Ling Xiaosu didn't even have the chance to ask what had happened before she turned and left.

Ling Xiaosu looked at the man walking away, unable to speak for a long time.

What had happened that made him so anxious? She really wanted to know, but the heaven defying official had already walked far away. The words that were stuck in her throat never left her mouth.

For the next week, Ling Xiaosu did not see anyone who could defy the will of the heavens. Ling Xiaosu tried to find out from Zhao Wenjie about the current situation, but it seemed like he had predicted this would happen.

This was the first time Ling Xiaoshan felt so frustrated.

As the filming of the new screenplay began, Guo Qi unexpectedly continued to interview the female lead of the drama.

Originally, Ling Xiaosu's favorite candidate was still Li Xiaoyi, but now that Li Xiao was abroad and had left the entertainment circle, it was simply impossible for her to continue filming. Ling Xiaosu looked at Guo Qi and saw that the best person to match the female lead in the movie was none other than her.

Plus, Guo Qi was obviously here for the female lead.

Ling Xiaosu looked at Guo Qi who was fixing her nails and ignored her. His eyebrows twitched, "This movie doesn't have any famous directors. Are you sure you want to interview the female lead?"

Guo Qi blew on her repaired nails and looked at Ling Xiaosu with the corner of her eye slightly raised, "Of course I'm here to interview the female lead. Otherwise, do you think I'm sitting here to play with you?" Don't joke around, who would be in the mood for that? "

Ling Xiaosu found it strange. Guo Qi was clearly the number one actress in the company, but why did she come over and over again to audition for a movie that was produced by an obscure director? What kind of benefits could she get?

Before Ling Xiaosu could say anything, Guo Qi had already lost her patience and said, "Don't use such a clumsy excuse to reject me again, and say something about how it doesn't match the characters in the movie. Heh, how many artists in this industry can match the characters in the movie? They were all fabricated. "

Ling Xiaosu frowned. She didn't like the way Guo Qi spoke at all.

Guo Qi was still blabbering on. "I came to interview you because I wanted to give you face, or do you think I'd want to be a female lead if I didn't come to your small movie crew? "What a joke!"

Ling Xiaosu was annoyed, but she didn't show it on her face. Instead, she smiled at Guo Qi, "Since you don't mind me being the female lead for this insignificant movie crew, then I'll have to trouble you to get up and walk to the left. The door is over there, thank you."

Ling Xiaosu rejected Ling Xiaosu's offer without hesitation. Regardless of who she was, a first-tier artist's acting skills were still the best and his reputation was good. It was fine as long as he made her feel uncomfortable.

Speaking of which, this kind of behavior was actually a little willful.

Guo Qi's expression changed, "Ling Xiaosu, why do you not know what's good for you? Look at those interviewees on your crew. Who else is more suitable for you than me? I tell you, no one has ever dared to say such things to me. "

"Then I'm the first." Ling Xiaosu retorted lightly, "Those who are here to interview my female lead are lacking in first-tier actors, but we do not lack in second-tier and third-tier actors. No matter how bad they are, they should be able to sustain the plot."

Hearing this, Guo Qi seemed to have calmed down. She said with embarrassment, "I won't bother with your disrespecting me. Let's just talk about the script."

Ling Xiaosu raised an eyebrow, looked at Guo Qi and said calmly, "I'll give the script to your manager. Let's talk about the cooperation first."

"Now, let's assume that you are from Party B and I am from Party A. You have to listen to my commands during the filming process and it might be a little difficult for you during the filming process. However, if you do not take the filming midway, or if you delay the filming progress of the film crew, we will immediately switch players."

Hearing this, Guo Qi's face seemed to accept it. "I've been in TV dramas for so many years, of course I know about it. I don't need you to tell me."

It was best if he knew, Ling Xiaosu thought.

Guo Qi looked at Ling Xiaosu and asked nonchalantly, "I would like to ask, who is the male lead playing with me?" If it's that brat who's still wet behind the ears, I won't be acting. "

The brat Guo Qi mentioned before was still wet behind the ears was Chen An.

Ling Xiaosu took out a contract and a pen from her bag and handed them to Guo Qi. "Who do you want?"

More accurately speaking, Ling Xiaosu still wanted Chen An to continue being the male lead for her. However, from Guo Qi's tone, it sounded as if she was extremely unwilling for Chen An to take part in a movie with her.

Guo Qi looked down at the contract in front of her, crossed her arms over her chest, and looked at Ling Xiaosu Su, with a disdainful tone, "It's fine who it is, just don't be a wet behind the ears brat and play with him. If your online drama gets popular, then you can't let too many fans come to my Weibo and scold me for eating noobs."

Actually, Guo Qi didn't want to partner with an unknown minor artiste, as that would ruin her quality as a first-rate artiste.

"We'll see when the time comes. You should sign the contract first." Ling Xiaosu did not say yes, nor did she say no. This was something that could only be decided by herself.

Guo Qi took a look and happily signed the contract. Then she took out a pair of sunglasses from her bag and put them on. After applying lipstick, she stood up and smiled at Ling Xiaosu before extending her hand, "Happy cooperation, Director Ling."

Ling Xiaosu stretched out her hand and shook it before smiling politely, "I hope for a pleasant cooperation."

Guo Qi let go of her bag and left. The female lead of this online drama was finally settled.

"Sister Ling." Little An walked out from behind him, frowning. "Guo Qi said not to partner with Chen An, but we've already told Chen An's agent that the male lead is already Chen An's. If anything, we'll say that it changed halfway …"

"Nope." Ling Xiaosu said firmly, "The male lead is still Chen An. There will be no unforeseen events."

Little An breathed a sigh of relief, but in the next second he started to worry again. "But Guo Qi's attitude …"

"The conditions have already been signed. There isn't a clause on the contract that says that an artist can ask the director to replace the male lead." Ling Xiaosu said slowly as she kept the signed contract.

No matter what, Guo Qi was just an artiste. No matter how dissatisfied Guo Qi was with Ling Xiaosu being the director, she didn't have the authority to film with her.

Little An was thoroughly relieved this time. "That's good, that's good."

It was close to the afternoon. Ling Xiaosu picked up his mobile phone and opened the contact list. He pressed the phone number with his finger, revealing a hesitant expression.

A moment later, Ling Xiaosu clicked on the number that would call the heaven defying official and called him. After about ten seconds, Ling Xiaosu hung up the phone and placed his hand back on the table.

During this week, the heaven defying official had not taken a call from her. Ling Xiaosu really wanted to know what the heaven defying official was doing.

She didn't answer her phone for some reason.
