Chapter 1219: Self-Satisfaction

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

News spread that Jiang Bilian offended the female lead Yang Mengqi and was kicked off the set. As such, the crew hoped that Xia Yingluo would replace her because they said that she was more professional and better at acting.

Xia Yingluo grinned in satisfaction. This was the most desirable outcome!

A few days ago, whether she was in class or eating at the cafeteria, she was always fed up with the ridicule of Jiang Bilian’s supporters, so how could she be happy? “Hahaha, this is called karma!” On the way to the cafeteria, she laughed as she spoke to Jin Ling’er.

Jin Ling’er was also very happy. “Serves them right!” She did not know if this was a coincidence or if her pleading with Du Zheng actually worked. However, this was not important. The important thing was that her good friend finally achieved her wish, gave her competitor a harsh slap on the face and regained what should have been hers from the start.

As for Du Zheng? They never exchanged contact information in the past, so regardless of whether he interfered, she had no way of thanking him. At most, she could pray for his safety the next time she went to the temple.

As such, she had a good impression of Chairman Du, who was the dream man of thousands of young women.

Xia Yingluo linked arms with her. As they walked, she expressed her doubt. “It’s really strange. Jiang Bilian is not a crude person. Why did she offend the female lead for no good reason?”

Jin Ling’er gloated at her misfortune. “Haha, Yingluo, do you even have to say it? Jiang Bilian deserves this misfortune. She accidentally sat on the female lead Yang Mengqi’s chair. You know that there’s a hierarchy in the cast, and it is a taboo to sit on the chairs of those who are more important. Yang Mengqi exploded in anger and immediately wanted her replaced. We all know how important Yang Mengqi and how difficult she is to please. The crew definitely had to take care of her and could only chase Jiang Bilian away. Hahaha.”

Xia Yingluo also thought it was humorous. “Over this small pathetic matter?”

Her beautifully crafted lips curved upwards. Wicked people were bound to be harassed by the same kind of people.

The two of them laughed happily. Before they reached the entrance of the cafeteria, suddenly, someone called out from behind them. “Xia Yingluo.”

Xia Yingluo and Jin Ling’er spun around and saw the head teacher rush towards them.

“This is the script of the film.” He handed a stack of bound paper to Xia Yingluo. “You should take a good look at the female assassin’s part and start with the crew tomorrow.”

Xia Yingluo did not accept it. “I am not filming it.”

“What? You’re not filming it?”

“What? You’re really not filming it?”

Jin Ling’er and the head teacher exclaimed in unison.

Xia Yingluo raised her chin proudly. “Who does the crew think I am? They think they can use me as they please, kick me aside when they don’t want me and think they can get me back once they regret their decision? I refuse to serve them as they please!”

The head teacher was so mad that he was hurting internally. This girl had not debuted yet but had a bigger temper than many big stars! “How can you not shoot it? Do you know what a good opportunity this is? I know that you’ve been wronged for some time, but in the entertainment industry, it is normal for people to feel aggrieved sometimes. If you can’t even deal with this, how can you survive once you’ve debuted?”

“I don’t care,” Xia Yingluo stubbornly said. “No matter what, I am not accepting this role. If they disturb me again, I might even really hire a killer to shut them up!”

“Who do you think you are?” The head teacher expected better from her. “If you really refuse to shoot this, in the future when another opportunity like this arises, the camp won’t even give it to you. The way you’re acting now would cause you to be blacklisted and marks will be deducted from your final exam. After that, you will have a lower priority rating for the use of our resources. Are you willing to accept these consequences?”

“I’ll accept it.” Xia Yingluo was unhappy. As long as she had food to eat and a place to sleep, she did not care about making her debut, becoming famous or getting first place in the exam.

However, Jin Ling’er was extremely anxious and quickly said, “Head teacher, don’t be angry! Yingluo is just insensible. I will persuade her again. Don’t turn down the crew yet. After Yingluo thinks about it again, she will definitely shoot her role!”

The head teacher glared at them. “Do you think this a game for kids? This is urgent. If Xia Yingluo refuses to shoot, I will reject them now and not delay their progress!”

After that, he turned around and left.

Jin Ling’er was furious and said to Xia Yingluo, “Yingluo! What sort of temper was that? It wasn’t easy for an opportunity like this to come! How could you reject it?! You... you really are the death of me!”

“I don’t want it.” Xia Yingluo said, “Troublesome.”

Jin Ling’er stomped her foot and tried to persuade her till her mouth was dry. However, she was not able to move her at all.

“Forget it, I don’t care about you anymore!” Jin Ling’er was fed up. “In the future, it’s your business if you can’t make money or become famous!”

Seeing that she was really angry, Xia Yingluo laughed and said, “Ok, calm down. You know that I haven’t been in good health recently and often feel pain at random times. Do you think that I really don’t want to film? I am not well, and I can’t be honest with the head teacher. What if he wants me to quit school? You know that there is a precedent for unhealthy people to drop out of school. I can only spin a reason to lie to him.”

“Really?” Jin Ling’er asked half-doubtfully.

“Yes.” Xia Yingluo earnestly nodded.

Jin Ling’er became worried. “Yingluo, are you ok? You scared me to death when you were in pain the last time. I thought that you were fine because you haven’t been acting up recently, but it seems that you are still hurting?”

“When I am tired, it hurts. When I am not tired, I feel fine.” Xia Yingluo brushed her question aside. Besides, the main gist was that she would be fine if she did not film the scene.

Only then was Jin Ling’er relieved and stopped persuading her to shoot the scene.

At night, she received a phone call from a stranger.

As Jin Ling’er had a mask on her face and was wearing her pajamas, she answered it unwillingly. “Who is this?” She muttered quietly, “Who is calling in the middle of the night?” She glanced sideways at the direction of the bathroom door. Xia Yingluo was currently taking a shower and the sound of rushing water could be heard. Thus, she went to the balcony with her phone.

“Hello?” She said.

“Jin Ling’er?” On the other end of the phone, a strange man’s voice was heard.

Jin Ling’er frowned. “Who are you?”

“Du Zheng,” the man said.

Jin Ling’er froze for a moment. It was the well-built man that she encountered outside the film set that day. How did he get her number? She blurted out the first question she had in mind.

“It was easy to find.” The man did not say much and only asked, “The director told me that Xia Yingluo was unwilling to accept the role. Why?”

Jin Ling’er was a little muddleheaded. Could it be that the sudden role replacement was due to him?
