling spread from my heart, and after taking a deep breath, I looked up, "I have to change my clothes, you go down and wait for me." ”
A cold gaze swept over my face, Jiang Xiyi didn't hide the disgust in his heart, pushed open the door and went out.
It wasn't until there was no smell of Jiang Xiyi in the air that I sat on the sofa like a deflated balloon.
The skirt Lu Qinghua gave me fits perfectly, and I'm glad that I wore the versatile black high heels today, but when I came down from upstairs, I almost fell.
Jiang Xiyi in the crowd was particularly eye-catching, but even more eye-catching was Cui Lingyun beside him.
As if seeing me, Cui Lingyun smiled and sent a provocative look.
I seem to be able to feel the gaze of the people around me looking at me, but when I actually look over, I find that no one is looking at me at all.
Also, who can tell that I am Jiang Xiyi's woman?
I walked to the table and took a glass of red wine, and walked towards the corner step by step, I recognized that the few people sitting here were all famous directors in the circle.
Taking a deep breath, I stepped forward with my skirt in my hand, "Director Chen, long time no see." ”
The man sitting in the middle of a few people looked up, his eyes scanning up and down over me.
"Excuse me, young lady, do we know each other?"
Taking another step forward, I chuckled, "Director Chen is a noble person, you came to our school audition before, and you praised me for being beautiful at that time." ”
In fact, I didn't make it to the audition that day.
That night, Jiang Xiyi got drunk and had a recurrence of stomach problems, so I took him to the hospital, and I missed the opportunity.
"Really?" Director Chen squinted his eyes, with a smile on his face, unable to see what was going on in his heart.
"To say that Director Chen is really enviable, all the films he has made in the past few years are youth films, the resources at hand are the best, the actresses are more beautiful than the other, I think this young lady is very good."
It was a producer with outstanding ability in the circle who spoke, and I looked over with some gratitude, but before I could say thank you, I heard-
"It's useless to be pretty, it's the way to get things done."
As he spoke, his gaze fell on the cup in my hand.
Outsiders only see the glamorous and glamorous stars after they become famous, and they don't know the hardships and sadness they encounter before they get up.
Female stars, especially those with no background, climb up more or less by their bodies.
Naturally, I wouldn't sell my body just because I was famous, but I didn't want to miss the opportunity in front of me.
"What Producer Wang said makes sense." I walked over with a smile and sat on the sofa next to Director Chen, "Director Chen, I respect you?" ”
Director Chen did not refuse, picked up the cup on the table and took a sip.
"What's your name?"
"Song Chichi, a graduate of Jiangcheng Communication University this year."
Director Chen bowed, put down the cup and spoke: "I have a good role for you." ”
I pretended to be calm, "Really? Director Chen said this, and I was a little flattered. ”
"It's just a small investment, it's an online drama, if this actor doesn't have any gimmicks, it is estimated that the final results will not be very good."
Director Chen's words were like a basin of cold water poured on my heart, and I understood the meaning of these words.
As if seeing the disappointment on my face, Director Chen leaned back on the sofa and said to me with a smile: "If Miss Song wants to try the second female lead, it's not impossible." ”
The flame that had just been extinguished was ignited again, "Director Chen, what you said is true?" ”
Producer Zhang, who had been listening to us, laughed, "What Director Chen said can be fake?" It's just that Director Chen's identity is so easy to be snatched away by you, it's a little unreasonable, Miss Song, don't you express it? ”
I had expected this result for a long time, and my body stiffened, and I knew how ugly the smile on my face was without looking in the mirror.
After two seconds of silence, I took the wine bottle from the table and poured wine, and quietly approached Director Chen, "If I can get this role, I will naturally not disappoint Director Chen." ”
I was thinking about how to make Director Chen not only dispel the idea of unspoken rules, but also give me the role, when I heard a familiar voice coming from a distance.
"Director Chen, it turns out that you are here, I have been looking for you for a long time."
The man next to me stood up suddenly, and the movement I was leaning on suddenly lost support, and my body staggered a little.
"Mr. Jiang, Miss Cui."
Jiang Xiyi, who was hugging Cui Lingyun, smiled with a smile on his face, "It seems that Director Chen is busy?" ”
Director Chen waved his hand, "Are you busy or not, aren't you just here to play today, and by the way, I'm looking for a role in the next play." ”
Along with Director Chen's words, I could feel Jiang Xi's gaze falling on me, and my back was like a needle prick for a while.
It's just that the way out was blocked by Jiang Xiyi and Cui Lingyun, and I thought that when I went out, I would inevitably pass by them.
After hesitating, Jiang Xiyi had already sat down with Cui Lingyun in his arms, "Director Chen thinks, how about our Lingyun?" ”
The word "we" slapped me in the face so hard that I could even imagine the smug expression on Cui Lingyun's face.
Director Chen nodded happily when he heard this, "Miss Cui's image is very suitable!" ”
Cui Lingyun, who was sitting next to Jiang Xiyi, looked shy, and hated Jiang Xiyi, "Mr. Jiang, why don't you discuss with others?" ”
Jiang Xi glanced at me as if he was nothing, and then chuckled: "You don't want to act?" ”
"Of course!" Cui Lingyun raised her voice and turned her head to look at Director Chen: "Since Director Chen has said so, I am relieved, I don't know when Director Chen's side will start, my drama is not over yet." ”
Director Chen smiled and rubbed his hands, "When is Miss Cui free, when will she come over, this will not be delayed, and this will not be delayed......"
As he spoke, he looked at Jiang Xiyi and said with some hesitation: "It's just Mr. Jiang, this drama is a small investment, I'm afraid that I have wronged Miss Cui, you can ...... it."
"Don't worry about investment." Jiang Xiyi's voice was low, and he looked at Cui Lingyun affectionately and said, "As long as Lingyun has fun, I will solve the money matter." ”
I couldn't sit down anymore, pinching my skirt and preparing to leave quietly, but as soon as I moved, I heard Cui Lingyun call me.
"Isn't this Miss Song?"
The pain in my hand was still fresh in my memory, and I gritted my teeth and looked up, still with an unassailable smile on my face.
"Miss Cui, Mr. Jiang."
Seeing that we knew each other, Director Chen was very surprised, "It turns out that a few people know each other." ”
"Old friend." Cui Lingyun spoke, "The "Phoenix Queen" I am filming now is also cooperating with Miss Song. ”
Director Chen turned his head to look at me, as if he didn't believe that a newcomer with no background like me could film with Cui Lingyun.
"Coincidentally, I was still talking to Miss Song about the role just now, although I can't play the heroine, but ...... It's still okay for the second female and the third female. ”
The ridicule in Director Chen's words was a little harsh, and I could only purse my lips and smile, not daring to look up at Jiang Xiyi's face.
"I don't know if Miss Song plays the ...... in "The Phoenix Queen"
I looked up, and a seductive smile appeared on my face, "The maid next to the princess, Ning'er." ”
As soon as these words came out, I heard the laughter around me.
Cui Lingyun, who was sitting opposite, smiled brightly, wasn't this what she wanted from the beginning, and she used me to support herself.
Director Chen smiled, "However, following the queen played by Miss Cui, there should be a lot of opportunities to appear on camera." ”
Enduring the ridicule in my words, I gritted my teeth.
"Miss Song, I hope that Director Chen's new drama can also cooperate well."
Cui Lingyun is worthy of being a popular Hua Dan now, and there is not a trace of flaw in her words from beginning to end, I raised my eyes and looked over.
Looking at each other, I could see the mockery in Cui Lingyun's eyes.
"I'm sorry, I thought about it, my acting skills are not mature enough, and I still need to sharpen it, Director Chen." I turned my head and said to Director Chen, "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you." ”
It is estimated that I am the first newcomer who does not know the height of the sky and wants to refuse Director Chen, and the faces of several people in front of me are not good-looking.
When I was about to walk away, Jiang Xi, who was sitting on the sofa and didn't look at me much from beginning to end, said:
"Miss Song doesn't look down on Lingyun's supporting role?"
I paused, unable to move.
After a long time, the stiff muscles in my body slowly recovered, and I smiled and said, "Whatever Mr. Jiang said, I am naturally willing, but I ......"
"Just what?"
The pain on the tip of my tongue reminded me that some of what happened was true, and the cold color on Jiang Xiyi's handsome face made my heart tingle.
He's really disgusted with me.
"It's just that I don't have enough acting skills, so I can only refuse."
Cui Lingyun sneered: "But didn't Miss Song just now still beg Director Chen to want a role?" ”
My heart sank, it seems that they heard the conversation between me and Director Chen just now.
I turned grimaced, gritted my teeth and said, "I'm sorry, I don't want to take this scene." ”
The temperature around me dropped, and Jiang Xiyi looked at me coldly, "Who allowed you to leave?" ”
Not leaving? Is it possible to stay and continue to be humiliated by him?
I clenched my fists, anger radiating from every pore of my body.
But the person in front of me is Jiang Xiyi, Jiang Xiyi, who just married me home and said that he would let me pay for my sins for the rest of my life!
I can't resist it.
The slender finger pointed to a bottle of wine on the table, "After drinking, you can go." ”
Almost instantly, I felt the gaze around me pierce my heart like a stinger.
I looked up and looked at Jiang Xiyi, and my eyes were covered with a layer of mist.
"I'm done drinking, can I go?"
Seeing Jiang Xi's bow, I walked to the table and filled a glass of wine with a wine bottle, and poured it into my throat under the gaze of everyone.
The spicy sensation spread from my throat to my whole body, and I poured a few glasses, only to put them down when I saw that the bottle was finally empty.
"Mr. Jiang, I'...... Can you go? ”
The man snorted coldly, looking at me with a smile, and his voice was as cold as an ice cube: "No." ”
