The moment he saw Song Qianming, elder Qian was slightly surprised. It had been a long time since he had seen such a refreshing, clean, and smart young man.
Second miss Qian lifted her chin slightly in satisfaction. She had said that she had good taste, right?
“It’s a pleasure to meet you, elder Qian!” Song Qianming quickly stood up and greeted.
“Have a seat.” Elder Qian had a gentle look on his face. “How’s your preparation going?”
“I’m willing to listen to elder Qian’s advice.” Song Qianming wasn’t being modest, and was prepared to show him his acting.
Elder Qian didn’t think there was a problem with his attitude, so he turned on the camera. “Since you’re ready, let’s do it. Xiao Er, rehearse the lines for him.”
“Yes, Grandpa.”
Putting down the script, Song Qianming immediately adjusted his expression. This was the first time he was acting in front of someone other than Youhuan, but he didn’t feel nervous at all.
He had experienced many assassinations in his previous life, so this was nothing to him. After all, in the treacherous palace in his previous life, he had been acting for nearly twenty years. It was only when his royal brother ascended the throne that he did not need to hide himself.
“Third brother, do you really have to go?” he roared with a hint of forbearance.
Second miss Qian read Chen Zeyu’s lines emotionlessly, “Second brother, you won’t understand me. You don’t understand patriotism and devotion to the country at all.”
“Yes, I don’t understand, but big brother has already sacrificed himself for this country. If something happens to you as well, what do you want grandmother and mother to do? ”
“Grandmother and mother have you.”
“Stop right there!” Song Qianming’s voice grew louder, and his lips trembled. His eyes were filled with crazed emotions, but he quickly suppressed them.
“Yes, I’m not as righteous as you,” he mumbled and clenched his fist as he lowered his head. “Second brother is not as brave as you.”
The script did not specify how this scene should be played out, but elder Qian’s eyes became more and more bright. “Interesting.”
Song Qianming raised his head again, and the look in his eyes changed. “No matter what, as long as I’m here, I won’t let you out of this house. You can scold me or hate me, but third brother, we can’t let anyone else die in the Chen family.
The second Qian miss looked at him in surprise and continued to read, “We can’t let anyone die in our family, but can others? Second brother, I was wrong about you. I, Chen Zeyu, am ashamed to be your brother.”
Song Qianming was unmoved. “I’ve already arranged a marriage for you. From now on, you can just stay at home and prepare to marry the girl.”
“You …” Second miss Qian’s voice was involuntarily filled with emotion. “How can you agree with mother about this? You know that I wish for a free love. Have you forgotten what we once said? I won’t marry her, I can’t ruin the rest of a girl’s life.”
“It’s not up to you to decide if you want to marry her or not.”
“Second brother, you’ve really changed. I really have no respect for the current you.”
Song Qianming’s eyes were deep, as if he was watching Chen Zeyu’s back as he left angrily. Then, he laughed at himself and returned to his room decisively, looking desolate and lonely.
“Pa pa pa!” Elder Qian was not stingy with his applause. “Not bad, as expected of someone recommended by old He.”
“Elder Qian, you’re overpraising me. It’s good that I didn’t embarrass teacher.” Song Qianming quickly adjusted his emotions and replied humbly.
“She should be proud to have such a student. I really envy her! She’s lucky enough to find all the talented ones.”
“It’s all because of teacher’s good teaching.”
“It’s your good fortune to be able to learn from her. May I ask why you acted like that just now? Normally, Chen Zeshu would be pedantic and foolish if one only read these two pages of the script.”
Song Qianming explained his understanding. “The three sons of the Chen family all received the same education. There’s no reason for the eldest and third sons to be patriotic while the second son is not. In my opinion, Chen Zeshu has to take care of his family and face the war at the same time. His elder brother died suddenly, and he unexpectedly had to bear the burden of supporting the family. He must be very confused and sad.”
“Very well understood.” Elder Qian nodded his head in admiration, “You and I are thinking the same thing. However, even though you performed well in all aspects, I still can’t guarantee you this spot. Do you understand?”
“Of course I understand. I’m already very thankful that you’re willing to give me this opportunity to audition, elder Qian.” Song Qianming was not disappointed. He had tried his best, so he had no regrets.
Moreover, some things couldn’t be obtained with one’s own strength. In his previous life, even if his royal brother sat on the throne, he had to consider all his decisions carefully, let alone a director in this life.
Even if it was a famous director, he might have things he couldn’t control. It could be seen from the arrogant man outside just now. That man was obviously not on elder Qian’s side, but he was on the filming set. This clearly explained the problem.
“Xiao Er, you two exchange contact information. Have you signed a contract with an agency?” he asked Song Qianming.
“No, I just terminated my contract with the previous agency.”
“Then which company did you sign with before?” second miss Qian asked curiously. “How did you get buried for so long? Logically speaking, with your looks and skills, as long as you’re given slightly better resources, you should be able to become famous very quickly, right?”
“Maybe it’s just bad luck!” Song Qianming shook his head and laughed, then said seriously, “Elder Qian, whether you hire me or not, there’s something I must let you know in advance.”
“What is it?”
“Actually, I only terminated my contract with my previous agency because the media exposed a piece of negative news about me.”
Second miss Qian was taken aback, then immediately asked, “What negative news?”
Song Qianming answered honestly, “I made a mistake when I was in university. I didn’t know that the other party had given birth to my child behind my back. It was only a few days ago that the child’s mother fell seriously ill and couldn’t take it anymore. That was when she exposed it to the media and came to me.”
The grandfather and granddaughter obviously did not expect this to happen. This was indeed a bit difficult to handle because the higher-ups could not tolerate artists with a bad reputation now. They did not know if his situation counted.
Thinking of his earlier performance and his honesty, second miss Qian could not help but speak up for him in front of elder Qian, “Grandpa, I don’t think this counts. After all, it’s normal for adult men and women to have sex. Besides, the woman deliberately hid it from him, so he can’t take responsibility even if he wanted to! Don’t you agree?”
Elder Qian rolled his eyes at her. “Didn’t you say that you’re only here to broaden your horizons? Why are you being biased suddenly?”
“I’m just afraid that you’ll lose a good actor,” second miss Qian replied coyly. “Grandpa…”
“Alright, alright, I’ll think about it.”
Second miss Qian wasn’t too satisfied with this result, but with a look from her grandfather, she had no choice but to give up. She gave Song Qianming a look that said she had done her best.
Song Qianming smiled and thanked her. The rest was up to fate. If he really couldn’t become an actor, there would always be another way out. He didn’t believe that he, a prince, couldn’t make something of himself in this society.
