Chapter 21 Flirting

Director Qu: "She didn't say that. She just said her last name was Chen and she was a woman. My crew didn't need investment at all, but she used investment to tempt me. I feel like she thinks highly of herself."

She feels like she owns the entire world and that everyone has to listen to what she says.

To put it bluntly, he's just an idiot.

Li Ruan bowed solemnly to Director Qu: "Director Qu, thank you very much."

When Director Qu is filming, he always uses a lot of dirty words to curse people, no matter how ugly they are. But when he is not filming, he is not so difficult. "If you really want to thank me, it will not be too late to thank me when I become famous in the future."

Liruan didn't expect Director Qu to be so optimistic about her, "Then I'll borrow the director's good words."

Soon it was Li Ruan's turn to appear on stage. In fact, this scene was quite simple. It was the scene where Song Sheng was just sold to Paramount by his stepmother.

Mrs. Song: "Manager Li, my daughter has been spoiled since she was a child. She has a seductive face like her lowly mother. You will not lose out if you buy her."

Manager Li chuckled: "Then Madam Song can't ask for an exorbitant price. How about this, fifty dollars and I'll take her."

Mrs. Song's expression changed immediately: "Fifty dollars? This is a living person, and he is only worth fifty dollars?"

Song Sheng was brought here with her mouth gagged by Madam Song. Seeing that she was about to be sold to such a place, she burst into tears and struggled violently but could not escape. She wanted to beg for help but could not open her mouth. In the end, she could only watch Madam Song sell her for eighty dollars.

After Mrs. Song left, Manager Li tore the towel out of Song Sheng's mouth. Song Sheng said anxiously, "Manager Li, please, let me go. I, I still have to go to school. If I really go in here, my life will be over!"

Her eyes were filled with tears and her tone was humble, but her heart was filled with reluctance. She wanted to break free from her current situation, but she had nowhere to turn to for help.

Manager Li ignored her request. She stretched out her finger painted with bright red Dan Kou and lifted Song Sheng's chin. "Tsk tsk, your crying face is really pitiful. If your stepmother had insisted a little more, I would have bought you even if the price doubled."

She raised her hand and patted Song Sheng's face again, looking at her with an expression that said 'you are too naive', "Silly girl, I have been in this business for so many years, when have I ever made a loss? I finally got a beauty like you, how could I let you go?"

Song Sheng's eyes were suddenly filled with despair as if he had fallen into an abyss, and he even decided to die.

Manager Li had seen this many times and saw through her thoughts at a glance. "Silly girl, do you really think that death will solve all your problems? If you die, I will ask the Song family to get back the silver dollars that bought you. Have you ever thought about what will happen to your mother?"

Speaking of her mother, Song Sheng became as quiet as a deflated ball. She knew Mrs. Song too well. If she dared to die, her mother would never be able to survive.

"It's better to live a miserable life than to die. I promise that as long as you listen to my arrangements, you will definitely become the object of pursuit by celebrities in Shanghai with your face!"

Director Qu: "Cut! This one passed."

The staff watching the performance were talking about it, "Who said Li Ruan's acting was bad before? I thought she would have to fail a few times, but she passed it in one take."

"But this scene is simple. All you need to do is cry."

"Don't tell me, don't tell me, she really does cry, and seeing her makes me want to cry too."

This was Liruan's first real acting experience, and after hearing what the director had to say, she immediately ran to the monitor to watch the playback.

Director Qu filmed several scenes smoothly today and was in a really good mood. He even teased Li Ruan, "This scene is simple so it's easy to pass. Your acting skills still need practice. Be careful. When I scold someone, I don't care whether you are beautiful or ugly!"

Liruan: ...For a moment she couldn't tell whether the director was belittling her or praising her!
I stayed on the set until almost six o'clock and then returned to the hotel. It was rare that I received a message from my sponsor today. Xi Leng: Where is he?

Liruan simply made a video call. After a few seconds, the phone was connected and a man in a formal suit immediately appeared on the screen. She leaned forward and looked at the man on the screen with a smile in her eyes. "Mr. Xi, it's rare. This is the first time you have taken the initiative to send me a message! Do you miss me?"

Xi Leng: ...It’s obviously the second time.

He kept a straight face, "You're in the hotel? Are you done with work?"

"Yeah, I just got back."

Xi Leng narrowed his eyes slightly. The woman on the screen was wearing a pink sweetheart neckline top today. As she leaned forward, he saw her beautiful collarbone and a hint of whiteness.

He frowned slightly, turned his gaze in one direction, and then quickly turned it back. The woman in front of him belonged to him entirely, so why couldn't he look at her?

"Have you had dinner?"

Li Ruan untied her hair, and her phone shook as she moved. Xi Leng seemed to see a hint of a white waist.

"I'm sweating all over and feeling uncomfortable all over. I need to take a shower before going downstairs to eat."

Xi Leng was silent for a moment, thinking to himself, if I call her later, will I be able to see her taking a bath?
"Hmm? Why isn't Mr. Xi talking? Are you thinking of some little goblin?"

Xi Lengxin said: Don’t I just think of you, little devil?

"Don't talk nonsense."

Li Ruan raised her beautiful eyes and then threw a coquettish glance at the person on the screen, "That means you miss me! It turns out that Mr. Xi can be shy!"

The woman was so beautiful and her voice was so charming that the man who flirted with her became angry and said, "Go take a shower. I'm hanging up."

Li Ruan looked at the black screen and curled her lips silently. Is this all wrong? She hasn't done anything yet!
He is so innocent. If it were another man, he would definitely wait until she entered the bathroom before hanging up the phone, right?
Xi Leng had just hung up the phone when Li Ruan's phone rang again. It was a message from Wei Zian: Sister, there is an emergency at home, I have to go back first. I will treat you to dinner next time I am free.

Liruan sent a message back: Then please be safe on the road and drive carefully.

After returning last night, she casually checked and found out that Wei Zian was a rich second-generation. His family was in finance and they were very rich. He had an older brother, and the company was managed by his brother.

Wei Zian's interest was not in the company at all, and others did not know that he was a hacker, so in their circle, he was just a dude with a bad reputation, and was even excluded from marriage.

However, she thought that boy was not someone who cared about his reputation.

After having a casual dinner at the hotel, Liruan continued to open her computer to take orders. As she had been quite active on the website recently and had completed several orders beautifully, some picky people came to her on their own initiative.

And the price offered was particularly high. As long as it did not violate the principles, she would take the job that paid more.

If you want to bring your family to Longcheng, less money is definitely not enough.
