Chapter 259 - Insecurity (1/2)
Elizabeth was still in a daze from what she just witnessed. She suddenly felt a strange tight feeling in her chest which she can't explain.
”Sis Li Zi?”
”Sis Li Zi?”
Elizabeth snaps back to her senses after hearing Liying calling her name a couple of times.
”Sis Li Zi, are you alright?” Liying worriedly asked, noticing the girl's expression was different from her usual expression. It was the first time she saw so much sorrow in her eyes.
”I'm fine, I just didn't expect Lady Zhao to be that amazing.”
Liying not knowing how Elizabeth's truly felt expressed her opinion. ”I know right, she was really amazing. I can now understand why all her movies always win an award…”
Whilst Liying continued to explain and praised Lady Zhao's achievement, leaving Elizabeth's mind to wander off again.
'That's right, mother films always won an award, this just means this movie would win an award no matter what, even if it means I don't do well.'
For some reason, Elizabeth felt unsure of herself and was feeling dejected. The feeling of insecurity was driving her nuts. She can't explain why her heart felt so unclear about the movie, a strange feeling of failure struck her.
”Sis Li Zi, you're up,” Liying said, snapping her back to her senses again.
”Wh-What?”
”The director said it's your turn.” Liying concernedly responded, detecting something strange about the girl.
Elizabeth hastily ran to the set with such heavy burdens on her shoulder, that she didn't even realize that the director has started filming already, yet she was completely in a missed. Everyone watched as Li Zi stood frozen in the middle clueless of what to do.
”Li Zi?”
”Li Zi...”
Elizabeth turned around to face everyone with such pale complexion. When she realized everyone was calling for her name, she snaps back to her senses, ”Director I'm sorry.”
”It's fine, are you alright?”
Since the director knew what happened last time, they worried that she might not be mentally prepared to work.
”I'm fine.”
When they started filming, for some reason everyone felt something was different from the way Li Zi performed. As if the special magic she brings to the movie was no longer there...
”Is Li Zi alright?”
”For some reason, Li Zi doesn't look too well.”
From a distance, the woman watched as her daughter played her role which such distress expression. Despite people didn't notice it since she kept her expression well and acted professionally in the end. It disappointed her to see how the girl was doing.
In the end, Li Zi was able to complete her part perfectly, but for Elder Director Mo and his son, it seems something was not right. They just keep it to themselves and avoiding worrying everyone.
Everyone was still on break since they all just finished lunch.
”Li Zi, Lady Zhao is looking for you,” said Lady Zhao's manager.
Of course, Lady Zhao team knew that Li Zi was her daughter, but since people didn't know that, they need to play their role and address her that way.
”What does she want?”
”She didn't say anything to why she wishes to speak with you.”
Elizabeth sighed heavily, realizing what's about to happen
Seeing it was only them, the manager expression soften, ”Young Princess, please don't worry. I'm sure Weiwei just wishes to speak with you.”
”I know...” she sighed heavily again.
By the stream stood a single tree, there the woman was gazing at the marvelous gingko tree.
”Lady Zhao.”
”Darling, you're here,” Lady Zhao smiled whilst continuously gazing at the tree
”Is something wrong?”
