The assistant director looked embarrassed. Under Shu Xin's repeated urging, he had to pick up his phone and dial Ye's number.

The phone ringtone played hands-free can be heard clearly by everyone in the audience.

Shu Xin raised her chin proudly and said, "Just wait, Mu Xiaowan will know what real status is soon."

It is impossible for Ye to give up her, a popular actress, and support an unknown 18th-tier actress.

As for the friendship between Mu Xiaowan and Ye that was spread online... Shu Xin didn't believe it at all. Aren't there many good friends in this circle? It's just a show.

However, it has to be said that Ye is very good at hype.

"beep--"

The ringing of the phone was getting closer and closer, as if it was right next to my ear.

Everyone turned around subconsciously and saw Song Mingyi standing at the door of the conference room with his cell phone ringing.

"Deputy Director Zheng, I need an explanation."

The assistant director seemed to have seen a savior and quickly repeated what Shu Xin had just said.

"That's what Shu Xin means now, what do you think?"

Shu Xin extended her hand to Song Mingyi gracefully: "Hello, Ye, I am honored to play the role of "Seventh Night", but I think you don't seem to be careful enough in considering the casting of the heroine."

"I am confident that I can play the role of the heroine well. I believe that I will also make "Seventh Night" reach a more popular milestone. I hope you can consider it carefully once."

Song Mingyi didn't shake hands with her, but chuckled: "Teacher Shu Xin just said, there is you, but not Mu Xiaowan?"

"Yes." Shu Xin affirmed.

Song Mingyi smiled and said, "Very good. Your contract has been terminated now. Assistant Director, please send a new interview invitation and find the next suitable actor as soon as possible."

Shu Xin was struck by lightning and said in disbelief: "Ye...are you serious?"

Song Mingyi was very surprised: "Didn't you say that Xiaowan was there but you weren't?"

Why?

Shu Xin was almost going crazy due to the grievance. Not only was her acting skills far better than Mu Xiaowan's, but even the fame and traffic she brought was definitely not comparable to that of Mu Xiaowan.

Ye actually gave up on her?

"Teacher Shu Xin, perhaps you haven't figured out the situation yet. The second female lead can be replaced, and The Seventh Night can be cancelled, but Mu Xiaowan must be my heroine."

Mu Xiaowan felt guilty. If she wasn't a low-profile person, no one would have made trouble during the script reading.

But at the same time, a feeling of unwillingness arose in her heart. She believed that one day, she would be able to dub Ye's script with dignity.

The assistant director responded immediately. Shu Xin was still not giving up. She was instantly dissatisfied and angrily said to Song Mingyi, "Do you know how famous I am?"

"The traffic that this drama will receive from my casual promotion is definitely top-notch!"

Song Mingyi said disdainfully: "If my script needs you to promote it, then don't shoot it."

Song Mingyi has the confidence. She has become a household name since she published her first work under Ye's name.

"The Seventh Night" is her best work in all these years, and it is truly a gold mine that everyone wants to get their hands on.

Shu Xin clenched her fists, and her delicate and beautiful face looked a little ferocious.

She took a deep breath and said, "Okay, just wait for me! If I don't want to act, then I won't act. Who cares?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the assistant director's phone started to receive calls non-stop.

"Oh, yes, yes, the second female role is open. Okay, come over for the audition this afternoon."

"Oh, Director Mou, yes, yes, ten girls come to audition, okay?"

"..."

Shu Xin’s face turned pale.

She bit her lip angrily and walked away.

Song Mingyi didn't care at all. She turned to Mu Xiaowan and gave her a thumbs up: "But, she has a bit of the flavor of a heroine."

"That's right." Mu Xiaowan raised her chin with a proud look on her face: "I am the heroine chosen by you personally, I can't embarrass you." After a pause, she said proudly: "You are taking advantage of others' power...ah, taking advantage of your power to bully others, bah, never mind, it feels good to have someone to back you up!"

Song Mingyi was amused by her: "Then remember well, I will always be your supporter."

Mu Xiaowan hugged Song Mingyi: "Song Xiaoyi, I will also work hard to be your backer."

The reading session for the day was temporarily suspended, and the assistant director coordinated with the actors who wanted to audition and picked out the role of the second female lead first.

However, before Song Mingyi left, press releases about the incident appeared all over the Internet.

"The heroine of "Seventh Night" plays big and forces the second female lead Shu Xin to leave!"

"What's so great about using the backdoor? Don't you even consider your status? How dare you make Shu Xin angry and leave!"

"Shu Xin is too wronged. Why should she let someone like Mu Xiaowan be so proud?"

"Mu Xiaowan, get out! Boycott Mu Xiaowan as the heroine! Ye, if you dare to film, I won't watch it!"

Mu Xiaowan frowned after seeing this: "This Shu Xin is not an easy person to deal with. She really knows how to use her fans to charge forward."

"Are you scared?"

Mu Xiaowan: "If you are afraid, you won't be in this circle. Besides, I have a big shot. The one who should be afraid is Shu Xin. Don't forget that I have a top agent Bai Rui by my side."

Song Mingyi remembered that Bai Rui was the one specially arranged by his uncle to be by Xiao Wan's side. He was the top operator in the entertainment industry.

"In that case, let's watch Bai Rui's performance."

Bai Rui said calmly, "Don't worry, Miss Song. I won't let you down."

After saying this, Bai Rui went aside to make a phone call.

At this time, the paparazzi posted the photos they took online. Those photos were all high-definition pictures. Shu Xin had red eyes and was wiping tears. She got into the nanny car under the care of her agent.

Shu Xin's fans on the Internet rioted and threatened to seek justice for her.

Song Mingyi didn't care about the online storm: "Miss Mu, please do me a favor and have dinner with me today."

Mu Xiaowan: "I still have to study tonight."

"I've asked the teacher for leave for you, Xiao Wan. I know you're anxious, but you also need to combine work and rest."

Mu Xiaowan had no choice but to agree to go out for dinner with Song Mingyi.

As soon as he came out of the company, the enthusiastic fans who had been waiting for a long time swarmed over him.

"Mu Xiaowan, what right do you have to bully our Xinxin!"

"Go to hell! It's not enough that you stole our Xinxin's heroine, you also forced her to leave the crew!"

Some of them were holding pepper spray, and some were holding dirty rotten eggs.

Some people were holding iron rods.

Seeing that the spray was about to spray towards Song Mingyi, Mu Xiaowan immediately protected her: "Be careful!"

Song Mingyi kicked the man over with a clean move, and just in time he saw an iron rod coming straight towards Mu Xiaowan's back.

Her eyes widened, "Xiao Wan!"

It was too late, the iron rod was about to fall down.

Suddenly, a tall and slender figure grabbed the half iron rod and lifted it up.

The next second, he suddenly held Mu Xiaowan in his arms.

Mu Xiaowan looked up in surprise and smelled the sharp breath on the man. Li Xiao held her in his arms, and his handsome face was full of coldness.

Why...is he here?
