Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser Chapter 516 - Approaching Xie Mingxuan

Chapter 516: Approaching Xie Mingxuan

Director Li was filming on set. He originally thought that Zhou Manning would be out for a month or two, and had been looking for a female lead. He had just confirmed a candidate, who was fairly popular. This young lady’s acting skills were good and she was a newcomer. Director Li had just asked her to come over for an audition, but who would have thought they would run into Zhou Manning.

Since Zhou Manning’s injuries were caused by a malicious ghost, Wu Fuzhang gave her some kind of pill. After taking it, Zhou Manning saw the wound on her stomach actually heal several times over.

It was also because of this that Zhou Manning now increasingly believed that Yang Zhaoning’s master was an expert, someone who was even grander than the Chi woman. Zhou Manning was pleased. She thought of how that Chi woman had repeatedly rejected her; did that woman think she was the only one Zhou Maning could beg for help?

Thinking of how this Chi woman had harmed her three or four times, a sinister glint flashed in Zhou Manning’s eyes. After she borrowed Xie Mingxuan’s luck, she definitely wouldn’t let this woman have it easy!

At that moment, Zhou Manning pretended not to see the newcomer in front of her, and also forgot about being given the role of the third female lead. She beamed at Director Li and said, “Director Li, my injuries are almost healed. When can I continue filming?” Without waiting for Director Li to speak, Zhou Manning continued, “Director Li, I remember you said that as long as I recover in half a month, I’ll still be the female lead, right?”

Ever since “Zhou Manqing’s” lackl.u.s.tre acting, Director Li had been wondering if he should switch to someone else. When she was injured and hospitalized, Director Li was relieved. However, who would have thought that “Zhou Manqing” would recover right away and come over personally?

Although Director Li had some selfish motives, he was still a good person, and there was sincere worry in his eyes. “Manqing, you should know that your character has a lot of action scenes. You can’t ignore your injuries because of the role. It won’t be good if you fall ill!”

Zhou Manning curled her lip and said, “Director Li, I’m really fine! I happened to run into an expert who helped me out in pa.s.sing!”

Director Li saw that her complexion was indeed good. Since Zhou Manning had said so, and he had promised her back then, he could only agree now, even if he didn’t want to. “Okay; why don’t you try filming in the afternoon? If you’re really fine, I won’t replace you, but if your body can’t take it…”

Without waiting for Director Li to finish speaking, Zhou Manning swept a glance over the stiff little girl next to her, and interrupted him with a smile. “Director Li, don’t worry; I don’t take my health lightly!”

It was also because of Zhou Manning’s return that Director Li could only let the new girl act as the third female lead first.

“By the way, Director, where’s Movie Emperor Xie?” Without waiting for Director Li to speak, Zhou Manning said, “Director Li, I remember you saying that Movie Emperor Xie’s acting is especially good. I also think that I’ve dropped a lot of scenes recently. I’ve read the script a few times, but there are still some things I don’t understand. Can you get Mingxuan to explain them to me? I also want to rehea.r.s.e scenes with Movie Emperor Xie!”

Director Li was very pleased that Zhou Manning was trying to improve herself. Also, “Zhou Manqing” was still the female lead, which was very important. He immediately called Xie Mingxuan over to help explain some scenes to “Zhou Manqing.”

Xie Mingxuan inexplicably felt a bit repulsed by the woman in front of him. Zhou Manning’s eyes lit up when she saw Xie Mingxuan. Her gaze was scorching hot, even hotter than the last few times they ran into each other. Xie Mingxuan inexplicably felt repulsed and felt that there was something wrong with the way this woman looked at him. The last few times, she had deliberately flirted with him, but she hadn’t been serious or shown much enthusiasm. Now, however, she was too enthusiastic and solicitous, which made him very uncomfortable!

Zhou Manning was all smiles as she said, “Movie Emperor Xie, let’s not disturb Director Li. How about we go to the side?”

Since Director Li had given the order, no matter how much he disliked “Zhou Manqing,” Xie Mingxuan could only endure it. He nodded expressionlessly and said, “Mm!”
