Chapter 314 - Script reading ( 1 ) (1/2)

Yuan Lei was annoyed with Mr. Han's gaze and looked at Xu Lan with grim expressions.

' This bitch must have told him everything.' she clutched her hands.

She wanted him to scold Xie Ming but he was scolding her instead. Her boyfriend told him that he has talked to him but why was he still talking to her this way?

' Is it because he does not want to show his bias against me in front of everyone? Is that it?' she wondered in her heart.

She believed that this major investor that he is talking about is her boyfriend. She didn't know how much he invested but only knew that he was the biggest investor in the movie.

She was feeling gleeful and glanced at Xie Ming with her scorning gaze.

She was glad because she has found a way to get in contact with Mr.han. If it was snot her boyfriend, she wouldn't have gotten into this movie.

She didn't mind Mr. Han's behavior much because she considered the possibility of him being behaving this way just on the surface. She thought that he wanted to hide his personality and would treat her better while shooting.

She plastered a mild smile on her face and listened to his words that he wasn't talking about her.

Xu Lan who was behind Mr. Han was amused to see the shamelessness of Yuan Lei. He was talking about her and was looking at her also, but she pretended to like it has nothing to do with her.

At this moment, she wanted to clap for her thick skin.

Others were also glancing at Yuan Lei from side-eye and felt that she was commendable.

…

Afterward, Mr. Han turned to Xie Ming and asked, ” Xie Ming, how do you feel meeting everyone? It is your first time acting, right? So what was your experience?” he was pleased by the way Xie Ming sat in the middle and not trying to get close to him.

He has seen many actresses getting close to him for the benefits and Yuan Lei was no different. She keeps laughing and behaving like listening to his words diligently to gain his attention. But Xie Ming was just sitting quietly with her blank expressions.

She didn't even try to strike a conversation with him yet. He liked this girl because of her composure and attitude.

Mr. Han was also interested in her because he knew that it was Xie Ming's first time acting in a movie. He also knows that she wasn't interested in acting but was forced to audition for the movie.

So he was more determined to not let her go. Seeing her raw talent, he believes that this girl can reach the great heights in the industry if she was taught and polished well.

Xie Ming smiled lightly at him and said, ” Yes. It was good. It was my first time experiencing something like this, so it was quite exciting.” she said honestly.

” In this workshop, I got along with many people and got to know many people well. This way I managed to make a few friends as well.” she laughed lightly.

Mr. Han was pleased with her answer. He knew the problem between Yuan Lei and her.

He was expecting her to complain and say something, but she didn't say anything about anyone and just complimented the workshop.

” Very good. So now let's have some breakfast. After that we will move to the conference hall to start our script reading.” he said while sitting in the center of the table while Xu Lan sat on his right.

Yuan Lei stared at Mr. Han in bewilderment. He just ignored her when she was the female lead and was giving Xie Ming more attention.

He didn't ask her any questions or about her experience but Xie Ming? Why her?

She couldn't understand why he was behaving this way.

' Didn't, Leng Luoxin talked to him already? Then what happened to him?' she sat on her chair while staring at Mr. Han in confusion.

…..

During the breakfast, Director Han noticed the way Xie Ming ate. Her way of eating was elegant and clean.

Her actions were so smooth that it was evitable that she wasn't faking it. It was very natural for her to eat this way.

He was impressed that he has chosen the perfect person for this role. She was very smooth and elegant in her actions and fits for the role of the Empress.

During breakfast, he also noticed Yuan Lei who was trying to strike conversations with him and was trying to show off how her fans are crazy about her.

And how she keeps getting offers from other directors to act in their films, but she chose to work in his movie.

Yuan Lei was lying about getting many projects these days. She doesn't get many roles these days.

Getting a role that too of female lead in Mr. Han's movie was truly an achievement. Though she won the newcomer award last night however it doesn't mean her popularity will remain the same.

Her fans might believe her but people who have worked with her knew very well about her character.
