Chapter 3 : The Cunning Fox Spirit of the Li Family

• After resting at home for two days and getting familiar with the surroundings, Su Yi adjusted to the time difference and went to the audition for the play that Cen Nian had arranged for her on the third day.
• Cen Nian had sent her the contact information of the director and assistant director of the play a day earlier, and she easily found the place.
• "Are you the one introduced by Mr. Cen? Follow me... You will be playing the fifth female role in this play. Take a look at the script and familiarize yourself with it. I will call you when it's your turn."
• After the assistant director arranged Su Yi, she went inside to attend to other matters. Su Yi glanced at the script. It was a fantasy drama, and she played the role of a female villain who killed the male lead and offered his heart to her master in order to please him.
• The scene she had to audition for today was when the fifth female character tried to drive a wedge between the male and female leads by poisoning the male lead's drink and making him fall for her seductive charm.
• It was only a two to three-minute scene with a few lines, and she quickly memorized it.
• Feeling bored, she went into the studio to watch others audition. Wait, wasn't that Su Qingqing, the woman who was scratching her head and posing with the script? What happened to her flourishing career that Uncle Chen mentioned, aiming for the top in the domestic entertainment industry?
• Is this it?
• This play was a web drama with a total budget of less than 30 million yuan, and they hired relatively unknown and inexperienced actors. How could Su Qingqing, who was supposed to be a big shot, be cast in such a role?
• Su Qingqing's audition went smoothly, and the director approved her in no time. She thanked the director and happily walked out with the assistant director.
• When Su Yi saw her approaching, she leaned against the wall and deliberately extended her leg to block their way.
• "Don't you have eyes? Didn't you see someone coming? Do you know how expensive this dress is? If you ruin it, you won't be able to afford it even if you sell your kidney!"
• Taking advantage of her connections, Su Qingqing hadn't gained much fame yet, but the people around her were already arrogant. Birds of a feather flock together, and there are servants that match their masters.
• The assistant director didn't say anything, but his words reminded Su Yi. She put her leg down and deliberately stepped on the hem of Su Qingqing's dress. Su Qingqing was too busy looking at her phone and didn't notice. Suddenly, there was a tearing sound, and a large piece of her 80,000 yuan dress was torn off.
• Su Qingqing was furious. "Don't you have eyes... Oh, who do we have here? It's the cunning fox spirit from the Li family. I heard that you learned acting abroad. Why can't you get any roles and take it out on my dress?"
• Su Yi's eyes darkened. "Who are you calling a fox spirit?"
• "I'm talking about you, Su Yi. Everyone in Jiangcheng knows that you slept with Li Shengjue to repay your mother's debt, but Li Shengjue didn't care about you at all. Not only did he use you, but he also kicked you out of the Li family. You are a little fox spirit, and your mother, An Ran, is a big fox spirit. Both of you are shameless..."
• Before Su Qingqing could finish, Su Yi slapped her across the face and coldly said, "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll cut out your tongue!"
• "How dare you hit me... you fox spirit! I'll fight you..."
• Ignoring her image, Su Qingqing rushed towards Su Yi, and they ended up in a tangle.
• The director rushed over when he heard the commotion. "What are you doing? What is this place for you to cause trouble?!"
• Su Qingqing couldn't beat Su Yi, so she ran over to the director, tears in her eyes, and pleaded for help. "Director, this woman is both fierce and ugly. She doesn't deserve to be in our cast. Please don't let her pass, or our whole crew will be in chaos!"
• The director glanced at Su Yi, who had a stunning appearance, alluring yet refined, with a well-proportioned figure and a calm and composed expression.
• "What are you doing here? Who allowed you to cause trouble?"
• Before he could finish speaking, the assistant director who had brought Su Yi in whispered something in his ear. The director's anger gradually subsided, and he looked at Su Yi. "So you're the person Mr. Cen introduced. Come in and give it a try. If you don't pass, it won't be my problem!"
• "How can you let her..." Su Qingqing started to protest, but the director glared at her and impatiently said, "Go back and study the script more. What kind of actor can't even remember the lines?"
• Unwilling to accept it, Su Qingqing wanted to use her influential backer to pressure the director, but unexpectedly, a voice filled with impatience came from the studio, "Are we still shooting or not? Stop wasting time! So annoying!"
• It was the male lead, Gu Chenxi. Although he didn't have much acting talent, he had the backing of his father, the executive president of Huan Yu Films. He was a wealthy and influential young master who couldn't be provoked.
• The reason Su Qingqing took this role was largely because of Gu Chenxi. As long as she could win him over, she and her entire family, including the Su family, would have no worries about food and clothing.
• "Here we go..."
• The director signaled Su Yi, "Go in. Mr. Gu is waiting for you!"
• Su Yi quickly got into character, while Gu Chenxi was still adjusting his clothes.
• "Master, this is a forgetfulness wine specially made for you. If you drink it, you will forget all the unhappy things..."
• "Master, let me pour the wine for you!"
• "...Master, do you think I'm beautiful?"
• "Beautiful..."
• "Cut!" The director couldn't help but stop them. Suppressing his anger, he walked up to Gu Chenxi and said, "Mr. Gu, your character is supposed to be devoted and loyal. How can you succumb to temptation and call her beautiful? And where have your eyes been wandering? You are a righteous and upright hero..."
• "Alright, alright. It's not the main assessment for me today. It's just a formality... Hey, beauty, what's your name? I feel like I've seen you somewhere before... Ah, I remember, you look like my grandmother!"
• Su Yi chuckled, "Good grandson, bring me another trash bag!"
