Chapter 388: Newcomer

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

There was no shortage of scripts in the acting class.

Murong Qiao glanced at them and picked a few for Shi Yanxin.

“Try these few,” she said.

Shi Yanxin was stunned for a moment. Then, she came back to her senses and looked at the script. It didn’t take much effort for her to go through them one by one.

Anyway, she came late, and there was still a long time before it became her turn for the interview. Although she didn’t understand what Murong Qiao wanted to do, Shi Yanxin still acted according to her wishes.

Each character was very graphic and had a very personal style. However, she could switch freely and without any burden.

This time, Murong Qiao chose two more difficult ones. “Change it to this.

Shi Yanxin continued to act, and she was not inferior at all.

“Your acting skills are not bad,” Murong Qiao commented in a low voice. Looking at Shi Yanxin’s performance, she already had the thought of signing the other party.

Shi Yanxin smiled generously. “You’ll know how to play minor roles after being

an extra for a long time.”

“I used to go to a few studios a few times a day previously, so I’m already used to it.” She didn’t think much of it.

Shi Yanxin did not have a professional background, nor did she have any foundation in systematic classes. She relied on her willpower and perseverance to squeeze her way through.

When she was acting as an extra, as long as the time didn’t clash, Shi Yanxin would accept as many roles as she could.

However, Murong Qiao found it strange when she heard her say that she was playing an extra.

“Why are you plying your skills as an extra? If you nurture your acting skills well, you can audition for many supporting roles,” she said honestly.

It could be seen that Shi Yanxin was quite talented. Even though she took the unorthodox path, she was still strong. If she was nurtured well in the future, even being the main character wouldn’t be a problem.

However, when Shi Yanxin heard this topic, her expression darkened, and even the smile on her lips became bitter.

Her tone was low. “My money has to be used in more important places.”

Shi Yanxin also wanted to nurture her skills and take up classes, but her mother was seriously ill and needed money. She couldn’t bear to spend the money on herself.

“Mom’S illness requires a lot of money.” Shi Yanxin pursed her lips. “She has to undergo surgery soon.”

in addition, her contract had expired. This was also the biggest reason why she came to the interview today.

Acting as an extra was no longer enough to support her mother’s treatment costs. Shi Yanxin had no choice but to find other ways to earn more money.

“I heard that the benefits here at CG are not bad, so I wanted to try my best. I came over to give it a try,” Shi Yanxin said, but she didn’t have much hope.

Unlike the glamorous resumes of other artists, what Shi Yanxin could write about the most was which minor roles she had played and which supporting roles she had participated in.

However, such experiences were too ordinary. Shi Yanxin knew it herself.

A piece of precious jade, but no one had discovered it.

Murong Qiao thought.

“Then let’s sign the contract,” she decided decisively.

Shi Yanxin was so talented. It was really a waste for her to be a small player and act as an extra. Murong Qiao also felt that it was fate that allowed her to meet her today.

Shi Yanxin was surprised. “Huh?”

Before she could understand the situation, she saw Murong Qiao take off her mask, revealing her beautiful face in front of her. Only then did Shi Yanxin, who was a little slow in recognizing people, realize who the person standing in front of her was.

As for signing the contract, it was like a dream. Shi Yanxin was a little dizzy the entire time. After she signed her name, she gradually felt that it was not a dream.

“Hello, I’ll be your manager from now on. My name is Zhou Yi.” Zhou Yi gave her a simple introduction.

Zhou Yi was also arranged by Murong Qiao at the last minute. Murong Qiao had never been stingy with resources for talented people.

Hence, the script for one of the supporting actresses was sent over and handed over to Zhou Yi.

“You can just contact me about the itinerary. You should read more about this supporting role’s script.” Zhou Yi was an old manager.

He arranged Shi Yanxin’s recent activities in an orderly manner. Then, he brought her around the company to familiarize herself with the general layout. There were always few talking points in the company, not to mention that Shi Yanxin was an unfamiliar face who had suddenly appeared. Soon, many people knew that Murong Qiao had signed a new actress.

The human heart was always elusive, which was why there were many comments.

“Do you think… they’re going to unload An Nuo?”

“The new young lady who signed the contract looks quite pretty too. It’s definitely not a problem for the boss to take a fancy to her acting skills.

No one doubted Shi Yanxin. It was just that An Nuo had just quarreled with Murong Qiao some time ago, so it was really difficult for people not to link these two events together.

“In my opinion, the boss is the boss. If An Nuo doesn’t cooperate, she will definitely be taught a lesson… Besides, if our boss can raise one An Nuo, wouldn’t it be very easy to raise a second and third one?

This sentence spread throughout the entire company at lightning speed.

An Nuo’s manager, Su Zhen, had also heard of it. “What’s wrong? Why do you look so pale?” An Nuo had just finished filming.

She was so tired that her forehead was sweating. The assistant handed her a towel to wipe her sweat.

Su Zhen replied, “There’s a new actress in the company.”

“… Murong Qiao signed her personally.”

The last sentence was the main point that Su Zhen wanted to emphasize. An Nuo stopped wiping her sweat and was stunned. Her brows furrowed slightly as if she couldn’t believe it.

“You, be mentally prepared.” Su Zhen didn’t mention the worst case scenario. As a community of interests, she naturally stood on one side with An Nuo. However, Murong Qiao had signed a new actress at this juncture, so it was hard not to think about it.

However, An Nuo didn’t want to be mentally prepared. She just wanted to return to the company immediately and confirm if Murong Qiao was really angry with her.

All the schedules in the afternoon were canceled. An Nuo was stubborn for once and asked the chauffeur to send her back to the company.

She walked aggressively from the entrance of the company to Murong Qiao’s office. Along the way, nobody dared to say anything to her, afraid that they would provoke An Nuo.

The office door was suddenly pushed open. Murong Qiao, who was sitting inside, frowned. When she looked up, she saw An Nuo, whom she hadn’t seen for a long time, appear in front of her.

“You signed a newbie as soon as I left?” An Nuo asked her.

It was undeniable that she felt terrible and aggrieved now, but she was even more afraid that Murong Qiao was really disheartened by her.

She had been very busy recently because she wanted to prove to everyone that Murong Qiao had chosen the right person. At the same time, she wanted to make more money for Murong Qiao’s company while she was finally more popular.

However, when she heard her manager, Su Zhen, say that Murong Qiao had signed a new talent after she left, An Nuo finally couldn’t sit still anymore. Murong Qiao didn’t understand what An Nuo meant, but seeing her suddenly barge into her office, she could only remain silent for a moment.

However, An Nuo felt that Murong Qiao had tacitly agreed. “You’re angry with me, right?”

Her eyes turned red as she spoke. She stared at Murong Qiao, wanting an explanation from her.

“Calm down,” Murong Qiao said.

Her expression was calm. After saying this, she even took a pen and signed her name smoothly.

An Nuo was obviously controlled by her emotions now. Murong Qiao also knew that it was useless to say anything at this moment. Once she talked to An Nuo, it might even make the situation worse.

Many hurtful words, once said, would cause a rift in their relationship, it wouldn’t be so easy to repair.

However, An Nuo only felt that Murong Qiao had already turned cold and planned to completely give up on their relationship. She was even so cold to her now.

An Nuo was so angry that she felt wronged, but she didn’t want to show it. “I’m definitely stronger than her. I can earn a lot of money now..’
