Young Master Qin Keeps Coveting Me After I Beat Him Up

Chapter 136: I’m Still Pursuing Her

“I mean, it’s mainly because the previous method wasn’t too good.” Earning Merit Points wasn’t easy. Jiang Xun sighed, “I’m getting more and more fans now since most of the netizens who are watching the livestream have become my fans, so less people are criticizing me. At this point, no matter how difficult it is for me to make a short video or how unbelievable it is, they won’t find it strange anymore.”

There were fewer haters that she could farm points from!

At that moment, the waiters arrived with their food. Deng Xu turned to Jiang Xun and said, “Think about it. Which character do you prefer? You don’t have to be anxious; we’re short on time today, so I’m afraid we won’t be able to hold an audition. I’ll make an appointment with President Wang about the time for the audition later, so please feel free to go try out.”

“I saw your skills in ‘Accelerated Flight.’ Your movements are very neat. Have you had prior training?” Deng Xu asked, beginning to cut up his food.

Jiang Xun nodded and quickly made up an excuse. “In the past, there was an old man in our village who was a veteran. I learned grappling from him.”

It was fortunate that there actually was such a person in their village, or Jiang Xun wouldn’t have been able to explain where she learned this neat set of skills.

Deng Xu smiled in response to her answer. “That’s why I wanted to contact you, you see. It’s not impossible for actors to learn fighting scenes on the spot, but if you want to fight neatly and beautifully, you still have to have some real skills.”

“It’s a pity that you don’t have any acting experience. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have been given such a small role,” he said. He was very good at talking.

Jiang Xun naturally understood what he meant—actors might not necessarily know any martial arts techniques, but they might be able to get important roles because of their ability to act and because they were famous.

Jiang Xun, however, was an internet celebrity and did not have any acting experience. Hence, she didn’t really mind her small roles, nor did she mind the few offers she’d gotten thus far.

However, in front of Qin Mufeng, Deng Xu did not dare to be so straightforward. “This is the impression I had of you. As for the specifics, you’ll still have to audition for the role before we can disclose more. There definitely won’t be a problem with the martial arts aspects of the roles, but the key to success will be the acting ability,” he said.

Yicheng was already a little unhappy when he heard this. From what he was hearing, it seemed that Deng Xu wasn’t actually giving Jiang Xun the role. He was just giving her a chance to audition.

Then what was the point? If Jiang Xun wanted to audition, she could just go to many other production teams. They didn’t need this chance, did they?

......

“It doesn’t matter if I try.” Jiang Xun had the same thought as Yicheng. She smiled indifferently and said, “If I can pass, it can be considered as an encouragement to me, a layman, on my way to acting. I can still go to other filming crews for auditions. Who knows, I might even find a role that I like better.”

If someone else had said that, Deng Xu would have left long ago.

However, when he first looked at Qin Mufeng’s reaction, he saw that his eyes were unbelievably gentle as he gazed at Jiang Xun with a smile. “That’s true,” Mufeng agreed.

Deng Xu:”...”

He had long heard of Qin Mufeng, but he had never expected the man himself to be so unprincipled!

“Jiang Xun, you’ve misunderstood,” Deng Xu defended himself as his mind raced, “I’m asking you to audition just to see your performance level and point out some deficiencies as soon as possible. You can practice well before the shooting starts to save time.”

Deng Xu had already thought it through. Even if Jiang Xun didn’t have any talent in acting, he still had to settle on her. He couldn’t afford to offend Qin Mufeng.

“What you need to think about now is which role you want,” he said.

Jiang Xun had the sneaking suspicion that even if she were to ask for a role as the female lead, Deng Xun would actually agree, even if it was through gritted teeth.

“Then I want the role of Bi Yuewu.” Jiang Xun had already decided.

“Bi Yuewu?” Screenwriter Ma was worried that Jiang Xun did not understand this line of work. Not only was her acting basic at best, but she also did not know anything about the role selection.

He kindly said, “Are you sure? Bi Yuewu is a villain, so she’s an easy target for audience vitriol. Although she won’t have many scenes, it won’t stop the audience from lambasting her—not just because she’s a mass murderer, but also because she likes the male lead. The male lead also has a vague impression of her, and this is the point that makes her unforgivable in the audience’s eyes. If you don’t act well, you will be scolded for your poor acting skills, and if you act well, the audience will tie you to the character and scold you nonetheless.”

“On the contrary, if you were to act as Yu Hengjun, she wouldn’t have many scenes. Even if your acting skills were poor, the audience won’t focus because their attention will be on the main character. In addition, Yu Hengjun will be a woman dressed in men’s clothes, which is a popular trend nowadays—”

“I still want to act as Bi Yuewu.” Jiang Xun looked at Deng Xu and Screenwriter Ma very sincerely.

What a joke. Who would criticize her if she were to act as Yu Hengjun?

“I think Bi Yuewu’s role is quite good. There are contradictions, contrasts, and reversals involved in her plot, which sound challenging.” Jiang Xun’s face was confident and unafraid of facing a challenge. Her unyielding perseverance and perseverance in facing difficulties almost touched Yicheng’s little old heart.

Screenwriter Ma thought that this role was indeed challenging, but for a newbie who had no acting experience, it was too much. However, since Jiang Xun was so persistent, neither he nor Deng Xu could say anything more.

“We will have an audition in Shanghai this week.” Deng Xu took out his phone and looked at his schedule, then looked up at Jiang Xun and Yicheng. “When is Jiang Xun free this week?”

Jiang Xun and Yicheng confirmed the time. On Wednesday, they would be flying to Shanghai for the audition.

“Director, how long will the filming process take? I need to apply for leave from school in advance.”

“Bi Yuewu doesn’t have many scenes, so the shooting should be completed in a week at most. It won’t affect your studies,” Deng Xu replied with a smile.

After the matter was settled, it was a pleasant surprise for Deng Xu to run into Qin Mufeng at a dinner party. “Mr. Qin, I saw your participation in ‘Accelerated Flight.’ I really wasn’t expecting you of all people to take part in a variety show. Would you be interested in making cameo appearances in movies and TV series in the future?” he asked.

Mufeng smiled faintly. “There’s no need for any cameos. I’ll focus on supporting Jiang Jiang.”

Deng Xu was shocked and asked hesitantly, “Forgive me for being presumptuous, but are you and Miss Jiang...in a relationship?”

“I would like to be.” Mufeng smiled. “I’m still pursuing her.”

Jiang Xun: “...”

He didn’t avoid the question at all!

Yicheng’s ears pricked up at the conversation and his eyes lit up.

The President had finally admitted that he was pursuing Jiang Xun!

When Deng Xu and Screenwriter Ma looked at Jiang Xun again, their faces were filled with admiration. They didn’t dare to treat her as a small internet celebrity anymore.

This dinner could be considered as a feast for the guests and the host.

When everyone left the room and walked out, Deng Xu said regretfully, “It’s a pity that we can’t drink this time. If there’s another chance, I’ll definitely have a good drink with you, Mr. Qin.”

“Definitely.” Mufeng nodded in agreement. He was as gentle as a jade and as graceful as a young master. He did not give off the unapproachable aura that the Qin Family’s young master was rumored to have.

Deng Xu chuckled. He knew that it was all because of Jiang Xun, so he couldn’t help but admire her even more.
