Chapter 16: Chapter 16 Kneel! _1
He hesitated for a moment, afraid that Ming Ge wouldn't agree, after all, he wasn't very familiar with the world of the Sugar Daddy.
"Miss Ming Ge, don't look down on 'The Empress is on Top' just because it's a web series. It might not seem as prestigious as TV dramas and movies in the eyes of the public, but as long as it's well-made, we will be the first ones to break into the web series market. Why not consider it..."
"There's no need to consider."
"Miss Ming Ge..."
Ming Ge curled her lips, smiled, and asked, "Director Han, do you still remember the first sentence I said?"
Hello, I'm here to audition for 'The Empress is on Top'.
Recalling this, Han Sen had a flash of inspiration, "Could it be that..."
"Exactly." Ming Ge's demeanor suddenly changed, her delicate and vibrant eyes exuding a bewitching charm. She pivoted on her high heels, advancing step by step, grasped the young handsome man's wrist, and half-embraced him, leaning down slowly, her gaze affectionate as she said, "My little beauty, since you extend such a gracious invitation, how could I possibly refuse?"
Han Sen's knees went weak.
His little heart thumped wildly.
What the, what the... damn!
He knelt before the Sugar Daddy!
A moment later, Ming Ge stood up slightly, releasing Han Sen who had been half embraced and leaning back in her arms, "Hey, snap out of it."
Flirt and then throw away, cruel as a hook-up.
Han Sen's cheeks were flushed and his eyes shone brightly like fireworks, "Was that... Zhuang Jiang's line just now?!"
Maintaining her noble and cool expression, Ming Ge replied, "Mhm."
But inwardly, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Acting had been a thing of her past life.
In her previous life, her acting was criticized; her excessively glamorous face branded her a beautiful but talentless vase.
A young girl in her twenties, easily dazzled by the glitz of the entertainment industry, didn't put her mind to honing her acting skills. Confident in her beauty, she felt she could dominate the entertainment world with just her face, acting arrogantly.
Recalling her former life, even Ming Ge found it cringe-worthy.
By the time she finally decided to seriously work on her acting, her face was ruined by someone.
Fallen from grace, she lived in a basement, relying on an old television set to watch and imitate the myriad of life's expressions from classic dramas and films.
Late on, she slowly developed her own acting style.
However, she had never revealed it in front of anyone.
This was the first time.
Ming Ge's beautiful eyes glistened, and she smiled, her lips blossoming like flowers.
As the first hit web series of her former life, Ming Ge naturally studied 'The Empress is on Top'.
The most outstanding character was the female protagonist Zhuang Jiang; whether it was her appearance, eyes, behavior, or her attack and charm, Ming Ge had her insights, and performing it came effortlessly.
She had succeeded.
-
The female lead was set, the starting funds were in place, and now all that was left was to start shooting.
Han Sen beamed as he went to reorganize the crew.
After Ming Ge left, her stunningly beautiful face fell.
She rubbed her forehead.
Worries, worries.
Where to find the remaining five million?
Ming Ge, the fake Sugar Daddy, felt her headache intensify when suddenly her eyes lit up.
She had an idea!
Time to find a real Sugar Daddy.
And take the opportunity to enjoy the spectacle of the white lotus mother and daughter.
Ming Ge immediately hailed a taxi and went home.
An hour later.
An ancient and elegant Chinese-style villa appeared before her, with a sandalwood-colored fence outside, and the garden was planted with flowers she liked.
Ming Ge paid the taxi fare and approached, her eyes brimming with a hint of red as she looked at the familiar building.
...Long time no see.
Then, she lifted her lips with a smile and knocked on the villa's grand door.
The door was opened by Nanny Rong, who had served the Ming Family for many years. She was so surprised to see her that she exclaimed, "Miss?"
Ming Ge nodded, her smile blossoming like a radiant rose, "Nanny Rong!"
At that moment, the voices of the white lotus mother and daughter could be heard from inside the villa, "...Daddy, you must help me clarify this. How could I possibly sell myself for a minor role of the third female lead!"
