Chapter 127 - The New Team
If something did happen, Nie Li would save Mo Li first. It was not only out of respect for Quan Yu but it was also clear that Mo Li had a better future in this business than the other girl.
...
Mo Li initially wanted to take this period to rest. After all, she had already gotten the surveillance footage from Nie Li, she didn't have to do anything for Nie Li anymore. However when she saw the cast members for Lady in the Snow, Mo Li's conviction was shaken. There were many old veteran actors whom she could learn from but most importantly, her friend, An Wan was part of the cast as well.
So Mo Li was now reading the script while the designer put on her makeup.
A man with great features suddenly appeared beside her. His expression was serious. He appeared tough and domineering. His body was bulging with muscles.
Mo Li took a glance at him and immediately recognized him as Jing Ting, the winner of the best actor award during last season's Golden Phoenix Ceremony!
As the makeup artists moved away to work on the other artists, Jing Ting immediately leaned closer to Mo Li. "What kind of skincare product do you use? You have such clear skin! I was in a hurry to get to the set and there were so many fans at the entrance so I didn't have the time to grab my cosmetics. Wei Wei, the makeup artist is so stingy, she only gave me like few drops of skincare lotion! Can you believe it? And the foundation! It's only the size of my palm!
"What am I supposed to do about my skin? I'm not going onscreen with such big pores..." Jing Ting pouted sadly. He touched his face and then turned to access Mo Li's fair skin. "Come on, as cast mates, we should share. What have you brought with you today?"
This whole series of interaction confused Mo Li. Then she sighed helplessly. She definitely shouldn't judge a person by their appearance. According to rumors, this Jing Ting was supposed to be a player, a quintessential tough guy. However, after meeting him in person... Mo Li had a feeling, they might end up more like sisters.
"Honestly, I don't have much on me." Mo Li admitted. Today was a Friday, she was dragged here after school. Other than a facial cleanser, Nie Li didn't give her anything else.
To prove that she was not lying, Mo Li upended the contents of her bags. Other than her homework, an iPad and some 'romance' novels, there was nothing else. The only thing that caught Jing Ting's eye was the Chanel facial cleanser!
"O well, in that case, let's go eat first. We can't work on an empty stomach, right?" Before Mo Li could say anything, Jing Ting snaked his arm through the crook of Mo Li's elbow and dragged her out from the dressing room.
Jing Ting introduced Mo Li to everyone they passed.
"This is Jiang Chi, he debuted about the same time as your brother."
"Hello, I'm playing the role of Xiao Yanshu in the drama."
"This here is our female lead. When she was 20, she has already won so many big awards! I'm sure you've heard of her, Su He."
Su He smiled sheepishly. Su He extended her hand at Mo Li. "Nice to meet you."
Mo Li was not that comfortable with having contact with strangers but out of politeness, she shook Su He's hand.
Looking at Su He, Mo Li did think that Su He fitted the role of the female lead, Yan Xingxian perfectly.
"Last but not least, you have me. I'll be playing the male lead, Ren Yanyi! We, aiz..." Before Jing Ting could finish his sentence, Su He pushed him aside. How can this man ramble on so endlessly?!
"I know that you're Mo Li. Sister Nie Li was my personal agent in the past. Let's work hard together for the next 3 months."
Wait, 3 months? When Mo Li heard that number, her heart skipped a beat. Why hadn't she heard anything about that?!
