56 A Punch on Cotton (1/2)
Ning Xi was going to shoot in a dance scene today, so her costume would be lighter than the palace costume from yesterday, which was a relief.
When she entered the dressing room, she was surprised to see Jia Qingqing.
She had thought Jia Qingqing would no longer be coming.
Jia Qingqing had failed the audition for the second female lead, but the director had invited her to play the third female lead Princess Xian.
While the third female lead would also bring disaster to the country, it was a smaller role than Ning Xi’s. Furthermore, she would be tortured terribly by Ning Xi in the movie.
Although her manager had accepted the invitation on Jia Qingqing’s behalf, she was very unsatisfied and had not attended the opening ceremony. It had even been rumored that she would refuse the role.
Ning Xi guessed that she had come obediently after hearing that the movie had received a large additional investment.
It was a huge project of one hundred million after all.
Jia Qingqing was getting her makeup done when she saw Ning Xi in the mirror. She stared at her with cold contempt and undisguised hatred.
Like Ning Xueluo, she had a rich father, so she always behaved arrogantly and was unpopular on set. But her water army 1 was very skilled and had remade her image into an outspoken and straightforward person. They even gave her the title of No. 1 Beauty in the entertainment industry.
So of course she deeply hated Ning Xi, who had robbed both her role and fame.
”Hm, isn’t this our No. 1 Beauty in the entertainment industry? With so many rich sponsors supporting you, you still hang out in the dressing room with small fry like us?” Jia Qingqing sneered.
Ning Xi leisurely found a chair to sit on and began to read her script, completely unaffected.
She was the type of person who would wholeheartedly focus on work as soon as she arrived on set, and wouldn’t be affected by anything or anyone.
”Ning Xi, are you ignoring me?” Jia Qingqing dropped her comb with a clatter.
