Chapter 667: It’s Such A Coincidence That It Makes People Wonder

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Xiuwei couldn’t help but suspect that Jiang Xun had no intention of acting in the comedy from the beginning.

She was fishing!

She deliberately lured him out and made it seem like he had snatched the role from Jiang Xun.

Jiang Xun once again displayed her noble character and integrity. She sacrificed the possibility of her advancement to protect the others so that the others would be grateful to her and remember her good deeds. At the same time, they would also despise the person who insisted on snatching the comedy performance from Jiang Xun and wronged her. Coincidentally, that big bad person happened to be him.

Xiuwei thought gloomily.

He regretted it now. At this time, it was related to whether he could advance or not. How could he care about his face?

Since this concerned his future, Xiuwei did not care about his reputation and said to Gu Fei and Jiang Xun, “I thought about it. I don’t have a good grasp of comedy. Since Jiang Xun wants to act, why don’t we let her act?”

“Then, when I say yes, will you regret it again?” Jiang Xun raised her eyebrows and looked at him mockingly.

“No, I won’t go back on my word,” Xiuwei quickly said.

“What is this!” Qiyao frowned and couldn’t stand it. “Teacher Liu, you’re quite old. You’re fickle with a twenty-year-old girl like Jiang Jiang, and you still want Jiang Jiang to give in to you? What right do you have!”

“I told you from the beginning that the winning rate of comedy performances isn’t high.” Jiang Xun grabbed Qiyao’s arm, telling her not to say anything and to leave it to her. “Everyone agrees. However, the only comedy will also need to be performed by someone from our side. Since I was the one who suggested that everyone not act in a comedy, then I’ll act in this comedy. I’ll be responsible for winning or losing.”

“When you heard me say that I wanted to act in the comedy, you thought that I was deliberately tricking you. I deliberately said that comedy was not good so that none of you would choose it, and then I would act in it. Isn’t that right?” Jiang Xun retracted her gaze from Xiuwei’s face and glanced at the others indifferently. “Fellow teachers, did anyone think the same just now?”

“No, I definitely didn’t!” Nainai shook her head. “What you said makes sense. I believe you.”

Zeming and Xiangni also expressed that they believed Jiang Xun’s words.

“I was just advising Teacher Liu not to act in a comedy.” Li Ruijun said, “I believe you too.”

The others also expressed their opinions.

Jiang Xun nodded. Regardless of whether what they said was true or not, at least their performance so far indicated that that was indeed the case.

Jiang Xun did not pursue this matter.

“Teacher Liu, you have such thoughts and suspect me, but I won’t stoop to your level. But there’s no reason for me to rush to help you when you suspect me.” Jiang Xun said, “Moreover, since you’re looking at me with such a petty view, if

I help you but not give you the comedy role, you’ll be even more convinced that I did it on purpose because I wanted the role for myself, so you’ll want to get this comedy role even more.”

“Therefore, I might as well agree to help you outright. In the end, after I promised you, you will still come back to your senses and think that I was deliberately tricking you. You can show your noble character and get a good reputation, but you don’t have to act in the comedy, right?” Jiang Xun’s lips curled up coldly.

Xiuwei didn’t expect Jiang Xun to explain his thoughts so clearly.

How did Jiang Xun know what he was thinking?

Furthermore, what she said was completely accurate, exactly the same as what he thought!

The way Xiuwei looked at Jiang Xun changed.

His guess was right. Jiang Xun was not easy to deal with!

“That… that’s not what I thought” Xiuwei straightened his back. The more guilty he was, the more he straightened his neck and said, “If you don’t want to act, then forget it. I’ll act.”

“Teacher Liu, you have to make yourself clear.” Gu Fei said in a displeased tone, “Why do you say it in a way as if Jiang Xun can forget it if she doesn’t want to act? You were the one who took the scene from Jiang Xun, but now you don’t want to act anymore. You think you’ve been tricked by Jiang Xun and want to return the scene to her?”

“You make it sound like Jiang Xun is unwilling to act and has forced the role on you.” Gu Fei frowned.

Xiuwei was the last one to be chosen.

It seemed that neither he nor Qingchen was willing to choose Xiuwei.

However, his team had won the last match, and now they could have one more person as a reward. He really had no choice but to pick him.

It seemed that he and Qingchen were not wrong. Xiuwei was a person who could do evil things.

“Teacher Liu, our entire team doesn’t revolve around you. It’s not like you can act if you want to, and not act if you don’t want to, and in the next second, snatch a role from someone else.” Qiyao rolled her eyes. “You’re a grown man, yet you’re so fickle. Don’t you find it embarrassing?”

“Teacher Liu, it’s indeed your fault.” Zeming said in a deep voice, “Rui Jun also advised you just now. What did you say? You said that you wanted to act in a comedy, and you had already thought about it. You thought about it and wanted to act, but not Jiang Xun had only given you this movie for less than three seconds, and you suddenly dodn’t want to act? Your thoughts in these three seconds are even more thorough than before?”

“Teacher Liu, Jiang Xun is indeed thinking for us.” Xiangni said, “You weren’t in our team before, so you don’t know. As long as you ask Jiang Xun, she will tell you the truth.”

“If you believe her, follow her. If you don’t believe me, you can just do the

opposite. There’s no problem, ” Nainai said. “But it’s really inappropriate to be so capricious. This time, if Jiang Xun agrees to take the comedy role back, you’ll be thinking about it again. You’ll think that Jiang Xun is tricking you and want her to give you the comedy. Do you still want to act?” Xiuwei was especially embarrassed by everyone’s words. 𝑵𝐎𝒱𝗲𝐿𝚞𝗌𝑏.𝔠𝑶𝓶

“Then I’ll act!” Xiuwei said unhappily with a dark face.

This group of people had ganged up on him in order to curry favor with Jiang Xun!

Everyone looked at him and felt a little disappointed.

They had originally thought that the atmosphere in their team was especially good.

Everyone would work together and work hard to advance.

Although this outcome was unlikely, they were all working hard in this direction.

In the end, Xiuwei’s actions were really a bit disappointing.

Gu Fei and Qingchen continued on to choose their own performances.

After the final decision was made, they returned to their respective teams’ preparation rooms to discuss who would play what role.

However, Xiuwei did not have to participate.

This was because he had already “internally” decided on the part of the comedy performance.

When everyone saw his sad face, they felt amused and relieved.

Let him find trouble!

One moment this, the next that!

If he didn’t suspect Jiang Xun, he wouldn’t have such a difficult comedy role to perform now.

Meanwhile, Youlan followed Qingchen’s group to Qingchen’s team’s preparation room.

Jiang Xun still let everyone choose first, lest anyone else thought that her choice was good and came to complain to her again.

However, other than Xiuwei, the others all selected their scenes after careful consideration.

They would also communicate with each other about who was more suitable for which show.

The atmosphere was extremely good.

This time, there were only nine people left in the party. Xiuwei did not participate, so the only ones who truly participated in the discussion were Gu Fei and the eight other team members.

Soon, they came to a conclusion.

Coincidentally, what Qiyao was going to perform was a scene from “Path of Life” that Jiang Xun had acted in before.

Qiyao whispered to Jiang Xun, “I’ve watched ‘Path of Life’ several times, and I remember your performance too well. But I remember you said that it must be slightly different from the original actor’s performance. It can’t be exactly the same, or else it’ll be a copy. The audience won’t be able to tell the difference and won’t vote for me.”

Jiang Xun nodded. “Do you need my help?”

“You still have to practice on your own.” Qiyao said, “Even if your acting skills are good and you can pass after a few times, you still have to act with the other two groups. Otherwise, they will say that you are not cooperating.”

“I’ll go look for Director Guo. I’ll ask him to give me special treatment.” Qiyao whispered.

Jiang Xun recalled that Qiyao had a good relationship with Zilong and Haolun.

It seemed like they were friends of Qiyao’s elders. In short, they were the kind of people who could be very close to the two directors in private.

It was indeed not a problem for Qiyao to ask Haolun for special treatment.

Jiang Xun nodded. “If there’s anything, come look for me.”

This time, Jiang Xun had gotten a period drama.

This movie even caused a frenzy when it was released, especially the Jinghong Dance, which stunned all the audience.

Even now, people were still talking about it.

The performance segment that Jiang Xun received happened to include this Jinghong Dance.

However, Qingchen’s team had chosen this movie first, so Jiang Xun did not have the right to choose the role first.

She could only take the script to the practice room for now.

As soon as she entered, she saw that Xu Zhelin from Qingchen’s team was already there.

Seeing Jiang Xun enter, Zhelin smiled and greeted Jiang Xun politely.

“By the way, do you know who our guest actor is?” Zhelin asked. It was a good opportunity to start a conversation, or the two of them would just sit there and not speak, making it rather awkward.

Jiang Xun shook her head. “I don’t know who it is.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the door to the practice room opened.

Youlan walked in confidently.

“Sorry, I’m late. I just met up with the seven guest actors and chatted,” Youlan explained with a smile.

Jiang Xun did not expect Youlan to be their guest actor.

This was really a narrow road for enemies.

“Jiang Xun, what a coincidence. We’re actually acting in the same group again,” Youlan said with a smile.

“I didn’t expect it either. It’s such a coincidence that it makes people wonder.” Jiang Xun smiled faintly.

She did not believe in coincidences.

If Youlan didn’t actively find out which movie she was acting in and deliberately accepted to be the guest actor in it, Jiang Xun would have given Youlan 10,000 merit points.

Youlan’s smile froze. Could it be that Jiang Xun knew that she had deliberately found out which scene Jiang Xun was going to perform and had come over?

That was impossible!

Youlan pondered. She had been very low-key when she went to ask around.

Jiang Xun had been in the midst of Gu Fei’s team’s preparation, so there was no way she would have known.

“Let’s catch up later,” Youlan said with a smile. “Let’s assign the roles first..”
