Chapter 1216: Make a Big Scene

“Yes,” said another of Jiang Bilian’s lackey. “Don’t run back to the dormitory and cry in secret!”
A smirk formed on Xia Yingluo’s lips. “Failed? Sorry, I don’t even know how to write the word. In fact, the director wanted to tell you all to just leave directly but thought it was not polite, so he let you continue to audition.”
Her words made everyone shocked.
What? The director wanted to tell them to leave? So, were they satisfied with Xia Yingluo’s audition?
No one else had a chance?
All kinds of surprised eyes fell on Xia Yingluo’s face.
Jiang Bilian was also startled. No way, did this stupid girl actually get the role? No… no, it was impossible. She must be lying to them. She was doing this to let them give up hope and not audition properly to reduce competitiveness! “I won’t be fooled by you,” Jiang Bilian said calmly. “Xia Yingluo, don’t say too much, beware of being beaten after the casting results!”
Xia Yingluo gave her a mocking look and went out.
She was very confident about the casting result, but when she went to the director to get the script the next day, the director said, “I’m sorry, Miss Xia, there is a change in the role of this character, so you’ve come here for nothing.”
She felt a little stunned before reacting to the role being given to someone else.
She couldn’t help but be disappointed. After all, she had performed so well in the audition. Could it be that someone else was better than her? “Can you tell me who was finalized?” She said, “So that I can be convinced of my loss.”
“Jiang Bilian,” said the director.
Xia Yingluo was surprised. Although Jiang Bilian was also a top student in the training camp, her style was softer and she might not be suitable for the fierce acting that a female killer must have. Furthermore, she was definitely not better than her who had been influenced by killers since young.
Could there be some shady business?
She looked at the director. “I know Jiang Bilian’s level. Why did you use her? I don’t agree with this result.”
The director frowned. “Ms. Xia, this is a two-way choice. It is my decision who to use. I don’t think I need to explain my decision to you? It’s normal to fail an audition, please set your mind right and go back.”
Xia Yingluo was very angry. The director’s answer was obviously perfunctory. What on earth happened?
She returned to the training camp glumly, and when she entered the school gate, she was confronted by Jiang Bilian, who was just about to head out.
When she saw her, a victorious smile bloomed on Jiang Bilian’s face. “Xia Yingluo, what a coincidence.”
She was unkind.
Xia Yingluo looked cold and didn’t want to talk to her. She walked further into the school.
Jiang Bilian raised her voice and said, “I got the killer character, and I’m going out to celebrate with Zhu Zhu. Have you eaten lunch yet? Would you like to join us?”
Xia Yingluo turned back. “How glamorous is it to show off winning a character through shady business?”
“What’s the matter?” Zhu Zhu took the lead and defended Jiang Bilian. “Our sister Bilian got the role by her own strength, aren’t you just jealous? If you’re not convinced, you can get one too. Haha, what did you say yesterday, that you will get this character and show us? What a joke.”
Several of Jiang Bilian’s lackeys also looked at her with a smirk.
Xia Yingluo was even more sullen, but the character was already hers. At this time, there was no point in arguing and she would only be looking for shame. She turned and walked straight into the school.
Looking at her back, Jiang Bilian felt soothed. The anger that had been in her heart for a long time suddenly dissipated. In fact, she was also surprised that this killer role would fall on her—she knew very well that her audition had not been outstanding. Why did the crew choose her instead of others?
Regarding this issue, she was afraid to ask the director, for fear of getting an unpleasant response.
“Let’s go and eat.” Jiang Bilian stopped thinking about this issue. Since things had already come to this, she should embrace the reality of getting the role. She showed a dignified smile and called her lackeys.
She didn’t realize a low-key luxury car parked not far from the school gate. A well-dressed woman sat in the back seat of the car.
“That’s Jiang Bilian?” The woman looked out of the car window. Her voice was beautiful, and she was implicitly reserved.
“Yes,” said the driver wearing white gloves. “Miss Jinxiu, according to the investigation, the relationship between Jiang Bilian and Xia Yingluo is very bad. If you want to deal with Xia Yingluo, you can use Jiang Bilian.”
Gu Jinxiu reached out her hand gracefully to rub her forehead. She said, “Ok, start driving and go to the beauty salon early to do today’s treatment. These messy things are giving me a headache.” What outsiders didn’t know was that she was the one who had secretly instructed the crew to remove Xia Yingluo’s name and replace it with Jiang Bilian. She held information against the director in her hands, and the director simply couldn’t afford to fight with the Gu family’s lady over a small role, so he had just followed her orders.
As for Xia Yingluo?
Ha, why care about the feeling of a little trainee?
Xia Yingluo had still been thanking her luck yesterday. Today, she felt particularly unlucky. The aura of being the Phoenix’s daughter seemed to be fading. Ever since she entered the training camp, no, ever since the night at the casino, she had somehow started to have bad luck.
Was it because she was out for too long and God had forgotten whose daughter she was?
She returned sadly to the dormitory, rolling around on the bed under the covers.
When Jin Ling’er came in, she saw that she was wrapped like a cicada. “What’s the matter with you?” She went to pick up the quilt in annoyance. “It’s spread all over the training camp. The person who got the audition role this time is Jiang Bilian. Her band of running dogs said she’s the real chief, and even mocked you, saying what use is it to score first in the monthly exam when being able to mix outside showed real strength! You seem rather good, you’re actually hiding here to sleep?!”
“What else can I do besides sleep?” Xia Yingluo said shallowly. She was very unmotivated. “Go quarrel with them? That wouldn’t restore the big picture, it’ll just make me look stingy.”
Jin Ling’er was not reconciled. “Then that’s it? I don’t believe she managed to steal the role from you with her own strengths!”
“I don’t believe it, either.” Xia Yingluo rolled a few more times on the bed. “I’m so sad, boohoo, I want to sleep.”
Jin Ling’er looked at her resentfully for failing to meet her expectation. “You might as well sleep to death!”
She couldn’t just sit back and ignore it when her good friend was unmotivated. Jin Ling’er rushed around for a few days and decided to use the most stupid method to fight for wrong—make a big scene.
The filming set was located in the famous film city on the outskirts of the city. Jin Ling’er was fashionable and, since she was a trainee, she naturally exuded an aura of people in the entertainment circle. She mixed in without any effort and watched the startup ceremony in the crowd.
