Chapter 30: Stunning

“Great!”

Director Zheng suddenly clapped his hands in praise. Although the third female character in the script was a maid, she was a proud and unyielding person who would not allow others to trample on her.

Yu Wan, on the other hand, made people feel that she was a little weak and lacked a bit of pride.

Jiang Zhi’s expression, movements, and temperament were extremely compatible with the third female character.

“Director Zheng, this was not written in the script!”

Jiang Lu climbed up from the ground in a sorry state. She wanted to tear Jiang Zhi into pieces, but her face only showed worry.

“Sister, would it affect the script if you ad-lib so casually?”

Director Zheng read the script more than ten times before looking at Jiang Lu.

He was a shrewd person. Although Yan Zhang had secretly told him to take care of Jiang Lu, it was Jiang Zhi who held on to the position of Mrs. Yan.

In addition, behind Jiang Zhi was the young master of the capital circle, Cheng Yi. He was someone who could shake the entire imperial capital with just a stomp of his foot.

He knew better than anyone what was more important.

However, Director Zheng would not directly offend Jiang Lu. He only smiled and said, “It doesn’t matter. We can consider it to be within reasonable limits.”

Jiang Lu felt indignant in her heart. She admitted that her acting skills were better than Jiang Zhi’s, but she had just been ruthlessly slapped in the face.

An obscure look flashed across her eyes. Jiang Lu smiled and said seemingly unintentionally, “I’m just worried that if everyone is influenced by my sister and changes the script at the last minute, it would bring trouble to the production team.”

Director Zheng pretended not to take her hint and gave her a thumbs up. “Thank you for your hard work, Jiang Lu.”

Jiang Lu’s expression froze. She forced a smile and quickly entered the rest tent.

After sending Jiang Lu away, Director Zheng looked at Jiang Zhi as if he had found a treasure.

“Have you studied acting before?”

He asked tentatively. Jiang Zhi lowered her eyes and looked at her fingers. “I have some experience.”

In her previous life, she had suppressed her heart and acted according to the script of a good wife and mother for her entire life. Unfortunately, she did not have a good ending.

Director Zheng raised his eyebrows in surprise and was a little puzzled.

“Then why didn’t you become an actress? With your talent, it’s a pity to be a manager.”

Jiang Zhi was amused by him. “I don’t have any plans in this regard for the time being. At the moment, I just want to lead my artistes well.”

Director Zheng tried to persuade her a few more times but was rejected tactfully by Jiang Zhi. He could only regretfully give up.

Seeing that the timing was just right, Jiang Zhi’s heart skipped a beat. She asked, “Director Zheng, does the production team still need additional actors?”

Director Zheng’s gaze instantly became a little strange as he looked at Jiang Zhi suspiciously.

Jiang Zhi immediately understood his concerns and added with a laugh, “It’s not that he wants an important role. That person is also a newcomer to Star Glory.”

“He doesn’t have much experience. Just give him a random role and let him gain some experience.”

It was just an extra’s role. It would save the crew the trouble of finding another one.

Director Zheng was happy to sell Jiang Zhi a favor. He appointed a role for the “Young prince of debauchery” and indicated for the person to enter the crew directly. There was no need for an audition.

Young Prince of Debauchery?

Jiang Zhi nodded her chin gently. Her eyebrows were slightly curved. Lu Mian was tall and had a noble temperament. He was in line with the image of a prince.

As for being a romantic…

Well, he seemed to be quite a romantic as well.

Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, Jiang Zhi rang Lu Mian up, who picked up immediately as if he had been waiting for her.

“You finally remembered me.”

Jiang Zhi deliberately ignored the accusation in Lu Mian’s tone and said in a businesslike manner, “We’ve talked about the role. You’ll join the team next Tuesday.”

She had thought that Lu Mian would be happy, but she heard him speak in an even lower tone.

“Two more days.”

Jiang Zhi did not understand. Lu Mian let out a low sigh, and his tone was rarely serious.

“Jiang Zhi, I was wrong.”

“I overestimated myself. I thought I could last three days without seeing you.”

“But I can’t even last a minute.”

His mellow and elegant voice slowly glided past, and it was so irritating that her eardrums felt numb.

“Jiang Zhi, what kind of drug did you give me?”

Jiang Zhi’s ears were slightly red. She pursed her lips and felt indignant at his accusation.

“I didn’t…”

A low laugh came from the phone. The words of love were like poison wrapped in sugar. “Then why am I so obsessed with you?

“I want to see you.

“Every minute, every second, every moment, I want to be with you.”

“Shut up!”

Feeling the heat on her face, Jiang Zhi was both embarrassed and angry. “Do you still want to come over?”

“Of course.”

Lu Mian answered in a low voice, his voice like a cello.

“I’m here for you, Jiang Zhi.”

The last sentence completely made Jiang Zhi’s heart race.
