Chapter 12

Qi's father entrusted Qi Xingge to hand over an ancient painting. This time he went abroad to collect scenery, and happened to meet an auction, so he stopped by to have a look. He happened to see a good painting. Remembering that his friend Jiao Changting has always liked to collect these, he decided to photographed.

It was late when Qi Xingge came out from home, so he could only deliver the paintings the next day.

Jiao Changting and Qi's father have known each other since they were students. They are both directors, but their styles are completely different. They often quarrel while talking, and make up after a while.

Qi Xingge was often taken to Jiao's house to play when he was young, and he was watched by Jiao Changting and his wife growing up, but when he got older, he rarely had the opportunity to meet.

This time when Qi Xingge came to the door, Jiao Changting and his wife were very happy, and they kept her talking.

Jiao Changting's wife, Zhang Chunying, and Qi's mother are also good friends. When they saw Qi Xingge coming, they cut some fruits and asked Qi Xingge to taste them.

"Xing Ge looks better, but she's a little too thin. You filmmakers, you don't have time to eat and sleep when you're busy, so you have to pay attention."

Jiao Changting was listening on the sidelines, being humiliated by his old wife for a while, he didn't dare to speak, he just pretended not to hear, and changed the subject: "Xingge, I went to see your new movie "Red World". , but there are a few shots I want to discuss with you."

What he said was a discussion, but it was clearly a point of view that was brought up after careful reading. Jiao Changting and Qi's father are both directors who have been famous for decades, so their perspectives are naturally different. Qi Xingge listened carefully to his advice and asked A few words, pondering in my heart.

Jiao Changting could see that Qi Xingge was listening with his heart, and his heart was also ironic. Qi Hao, an old guy, even complained to him that his daughter was too arrogant and didn't listen to him, which was clearly distorting the facts.

Qi Xingge listened carefully, and he also taught carefully. After finishing those points, he talked for quite a long time. After taking the tea cup handed over by Qi Xingge, he couldn't help sighing, "It's better for my daughter. How can that boy Xingyuan have any problems?" So sweet."

Jiao Xingyuan is Jiao Changting's son. He grew up with Qi Xingge, and he was compared with Qi Xingge from time to time. He was quite hostile towards Qi Xingge, but it was just a child's awkwardness. Later, he went abroad to study medicine. It is rare to see him once a year. .

In the last life, after Qi Xingge went abroad because of those messy things, he ran into Jiao Xingyuan again, and they still had some contact with each other. The awkwardness of childhood was gone, and they finally got along well.

Qi Xingge smiled when he heard the words, knowing that Jiao Changting was just speaking in anger, he clearly missed his son, and asked, "Xingyuan will return to China soon, right?"

Jiao Changting pretended to be disgusted, and the corners of his brows and eyes were clearly happy, and said: "I am so busy every day that my feet are on the ground, it is rare to be a little fake, so I know how to go home."

Jiao Changting put the teacup back on the table and remembered something, "Xingge, do you have any plans for the next movie?"

"Not yet, I want to slow down and think about it." After rebirth, Qi Xingge really needs time to think about the next steps. She has experienced the next ten years, and her mood has long been different. It is more like polishing her own movie. .

Jiao Changting nodded in agreement when he heard the words, and said, "It's good for you to think so. I happen to be preparing a movie. If you have time, why don't you come and help me?"

Qi Xingge was taken aback, there was nothing like this in the previous life, but Jiao Changting said so, naturally he wanted to teach her well, why would she not do it?Responding simply, "If I can help, Uncle just ask."

"Okay!" Jiao Changting slapped his thigh, and the matter settled down, "I'll give you the script, and the audition will start the day after tomorrow, so you can also help me out!"

Zhang Chunying saw that the old man had nothing to do with the movie. Seeing that the time could not be found, she interrupted quickly: "Okay, let's stop chatting, and come to eat soon. Xingge hasn't come for a long time. Let's have a try, Auntie." Has the craftsmanship improved?"

After having lunch and talking again, Jiao Changting and his wife let Qi Xingge leave and agreed to meet at the audition the day after tomorrow.

When Qi Xingge returned home, he opened the script, and there were two large characters written on it - "Undercurrent".

……

On the day of the audition, Song Miao went downstairs to Li Jia early in the morning, knocked on the door, and saw Li Jia opened the door, Song Miao looked up and forgot what she was about to say, "Sister Jia... "

Li Jia was wearing a well-tailored cheongsam, embroidered with delicate peony patterns, which complemented her slender figure, slender waist and long legs, her hair was pulled up obliquely with a hairpin, and her eyes glowed with hope.

Seeing her standing there blankly, Li Jia called softly, "Miao Miao, what's wrong?"

Song Miao came back to her senses, her face was flushed, and she said like a little girl: "Sister Jiajia, you are so beautifully dressed like this."

Li Jia pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "After all, Qiuniang was the most beautiful girl in Shanghai at that time, so she was too careless to dress up too simply."

Song Miao nodded vigorously, wishing she could take a picture and post it on Weibo for those fans to lick. She felt a little guilty for no reason.

Before Song Miao arrived, Li Jia had already packed up, and the two rushed to the audition scene without delay.

It was still early when they came, and after registering at the front desk, they were led into the waiting room. At this time, there were only a few people in the room, and when they saw Li Jia coming in, they all quietly looked at her with seemingly non-hostile eyes glance.

Li Jia found a corner and sat down, unfolding the well-read script on her knees, looking down, it would be better to sharpen her gun for a while than to put hostility on her competitors.

Li Jia read the script for a while, and the number of people in the room gradually increased. She raised her eyes to look over, and some of them looked familiar, as if she had often seen them on TV some time ago.

When she got the script, Sister Keren told her that the male and female protagonists of "Undercurrent" were already decided by investors. The popular Xiaohuatian Qiuyi, and the director Jiao Changting is directing, the box office is absolutely guaranteed.

Therefore, she will never have fewer competitors, and she can only try her best to do her best.

Li Jia breathed a sigh of relief, closed the script, put it on the seat, talked to Song Miao, and went to the bathroom.

All the rooms on the audition side looked similar, it took Li Jia a while to find the bathroom, it was empty and there was no one there.

Standing in front of the mirror, Li Jia looked down at the water flowing past her fingertips. The cold water temperature made her nervous gradually calm down.

After a while, Li Jia turned off the water, took out a paper towel from the side and wiped her fingers carefully. When she looked up at the mirror, the emotion in her eyes changed slightly, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly like a flower in the mist. Obscure and elusive,

The person in the mirror tilted his head, touched his red lips with his fingertips, and his eyes were stained with teasing, as if he was looking at those who were fascinated by her.

After a while, the teasing in the eyes of the person in the mirror faded away, Li Jia put down her hands, calmed down, and looked up at the time, it was almost time for the audition.

She turned around to throw the tissue, stepped on the high-heeled shoes and didn't take a few steps, and was stepping on the water stains that were not wiped clean on the ground. She lost her center of gravity and was about to fall to the side.

Li Jia was startled, there was nothing to support on the other side, so she fell over like this, and she might not be able to try the mirror later.

In the blink of an eye, the pain that Li Jia thought was about to come did not appear. Her wrist was pulled, and she leaned backwards, meeting a body with a light soapy fragrance.

Li Jia looked up in panic, and met a pair of nervous black eyes. For a moment, a feeling of deja vu flashed across her heart.

"Are you okay?" Qi Xingge frowned slightly when he saw Li Jia was stunned, and asked worriedly.

Li Jia panicked, stabilized her body, supported Qi Xingge's arm to stand firm, "Sorry, thank you."

Qi Xingge saw that Li Jia had stabilized her body so quickly, and felt a little disappointed. Noticing Li Jia's pale face from fright, she did not loosen her brows, and said in a soft voice, "You're welcome, I can see how you look. Not too good, did you twist your foot just now?"

Li Jia quickly shook her head, calmed down, looked up at Qi Xingge, and said, "No, thanks to you."

When her gaze touched Qi Xingge's eyebrows, the sense of familiarity reappeared, and Li Jia hesitated and said, "Are you...Miss Qi?"

Qi Xingge's eyes moved slightly, but his heart was a little guilty. He didn't expect that Li Jia would recognize her like Bao Cheng when we met last time. I just hope that Li Jia didn't notice her terrible appearance at that time, and her body couldn't help being a little stiff. nod.

Seeing her nodding, Li Jia's brows and eyes were gradually stained with a smile. Looking at Qi Xingge, she said softly, "I've been thinking about when I'll see Ms. Qi again, but I didn't expect to meet her here."

When Qi Xingge was looked at by her like this, she felt the temperature on his cheeks rising rapidly. Li Jia said that he always wanted to see her, as if he was talking about love.

Just as Qi Xingge was about to say something, a younger girl came into the bathroom, wearing staff clothes. Seeing Qi Xingge, her eyes lit up, and she shouted, "Director Qi, Director Jiao is looking for you. The audition is about to start."

Qi Xingge responded, "Go and tell Director Jiao first, I'll be right back."

The female staff member's eyes stopped on Li Jia's body, but her back was turned away from her, she couldn't see her, she responded and backed out.

Li Jia was taken aback when she heard what the female staff member said just now,... Director Qi?

Her eyes turned to Qi Xingge, and seeing that the other party was also looking down at her, she felt that she didn't know where to put her hands and feet, and she had a guess in her heart, so she shouted with difficulty: "Director Qi?"

Qi Xingge was startled, then laughed and said, "Why are you calling me that suddenly?"

Usually Qi Xingge's face is always faint, and it is rare to smile, the already good eyebrows and eyes softened, and they were unfolded in front of Li Jia like a picture scroll.

Qi Xingge gently picked up a strand of hair that had fallen from her forehead, put it behind her ear, smiled softly, and said, "You look beautiful today, come on!"
