Chapter 126: Chapter 126: They’re All Drama Queens
Li Yi’s heart skipped a beat. Why was Ruan Jiajia being brought up again? Could they have really been discovered?
That shouldn’t be possible. His affair with Ruan Jiajia was so secretive, and this woman was brainless.
It was probably just her way of making comparisons, something she often did.
Fools are blissfully unaware!
Although he felt disdainful inside, his face had to show nothing but adoration, “Of course you’re beautiful. How could Ruan Jiajia possibly compare to you?”
These words infuriated Ruan Jiajia so much that she turned and walked away.
...
Seeing Ruan Jiajia angry, Li Yi was worried inside, but he had no choice but to stabilize the situation with Lu Huashan first.
Ruan Jiajia was nothing more than his plaything, but Hua Shan, she was his road to wealth!
As if seeing through his thoughts, Lu Huashan played even more enthusiastically, acting affectionate and not letting Li Yi leave.
And Li Yi had to pretend to be the lovesick prince in response.
Xia Weibao was sitting off to the side, snacking and watching the drama unfold.
Actors for sure, their acting skills are top-notch!
Finally, when Lu Huashan was almost sick of it, she magnanimously let him go.
Li Yi hurried after the beauty.
Seeing his eagerness, Lu Huashan thought, she must have been blind in the past!
“Not breaking up?” Xia Weibao asked with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile.
She discovered that Lu Huashan could actually be quite scheming.
“Not breaking up, I’ll play them to death!
Right, didn’t you record a video of that dog man and woman? Send it to me.”
When she slimmed down and transformed into a stunning beauty, causing Li Yi to lose hope in her completely, she’d then kick him to the curb!
And then watch as he falls from grace, his reputation in tatters for years to come!
Xia Weibao sent her the video and with a twirl of her eyes said, “Since you treated me to snacks, I’ll give you a tip.”
“What kind of tip?”
“Isn’t Ruan Jiajia filming the post-transformation part of Li Qingguo? Snatch the role from her.”
“Me?”
“Exactly. The role of Li Qingguo undergoes such a massive change from the beginning to the end of the show that everyone thinks two actors are needed. If it’s played by the same person, such a dramatic transformation will definitely be a major selling point!
Plus, when you succeed in losing weight, it will make headlines, which could really boost the popularity of ‘Allure’.
Your acting is better than Ruan Jiajia’s; Director Xu would definitely agree to a cast change.”
“No way,” Lu Huashan said, taken aback.
“The problem is, Li Qingguo is the number one beauty in ‘Imperial Harem’. How can I act that part with the way I look now?”
“You’ll slim down, won’t you? I’ll control the dosage so you won’t slim down too noticeably in the first month—it’s more about conditioning your body. The following month is when the drastic weight loss happens.
We’ll focus on filming the earlier parts first, then you can go back and devote yourself to slimming down, precisely when you need to combine it with plenty of exercise.
In the meantime, we can film the other characters, and once you’re completely slimmed down, we’ll focus on shooting the darker transformation of Li Qingguo.
It’s a tight schedule, but having you play both parts would be too intriguing a hook to pass up—’Allure’ would become famous without needing much promotion!
However, you’ll have very little time for filming later on and would need to get every shot on the first take. Can you handle that?”
Excitement welled up inside Lu Huashan at this meticulously planned blueprint.
Maybe it really was worth a try…
If she actually succeeded, it would propel her and ‘Allure’ to stardom in one fell swoop!
Thinking of the humiliations she’d suffered, Lu Huashan’s hands slowly clenched into fists.
Li Yi, just you wait!
You look down on me today, but tomorrow, I’ll be out of your reach!
So, the two of them went to find Xu Jiayang and shared their ideas.
The look in Xu Jiayang’s eyes was no different from someone watching two fools…
