Jing Qian wasnât ready for this encounter. As she looked at the fierce gaze, her face immediately turned white.
âSo, it wasnât Jing Qianâs fault. It was yours.â
Yunxiao wasnât asking a question. It was a statement.
Then, everyone turned and stared at Jing Lu.
Jing Lu had always gotten what she wanted at home. As soon as she held both her hands by her chest, her mother would have given her the stars and the moon if she wanted. Plus, the kids back at school were gullible. If anyone dared to go against her, she would do the exact same thing and get what she wanted. This was why Jing Lu always thought that she was privileged.
However, on this day, she got scolded by the award-winning actor Yunxiao, someone who was usually warm and gentle.
Jing Lu was shocked. She immediately held onto her chest, put on a pitiful expression, and ended it with her eyes turning red.
Just as she was about to ask Yunxiao what she had done to offend him, causing him to accuse her, Yunxiao spoke up instead.
âYou keep putting your hands there. Are you trying to tell me that you have a heart condition, and I shouldnât have accused you? If youâre sick, you should be admitted instead. Looking at your outfit, you donât look like you come from a poor family. Iâm sure your parents wouldnât have a problem with getting you a doctor and treating you. Am I right?â
In other words, if you have a heart condition, you should leave.
Pan Wei shrugged and touched his nose. If the investors wanted him to change the actors on the show, he had no other choice but to do so. But did this mean that before the start of the shoot, they would be on the top list for the fourth time today?
Jing Lu didnât expect that her trick would have failed to work in front of Yunxiao. He didnât have mercy on her, and even threatened to kick her out of the production.
The tears were about to come out of her eyes as she quickly explained herself, âNo, thatâs not it. Yunxiao, please donât misunderstand me.â
âThen could you please tell me why Jing Qian isnât here?â
As Yunxiao continued staring at her, Jing Lu panicked and turned to Qin Yi.
After that, she cried pitifully, âBrother Yiâ¦â
If it was anyone else, Qin Yi would have helped her, but the person standing right in front of him was his idol and a senior in the industry.
Yunxiaoâs eyes turned even colder as he looked at Qin Yi, âYouâre aware of this?â
Qin Yi quickly shook his hands and refuted the statement, âIâm not!â
âWu Wei, whatâs the situation over there? Why is Jing Qian taking so long? We have been waiting for at least 30 minutes just for her!â
âWell, you would have to wait for another hour then.â
Wu Weiâs voice came from the other end of the call.
Since it was clear that Yunxiao was pissed and wouldnât allow anyone to get Jing Qian, Pan Wei decided that it was best to just call the makeup artist, Weiwei, and put her on speaker.
Pan Wei clearly didnât expect that they still had to wait for another hour and immediately exploded, âWHAT IS THE MATTER WITH HER?! Why do you still need another hour? Donât you know that everyone here is waiting for Jing Qian?! She may be new, but canât she at least act a little more professional?â
Then, Weiweiâs voice with slight indignation came from the other end.
âDirector Pan, you shouldnât blame Jing Qian for this. She was here early in the morning and waited for an hour and a half.
âBut Jing Lu. Oh my god, Iâm so tired of her! She only has a minor role, but she came into the dressing room early in the morning asking me to do her makeup. I told her to leave, but then she told me that she was Jing Qianâs younger sister. Then, after 5 minutes, Jing Qian got her and told her to leave, asking her to do her makeup elsewhere. Jing Lu refused and insisted on getting her makeup done before Jing Qianâs.â
Pan Wei got so angry that his eyes were about to pop out of his socket.
âShe told you to do hers first and you did?! Donât you know that the main lead has the most scenes?! You should have done the female lead first!â
