A voice followed the list, "Hannah Winter, your turn."
After speaking, the staff mber went straight in.
In the corner, Hannah stood up and casually removed her sunglasses from her face, revealing a strikingly exquisite face without any obstruction.
Everyone watched Hannah enter the hall before they ca back to their senses.
Soone mumbled, "Just now... Hannah Winter was without makeup, wasn’t she?"
There was no response, but everyone seed to have their answer.
Even bare-faced, she was beautiful enough to provoke envy; it seed that the competition for the lead female role was going to be fierce this ti.

Watching Hannah walk through the door, Richard Lee glanced at the man beside him who had been silent from the very beginning, laughing as he teased, "Your little girlfriend is here. If you feel like being lenient with her, I wouldn’t object."
"You’re the director. I’m just here to observe. I’ll only offer opinions on casting choices." The man’s gaze settled on the stage, he paused for a while before he said, "Besides, she’s not my girlfriend."
The man’s voice sounded particularly gentle and deep in the dim setting.
Richard laughed and waived his hand, "There’s been so much buzz about this on the internet, even I, who rarely pay attention to talent shows, can see that there’s sothing going on. You don’t have any thoughts on this? I see quite a few people speaking up for Hannah."
Jackie Qualls paused montarily, taking his gaze off the girl, and shook his head, "These situations are inevitable in this industry. Other than adapting, there’s nothing we can do."
"True." Director Lee sighed lightly, "According to her profile, Hannah is also a film school student. If her acting skill is passable, I wouldn’t mind giving her a role to try."
On stage.
Hannah was already discussing the role she wanted to audition for this ti.
On the side, a board listed the roles still to be determined for this try-out. A number underneath represented the amount of auditions, the higher the number, the more people had auditioned.
The male lead was already confird as Jackie Qualls, the remaining roles were female lead, supporting female, and the villain, among others.
Up until now, thirty-one people had auditioned for the female lead, but none had been successful.
As for the role of the Demon Clan princess, the villain, only two people had auditioned so far.
Probably just because these little-known, aspiring actors were out of better options—they wouldn’t choose this role otherwise.
First, very few could possibly et the script’s demands for a gorgeous appearance for such a notoriously destructive character. Then, the character was unlikable to begin with as she spent most of her ti ddling with the main couple’s relationship, even going so far as to disguise herself as the female lead to seduce the male lead.
In short, the character was challenging to pull off.
Below the stage, Director Lee adjusted the microphone beside him and asked, "What role are you auditioning for today?"
Hannah looked over. Her gaze inadvertently swept over the figure sitting in the shadowy corner, her lips parted slightly, and she pronounced two words, "Chill."
Chill, the na of the Demon Clan princess in the script.
The beauty of peach blossoms in full bloom couldn’t even hold a candle to her.
Upon hearing this, Director Lee’s expression beca sowhat complicated as he looked over respectively at the ever-silent man beside him.
Jackie Qualls also did not understand Hannah’s intention, only offering rare advice, "Perhaps, don’t you think the lead female role would suit you better?"
He didn’t move, his face unclear under the darkness, were it not for soone deliberately reminding him, probably no one entering would recognize that the man sitting there was Jackie Qualls, the renowned actor.
If it had been any of the previous auditioning actors who received an endorsent from Jackie, they would have been elated, regardless of whether they were suited for the role or not, accepting it as a decree from the Grand Master.
