Chapter 47: Firing Qi Le
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Xia Ning stopped and looked to Qiao Yu beside her. Was he talking to her?
Qi Le also stood where she was and looked at Qiao Yu, puzzled. Those words should not be meant for her.
President Qiao had no reason to fire her. A female lead with a lot of gossip like Xia Ning should be the one whom he hated. So he must have been talking to Xia Ning.
The rest of the people were also looking at Qi Le and Xia Ning. Who on earth was President Qiao talking to?
It could be possible for either because President Qiao did not seem happy with Xia Ning earlier. But, President Qiao did diss Young Master Meng for Xia Ning just now.
”President Qiao, Xia Ning has good acting skills…” Director Li spoke out of the blue.
Qi Le heard that and felt happy. Even Director Li was putting in good words for Xia Ning. It seemed like he noticed President Qiao's discontent for Xia Ning. She felt relieved immediately and said with a smile, ”Yeah, President Qiao. Our Xia Ning is very hard-working. Director Li really likes her, otherwise, how can a newcomer like her be the female lead? Although she is boring and annoys people…”
”I always thought Director Li was a serious and rigorous person. But it seems like that is not the case.” Qiao Yu frowned and looked at Director Li.
Qi Le stopped talking and laughed in her head. It looked like President Qiao heard her. If he fired Xia Ning, it would be her chance. If a nameless actress like Xia Ning could be the female lead, she could as well!
Director Li's expression was not looking good. He frowned. ”I don't blame you for that, President Qiao. It was my mistake. Qi Le as an actress does not have outstanding acting skills nor dedication. She likes to nitpick and is not really suitable for this show. I realized that just now, and that's why I said Xia Ning has done a good job. If she has someone like Qi Le to play the supporting role, it might affect her performance. Therefore, I am in favor of President Qiao's idea.”
