Let’s Divorce As Agreed-Chapter 818: Rumors
Chapter 818: Rumors
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Gu Huanhuan was a woman of her word. As soon as she thought about it, she immediately dialed Wen Chi’s number. However, the phone rang for a long time without anyone picking up.
An hour later, Wen Chi saw her missed call and returned it.
“What’s the matter, Miss Gu?” Wen Chi’s voice was always so clear, like it was free of any impurities.
“Oh, Dr. Wen, I wanted to ask how much the car repair cost?” Gu Huanhuan felt a bit flustered, startled by the sudden return call.
“Oh, that’s what it’s about. But I’m currently out of town for a study program and won’t be back until the day after tomorrow. We can talk about it then.” Wen Chi hadn’t really intended to ask her to pay. The amount was minor, but he hadn’t expected this girl to be so concerned, keeping it on her mind all this time.
“Alright.” She could only wait for his return, though she felt a bit dejected that this matter would continue to weigh on her mind.
After hanging up, Gu Huanhuan settled down to read the script Sister Gao had given her. She had an audition in a couple of days for a role many others were vying for, secured only through Sister Gao’s extensive connections.
She had been eyeing Director Zhang’s new film, but her uncooperative foot had caused her to miss the casting call, so she had to let that opportunity go.
Luckily, there was now this new project to make up for it, a film by the renowned Director Guan.
The film, titled “Meeting By Chance,” was adapted from a lengthy novel. It told the story of childhood sweethearts who got separated and later reunited. The story spanned a significant amount of time, making it a challenging role to portray.
Gu Huanhuan had never acted in a film of this type before, so she was eager and excited about the opportunity.
The lead male role had already been cast, with the talented and popular young actor Wu Jie starring. They were now looking for the female lead. The film was adapted by a top screenwriter from a well-known novel and had already generated significant buzz online before shooting had even begun.
The production planned to invite a group of exceptionally good-looking idol newcomers, ensuring it would be a star-studded affair.
Due to the high profile of the film, many actresses were vying for the female lead role.
Gu Huanhuan wanted to understand the inner emotional changes of the female lead, so she took the time to read the novel. She was deeply moved by the resilience and strength of the heroine, which made her determined to land this role.
However, she was a bit troubled. She had previously filmed a commercial with Wu Jie, and there had been rumors about them, the first scandal she faced since entering the entertainment industry. If she did get this role, she worried that those old rumors might resurface.
It was quite a headache.
But then Gu Huanhuan reminded herself that she didn’t even know if she would get the role yet. Worrying about it now was just borrowing trouble.
…
The female lead, Yun Duo, in “Meeting By Chance,” was a dance major. Even though the film didn’t feature many dance scenes, Gu Huanhuan felt it necessary to brush up on her dancing skills. She had some background in dance and just needed to intensify her training.
“Lift your leg, turn, land on your toes, come on, one more time…” Taking advantage of her free time, Gu Huanhuan returned to the company’s dance studio to stretch and get back into the rhythm with the guidance of an instructor.
In the spacious practice room, the instructor watched the increasingly agile girl with genuine admiration.
The harder you work, the luckier you get.
Gu Huanhuan wore black practice clothes, her long ponytail tied high, tracing a graceful arc through the air with her spins. Her dance was already beginning to take shape.
