Although the movie was categorized as a mystery and criminal investigation, this movie was still a commercial drama. The plot was not particularly outstanding, but it firmly grasped the audience’s psychology and aesthetics.

Therefore, regardless of the plot, the main characters in the movie were still very outstanding.

Shen Huan was one of them.

Song Qingyou silently tried to figure out the character’s setting, recalling the plot and lines in her mind.

Shen lluan’s character was complicated. On the surface, she was an obedient daughter and sensible sister. In front of the female lead, a psychologist, she almost did not reveal any flaws.

Inside, Shen Huan was a sick lunatic. In the name of revenge, she killed two innocent women and the wife of the father who abandoned them, just to satisfy the bloodthirsty desire in her heart.

Of course, her ending would not be good.

However, after she was caught, she was diagnosed with mental illness and her death sentence was suspended.

Song Qingyou read the script for more than half an hour. Luo Hongqing was not in a hurry and waited for her to prepare.

He thought Song Qingyou would have to watch over him for at least a few hours, so he was going to ask his assistant to buy some food. He didn’t expect that just as he opened his mouth, Song Qingyou would stand up and say she could start.

This happened to be Song Qingyou’s “Memories in Dreams” scene, so there was a bed on site.

Luo Hongqing sat up straight and raised his hand to signal Song Qingyou to start the performance.

Even though he was very dissatisfied with the person recommended by Zhao Yingnan, he still had the respect he should have.

Song Qingyou hid under the bed and closed her eyes, ignoring the outside world and her surroundings.

When she opened her eyes again, her entire aura had completely changed.

How did Shen Huan feel when she hid under the bed when she was young? Fear, nervousness, fear, helplessness.

However, this was Shen Huan’s dream. She had grown up, but she was still afraid and terrified. However, she was more excited. It was the excitement that was stimulated under extreme nervousness.

Song Qingyou was very good at controlling her emotions.

Even without any lines, just from her actions and expression, one could tell what she wanted to express.

Luo Hongqing sat up straight, trying to calm down the excitement in his heart.

Based on the scene just now, he was sure that Song Qingyou was more suitable for the role of Shen Huan than the original third female lead.

Zhao Yingnan saw that the director was stunned. She felt a little confident and quickly went forward to ask, “Director Luo, how was Qingyou’s acting? Isn’t it good?”

Luo Hongqing nodded. He couldn’t bring himself to apologize. He could only say with a tense face, “It’s alright.”

“Then what Director Luo means is-”

“If there are no other jobs for her in the near future, let her join the filming team.” Luo Hongqing’s attitude softened.

Zhao Yingnan gave Song Qingyou an OK gesture and congratulated her in a low voice.

When Song Qingyou signed the contract, she told Luo Hongqing that she had to go to the Jing City Theater three times a week to rehearse the new play in September.

Luo Hongqing agreed without hesitation. “No wonder Zhao Yingnan recommended you. It turns out that you are also rehearsing a play… Who’s in charge of the new play?”

“Teacher Wu Juan.”

Luo Hongqing said, “No wonder. Just let me know in advance. I’m familiar with your Teacher Wu.”

It was because they were acquaintances that he knew how strict Wu Juan was.

Now that Song Qingyou had passed Wu Juan’s interview on her first try, Luo Hongqing felt that he had picked up a treasure.

After both parties signed the contract, Zhao Yingnan thought about arranging a place for Song Qingyou to stay.

The film studio they had gone to for the period drama wasn’t far from where Song Qingyou lived, so they didn’t have to stay in a nearby hotel.

However, the location of the Murder of the Rose film crew was quite far away, and it was not convenient to go back and forth. Song Qingyou definitely had to stay in a hotel.

The two of them stood up and walked out as they talked.

Then, she suddenly heard someone say, “Why are you here?”

Song Qingyou raised her head and saw Zhu Jiao’s shocked face.

There was someone standing in front of Zhu Jiao. Her short black hair was clean and had a refreshing style, her skin was fair and beautiful, and the clothes she wore looked expensive. She also had a noble aura.

She was about the same height as Song Qingyou, and she was frowning as she looked down at her.

Zhao Yingnan was worried that Song Qingyou didn’t know anyone, so she quickly whispered, “Qingyou, this is Teacher Zhong Jiayin, the female lead of the movie.”

Of course, Song Qingyou knew Zhong Jiayin’s name.

Before Lin Siya jumped ship to Shengshi Entertainment, she had always been above Zhong Jiayin. Later, Lin Siya’s popularity dropped, and Zhong Jiayin became the second most popular artist on the Celebrity Rankings.

Zhong Jiayin and Gu Xingchen were both artists from Yinghua Entertainment. Both of them came from well-to-do families. Gu Xingchen was much more low-key in this aspect, while Zhong Jiayin did not have much to worry about.

Countless people in and out of the entertainment industry knew that Zhong Jiayin was a rich young lady.

In the early days, there were people who compared her to Shen Xiyan.

However, many people felt that the two of them could not be compared because Shen Xiyan was humble, polite, and gentle. On the other hand, Zhong Jiayin was rumored to have a bad temper in private and liked to show off her wealth. Her eyes were always on top of her head[l].

In front of her, Zhao Yingnan almost shrank her neck.

Zhu Jiao took the opportunity to say, “Sister Zhong, the person I told you about before is her. Song Qingyou.”

“I really don’t know what she’s doing here. Doesn’t she know that the production team can’t just let anyone in? Sister Yingnan, did you bring her here?”

Zhu Jiao knew Zhao Yingnan’s character. She called her sister without any respect for her senior.

Zhao Yingnan never liked to cause trouble, so she explained, “Qingyou has recently joined the cast.”

“New cast member?” Zhu Jiao’s expression was ugly as she pointed at Song Qingyou. “You mean she’s acting as Shen Huan?! Can she act?”

Zhu Jiao was shocked and furious. She could only play a small supporting role, so how could Song Qingyou play the third female lead?

“Miss Zhu, if you have any objections, you can ask Director Luo.” Song Qingyou stepped forward and pressed her hand down.

“If you want to talk, then talk. Why are you pointing at me?”

Zhu Jiao raised her hand, wanting to argue with Song Qingyou, but the other party grabbed her and tightened her grip.

“Hiss-”

Zhu Jiao gasped in pain. Unable to struggle, she complained to Zhong Jiayin, “Sister Zhong, look at her! To directly attack in front of you is too disrespectful!”

Song Qingyou was too lazy to argue with them. She let go of Zhu Jiao’s hand, nodded at Zhong Jiayin, and then pulled Zhao Yingnan’s sleeve.

“Let’s go.”

Zhao Yingnan was worried that Zhong Jiayin would be angry. Before she left, she turned around and explained, “I’m so sorry, Ms. Zhong. Qingyou has other things to do. I’ll send her out first.”

Song Qingyou didn’t have any scenes scheduled for today, so she could go back and pack her things.

After the two left, Zhu Jiao didn’t forget to give Zhong Jiayin a piece of her mind.

“Sister Zhong, this Song Qingyou really doesn’t care about people. She didn’t even say hello and ran away! She even hurt my hand like this!”

Zhu Jiao pulled up her sleeves, revealing her arms that had red and purple marks.

“Weren’t you the one who provoked her?” Zhong Jiayin raised her eyebrows and shot her a glance.

“She started it!” Zhu Jiao explained through gritted teeth.

“Alright.” Zhong Jiayin interrupted her. “I’ll go ask Director Luo about the situation.”

Zhu Jiao was delighted. “I’ll go with you.”
