Sweetest Top Actress in My Home

Chapter 527: Is It Too Late to Cut Off Contact Now?

“What is the plot about?”

“The tragic story of a young woman that is not visually shocking but it involves a realistic theme and it has a rather interesting plot. I think that this is possibly an award-winning movie,” Vera explained immediately.

“Let me have a look at it then,” Jiang Yuning replied as she nodded. Even though she really loved disaster movies, she really could not accept the attitude of the production team and cast for <Desperate Line of Defense>.

If the storyline for this new movie was good, she could consider staring in the movie before furthering her studies.

Anyway, she would also be able to give the haters and the people who were creating and spreading those rumors about her and Gu Hanwei a slap across their faces.

“Who gave them the courage to spread the rumor that you actually took on the role of the first female lead of <Desperate Line of Defense>?”

Jiang Yuning felt that Vera had become even more verbose ever since she got into a relationship. All of these were mere conspiracies that they faced in the entertainment industry all the time but it seemed as though Vera could not let it go at all.

“Is Brother Chennan in the crew lately? Or is he somewhere that makes it difficult for him to contact you?” Jiang Yuning suddenly asked.

“How did you know that?”

Jiang Yuning clasped her hands together, with a know-it-all expression on her face. “So, this is the reason why you can’t stop chanting sutras in my ear...”

Vera: “...”

Was it too late for her to cut off contact now?

...

The new movie produced by Guangying Media is called <Suffocation>. The movie revolves around the life of a young and elite professional woman and her relationship with her autistic daughter.

In the movie, the young woman would always be dressed up beautifully and elegantly and she would always highlight her own abilities and beauty to everyone around her. Moreover, she also hid the fact that she had an autistic daughter from the world, as though she wanted to live in the glamorous world all on her own.

The drama began when some of her colleagues started circulating rumors that she had a daughter who was autistic.

From that moment on, her entire world started collapsing immediately.

Everyone scolded and reprimanded her for her vanity and because she was being so mean toward her daughter. However, the mystery would only be solved at the end of the movie.

She managed to bring in a lot of income and money because of her disguise and this was the only way she could maintain and afford the cost of her daughter’s treatment. Moreover, her husband, his parents and his brother would always try to drag her down and they did not give her any hope for a better tomorrow at all.

The tone of the movie was very dim and sad.

However, after reading the drama script, Jiang Yuning felt even more interested in <Suffocation>.

This was a story about the life of a strong and independent woman.

Compared to a movie that would definitely have high box office ratings, Jiang Yuning was more interested in a movie with a meaningful plot.

Jiang Yuning was already twenty-five years old but she has ever experienced any maternal love before. Therefore, she really wanted to experience what maternal love was from the female lead in <Suffocation>.

After reading the script, Jiang Yuning immediately decided to take on the role in the movie, <Suffocation>.

Moreover, the process went by very fast and smoothly because this movie was produced by Guangying Media. Therefore, all of the business meetings with the director and producer of the movie was very professional. After having a casual meal together, Jiang Yuning would talk about the role of the characters in the movie with the director and producer.

The director felt that Jiang Yuning would not be able to portray the attitude of a woman who was married with a child because she was still so young. Therefore, he recommended for her to experience life and to attend more professional acting courses before they start filming the movie.

In fact, the exact words of the director was, “Fortunately, you are ambitious and I can see that you are willing to endure hardships. I have seen some of the video clips from the drama, <Nameless Orphan>. Your acting skills have improved greatly but if you want to play the role of an emotional character very well, you cannot rely on talent alone. You still have a lot of room for improvement. Every time you are going to take on a role, especially if it is a difficult and challenging role, you have to think about what you can do for this character and how badly you want to portray this character.”

This was what you should be doing from the bottom of your heart.

Jiang Yuning accepted his suggestion and she thanked him for his advice.

“You will join the crew for <Suffocation> in August. Therefore, you have about one to two months left before you leave to join the crew. After the charity dinner, I will arrange for an acting teacher to give you some acting classes in Guangying Media. You have to work harder from now onward,” Vera told Jiang Yuning after the dinner.

“Alright then, you can make the necessary arrangements for me.”

“I will arrange for some of the acting teachers that the director had mentioned earlier to give you some classes. However, I heard that most of the actors and actresses usually break down and starts crying because of the stress that they feel from participating in their classes. You have to be mentally prepared for that.”

“Well, that is not really a big deal. If I really cry during the class, then at least, I will be able to cry better when I am filming the movie, right?” Jiang Yuning replied as she raised her brows at Vera.

A movie on the big screen.

Which actress would not want to conquer that?

“But you might also miss out on the advanced acting class that you applied to before this.”

“I will also be taking another acting class. I will still make the arrangements to further my studies in future. After I am done filming <Suffocation>, I will arrange to attend the classes next year,” Jiang Yuning replied immediately.

“How about...not attending university at all?”

“No. I want a degree.”

This was a thorn in Jiang Yuning’s heart. Even though the public was more tolerant toward her now, she did not want to stop right there. As long as there was an opportunity for her to rise and improve herself, she would seize it immediately.

“Alright then. You can take advantage of the promotional activity for Flowers on this upcoming Wednesday to talk about your future plans. You can also bring up the movie without mentioning the name of the movie before the official announcement is made.”

“If I did that, then everyone will think that I really took on the role of the first female lead in <Desperate Line of Defense>. Wouldn’t they feel even more triumphant at that time?”

“Let them think whatever they want to,” Vera snorted. “Anyway, Guangying Media will be making an official announcement about the movie in a few days’ time. At that time, those people will get slapped in their faces immediately. How fun is that? Since they have been toying around with us all this while, shouldn’t we fight back and give them a taste of their own medicine?”

Jiang Yuning could not help but stare at Vera in amazement after listening to her words. “Tsk. Tsk. Look who’s getting meaner.”

“I learnt it from you and the second young master Lu. Do you really think that you are so innocent?”

At this time, Jiang Yuning narrowed her eyes as she glared at Vera. “Who are you talking about?”

..

After making all the final arrangements for the movie, Jiang Yuning made some free time to visit Lu Jingqi at K Agency.

After all, most of Lu Jingqi’s pre-debut work had already been finalized.

As K Agency’s ultimate secret weapon, the mysterious boy had garnered and attracted a lot of attention and he had also gained a lot of fans because of his excellent dancing skills and his handsome appearance.

When Jiang Yuning saw the publicity photos that Wang Jing had released of Lu Jingqi...she could not help but admire Wang Jing’s professionalism.

If Jiang Yuning was not married, she would definitely be interested in that young boy.

Of course, she was just thinking about it. Cough. Cough. Otherwise, the king of jealousy would definitely be jealous over his own younger brother.

However, even though Jiang Yuning was free, Wang Jing said that Lu Jingqi was not free to meet up with her.

Even though she was a popular artiste and even though she was related to Lu Jingqi, there was no way she could meet him because Lu Jingqi was in a neighboring city to shoot a music video with the other boys who would be participating in the dance competition.

After listening to Wang Jing words, Jiang Yuning felt that it was a waste that she could not see Lu Jingqi. However, just as she was about to hang up the phone, Wang Jing suddenly asked her, “Do you know who Jingqi relies on the most right now?”

Jiang Yuning: “???”

“Jin Mingchen! Jingqi lost his temper when he left Luo City the other day and Jin Mingchen is the only person who could coax him and talk some sense into him.”

“Do you know why? It is because Jingqi regards Jin Mingchen as his lifesaver!”

Jiang Yuning felt very uncomfortable as soon as she heard Wang Jing’s words. She was the one who gave him the chance to start a second life but in the end, she could not even be compared to someone who took the hit from him in front of a motorcycle.

Pfft!
