Qiao Xi had hoped to find some inspiration for Ning Yicheng, but unexpectedly, after she demonstrated with Tang Xu, the depression on Ning Yicheng's face became more obvious.

She is a little confused.

"What's the matter?"

Ning Yicheng waved his hand: "thank you for demonstrating this paragraph with Tang Xu. I think I already know how to express my emotions."

Next, Ning Yicheng's play soon passed, but there was still no joy in his face.

Qiao Xi pulled Tang Xu's clothes incomprehensibly: "you said that the shooting had passed. Why is Ning Yicheng still unhappy?"

"Do you care if he is happy?"

She immediately waved her hand for fear that Tang Xu, like Tang Zhen, misunderstood her feelings for Ning Yicheng.

"I care whether he is happy or not, just because we are working on the same film now, and don't want any reason to affect the shooting progress."

Tang Xu rubbed her hair, smiled and said, "well, I have no other meaning. What are you doing so excited?"

"How do I think if my answer doesn't satisfy you, you have other meanings?"

"Nonsense!" Tang Xu took her and sat down. "He's unhappy. It may have something to do with me."

"Why?"

Tang Xu sighed: "I also saw some news on the Internet before. Many people think he is somewhat similar to me in appearance. Fosun entertainment began to hold him after I terminated the contract. It is inevitable that he has some ideas in his heart."

"So now he subconsciously compares himself with you, and it turns out that his acting skills may not be as good as you, so he's not happy?"

"Maybe."

"These public opinions are too harmful. He has just made his debut and has nothing to compare with you," Qiao Xi grabbed his hand and showed some pride in his eyes. "Moreover, in acting, you are a genius. Whoever compares with you should have low self-esteem."

Tang Xu raised his hand and scraped her nose: "if you continue to say that, I will be complacent."

"You have the capital to be complacent."

……

"How are you feeling on the crew recently?"

Ning Yicheng carefully picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip: "the director is very kind to me. I have no problem getting along with my colleagues."

In fact, he heard people in the crew talking about his relationship with Hao Jia more than once, but he didn't intend to tell Hao Jia about these things.

"I'm not asking about your relationship with your colleagues. I'm asking how you feel about filming?" Hao Jia frowned slightly. "The termination of Tang Xu's contract has a great impact on our company. We urgently need to cultivate a person who can replace Tang Xu in terms of fame and acting skills. Do you understand?"

Ning Yicheng put down the cup in his hand and nodded, but Hao Jia's words pressed a stone on his heart, making him almost out of breath.

His condition in the crew was getting worse and worse. As soon as he finished the play, he sat in the corner and recited his lines like a robot.

The director was worried that giving him too much pressure would backfire, so he didn't dare to go to him, so he had to find Qiao Xi.

"Ning Yicheng's state during this period of time is too wrong. It's obviously much better before. I think the relationship between you two is pretty good. Why don't you go and talk to him."

Qiao Xi took a look at Ning Yicheng, who was in a low mood. He really can't let him go on like this. When filming today, he almost got hurt because of distraction.

She took a bottle of mineral water, went to Ning Yicheng, took out the script in his hand, and then stuffed another bottle of mineral water.

"Are you okay?" Qiao Xi asked anxiously, "when we just hung Weiya, the people of our crew were frightened."

"I'm sorry, did I give you trouble?"

Qiao Xi's eyebrows wrinkled slightly. Who did Ning Yicheng learn Chinese from? It's too problematic for her understanding. Or does she look like she's coming to ask questions.

"You didn't give us trouble. I just think if you go on like this, you will give yourself trouble. If the people in the prop group hadn't reacted quickly, you would have been pulled away by the ambulance."

Ning Yicheng still lowered his head and didn't look into her eyes: "I'm really sorry that the shooting progress has been delayed a lot these days because of me!"

Qiao Xi patted him on the shoulder: "your state is really wrong recently, but I didn't come here to hear you apologize. Since you have a problem, you should solve it."

Seeing that he didn't speak, Qiao Xi could only continue to advise: "if you have something in mind, you might as well tell me. It might be more comfortable to say it."

Ning Yicheng looked up and saw that there were people everywhere in the set and lowered his head again.

"I'll adjust myself."

"Why don't we have dinner together in the evening? Last time you invited me to dinner, this time it's my turn to invite you to dinner."

After the play, Qiao Xi sent Tang Xu a text message telling him not to pick himself up tonight, so he took Ning Yicheng to the reserved box.

Qiao Xi said with a smile, "this is the hotel under my brother's name. There will be no risk of being photographed. Don't be too formal."

Ning Yicheng looked at the menu again and again. He still had no appetite. He ordered two bottles of red wine and stuffed the menu into Qiao Xi's hand.

"I have no appetite now. I'd better see what you want to eat."

Qiao Xi ordered a few dishes at will and poured a glass of red wine for Ning Yicheng. She was a little sorry and asked, "did Tang Xu visit the studio and give you psychological pressure?"

Ning Yicheng waved his hand: "no, I do have psychological pressure, and it does have something to do with Tang Xu, but it has nothing to do with him coming to the set, and he really benefited me a lot by auditioning for me."

"Did those comments on the Internet put pressure on you?"

Ning Yicheng opened his mouth, but he still didn't say anything.

"If you don't want to tell me, it doesn't matter. Eating more in the evening is regarded as releasing the pressure. There's nothing delicious that can't be solved. If there's anything, eat twice."

Qiao Xi gave him a shrimp: "the braised prawns in this shop are very good. You can have a taste!"

No matter how well the food was cooked, the people who had hidden things in their hearts couldn't eat it. Ning Yicheng didn't eat much, but drank a lot of wine.

"Drink less and shoot tomorrow!"

Ning Yicheng held a goblet in his hand, shook it gently twice, and then filled himself with another cup.

He looked at Qiao Xi dimly: "sister Qiao Xi, I'm really happy to partner with you in this play. You not only don't look down on me, but also care about me and help me everywhere!"

"This is what I should do. I believe that if I have a problem now, you will help me, and I have no reason to look down on you!"

Ning Yicheng shook his hand: "but many people in the crew despise me. Although they don't dare to show in front of me, I've heard it several times."
