Hear My Heart: My World Falls into the River of Love

Chapter 57

After Jian Yan received the email from Lin Zhen, she opened it to read. It looked like the movie was valued quite highly by the film company. The casting was filled with the current front-line stars.

Jian Yan read through the candidates for the female lead first; Pei Ying and Li Si Si were included in it. When she got to Wen Ke, however, her eyes brightened.

Jian Yan: 「I think Wen Ke looks nice~ My vote goes to her『shy』」

Lin Zhen: 「『sweat』 Is very pretty, but the paycheck is also high」

Jian Yan: 「I'm not the one paying anyway. I think she's good-looking『shy』」

Lin Zhen: 「...」

If Jian Yan wasn't together with Eldest Master He already, she really would have doubted Jian Yan's sexuality.

Lin Zhen: 「Okay, I'll inform the film company, but in the end, they have the final say in the casting.」

Jian Yan: 「『OK』」

《Satisfactory》's screenplay was already written, and the film company was also very efficient in contacting actors and actresses. As for the female lead, after all the parties were consulted, they ultimately chose the person that Jian Yan had settled on—Wen Ke.

"Today, Universe contacted us. They want you to appear as the female lead in 《Satisfactory》. They also sent us the script." Wen Ke's manager pushed the script forward, speaking in a methodical fashion.

"Mn?" Wen Ke asked, "Wasn't this the movie that fans have constantly demanded for Pei Ying? I thought Universe would have chosen her." After all, Song Nan Chuan was a majority shareholder of Universe.

The manager said, "I heard from a friend at Universe that they think Pei Ying's temperament isn't quite suitable for the early stages of Shang Ke."

Wen Ke thought for a moment. She had also read 《Satisfactory》. Early on, the female lead was an unremarkable and even somewhat unsophisticated person. She raised a brow, the corners of her lips rising as she remarked, "Then does that mean the film company thinks my temperament is relatively unsophisticated?"

"Mn...they said your adaptability is very high," the manager calmly stated.

"..." Wen Ke was silent for a moment. "I am relatively fond of Teacher Tang Zhi's work. I'll take a look at the script first."

"Alright. If you have any questions, Zhou jie over there is in charge of discussing the business contract."

"Okay."

Wen Ke accepted the script the same day He Chen finally got discharged from the hospital. Apart from his parents, He Xiu also brought along Jian Yan to pick him up as well. Against expectations, Xu Ying did not come.

"Ying Ying and her mother have a small matter to take care of today, so they couldn't come. She said she would come see you tomorrow," Zhao Ying Fang explained as she supported He Chen.

He Chen scoffed and said, "It makes no difference if she comes."

Zhao Ying Fang heard him say this and frowned. "Chen'er, your words are wrong. While you've been hospitalized, Ying Ying came to see you many times."

He Chen replied, "Mn, indeed. She simply came to watch."

"..." Zhao Ying Fan saw the dissatisfaction he held for Xu Ying in his heart and had no better option but to compromise with him. "You know that Ying Ying has been pampered and spoiled since she was a child. She definitely has a bit of a young lady disposition. The both of you have known each other for so long—it's enough to have some mutual understanding."
