Chapter 112: Invitation
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Who wouldn’t pay attention to the matter of the eldest young master of the Shi family, Shi Xiao? When it came to a big matter like marriage, everyone was curious about what kind of person married into the Shi family.
She was actually the woman of humble beginnings who spent her days drinking and fooling around. Moreover, she dressed up in such a tacky manner everyday.
Everyone knew how she climbed into Shi Xiao’s bed. After that, she threw a tantrum and forced the Shi family to submit. These deeds were not a secret in upper society.
However, if they were to associate the woman in front of them with the infamous Yuan Shu, that would be too shocking!
Not only was the woman in front of them beautiful, but even her temperament was top-notch. Everyone who came to the banquet today paled in comparison to her.
Even if she just stood there and curled her finger, countless people would fall at her feet. Why would she need to drug a man?
Everyone looked at Yuan Shu again. At this moment, they realized that rumors could not be trusted!
Yuan Shu could tell that everyone was surprised. She put on a polite smile and endured their scrutiny. She had felt such gazes countless times ever since she came to this world.
In the end, it was Mu Zhou who broke the awkwardness first. “Director Wang, don’t you think that Yuan Shu is very suitable to be the female lead of your new movie? When I saw your script, the first person I thought of was Yuan Shu.”
Wang Shen answered almost subconsciously, “Yes, doesn’t she look like the female lead?!”
Wang Shen couldn’t agree more. Yuan Shu’s aura was exactly the same as that of the female lead in the script. It was as if this role was tailor-made for her.
When he saw her, it was as if the person in the script had appeared in the real world.
Moreover, Yuan Shu was the Madam of the Shi family. If she acted as the female lead in this movie, she naturally would not have to worry about investment.
However, Wang Shen suddenly felt worried. After all, Yuan Shu was not from the entertainment industry, so it was hard to say if her acting skills could pass.
Although Wang Shen wanted to earn money, he would not ruin his own reputation for it. If the qualitt of the drama was not good in the end, not only would it waste time and money, but whether it could be broadcasted would also be a problem.
When Zhang Chao heard the conversation between the two of them, he felt uncomfortable. The Shi family had never been forced to do anything, unless they were interested.
Lin Feng’s manager had obviously thought of this problem as well. He said jokingly, “Director Mu, in terms of temperament, I also think Madam Shi is very suitable. However… Madam Shi isn’t from the industry, so how can she act in it?”
Wang Shen and Mu Zhou looked at each other. Clearly, they also realized this problem. It was not a matter of acting skills and investment at all, but the fact that Yuan Shu had never said anything about acting in it at all.
Humans were very strange. Once they obtained it, they would have many worries and feel that it was inappropriate. However, if they could not obtain it, they would only have one thought, which was to snatch it!
Hence, Wang Shen started to recruit Yuan Shu. “Madam Shi, you haven’t seen our script yet, right? It’s really suitable for you. Why don’t you join the entertainment industry to experience life like Shen Lu? The filming of the drama will only last for three months. You can film on your own schedule. We can also film all the female lead’s scenes first.”
When Zhang Chao heard this, he could not help but roll his eyes. In order to snatch a suitable person for his female lead, Wang Shen was willind to do anything. How could he let the actors take the time to film on their own schedule, especially the female lead, who had the most scenes? Wasn’t he lying?
Zhang Chao was worried that Yuan Shu did not know much about filming and would be deceived by Wang Shen, so he wanted to reject on Yuan Shu’s behalf.
However, Yuan Shu smiled awkwardly and said, “Thank you for your kindness, Director Wang. Unfortunately, I don’t know anything about filming, so I can only reject your kind offer..”
