Chapter 508 - It’s Boring to Get the First Female Lead Just Like That (2/2)

Lu Jingqi picked up his coat before he nodded at Wang Jing. “Okay.”

“Let me tell you a few more happy things. Now, it seems like the entertainment circle and media is no longer interested in those videos from the past. They want to know who you are now. But after only appearing in one dance performance, everyone is already actively talking about you. You already have a lot of fans right now.”

His future…

What could he expect?

…

Jiang Yuning returned to the crew and she continued to devote herself to the intense filming schedule for <Yan Huasu>.

At this time, Hou Da was very dissatisfied because she only had tickets for the stands, right at the back of the concert hall. Therefore, after she came back, she punished Empress Jiang by asking her to make up for all the progress that had fallen behind schedule in the past three days.

“You said that you are a good music student. Why aren’t you trying to become a singer or dancer? Why are you aiming to become an actress?”

Jiang Yuning: “Is this the reason why you are mad at me?”

“I just feel that it is really a pity that you have to give up on your music degree. If you didn’t have to lose out on those five years, you would have already been popular all over the country. I have already decided. After <Yan Huasu> gains a lot of popularity, I will go on to make a music show, just so I can feature you as a legacy and music prodigy.”

As soon as Hou Da finished her sentence, she rushed off immediately.

Jiang Yuning chuckled before she continued to recite her lines.

It has already been five years. Perhaps she was upset in the past but now that she was an actress, she felt that everything was worth it after all.

Since the progress of the filming was already delayed because of her, Jiang Yuning placed all of her focus and attention on filming and she stayed in the crew obediently. Vera did not plan any other assignments and activities for her.

Aside from recording the next episode of <Secret of the Nation>, Jiang Yuning would continue to focus solely on filming <Yan Huasu>.

Jiang Yuning felt relieved.

On the other hand, Wang Jing had already planned out everything for Lu Jingqi. She did not want to reveal too much information to the public but during an interview a few days later, Wang Jing casually mentioned that in the video that was leaked in the past, Lu Jingqi was in that state because he was injured at that time. She clarified that the rumor that Lu Jingqi was born with mental retardation was not true and the only reason why the video was leaked out to the public was because the family doctor was unscrupulous.

This way, the young fangirls felt even more distressed for Lu Jingqi.

He is really pitiful. He gets yelled at and insulted every day. Why doesn’t the young brother open his own social media account and post a selfie for us?

Jiang Yuning was not worried and she did not follow up on Lu Jingqi because she knew that Wang Jing was very experienced and good at her job.

What she was looking forward to was for Lu Jingzhi to visit her on set.

…

At this time, a few of the younger actors and actresses were gathered as they were waiting to film their scene. They were gossiping and discussing the relationship between a young actress and a rich young master.

“I heard that the young actress was given the role of the first female lead in a movie because of her relationship with him.”

“Actually, I am no longer envious of those artistes who made it to the top solely because of their connections. I will wait and I will work harder so that I can make it to the top based on my own ability one day. I think that the most important thing for actors and actresses is experience.”

“That’s right. Of course, we all entered the entertainment industry for the sake of popularity, but it is also because we enjoy acting. So, it’s boring to get the first female lead just like that.”

“Which movie is it?”

“<Desperate Line of Defense>. It is a disaster film. It seemed as though the whole had crumbled because of a virus, and only one country is still standing strong…”

As soon as Jiang Yuning heard those words, she spat out the water that she was drinking.

Why did it feel as though Vera had just handed her the script for this movie yesterday?
