Xia Wei glanced at Zhou Wei indifferently and suddenly realized who Director Chen was talking about.

She chuckled and asked instead of answering, “Why are you so sure that I’ll definitely embarrass myself? Are you a roundworm in my stomach, or do you have the ability to predict the future?”

“Xia Wei, you…”

Interrupting Zhou Wei’s retort, Xia Wei rolled her eyes at him and said coldly, “What do you mean by you? Did I say something wrong? Just shut up if no one invited you to speak. Do you really think everyone spoils you like your mother?”

This was the first time Chen Jing saw Xia Wei. He looked at this girl in surprise and felt that this Xia Wei was different from what Bai Ye described.

How was she a pitiful child who would swallow her anger? She was clearly a valiant and heroic martial artist!

This was also the first time Jian Tan heard Xia Wei call him “Mr. Jian Tan”. The smile in his eyes darkened when Zhou Wei mocked Xia Wei. After Xia Wei retaliated, he relaxed a little. It was an unpredictable change in mood.

He compared Xia Wei’s current state to her obedient bow just now. He felt that this girl was really cute. How could there be such a lively person in the world?

At this moment, no one could answer Best Actor Jian Tan’s question.

However, Director Chen called back the dazed Jian Tan. “Jian Tan, why don’t you act together with Xia Wei? It’s indeed a little difficult to perform this scene alone!”

Jian Tan quickly came back to his senses when he heard that. Seeing that everyone present was looking at him in confusion, he raised his hand to cover his lower lip slightly for a moment, trying to ease the awkwardness of him being distracted. “Alright, which part?”

Chen Jing looked at Jian Tan strangely, then handed him the script in his hand. He explained softly, “It’s the scene where the male lead and the supporting actress break up at the beach. Be careful with your emotions. We’re just trying!”

What Chen Jing meant was that he wanted Jian Tan to hold back a little when he acted. He did not want him to suppress Xia Wei too much in the performance. If Xia Wei could not let out her emotions, the effect would not be as expected!

Jian Tan naturally understood what Chen Jing meant. He just did not care because he felt that Xia Wei did not need him to go easy on her.

This thought came suddenly and strangely. Jian Tan did not know why.

However, he quickly put these aside because Xia Wei was already staring at him with anticipation and excitement. He felt that no one in this world could resist this pair of beautiful eyes.

Director Chen lightly sighed and looked at the two people in front of him worriedly.

Actually, if one ignored Xia Wei’s acting skills, this girl’s appearance was very good. Just as Bai Ye and Ma Lei had told him previously, the role of “Jiang Ren” seemed to be made for Xia Wei!

Zhou Wei looked at Xia Wei mockingly, already thinking about how to mock this thick-skinned woman later.

He felt that what Xin Xin and CEO Chen said made sense. An actress with average acting skills and a despicable character like Xia Wei should not appear on their “Zhaoyuan” production team. Xia Wei was not worthy of working with Jian Tan and Director Chen, nor was she worthy of working with him!

However, what Producer Zhou did not know was that the current Xia Wei was no longer the Xia Wei of the past. Before she transmigrated, she was a high-quality actress who had won many Best Actress Awards. She was an experienced actress in the same playing field as Jian Tan and was not some Tom, Dick, or Harry who did not know how to act.

He would immediately know that the “face-slapping” in this world could also come in a spectacular manner!

“Zhaoyuan” was a modern and suspenseful criminal investigation movie. The male lead, “Jiang Ze”, played by Jian Tan, was a criminal police officer who was investigating an old family case that happened many years ago. “Jiang Ren” was his younger sister with different parents and was also the most mysterious and dark person in this case.

She was as beautiful as a rose with dewdrops in the wee hours of the morning. She was the woman who should be loved by everyone.. She should have had nothing to do with this bloody case, but the truth was far from that…
