Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Director Lee did not seem to know that Warm and Xu Wei were friends. After all, when the two people were together, the outside world rumors that the two people were competitive.

Later, Warm stopped and no longer appeared in public. So, director Li had no idea of how the relationship between them was, let alone have an understanding.

​

“That’s just great,” he said with a smile.

Sister Lan and Warm looked at each other. The two of them understood the situation today. They guessed that Xu Wei and her agent were also very interested in the film, and wanted to fight for this role.

Director Li listened to Ji Zhang’s suggestion, then, he could not make a decision between the two at the time. So, to pick a heroine, he called them both.

This meal appeared to be a catch-up session, but it was actually an interview!

Sister Lan laughed. “Sister Yang can really joke. Xu Wei is at the height of her career. Warm just started. Now that Warm and miss Xu are close sisters, we should learn more from miss Xu!”

Sister Lan was the agent assigned to Warm by a new company. So, she was not familiar with Warm’s past relationships. To Sister Lan, her opponent was a first-tier actress, and she felt that Warm had no hope in this competition.

Sister Yang smiled and looked at Ruan Jiao Jiao beside Warm. Inadvertently squinting, she said, “you brought children? That’s great, we’ve got a kid here, too. They should play together.”

Warm and sister Lan just noticed that there was a little girl sitting at the corner of the room. She was sitting at the corner, eating snacks.

Sister Lan wondered, “who is this?”

Sister Yang replied with a smile,”this is Xu Wei’s niece. It’s just that director Li’s new play is short of a child. So happened that Xu Lan’s child also liked to act, so we brought her along for director Li to take a look.”

So she was here to fight for the role with Jiao Jiao.

She also spoke in the manner as if Director li had decided that Xu Wei would be the heroine.

Although sister Lan felt that Warm could not compete against Xu Wei, but the role had not been determined after all. They come to fight for the role, so hearing sister Yang say this, she felt unhappy in her heart.

Director Li then poured a cup of tea for everyone like a gentleman. With a smile, he said, “I believe you have all read the script. I want to hear your views.”

Xu Wei took the lead , smiling. “Director Li, I am naturally happy with the play. I have no opinion. Everything follows your will. You say how it should be shoot, and that is how I will shoot.”

Sister Yang smiled and answered, “yes, Xu Wei is a professional, and there is absolutely no problem, no matter what you want, Xu Wei can deliver!”

No matter what kind of heroine director Li wanted, Xu Wei had no problem. This not only impressed the director but also brought out the confidence of her professionalism.

Director Li just nodded, eyes looking to Warm.

Ji Zhang did give her a copy, that is, the selection of the play. It was not specific to the final script, but the general plot and the details of the character had been sufficient.

Warm had carefully studied the character, and also truthfully said her inner thoughts.

She had an opinion about the positioning of the character and she felt that there needed to be an adjustment in the plot.

She spent quite some time and said a little too much. Xu Wei’s teacup had long been drained. Sister Yang also covered her lips with her hand, obviously trying to stifle a yawn or two.

Director Li was very patient from the beginning to the end, just listening.

“I’m sorry, I’ve said a little too much. If there’s anything wrong, you’ll have to wait. ” Warm finished, only to notice that a lot of time had passed. The food had been on the table for a long time.

Sister Lan helplessly glared at Warm. She could have just been like Xu Wei, praising the director. Yet, she had to say so much, and she might have even said too much.

Did she not specifically explain to Warm to speak less before entering the door? Was she ignorant to the instructions?
