Chapter 29 She Still Chooses a Female Part 2

Director Li didn't have time to pay attention to Lin Yurou for the time being. Instead, he looked at the leading actress, then at Shi Wan. With an awkward look in his eyes, he cautiously asked Shi Wan, "It just so happens that none of us have signed the contract yet. Do you want to play the leading actress or..."

The original female lead opened her mouth slightly. Isn't Director Li too frivolous? Judging from this performance, the sponsor on the phone just now is really awesome! Zhan Rongchuan can't get the female lead of this drama even with 65 million?

Shi Wan looked around at all the actors. Their eyes had changed, from disdain just now to fear now. They were afraid that she would bear a grudge for targeting them just now and replace them.

Shi Wan simply said, "I believe in Director Li and the screenwriter's vision. From the beginning, they felt that I was more suitable for the second female lead. So I will not ruin the show because of my own selfish desires."

Shi Wan knew that if she really played the leading female role, it might be more beneficial to her plan, but the heat of bullying had not yet passed, and if she tried to snatch the leading female role now, she would become the target of public criticism.

Second, she now likes the role of the second female lead more, as if she can empathize with her. Maybe she is not a good person!

After Shi Wan said this, the screenwriter and director felt warm in their hearts. Shi Wan gave them a way out and recognition.

Director Li was even happier. Everyone was happy. All three parties were able to get investments, and he didn't have to offend Zhan Rongchuan.

But the other actors all looked at Shi Wan in disbelief. Everyone knew that the female lead in the novel was very popular. If she performed well, she would definitely win the love of a large number of fans of the original novel.

With Shi Wan's acting skills, she is more than qualified to play the leading female role, so why doesn't she want it?

Shi Wan could understand their confusion, but now she just wanted to play the role of the second female lead well. She put herself in their shoes and decided to hate it if she was hated!

After everyone signed the contract and decided on their roles, Shi Wan finally felt relieved.

It was dark when we came out of the hotel.

After much persuasion from Qin Shuochen, the two of them went to the Qin family's private restaurant for dinner.

Qin Shuochen was very excited: "Sister, was it Brother Zhan Xu who called Director Li just now?"

Shi Wan paused for a moment, his voice a little low: "It should be."

She didn't know how he got the money to invest in this play. If he asked his family for money, then... would Zhan Junxiong be disappointed with Zhan Xu?

Even if she makes money by running her company, will Zhan Junxiong still not really look down on Zhan Xu?

Qin Shuochen noticed the subtlety of Shi Wan's emotions and immediately changed the subject, asking curiously, "Sister, why would Zhan Rongchuan invest money to help you? Didn't he say that he and you are mortal enemies?"

Shi Wan chuckled, "I told him about his embarrassing incident that day, and he must have been so angry that he was confused for a while."

"What's embarrassing?" Qin Shuochen stretched his neck, acting like a gossiper in every way.

"I spanked him when he was a kid."

Qin Shuochen was stunned for a long while, then he suddenly laughed so hard that he fell on the cushion, flapping his long legs: "I am dying of laughter! Zhan Rongchuan will also have this day? Hahaha..."

He laughed for a long time, then sat up suddenly, looking at Shi Wan expectantly: "Sister, I heard from my sister that you have a lot of black history of big guys. Do you have a video of Zhan Rongchuan being spanked by you? How much? Sell it to me!"

His voice trembled slightly with excitement.

"No, at that time I didn't know that keeping videos would be beneficial." Shi Wan also felt a little regretful.

Qin Shuochen looked regretful and sat obediently on the cushion. He started laughing while eating, and his laughter was more of gloating.

In the previous life, Shi Wan and Qin Shuochen's only contact ended when they graduated from high school. Before graduation, Qin Shuochen was proud of her and would shout "Sister Shi Wan!" whenever he met her on the street to show that he knew Shi Wan. It was also obvious that he was proud at that time.

However, Shi Wanyi never thought of taking advantage of these relationships, because she didn't know how many of these people really liked her, and how many of them just wanted to laugh at her.

Now that I think about it, I am indeed a joke. I could have lived a happy life as the heroine of a novel, but I chose to be the second female lead who had a bad ending.

It was almost time to join the group, so Shi Wan didn’t indulge herself and just had a simple meal.

Qin Shuochen was in the same situation as her, also a dedicated actor, so when they saw there was still a lot of food left, they both felt guilty.

After a long while, Shi Wan asked, "Do you think Zhan Xu will be angry if I bring these back for him to eat?"

Qin Shuochen took a breath and said, "Sister, please don't hurt me, okay?"

After he finished speaking, he smiled and said, "You can send it to Zhan Nanyi. It might make her angry!"

He said this excitedly and called the waiter to pack up.

Shi Wan noticed something, smiled, and said nothing.

Seeing that Shi Wan didn't ask, Qin Shuochen lost his temper and said, "Sister, why don't you ask me and Zhan Nanyi about the situation?"

"If Zhan Nanyi likes you, she will take the initiative to find me after she finds out that we are filming together." Shi Wan explained.

Qin Shuochen looked at Shi Wan as if she were a god, "My sister, you are too amazing, aren't you? You actually knew that I was in love with her unrequitedly!"

"Not necessarily. You can try to tell her that we are in the same crew now."

Shi Wan sat up, put on his shoes, and left the private room alone.

Although this is a very private dish of the Qin family, she doesn't want a new scandal to appear before she has cleared the stain. Although the scandal may be hot, it is a fatal blow to someone like her who has no works.

Shi Wan drove back to Zhan Xu's apartment.

She stood in front of the door and suddenly felt very confused. Why did she subconsciously come back here? Shouldn't she go back to her own home?

After hesitating for a moment, she turned around and drove back to her home.

Mao Yuzhen, Shi Xinyan and Shi Zhenqiang are all here today.

When Shi Wan saw Shi Zhenqiang, she remembered that she had forgotten to call Shi Zhenqiang back.

The three of them are having dinner.

Mao Yuzhen was the first to ask: "Has Wanwan eaten yet?"

Although she asked this, she called Huang Ma the next moment: "Huang Ma, prepare a set of bowls and chopsticks!"

Shi Wan ignored her and just asked Shi Zhenqiang: "Did you call yesterday?"

Shi Zhenqiang put down his bowl and chopsticks: "Let's talk in the study."

Mao Yuzhen glanced at Shi Zhenqiang.

Shi Zhenqiang nodded calmly, meaning that he understood.

Shi Wan also saw this scene. It seemed that Mao Yuzhen wanted Shi Zhenqiang to talk to her about something.

Arrived at the study room.

Shi Zhenqiang stared at Shi Wan. Seeing the clarity in her eyes, he suspected that he was just imagining things, but he still asked, "Is your assistant called Guan Yihan?"

Shi Wan nodded, "My classmate's aunt."

Shi Zhenqiang nodded thoughtfully. With such a relationship, it made sense to ask Guan Yihan to be his assistant.

"Then do you know what our relationship was like before?"

Shi Wan looked confused, "Are you still related to her?"

After asking, she did not forget to glance up and down at Shi Zhenqiang with disdain.

Shi Zhenqiang paused, as if he had been hit by a thousand critical points in Shi Wan's eyes just now. He pointed at Shi Wan's face and said angrily: "If it weren't for me, would you have this face?"

Shi Wan curled her lips in disdain, sat down on the single sofa in front of Shi Zhenqiang's desk, crossed her legs naturally, and said nonchalantly: "Don't tell me that she dated you before."

Shi Zhenqiang frowned slightly: "She liked me before."

After a moment, he emphasized again: "I like it very much. I have to have it."

"Pfft!"

Shi Wan laughed out loud without giving any face.
