Chapter 16 -16 Do You Think It’s Not Enough?_1

Her acting instantly brightened Director Xu’s eyes.

A smile almost overflowed from his face, as if he had been drawn into the plot, and he couldn’t help but interact with her, “You’re so mischievous and naughty, I wouldn’t want to adopt a kid like you.”

“…”

The audition no longer contained this part, and while most actors would have been frozen on the spot, Xia Ningxing wasn’t.

Her lips pressed tightly together, her slender frame trembling slightly, and teardrops like pearls off a string kept falling from her reddened eyes.

She didn’t cry out loud, just silently shed tears, as if abandoned by the whole world, or as if she had fallen into a dark, bottomless pit.

Heartbreaking for those who heard, tear-jerking for those who saw.

There were many actors who could act, but few who could truly move the audience.

Her brother felt like his heart would break at the sight of her tearful appearance, wishing he could present the whole world to her just to make her stop crying.

“Good! Good! Good!” Director Xu clapped his hands three times excitedly, patting her head, “Young lady, that was some fine acting! The role is yours!”

Her acting was comparable to that of an award-winning actress!

The girl originally waiting on the side turned pale and then red with her childlike face, looking as if she were a palette of colors, both embarrassed and annoyed.

She had thought the role was in the bag, only for this little rascal to come out of nowhere.

Damn it! Truly infuriating!

“Thank you, Director.” Xia Ningxing dried her tears, stepped out of her acting state, and smiled graciously as she thanked the director.

“Kid, what’s your name, and where are your parents?” Director Xu was now crouching in front of her, his gaze kind and level, a far cry from the coldness and seriousness of moments before.

“My name is Xia Ningxing, and this is my guardian.” Xia Ningxing pulled her brother to her side.

Her brother was already fourteen or fifteen, a bit nervous, but still composed, “Hello Director, you can speak directly to me if there’s anything.”

Children from rural areas mature early, and the mind of a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy is often far beyond that of peers, almost equivalent to an adult’s.

Director Xu nodded and cut straight to the chase, “Let’s discuss the payment for the film. Your sister Xia Ningxing will be playing the childhood role of the female lead, with about a month of scenes. As for the payment, let’s count it by day, twenty yuan a day.”

Although the young girl in front of him was a newcomer, she had a pleasant face and good acting skills, so Director Xu didn’t want to underpay her.

“How… how much?” Upon hearing the sum, her brother’s eyes widened, completely stunned, and he even stammered.

Twenty yuan a day?

Wouldn’t that amount to six hundred yuan for a month?

My God!

That was more than all his family’s income combined for half a year!

“Do you think that’s too little?” Director Xu, seeing him staring and thinking he was dissatisfied with the amount, stroked his chin and offered another figure, “How about thirty? How’s that?”

If it were anyone else bargaining with him, he would have walked away immediately, but Xia Ningxing was different – she was the spitting image of the young female lead he had been imagining!

He had been searching for so long to cast the young female lead, and having finally found someone satisfying, he really didn’t want to miss out.

“!!!”

Thirty yuan a day, nine hundred for a month!

That was equivalent to nine months of his mother’s work in the factory!

Her brother swallowed hard in excitement.
