Chapter 420: Present A Perfect Performance
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
Tang Xi ran to the shooting set. When she arrived, Ning Yan, He Wanyi and He Wanzhou were sitting in their chairs in a daze, at a loss as to what to do… especially Ning Yan. The other two didn’t look as angry as him.
Tang Xi walked up to them, she felt a bit guilty. She gently coughed and smiled. “What happened?…Why do you look worried?”
Seeing Tang Xi, He Wanzhou stood up with a solemn look. He quickly walked up to her and said, “Rourou, I’m sorry. Your endorser ran away because of me. I’m to blame!”
“Don’t be stupid!” Ning Yan stood up, glared at him and turned to Tang Xi, asking, “Now Tang Xi has quit. What should we do?”
Tang Xi turned up the corner of her mouth and gave him a graceful smile. “Don’t worry. Let’s start to shoot the promotion clip. I wrote the script, so I remember every detail clearly. I don’t need to read it again.”
He Wanyi looked at Tang Xi in astonishment. Her second brother had told her that Xiao Rou agreed to shoot the TV commercial of Magic Butterfly with the condition that they agreed for Xiao Rou to wear a half-face mask. Nobody else knew that the girl in that TV commercial was actually Xiao Rou who used the alias Tang Xiao, except the insiders.
Many people tried to find out who Tang Xiao was, but none of them traced back to Xiao Rou. Now if she shot this promotion clip, it would cause an absolute sensation.
“Rourou, can you tell me why you suddenly changed your mind?” He Wanyi asked with a smile.
Tang Xi took He Wanyi’s hand and chuckled. “Well, I insisted on wearing a mask at that time because I was not confident with my acting skills… Now Director Ning is working so hard for me, I should try my best to help him finish the job. Besides, the script is suitable for me to act in indeed. Let me star in the promotion clip. Then I can also save some endorsement fees.”

Hearing her words, He Wanyi nodded with a smile. “Good. I heard that you refused your family’s sponsorship, because you wanted to depend on yourself. Now starring in this promotion clip can save you a lot of money. That’s good for you.”
Ning Yan clapped and said, “Okay, that’s settled. Xiao Rou and Wanyi will star in the promotion clip. We’ll start filming when the staff have come over.”
At this time, Ning Yan suddenly found that Xiao Rou seemed to become prettier. He gazed at Xiao Rou and was sure that she had become more beautiful. Did she have cosmetic surgery? … Xiao Rou’s face was really a mystery.
Seeing that the problem was settled, Tang Xi smiled and secretly heaved a breath of relief.
This was a great chance for her to enter the entertainment industry! Otherwise, she didn’t know where to get another chance!
Why did she have to enter the entertainment industry? She could be the goddess of the business circle!!
[008: Goddess of the business circle can never become a goddess of the nation.]
Tang Xi paused and widened her eyes. “Why did you suddenly pop up?! You scared me!”
[008: Only when you become the goddess of the nation can you be deemed as taking a successful revenge.]
Tang Xi, “Master 008, I know! Could you please just keep quiet? I’m going to shoot the video.”
Tang Xi forcibly shut down the system and leafed through the script in boredom, waiting for the filming to be started…
Soon the photographing staff had arrived, so had the extras… Tang Xi and He Wanyi had put on the costumes and began to perform…
The story was simple. A pretty girl was abandoned by her parents. She lost her confidence because of this experience. However, one day she met He Wanyi who was the boss of a garment company. She saw her great potential and asked her to put on the clothes her company designed. She invited her to be her company’s model but the girl, who had an inferiority complex, didn’t think she deserved such beautiful clothes and refused. She didn’t think she could be a princess in the beautiful clothes…

The female boss tried over and over again to persuade her and finally had her put on the clothes. In the end, the girl was ushered into her true metamorphosis and became a rising star.
Although the script was simple and not detailed, Ning Yan managed to extend it to a twenty-minute long video. Tang Xi felt that what she gave Ning Yan was just bones, but Ning Yan fleshed out the script and made it a real masterpiece.
No wonder Ning Yan was so famous. Although he didn’t know her well, he perfectly presented the ideas in her heart.
After they had finished shooting the clip, Ning Yan looked in satisfaction at Tang Xi who just gave a perfect performance. He rested his hands on his hips and said with a smile, “Xiao Rou, I think you can make a good actress. I even have the confidence that we can win an Oscar together.”
Tang Xi lowered her eyes and her eyes had a glint. She presented a perfect performance because of the all-purpose skills of 008. However, she didn’t expect that because of her performance, Ning Yan would invited her to cooperate with him!
He Wanyi had also seen Tang Xi’s potential from her acting. She was sure that Xiao Rou could become a globally renowned actress with the help of Ning Yan. She hadn’t seen any other person who was more talented in acting than Xiao Rou… including herself.
“Yes, Rourou, I think you have a gift in acting. You will have a lot of fans if you choose to become an actress.” He Wanyi didn’t want to see such a genius waste her gift. She had a feeling that if Xiao Rou didn’t become an actress, it would be a pity for the whole of the entertainment industry.
Hearing their words, Tang Xi looked at them and felt so flattered. “Really? I mean… did I really perform well?”
