Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife-Chapter 51 Stolen

? The assistant director was extremely shocked that he forgot to breathe for a few seconds before snapping out of it.

"WHAT!"

"Shh!" Director Chi put a finger over his lips and looked around. He awkwardly smiled at the other directors who sat at the table like him and turned to his assistant director. "That's right. ran Yue got the role."

Director Chi confirmed it already.

The assistant director couldn't believe it. The role was still free several minutes ago. And there were several actresses who came to audition for that role. What did this mean? That Ran Yue was much better than the other actresses outside?

Excuse me? The assistant director looked at Director Chi with unrestrained disgust in his eyes. Although it was a bit exaggerated, the assistant director still couldn't approve of Ran Yue. It wasn't only because she used the back door to get the role from others and didn't even come to the audition to act the role in front of the directors for appearance sake, it was also because the assistant director thought that Ran Yue didn't have the right foundation to act.

Ran Yue was a member of an Idol group. Other than dancing, singing lip sync on stage, and acting cute in front of the fans and the camera, what qualifications did Ran Yue have that she beat all veteran and trained actresses in the waiting room to get the role?

"Are the directors and investors right in the head? They don't want their money back and just want to waste it away from an amateur actress?" The assistant director couldn't stop himself from asking.

Director Chi also felt helpless. He was one of the directors alright! But how could he win against several directors and investors when they all agreed to take in Ran Yue as the female lead?

"I don't know. I'm not going to stress myself over this matter. Ran Yue might be an amateur but she still acted in some movies and dramas last year." Director Chi patted the assistant director on his shoulder.

The assistant director frowned and retorted, "Yeah, she acted in those movies and dramas as a side character and second female lead. But have you forgotten?"

Director Chi: "What?"

"That all of the role she played was also heavily criticized by the media and netizens? Those movies and dramas she played in was also rated with a low rate and was almost taken away from the cinema and got their spots taken away?" Assistant director licked his lips before adding, "Aiya... This movie is done for. So done that I might look for my next job in the street next time."

Director Chi watched as his assistant director left while shaking his head and contemplating on how he would live in the street as a beggar. On the other hand, Director Chi felt a bit sad and frustrated.

He knew what his assistant director was saying. Though he was biased towards his goddess, Director Chi knew that the assistant director would say the same thing even if Ran Xueyi was not around. Ran Yue was really not a good actress to play such a heavy and emotional role in the movie.

Even though the female lead role was already taken by someone else, the audition for it was still ongoing. The production staff looked on in pity as these actresses did their best to get a chance to get the role of the female lead yet, it was stolen from them even before the actual audition started.

Nevertheless, the production staff didn't say a word to anyone and let things flow as it is. After all, it was normal for some actresses or actors to use a backdoor to take a role from someone in this industry.

Thus, instead of fussing over it, they all proceeded with their job, acting as a background.

Ran Xueyi talked to the actress sitting beside her. The female actress looked cute and adorable with a hint of her baby cheeks still present.

Looking at her focus and trying to memorize her lines, Ran Xueyi smiled to herself. She was also like this when she started out as an actress.

Ran Xueyi remembered being so nervous when she first arrived at her first ever audition as a child actress, and soon after the audition was done, she cried so much that her eyes were red the whole day.

Thinking of it again, her parents weren't present when she first passed the audition or when she cried tears of joy. They were busy attending Ran Yue's school play and left her alone to audition.

It must be at that time that she should have started to show her suspicion on her parents' behavior and attitude towards her. They never really showed any interest in her matters and also didn't appear when she achieved something. And even though there were times when they did show their joy, Ran Xueyi was unsure when it happened and if their happiness was real.

"Miss... Is there something on my face?" The female actress on her side asked, taking Ran Xueyi out from her memory lane.

Ran Xueyi blinked her eyes a few times and smiled, "No... I was just lost in thought because you look very cute."

The female actress blushed. Never did she expect that someone so beautiful like the woman sitting next to her would actually say she was cute.

Even if a man were to say that she was cute and pretty, the female actress would only think they were hitting on her and ignore them.

But who would expect that her heart would flutter when she saw Ran Xueyi smiling at her and calling her 'cute'.

"Oh... Really?" 𝗳𝐫𝘦e𝘸𝗲𝚋𝓃𝚘v𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝒐m

Ran Xueyi nodded. "Of course. I think out of all of us here. You are the cutest."

The female actress flushed once again. Her face to her neck was red all over.

Not wanting to embarrass herself, the female actress tried to veer the topic away and asked, "Are you also here for the female lead role?"

The role of the young princess who fell to the eunuch who would become her greatest enemy was what everyone here wanted to get. Even the female actress wanted it.

Knowing what exactly the other was thinking and talking about, Ran Xueyi shook her head.

The female lead role was eyed by many actresses. The battle for this should also be bloodier. However, Ran Xueyi guessed that any one of them wouldn't be fated to get the role.

Earlier, when she sat in her seat, she didn't observe the other actresses in the room. The first thing she observed was the production staff and their attitude towards the people who auditioned for the female lead role.

However, after observing for a while, she found that they were lukewarm. Thus, she came to a conclusion.

The production team has already found someone for the female lead.

"No, I'm not here for the female lead. I am here for the second female lead role," Ran Xueyi replied with a smile as she narrowed her eyes.
