Chapter 115 - Big Secret! (3)
The Male Lead's Substitute Wife
Manager Xiao froze for a moment. Then, he thought about those rumors he heard in private. He had also considered Xu Chaoranâs identity before, but when the starring list was sent over, Chen Xiuqi didnât say anything when he saw his name, which meant he agreed. So why was it not OK all of a sudden? Could it be what happened yesterday? That seems possible. Chen Xiuqi cared about Su Yaya very much!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Chen Xiuqi went on, âChange the male lead. Anyone will do. Just not Xu Chaoran.â
âUm...What about Yan Junyi then?â Manager Xiao asked tentatively. At first, they were going to choose one out of the two of them but they just settled with Xu Chaoran in the end.
When Chen Xiuqi heard that name, he frowned and said, âGet another one, heâs no good either.â Then, without waiting for Manager Xiao to reply, he added on, âDo you think a rejected male lead will still come back? Just look for someone else. Thereâs so many male actors in the entertainment industry, we can do without them.â
He was right. Manager Xiao said, âGot it. Iâll get to it right now.â
The filming for âFlourishing Willow in the Palaceâ was temporarily suspended, and news of the male lead being changed was quickly released.
The crew announced that the male lead, Xu Chaoran, was injured during filming and had no way to continue the shoot. Fortunately, they just started, so they still had time to change the male lead. Any suitable actors with open slots in their schedule can come for an audition.
Xu Chaoran had also posted on Weibo with roughly the same things as written by the crew. He also wrote that he was injured and had no way to continue the shoot. He had to take a break and he deeply regrets inconveniencing the crew and whatnot.
Xu Chaoran was popular but to say that he was injured and had to rest for a while was detrimental to his career, especially when the length of the break was yet to be determined.
For these stars, what they needed was engagement. If they donât show up in front of people for long enough, like for maybe ten days or half a month, their fans will slowly calm down. If they donât show up for a month, two, or maybe even longer, thereâll be a new face there to take their place.
Xu Chaoranâs fans were worried and all of them went to his Weibo to ask him what happened. There were even some fans who went to Xinghui Entertainment to ask about his situation, but nobody got a clear answer out of it.
Very soon, news that Xu Chaoran wanted to withdraw from the entertainment industry broke out. Even the line âXu Chaoran announces that he would suspend filming and exit the entertainment circleâ ended up in hot searches.
When Su Yaya saw that search term, she was resting at home. Since the project was on pause, she didnât have much to do, so she was brought to the capital by Chen Xiuqi.
In addition, Chen Xiuqi also told someone to get in contact with the producer of Fruit stationâs âBeauty and Gourmetâ, Sun Lei. He requested her scenes to be moved to the next episode because of her current health issues and told them he would be responsible for the losses. He also arranged for an even bigger name two-tier actress from Shengshi entertainment to take Su Yayaâs place and finally resolved the matter.
Su Yaya had a look through the hot search relating to Xu Chaoran, and although she didnât know the specifics of the matter, she could guess that this was likely related to Chen Xiuqi.
Suddenly, her heart turned cold. Chen Xiuqi really could take anyone and send them to their deaths anytime he wanted to!
The author has something to say: Su Yayaâs heart turned cold. Chen Xiuqi really could take anyone and send them to their deaths anytime he wanted to!
If one day, he wants to take her...Thinking about this, she shivered.
Chen Xiuqi frowned and took her straight to bed...
