Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife

Inside a hotel suite.

Qin Ling groggily opened her eyes and wiped away the drool that slid down on the left side of her cheeks. She blinked her eyes and felt a surge of headache in her head as soon as she sat up.

Last night, she and her friends went out to a club and the entire night, they spent it drinking and dancing on the dance floor.

'Bang, bang!'

Qin Ling sat upright in a startle when she heard the banging sound. She looked at the direction of the door of her hotel room and frowned. Who the hell dared to bang their fists against her door?

In an angry manner, Qin Ling made a beeline towards the door and was about to scold the person knocking their fists against it. However, when she opened the door, it was her mother who was standing before her.

"Mo-mother? What are you doing here?" Qin Ling gathered her eyebrows in disbelief. Wasn't today the day her mother would go out for a short vacation trip with her friends? Why was she here in front of me instead of with her friends?

Qin Ling didn't get an answer as her mother shot an indignant look in her way and said, "Why haven't you answered my calls? Do you even know what day and time it is?"

Qin Ling never saw her mother looking so angry and fierce like this. A sense of fear was engraved in her system as she backed a step away from her mother while saying, "I just woke up and I didn't hear your calls because my phone was set in silent mode."

"Good!" Qin Ling's mother was red as she raged when the faint scent of alcohol drifted into her nose. "You went out to drink with your friends again, didn't you? Qin Ling, do you even remember that today was supposed to be your first day at a movie shoot? And you still dare go out last night and come back drunk?!"

Qin Ling finally remembered that she was supposed to be with the crew of the movie "The Great Empress' Love'', and that she would be up against another actress who wanted to covet her role!

"Mother! What time is it now?" Qin Ling turned away from the door and went inside the room without looking back. She went through the closet and threw a dress to the bed. She heard her mother say, "It's already 9:30 in the morning," from behind her.

"What?!!"

Qin Ling couldn't believe it. The booting ceremony would start at around eight in the morning. The latest the crew could wait for a missing member of the production was thirty to an hour long. However, the movie "The Great Empress' Love'' was adapted from a that had millions of fans all over the world. Thus, the importance of being punctual was even more serious.

"Why didn't you come any sooner and wake me up!" Qin Ling shifted the blame to her mother for her lateness.

Qin Ling's mother couldn't reply to her daughter's shamelessness. However, at this point, she couldn't really scold her daughter and tell her it wasn't her mother's fault but hers, alone. Qin Ling's mother helped the young actress to get ready.

"Wait!" Qin Ling raised her voice and stopped all her actions.

Her mother also stopped with her arms raised in midair. "What's wrong?"

Qin Ling whitened as she screamed, "Makeup! I just woke up and my makeup from last night ruined my face! Quick, call the head makeup artist in F Salon!"

"Are you kidding me?" Mother Qin smacked her daughter's arm and told her, "Forget about the makeup, just wash your face and apply light makeup! There's no time for you to call for a makeup artist."

They were way too late to come in time for the ceremony. Where did she find the need to look for a makeup artist?

However, Qin Lin's stubbornness came pouring out and she was determined to get a makeup artist to doll her up. "No! I won't step out of this room if there's no makeup artist who will help me fix my makeup!"

"You...!"

Qin Ling sat on the edge of the bed and crossed her arms in front of her chest, looking very resolute in having a makeup artist come and do her makeup.

Mother Qin knew her daughter. Without any choice, she called her secretary and ordered her to get a makeup artist.

...

At the booting ceremony.

The directors lined up and held the incense in their hands and bowed a few times. This was a way to drive away any misfortune or evil spirits from the shooting site and also to ask the heavens for blessings and fortune. The actors and actresses were also provided with these incense and did the same thing.

After a while, the directors let the reporters and journalists come forward to question the main casts.

As one of the main casts, Ran Xueyi was needed at the front. The flashing of the cameras was too familiar to her and she felt a sense of pride for standing once again in front of the media.

p "The "The Great Empress Love' is loved by many fans all over the world. Directors, are you planning to follow through the and not make any changes?" One of the reporters asked. He motioned for the camera to capture the faces of the directors who would soon answer his question.

Director Chi nodded his head in response: "Yes, the directors and producers already thought that the is a masterpiece. So, we didn't make any major changes. I'm sure all the fans of the original will also fall in love with the movie."

The reporters and production team were satisfied with the answer that came from Director Chi. As soon as he was done, the questions continued to rain down on them until one reporter came forward and made everyone silent with his question.

"Several media sources released an article, revealing the casts of the movie a week ago. However, amongst the actors and actress written by these media sources, I don't seem to see the actress Qin Ling."

Looking left and right, the reporter ended his question after saying, "Were there some changes in the casts?"
