Chapter 225: 225:Depressed Qin Yi
Jing Lu tried controlling the comments using money. Although most of the comments on her Weibo’s profile were telling her to rest and to only come back when she was fully recovered, these were all pushed back when the insider exposed what had happened in the afternoon, making it to the top of the search list.
Thousands of comments then started flooding into her profile.
There were some that mentioned that Jing Qian had extremely strong support. Ever since last night, Jing Qian had already occupied 10 out of the top 50 searches. She had already become famous without releasing any work. Although most of them would agree that how she retaliated was fun to watch, they still hoped that JIng Qian would concentrate on her acting instead. She was too focused on these things happening online. It was acceptable to do some marketing online, but excessive marketing would make it uncomfortable.
Soon, most of these comments from haters were quickly suppressed by Yunxiao’s PR team, which was extremely powerful.
Yang Yue and Jing Lu left the show, causing two vacant roles. When the cyber-bully incident happened, there were a few actresses who had contacted the production crew, interested in trying for the roles. Therefore, Director Pan directly chose two of them who seemed qualified to replace Yang Yue and Jing Lu.
These two were completely new artists and did not belong to the entertainment industry.
The first actress was called Ling Siqi, who was meant to replace Jing Lu. She was once a top student at the Imperial University, but due to something that happened back at home, she had no other choice but to quit school. Two years later, she had retaken the university entrance exam and was now currently studying Chemistry at Tsing Hua University.
When Director Pan asked her why she decided to interview for the role, she answered that it was because she needed money. When Director Pan got her to act out two scenes, however, surprisingly, he realized that although she was a top student in a science major, she was talented in acting as well.
Plus, she was incredibly good-looking, someone who appeared pure and gullible. With her looks and her acting skills, she perfectly resembled the looks of a white lotus b*tch.
The other person was called Kuan Yuchen, who replaced Yang Yue.
She was a woman who looked exquisitely charming as well. The only reason why they chose her was because, from her appearance, she looked like a woman who was soft and gentle. However, when they had the interview, she put her leg on Director Pan’s table, gave it a good kick, and the table broke into two.
Kuan Yuchen’s role was that of an important female villain on the show. This woman was only a normal high school student who got possessed by evil spirits. No matter if it was her physical fighting skills or her chemistry expertise, she was one of the best, and Kuan Yuchen fit that role perfectly.
Director Pan Wei rubbed away the droplets of sweat on his forehead and announced that it was Kuan Yuchen and Ling Siqi who had gotten the roles.
Ling Siqi was the typical white lotus that men loved. She looked gentle and fragile, which could cause other men to want to protect her.
Performance wise, Ling Siqi did a great job as well.
Initially, Jing Qian thought that Jing Lu had already perfected the role of the white lotus b*tch on the show, but when she was rehearsing it with Ling Siqi, she realized that this woman was able to sublimate her role to higher ground.
She was able to make others feel disgusted without doing anything extra with her acting skills. Her subtle change in facial expression allowed her to vividly play her character.
As for Jing Qian, her role was known as Zhong Luanluan, who was the boss of a mercenary corps. It was very similar to who she used to be.
After a few scenes, not only Jing Qian but even Yunxiao agreed that Ling Siqi was amazing for someone who was new.
Pan Wei, who felt mournful after all the twists and turns that happened even before this shoot, was able to finish a large number of scenes with perfect cooperation from all these actors.
Jing Qian would sometimes observe Ling Siqi and realized that if she wasn’t in the scene, she would usually sit quietly in one corner, either reading a book or drawing something.
As long as she wasn’t acting, she would put on a pair of dark-framed glasses that would cover up her beautiful face.
Even if there were award-winning actors and actresses on set, she wasn’t interested at all. Even when Yan Meiqi went up to her and tried to talk, she would answer politely but wouldn’t talk much.
When everyone on set noticed this, most of them decided to stop talking to her.
As for the other newcomer on set, Kuan Yuchen, like a socialite, she managed to become friends with everyone on set.
The scenes that would originally have taken the entire day to shoot due to the wasted time successfully came to an end much earlier than expected.
While they were shooting, Qin Yi wanted to try and talk to Jing Qian, but Yunxiao was always next to her. He was either talking to her or discussing the script with her, and Qin Yi couldn’t interrupt them.
After an entire day of failed attempts, Yunxiao felt that Qin Yi had become depressed.
Like an abandoned widow, Qin Yi had been staring at him the entire day with a slight hint of envy and hatred.
Finally, when they were done with that day’s work, Qin Yi caught up with Jing Qian and was trying to get the chance to send her home. Since Jing Qian was the Young Mistress of the Zhan family and she didn’t want anyone to know about this, it would be best if he could send her home instead.
Then, he heard Yunxiao’s voice.
“Where do you stay? I can send you back home.”
Qin Yi was speechless.
Although Jing Qian was well aware that Yunxiao was deliberately pestering her, she didn’t hate it.
But…
While she may not be in love with the man back at home, she was still married to him. Plus, the one back at home was handsome as well and wasn’t anything less compared to Yunxiao. Therefore, Jing Qian smiled at Yunxiao and said, “It’s alright. Thank you for offering, but there’s someone here to send me home.”
Yunxiao no longer bothered his little sister. As long as he got to prevent the GTB from disturbing her, he was fine with it. He could still get his men to learn who his sister was married to.
No matter who she was sold to, he would make sure that the other party would regret what they did to his little sister.
“Qianqian, is your driver coming for you? It’s my first day here, and it was so last minute that I didn’t make any arrangements. Would it be okay for you to give me a ride home too?”
Just when Qin Yi and Yunxiao had both failed to do so, Kuan Yuchen, who was new on set, suddenly grabbed onto Jing Qian’s arm.
At this point, the future of all the important characters on set now depended on Jing Qian’s mood. From what they had learned about Jing Qian’s fierce temperament, this woman would definitely be taught a lesson.
However, the only thing that happened was that Jing Qian removed her arms from her grasp, took a look at Kuan Yuchen and said, “Sure, but we may not be heading in the same direction.”
“It’s alright. Since you’re not the one driving, you wouldn’t mind making a detour, right?”
The other party was still clinging to her.
“Miss Kuan, where would you like to go? I can send you there as well.”
Qin Yi was just about to help Jing Qian remove this annoying plaster that was sticking onto her, but Yunxiao was one step ahead of him once again.
Qin Yi was now really depressed.
Why did it feel like Yunxiao was doing this on purpose?
Kuan Yuchen smiled instead and said, “Thank you, Yunxiao, but it’s alright. I think it’s better for me to head home with Qianqian. Otherwise, the others may think that I am trying to become famous by being close to you, or it would be worse if they thought we were a pair.”
Yunxiao was worried that it would trouble his little sister and asked Jing Qian, “Do you have time to send her home? If you don’t, my assistant can drive her home as well.”
Jing Qian looked at Kuan Yuchen and asked, “I’m headed towards the South Gate. What about you?”
Kuan Yuchen’s eyes lit up as she replied, “What a coincidence! I’m heading to South Gate as well.”
“Since we are heading to the same place, I’ll send her home then.”
