With a ‘click’ sound, the lighter lit a second cigarette. He looked outside the audition hall: “Why aren’t you here yet?”
Knock, knock, knock—
The staff’s voice came and said that they were ready.
He Qisheng said in a deep voice, “Come in.”
The scene he expected was for Mo Sui and Zhou Mingmin to ignore each other and even roll their eyes at each other from time to time. However, who knew that such a situation did not happen?
They both looked perfectly normal and natural.
However, Zhou Mingmin covered her nose and glanced at the cigarette in He Qisheng’s hand with disgust and squeamishness.
Logically speaking, no one on the set would dare to express dissatisfaction with the director for smoking.
He Qisheng himself didn’t think that there was anything wrong, but while he was puffing away, he first saw Zhou Mingmin’s unhappy expression. Then, he turned his eyes and saw the impatience in Mo Sui’s eyes…
Both of them seemed to think he had no qualities…
“Ahem–” He Qisheng put out the cigarette in his hand, “Let’s get started.”
Zhou Mingmin raised her hand and waved it away, brushing the smell of smoke away from her eyes. Her beautiful eyebrows still twisted.
He Qisheng:…
Weirdly guilty.
After that, there was a formal audition session.
He Qisheng originally thought that he would see two vases at odds with each other during the audition, but the result was beyond his expectations.
There was no doubt about Mo Sui’s acting skills.
Although she occasionally missed lines and actions because she was not fully in the state yet, her performance in the whole scene was very complete.
The simple characters in the script became three-dimensional and deep under her presentation.
Zhou Mingmin’s acting skills fluctuate up and down. If she encountered the right script and opponent, she would shine. Otherwise, her acting would only be mediocre.
He Qisheng didn’t have high hopes for her at first, but this time, her performance surprised him.
The two people played a pair of good friends, with deep sisterly love. It was a heartwarming scene, but there were layers of progression.
He never expected that Zhou Mingmin and Mo Sui would actually bring the friendship between the sisters to life.
It was as if they had really known each other for a long time and understood each other.
What Director He was preparing was a film of the Republic of China.
As two wealthy ladies from a warlord’s family, the two sisters were inseparable. Later, they fell in love for the first time and experienced love but failed.
During this period, they had quarrels and conflicts, which triggered the mystery of their life experiences that had been hidden since childhood.
After their life experiences were revealed, the two sisters parted ways, but they didn’t want to meet each other again in the war in this special era.
The beautiful and arrogant eldest lady no longer cared about things that had nothing to do with her, and the arrogant and willful second lady was no longer greedy for life and death.
They put aside all their past grievances and braved the flames of war to move forward hand in hand.
Before that, Director He took the script and had been looking for suitable actors.
There was a vague figure in his mind, so he invited Mo Sui and Zhou Mingmin over.
But he didn’t expect that they would give him a big surprise.
It seemed that this movie did not require any more auditions. The candidates for the two heroines had been determined.
***
On the way back, Mo Sui was obviously in a very good mood.
She and Zhou Mingmin were awkward just now. They didn’t talk about anything else. They just exchanged mobile phone numbers.
However, just thinking about the contact information of her old friends in the address book on her mobile phone, her pace unconsciously became brisk.
Sister Wu encouraged An An and asked her to find out why Mo Sui and Zhou Mingmin had a falling out in childhood.
But An An was not so easy to coax. The little dumpling jumped around her mother and didn’t care about this problem at all.
In the end, Sister Wu had no choice but to go into battle on her own.
