Chapter 559: What's There to Cry About?

signed tasks.""Are you alright" It was probably the first time in years that she had returned to Qingshan, Cheng Chen's voice held a hint of carefulness."It's fine, I have a lot of work to do, so I p...Lu Yaoyao was always optimistic and confident, even when Yuan Binhuan had mistreated her, she let it go quickly and would never doubt that it was her fault. But even the strongest person will occasionally have a small black hole that they can't get over.

Xu Zhao's influence on her wasn't from a specific, particular event, but rather a gradual and subtle one. The Lu family and the Xu family were of equal standing. The Lu family doted on their children, and so did the Xu family.

So when Lu YaoYao and Xu Zhao argued as children, although the Lu family wasn't happy about it, they couldn't go to their door to argue over a squabble between two little girls. Therefore, Grandpa Lu taught Lu YaoYao how to win an argument by seizing the opponent's weakness and striking decisively, leaving them speechless.

Grandfather Lu did teach him, but Lu Yaoyao's personality wouldn't allow for an argument. When she argued, she got excited, her voice rose, and she became incoherent. On the contrary, Xu Zhao seemed to have inherited Grandfather Lu's true teachings. He spoke little and his voice was soft, but every word was a blow that could make Lu Yaoyao burst into tears.

As soon as she started to cry, Xu Zhao would stop and say, "What's there to cry about You're such a crybaby." Then he would turn and leave.

Treating Lu Yaoyao like a child, even though they are the same age.

Later on, everyone moved out of the courtyard and had their own houses, but they all lived on the same street, still able to see each other frequently. Xu Zhao did well in his studies and got into the best university in the country. With his excellent looks, he was noticed by a famous director right after entering university and starred in his first movie, which made him an instant star.

As for Lu Yaoyao, her academic performance was average. In China, she could only get into an ordinary university at best, so the Lu family simply...

Send her abroad to polish her up.

When she entered the entertainment industry, Xu Zhao was already a top-tier star. She had a mysterious background, superior looks, graduated from a prestigious university, and had a generous and polite personality with countless friends in the industry.

So, Xu Zhao is indeed all-around superior to her.

It doesn't matter if they usually don't cross paths, she can't even remember this person. But whenever they do meet, a black hole appears in her heart. The last time they met was at an awards ceremony last year, both nominated for Best Actress. At the time, Lu YaoYao didn't even want to go because she knew, without thinking, that Xu Zhao would win.

At that time, I was inexplicably swayed by Haojie's words, saying, “When you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you.”

What on earth is this

"You have to face your black hole and then walk through it," Haojie explained.

She went there after a shot of chicken blood, and as expected, just like she predicted, Xu Zhao won the Best Actress award. She was just there to be background, this abyss wasn't crossed.

"If I didn't make it this time, I'll try again next time."

She suddenly remembered last year's award ceremony, Gu Ruantong seemed to be there too But they didn't sit together, and the two of them didn't communicate at all at the time.

She was about to hang up the video call when she suddenly asked, "Do you know Xu Zhao"

Indeed, Gu Ruandong didn't deny it, only saying, "Well, I know him."

This made Lu Yaoyao a little unhappy, and she continued to ask: "Then at last year's awards ceremony, you were there for her"

"It's not for her, we're not familiar."

"Not familiar at all"

"Hmm."

After listening to Gu

When Ruan Dong replied, her mood improved slightly.

"Yaoyao, I'll visit you in two days."

"Okay."

Lu Yaoyao then hung up the video.

Then, I immediately called Hao Jie again. As soon as she picked up, a smile spread across her face: "What's up"

"I want to make a film about ancient female protagonists. Can you help me find some suitable scripts" Isn't it about facing the abyss She might as well jump into the abyss and have a showdown with it.

Many people secretly compare her with Xu Zhao, comparing their family background, personality, and achievements in the entertainment industry. Those comparisons have always been passive and imposed on Lu Yaoyao. Since that's the case, she might as well face them head-on.

Regardless of the outcome, she had to take this step and face Xu Zhao.

As soon as Haojie heard this, her heart skipped a beat. Xu Zhao's big female lead film was a major production, with top-notch value, production team, and cast, all boasting the strongest overall capabilities.

Some things can't be accomplished with just money. Auntie Hao is afraid that if she loses, the media or the internet will make a huge fuss about it.

But then Haojie thought, it's a good thing Lu YaoYao has this ambition. Let's compare. If she really loses, everyone will just think it's natural. But what if she wins Her heart disease could also be cured. Why not do it

"So Haojie readily agreed: “Sure, there have been roles of leading ladies before that reached out to me. I have a few similar scripts here. I'll send them to you, and you can see which one suits you best You can especially focus on this one, *Xiang Zui Cuò*.”"

This work enjoys a high degree of popularity online, with a loyal readership and fan base. This is a good thing, of course. However, high popularity can also be a double-edged sword. If it's not restored...

Characters that come from the reader's heart may be scolded!

"Alright, first send me the novel and the script." Lu Yaoyao always got things done efficiently and decisively. Once she made a decision, she executed it with exceptional strength.

After that, at the film studio, she and Xu Zhao only occasionally met in the hotel. The rest of the time they barely saw each other. Both crews were very busy, and there wasn't much overlap between them anyway.

Xu Zhao's play is a big production, so whether it's the actors or the staff, there are many people and a grand scale.

While Lu YaoYao's side was now just filming her scenes alone, so most of the actors and crew had already left. Compared to Xu Zhao's busy set, it seemed much emptier. She was a small star with no clout at all.

One day, while having breakfast at the hotel's buffet restaurant as usual, she and her assistant realized that Xu Zhao's crew had arrived early. Some individuals had their own tables, others shared tables in groups of two or three, filling every seat in the restaurant.

The breakfast buffet was almost cleared, leaving only some unappetizing scraps picked over. The chef had also stopped replenishing it.

The assistant felt guilty. She should have come down earlier to buy breakfast, she used to be able to do that at this time with no problem.

"I'm going to find the chef and have them make me a separate one." The assistant said as she sprinted towards the window to find the chef.

Most of the time, Lu Yaoyao sticks to a diet and eats very little for lunch and dinner. She relies on having a big breakfast to make up for it and get her nutrients. That's why her assistant is so dedicated to making sure she has a good one.

She came back shortly after, because the chef said there were no more ingredients left and that a separate dish would have to be made.

We have to wait for the procurement personnel to come back, it will take quite some time.

"Shall we go find a restaurant outside the hotel" the assistant suggested.

"Why don't you just eat here We still have eggs and milk, right"road. 。After-school study time was about to begin. The entrance of the school, which had been bustling just a moment ago, gradually quieted down. Only three or four late students ran quickly past her...
