Jiang Li dozed off so hard that she didn't even notice someone coming to sit next to her. It wasn't until that person suddenly rubbed her hard that she suddenly woke up and quickly jumped up to look at the fire.

Fortunately, it's not burnt dry!

Jiang Li thought it was the tea aunt who reminded her to watch the pear soup, until she turned around and saw Qin Sisi's big watery eyes, then she reacted and exclaimed: "Ah! Why are you here!"

"Are you surprised? Are you surprised?"

Qin Sisi smiled, her face full of joy.

"I joined the crew to film."

Jiang Li blinked in disbelief: "Is this Li Mubai's play?"

Qin Sisi nodded and said, "Thank you. This is a resource that Teacher Mu Bai helped me to connect with. The actor who was supposed to play this role suddenly said that he couldn't act because of a schedule conflict, so Teacher Mu Bai recommended me to the director."

When Qin Sisi received Li Mubai's call, she was shocked and felt flattered. Li Mubai even told her not to tell Jiang Li yet and to give her a surprise.

Jiang Li was so happy that she almost took off: "I'm so happy! We can go to work together again!"

"Yes, thanks to you."

"Thanks to me!"

Jiang Li was not happy with what Qin Sisi said, and said: "Little Sisi! You are belittling yourself! Do you think you got this role by connections? No! You got this role by your ability! Li Mubai recommended you because of your good acting skills."

Qin Sisi smiled shyly and said concisely: "No matter what, I will work hard."

What Jiang Li said makes sense, but in this industry, opportunities are more important than strength. Although persistence will lead to a way out sooner or later, it is completely different for an actress to be outstanding at the age of 20 and to be outstanding at the age of 40 or 50. Think about it, if she waits until she is 40 or 50 to be noticed by the audience, what kind of drama can she play at that time? There are too few choices, and it is more likely that she will be eliminated by the market before she reaches 40 or 50.

Li Mubai had also roughly introduced this role to her when he called her. Although she didn't have many scenes, she was a key character with a very distinctive personality. If she played it well, she would be very outstanding. So she would definitely cherish this opportunity.

As the two chatted, Qin Sisi realized that she had not yet "taken action to accuse" the person.

"What are you talking about? I didn't know you and Li Mubai are so familiar with each other."

"That day when you had an accident, the director contacted him and he came over so nervously that I was really surprised."

Qin Sisi had wanted to ask her these questions for a long time, but because Li Mubai was present when she visited the patient, she didn't dare to say much.

Jiang Li laughed embarrassedly twice: "Sorry, I didn't mean to hide it from you."

Jiang Li didn't know what to say except to say sorry. After all, she was not from this era, and many of the ins and outs could not be explained clearly, so it was better to say less and make fewer mistakes.

Even Li Mubai always treated her as a stowaway.

Qin Sisi gently slapped her with her fist: "Why are you saying sorry to me? There's nothing to be sorry about. But next time if you have any big news, remember to let me know in advance so that I can prepare myself mentally and avoid being startled."

In fact, it doesn’t matter whether she is Li Mubai’s relative or Li Mubai’s girlfriend. To Qin Sisi, Jiang Li is still Jiang Li, her best friend and a hero who will stand up for her and speak up for her.

Jiang Li also felt a little warm-hearted. She really did not make the wrong friends. Qin Sisi would not ask questions, but she was always there to support her silently.

With Qin Sisi's company, Jiang Li felt her working life was more comfortable.

Moreover, there have been a lot of accidents and surprises recently. A few days later, Jiang Li met an old acquaintance on the set again.

Jiang Li didn't expect to meet her in Li Mubai's crew, Gu Xiaohua, Liu Genhua's young assistant, who is now working as an assistant to the makeup artist in the dressing room.

Although they are both assistants, the girl's mental state seems to be much better than before. I heard that she was driven away by Liu Genhua and was not even paid. Later, she was recommended by a friend to be a makeup artist assistant in this crew.

Gu Xiaohua had been avoiding her since she started working there. Jiang Li finally found a time when there was no one else in the dressing room and slipped in to "question" her.

"Long time no see, Gu Xiaohua."

Seeing that it was Jiang Li, Gu Xiaohua suddenly became nervous. She stood straight and held the clothes she was sorting in her hands tightly.

Jiang Li suddenly laughed: "Why are you so nervous? I'm not here to cause you any trouble."

Jiang Li tried hard to ease the atmosphere. She thought her expression was quite kind, but Gu Xiaohua was still very nervous and stared at her without moving.

Jiang Li felt helpless and finally had to be more direct.

"Did you give that note to Qin Sisi?"

Gu Xiaohua still didn't say a word, but her suddenly widened eyes said it all.

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone. I just want to say thank you to you in person. If it weren't for that note, I wouldn't be able to stand here properly now."

Jiang Li's eyes were sincere and her voice was gentle, which made Gu Xiaohua relax a little.

"No...you're welcome!"

"I'm helping you not for anything, just because we are both Chinese."

Gu Xiaohua is actually from the mainland, and is what Liu Genhua calls a northern girl. She came here illegally with her parents very early, and had a hard time making a living in Hong Kong for many years. She heard that being a celebrity assistant paid well, so she asked someone to find a connection to apply for the job. But she didn't expect that being a celebrity assistant was such a difficult job. Liu Genhua didn't treat her as a human being at all. Not only did she have a low salary and not enough sleep, but he also beat and scolded her every day, and when he got angry, he would pour boiling hot coffee on her.

Gu Xiaohua had wanted to resign a long time ago, but she didn't dare to speak up for fear of being retaliated by Liu Genhua. Later, because she was overworked and her resistance was reduced, she had allergies and her whole body was covered with rashes. Liu Genhua thought she had some infectious disease and was afraid of being infected, so she sent her away.

Gu Xiaohua turned a disaster into a blessing. Later, she heard that the crew was recruiting a makeup artist assistant, and since she was good at combing hair, she applied for the job.

"Since we are all Chinese, can you make friends with me?"

Jiang Li felt that Gu Xiaohua had a kind heart, and more importantly, a patriotic heart. Although she was small and a little timid, her patriotic roots had never wavered. Such a person was worth cherishing and making friends with.

Seeing Jiang Li's sincere smile, for some reason, Gu Xiaohua actually thought she was very beautiful. Unlike Emily's flamboyant and seductive beauty, Jiang Li had a righteous beauty. She was so thin, looked so cute, and spoke softly, but she never backed down when faced with something. Instead, she would go forward with a domineering momentum, especially when she ridiculed Emily one sentence after another. Gu Xiaohua felt that she was simply indomitable and explosive.

Gu Xiaohua also wanted to make friends with someone like Jiang Li, but as Emily's assistant at the time, Jiang Li and Emily were incompatible, so Gu Xiaohua didn't dare to talk to her at all. Later, she found out that she was someone close to Li Mubai, and she thought that Jiang Li would definitely look down on a small person like herself, so she didn't dare to deal with her. But unexpectedly, she asked her in return if she was willing to be friends with her.

willing!

Of course Gu Xiaohua is willing!

When Gu Xiaohua extended her hand and shook hands with Jiang Li formally, Jiang Li knew that she had finally made her second friend in Hong Kong.

Oh no, strictly speaking, it’s the second female friend.

"It's nice to be your friend, Jiang Li."

"It's nice to be your friend, Xiaohua."
