Chapter 570: Prove to Me Whether You Can Do It

She thought that Ling Tianya wanted her to play nothing more than a supporting character with some scenes. After all, it was a big production feature film, and it would be good to just get a supporting role.

Unexpectedly, Ling Tianya actually wanted her to play the heroine!

This was undoubtedly a huge surprise to Guan Meiyi. She didn’t know how to react for a long time.

Ling Tianya looked at her and said casually, “Go home and study the script carefully, and look for the heart of the character. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.”

Seeing Ling Tianya stand up and get ready to leave, Guan Meiyi shot up. “Tianya, I… Do you think I can do it?”

Ling Tianya looked back at her. “It’s not whether I think you can do it. You have to prove it to me that you can do it. The film and television department of Zhiya Entertainment has told me that I have the priority in cast selections. And my pick is you, so I hope you will not let me down.”

After that, Ling Tianya turned and started to walk away.

“Tianya!” Guan Meiyi called at Ling Tianya again. “About grandma, maybe I can help. I can go to the countryside and persuade her to come out and explain everything.”

“It doesn’t matter, I don’t care.” Ling Tianya smiled calmly. Without much else to say, she left the filming location.

Watching Ling Tianya walk away, Guan Meiyi felt like she was in a dream. She clasped the script in her hand and felt the heavy weight in those thin pages.

The preliminary preparations for “Wonderland” was underway, and the news about Ling Tianya’s priority actor pick got out.

Many actors wanted to get in touch with Ling Tianya, but Ling Tianya had already given the script to Guan Meiyi and naturally would not meet with other actors.

As a result, she used pregnancy as an excuse to decline those requests. Zhang Ke was handling everything while she tried not to make an appearance when possible.

Those people couldn’t meet with Ling Tianya outside, but they did not dare to go to the Ruan residence to find her. With much reluctance, they had to give up this pursuit.

Guan Meiyi was much more low-key than before. After she received the script from Ling Tianya, she talked to no one and secretly studied it in private.

She was self-aware. She knew that although Ling Tianya said that she didn’t play favors, there were plenty of other actors who were better and more experienced than her, yet Ling Tianya still picked her, so, in some way, she was taking care of her. Therefore, before she was one hundred percent confident that she could take on this role, Guan Meiyi would not speak about it publicly. She did not want to cause unnecessary trouble for Ling Tianya. Everything could wait till the audition day.

Ling Tianya tried to avoid people, which lead to more and more public opinions about her on the Internet. Most of them spoke about her guilty conscience, escaping from reality and not facing the public. The more she ignored the rumors, the more severe they became, and some even more ridiculous rumors sprang from them.

At Zhiya Entertainment, the Instagram model Shan Feifei, who had a conflict with Guan Meiyi before, was browsing her phone while murmuring something.

“Feifei, what are you talking about?” Yi Tian smiled and walked over. Ever since the filming of “Hunting Allure” ended, it was in post-production and reviewing, so she had nothing to do.

“I am browsing Weibo, Sister Yi.” Shan Feifei gave up her seat in flattery and sat to the side.

Yi Tian glanced at the Shan Feifei’s phone and saw the name Ling Tianya.

“Are you following Miss Ling too?”

“‘Wonderland’ is going to start casting soon. My agent wants to help me compete for the female lead. She said that Ling Tianya has the priority pick so my agent wants to get in touch with her and put in some good words. However, she was so snobby and won’t show up no matter how many invitations we sent. It’s just a pregnancy, what’s the big deal!”
