Showbiz Escape

Chapter 40 Trying on Makeup
Since Ye Lingchuan came back from that game, he has been in a bad mood. Since he is still living at Chen Yingnan's house, Chen Yingnan has to look at his iceberg face every day, except for being speechless.

"Don't be so stern. Once you get serious, I always feel that you are planning to murder me."

"It's annoying for me to talk to you, and you're not used to it when I don't talk to you." Ye Lingchuan sat on the sofa with a cup of coffee, expressionless and gloomy, "I think you need to clear your mind."

Chen Yingnan gave him a helpless look: "It's useless to talk about it, let me ask you, are you angry because you dropped your ranking in the list of spades?"

This is true, if the bounty hunter fails in the mission, he will be severely deducted points, and he was only one step away from playing, and failed to frame Xiang Zhifeng out of the game.

According to common sense, there are not many hunters who are capable of forming a competitive relationship with him. Deducting the points for this match is far from losing the ranking. , his record soared all the way until he reached a position comparable to his.

The opponent was the 2 of spades, and he was originally suppressed by him, but this time he lost a game and the opponent won a game.

Ye Lingchuan naturally knew about this, and he sneered: "It doesn't matter, anyone can sit in the Ace of Spades, and I will get it back sooner or later."

Chen Yingnan wondered: "Aren't you angry because of this? Why is that?"

"It's hard for you to understand."

"Then I have to understand." This sentence obviously aroused Chen Yingnan's interest. People who have always been too lazy to ask about gossip, now stop writing songs halfway through, and start to ask the bottom line, "Tell me, are you in the game?" What happened to Li?"

He was too persistent, and stared at the side without getting an answer, probably because he couldn't stand his focused gaze, Ye Lingchuan glanced at him, remained silent for a while, and finally opened his mouth.

"I met that little girl again in the game."

Chen Yingnan immediately came to his senses: "The little girl surnamed Wen? You two really have a destiny, what's wrong with her?"

"She seems to care too much about my target person." Ye Lingchuan said, "She told me that she and Xiang Zhifeng had a relationship before - but in my opinion, that so-called relationship is not worth her doing That's the point."

"How far has she gone?"

"She has been protecting Xiang Zhifeng, and in the end she even sacrificed herself to destroy my plan."

Regarding this, Chen Yingnan obviously found it difficult to understand: "Even if she has the heart to protect Xiang Zhifeng, she shouldn't be able to destroy your plan, right?"

"She's much better than I thought."

"You mean... she hid her strength before?"

Ye Lingchuan put down his cup, leaned back heavily on the sofa, and sighed deeply.

"I don't know, I don't want to make a conclusion so early."

Chen Yingnan thought and thought, and the more he thought about it, the more something went wrong: "How strong is she?"

"It's hard to describe, but my intuition tells me..."

"Ok?"

"She's probably on par with me."

Chen Yingnan was shocked: "On par with you? Do you know what that means? If she is really so strong, why does she have to hide from you and act with you?"

Ye Lingchuan pursed the corners of his lips, and he seemed to grit his teeth hard: "Fuck, if I understand, why do I need to be so annoying?"

The authorities are obsessed with this, and he will not be able to figure it out for a while. He can't figure out why Wen Zhuo should protect Xiang Zhifeng at all costs. Obviously, with her personality, there is no reason to make such an extreme choice.

Now in his mind, when she broke through the siege of the female ghost and the skeleton, she raised her sword and turned to look at him, the cold and stern eyes that have not yet restrained; and the calm and helpless look when she was almost strangled by Boss Wang. The countenance of fear.

——Don't worry about that Miss Wen, I don't think she's weaker than you, the female ghosts here are not enough for her to kill.

Zhao Qianxue's neither yin nor yang words were inexplicably awakened from memory.

I have to admit that Ye Lingchuan felt threatened.

Wen Zhuo had never done anything outrageous to him, but he felt an unspeakable threat.

The surface of the sparkling sea, like the sunset glow, was blown by the wind, revealing a corner of the turbulent undercurrent at the bottom of the sea.

It's strange that he suddenly came up with a seemingly outrageous, but extremely reasonable conjecture after careful consideration.

Chen Yingnan carefully observed his expression, and made a pertinent suggestion: "Don't you have the contact information of that girl? Why don't you make an appointment and try it out for an interview?"

Ye Lingchuan raised his eyebrows slightly, and was about to answer, but the phone rang at this moment, showing an incoming call from his manager.

As an artist who was hidden by Ban Xue, he hadn't contacted his manager for almost a month. It was a coincidence that he was not used to making a phone call.

He pressed the answer button, and the first sentence was: "Why, Sister Na, the company has finally decided to take the initiative to terminate the contract with me?"

"Get rid of the appointment, you're good for it!" Manager Qian Na's voice was always penetrating, and she shouted angrily, "A character actor in the company's new drama temporarily quit, you Come and replace me, come to City Z at noon the day after tomorrow, and I will send you the specific address!"

The call was hastily cut off.

Chen Yingnan was a little worried: "Are you okay? Your company really wants to terminate the contract with you?"

"It would be great if they really terminated the contract. Could they be so merciful to let the artist go? Of course, we have to wait until the artist can't stand it and ask for the termination, and then ask for the huge liquidated damages." Ye Lingchuan said coldly, "This time, there is an actor temporarily Stop acting and pull me to save the scene, otherwise they would not give me this opportunity."

"You have earned so much money, have you never thought about paying liquidated damages and leaving the company?"

"The premise is that I have to find a new home, otherwise what can I do if I leave? It's not like you don't know Jingfeng Media's right to speak in the industry. Once there is a quarrel, how can I be tolerated?"

So what he can do now is to try his best to make every film he can come into contact with, even if there are few scenes, even if the characters are poor, even if he is looked down upon by others, it is just to hone himself.

There is always a chance, just like what he once said to Wen Zhuo, people will not always be unlucky.

The important thing is not to give up easily.

Chen Yingnan said in a low voice: "Lao Ye, don't blame me for being abrupt. In fact, I never understood. With your superior conditions, what mistakes did you make at that time, and you were actually hidden by the company?"

"I did nothing wrong."

"……what?"

"I said, I didn't make a mistake, it's just that I think it's dirty." Ye Lingchuan replied unhurriedly, "The entertainment industry has its own hidden rules, and I refused the shortcuts that others were willing to take. This is the price you have to pay for refusing."

At noon the day after tomorrow, Ye Lingchuan arrived at the Z city airport on time, got out of the airport, called a taxi, and went straight to the shooting base.

He waited in the waiting room for a long time without even drinking his saliva. Finally, he saw his manager Qian Na rushing over in high heels.

"Come with me to try on makeup."

He didn't speak, he got up casually and followed behind her, while listening to her thoughts.

"Let me tell you, you really have to thank Mr. Wu for showing mercy this time. If Mr. Wu hadn't nodded, you thought you would have the chance to star in this big IP? How many people can't get in!"

He sneered: "Okay, thank President Wu for giving me a meal. Even if I die in the future, I have to climb out of the coffin to thank President Wu for his great kindness."

Qian Na was dissatisfied: "Who are you having an affair with?"

"I've always been so eccentric, Sister Na, otherwise, why do you think Mr. Wu has a particularly strong opinion of me?"

"..."

Qian Nadeng didn't bother to talk to him anymore, she led him to the dressing room and left.

The makeup test was actually very sloppy. After all, the staff in charge of the costumes here are very snobby, so they threw the costume of that character to Ye Lingchuan and asked him to change it himself, and ignored the rest.

It was a purple robe with a gold belt around the waist. The color was very attractive. Even some handsome actors would easily look rustic or tacky without makeup.

But Ye Lingchuan chose to wear without makeup to show a graceful and luxurious temperament. When he looked in the mirror at that station, the female makeup artist next to him looked here twice.

Then he suddenly heard a scolding sound from outside.

"What did you do? You were asked to change the script, and you changed it like this? Do you like the second female in this unit? Is it the same as what I asked you?"

A strange premonition came to his mind inexplicably, he frowned, turned around and pushed open the door of the dressing room.
