Zheng Xixi didn't get the script either. Dan Juanzhi stayed for a while, watched Zheng Xixi's timid look in front of Sun Ya, and returned to the hotel with satisfaction.

After finishing the morning's scenes the next day, the director called him over and praised him, saying that his scenes were about to be wrapped up and hoped to have the opportunity to work together again. Shan Juanzhi thanked the director and after returning to the hotel, he was dragged into the car by Zheng Xixi and taken away before he had even had lunch.

Shan Juanzhi's hair has grown to his neck because of filming recently, so Zheng Xixi took him to a membership-based styling salon and asked the stylist to give him a hairstyle that would outshine everyone else.

The stylist and Zheng Xixi have been partners for many years and have a close relationship. Upon hearing this, she smiled and asked, "Are you going to walk the red carpet?"

Zheng Xixi sat down on the sofa next to him. The stylist's assistant brought him his favorite coffee. Zheng Xixi took a sip of the cup with satisfaction and said, "I'm going to meet someone. If I don't have the height, I can make up for it with my presence. You should give him the full aura."

Shan Juanzhi, who is 182cm tall but not as good as Lu Hechuan who is 188cm tall, remained silent.

The stylist thought it was funny and asked Shan Juanzhi, "What kind of effect do you want?"

Shan Juanzhi: "Just do as Brother Zheng said." After hesitating for a moment, he added: "Don't be too exaggerated."

Shan Juanzhi's hair is very soft and has good quality. It feels smooth to the touch. The stylist twisted a few strands of hair with his fingertips and asked him, "Do you want to try a different hair color?"

Except for the two years in the limited group, Shan Juanzhi has his original color all the other time. He has fair skin and hair as black as ink, which makes him look white.

Shan Juanzhi thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay."

Zheng Xixi looked through the finished products on display at the styling studio and selected a few with a wave of his hand. Shan Juanzhi finally chose a dark red color that was not too flashy. The stylist took a look at his choice and exclaimed, "That's great. You actually chose such a wild color."

Shan Juanzhi smiled at him in the mirror.

When they left the styling studio, Zheng Xixi took him to a private restaurant. They sat at a round table. Zheng Xixi carefully looked at Shan Juanzhi under the soft light and said, "A person's temperament is completely different when his hair color changes. Black hair is very obedient, but red hair is deadly."

Shan Juanzhi touched his hair and asked, "How does it look?"

"It's amazing. My heart is pounding for you." Zheng Xixi covered her chest and pretended to be hit.

Shan Juanzhi laughed briefly and returned to his usual cold demeanor. Then he heard Zheng Xixi say, "That's right, cool guy can't laugh. When we meet Lu Hechuan later, we must show our strength and crush him in all directions."

Hearing this name from Zheng Xixi's mouth, Shan Juanzhi was a little dazed. He lowered his eyelashes, drank a mouthful of porridge, and said "OK" in a low voice.

Zheng Xixi was still imagining the scene of meeting Lu Hechuan later and did not notice his mood change.

Lu Hechuan has been composing music since his debut on a talent show. He is very talented in composing music and writing lyrics. Zheng Xixi has met him several times due to work, but she just thinks it's a pity that he is willing to be a musician behind the scenes. His superior looks are better than most idols and actors, but no matter how willful a genius is, there are people who buy into it. Although Lu Hechuan has not appeared on the screen many times, the number of fans he has attracted is even comparable to that of popular traffic stars.

Zheng Xixi was confident that if she had this guy in her hands, she would be able to train him to the level of a singing king. Unfortunately, Lu Hechuan set up his own studio after the limited group disbanded and did not give him any chance.

He used to think that Lu Hechuan had personality and was focused on music, not like those people who pursue fame and fortune and were impetuous in this circle. But this evaluation changed after he knew that Lu Hechuan took on "Accidental Game".

Although he didn't know what Lu Hechuan's purpose was in taking on this drama, it didn't stop him from worrying that Lu Hechuan's joining would have a negative impact on the final product of "Accidental Game".

He was very optimistic about Shan Juanzhi, and every script he took was screened and carefully considered. In the early stage of casting for "Accidental Game", he took advantage of the relationship that Nian Xia was a partner and secured the main role for Shan Juanzhi early on. He wanted to use this big production to make Shan Juanzhi's career smoother, but who would have thought that Cheng Yaojin would show up halfway.

The director team of "Accidental Game" is Nian Xia's, but the main director Luo Qing is also a kind of maverick genius. All the movies he directed have been well received, but he has a weird temper and doesn't like to be instructed. If Shan Juanzhi had not starred in his "Overboard" and shined in a variety show that competes on IQ, and his acting skills and IQ were not considered by him, Zheng Xixi would not have been able to get Shan Juanzhi his current role so easily.

Because the script was written by the virtual world game company, the meeting was held in the game company's building.

On the way there after dinner, Zheng Xixi talked about Luo Qing, and wondered why such a discerning director would fall for Lu Hechuan, who had no acting experience.

Shan Juanzhi said from the back seat: "His major in college was acting."

"So there is this reason." Zheng Xixi understood, then became puzzled, "How do you know about his university life?"

The person in the back seat was silent for a while before replying, "I heard it by chance."

"Oh." Zheng Xixi didn't ask any more questions. "That makes sense. Luo Qing is a person who is very picky about the works. If the actor's acting skills are really not good enough, he won't choose him."

When they arrived at the company building in the virtual world, Zheng Xixi led Shan Juanzhi to the meeting room under the guidance of a man who claimed to be the president's assistant.

Standing in front of the conference room door, Zheng Xixi called the president's assistant: "Is everyone here?"

Shan Juanzhi also cast his gaze on his face, then looked away after two seconds and pinched his earlobe, his ear just facing the president's assistant.

The president's assistant replied, "Everyone is here. Director Luo, the screenwriter, and another actor are all waiting inside."

"Okay, thank you." Zheng Xixi smiled at the man, tilted her head and whispered to Shan Juanzhi, "After you go in, you must use your aura to suppress Lu Hechuan and let him know your determination not to let him throw you under the bus."

Shan Juanzhi: “…”

Shan Juanzhi: "I don't think he has this intention."

Zheng Xixi was angry at him for not fighting back: "People are evil, we have to be on guard!"

Shan Juanzhi: "Okay."

Before pushing the door, Shan Juanzhi took a deep breath. When the door opened, he quickly scanned the conference room and saw director Luo Qing, with whom he had worked before, screenwriter Li Wenlu, whom he had only seen a photo, and other staff members. The only one missing was the other leading actor.

Zheng Xixi had a warm smile on her face since she entered the room. She greeted a few people, looked around, and asked, "Hey, Assistant Lin said that everyone is here, why is Lu Hechuan not here?"

Shan Juanzhi was still standing at the door, pursing her lips and looking unhappy.

After Zheng Xixi asked this question, Luo Qing looked up and pointed to the door.

Shan Juanzhi lowered his eyes quietly, and suddenly felt someone reaching out to touch the strands of hair on the back of his neck.

He was startled and turned around to see Lu Hechuan's impeccable handsome face behind him, with a smile in his eyes: "I just went to the bathroom. Thank you, Manager Zheng, for your concern for me."

He leaned down slightly and said to Shan Juanzhi: "Long time no see, old teammate."

Shan Juanzhi turned away, made way for him to come in, and did not respond to Lu Hechuan's greeting.

On the contrary, Lu Hechuan kept his eyes on Shan Juanzhi who turned his head and glanced around, and said, "Aren't you going to say hello to my old teammate?"

Lu Hechuan's voice was very low, and only Shan Juanzhi, who was very close to him, could hear it clearly. Others in the meeting room were unaware of the conversation between the two. Seeing Shan Juanzhi's evasive attitude, Zheng Xixi came to the rescue: "Juanzhi, come and sit down."

Shan Juanzhi quickly sat down next to him and greeted Luo Qing and Li Wenlu.

Lu Hechuan, who wanted to tease someone but tried too hard and ended up scaring the person away, took a deep look at Shan Juanzhi who was sitting with his back to him, then sat down opposite Shan Juanzhi, with his long legs on the ground and his back leaning on the chair, and greeted Luo Qing and Li Wenlu in a casual manner.

Shan Juanzhi knew that Lu Hechuan's eyes were always on him, so he put on a stern face and tried hard not to move his gaze to the opposite side.

After everyone was present, Luo Qing began today's discussion. He first asked the two actors if they had tried the original game.

Shan Juanzhi said apologetically, "I'm sorry Director Luo, I've been filming on the set recently and haven't played yet."

Luo Qing nodded: "Working hard is a good thing." He turned to Lu Hechuan and asked: "What about you?"

Lu Hechuan was playing with the artificial flowers on the table. His slender fingers had distinct joints and the movement of twisting the flowers was very pleasing to the eye. When he heard the question, he first glanced at Shan Juanzhi's face before answering slowly, "No, I'm busy with work."

Luo Qing seemed to be very familiar with him. He sneered and said, "Why haven't I heard about your recent work arrangements?"

Lu Hechuan spread his hands, feeling not embarrassed even if he was exposed.

Luo Qing said: "I think your acting is good, but it's not at a level that satisfies me. If I can't see your sincerity before filming starts, I will change you even if it's officially announced."

After he said this, the atmosphere in the conference room became solemn. Shan Juanzhi finally couldn't help but look at Lu Hechuan, only to find that this man was also staring at him. He noticed Shan Juanzhi's gaze and chuckled.

Shan Juanzhi turned around and felt annoyed that this man was still unreasonable after all these years.

A normal person would be diligent and conscientious after hearing Luo Qing's words, but this person not only showed no remorse, but also deserted to watch him. After so many years, he is still as wanton as ever.

Under the gaze of everyone in the room, Lu Hechuan finally sat up straight and said, "I think Director Luo is right. Since you have made a request to me, that is, you believe that I can do better, then I will definitely try my best to meet your requirements. It's just that I don't have any actor friends who can provide me with any help in acting, so, can you let Shan Juanzhi--"

"No!" Zheng Xixi interrupted him directly, forced a dry laugh, and looked at Luo Qing, "We in Juanzhi still have to film during this period, so I'm afraid we don't have much time to help Musician Lu."

He pronounced the words with great emphasis, and after hearing it, Lu Hechuan curled his lips and smiled, his eyes resting on Shan Juanzhi's profile.

After watching for a few seconds, I couldn't help but mutter to myself.

How did this person grow up to suit his preferences in every way? How come he looks whiter and more pleasing to the eye after not seeing him for a few years?
