Qiao Liang and Ning Yan frowned at the same time. Qiao Liang walked closer to Tang Xi and Ning Yan looked at Tang Xi and pursed his lips, asking, “Miss Tang, may I ask why you suddenly change your mind? Is it really because you think Xiao Rou is more suitable for this role than you after you read the script?”
“Well, Director Ning, you may not believe me, but to be honest, I don’t like a story like this. The strong will always be the strong, while the weak will always be the weak. In my opinion, the weak can never change into the strong, so I don’t like this story.” Tang Xi looked at Ning Yan with a straight face and continued, “A weak person can’t become strong unless she becomes another person. I, Tang Xi, won’t star in this kind of story, so you’d better ask Xiao Rou to shoot this promotion clip.”
“Miss Tang, do you know how much trouble you will bring us if you quit?” Ning Yan frowned at Tang Xi. Although Tang Xi could choose to quit, she shouldn’t do that out of the blue...
Tang Xi smiled as if not caring how much trouble they would have. She said lightly, “Don’t you think the queen of the campus is more suitable for this role? I don’t think my proposal will bring you any trouble. Instead, I think it will be better to have her play this role.”
In fact, she didn’t want to play the bad person... If 008 hadn’t issued her this task, she wouldn’t have to now make Ning Yan change the cast. However under the pressure of 008, she had to make Tang Xi quit!
From the very beginning, Qiao Liang had been standing aside and looking at Tang Xi quietly. At this time, He Wanzhou came up to her and said to her in embarrassment, “Xi... Miss Tang, you don’t have to quit because of me. I can leave right away. This is Xiao Rou’s first fashion show. I don’t want to ruin her promotion clip. I’m sorry for what I said to you just now. I take back those words and apologize to you.”
With that, he straightened up and made a deep bow to Tang Xi. “Miss Tang, I’m sorry. Please forgive me if I offended you. I shouldn’t have said those words.”
Tang Xi frowned, looked at He Wanzhou and pursed her lips, saying, “This is not your problem. I’m not an unreasonable person. If I were angry at you, I wouldn’t have read the script. I just think this script is more suitable for Xiao Rou.”
She then looked at He Wanyi who had remained quiet and asked her, “Miss He, Don’t you think so? Xiao Rou is prettier than me and is very graceful. As far as I know, she starred in the TV commercial of Magic Butterfly perfume, and the perfume sold very well since the TV commercial was released. And you’re willing to cooperate with her again because of that experience. Don’t you think it’s better to have her star in the promotion clip?”
He Wanyi raised her eyebrows and Ning Yan said with a frown, “Yes, Magic Butterfly perfume sells very well, but... she wore a half-face mask in that TV commercial to stay mysterious. Will she still insist on wearing a mask in this promotion clip?”
“This is her own company’s promotion video. Why can’t she show her full face?” Tang Xi smiled. “I take Xiao Rou as my friend, so I’ll shoot the posters and promote The Queen for free, but I’m not going to shoot the promotion clip. It’s up to you to have Xiao Rou star it or not. I’ll be going. Bye.”
She then took Qiao Liang’s arm and turned to leave.
He Wanzhou and He Wanyi looked at her receding figure in surprise and Ning Yan kicked a small pebble under his foot hard in frustration.
Tang Xi quickly walked towards outside and Qiao Liang looked at her, waiting for her explanation. Tang Xi took a breath, looked at Qiao Liang helplessly and said gloomily, “I’ll explain to you when I go back home tonight. Right now it’s too hard for me to explain.”
Tang Xi was at a loss of what to say. Damn it, 008! If she didn’t do this she would lose her life! How could she explain that to Qiao Liang? And how could she explain to him about 008? Sh*t, why was life so difficult for her? And why did she have such a stupid system who always gave her stupid tasks?!
As soon as Tang Xi and Qiao Liang drove out of the shooting scene, her cell phone rang. Tang Xi took a look at the caller ID, shook her phone before Qiao Liang’s eyes and hurriedly picked up the phone. “Hello, Director Ning?”
Ning Yan told her what happened on the phone and coldly said, “You must star in the promotion clip without a mask! Otherwise, I’ll quit too!”
“Well, Director Ning, I already know that Miss Tang has quit. She had called to explain to me.” Tang Xi said, “It’s my fault. I should have considered Miss Tang’s personality. Sorry, sorry. I happen to be around here. I’ll arrive at the shooting set soon. I’ll star in the promotion clip. It’s no problem. And I won’t wear a mask when I shoot it.”
Ning Yan didn’t expect Xiao Rou to agree with his requirements so quickly. He paused and asked, “Really? Won’t you ask Qiao Liang for his opinion?”
“Well,” Tang Xi took a look at Qiao Liang who was driving the car. She patted his shoulder to signal him to pull over and then she continued, “Qiao Liang has been very supportive of me. He won’t oppose. Besides, it’s my company’s promotion clip. I’m supposed to support your work unreservedly, right?”
“Then come here as soon as possible.” Ning Yan hung up the call.
Qiao Liang pulled over, looked at Tang Xi and frowned. “Promotion clip? You’ll star in it?”
“Haha, yes, didn’t you say that you support me?” Tang Xi patted his arm and said, “Drive the car downtown and change the car before going back to the set. I’ll finish the filming soon.”
Then without looking at Qiao Liang, she quickly unfastened the seat belt, changed clothes at the back seat, tore off the skin face and got out of the car.
Qiao Liang looked back at the clothes thrown to the back seat, rubbed between his eyebrows and then started the car.
He watched Tang Xi running away from the rear-view mirror, and he frowned. What happened? Why was she so abnormal today?
Why did she suddenly want to star in the promotion clip with the identity of Xiao Rou?
