Chapter 508: It’s Boring to Get the First Female Lead Just Like That
Early the next morning, Wang Jing brought Xiyuan to the police station.
As they were sitting in the police station, Xiyuan looked like a bewildered child, as he explained the entire situation about the person who had coerced and threatened him to act that way. After the police heard his explanation, he made a transcript of the report before he said, “Okay, we already know the whole story now. You can go home and wait for further news from us.”
Xiyuan was taken aback, and he immediately asked, “Aren’t you going to arrest me? Aren’t you arresting me?”
“We will conduct our investigation according to law...”
“Let’s go home and wait for news then,” Wang Jing said as she patted Xiyuan on the shoulder.
Xiyuan looked up at Wang Jing, before putting on his cap and mask. After that, Wang Jing escorted him home immediately.
“Starting from today, I will suspend all of your work and activities. I will not take any new activities or plan any new schedule for you for the time being. You should take a good rest at home,” Wang Jing whispered to Xiyuan before she left. At this time, the child who had made the mistake would have to wait patiently.
“I see. Okay, Sister Jing,” Xiyuan nodded as he sat down on the sofa.
However, Xiyuan waited nervously on the sofa for a whole day, only to receive the news that the police would not open the case.
“Why aren’t they filing a case against me? I...”
“The phone number that you provided is an empty number and it seemed like we cannot reach the other party at all. Moreover, we have also asked the victim about this matter and all that he said was that he was hit by a motorcycle. However, the victim believed that it was completely accidental. As there was no one nearby at that time, there are no eyewitnesses to the accident and the accident was not recorded by any surveillance camera. So...young lad, the police do not have enough evidence to file a case.”
Xiyuan was pardoned, but he did not feel happy about it.
In fact, Han Xiaozheng and the motorcyclist’s information had already been processed and hidden by the Han family. This was because they did not want the police officer to conduct any investigation into the Han family simply because of Han Xiaozheng’s actions.
As for Jin Mingchen and Lu Jingqi, even though the police kept questioning them, the both of them insisted that it was an accident, and that they did not suffer any serious injuries. Moreover, they said that they would not be pursuing the matter because they have already been discharged from the hospital for a long time.
Jin Mingchen and Lu Jingqi were obviously protecting him.
Xiyuan covered his face, as he felt very uncomfortable about the way things turned out in the end. At this time, all the members of Fixed Star suddenly arrived at Xiyuan’s house.
“You...why are you guys here?” After Xi Yuan opened the door, he was very surprised when he saw the members’ bright and smiling faces.
“Hey! I came to your house to look for my stolen underwear...” the captain said jokingly as he pushed Xiyuan away and walked right into the house.
“The game console that he just bought is not bad. He was bragging about it several times when we were still having our rehearsals. I have to bring it back with me tonight,” another one of the boys quickly picked up the game console that Xiyuan put on the shelf.
“I even brought my dog here today...” Erbing who was walking at the back replied joyfully as he led a German Shepherd into the house.
Xiyuan watched as the few people enter his house before he wiped away the tears on his face. “Put your dog outside, dumb ass!”
“Beauty pig, just nibble on his sofa since it’s made of leather anyway.”
“Oh my god. Is that your dog’s name? It’s a perfect match for you!”
The few boys were very noisy as they continue chatting and at this time, all the grievances of the past disappeared in an instance.
...
Late at night, in the dance studio.
Lu Jingqi was practicing his dance moves alone and he no longer needed to wear a mask.
Wang Jing passed by the dance studio when she was getting off work, and when she saw that he did not go to the Xiyuan’s house for the party, she walked into the studio and asked, “Why are you doing dance alone here?”
“I’m afraid that they will feel uncomfortable if I am there,” Lu Jingqi answered as he wiped the sweat off his face. “Isn’t this good too?”
“Yes, you are really very kind, but Jingqi, you are a secret weapon to secure the future of K Agency. However, you do not have to be alone. Sister Yuning would not want to see you like this. She stayed up late and worked overtime, just so she could plan how we can build you up and maximize the curiosity that the netizens are feeling about your identity now.”
“At the same time, this also means that you will face more challenges in the future. Jingqi, you are very similar to your Sister Yuning because the both of you have missed out on the opportunity to learn because of your destiny. Other people might try to use this as an excuse criticize you in the future, but I hope that just like Sister Yuning, you will always respond with facts and that you will not have any doubts about your own ability.”
Lu Jingqi picked up his coat before he nodded at Wang Jing. “Okay.”
“Let me tell you a few more happy things. Now, it seems like the entertainment circle and media is no longer interested in those videos from the past. They want to know who you are now. But after only appearing in one dance performance, everyone is already actively talking about you. You already have a lot of fans right now.”
His future...
What could he expect?
...
Jiang Yuning returned to the crew and she continued to devote herself to the intense filming schedule for <Yan Huasu>.
At this time, Hou Da was very dissatisfied because she only had tickets for the stands, right at the back of the concert hall. Therefore, after she came back, she punished Empress Jiang by asking her to make up for all the progress that had fallen behind schedule in the past three days.
“You said that you are a good music student. Why aren’t you trying to become a singer or dancer? Why are you aiming to become an actress?”
Jiang Yuning: “Is this the reason why you are mad at me?”
“I just feel that it is really a pity that you have to give up on your music degree. If you didn’t have to lose out on those five years, you would have already been popular all over the country. I have already decided. After <Yan Huasu> gains a lot of popularity, I will go on to make a music show, just so I can feature you as a legacy and music prodigy.”
As soon as Hou Da finished her sentence, she rushed off immediately.
Jiang Yuning chuckled before she continued to recite her lines.
It has already been five years. Perhaps she was upset in the past but now that she was an actress, she felt that everything was worth it after all.
Since the progress of the filming was already delayed because of her, Jiang Yuning placed all of her focus and attention on filming and she stayed in the crew obediently. Vera did not plan any other assignments and activities for her.
Aside from recording the next episode of <Secret of the Nation>, Jiang Yuning would continue to focus solely on filming <Yan Huasu>.
Jiang Yuning felt relieved.
On the other hand, Wang Jing had already planned out everything for Lu Jingqi. She did not want to reveal too much information to the public but during an interview a few days later, Wang Jing casually mentioned that in the video that was leaked in the past, Lu Jingqi was in that state because he was injured at that time. She clarified that the rumor that Lu Jingqi was born with mental retardation was not true and the only reason why the video was leaked out to the public was because the family doctor was unscrupulous.
This way, the young fangirls felt even more distressed for Lu Jingqi.
He is really pitiful. He gets yelled at and insulted every day. Why doesn’t the young brother open his own social media account and post a selfie for us?
Jiang Yuning was not worried and she did not follow up on Lu Jingqi because she knew that Wang Jing was very experienced and good at her job.
What she was looking forward to was for Lu Jingzhi to visit her on set.
...
At this time, a few of the younger actors and actresses were gathered as they were waiting to film their scene. They were gossiping and discussing the relationship between a young actress and a rich young master.
“I heard that the young actress was given the role of the first female lead in a movie because of her relationship with him.”
“Actually, I am no longer envious of those artistes who made it to the top solely because of their connections. I will wait and I will work harder so that I can make it to the top based on my own ability one day. I think that the most important thing for actors and actresses is experience.”
“That’s right. Of course, we all entered the entertainment industry for the sake of popularity, but it is also because we enjoy acting. So, it’s boring to get the first female lead just like that.”
“Which movie is it?”
“<Desperate Line of Defense>. It is a disaster film. It seemed as though the whole had crumbled because of a virus, and only one country is still standing strong...”
As soon as Jiang Yuning heard those words, she spat out the water that she was drinking.
Why did it feel as though Vera had just handed her the script for this movie yesterday?
