| ← Ch.014 | Ch.016 → |
Li Xiaolu nervously looked at the judges panel while they looked at her in daze. She was extremely confident in her acting skills because she had her past life experiences.
So was my acting that bad for these people to not even say a word. Dejected, Li Xiaolu looked at her feet.
It was not known who started clapping first but soon everyone was on their feet clapping. Li Xiaolu lifted her head up as happy tears flew from her eyes.
" You are selected...." Director Ye laughed.
"What did you say your name was? " Judge 1 asked.
"Li Xiaolu..."
"Miss Li your were phenomenal.... Your acting skills are very good.... You would be perfect for the role..."
"Yes.... yes.... I can still feel the goosebumps all over my body.... It felt like the pyscho sister was right in front of me..."
"Yes... yes... Miss Li your acting was so real... You made my character come to life.... ." the writer praised.
Li Xiaolu smiled as she gave a bow, "Thank you everyone..."
Everybody calmed down as the director looked at Li Xiaolu, " Miss Li, if you don't mind can I ask you some questions? "
"Yes please...." Li Xiaolu nodded.
" Have you ever acted in any movie? " Director Ye asked.
Li Xiaolu shook her head, " No..."
"Then have you ever taken acting classes?"
"No Director Ye...."
Hearing her, everybody couldn't help but nod there head. This girl's acting arw truly terrific. And her temperamental is good too.. Seeing her nobody could say that now she had just acted the pyscho sister's role...
"If your keep working hard, you can became a really good actress..." Director Ye praised.
"Thank you Director Ye..." Li Xiaolu said politely.
He smiled as he turned towards his assistant, " Go call her manager...."
Outside, Yang Mi knitted her brows nervously. She didn't know what was going on inside. Suddenly the door opened and she saw the assistant walking towards her.
"Everybody can leave.... . the role has been decided...." she said and smiled politely, " Miss Yang Mi the director is calling you inside.."
"What?? " Xifeng shouted as she stood up abruptly." Is that rookie selected? "
Yang Mi glarred at her while the assistant shot her a irritated glance, " That's none of your business Miss Xifeng... You should only know that you are not selected so you can leave...."
Seeing that the assistant was talking to her like that Xifeng lost her calm and shouted, " No... I want to know was that rookie selected?"
"You will get to know once the movie is released... Maintain your image and don't try to create a ruckus...."
Xifeng immediately shut up and glarred at the assistant and stormed off. Yang Mi was too tensed for Li Xiaolu that she didn't even gave any attention to Xifeng's barking.
She entered the room and saw people talking with Li Xiaolu. Is she selected? Putting on a smile, she stood besides Li Xiaolu.
When everyone saw Miss Yang Mi they immediately realised and nodded their head. Director Ye chuckled, " No wonder Miss Li is so wonderful... She is Miss Yang Mi's artist... I must say you really have found a treasure this time..."
All the little worriness, that Yang Mi had vanished. She laughed, " It's the other way around, Director Ye.... She found us..."
Everybody laughed as one of the judges who was also a producer of this flim said, "Miss Li then your decision is really very correct. Working with Marvellous Universe and that too under Yang Mi.... It would really enhance your talents...."
Li Xiaolu nodded in approval."So let's sign the contract..." Director Ye said.
After all the paperwork was done and all the matters regarding the flim were taken care by Yang Mi they both left.
"Sister Yang Mi since I have gotten the role, then let me treat you to a nice dinner..." Li Xiaolu said.
Yang Mi nodded, " Okay..."
They both sat in Yang Mi's car, as she drove them towards a restaurant. Inside the restaurant, they ordered hotpot.
Li Xiaolu had two reason for taking Yang Mi to dinner. One was that she was truly happy for getting the role and second was that since she was reborn, she is afraid of fire.
Even if it is a small fire, she gets extremely terrified. So, from the day she had been awake she never cooked. When she was hungry, she would just order something go eat.
They were both hungry so as soon as their food was placed, they start eating. Suddenly Li Xiaolu thought of something.
"Sister Yang Mi, tommorow there is a party in the Li mansion for Li Yifeng's success. Would you come? " she asked.
"Xiaolu I would love to come but tommorow there is really something important that I have to do... So I won't be able to make it...."
"It's fine Sister Yang Mi...."
"Xiaolu if you don't mind can I ask you something?" Yang Mi asked nervously. She knew it wasn't her place or right to ask such a personal question to Xiaolu but she couldn't help it.
Li Xiaolu nodded."Are you planning to go to the Li Mansion tommorow? "
"Yes..." Li Xiaolu said.
"Umm... don't get me wrong... but your parents hid your identity for some reason.... so going there wouldn't you expose yourself? "
"Sister Yang Mi... at first I thought that they were hiding my identity for protecting me.... but lately I got to know that they are doing it for their own selfishness.... . So I guess it's time to change it..."
Yang Mi looked at Li Xiaolu and felt bad for her. She didn't knew what had happened with Li Xiaolu that have forced her to take this step. But she was clever enough to guess that whatever the Li family did to her was not good.
Otherwise why would a girl who acted as an substitute for her younger sister oppose her? Why would a girl that had kept her identity hidden for so long would want to expose it?
But she had enough faith and trust in Li Xiaolu. Her lips lifted up in a smile, " Then I guess I might be missing a very good show tommorow...."
Li Xiaolu laughed, " Indeed...."
