Chapter 160 Bringing in Wealth and Treasure, A Match Made in Heaven
Lu Yining rolled her eyes: You, who has never been in a relationship, know everything?
"Who told you I've never been in a relationship?!" The gossip system instantly exploded: "Who...who hasn't checked the past?!"
Do you look down on the system?
What? Can't there be love between systems?
Lu Yining raised an eyebrow: You've talked to her? Is she also a system administrator? A female system administrator? How did you talk? Was it a heart-to-heart conversation? Or what kind of format did you use to talk?
The main problem is that she really can't imagine how Tongzi would date.
From the day she was bound to this system, she never saw its form. It was invisible and intangible, yet it truly existed in her mind.
If it hadn't mentioned it, she wouldn't have known that systems could also fall in love.
┍You're so gossipy...┒The gossip system is a little disgusted.
Lu Yining: Isn't gossip human nature? As a system administrator, aren't you usually quite gossipy yourself? Tell me, tell me...
The gossip-eating system: ┍……┒
┍So…using sound waves to start a romance, let me tell you, Xiaomei's voice is so beautiful! So sweet and gentle! I absolutely adore it! Every time I hear her speak, it's a real treat. ┒
Lu Yining nodded thoughtfully: So you're a voice enthusiast.
The gossip-eating system hummed in agreement: "You too, didn't you always praise Ji Shiyan's voice?"
Lu Yining proudly raised her chin: That's different. Besides praising his nice voice, I also praised his good figure and handsomeness. I looked at all aspects.
The gossip-eating system rolled its eyes speechlessly: ┍Yes, yes, you're amazing, you're the best...┒
Lu Yining nodded emphatically: Absolutely!
Her gaze returned to her phone, and she reread the message Ji Shiyan had sent her before starting to type on the keyboard.
Lu Yining: My family's name is Zhaocai (meaning "bringing wealth").
Lu Yining: Hmm... I think names like Fugui (富贵), Cai Piao (彩票), Jin Tiao (金条), Bai Wan (百万), and Jin Bao (进宝) are all pretty good. You can choose from them.
Perhaps because Ji Shiyan had been looking at his phone the whole time, he sent another message almost immediately after she replied to those two sentences.
Ji Shiyan: Then let's go with Jinbao. I think Jinbao is pretty good.
A man grinned lewdly as he rubbed the blue and white cat's body, causing the cat to meow incessantly. This man was terrifying; I had to get out of here!
Just as the blue and white cat was about to run away, a hand pressed down on it in time. Then, a deep voice rang out in the room, making a decisive statement: "From now on, your name will be Jinbao. It means bringing wealth and prosperity, a match made in heaven."
After saying that, he called the blue and white cat its new name a few more times: "Jinbao, Jinbao, Jinbao~"
If Jinbao could speak right now, it would definitely complain: I'm not a dog, but you really are a dog...
Thus, Jinbao's name was decided so perfunctorily.
……
In the first week after Huang Qingyu was discharged from the hospital, the director announced the cast list of "Treading Through the Stars and Moon" on his Weibo account.
Many people were outraged after reading the announcement.
— Seriously? Seriously? They're casting Huang Qingyu as the female lead? Is Director Liu really out of his mind? Has his brain been crushed? How long has it been since Huang Qingyu acted? Even if she's making a comeback, shouldn't she start with supporting roles and gradually regain her acting skills? Giving her the lead role right off the bat? Can she even act well?
—Is Director Liu the kind of person who would use any means necessary to generate buzz? Could it be that he saw Huang Qingyu's recent popularity and wanted to attract attention, so he cast her as the female lead in the TV series? If that's the case, then I think he's being incredibly irresponsible—irresponsible to the TV series and to the audience.
— Probably not? I think Director Liu is a pretty good person. He doesn't seem like the kind of person who would just randomly put someone in the lead role for the sake of popularity. It's probably because Huang Qingyu hasn't lost her skills that Director Liu let her play the lead role in "Treading Through the Stars and Moon".
—Nothing I'll ever say… Damn it, Lu Yining is playing the second female lead! Doesn't everyone know what Lu Yining's background is? Does she even have acting skills? I think it's already a huge favor to even let her get a bit part in the production, and yet Director Liu actually cast her as the second female lead… If Director Liu really isn't doing this for publicity, then I can only say that he's truly blind…
—What's wrong with Lu Yining? She's perfectly fine! If you don't like watching, then don't watch. Stop spouting your stinking mouth all day long! Her beauty isn't something someone like you can appreciate!
The post was filled with all sorts of comments, some supportive, some critical, and some angry, but Director Liu paid no attention to any of them. The only thing that can silence the criticism is talent, and only a good film.
If the ratings for "Treading Through the Stars and Moon" are high enough, will these haters still be able to keep criticizing?
Of course, there will be haters who will criticize the TV series, but as long as there are enough people who love "Treading Through the Stars and Moon", those are not a threat.
The day after Director Liu issued this announcement, a news item suddenly jumped to the top of the trending topics list and remained there.
The trending topic was a video that was over a minute long.
Lu Yining happened to be browsing Weibo. After glancing at the comments below the trending topic, she immediately went back to the top, opened the video, and watched it frame by frame.
In the video, Fang Yuan looked sorrowful, with red eyes. She said, "I don't know why. I was originally supposed to play the second female lead. Our studio had even made preparations. I never expected it to turn out like this."
“When I was reading the script, I really liked the character Shen Zhuxin. I had even discussed it with Director Liu. I never expected it to turn out like this. Maybe God didn’t favor me and thought I wasn’t qualified to play the role.”
"Let's not talk about Director Liu. Director Liu has always been fair and just. Since he made this decision, it proves that he must have thought about it carefully and felt that Lu Yining was more suitable to play the role of Shen Zhuxin than me. That's why he made Lu Yining the second female lead in 'Treading Through the Stars and Moon'."
"Perhaps Lu Yining is indeed better than me in terms of acting skills, otherwise, could Director Liu be after Lu Yining's beauty?"
"No matter what, I respect any choice Director Liu makes. I do feel very sorry that I can't play the role of Shen Zhuxin this time, but the road ahead is long, and I will find a more suitable role for myself in the future."
His words were a mix of overt and covert sarcasm; anyone who didn't know better would think Director Liu had done something to her...
And most importantly!
