Chapter 166 Tomorrow is another new day
Watching the gradually receding figures of the people outside, Jiang Ning couldn't help but feel a little scared. Fortunately, he was smart just now, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
Jiang Ning walked to the front desk and completed the check-in procedures.
The front desk clerk handed her the room card and even asked her with concern:
"Who is that person outside? Are you being threatened? Do you want me to call the police for you?"
"No, thank you. I'll be on my way first."
While he was moved, Jiang Ning did not let down his guard.
This place is indeed very different from the previous place. Not only is the environment bad, but everything else is not so good.
However, Jiang Ning didn't show it too much and just lay down.
Lying in bed, looking back on what happened in the past few days, it was really bizarre, and it seemed like I hadn't done anything serious for a long time.
There is no such thing as the passion to fight for one's acting career.
The random thoughts in her mind kept her awake.
So she repeatedly hinted to herself in her heart:
"Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. It's useless to think about it. Why don't I take this opportunity to start over? I've made such a decision. I'm going to sleep!"
Tomorrow is another new day!
Jiang Ning turned off his cell phone, tossed and turned for a long time, and finally fell asleep.
The next morning, she was awakened by a knock on the door.
After Jiang Ning opened the door, she found a man standing outside. She saw that it was a stranger and just as she was about to close the door, he blocked her way with his hand.
The man introduced himself:
"Hello, I'm the assistant director of this play. You should have seen the script yesterday. I think you are very suitable for our heroine, so I want to talk to you."
She was a little surprised, but out of defensive instinct, she still did not invite the director into the room.
The two were chatting at the door.
"Really? But I've never played the leading female role in your play before. Where did you see me?" Jiang Ning asked puzzledly.
Moreover, she could also sense something unusual from the other party's reaction, the kind of weirdness that was hard to explain.
"I believe you have the potential." The assistant director said with a smile, "Besides, the heroine of our play needs some special qualities, and I think you just have them."
Jiang Ning was a little excited after hearing this. This had always been her dream, and she didn't expect that she would have the chance to realize it now.
But she still didn't let go of her defensive heart.
"Then what preparations do I need to make?" Jiang Ning asked calmly.
"Well, first of all, you need to familiarize yourself with the script." The assistant director took out the script from his arms and handed it to Jiang Ning. "This is our first draft. You can take a look at it first. If you have any ideas or suggestions, feel free to tell me."
Jiang Ning took the script and felt his heart beating faster for no reason.
So she also said politely:
"Thank you, director. I will definitely prepare well."
"Okay, then I look forward to your wonderful performance." The assistant director left with a smile.
Jiang Ning closed the door and opened the script. It looked quite formal.
She touched her head, feeling as if she had forgotten something, but now she couldn't remember it.
Until his eyes fell on the mobile phone on the bedside table.
"It's broken! The phone is not turned on! I was wondering why it was so quiet this morning."
Jiang Ning ran to the bed and sat down, quickly turning on her cell phone. The scene in front of her stunned her.
There are thousands of unread messages, most of which are sent by the director.
She caught the key information at a glance.
"The assistant director of your other play will come to see you tomorrow, remember to receive him!!!"
It’s over, now that person is really the director, and I didn’t even let him in!
Jiang Ning slumped down on the bed somewhat powerlessly, not knowing how to face the director. His first impression was already bad. He wondered if he would treat him badly in the future.
Thinking about the possibility of this situation, Jiang Ning felt like a deflated balloon.
"Ahhhhhhhh! I'm so convinced!"
Jiang Ning got up from the bed and quickly sent an apology text message to the director, explaining what happened this morning and expressing his hope for a chance to make up for his mistake.
The director quickly responded to her, but said he didn't care and instead appreciated her caution.
After receiving the director's reply, Jiang Ning finally breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time became more determined to seize this opportunity.
She began to study the script carefully and make full preparations for the upcoming meeting.
However, when Jiang Ning immersed herself in the script again, she had completely forgotten the passage of time.
Before she knew it, several hours had passed and she was still concentrating on studying the script, as if she and the script were the only two people in the world.
Suddenly, the doorbell rang again, pulling her back to reality from the world of the script.
Jiang Ning raised his head suddenly and realized that it might be the director.
She quickly gathered herself together, took a deep breath, and opened the door.
Sure enough, the director was standing outside the door with a gentle smile on his face.
Jiang Ning felt awkward for a moment and didn't know what to say.
Instead, the director spoke first to break the silence: "It seems that you are really devoted to it. You even forgot the time."
Jiang Ning smiled sheepishly, "I'm sorry, Director. I was so engrossed in reading the script. Please come in!"
The director walked into the room and sat down to continue discussing the script with Jiang Ning.
The communication between the two was very smooth. Jiang Ning demonstrated her deep understanding and unique insights into the role, and the director became more and more satisfied with her.
As the conversation deepened, Jiang Ning gradually put aside his worries.
She found that the director did not have any prejudice against her because of what happened in the morning. Instead, he spoke highly of her professionalism.
Maybe she was just overthinking it and the other person didn't mean that.
This gave Jiang Ning more confidence, and she secretly told herself that she must seize this opportunity and show the best of herself.
