After Being Blackened All Over the Internet, I Ruled the Military Variety Chapter 137: Only Focused on Whether Meals are Provided

Even Jiang Lingxi and Tong Yue, who were usually composed, could sense the disapproval in She Man and Lin Xuefei’s eyes, not to ntion the sowhat oblivious Lu Zhengzheng.

Tong Yue found so consolation in having a backup role, while Jiang Lingxi just sipped her water calmly.

No need to explain, the final results will reveal everything.

As it approached exactly nine o’clock, a slight commotion arose in the hall.

Firstly, because the audition was about to begin, and secondly, due to the arrival of a heavyweight figure.

As soon as Xu Qingi appeared, even though she only wore a low-key ink-colored long dress and her hair was simply pinned up with a green sandalwood hairpin, she still drew the majority of attention from the audience.

Even She Man stood up, looking at the graceful and powerful figure not far away, hiding her apprehension deep in her eyes.

However, before anyone familiar could greet her, a staff mber with a na badge hurried out from the inner arena, "Ms. Xu, Director Wei invites you to rest in the inner area."

Everyone could only watch as Xu Qingi followed the staff mber into the inner area ahead of ti, this special treatnt made quite a few people secretly envious.

She Man sat down again, looking at Jiang Lingxi, wanting to say sothing but stopping.

With Director Wei valuing Xu Qingi so much, getting the lead female role was probably a certainty.

Among the many actors present, perhaps only Jiang Lingxi would dare to audition for the lead female role.

One could only say she’s truly fearless.

While sighing, she heard Lin Xuefei beside her speak, "I heard quite a few people online call Ms. Xu the Green Empress. Her appearance just now really gave off an aura that subdued the entire room, such a strong presence!"

Though it was clear Lin Xuefei mainly intended to mock Jiang Lingxi for aiming too high, the high praise still amused her slightly, though she only managed a slight smirk.

After Lin Xuefei spoke, she looked towards Jiang Lingxi, only to find that she didn’t even raise her eyebrows as if she hadn’t heard a word, leaving Lin Xuefei sowhat disinterested.

She simply lowered her head to continue reading information on Princess Jin’an on her phone.

Jiang Lingxi was courting disaster, but she was hopeful to succeed in the audition in one stroke.

Just the thought of being able to act alongside Xu Qingi, and play sisters in the drama, stirred her excitent.

Jiang Lingxi took out her vibrating phone, seeing a ssage from Tong Yue, and couldn’t help but glance up at her.

Tong Yue gestured at her phone to indicate she should read the ssage.

Tong Yue: "Maybe let it go, it seems like they’ve already pre-selected Xu Qingi for the lead female role. Auditioning might be pointless."

Jiang Lingxi typed a reply: "As long as the production team hasn’t explicitly stated that the lead role is Xu Qingi’s, I still have a chance."

Earlier, when Xu Qingi entered, everyone watched her, including herself.

The other’s presence was indeed strong, arguably the most imposing among the many people present.

Even so, she would not give in.

Tong Yue read Jiang Lingxi’s reply and couldn’t help biting her nail.

When did she ever know this girl to be so stubborn?

She thought for a mont and then typed: "How about this, you try out for Wei Fuying’s role first. If Director Wei is satisfied, you can then express your interest in trying out for the lead role. At least secure one role first."

She thought if she couldn’t even get the Wei Fuying role, she shouldn’t even try for the lead, and just walk away without auditioning.

After reading the ssage, Jiang Lingxi put her phone away, giving Tong Yue an almost imperceptible nod.

Only then did Tong Yue breathe a sigh of relief and couldn’t help putting her hands together, hoping to secure a role after all the preparations made these past days!

A short while later, a bell rang, invigorating everyone.

It was nine o’clock, and the auditions began!

The actors wearing number badges stood up, taking a deep breath, and walked slowly through the now-open doors of the inner arena under the watchful eyes of others.

As the door closed with a boom, the hall remained silent for a mont before murmurs began to rise.

"Being first for the audition isn’t good either, the pressure is imnse."

"Wanna guess how long the last one will be inside?"

"I auditioned for Director Wei’s crew once before, and I rember the shortest ti was less than three minutes, generally around ten minutes."

"I blindly guess eight minutes."

Soon after, the inner arena door opened again, and many people subconsciously checked the ti on their phones.

Six and a half minutes.

Then they glanced at the girl who just walked out, but neither excitent nor disappointnt could be seen on her face, instead, it revealed a complex expression.

Imdiately afterward, what seed to be her agent and assistant hurried over, ushering her away without a word.

She Man withdrew her gaze, "Why does it feel kind of strange, did she succeed or not?"

Lin Xuefei was equally uncertain, frowning and shaking her head, "I couldn’t tell either."

Jiang Lingxi watched as number two entered, glancing at her own badge labeled fifty-six, she figured, at this pace, it would be afternoon before it was her turn.

She curiously asked, "Does this place provide lunch?"

She Man: "..."

Lin Xuefei: "..."

Isn’t your focus a bit off?

*

Ti ticked away, with more and more people going in to audition, while those still outside waiting grew restless, "What’s the audition process like in there?"

The expressions on everyone’s faces when they co out are so ambiguous, it’s killing their curiosity!

The person held back could only smile wryly and shake his head, "Director Wei said, it’s confidential." Then he sighed, "Don’t think too much, just be well-prepared!"

This was worse than not asking, the answer only made them more anxious.

Approaching noon, it was finally the turn of number 36.

She Man took a deep breath and stood up.

Lin Xuefei clenched her fist, "Go for it, Sister Man, may you win right from the start!"

She Man smiled, "Thanks for your blessings."

Once she left, there wasn’t anyone left to diffuse the tension at the table. After exchanging a look with Jiang Lingxi, Lin Xuefei got up and left, going off to gather information from familiar actors.

Lu Zhengzheng let out a long breath as she left, "Finally gone, she doesn’t know how annoying she is."

The kind that liked to beat around the bush and satirize people was the worst.

If Jiang Xiyu was the first most annoying one before, Lin Xuefei now easily took second place.

Jiang Lingxi tapped her forehead lightly with a knuckle, "Watch your tongue, many eyes are upon you."

Lu Zhengzheng covered her head and obediently nodded.

Tong Yue, seeing Jiang Lingxi scold her on her behalf, didn’t say anything further, "She Man should be without surprises."

If even an Actress couldn’t secure a third female role, Director Wei’s requirents would be exceptionally high.

She Man ca out after more than ten minutes. Tong Yue beca more certain at heart.

Lin Xuefei saw She Man exit under Lu Zhengzheng’s discreet glare. Her face showed she wanted to ask but dared not.

Instead, She Man smiled graciously, "I can only say the audition is very rigorous, the rest I can’t disclose. Now I’ll head back and wait for the notice, you two do your best."

With that, she left the hall with her agent and assistant, smiling brightly.

Lin Xuefei watched her leave, "Seems Sister Man is quite confident."

Jiang Lingxi remained indifferent, turning to Tong Yue, "It’s almost twelve thirty, looks like we’re not getting lunch here. Should we have Zhengzheng ask if we can go out for a al and co back?"

She worried that upon leaving, they wouldn’t be allowed back in at the door.

Lin Xuefei: "..."

A foodie indeed? Even in this tense mont, you’re still thinking about eating!
