The Genius Doctor, My Wife, Is Valiant Chapter 173 - Hitting a wall

Chapter 173: 173: Hitting a wall

Director Pan also realized that Jing Qian was speaking her lines from the back of her mind, not even looking at her script.

It didn’t matter if she had also memorized the other’s lines, but he believed that she had memorized all of her own lines.

“Great! Very nice! Well done!”

Director Pan’s eyes were glowing. He initially thought that Jing Qian was just a beautiful n.o.body and already had a plan in his head for that scenario. If her acting skills were really awful, he would just get her to move around more. Then, he would get a few shots of her face with different expressions and would just cut these scenes into different parts of the show.

He had never expected Jing Qian’s performance to be at such a good level, even if this was just a table read. Director Pan suddenly felt as if the dark cloud above his head had disappeared and the sun was out. His dull, sulky mood was now replaced by a warm, happy mood.

He was now filled with confidence in this show, which was filled with people who came with connections.

As for Qin Yi and Yan Meiqi, who sat next to them, their faces turned dark when they saw how natural and tacit the main couple was.

Jing Qian and Yunxiao’s table read went on smoothly and it was over with just one try. The following scene was with the first and second female leads, which were Jing Qian and Yan Meiqi.

In the show, the female and second lead were best friends, the kind where they are willing to sacrifice their life for each other. The first female lead was in love with the first male lead and the second female lead was in love with the second male lead. However, the second male lead had fallen for the first female lead.

This sort of friends.h.i.+p may seem plastic, but for these two girls, they were still able to remain the best of friends.

The main person who influenced the relations.h.i.+p was the second female lead. The main leads were in love with each other and her relations.h.i.+p was stable. Therefore, it was up to the second lead to decide how she would choose between her relations.h.i.+p and her friends.h.i.+p.

Of course, the main female lead was aware of all of that. She knew of the feelings that her best friend had for the second male lead and she also knew that he was in love with her. Therefore, in this scenario, the main female lead would have to carefully deal with the relations.h.i.+p between this man and her best friend.

The scene that they were discussing spoke about how the second female lead had just been rejected by the second male lead and was talking to her best friend about it. Soon after that, they were ordered to complete a mission that was extremely dangerous.

As soon as Director Pan finished explaining the scene, the table read started.

As an award-winning actress, Yan Meiqi had certain standards and status in the entertainment industry. However, as soon as she said her first line, she was stopped by the director.

“Maggie, you are the second lead. Although your personality is cold and valiant as well, it shouldn’t be so much that it covers the first female lead’s aura.”

Yan Meiqi took a deep breath and looked at Director Pan, “I don’t think that my aura is too overbearing, but I do think that Jing Qian is the one who isn’t doing enough. As a top-grade mercenary and the head of the mafia, don’t you think that she was a little too weak? Jing Qian, I think that you could be a little stronger while looking at me.”

With that said, Yan Meiqi looked up from her script and locked eyes with Jing Qian’s deep and pressuring eyes.

Yan Meiqi was shocked, and while facing such a superior and arrogant glare, she immediately felt her aura collapse.

“Why… Why are you looking at me like that?”

Jing Qian then withdrew the glare and said, “I thought you were the one who said that I should be a little stronger while speaking to you?”

Yan Meiqi was at a loss for words.

“No matter how tough one is, they would always have a gentle side to them when they are with their loved ones. I don’t think that there’s anything wrong with Jing Qian’s performance. Maggie, I think that what you said wasn’t right.”

Yunxiao’s words immediately caused Yan Meiqi’s face to turn awful.

Yunxiao was lecturing her because of Jing Qian!

She has been with him for years, but she wasn’t better than this newcomer, whom he has just met a couple of hours ago?!

** Author’s note: The male lead (Zhan Lichuan) is still a quadriplegic now and his ident.i.ty is still a mystery, which is why he would only help her secretly. He will only appear after his surgery. For those who are missing him, please wait for him!
