Chapter 210 The Woman Who Stole Chicken Legs
"Did Mr. Chen go back and do some special training with Miss Su?" Liang Wen walked up and asked curiously.

Not only him, but all the staff present, including Su Meiyu, wore expressions of disbelief.

Chen Wei's acting skills were already top-notch in the industry before. It hasn't been long since we last met, but he has risen to more than one level. His progress cannot be summarized by the word "rapid".
"Director Liang is joking. His acting skills are much better than mine now," Su Meiyu admitted.

Liang Wen actually thought so too. Compared to Su Meiyu, Chen Wei's performance was more delicate. He controlled every look and every movement perfectly.

He had initially thought that Su Meiyu had given Chen Wei special training, but now it seemed that it had nothing to do with her.

Otherwise, Su Meiyu's expression wouldn't be the same as his.

"Maybe he's found his rhythm?" Chen Wei gave a vague explanation, but the title of "Best Actor" was truly effective.

The moment he faced the camera, Chen Wei felt like he was Lin Xiao, completely transformed into another person—a devoted man who silently gave his all.

“I knew I hadn’t misjudged him. Mr. Chen is born to perform. Why not consider becoming a professional actor?” Liang Wen was very much looking forward to seeing what kind of achievements Chen Wei could make in the entertainment industry.

Judging solely from this film, winning Best Actor would be a stretch, but Best Actor or similar awards are more likely. In any case, he's almost certain to win an award.

“It’s a pity that Mr. Chen has too few scenes in this movie and doesn’t have enough room to perform. Otherwise, he would definitely be a shoo-in for Best Actor. If there’s a chance, I can tailor-make a movie for you,” Liang Wen said.

"I definitely will if I have the chance," Chen Wei replied politely.

Just as Liang Wen said, although Chen Wei is the male lead, he doesn't have many scenes.

Today's scene was originally scheduled to last two hours, but because Chen Wei and Su Meiyu's acting skills are both extremely stable, it was finished in less than half an hour.

"You don't need to wait for me. If you're bored, you can go back first." Su Meiyu handed Chen Wei a bottle of chilled drink.

In this kind of weather, waiting here for seven or eight hours is not a good decision.

"Well, I'm leaving now, sister."

"Be careful on the road." Su Meiyu waved.

Chen Wei was not in a hurry to leave. The film studio was quite large, and he planned to wander around and see how the film crews shot their movies.

After walking around, the overall feeling can be summed up in two words: monotonous. The film genres are not as diverse as in my previous life, which included ghost stories, zombie apocalypses, epic tales, and magical mysteries...

Unfortunately, Chen Wei didn't remember much of the content, so trying to make a movie or TV series based on that little bit of memory was just asking the impossible.

"Stop! Don't run!" A cursing voice suddenly came from afar.

"Excuse me, could you please move aside?" And then there was a woman's laughter.

"What are you doing?"

"Don't push me!"

"Watch out! Watch out! It's going to fall!"

……

Pushing through the crowd, their eyes met, and in that instant, a single sentence escaped the woman's lips: "Ah, it's over!"

She knew she was bound to crash into Chen Wei hard; at that distance, there was no way to avoid it.

But this guy... is so handsome!
If it were someone else, the woman probably wouldn't be so decisive; she would be prepared to run right into something.

"Ah!" Unexpectedly, Chen Wei moved aside and dodged, and by the time she reacted, she had already fallen heavily to the ground.

"Why did you dodge? Ouch, that hurts!" the woman complained, clutching her badly injured shoulder.

"Didn't you say please move aside?" Chen Wei retorted.

This guy really has no sense of romance!
The woman looked at him speechlessly.

"No, don't run!" The man caught up, one hand on his knee, the other pointing at the woman, panting heavily. The woman quickly hid behind Chen Wei, peeking out and saying, "It's just two more boxed lunches of yours, is it really that big of a deal? My boyfriend is a karate champion, you'd better not go looking for trouble."

Boyfriend? Me?
Chen Wei frowned slightly as he looked at the woman hiding behind him.

"Please help me," the woman pleaded, blinking her eyes.

"Two? The crew had chicken leg lunches today, and you stole all the chicken legs. How am I supposed to explain this to the director and the others?" The man hadn't calmed down yet, and his words were broken.

"I was greedy, I admit my mistake. We're all just trying to make a living, please let me off the hook, uncle." The woman tried to appease him by acting cute.

"If I let you go, will the director let me go? Either pay up or go to the police station, you choose!" the men said one after another.

"Um, could you lend me some money?" The woman gently tugged at Chen Wei's sleeve, her voice very soft.

"If I lend you this money, what's the difference between that and throwing a meat bun to a dog?" Chen Wei asked.

"It's just a few hundred yuan, it's not like I can't pay it back, I just forgot my wallet," the woman said defiantly, not wanting to be looked down upon.

“That jade around your neck must be quite valuable. If you’re willing to lower the price, I can lend you the money.” Chen Wei has a certain talent for appraising jade; even a high-quality fake can be worth a thousand yuan or so.

"Tch, how heartless." The woman said this, but her body obediently took the jade pendant off her neck and handed it to Chen Wei, "Take it."

"Let go!" Chen Wei said, dragging her.

"I've let go."

Snapped!
"Hey! It hurts!"

Chen Wei slapped the woman's hand across the face. Showing mercy? Not a chance.

After accepting the jade pendant, Chen Wei approached the man and asked, "How much?"

"Three hundred." The man's tone softened.

Getting the money is just a matter of making another phone call to order takeout; there's plenty of time.

We're all just trying to make a living, and the man doesn't want to deliberately make things difficult for anyone.

"I'm so sorry that silly woman caused you trouble." Chen Wei placed the money in the man's hand.

"Since you're her boyfriend, keep an eye on her. Pretending to be an extra to steal food, I've never seen anything like it in all my years," the man said speechlessly.

“What do you mean by pretending to be an extra? I am an actor, okay!” the woman retorted excitedly.

However, no one paid any attention; everyone continued with their own busywork.

"Hey! Wait for me." The woman caught up with Chen Wei.

"What?"

"Can I have my jade pendant back?"

"Okay." Before the woman could even feel happy, she saw Chen Wei stretch out his hand, clearly asking her for money.

“This jade pendant of mine is very expensive, definitely more than three hundred,” the woman emphasized.

"So what? If you can't pay me back, this jade pendant is mine," Chen Wei explained the rules.

"Then you have to leave me your contact information, right? I'll transfer the money to you as soon as I've raised it. Before I do, you absolutely cannot sell the jade pendant or give it to anyone, understand?" The woman spread her arms, blocking Chen Wei's path, her posture extremely serious and resolute.

Fifth update... I was originally going to update more today, but I'm sick, my drafts are all gone, and this book is a genre I'm trying for the first time, so I had to give up some of my previous experience, which made it quite difficult to produce. Four or five updates a day is my limit. I've been writing since 10 a.m., so I apologize.
