Who is the white moonlight these days? We are just following the plot

"Why hasn't Director Yang called me yet? The opening ceremony has already passed." Qin Miao kept shaking her feet, and she had long lost the calmness she had an hour ago.

"Sister Miaomiao, don't worry. Who else can play this role besides you?"

The young assistant looked at Qin Miao's face and comforted her.

However, such words cannot be believed at all.

Qin Miao pinched her palms and shook her head, "No, no, Director Yang is very particular about ceremony. He set the time at 10:18 and it won't change. Now, it's already 12 o'clock."

"How about... calling Mr. Ji?" the assistant suggested.

Qin Miao was so assertive this time because she had recently hooked up with Ji Minghe. Ji Minghe had a wide network of contacts and knew many high-ranking figures in the film and television industry. Qin Miao wanted to use Ji Minghe's connections to enter the TV drama industry.

She thought she could do whatever she wanted because she had someone to back her. She had been planning to raise the bar without permission for a long time.

But I didn't expect that it would directly trigger Director Yang's anger.

"Go down and see what's going on at the scene."

"Ah? I..." The young assistant was a little embarrassed. She had been with Qin Miao for two years and was very familiar with Director Yang's crew. If she showed up to inquire at this time, she would definitely be met with cold shoulders and accusations.

Qin Miao often pushed such embarrassing tasks to her assistant.

"Go quickly, do you want to do it?" Qin Miao widened her eyes, her facial muscles distorted from exerting too much force.

The young assistant was frightened and hurriedly opened the car door and got out as if escaping.

Downstairs in the hotel, the stage and altar set up for the opening ceremony were there, and there were red firecracker confetti and golden colored paper on the ground.

The incense burner was filled with incense sticks, and the ashes were falling, indicating that half of the incense was burned.

Oh no! The assistant felt a pang of anxiety.

She had seen this scene many times, which meant that the opening ceremony was successfully completed.

Is it possible to hold a launch ceremony without a female lead?

The young assistant avoided glances and found an inconspicuous place to stand.

At that moment, a staff member came over to the assistant to move a chair. The assistant stopped him and asked, "Excuse me, is the opening ceremony of this crew over?"

"Yeah, it's over a long time ago."

"Then...then this play can still be held even if the heroine is not present?"

The staff looked at her doubtfully: "Yes, of course she is. She is very beautiful."

This was like a bolt from the blue, and the assistant panicked.

"Who... who?"

"It's an internet celebrity named... Star. Oh, right, Star."

The young assistant felt like she was poured with a bucket of ice water from head to toe, and Qin Miao's role as the heroine was taken away by someone!

She looked up uncomfortably at the banquet hall on the fifth floor. Through the huge glass windows, the assistant saw people toasting each other with cups and glasses.

This is - the start-up dinner.

If Qin Miao hadn't raised the price, she would have been one of the stars, and the heroine who was the center of attention.

At this moment, the assistant's cell phone rang frantically.

Qin Miao couldn't wait any longer, she was eager to know the situation here.

"how's it going?"

"Sister Miaomiao... Director Yang... found a new female lead."

"what!"

In the banquet hall, Ji Xingyao and Shi Yubai sat together, with Wen Yuan on her right.

"Xingyao." Wen Yuan held the goblet between her fingers and shook it gently. She leaned back in her chair casually: "Do you want to act?"

"I don't know." Ji Xingyao shook her head blankly. She had never thought about it and had never studied acting professionally, so she was not sure if she could be the leading actress.

"Don't think about anything else. As long as you're willing, Director Yang will have no problem. I can ask the crew to suspend production and give you time to learn acting."

For Ji Xingyao, Wen Yuan didn't consider the cost, time, or connections at all. She had countless money to support her.

Ji Xingyao was very moved by these words, but she glanced at Shi Yubai who was standing calmly beside her. It was too unethical that Shi Yubai had successfully passed the interview and got the role, but he had to be implicated by her, a person with connections who used the backdoor, and was benched for no reason.

"I still..."

Before she finished speaking, Director Yang and the producer, along with the costume, prop, and lighting crews, toasted Wen Yuan.

"Come on, everyone, let's toast to President Wen and thank him for his strong support for our production. Without him, there would be no such show."

Wen Yuan was so tired of hearing the compliments at the table that she smiled and said, "Thank you, Director Yang. This drama still requires your attention. I'll leave my Star to you."

"Oh, no, Mr. Wen, Director Yang, I can't act. Please find other professional actors." Ji Xingyao couldn't openly take on the role of the heroine in front of these professionals. She was unsure and afraid of disappointing the efforts of so many people.

Although Director Yang and Ji Xingyao are not close friends, he likes her personality very much. He said:

"Who says we have to have professional actors? We're not that particular in the skit industry. Come on, Yubai, tell me, can Star play the female lead?"

"Yes." He gave a clear and crisp affirmation. Shi Yubai was young, and his voice had the clarity that was unique to boys of this age.

Ji Xingyao looked at him in surprise. She didn't expect Shi Yubai to say that.

He is a professional actor, and his acting opponent turned out to be an outsider with zero acting skills. Logically, he should be the one who is most angry.

Ji Xingyao couldn't tell whether what he said was just a polite remark or the truth.

In this kind of situation, truth and falsehood are mixed together and cannot be fully trusted.

"Haha, look, even Yubai agrees. Star, don't underestimate yourself. I think you can do it."

Everyone looked at Ji Xingyao, waiting for her answer, including Shi Yubai beside her.

"Then I'll think about it again." Ji Xingyao did not agree immediately. She was a little confused and needed some time to think about it.

"Ok, I will wait for you."

After Director Yang left, Wen Yuan said to her, "I'll find you an acting teacher."

Ji Xingyao laughed helplessly: "I used to stay up all night studying a week before the exam, and you always scolded me for cramming. I never thought that acting could be like this."

Wen Yuan raised his eyelids: "What's wrong? When have you ever failed to cram? Not only did you not fail the course, you even got a scholarship."

"How can it be the same? Every profession has its own specialization."

"I believe you."

"......." Ji Xingyao wanted to refute, but couldn't find the words.

At this time, Wen Yuan's phone rang. Looking at the caller, Wen Yuan frowned slightly and stood up: "I'm going to answer the phone."

The banquet hall was full of people, and Wen Yuan came to the empty window.

"Hey."

"Mr. Wen, it's been two days since we last met. How are you?" Gao Yan's voice was slightly hoarse, with a barely perceptible hint of weariness.

"pretty good."

"Are you free tonight? Can we have dinner together?"

Originally, Wen Yuan was going to return to Hai City after the dinner, but if Ji Xingyao joined the crew, there would be a lot of things for her to deal with, so she couldn't go back for the time being.

"I'm on a business trip."

"Where did you go?" Gao Yan's voice became tense and anxious.

He hadn't slept for a whole day and night, and stayed with Wen Xiaochuan all night. At this moment, there were red bloodshot eyes.

Wen Yuan is not going back to Hai City today, but he hasn't seen her for two whole days.
