Chapter 122: You’re Also a Fan of Fearless?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Ever since An Nuo was injured, Nan Qiao stopped going out. After she had dinner with Murong Zheng that day, she had not seen him around.

According to Uncle Yang, he had most likely gone back to the hospital for research.

Nan Qiao too has been very busy recently. Every day, she would talk to the editor of Fearless at home.

Following the news that “Fearless” was going to be adapted into a film, many people began to prepare for the role auditions.

Meanwhile, Nan Qiao communicated with the story editor and changed some of the plot, as well as confirmed the roles with Director Liu Cheng.

“Other than the male lead, it’s up to you.”

Nan Qiao sat on the sofa and made a call, talking to someone from time to time.

Other than her initial request for Xian Yu to take up the male lead role, Nan Qiao was very easy to talk to. This made Liu Cheng more or less relieved.

The two of them communicated very smoothly. Liu Cheng also told her the exact time of the auditions and sent a sincere invitation to Nan Qiao, asking if she wanted to come over and take a look personally.

No one could understand the characters better than the author.

“I don’t think there is a need. I trust your judgment.”

However, Nan Qiao rejected this invitation. She had already achieved her goal.

A strange sound suddenly came from the door. Nan Qiao politely hung up the phone and looked in the direction of the door.

It was the afternoon now. Big Brother was probably still busy at the company. As for Murong Zheng, he would never come home so early.

‘Who is it?’

Nan Qiao had a question in her heart, but it was soon resolved by a flash of bright silver.

“I’m back!”

The moment Xian Yu saw Nan Qiao, he got up and pounced on the pillow beside her. He seemed to be in a good condition.

“Fifth Brother? Are you done with your work?”

Nan Qiao was a little surprised when she saw the other party come back. In the past two days, Xian Yu’s conversation time with her had always been especially strange. There was even one time when he replied to her in the wee hours of the morning.

Xian Yu ran his fingers through his messy hair and revealed a happy smile.

“The sooner I finish work, the sooner I can relax.”

His tone rose, as if he had encountered something happy.

However, the bruises under his eyes still showed how tired he was during this period of time. Even though Xian Yu’s smile was relaxed, it could not hide the fatigue on his body.

Xian Yu came back not only to see Nan Qiao, but also to partic.i.p.ate in the audition for “Fearless”.

His fatigue was due to the fact that he had rushed and finished reading the novel last night. At that time, Xian Yu felt that his entire spirit was complete after reading the finale.

It made him energetic in the middle of the night. After tossing and turning for half the night, he still couldn’t sleep, so he started checking his schedule to wear down his energy.

Initially, he did not intend to read the script that was placed on the table by his manager. But when he caught a glimpse of the script and realized it was for “Fearless”, he immediately picked it up.

Only then did Xian Yu know that he had gotten the chance to audition for the male lead. Hence, he excitedly finished his work and returned as quickly as possible.

“Speaking of which, what about the vet?”

He belatedly glanced at the living room, but he could not find Murong Zheng.

“Second Young Master is still in the hospital.”

Uncle Yang brought over two desserts at the right time and placed them on the coffee table in front of him.

Xian Yu pursed his lips and thought, “It’s good that I didn’t see that beast.”.

“I heard that Fearless is going to film soon. Fifth Brother, do you know?”

Coincidentally, the male lead was right in front of her. Nan Qiao was also very curious about Xian Yu’s thoughts on this drama and casually mentioned it.

At the mention of this, Xian Yu became energetic.

“I came back to audition for Fearless.

Are you also a fan of Moon G.o.ddess?”

Xian Yu could be said to be a loyal fan of Moon G.o.ddess now as he couldn’t stop talking about Fearless.

Nan Qiao nodded and smiled without saying anything. She looked at her Fifth Brother’s excited expression and couldn’t help but have a bad taste in her heart.

Looking at Fifth Brother’s appearance, she could tell he’s a fanatical fan of Moon G.o.ddess. If he found out Moon G.o.ddess’s ident.i.ty…

Soon, it was time for the audition.

Xu Qinsang held the script in his hand and looked at the people around him.

Needless to say, those who could attend the audition had all been screened. However, there were a few capable actors among them that made Xu Qinsang feel a little unstable.

Most importantly—Xian Yu also partic.i.p.ated in this audition.

Looking at the eye-catching silver hair not far away, it was difficult not to notice him.

“Go and perform well this time. I’ll handle the production team. As long as nothing goes wrong, the male lead role will most likely be yours.”

Thinking about what his manager, Sister w.a.n.g, had said, Xu Qinsang’s slightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed.

He still believed Sis w.a.n.g’s words. Besides, Xian Yu’s forte was singing, right? What Director Liu needed this time was acting skills. He didn’t believe that he couldn’t beat Xian Yu.

Everyone only had ten minutes on stage, and the audition ended very quickly.

Although Xian Yu was excited, his performance was still as focused as ever.

Director Liu Cheng looked at the name list in his hand and was especially impressed by Xian Yu’s performance. He originally thought that this predetermined male lead might cause a problem, but the feeling Xian Yu gave him during the audition made him completely dispel this thought.

‘No one was more suitable for this role than Xian Yu.’

These words appeared in Liu Cheng’s mind. At the same time, he understood why Moon G.o.ddess wanted Xian Yu.

“It’s decided.”

After the afternoon audition ended, almost two to three hours later, Fearless officially announced the final candidate for the role.

When they saw Xian Yu as the male lead, the comments exploded. There were all sorts of comments.

Especially Xu Qinsang. After knowing that he was not the male lead, he could not accept this fact.

He looked at the two words “Xian Yu” on the male lead’s page and immediately contacted a person on WeChat. He then transferred a large sum of money to that person.

[Who’s the target this time?]

[Xian Yu.]

Xu Qinsang typed this name with a cold expression. His expressionless face did not show any heartache for money, as if he had done this many times.

[Roger.]

Under the official Weibo, there were suddenly a lot of curses directed at Xian Yu.

“I knew it. My Big Brother is indeed suitable for this role!”

“Xian Yu is the male lead? To think I still believed in Director Liu’s capabilities. In the end, he chose a singer instead. Now I’m an anti-fan. Goodbye.”

“Although I like Xian Yu a lot too, to let him act…”

“The moment I saw the male lead’s name, I blacklisted the show.”

“Change the male lead! Change the male lead!”

Xian Yu’s fans were overjoyed, but many people in the comments were still opposing the decision. Soon, hate comments were trending.

Xian Yu’s management quickly found out about this and hurriedly contacted someone to deal with it urgently. He also temporarily closed the Weibo comments.

Xian Yu had also heard a little about it. He took out his phone and casually searched for articles on Weibo about opposing him to be the male lead for Fearless. There were even a few marketing accounts who used this matter as a topic to distort the truth and attract people’s attention.

The negative comments about him reached a peak for a moment, making it difficult for people not to guess that someone was behind this.

Xu Qinsang looked at the large number of curses under the comments and the anger in his heart subsided a little.

However, this was not enough. It was far from enough.

He should be the male lead of Fearless.. Who did Xian Yu think he was?
