Chapter 67: Ms. Bai Ye
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Ever since Bai Ye retired gloriously from the Jinbei Film Academy half a year ago, she rarely showed her face in front of the public. She started to like peace and quiet as she got older. Hence, when her children suggested holding a 50th birthday banquet for her, Bai Ye rejected it.
However, although she kept a low profile, almost half of the big shots in the entertainment industry still came to the event location when this teacher in the entertainment industry celebrated her birthday. For example, some top Best Actors and Best Actresses, who seldom appeared in front of the camera, also came to congratulate her respectfully with birthday gifts.
“That’s right. If the actor for this role is chosen, she might become a trending star!” Bai Ye held the wine glass in her hand and exuded a graceful aura.
She did not put on any makeup, but it was not difficult to tell that she was a beauty when she was young. She only spoke gently to the person beside her. In this elegant and quiet courtyard, she was a very pleasing existence.
The person standing beside her and talking to her was Ma Lei, the producer of the movie “Zhaoyuan”.
Ma Lei and she had been old friends for many years. She came to celebrate her birthday. At the same time, she wanted to find a suitable actress for the supporting actress in “Zhaoyuan” from her rich social circle.
Bai Ye naturally knew why Ma Lei was here today. Actually, when Ma Lei passed the character’s brief biography to her, her eyes lit up. She immediately thought of a candidate who was very compatible with this character and was perfectly compatible!
…..
However, Bai Ye was not sure if this person would come today.
Ma Lei looked around at the people in the courtyard and continued in a good mood, “Your place is quite quiet, but it’s a little remote. 1 wonder if Jian Tan will be able to find it later!”
“Jian Tan? Is he coming over today too? Why didn’t I hear him mention it before?” Bai Ye asked softly after being stunned. Her hand that was holding the wine glass paused.
Ma Lei chuckled when she heard that. Just as she was about to say something, she was interrupted by a commotion at the entrance of the courtyard. They instinctively turned around.
“Ms. Bai! We’re here to celebrate your birthday!”
Before Xin Xin stepped onto the limestone tiles in the courtyard, her voice had already spread throughout the entire courtyard. Following her excited congratulations, a group of people rushed in at the entrance of the courtyard!
Ma Lei subconsciously frowned slightly. She felt that this group of people was a little noisy. When she turned around to observe the host’s expression, she also noticed the displeasure that flashed across Bai Ye’s eyes. It disappeared in the next second.
This emotion transitioned a little too quickly. If she did not know her friend well enough, Ma Lei would have thought that she had seen wrongly.
The group of people who suddenly rushed into the courtyard was actually led by Xin Xin and Li Xian. They were all students from the acting department when Bai Ye was teaching at the Jinbei Film Academy.
After seeing the leader, Li Xian, Bai Ye roughly knew what was going on. She sighed helplessly. When Li Xian walked towards her with Xin Xin, she scolded jokingly, “I told you that it wouldn’t be a big celebration this time. Why did you arrange so many people to come? You brat!”
Seeing the smile on Bai Ye’s face, Li Xian seemed to heave a sigh of relief. He bowed slightly to Bai Ye and smiled brightly. He replied, “Ms. Bai is right, but 1 thought that today’s day was so important. It would be a little unreasonable for us as students not to come over. That’s why 1 joined forces with Xin Xin to come over to celebrate your birthday. I just hope you don’t mind us being noisy and give us some food and drinks!”
Bai Ye was extremely amused by Li Xian’s last sentence, even her crow’s feet softened a little. She scolded Li Xian with a smile and waved at the old butler to come over. She brought the handsome men and beautiful women behind Li Xian and Xin Xin away and instructed the butler to treat them well. They could not just give them anything to eat or drink!
Li Xian did not refute his teacher’s teasing. He only smiled and looked at Bai Ye, a different emotion flashing across his eyes. He handed the things in his hand to the servant at the side and said, “I didn’t expect this place to be so quiet. 1 almost walked past it. I wonder if Xia Wei will be able to find this place later!”
Bai Ye’s eyes lit up when he heard Li Xian’s words..
