Chapter 1307 Plastic Sisterhood
At the same time, Jiang Mubai also returned to the crew of "The Allure of the City". After not seeing her for a few months, the atmosphere of the crew seemed to have changed subtly. Several actresses who had previously ridiculed her were now particularly enthusiastic and even a little flattering to her.
Jiang Mubai sneered in her heart. She had seen too much fake sisterhood in the entertainment industry.
"Sister Mubai, long time no see. You are getting more and more beautiful!" A heavily made-up actress walked up to Jiang Mubai with a twisted waist and said in a coquettish voice.
Jiang Mubai glanced at her calmly, and said in a cold tone: "What's the matter?"
The smile on the actress's face froze for a moment, but soon she regained her enthusiasm: "Nothing, I just want to chat with Sister Mu Bai and reminisce about the past."
"No need, I'm busy." Jiang Mubai refused bluntly and turned to walk towards his dressing room.
The actress stood there, her face turning pale and blue, with a hint of resentment in her eyes.
In the dressing room, Jiang Mubai's personal makeup artist Xiaoya was preparing her makeup. Xiaoya was the first friend Jiang Mubai met after her rebirth, and one of the few people she could trust.
"Sister Mubai, your aura has been getting stronger and stronger recently. You feel completely different from before." Xiaoya sighed while putting makeup on Jiang Mubai.
Jiang Mubai smiled at the mirror, his eyes flashing with a hint of coldness: "People always change, don't they?"
Xiaoya nodded and said nothing more. She knew that Jiang Mubai had experienced a lot and had changed a lot.
That afternoon, Jiang Mubai was filming an important scene, which required her to show the character's inner pain and struggle, and required extremely high acting skills.
"Action!" At the director's command, Jiang Mubai instantly immersed herself in the role. Her eyes were red and tears were welling up in them, but she forced herself not to let them fall. Her voice trembled as she portrayed the character's inner pain and despair vividly.
The scene was silent as everyone was shocked by Jiang Mubai's performance. Even the usually demanding director couldn't help but show admiration in his eyes.
"Cut!" the director called for a stop, and the audience burst into warm applause.
Jiang Mubai pulled herself away from the play with a faint smile on her face. She knew that she had succeeded and she had proved her worth with her own strength.
In the evening, Jiang Mubai returned to the apartment and found Cheng Yunchuan was already waiting for her there.
"How was it? How did you feel about your first day at work?" Jiang Mubai asked with a smile.
Cheng Yunchuan lazily leaned on the sofa, holding a glass of red wine in his hand, with a wicked smile on his face: "Not bad, but those old guys are all cunning and hard to deal with."
Jiang Mubai walked over to sit next to him, picked up another glass of red wine on the table, and took a sip: "Take your time, don't be anxious, you are Cheng Yunchuan, I believe you can handle them."
Cheng Yunchuan put down his wine glass, hugged Jiang Mubai into his arms, and whispered in her ear: "Of course I can handle them, but I want to handle you more."
Jiang Mubai glared at him coquettishly, but a blush appeared on her face.
"By the way, is there any movement from Qin Yuanqing?" Jiang Mubai suddenly thought of the lingering eldest young master of the Qin family.
Cheng Yunchuan sneered: "Him? Not to be feared. I have already sent people to keep an eye on him. His every move is under my control."
Jiang Mubai nodded with confidence, and then as if he remembered something, he said, "That's good. I met a very interesting person on the set today."
Jiang Mubai was about to speak when he was interrupted by a knock on the door. Cheng Yunchuan raised his eyebrows slightly with a hint of impatience.
"Come in."
The butler respectfully opened the door and bowed slightly: "Master, dinner is ready. Master invites you and Madam to come down to eat."
Cheng Yunchuan stood up, took Jiang Mubai into his arms, lowered his head and whispered in her ear: "Let's go and see what tricks the old man is going to play next."
Jiang Mubai smiled gently, with a hint of cunning in her eyes. She took Cheng Yunchuan's arm and walked downstairs gracefully.
In the restaurant, Mr. Qin sat at the main seat, Qin Yuanqing and Li Shufen sat on both sides. The atmosphere was so solemn that it seemed to be frozen. When he saw Cheng Yunchuan and Jiang Mubai appear, Mr. Qin forced a smile on his face.
"Yunchuan, Mubai, come and sit down."
After Cheng Yunchuan and Jiang Mubai sat down, Old Man Qin cleared his throat and said, "Yunchuan, now that you are back, it's time to officially return to the Qin family. I plan to hold a banquet for you in a few days to announce it to the world and let those old guys know that there is still someone in the Qin family who can inherit the Qin family."
Qin Yuanqing's face changed, and he was about to open his mouth to refute, but Li Shufen secretly pulled his sleeve, so he could only shut up reluctantly.
Cheng Yunchuan looked at Mr. Qin with a half-smile, and said indifferently: "Okay, Grandpa!"
"Grandpa, I'm afraid he is not qualified." Qin Yuanqing couldn't help but speak.
Old Master Qin glanced at Qin Yuanqing and there was a hint of displeasure in his eyes, but he quickly concealed it: "Look at the stupid things you have done. You are not as steady as Yunchuan."
"Thank you grandpa for supporting me. I am not very familiar with the Qin family's business now, but I believe my brother will help me." Cheng Yunchuan's words made Qin Yuanqing's face look bad instantly. It was not easy for him to lose his temper in front of his grandfather.
"This is natural. Yuanqing still knows the importance of things." Old man Qin's words made Qin Yuanqing's face look worse and worse. Cheng Yunchuan looked at Qin Yuanqing with pride.
The atmosphere at the table instantly dropped to freezing point, and Li Shufen quickly tried to smooth things over: "Okay, let's eat, things should be settled, and we can take our time."
When they were almost done eating, Cheng Yunchuan took Jiang Mubai away from the table: "Grandpa, we'll leave after we finish eating."
Jiang Mubai nodded slightly, stood up and followed Cheng Yunchuan out of the restaurant, leaving Mr. Qin and others looking at each other in bewilderment.
The next morning, Jiang Mubai arrived at the set of "The Allure of the City" early. Today's scene was a rivalry between the female lead and the second female lead, and it was also the first time that Jiang Mubai and Ren Xueer faced off head-on.
"Sister Mu Bai, long time no see." Ren Xueer put on delicate makeup and had a hypocritical smile on her face.
Jiang Mubai glanced at her indifferently and said in a cold tone: "Yeah, long time no see."
"I heard that Sister Mu Bai was a movie queen in the past. Her acting skills must be great. I have to learn from her today." Ren Xueer said with a hint of provocation in her tone.
Jiang Mubai chuckled: "Same here."
After the filming began, Ren Xueer indeed showed her excellent acting skills, portraying the insidiousness and cunningness of the second female lead vividly. Jiang Mubai was not to be outdone and portrayed the forbearance and strength of the heroine just right.
After the scene, both of them performed well, and even the director couldn't help but praise: "This scene was filmed wonderfully, and the acting skills of both of them were very good."
During the break, Ren Xueer walked up to Jiang Mubai and pretended to be concerned and said, "Sister Mubai, your lines don't seem to be very solid. Do you want me to help you practice?"
