Ran Xueyi agreed with Zhao Fei's suggestion.

There was no need for her to worry about a film that won't be filmed anytime soon. She should focus on her role as Ruan Jiaojiao and if possible, she wanted to appear in more films and movies before her plan goes into action.

"Sister Zhao, are there other scripts offered to me?" Ran Xueyi asked.

Zhao Fei was slightly surprised when she heard her but still said, "There are definitely others. However, don't you want to focus on your role in this thriller movie?"

"My role doesn't have that many scenes anyway. At most, I need to appear in the camera to shoot. I should be able to finish in less than two weeks if nothing else happens." Ran Xueyi's scenes in the thriller movie we're really not that many.

Ran Xueyi continued, "I don't want to accept scripts for female leads. Just give me the scripts for second leads or third leads. The number of scenes or appearances doesn't matter. If possible, I want to know if there are some commercial shoots I can film."

Zhao Fei was even more surprised this time. What does Ran Xueyi mean by this?

"Xueyi, is this because you're in a hurry to shoot more films so you can gain more publicity? You don't need to think about it, let me handle this matter." Zhao Fei wondered why she suddenly asked this, "By the way, why are you asking?"

Ran Xueyi was silent for a few seconds.

Then she decided not to tell Zhao Fei. If Sister Zhao finds out that she planned to leave the country and hide for a while, she might stop Ran Xueyi and get angry at her.

Of course, Ran Xueyi didn't want to hide forever. She just wanted to gather as much strength as she could get so she wouldn't become a live target or be protected by the people she loved again and again. Ran Xueyi wanted to be the one who does the protecting and she wanted to protect Song Yu Han and her baby.

Zhao Fei didn't hear a response from Ran Xueyi and thought that she might have been in a rush. It was understandable since Ran Xueyi was a retired actress who came back to the entertainment scene once again. It would be weird if she wasn't worried and didn't want more resources when there were more and more budding and new actors and actresses.

"Alright, I will follow your decision. I'll look for scripts that don't have many scenes but have more importance in the film. As for commercial shoots... there's a few that were recommended by Chief Secretary Wu Qi, I already planned for you to shoot them this month anyway."

Ran Xueyi thanked her before looking away, covering the uneasiness that flickered in her eyes. Thankfully, Sister Zhao was still the best agent for her. She could already tell what she wanted and needed.

The two of them finally arrived at the film studio. It was a police station that was built in the center of the film city. In order to imitate what was described in the book, the crew and Director Sun quickly built the station and other buildings and houses that were described in the book. In just a few months, the places that were mentioned in the book were created.

Casting Director Hao saw his senior sister walking towards the director's tent and waved his hand. "Senior Zhao!"

Zhao Fei calmly glanced at him and said to Ran Xueyi, "That is the junior brother who I met when I gave your resume to the directors."

Ran Xueyi moved her gaze towards Casting Director Hao and smiled at him. She said as soon as they were close enough, "Good morning, Director Hao."

Casting Director Hao greeted her back and said, "No need to be so formal with me. I'm older sister Zhao's junior brother. That means we're part of the family. You can just call me Haoge."

"That's right. When I'm out of the studio to handle some things, you can come to Junior Brother for assistance. You can ask him if you don't understand anything."

After a brief introduction and talking about some things with Casting Director Hao, Zhao Fei left the studio first and Ran Xueyi was sent to the dressing longue where every actor will stay to get their makeup and costume done.

When Ran Xueyi entered, she saw Miao Li and Su Zixi, both the male lead and female lead of the movie, were already inside the dressing longue. The two were talking to each other when they both turned their heads to look at the newcomer.

Miao Li saw Ran Xueyi and a bright smile flashed on her lips. "Sister Xueyi! You're here too?"

Ran Xueyi nodded as she walked over to them. "Director Sun said my scenes should be filmed much earlier than the scheduled time. This time, I need to trouble Sister Miao and Brother Su to help me when we shoot our scenes."

Su Zi said, "No trouble at all. I'm happy that I can shoot my scenes with you too."

Miao Li exclaimed, "Me too!"

Miao Li was even more enthusiastic when Ran Xueyi appeared and hugged her arm, pulling her towards the sofa that was placed against the east wall. She whispered, "Don't look at that pretentious bastard, he might look like he's pretty calm but inside, he's suffering from internal heat!"

Ran Xueyi raised her eyebrows and wondered who she was talking about. Was it Su Zixi?

As soon as Ran Xueyi thought of this, Miao Li pouted her lips and pointed at Su Zixi, who had his head lowered and looking down his phone, seemingly uninterested in what the two girls were about to talk about.

However, if you observed him closely, you would find that the tip of his ears and neck was red.

Ran Xueyi also lowered her voice to ask, "What's wrong with him? Did he drink before coming to the studio?"

Upon hearing her, Miao Li almost suffered from internal injury because of holding back her laughter. She quickly shook her head and whispered back, "No... he had a crush on you since he was in high school. Now that you're playing a role together with him, he's dying from happiness. Sister Zueyi, be merciful to him and give him your autograph sign. Let him die with a smile."

Ran Xueyi: "..."
