69 The test


Lin xiwen’s expression softened a little. On the other hand, hou Xiling took a piece of tissue from the tissue box in front of him. He stood up and handed it to Jiang se. “Miss doukou, are you okay?”


This was different from the plot. Lin xiwen had also read the script by heart, so she looked at hou Xiling in surprise.


Jiang se accepted the tissue with a calm expression. Lin xiwen noticed that she was holding the tissue like a handkerchief. She held it between her fingers and gently rubbed it against her eyes.


Lin xiwen clearly saw her in a different light from this small action. A smile appeared on hou Xiling’s face.


“It’s just that she sings too well.”


When she spoke, she did not look at hou Xiling. Instead, she kept staring in the direction in front of her. It was as if she did not like people disturbing her peace and quiet. She stubbornly kept a distance from people.


Doukou’s loss of self-control seemed to have only lasted for a moment. She quickly restrained her emotions and pulled on her shawl with a lazy expression.


Jiang se was still young, but when she did this, Lin xiwen could see her petite and round shoulders wrapped in the cheongsam. When the shawl was pulled down, one could vaguely see a corner of her shoulders.


She quickly wrapped the shawl around herself, but the temptation was only unintentional.


Very quickly, he changed his view of Jiang se. The charm she displayed at that moment was even more alluring than ye yingfei’s.


The dark blue cheongsam set off her snow-white skin, and she leaned against the armrest of the chair. She was as beautiful as an exquisite painting.


She was different from the ‘doukou’ that Lin xiwen had initially thought of as a prostitute. Lin xiwen had always thought that this character was more prepared for ye yingfei, but now it seemed that a person with a clean temperament was more attractive than a flirtatious person.


Once Lin xiwen had changed her mind, she no longer looked at Jiang se with the preconceived notion that she was not suitable for the role.


He flipped through the information in his hands. Jiang se was still in her first year of University. She was still young. However, the contradiction was that her aura was not the kind of frivolous temperament that a young girl would have. On the contrary, she seemed to have experienced something that made her feel familiar.


It seemed that the performance on stage had already ended. She was still holding the ‘handkerchief’ that someone had handed to her and sighed faintly.


She stood up, as if the time for her to indulge had passed. She unhurriedly pulled at the folds of her dress and carefully stroked the corner of her dress. Her movements were neither fast nor slow, but in the process, her expression gradually changed.


Although her eyes were still red, her expression became more determined, and her back slowly straightened. She had once again changed from a girl immersed in her memories to the doukou who had gone through hardships and followed an jiuxiao.


She once again walked in the direction of the door she had come in from. This time, her footsteps were different from the light ones she had come in with, but the ones she had left with were much heavier.


Jiang se deliberately stomped harder. Her high heels made a ‘Dong Dong’ sound. Every step she took seemed to be knocking on her heart.


She walked to the door, and Lin xiwen nodded with a satisfied look on his face, ”


“Not bad.”


To be honest, Jiang SE’s acting skills still needed some room for improvement. However, she was smart enough to grasp two points.


One of them was ya, who was born into a rich family, and the other was the determination she had when she was ready to leave after listening to the play.


Especially after she had finished listening to the play, the moment she stood up, she had revealed her inner struggle about leaving Pear Garden on Tianqiao Street, leaving the ‘atmosphere’ of the past, and the day of March 7th by stroking the corner of her clothes and pulling her shawl.


Her expression also changed very well, and the change from a slightly worried expression to a determined expression was very natural.


Most importantly, when she left, Jiang se deliberately stomped on her feet harder than before. There was a dull thud, but it was a sharp contrast to her determined expression and straight back.


This was very important. It did not mean that she had performed well. What Lin xiwen meant was that she had understood what hou Xiling wanted to express and was trying her best to express it.


When doukou had left, she had been very reluctant.


She was like a girl immersed in a dream. She regarded the pear Garden on Tianqiao Street as the dream home of her family, which had not died in the hands of the invaders on March 7th.


She clearly knew that this was fake, but she couldn’t help but feel nostalgic. She knew what kind of harm she would suffer in the future and end up in the dust.


Because of these psychological changes, when she left, her steps seemed to be a little hesitant. It was her subconscious resistance, but at the same time, she understood what she was facing, so she was like a determined warrior. After a brief moment of relaxation, she was ready to face the current situation.


Jiang se knew that doukou was contradictory. Therefore, hou Xiling smiled when he saw her performance.


Earlier, assistant li had mentioned that Jiang se liked his work. In reality, hou Xiling had some doubts about that.


His work excavated human nature more than love. It was not suitable for the taste of young people nowadays. He felt that Jiang se had mentioned him because she wanted to get the role of “doukou” in the series to increase her affection for her.


However, from the looks of it, Jiang se had a deeper understanding of the characters in his work. She also understood the feelings he wanted to express. She must have read her script and thought deeply about it before she could understand it.


“Thank you, director Lin.”


Jiang se turned around. She bowed at Lin xiwen before she saluted hou Xiling.


“Teacher hou, thank you for the tissue you gave me just now.”


Hou Xiling waved his hand and asked with a smile, ”


“The little girl is very good.”


He was old, his hair was white, and his body was a little thin. He was wearing presbyopic glasses and an old-fashioned Tang suit, which couldn’t hide his scholarly aura and friendly expression.


This was not Jiang SE’s first time seeing him up close. Compared to six or seven years ago, hou Xiling was in better spirits. However, time waited for no man. He was somewhat different from her impression of him as an old man who would give a speech at the top academy.


She shook hands with hou Xiling. The staff moved the chair that she had been sitting on earlier as a prop over. She also sat down on one side of the chair.


it’s not good enough. I hope I have the opportunity to learn from teacher hou and director Lin in the future.


Lin xiwen had obviously heard this kind of conversation too many times, so she just smiled and didn’t respond.


On the other hand, hou Xiling had a good impression of Jiang se because he had figured out what he wanted to express when she left Pear Garden as doukou. When he heard this, he said, ”


“I heard from Xiao Li that you’re a student from the first Academy?”


“Yes, I’m in my first year of University this year,” When Jiang se heard this, she knew that the main event was about to begin.
