Chapter 108: New Script

Shi Lu also brought herself a glass of whiskey. His glass was specifically made to reduce the acidity of the wine and increase the concentration of the wine, making it easier for him to get drunk. Then, he found a seat and sat down to chat with Zhang Zhang.

The two of them chatted about the suspense dramas they had been watching recently. This was their common hobby, and every time they talked about this topic, they would talk non-stop.

Coincidentally, both of them had watched this mystery film before, so they chatted with relish.

Zhang Zhang suddenly thought of something. “Speaking of which, the director of this mystery movie is also here today!”

Shi Lu didn’t believe it. “Wang Shen? He also attends this kind of ball?”

Zhang Zhang spread her hands out as she said helplessly, “Please, aren’t you paying too little attention to the ball? You’ve been here for so long, but you didn’t even see who is attending the ball! I saw Wang Shen the moment I entered. He was surrounded by people talking about the new script!”

Shi Lu laughed awkwardly. He had always forced himself to attend such occasions for the sake of appearances. Even if he came, he would leave soon after. He didn’t care who came.

He asked, “Wang Shen just won the Golden Magnolia Award for Best Director. At a time like this, he must have endless invitations. Why would he fancy this sort of wrap banquet?”

Zhang Zhang shook his head. “I’m not sure, but I heard from a reporter that Wang Shen came to the ball this time to choose the male and female leads for his script. I think he’s here for you. With your status and acting skills, he’ll probably try his best to win you over!”

Shi Lu said disdainfully, “Tsk, I’m very picky when it comes to choosing scripts. If his script doesn’t meet my expectations, no matter how good a director is, I won’t act in it.”

“Yes, yes, yes. You have ambitions. Anyway, I really want to act. If I act in his script, I might be nominated for the Golden Magnolia Award for Best Actress. At that time, won’t my net worth double?” Zhang Zhang looked intrigued.

Shi Lu recalled Yuan Shu’s supervision of him. She had once asked him about his development plan in the entertainment industry. Shi Lu knew that if he was as much of a slacker as before, even if he had the Shi family’s support, he would still be eliminated from this industry and would let Yuan Shu down.

“No, I can’t disappoint Sister-in-law.” Shi Lu turned to ask Zhang Zhang, “Do you know what this script is about?”

Zhang Zhang had a mocking look on his face as he teased, “Looks like our arrogant Second Young Master Shi also thinks for himself at times.”

After Zhang Zhang drank half of the cocktail in his glass, the alcohol rushed to her head, making her cheeks even redder. “Let me tell you in detail. This is a story that happened in ancient times. It’s about a young lady from a military family and a top martial artist.”

Shi Lu interrupted, “Isn’t that a very cliche story? A young lady from a military family and a top martial artist.”

Zhang Zhang rolled his eyes. “Can you let me finish? Although this story is cliche, it’s still a little different. The male lead and the second male lead of this story are respectively the top scorers in the martial arts and liberal arts subjects.”

Mu Zhou asked the attendant for a glass of vanilla water. When he brought it to Yuan Shu, there was an unknown person standing beside her. Although the two of them were chatting and laughing, Mu Zhou could tell that Yuan Shu kept her distance.

Mu Zhou walked over with the water. “Yuan Shu, here’s your water.”

The way he addressed Yuan Shu seemed a little deliberate.

As expected, the person beside Yuan Shu froze slightly and turned to look at Mu Zhou.

Yuan Shu introduced politely, “Mr. Li, this is Mu Zhou, a music director.”

Then, Yuan Shu introduced the person to Mu Zhou. “Mu Zhou, this is Mr. Li Ci.”

Yuan Shu couldn’t think of a suitable identity for him, since he was involved in almost all industries.

However, to outsiders, he didn’t have any formal profession. He didn’t belong to the political or business world, so it was more appropriate to say that he was unemployed. Therefore, Yuan Shu didn’t give him an identity..
