"Hello everyone, I'm Jiang Yan, and I play the role of Lin Shuangshuang."

"Strictly ordered, money is needed."

"Hello everyone, my name is You Qing, I play Wei Qiu in the play, please take care of me!"

When everyone introduced themselves one by one, Jiang Yan was poked on the shoulder twice. But she knew who was sitting next to her, so she pretended to listen to others very seriously and didn't want to pay any attention to Yan Zhao.

Yan Zhao poked the other person several times but he didn't turn around. He slammed the table in anger and said, "Hey! Can you please pay attention to me?"

……

For a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the two of them. Jiang Yan held his forehead with one hand and smiled, "Excuse me, is there anything I can help you with?"

Yan Zhao first waved his hand impatiently to tell everyone not to focus on him, then approached Jiang Yan and asked curiously, "Hey, did you enter the entertainment industry to experience disaster?"

Jiang Yan: “?”

Yan Zhao lowered his voice, with an inexplicable excitement in his voice, "I see that you were kidnapped and solved the case. Hey, you are not an undercover agent! The kind who came to the entertainment industry to collect evidence and then catch everyone in one fell swoop!"

Jiang Yan couldn't understand where this magical idea came from, and looked at him with some sympathy, "It's a pity for you... to be an actor."

"Do you think so too?" Yan Zhao shook his head in a cocky manner. "A person as outstanding as me must be good at everything. Acting is just one of my many developments."

"Ah...haha." Jiang Yan's face wrinkled into a ball, and he laughed awkwardly and turned away again.

Just at this moment, the introductions were over and the actors began to read their lines one by one.

Yan Zhao plays a college student from a middle-class family who was admitted to Yuanming University with the highest score in the city. He is the official partner of the heroine.

It is very difficult to let an arrogant rich second generation play an introverted academic master. It would be fine if his acting skills were good, but...

"Please ask for a leave of absence from my afternoon class. I'm going to work part-time at a coffee shop."

Yan Zhao recited the lines on the paper word for word, and his pronunciation was more accurate than when he read from the Chinese textbook.

The director opened his mouth and seemed to want to say something, but in the end he didn't dare to say anything accusatory.

"Alas." Jiang Yan felt very tired when she thought about cooperating with such a person. She tried to correct the mistake and started one-on-one teaching. "This sentence is relatively gentle and helpless. It is a request, not an order."

"Did I read it wrong?" Yan Zhao read it again according to her instructions. "Please ask for a leave of absence for my afternoon class. I want to work part-time at a coffee shop."

Jiang Yan blinked. Even though her acting skills were not good, she was able to understand what was said.

It can be considered an advantage.

After the script reading, the director suggested a team dinner, using the drinking culture to enhance everyone's bonding.

Everyone present was an adult, so there was nothing to worry about, so they all agreed.

As the leading actress, Jiang Yan had to go, so she asked Tan Xiaoyun to go back first and bring Zhao Ke to pick her up at nine o'clock in the evening.

There were eleven people in total who went with us, all of them were main actors.

As soon as the director arrived at the restaurant, he ordered two cases of beer and two cases of liquor. "Oh, I'll say a few words first."

He raised his glass to the crowd, "Our play has a low budget, but the script is definitely a good one! Those outside who don't like it have no vision, but there is no shortage of people with vision in this world!

Our Young Master Yan is my... no! Everyone's benefactor!"

Yan Zhao waved his hands arrogantly, "You are too modest, I just have a lot of money."

At this moment, Jiang Yan really wanted to ask the director how much money it would take to become an investor. She might not be able to bear it for much longer.

"Not much to say, it's all in the wine!"

After the director finished speaking, everyone started to eat. Among the people at the table, only Jiang Yan and You Qing had no wine in their glasses.

The two looked at each other, with a sense of mutual admiration.

Yan Zhao kept hearing the director's flattery in his ears. He listened with great interest at first, but gradually he became bored and switched seats with the second male lead actor to sit next to Jiang Yan.

"Hey, have a drink."

As he said this, Yan Zhao poured the wine in his glass into Jiang Yan's glass and signaled with his eyes that she should toast him.

Faced with such rude behavior, Jiang Yan did not get angry but laughed instead, propping up her chin with one hand and looking at him, "Xiao Yan...how old are you this year?"

Yan Zhao didn't like her address, but he still replied unhappily, "I've only been eighteen for two months, why are you asking this?"

"Nothing, I just suddenly found out that our elders had some relationship, but it's just that they are not related in our generation." Jiang Yan smiled charmingly, "Well, I am your cousin."

Jiang Yan was so happy when talking about this. After the list of participants was posted online, Bai Wenyao contacted her, hoping that Jiang Yan could become a breakthrough to ease the relationship between the two families.

The Bai family and the Yan family had some minor grievances in the previous generation. Jiang Yan's grandmother and Yan Zhao's grandfather were siblings. At that time, the Bai family was unknown in the imperial capital. After the woman married into the Bai family, she received a lot of bonuses from her father-in-law's family. Later, the two divorced due to emotional discord and never had any contact again. Bai Wenyao was also raised by the man. Since then, the Bai family began to decline until Bai Wenyao married Jiang Ying.

Come to think of it, the Bai family's tradition of making money through women has been passed down from generation to generation.

"Do you still want me to toast you now, cousin?"

Yan Zhao didn't know that he and Jiang Yan had such a relationship, and he felt a little awkward holding the wine glass. The bad taste on Jiang Yan's face made him hold his breath in his chest, and he stood up angrily, making a rustling sound on the chair.

"Get off!"

The second male lead looked at the person who came back in confusion. He didn't dare to get angry and could only give up his seat to Yan Zhao again.

Yan Zhao, who returned to Cai Hongpi's side, immediately confirmed the matter to his family. Yan Yuanqing and Bai Wenyao were childhood friends. Even though they had not seen each other for many years, they still had childhood feelings for each other. They had not taken the initiative to contact each other because of their parents.

Now that the previous generation is basically gone, there are fewer and fewer relatives around him. Yan Yuanqing thinks it would be a good idea to reestablish some blood ties, so he told his son to control his overbearing temper and get along well with that cousin.

It was difficult for Yan Zhao to describe his feelings at the moment. He originally came out to have some fun and pick up a girlfriend, but who would have known that in such a large crew, there was only one person he considered acceptable, Jiang Yan? And who would have known that this acceptable target would turn out to be his cousin in the blink of an eye.

All in all, he regretted it very much.

Especially now.

Yan Zhao had been holding a pen for several minutes, and there were still only four big words on the notebook.

Biography...

"Ahhh, I've never been so serious when writing a self-criticism!" Yan Zhao threw his pen and yelled at the only person in the room, "You come and help me write it!"

He is here to play, not to write an essay!

The assistant picked up the pen helplessly and handed it to him with both hands, coaxing, "Ms. Jiang Yan said that you must write it yourself, otherwise I will dictate it, so that the handwriting will not be exposed."

Yan Zhao snorted coldly and got into writing posture, "Speak!"
