Chapter 20: My sister is brimming with confidence.
In fact, with the old man's intervention, Song Nanxi would definitely not suffer any losses.
And Grandpa Song will definitely stand on Song Nanxi's side.
But on what grounds?
She, Song Nanxi, deserves to be a tool in Song Yirou and Zheng Yuzhe's 'brotherly love play'?
After winning over Song Yirou, she wanted to dump the used and discarded goods on Song Nanxi and establish herself as a strong and independent female protagonist.
Think beautifully.
-
Song Yirou was getting annoyed to death by Zheng Yuzhe. In order to let her parents know how much she had suffered in the ancestral hall because of Song Nanxi, she specially used her points to exchange for a 'severe injury buff' to make her knees look very serious.
Zheng Yuzhe disregarded everything and took her to the hospital, even forcing her to be admitted.
During that time, he showered her with care and concern, completely crossing that line and making it clear that he wanted to pursue her.
Compared to those true prodigies, Zheng Yuzhe is merely luckier than ordinary people! Song Yirou must be crazy to choose Zheng Yuzhe when she has such a powerful advantage!
"Zheng Yuzhe! How many times do I have to tell you, we're just friends, I have absolutely no romantic feelings for you!"
Song Yirou waved away the apple Zheng Yuzhe was feeding her, looking at him coldly: "Besides, if I remember correctly, you and Song Nanxi haven't broken off your engagement yet, right? Are you trying to make me a mistress in this industry, so I can never hold my head up again?"
Being looked at so coldly by Song Yirou made Zheng Yuzhe feel extremely uncomfortable.
These words were like a thorn in his heart. He quickly explained, "Xiaorou, please don't say that. I promise you, I will definitely break off my engagement with Song Nanxi. No—I'll go back and beg my grandfather right now! Xiaorou, in my heart, Song Nanxi is not even worth a hair on your head. I would never marry her!"
In the past, Song Yirou would not have hesitated to give Zheng Yuzhe a kind look upon hearing these words.
But now, she's terrified that if she shows even the slightest smile, Zheng Yuzhe will interpret it as her willingness.
Help! Someone please save her!
Song Yirou was incredibly frustrated. "Can't you understand human language?!"
Zheng Yuzhe gazed at her affectionately: "Xiaorou, don't worry, I understand."
"You don't understand at all!!"
How many times do I have to tell her I don't like it?!
"Xiaorou, what's wrong?"
At that moment, someone suddenly appeared and interrupted their conversation.
The man was tall and imposing, his handmade suit impeccably tailored, exuding an aura of authority.
Upon seeing who it was, Song Yirou exclaimed joyfully, "Brother! You're finally back!"
……
At this moment, Song Nanxi is in Ling Sheng's office.
Looking at the plan Ling Sheng handed her in disbelief, she asked in a profound question, "Ling Sheng, have you finally gone mad? Damn it, who wrote this plan?"
This is so full!
When working, Ling Sheng wears glasses on the bridge of his nose, exuding a restrained and serious demeanor.
He sat at his desk and calmly said, "You think what I wrote is too little?"
Ling Sheng acted as if he could give Song Nanxi a few more resources on the spot if she dared to nod.
He's been diagnosed; Ling Sheng has truly gone mad.
Song Nanxi was speechless: "Brother, I know you're confident, but you're way too confident. You actually think you can make me famous?"
She's the kind of person who might get rotten eggs thrown at her if she goes out.
Ling Sheng raised an eyebrow and asked, "What, you lack confidence?"
"Laughable," Song Nanxi said, perking up at the mention of this. The word "inferiority complex" didn't exist in her dictionary. "I'm brimming with confidence. Look at this face. If beauty could kill, I'd be unforgivable."
Ling Sheng looked at her delicate and beautiful face, a smile quickly flashing across his eyes.
"Then it's decided. Here's the script, and I've already accepted the role for you. You'll be joining the crew in a few days!"
With a 'thud,' a stack of scripts was slapped in front of Song Nanxi.
She was a minor female lead in a fantasy drama. Song Nanxi looked through the scripts and found that she didn't have many scenes; she only appeared in a few episodes before disappearing from the show.
Although she has very few scenes and is a supporting actress, she should be very likable once the film is released.
In this respect, Ling Sheng's judgment is indeed excellent.
Seeing her flipping through the script, Ling Sheng said, "Start by accumulating experience with small roles. The audience won't be as resistant then, and it'll be a good opportunity for you to practice. It's okay if you don't perform well; just do your best."
Song Nanxi paused slightly as she flipped through the script, then looked up. "Brother, you really believe me that much?"
In her past life, Ling Sheng did give her some resources, but each time she was maliciously targeted by Song Yirou. Basically, whatever type of film she was in, Song Yirou would also take on the same type of film.
The rumors were flying everywhere, and in the end, Song Yirou's fans turned around and accused her of trying to gain attention by associating with the trend.
Ling Sheng looked her in the eye seriously and said, "You have talent. If you can control your mouth, I can guarantee that I can mold you into the most dazzling star."
"Ah...this might be a bit difficult," Song Nanxi blinked, thinking, "If I can't control her, then I might as well kill her."
Ling Sheng smiled and said, "Then let fate decide."
Black and red are also red.
But at the same time, a voice in Ling Sheng's heart was also telling him.
Song Nanxi has a kind of magic about her; perhaps the best approach is to not suppress her and let her be her true self.
Just as he finished speaking, Ling Sheng's phone rang.
Song Nanxi glanced at the caller ID and immediately clicked her tongue, "What bad luck."
The person making the call was Song Mo, who was also her blood-related elder brother.
Because Song Nanxi blocked him, Song Mo went directly to Ling Sheng.
Ling Sheng didn't try to hide it from Song Nanxi; even through the receiver, she could hear Song Mo's cold, emotionless voice.
As one of the most outstanding members of the younger generation in the Song family, Song Mo wields considerable influence within the family and has now taken over the overseas branch, responsible for expanding overseas business.
Everyone assumed that he would be the future heir of the Song family.
Song Nanxi wasn't surprised that Song Mo would contact her, after all, she had recently given those people quite a hard time.
Sure enough, Ling Sheng said, "Song Mo said he'd come pick you up from the company later. I heard he sounded annoyed. What happened? Did you upset him?"
Ling Sheng and Song Mo had a good relationship. When they were both in H City, they would occasionally meet up for a drink.
“I didn’t provoke him, but I offended his sweetheart, does that count?” Song Nanxi knew very well that Song Mo’s visit to her was definitely not because he missed his sister after not seeing her for so long.
Ling Sheng frowned slightly, "Sweetheart?"
“When Song Yirou complained to him, he couldn’t wait to come and settle accounts with me.”
Song Nanxi flipped through the script listlessly, and as she spoke these words, her heart was no longer stirred by any emotion.
Song Mo was indeed outstanding, fulfilling Song Nanxi's perfect image of an older brother. So, at the very beginning, she really hoped that this older brother would also like her.
Unfortunately, Song Mo only felt that her return had taken Song Yirou's place.
