The Unexpected Rise Before My Exit from the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 122

"Before assigning roles, in order to help everyone better understand this song, I will explain it to everyone as a whole without any distinction. Once the roles are determined, we can divide the parts."

The awkwardness didn't last long as Chen Chen's words once again captured everyone's attention.

Qin Wei secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but she didn't feel any sense of relaxation in her heart.

She finished her classes in a daze and absentmindedly endured until noon.

When the clock hands pointed to twelve, Sun Tiantian nudged Qin Wei's shoulder with her elbow and whispered,

"Where did the professionalism of a foodie go?"

Qin Wei turned her head, looking puzzled.

"Tsk."

Because they were already familiar with each other, Sun Tiantian didn't feel as restrained in front of her and spoke more casually,

"Do I still need to remind you? It's noon, foodie, let's go!"

Only then did Qin Wei snap out of her thoughts. Usually, she was the most enthusiastic about meals, but today she didn't have that mood.

However, she didn't want Sun Tiantian to notice anything unusual, so she nodded and got up to go to the restaurant.

Li Siyi leaned over and asked Sun Tiantian,

"Where did she go?"

"She went to eat."

Sun Tiantian looked at Qin Wei's departing figure.

"I've never seen a female celebrity take eating so seriously."

...

Acting... Do I even have any acting skills?

But how could I say the words "I can't act"?

Saying it would sound like an excuse, especially since Chen Chen was still counting on her to guide the other members of the group!

Qin Wei was burdened with worries, and she ate her meal absentmindedly, feeling a poor appetite as if everything she ate tasted like grass.

"Oh, finally showing some spirit?"

A voice interrupted her thoughts. She looked up and saw Qiao Sixiao.

She had just returned and happened to catch lunchtime.

"Hmm?"

Qin Wei couldn't make sense of what she was saying for a moment.

Qiao Sixiao pointed at the bowl in front of her.

A bowl of salad without any toppings.

What kind of salad did she order?!!

Regarding the scenes where Qin Wei and Qiao Sixiao appeared together, the production team would definitely broadcast them without reservation. After all, it was a highly anticipated segment, and after it aired, enthusiastic netizens began helping Qin Wei search for memories—

"Oh no, it seems like Lü'e can't believe she's eating salad. She's dumbfounded."

"In this episode, Foodie is out of it. When asked what she wants to eat, she said 'anything,' and the kitchen made her a salad."

"Is the chef also a fan of the Wei-Xiao CP? This salad is totally Qiao Sixiao's style."

"Qin Jie is not doing well. Why is she so absent-minded?"

...

Qin Wei took a few more bites, pretending everything was normal.

"It's necessary to show the disciplined side of a female celebrity occasionally. I'm going to learn classical dance, so I need to lose weight to look better."

"You stubborn person."

Qiao Sixiao sat down and poured a small plate of shrimp into her salad, then drizzled a spoonful of rice vinegar.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Will a few more shrimp make you fat? It won't affect your weight loss! Don't faint from low blood sugar again when I'm not around to give you a ride."

Qin Wei glared at her.

"Which ride are you talking about?"

Qiao Sixiao stared back unapologetically.

"The final ride."

"Heh."

Qin Wei gritted her teeth, giving Qiao Sixiao a fierce look,

"I'm telling you it's impossible. I'm perfectly fine, and when the time comes, I'll be the one seeing you off."

Qiao Sixiao smiled and replied while eating, "As long as you have this filial piety, I haven't raised you in vain."

Qin Wei: ..."

Instead of arguing, it's better to focus on eating.

They ate quietly...

Qiao Sixiao tilted her head and looked at Qin Wei. "What's wrong? You don't seem to have much appetite today. Did something trouble you... Did someone bully you? Just give them a piece of your mind! I won't stop you if you want to fight back..."

"No."

Qin Wei looked up at her and suddenly remembered that the person sitting in front of her was an actress, and a Bodhisattva who saved all living beings.

Under her benevolent light, she had already overcome many hardships.

Why not take another chance?

"Qiao Sixiao."

Qin Wei lowered her voice and mysteriously said to her, "Why don't you come and give us some guidance on the dance?"

Qiao Sixiao seemed a little surprised. "Me?"

Qin Wei nodded repeatedly.

"You're being too optimistic."

Qiao Sixiao firmly refused, but then she looked at Qin Wei with a meaningful expression.

"But you can beg me to give it a try."

Qin Wei gave her a disdainful look and quickly finished eating before returning to the practice room.

During the lunch break, she repeatedly reviewed the movements and lyrics. She had memorized them quite well, but when she thought about the overall adaptation, she became anxious again.

After the members of Class D returned one by one from their break, they started practicing the basic movements of the dance under the guidance of Matsuno.

By the evening, everyone had practiced the movements quite well. After all, they were from Class D and had previous dance experience. This time, they learned much faster than the previous one.

Matsuno stopped and said to everyone, "Alright, you all have gotten the hang of it. Now, take some time to understand the lyrics and divide the lines. By the way, let's also decide on the roles."

Sun Tiantian scribbled on the lyrics and then walked over to Qin Wei. "Weiwei, I think from the line 'Drinking a cup of wine by the river, watching the setting sun sink,' it can mark the turning point in the protagonist's life. What do you think?"

Qin Wei pointed at the following lines. "But the dance corresponding to the later lines seems more suitable for the character's new appearance. I'm a bit hesitant about this..."

It was indeed difficult to make a choice...

Li Siyi happened to come over for a break and saw the two of them looking perplexed. After understanding the reason, she said, "Maybe because I come from a dance background, I tend to lean towards using the later two lines as the division. But Tiantian is also right. From the lyrics, these two lines signify the protagonist taking off her red makeup and putting on armor."

Since this song was inspired by the poem "Mulan," when they were dividing the lines, they also considered Mulan's image.

Li Siyi patted Qin Wei's shoulder. "Chen Chen said she'll come later, and Matsuno will join us too. It's a good opportunity to ask for their opinions. While we have time, let's go through the movements again. No matter how we interpret it, we need to master the basic movements."

...

After practicing for another half an hour, Matsuno came in first, humming a song and seeming to have encountered something good.

"Matsuno-sensei!"

Qin Wei waved at her and then walked over with the lyrics.

"We currently have two different opinions on word segmentation among the ten of us. Can you help us determine which approach is better?"

Song Ye took the paper with lyrics, which was filled with many notes written by Qin Wei. The areas where word segmentation was uncertain were also marked, including the reasons for the uncertainty.

"You're quite diligent!"

Song Ye praised her, and then said,

"But let me tell you some good news. Chen Chen, our teacher, has brought in a savior for us, a genius who can guide us in various aspects."

As he spoke, Chen Chen entered the room, accompanied by a man who seemed to be in a jovial conversation with him.

"Shen Kai?"

"Shen Kai?"

...

Chen Chen gathered everyone together and introduced:

"Shen Kai should be familiar to all of you. He is a famous film actor, and I specifically invited him to come and provide guidance for our performance.

Akai and my husband are good friends, and he is a very kind and respectable person. When he heard that I needed his help, he readily agreed. I would like to express my gratitude to Akai for taking the time to come."

Shen Kai first said to Chen Chen, "You're too kind," and then introduced himself to everyone.

With his handsome appearance and calm personality, Shen Kai was well received by the female artists present, and they all expressed their welcome.

Of course, there was an exception. Qin Wei, standing in the back row, couldn't help but sigh.

She thought she wouldn't see him again. Not long ago, she was full of confidence and confronted him...
