Although Wei Manman has woken up, she suffered very serious injuries and cannot recover in a short ti. Mu Nan has no choice but to find a new actress to play Bai Niangzi.
The new Bai Niangzi is called Xu Ruoxuan, and she has never acted in a film before, making her a complete newcor. However, she has a powerful backer who forcefully pushed her into the cast.
Because of this, Mu Nan complained to Jiang Nuo: "Girls these days, none of them know how to cherish themselves. They throw themselves at powerful n as soon as they see them. Damn it! If I had as much power as that guy, I definitely wouldn’t let this kind of woman into my crew..."
He swore that once this film was finished, he would blacklist this woman.
Jiang Nuo was a bit surprised: "Isn’t your backing already quite strong?"
Don’t be fooled by the fact that Mu Nan’s dad is just a director, his mother cos from a prestigious family. In this circle, many people, whether out of respect for his dad or his mom, have to give him so face.
Moreover, Mu Nan grew up in a circle of wealthy kids; none of his buddies are above him?!
Mu Nan shook his head: "Do you think I want this? Often walking by the riverside, how can one avoid getting their shoes wet? This ti, this backing is stronger than mine, can’t do anything about it."
Jiang Nuo pondered: "It seems we all need to be careful."
In the entertainnt industry, Mu Nan is considered well-connected. If even he can’t refuse such a powerful figure, then Jiang Nuo, who has no background as an "orphan", must be cautious. It’s fine if he offends soone, but he shouldn’t drag his wife into it.
As the two continued to chat, a staff mber ca over to inform Mu Nan that Xu Ruoxuan had arrived.
Mu Nan was a bit annoyed: "What? Does this young lady expect to go greet her?"
Having soone forcibly brought in was already displeasing, and on the first day of filming, she was putting on airs. Of course he wasn’t happy. He said he wouldn’t go, choosing instead to laze in Jiang Nuo’s lounge, sipping tea made by Jiang Nuo’s wife and enjoying snacks, living a leisurely life.
After dismissing the staff, Mu Nan said to Jiang Nuo: "The movie’s only a third done, and I’m already worried."
"Worried about what?"
Jiang Nuo thought Mu Nan was worried about whether the movie would be finished, but Mu Nan said: "I’m worrying about where I’ll find such good food after the movie finishes."
Jiang Nuo was speechless: "You weren’t picky before you ate what my wife made."
"That’s because I hadn’t tasted it yet. Once I did, I realized there’s such delicious food in the world. It’s like ’succeeding because of you, failing because of you, Jiang Nuo’. If not for you, I wouldn’t have tasted such good food, and because of you, after tasting it, I don’t want to eat anything else."
"So what do you want to do? Have my wife go to your place as a chef?"
"That’d be great! If you’re willing, I’d worship her like a goddess, and she wouldn’t have to do anything except cook three als a day..."
"Nonsense! That’s my wife. I can’t even bear to have her work; yet you want her to serve you? Dream on!" To know, his wife is like a Fairy descending from the skies; being able to eat her cooking is already a blessing, being this greedy is too much.
Hmph! The idea of preparing so beef jerky for Mu Nan after the film ends—canceled.
Mu Nan absolutely didn’t know that just teasing a bit resulted in the ’retraction’ of the beef jerky he should’ve received. Otherwise, he would definitely regret it.
Wuwu... My goddess-branded beef jerky!
While they were chatting, they heard a voice outside: "Is it here?"
It was like a nightingale’s gentle cry, lingering in the ears.
The two wondered whose voice it was when the staff mber from before said: "Miss Xu, Director Mu is discussing roles with Brother Jiang. Perhaps you can et with Director Mu later?"
"It’s okay, I won’t disturb them." The pleasant voice politely insisted, showing her determination. On her first day at the crew, she naturally wanted to greet the director.
The staff wanted to say more, but the lounge door opened, and a woman entered. She was dressed in a white ancient robe, draped with a light gauze over her head, looking like a classical beauty from an ink painting or a Yaochi Fairy descending from the ninth heaven.
She moved with graceful steps, her skirt fluttered slightly. As she walked, the ornants at her waist swayed gently among the gauze. Her fingers were as white and slender as if sculpted, her delicate jade-like hands, above which was her naturally A flowing dark hair that resembled ink. The dark hair was covered with a layer of light gauze, from which pearls and jade fell behind her ears, accentuating them to a jewel-like radiance as if they were glowing.
Notably, with a pearl on her ear, her small face appeared as fair as snow, her eyes shimring and bright, both clear and affectionate. As she looked at you, it seed she gazed straight into your heart, as if it was a clear spring carrying a touch of tender charm.
"This little girl, Xu Ruoxuan, greets Director Mu and Brother Jiang." As she approached, she placed her hands on her waist and perford an ancient bow towards the two.
Mu Nan hadn’t expected that the woman forced into the cast by such a formidable backing would look like this. Without any ntal preparation, he was dumbfounded. Jiang Nuo’s wife carried a celestial aura, and now there was soone even more exquisite and beautiful, also resembling a Fairy?!
Coming back to his senses, he saw she was still holding the half-crouch, so he quickly stepped forward to help her up: "Get up, get up... You’re too polite, I was discussing sothing with Jiang Nuo, so I didn’t co out. I didn’t expect you’d co so quickly; had I known, I would’ve picked you up..."
Mu Nan admitted he was a bit "biased by face", but he was a person of principle and wouldn’t disregard past grievances just to greet soone because they were called a beauty.
Of course, if this beauty were his girlfriend, it would be a different story.
As Mu Nan thought this, he couldn’t help but glance at Xu Ruoxuan a few more tis.
Honestly, this woman with the Fairy-like temperant is genuinely beautiful. In comparison, Wei Manman seed like a fake and inferior product.
He wasn’t saying Wei Manman wasn’t good enough, but explaining the issue of temperant is hard. It’s like comparing Bai Qiangwei and Bai igui; both are white and similar, yet they are different flowers.
It’s hard to say whether Bai Qiangwei or Bai igui is better, but Mu Nan currently desired Bai igui.
"How could I let the director personally pick up? I’m rely here to play a role I’ve long admired, and it’s even ’snatched’ from soone else. Just as long as the director doesn’t make things difficult for later, that’s all I ask..." Xu Ruoxuan had such an ethereal aura, she doesn’t seem like soone who would joke, but her tone and deanor strongly suggested she was joking, trying to be friendly.
