Chapter 1685: Marry Me, Please? (Part Fifteen)

Perhaps the saddest feeling in the world was knowing that you lost something the second you realized its existence.

Mo Fei kneeled in front of the Buddha statue and continued letting her mind wander.

The hands that she placed on her knees tightened, while her body started to tremble involuntarily.

As time pa.s.sed, Qian Yikun’s wedding date was slowly approaching.

Gu Juexi had finally decided on the female lead for his new movie, but this female lead’s ident.i.ty shocked everyone.

It was Xin Ya.

Gu Juexi had chosen Xin Ya, a young servant who knew nothing about acting.

Therefore, when Xin Ya stood in Gu Juexi’s office, she was still in a daze. She was just a little servant.

It was not just Xin Ya. Everyone was confused. Not only was Xin Ya lacking in professional training, but she had never even filmed a video, much less a television show.

Hence, everyone was waiting for Gu Juexi to speak.

Ye Yuwei, on the other hand, knew that Gu Juexi had taken a liking to Xin Ya’s eyes. Ye Yuwei had said that Xin Ya’s eyes were very pure. Even Ye Yuwei lost that kind of purity in her eyes, but Xin Ya still had them.

Ding Junqi leaned back in his chair and looked at the girl standing beside Gu Juexi with her head lowered. “Mr. Gu, are you really not joking?”

Naturally, it was no joke for Gu Juexi. As the screenwriter, Nalan Chunbo did not object. On the other hand, Wen Shan circled Xin Ya a few times, but she could not see any resemblance between this girl and Le Tian.

“Papa Nalan, do you agree that she’s the most suitable choice too?” Wen Shan returned to Nalan Chunbo’s side after finis.h.i.+ng her rounds.

Nalan Chunbo reached out and petted her head. “I think she’s quite suitable.”

“…” Wen Shan did not know what else to say.

“Wen Tao, gather a group of people to teach Xin Ya. I need her to be able to join the cast in a month.” It was obvious that Gu Juexi had brought her here to introduce her to everyone, therefore he had no intention of explaining himself to them.

“Young Master, I—” Xin Ya trembled in fear. She was just a servant; she was not celebrity material. However, when Gu Juexi threw her a glance, Xin Ya did not dare to speak anymore.

Wen Tao nodded, indicating that he understood. He then looked at Xin Ya. This little girl was really lucky.

Ding Junqi’s manager could not help but say, “We naturally don’t dare to comment on the person Mr. Gu chooses, but our Junqi…”

Gu Juexi lifted his head and shot him a glance.

The manager immediately shut up because he knew that if he continued talking, the person who would be replaced would not be the little girl who knew nothing —it would be Ding Junqi.

Gu Juexi was always so unruly.

Obviously, Ding Junqi would not give up this opportunity to work with Gu Juexi.

Xiao Yaojing and Ye Yuwei sat on the sofa not far away and did not attempt to approach this group of people.

“What does your man mean?” Xiao Yaojing was half lying on the sofa. Her tummy, which was close to four months old, was protruding, and the two babies contained within were growing faster.

“Xin Ya’s eyes are very pure. Gu Juexi probably wants to bring forth some sort of effect. The concept of parallel s.p.a.ces is special, after all. If the female lead is someone from the industry, it will be hard for her to surprise the audience. If they get someone in the industry, the parallel s.p.a.ce will be the only highlight in the movie. However, if the female lead can also be a highlight, the movie will be more likely to be successful with two highlights.” Ye Yuwei knew Gu Juexi well, so she could guess what he was thinking.

Xiao Yaojing ma.s.saged her belly and said, “I thought Gu Juexi would cast Le Tian. Isn’t that more of a gimmick? Le Tian is the mother of Ding Junqi’s child, and this movie was adapted for them too.”
