The crew had prepare private room for her. This privileges make her more awkward. She knew no one in the set, just Jun Li. She decide to go out and try to socialized. At first because of her high profile background, the crew distant themselves.

However NiNi had take the initiative to greet and talk to them. The air felt less awkward when NiNi start to tell jokes to the crews. Then Director for this movie, director Hao tell her to start preparing to shoot.

Director Hao is one of the famous director in the industry. He had many box-office worth creation. Waiting for me after class is his biggest project this year, yet the investor change it as they wish. He was already unhappy to start with.

His movie was threaten to fail just because one spoiler missy want to act. He hate this kind of actress the most, using connection to do whatever they want.

When Director Hao arrived at the set, he was quite surprise NiNi take the initiative to get along with the crew and familiarize herself. He taught she would act like those spoiled rich young missy. Acting almighty and do whatever they want.

But he also don't want to be prejudice, no matter how unsatisfied he was with this sudden changes of female lead. He judge actress based on their act.

NiNi had change her costumes and now the makeup artist is applying natural make up to her face. she was wearing uniform as Song Ming Xi. She look exactly like a high scholar going to school. She looks fresh and beautiful.

Her small figure fit the teenager girl even if she was 22 years old already. Her soft features face and skin were as good as baby, it looks like she was indeed trap in her teenage year.

"Thank you Mei-jie, you're so talented! I become so much younger thanks to you."

Happy with her sweet mouth, the makeup artist Mei-jie smile happily. "What are you talking about, you have a nice base to start with. Now quick go to set."

Xiao Ni nodded and go out from her room. Just when she was going to director Hao, she hear a ruckus not far away from where she stand.

"Who is this NiNi, acting so high. She even got a private room for god sake, even our Ling Fei-jie didn't that arrogant." A beautiful tall girl says to the group of girls.

NiNi recognized, that girl who just speaking ill of her called Ye Hua newly famous actress. She was sucking up to senior actress Ling Fei Fei. On Ling Fei left is a another figurant actress Yue Lan.

"Well she indeed had a beautiful face, but it doesn't meant she can act."

NiNi walk pass them with chin up. It's useless to pick a fight with them. NiNi smile a polite smile while walking passed them.

"Senior, please take care of me." She said as she smile and ignore their reaction.

"You see senior? Just because she had backing she dares to act impolite to you." NiNi frown hearing this, she thought she was polite enough to someone just bad mouthing her.

"It's alright, just let her embarrassed herself when she act." Ling Fei had eaten the shit those two girls feeding her. NiNi smile when she heard this.

True indeed, you can judge me if you know my ability already.

She can't act? She almost always play the female lead in her school theater back then. Just because she choose to sing, it doesn't meant she can't act.

So with confidence she tell the director she is ready. Thankfully the male lead, Alex Xu didn't seem to underestimate her. She knows because they had talk for building their chemistry. They will play as lover after all, it would be awkward if they don't get to know first.

The whole crews were curious at NiNi's ability. They want to see NiNi self-shaming herself. She only a singer how dare she take a female role as her acting debut.

NiNi smile, she was nervous but confidence. Her smile was so sweet, she look totally like an innocent high school student.

They will take the first scene, where Song Ming Xi meet Da Ren for the first time. Song Ming Xi is busy reading books in the library as Da Ren sit 2 seats away from her. Da Ren keep staring glances at her while she studies. He keeps staring until she notices him.

Then Song Ming Xi will go back to her class while Da Ren keep following her like a loss puppy. Alas she become angry and confront him. They start their friendship from there. It wasn't a hard scene but this NiNi have no experience at all. Thus they still stand to watch Xiao Ni acting.

"Act 1 scene 1 start." The movie board was clicked then they focus on the acting.

NiNi show seriousness on her face as she pretend to read book. She sometimes will furrow her eyebrows pretend she didn't understand anything. She could feel the gaze on her, slowly she put the books down. Her movement is elegant as she stare back at Da Ren curiously.

Her innocent face full with question as she stare back at Da Ren. Then she five Da Ren a little smile and focus back to the book she held.

Da Ren was nervous, he was caught in act. Thus he dares not to stare at her bluntly again. He rather hiding his blushing face.

Then NiNi stand up, packing some book as she walk while continue reading the book she read. She walk past the librarian and greet the teacher.

Such a detail! Song Ming Xi is a best student at school. Other than smart brain she must be loved by teacher because her good attitudes. Director Hao was quite please with NiNi's attentiveness to detail.

Then she go through the corridor still reading her book. Ignoring other student look to her. As se walk past the corridor the wind blows gently. She look up the the sky and her lips smile gently.

Everybody was in gaze, even Ling Fei Fei and other crew was mesmerized by her alluring beauty. Then she walk again, reading her book.

"Huh! just a pretty vase." Ye Hua keep bad mouthing her but no one care about her as their focus were lock on Xiao Ni.

Then Xiao Ni face began to show annoyance. She began to realized someone is following her. She look down, try to see who follow her. Then she turn to Da Ren.

"Why are you following me?" she said in annoyed tone but maintain her voice. She was a role model for other student. Although she was angry she couldn't act barbaric.

"I… I…" Alex Xu is a good actor, thus he really acts like a shy boy in love. But he must admit, NiNi acting bought the whole atmosphere up. She bought him feels like what Da Ren feels without any line."

Xiao Ni show her questioning look mixed with her annoyance.

"Classmate, don't follow me like that. You can be my friend if you want. My name is Song Ming Xi." She said with proud as she smile to Da Ren. Song Ming Xi is a best student, she was shining with her good grades. It's natural to feels pride.

But this pride Xiao Ni shown was different, it was just like she was born to be a champion. A winner in life.

"My… My… my name is Da Ren." Xiao Ni smile as they hand shake. Da Ren show his dumbfounded expression. He was spelled under Song Ming Xi's captivating smile.

"CUT! GOOD NOT BAD XIAO NI, KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK." Director Han smile widely at her. Director Han is of course happy. Looks like she is not that bad he thought.

However, the difficultness in this movie is when she was in mental illness state. Thus for further face slap Xiao Ni had to wait a little longer.

"Xiao Ni you can act! I was shocked, you didn't even have an error. You should act from the first time, why be a singer?" one of the crew that befriending Xiao Ni said already. Xiao Ni smile at her and said "No, I still had a lot to learn."

"Indeed, it was an easy scene. Everybody can do that." Yue Lan said with unpleasant voice.

"Everybody knows she snatch the role, she was good at scheming!" Ye Hua join Yue Lan to bully NiNi. Tottaly forgot that this girl can simply call someone and replace them.

But NiNi smile at them, not wanting to reply at all. This respond make them even more furious.
