Chapter 125: Joining the Film Crew

Seeing Ji Xiaoli throwing herself into his arms voluntarily, Zheng Nanfeng looked rather arrogant. "Don't think I'll forgive you just like this."

Ji Xiaoli continued to act coquettishly. "I was wrong. Please forgive me this time, okay?"

Looking at the pleading in Ji Xiaoli's big watery eyes, Zheng Nanfeng immediately softened his heart.

"Will you dare to do it again next time?"

Hearing this, Ji Xiaoli immediately raised four fingers. "I swear, there will never be a next time!"

Zheng Nanfeng was amused by Ji Xiaoli's appearance and immediately forgot all about what had happened just now.

After successfully soothing Zheng Nanfeng, Ji Xiaoli called her agent and asked the agent to accept this role.

Upon learning this, the agent immediately informed the film crew of the result. The film crew also expressed their satisfaction, and the two sides successfully reached a consensus.

After negotiating the contract details with the film crew, the agent sent the schedule, precautions, and the script to Ji Xiaoli's email all at once, and told Ji Xiaoli to perform well this time.

After Ji Xiaoli agreed, she opened the webpage to search for relevant information about the film crew to see the current situation of this drama.

Generally speaking, this drama was made with great care, which could be seen from the lineup of the performing artists.

Seeing that those artists were either acting veterans or top - tier popular young actors, Ji Xiaoli began to look forward to it.

The film crew probably thought that the popularity of the leading actress was still high, so they wanted to ride on this wave of popularity.

As soon as Ji Xiaoli agreed to the script, the film crew immediately issued an announcement.

This move successfully boosted the popularity of the film crew, and Ji Xiaoli also ranked first on the hot search list because of this drama.

Ji Xiaoli was actually not very happy when she saw the announcement. The film crew was being too obvious in riding on her popularity!

Ji Xiaoli pulled Zheng Nanfeng's hand and acted coquettishly. "I feel like I've been used. I'm not happy!"

However, Zheng Nanfeng had a different opinion.

Tapping Ji Xiaoli on the forehead, Zheng Nanfeng then said slowly, "You're so popular. It would be a waste not to use it. If this drama becomes a hit, it won't do you any harm. What's there for you to be unhappy about?"

After thinking about it, Zheng Nanfeng was right. If it were herself, she would probably do the same thing.

Moreover, she had indeed attracted a lot of popularity because of this drama. It was actually a win - win situation.

Despite this, Ji Xiaoli still felt uncomfortable, but she didn't say anything more.

Some anti - fans took this opportunity to jump out and make trouble.

Anti - fan A: Tsk, does Ji Xiaoli only have good luck as her selling point? She became popular because of it, and now she gets this script because of it too. Isn't she afraid that the audience will get tired of seeing her?

Anti - fan B: It goes without saying. Good luck is the only thing Ji Xiaoli can rely on. Otherwise, how could she have come this far?

...

Some fans couldn't stand it and came out to fight back one after another.

Fan A: Have you no shame? You can even pick on this. If you're really that idle, why don't you go and study hard? What's the point of making a fuss here?

Fan B: I agree with the above. Besides, who says our Xiaoli only has good luck? Her net worth is more than ten times yours!

Fan C: Exactly. Come out and make a fuss after your net worth surpasses our Xiaoli's. Don't you feel ashamed to make a fuss here when your net worth is nothing?

...

After reading these comments online, Ji Xiaoli felt mixed emotions.

Sure enough, if you don't have any good works, you'll be criticized. Fortunately, she had taken on this role.

Reading the supportive comments from her fans again, Ji Xiaoli felt a warm current in her heart.

I will definitely act this role well and will never let you down!

After getting motivated, Ji Xiaoli put down her phone and concentrated on studying the script given by the film crew to prepare for joining the crew.

Seeing Ji Xiaoli working so attentively, Zheng Nanfeng didn't want to disturb her. He could only silently prepare Ji Xiaoli's luggage for joining the crew.

Before long, it was time for Ji Xiaoli to join the crew.

Zheng Nanfeng said goodbye to Ji Xiaoli at the door. "Xiaoli, I believe you can do it. Don't be nervous."

Ji Xiaoli nodded. She wasn't really worried about messing up the performance, because this role was so much like herself that she could just act naturally.

After saying goodbye to Zheng Nanfeng, Ji Xiaoli didn't ask Zheng Nanfeng to see her off. She went to the film crew by herself.

After Ji Xiaoli left, Zheng Nanfeng turned around and went back to tidy up. He seemed to be going out for something important.

At the film crew, after Ji Xiaoli had sorted out her luggage, she took a stroll around the crew to familiarize herself with the place where she was going to live for a month.

From afar, Ji Xiaoli seemed to see Zheng Nanfeng's figure. After rubbing her eyes and looking closely, it was really Zheng Nanfeng.

Zheng Nanfeng? Why is he here? Shouldn't he be at home?

Ji Xiaoli walked over. As soon as she got closer, she heard their conversation.

The director said flatteringly, "I didn't expect Mr. Zheng to come in person. It really adds luster to our humble place."

Zheng Nanfeng nodded. "I just happened to be free, so I came to have a look. Is there anything lacking in the crew?"

Hearing this, the director laughed heartily. "Mr. Zheng is so generous. There's nothing lacking in the crew. It's a blessing for our crew to get your investment."

Hearing the director's flattery, Zheng Nanfeng wasn't really interested. He kept looking around every corner of the crew, as if he was looking for someone.

Only then did Ji Xiaoli realize that Zheng Nanfeng was the investor of this drama.

Recalling that Zheng Nanfeng changed his attitude after making a phone call, Ji Xiaoli suddenly understood the reason.

Looking at Zheng Nanfeng's appearance, Ji Xiaoli knew that he was looking for her. So she simply stepped forward to say hello.

"Nanfeng, are you looking for me?"

Seeing Ji Xiaoli, Zheng Nanfeng's eyes lit up. "Xiaoli, long time no see!"

Ji Xiaoli had a black line across her face. What long time no see? They had just separated in the morning!

The director beside them saw Ji Xiaoli and immediately understood why Zheng Nanfeng had come to the crew in person.

He thought to himself, why would a company boss like Zheng Nanfeng come to the crew for an inspection in person? It turned out that his real intention was something else!

Feeling the director's inquisitive look, Ji Xiaoli blushed shyly.

Not daring to look at the director, Ji Xiaoli tried to find something to say and asked Zheng Nanfeng, "Don't you need to take care of your company's affairs? How come you're so free to come to the crew in person?"

Zheng Nanfeng replied rather irritably, "I just came to have a look. I'll go back later."

Knowing that Zheng Nanfeng must have put aside his company's affairs just to come and see her, Ji Xiaoli was quite touched.

"You'd better go back quickly! You can come after you've taken care of your company's affairs."

In the end, Zheng Nanfeng couldn't resist Ji Xiaoli and left the crew to go back to the company.

After Zheng Nanfeng left, Ji Xiaoli heaved a sigh of relief. She didn't want others to say that she had joined the crew because of Zheng Nanfeng.
