Chapter 222: 222: Bastard Speaking Up
Jing Lu’s eyes grew wider and wider.
She had finally gotten the chance to be accepted into a production crew, and this was her first time acting. Although her role was that of a villain on the show, there was still a possibility that she may become famous because of this role.
However, even before the official announcement even came out, her name had been removed and then added back multiple times. Her parents had gone through a great deal of trouble just to get her here, but she got herself fired on the first day of the shoot.
“Director Pan, I am truly sorry for what happened. Please give me another chance. This is all because Jing Qian is my big sister. She has always been extremely nice to me, which is why I’m used to being around her no matter what we do. I really meant no harm. I promise that I will never use her dressing room again, and I can promise you that I will complete my role perfectly. There is nothing wrong with my body. If anything goes wrong during the shoot, I will be responsible for it. Director Pan, please give me another chance. This is my first show!”
Director Pan was still searching for the right words to reject her, but Yunxiao spoke up once again.
“You snatched another person’s dressing room and when the owner was trying to get it back, you threatened her by saying that you felt uncomfortable. But now you’re telling the director that your body’s condition is good enough to complete the scene without any problem. Does this mean that your ‘heart condition’ was actually just a lie?”
Jing Lu stuttered, “No- That’s not…”
“No? Since it’s not a lie, why should the production crew use you? You might fall sick at any time. Wouldn’t production be delayed because of you, if something were to happen?”
Jing Lu shook her head and said, “No! I promise that I won’t cause any delay for the production crew. I won’t fall sick during the shoot.”
However, Yunxiao wasn’t letting it go.
“Does this mean that you have been using your heart condition as an excuse to get what you want? An actress who has no basic manners and such a bad personality on top of that? I refuse to work with someone like you.
“Even if you stop using Jing Qian’s dressing room from now on, you might still demand the Flower that belongs to her. What shall we do then? What if you want her outfit after this? Every time you don’t get what you want, you will say that you’re getting an attack. It would be impossible for us to finish the shoot.”
Yunxiao then turned to Director Pan, “Director, I think that we should be happy that we found out about such a serious issue before we began the shoot. If we had been halfway through or reaching the end, it would have been a nightmare.”
Director Pan nodded in agreement, “You’re right.”
With that said, he turned to Jing Lu, who already had tears running down her face and was still holding her hands close to her chest.
“Your actions and health condition aren’t suitable for this production crew. This isn’t a discussion. I am asking you to leave. If you can’t do it yourself, releasing a post online, I will do it for you. I refuse to have someone like you on my set.”
Jing Lu suddenly felt the world spinning around her.
The ‘tricks’ that she had used so successfully all her life had now failed her. Not only did they not help, they even brought her trouble. How could she reconcile herself with this situation?!
This was all Jing Qian’s fault!
That b*tch was the one who put her in this situation!
She must have done this on purpose! Tricking her into this trap, waiting for her to fall into this!
As these thoughts were running through her head, Jing Lu suddenly dropped.
“Xiao Lu!”
When he saw Jing Lu fall onto the ground, seemingly unconscious, Qin Yi couldn’t help but cry out loud.
The director panicked as well, quickly getting the paramedics on the scene.
While everyone was in a frenzy, Pan Wei was in shock, quickly saying to Qin Yi, “You’re her boyfriend! Has she ever had similar episodes in the past?! What should we do now?!”
However, Qin Yi did not answer his questions; instead, he tried explaining himself.
“I’m not her boyfriend. I’m close to Jing Qian, which is why I know her. We all attended the same school before this.”
“Stop explaining yourself. Director Pan is asking you what we should do in this situation!”
