Chapter 210: A Tool to Make Money

Translator: Zayn_

“Cut the crap and give me the money. I’m in a hurry to leave. I don’t have time to waste here with you!”

“Mom, I really don’t have money…”

“You said you didn’t have money last time, but didn’t you give it to me later?”

“That’s really all the money I have… The new movie hasn’t started shooting yet. 1 don’t have money now!”

The familiar voice belonged to Zhao Yingnan.

The person who was talking to Zhao Yingnan was her mother, whom Song Qingyou had met once before.

The content of their quarrel was the same as last time.

Song Qingyou listened for a while, and Zhao Yingnan had already sent the woman away. The reason she used was that she would borrow money as soon as possible.

Song Qingyou frowned, thinking about waiting for the two people outside to leave before she went out.

But as soon as the woman left, Zhao Yingnan pushed the door open and entered the bathroom.

Seeing that there was someone in the bathroom, Zhao Yingnan’s pupils constricted.

When she saw that it was Song Qingyou, she heaved a sigh of relief and smiled.

“You should have heard everything, right?”

“I had no choice. My mother… She has always been like this.”

Zhao Yingnan lowered her head, and her voice became softer and softer as if she had been abandoned.

“Who do you plan to borrow 300,000 yuan from?” Song Qingyou sighed.

If she remembered correctly, that woman had asked for 200,000 yuan last time, right? This time, she wanted more.

“I-” Zhao Yingnan wanted to say something but hesitated. After a while, she whispered,” Just… Borrowing from people in the circle.”

As far as Song Qingyou knew, Zhao Yingnan’s popularity in the circle was average. There was a high probability that there was no one who could lend money without any conditions.

She thought for a moment and said, “I can lend it to you, but you have to return it on time.”

Zhao Yingnan suddenly raised her head. “Qingyou, didn’t you say that your father is still in the hospital?”

“He woke up some time ago. His recovery is going well.”

“Is that so… That’s really a good thing…”

Zhao Yingnan’s eyes were filled with undisguised envy.

She probably hoped that her brother could recover.

“I’ll get Sister Lan to transfer the money to you later. You just have to write up an 1OU when you have time. Write down when you’ll pay it back.”

“This is the second time I’ve heard your mother ask you for money.” Song Qingyou paused and asked, “How long has it been? Why does she want so much money? Do your parents have jobs?”

Zhao Yingnan shook her head. “Dad and Mom have to take care of my younger brother. They resigned a long time ago.”

Song Qingyou frowned. This situation was obviously them sticking onto Zhao Yingnan’s body to suck her blood! Using Zhao Yingnan as a money-making tool!

She thought for a moment and asked, “Did you persuade them to look for another job? How can you take out hundreds of thousands of yuan every time if you make money alone?”

“I tried to persuade them…”

Zhao Yingnan stammered and couldn’t say the follow-up for a long time.

It was obvious that she must have been criticized by her parents. She might even have been pointed at and scolded for being unfilial.

Song Qingyou didn’t want to talk about other people’s family matters, so she didn’t say anything else.

“Why are you here?” Zhao Yingnan took the initiative to change the topic. “Are you here to watch the play?”

“You’re not?”

“I’m here to rehearse.” Zhao Yingnan pulled the corner of her mouth. She seemed to have thought of something and looked up.

“Since you came to watch a play, you should be interested in it, right? Then do you want to try acting? 1 can recommend you to the teachers here.”

It just so happened that Song Qingyou had lent her money, so she owed her a favor.

If she could recommend her to act in a play, they would be considered even.

Song Qingyou didn’t think too much about Zhao Yingnan’s thoughts and only replied, “I came with Senior He Yuan. We’re going to watch a play first before auditioning for the new play. If everything goes well, we won’t have to trouble you.”

Disappointment flashed in Zhao Yingnan’s eyes, but she quickly pulled herself together.

“Then 1 wish you success.”

“The play is about to start. I’ll be leaving first.” Song Qingyou nodded.

Zhao Yingnan watched her leave before she retracted her gaze. She looked at herself in the mirror and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito, “When will my luck be so good…”

When Song Qingyou came out of the bathroom, He Yuan, who was sitting in the front row, raised his hand to signal her to sit over.

There weren’t many people in the theater. Out of the 1,000 seats, only half were occupied.

However, this was normal.

Compared to other arts, drama was more high-class and less popular. Not many people liked or paid attention to it.

Moreover, the play Peach Blossom that was about to be performed today was from decades ago. Those who could watch it had already seen it long ago.

Peach Blossom was a play within a play. It was about the dispute between two men and a woman.

The three modern protagonists were preparing to rehearse a play from an ancient novel. In the middle of the play, there would be controversy and debate due to the plot, and then they would guide the characters in the play and the outsiders to complete the discussion of the topic.

As the curtain rose, under the dim lights of the stage, a male voice appeared:

“The curtains were fluttering in the white jade hall, and the bed is decorated with green. The Chu girl was thinking, and her hair was fluttering.”

The light shone on the man in ancient clothes. A woman’s voice came from behind the bamboo curtain.”Brother, are you talking about me?”

“I’m talking about the rain. The curtain of rain is like a curtain hanging in front of the white jade hall. The sound of the rain is like a mat, rolling on the jade bed…”

The following lines were written like a poem.

If the lines were not up to standard, it would be no different from reciting the text. It would make people feel bored and uncomfortable.

However, the voices of the few people on stage were controlled and infectious. It was easy for the audience to be immersed in it.

The play that they were rehearsing in the play was the source of the debate.

It was about Feng Yan having an affair with Zhang Ying’s wife. Zhang Ying got drunk one day and came back early. Zhang Ying’s wife hid Feng Yan.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Ying lay down in a daze and pressed on Feng Yan’s turban that had fallen on the bed.

Feng Yan pointed at the bed and asked Zhang Ying’s wife to bring the turban back. Zhang Ying’s wife misunderstood him and thought that he was going to take the knife at Zhang Ying’s waist and kill her husband, so she gave the knife to him. In the end, Feng Yan thought that Zhang Ying’s wife was a ruthless woman and killed her with the knife.

The story was very simple, and there were only three characters.

However, the play was a combination of ancient and modern times, with clear layers. It used a small story from ancient times to lead to a debate about the different choices made by the two sides due to misunderstandings in their feelings. It was very interesting to watch.

More than an hour later, the actors took their curtain calls and the audience left in twos and threes.

“How do you feel?” He Yuan turned to look at the person beside him.

“Not bad.” Song Qingyou nodded.

She could tell that these drama actors were very capable.

Just by talking about the foundation of the lines, the insiders could tell.

Regular audience could also watch the show. For example, the three actors did not use a microphone throughout the entire process. The voice that spread throughout the entire audience was their original voice.

Also, their acting skills were as good as the actors on the big screen.

“If you were asked to act, would you be able to do it to this extent?” He Yuan asked again.

“Not yet.”

“It’s only temporary. That’s fine.” He Yuan smiled in relief.

He believed in Cui Xuelin’s judgment. If Cui Xuelin said Song Qingyou was talented, then Song Qingyou definitely wouldn’t be bad..
