Yu Xi arrived at the company a quarter of an hour earlier. When she and Zhong Chen entered Bai Yutang's office, there was already someone sitting there. Tao Yitong was sitting on the sofa and fiddled with her mobile phone. When she heard movement at the door, she raised her head and immediately smiled: "Yu Xi."
"You came."
The tone is familiar, the attitude is gentle, and there is no sense of their previous tit-for-tat feeling.
Yu Xi thought, this is probably what she needs to learn, to learn how to smile at people she doesn't like like no one else.
She nodded slightly, her expression cold.
Seeing her looking around, Tao Yitong said, "Are you looking for Sister Bai? Sister Bai just went out, let's go directly to the locker room in a while."
Yu Xi lowered her eyes: "Yes."
Zhong Chen stood behind her and whispered: "Xixi, shall I buy you some breakfast now?"
I drank some boiled water from noon yesterday, even Iron Man couldn't stand it, but Yu Xi didn't feel hungry, she waved: "Go and make me a cup of coffee."
"But—" Zhong Chen wanted to persuade her again, Yu Xi glanced at her lightly, Zhong Chen bowed his head: "Okay."
After Zhong Chen left, Tao Yitong frowned and asked, "Xixi, did you have breakfast?"
"I still have bread here."
Yu Xi tilted his head, and said in a cold voice, "Thank you, no need."
Tao Yitong ate the door shut. She glanced at Yu Xi's side face, pursed her lips, and then fiddled with her phone. Yu Xi was sitting all right, and the atmosphere in the room was awkward, so she played with her phone for a while.
Yu Xi hasn't been on Weibo for several days. She hasn't been on Weibo since Bai Yutang disconnected her from the Internet. She has been busy studying the script these days so she didn't pay attention to the news on the Internet. Now she has time to take a look.
The topic of her being gay on the Internet has subsided a lot. In the past two days, there has been almost no discussion on this matter on the Internet. Yu Xi knows that a large part of the reason is because she has been silent for a while and has no new news. When it got out, and Bai Yutang put in big news from time to time, finding some sailors to mix it in, so the news about her soon sank.
Now it is Liu Yuyao who is in the limelight.
Liu Yuyao took over Director Mei's new play, and today it was officially announced that the stills of the male and female protagonists are still on the trending searches. Yu Xi clicked in to take a look, confessed his love quickly, scrolled down, and even his name appeared.
— Do you know that Yu Xi was originally the heroine of this drama? It's just that she had an accident a while ago, so it was changed to Liu Yuyao's.
-who said it? Can you produce evidence? Just typing on the keyboard on the Internet, you say it's Yuxi, is it Yuxi? I only know that Yaoyao is the official one now, so please don't bring other people out, OK? I don't want to get people excited!
— To catch the heat? Yu Xi still needs to catch Liu Yuyao's heat? Did you say the opposite? After all, she is the youngest three-material queen in the circle, no matter whether it is winning awards or influence, it is a leverage. What did Liu Yuyao's fans grow up on? Can you talk about the heat? Have you gone through your head
- Don't you find it strange? Yuxi seems to have no news for many days, hey, he won't be banned, right
—I am a little worried now that she will be the next Xiao Lishui. To be honest, I quite like her. Her acting skills are good, she is not a monster, there is no scandal, and she does not like hype.
—I also like her quite a lot, especially the part about the reporter, it's so exciting!
— Can fans of Yu Xi change places if they want to confess their love? Don't you think this is very KY? Mention other actresses under our Yaoyao Weibo? ill
Seeing that a dispute was about to start, Zhong Chen came in with a coffee cup and handed it to Yu Xi.
Yu Xi put down her phone, took the coffee, and took a sip.
A little bit bitter.
Ten minutes later, Tao Yitong stood up and said to Yu Xi, "It's almost time, let's go to the locker room."
Yu Xi put down the cup and stood up too.
When we got to the dressing room, there were already quite a few people in it. Today's audition included other roles besides the heroine and the supporting actress, so there were a little more people.
There is a saying on the Internet that is correct. In this circle, apart from connections, the other thing that can best prove one's strength is awards.
Yu Xi is the youngest queen in the circle, and the small prize is even softer. Although she has been involved in scandals during this period, it has not affected her status in the circle. At least those newcomers saw her eyes. Immediately lit up, as surprised as if discovering a new world.
"Was it Yuxi just now?"
"Why did Yuxi come here?"
"Is she going to make this drama?"
"Why was there no news at all before?"
"Fuck, my goddess Yuxi??? Am I blind?"
Whispering came, Yu Xi walked through the crowd indifferently, took the clothes Zhong Chen handed to her and went to the dressing room. Tao Yitong behind her had no assistant yet, and the company staff helped to hand the clothes .
The others soon spotted her too, whispering louder.
"Isn't that Tao Yitong?"
"who is it?"
"Tao Yitong, who plays [Meng Ye], I heard that Jin Ou was recruited."
"Don't you know yet? She and Yu Xi are the same manager?"
"what!"
The girl who spoke was wearing a red dress, with a baby face and a ponytail. She shook her ponytail when she spoke: "Tao Yitong and my goddess are actually the same manager?"
"Is this the high incense burning in the previous life?"
The others glanced at the girl who was talking and laughed: "Yeah, it's a pity you didn't get burned."
The run-on girl didn't notice, and she still looked enviously at the two locker rooms.
A few minutes later, Yuxi came out from inside.
Everyone looked at her involuntarily.
Yu Xi was wearing high heels, a beige business attire, and a skirt. Her long slightly curly hair was loosely scattered behind her back. But when she raised her eyes a little, and looked at everyone, that kind of nobleness and coldness rushed over her face, making people bow their heads involuntarily.
Some people's arrogance is held up, like a shelf, empty in form and without charm, and cannot be convinced.
Yu Xi is different, perhaps it has something to do with her family background, the edification and education she has received since she was a child, she has an innate temperament, which is elegant, noble, and born proud and bony.
This kind of temperament is not sharp or pungent, but it makes people discouraged and dare not strike up a conversation casually.
Coupled with Yu Xi's status in the circle, it was even more embarrassing.
So everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, but no one dared to speak up. Even the girl in the red dress who was so excited just now blushed slightly and did not dare to come forward.
Yu Xi sat in front of the mirror and read the script, calmly.
Today's audition is for the heroine's first appearance in the play. She was framed by the female partner, Chen Lele played by Tao Yitong, to betray the company's internal information. With the help of the heroine, she collected evidence to prove her identity clean.
The content of the audition was the scene of her confrontation with Chen Lele.
Yu Xi has figured out the state of mind of the people in the play. The heroine she plays, Zhao Xiaoke, is usually a rookie who is suppressed, and has been holding her breath. This time, everyone who was framed did not listen to her explanation. Angry, so she was not as timid as usual during the confrontation, she dared not speak, on the contrary, she argued hard.
From the forbearance of entering the workplace to the first outburst, if it is placed in a drama, there is a long time to brew, but this is an audition, only a few minutes, and she needs to have several emotions in these few minutes. There are only a few changes, and there are not many lines, it is actually not very easy.
This is why Director Zhao chose this part to audition.
After this outburst scene, Zhao Xiaoke began to gradually change, and finally dominated the workplace with the hero.
Yu Xi is not worried about her acting skills, because she has been practicing this scene for the past few days, what she is worried about is facing Tao Yitong, she will not be able to enter the scene.
Looking at the delicate makeup in the mirror, Yu Xi took a deep breath and murmured in his heart: I am Zhao Xiaoke.
Self hypnosis.
Yu Xi used this method in acting at the very beginning, and it was quite effective.
While the lounge was busy, the door was opened, and there was a person standing at the door, with a professional smile on her face, she said unhurriedly: "The audition will start soon, Miss Yu and Miss Tao please."
As she spoke, she turned her body sideways, bent slightly, Yu Xi handed the script to Zhong Chen, stood up, and Tao Yitong followed behind her.
The two left the lounge together.
There was a distance from the lounge to the audition stage, Yu Xi and Tao Yitong walked side by side, they were speechless halfway, when turning the corner, Tao Yitong lowered his head and shouted: "Xixi."
Yu Xi tilted his head, looked at her lightly, but did not strike up a conversation, Tao Yitong lowered his eyes: "Is there time after the audition? I want to chat with you."
There was still a gentle smile on her face, Yu Xi looked away: "Sorry, I'm not free."
"Jingbai and I..."
Before he could finish speaking, he heard a voice from around the corner.
"Boss Jiang is younger than I thought."
The corners of Jiang Jingbai's lips raised slightly: "Director Zhao has won the award, and you look very young."
Hearty laughter followed, Yu Xi raised his head, and Jiang Jingbai and Director Zhao were indeed standing in front of him.
Director Zhao also saw her and Tao Yitong, and waved: "Yu Xi."
Yu Xi had worked with Director Zhao once before, so he was no stranger, so he immediately walked over to say hello: "Director Zhao."
Tao Yitong followed suit to say hello: "Hello, Director Zhao."
Director Zhao saw Tao Yitong and nodded.
Everyone walked in the direction of the audition, and a person ran towards him and said to Director Zhao, "Director, the screenwriter is looking for you."
Director Zhao nodded, and said to Yu Xi and the others, "You two go over first, I'll be right over."
"Boss Jiang, excuse me for a while."
Jiang Jingbai nodded and watched Director Zhao leave.
Soon they walked to the audition place, and the staff smiled: "Miss Yu, Miss Tao, the audition is inside."
After she finished speaking, she said to Jiang Jingbai respectfully: "Boss Jiang, then I will go to work first."
Jiang Jing bai hummed, and the staff turned and left.
The four stood at the door, none of them spoke. Yu Xi didn't like such a weird atmosphere. She held the doorknob and was about to open the door, but she didn't expect someone to come out from inside. Leaning forward, she quickly let go of her hands to prevent her from falling, but wearing high heels, she still staggered a bit.
Jiang Jingbai wrapped her arms around her waist with quick eyes, and grabbed her arm with the other hand.
Yu Xi is thin, with a slender waist, and has a faint fragrance on her body, not strong, but very intoxicating. Jiang Jingbai remembers that she used to love sweets and chewed candy when she was free. After each kiss, she would hold her face and ask, "Guess what kind of candy this is?"
She pretended to think for a long time each time, and finally shook her head and said: "I haven't tasted it, I will taste it again."
She didn't answer Yu Xi's last question until the two were out of breath, and said seriously: "Sweet."
Yu Xi laughed at her for being unprincipled.
In fact, she didn't lie, it was indeed sweet.
It was the sweetness she had never tasted since breaking up.
With the warm and fragrant nephrite in her bosom, the fragrance is overwhelming, Jiang Jingbai tightly hugged Yu Xi's hand, Yu Xi frowned, lowered her head: "Mr. Jiang?"
Jiang Jingbai didn't respond, Yu Xi pulled Jiang Jingbai's hand away, took two steps to the side, and stood upright.
Zhong Chen immediately stood behind her. Jiang Jingbai shot too quickly just now, and before she could react, Xixi was hugged by her. Thinking of how much Xixi rejected Jiang Jingbai, Zhong Chen looked annoyed.
People came out of the door one after another, Jiang Jingbai returned to her senses, her face was calm: "Didn't you hit me just now?"
Yu Xi pursed her lips: "No."
After she finished speaking, she lowered her eyes: "I'll go in first."
Jiang Jingbai curled up her hands hanging by her side, without saying a word, Zhong Chen followed behind Yu Xi with a worried expression, and she asked, "Xi Xi, are you alright?"
"Is there any discomfort?"
Yu Xi shook her head: "No."
"Right, you help me—"
Zhong Chen replied: "I know, buy disinfectant, right? I was optimistic about the brand yesterday!"
Yuxi: ...
Jiang Jingbai and Tao Yitong following behind: ...
