Chapter 20: This pitiful acting deserves an award

Chapter 20: This pitiful acting deserves an award

The sunlight outside the window was mildly scorching. In the living room of Cloud Jing No. 1, a recently popular talk show was playing on the television.

Ning Qing was staring at the screen, her eyes slightly downturned at the corners with long and thick eyelashes that could not hide the chill within.

On the screen, a woman was sobbing and stuttering, struggling for breath, but it did not affect her beauty in the slightest.

"Many people on the internet criticize my character, saying she is a green tea, and even sending me hate messages telling me to die…"

She bit her pink lips, her tears glistening as they streamed down her cheeks. She cried like a pear blossom in the rain, making people feel sorry for her.

"I really don't know what to say. This is just a character I played, and she is not so bad that she cannot be forgiven. I don't know why they have so much malice towards me."

Her co-stars were all at a loss, clearly not knowing what to do.

The host was flustered, handing her a tissue to console her.

The scene was very awkward for a while.

Watching that familiar face, Ning Qing couldn't help but sneer.

The person was none other than Bai Yangyang.

The reason why she was crying was because she played the third female lead in a costume martial arts drama, as the male protagonist's junior sister. Because her character had cruel means, was scheming, jealous, and even threatened and framed the female lead, causing her to miscarry. After the drama was aired, she received widespread criticism and abuse from netizens.

Just now, when the host asked her, "Have you been influenced by this character personally?" she changed from her previous composed self and cried as if she had suffered a great injustice.

If it was because she couldn't stand the insults and criticisms that were related to her character, Ning Qing could understand.

But it was ridiculous that just a moment ago, she seriously said, "She will harm the female lead because she loves the male lead too much," and then suddenly changed her attitude, making it inevitable for people to think that she was acting.

Moreover, just a few days ago, she had acted arrogantly as a third party in front of Ning Qing, the original wife, showing off her power and feeling very proud.

Ning Qing's lips curled into a sarcastic smile.

This pitiful acting deserves an award, even her makeup is ruined from crying.

The woman barely stopped crying, and the host said, "Bai Yangyang was able to make people hate the character of the little junior sister, which proves that her acting skills are excellent."

This praise was not actually flattering, but Bai Yangyang just smirked, neither laughing nor crying.

The female host then took over.

"Yangyang's acting skills have improved rapidly compared to the past two years, and her career has taken a step up, and her love life has also been smooth sailing, right, Yangyang?" 

The suggestive words made everyone present aware of who she was referring to, including Ning Qing who was watching from the television.

There was a hint of surprise that flashed across Bai Yangyang's tear-stained face. This issue was not mentioned during the rehearsal.

"Yangyang?" 

The woman quickly adjusted her state, her smile shy, but unable to conceal her happiness. "It's not too bad, everything is going smoothly."

This ambiguous answer was equivalent to a confirmation.

There was a burst of cheering on the scene.

This was the first time that Bai Yangyang had publicly acknowledged this issue after the rumors, indicating how impactful it was. 

And she dared to behave like this, no doubt she had received someone's permission.

With a snap, the television went off.

Ning Qing threw the remote aside, her face without makeup didn't look too good, even a little nauseous.

She felt a bit down and tugged at her chest, preparing to go upstairs.

It was at this moment that Lu Zhe entered the living room and called out to her, "Madam."

Ning Qing looked down and saw the gift box in his hand.

Her eyebrows furrowed, she asked, "What is it?"

Lu Zhe's face was expressionless, "There is a company banquet at 7 o'clock tonight, the young master asked you to prepare in advance."
