Chapter 426: Zhang Li’s Choice
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After meeting Zhang Li, Jing Yao stayed in Lin City for three more days before returning to Bi City with Grandpa.
The Zhang Family was worried about them taking care of the old and the young, so they still sent Zhang Ting to send them to Bi City.
As Zhang Hui was here, Liang Xun’s parents also came to the house the day after he came.
After having a meal with them, Liang Xun and Jing Yao resumed their busy lives.
After about a week, Liang Xun received a call from Zhang Ji.
Zhang Ji told him that Zhang Li had already gone in.
She still didn’t listen to Jing Yao’s suggestion to withdraw the lawsuit. In her heart, the most important thing was probably to let Jing Mo be punished.
Hence, she did not listen to anyone’s persuasion.
Liang Xun did not say anything after hearing that. He only said that he understood and briefly told Zhang Ji about Zhang Hui’s situation.
With his granddaughter and great-grandson by his side, Zhang Hui was in much better spirits than when he was in Lin City.
Once one was alone, all those negative emotions would appear.
Mr. Liang knew the Zhang Family’s situation and would come over to play chess with Zhang Hui every day. Although the two of them were of different generations, they had a lot of common topics and hobbies.
They got along very well.
If Mr. Liang came, Sun Jia would also follow. This way, Zhang Hui would have Mr. Liang to play chess, drink tea, and discuss calligraphy with him, while Little Liang Jing would be cared for by Sun Jia.
Sun Jia would bring him out to play with other children of similar age.
Although Liang Jing still looked cold and didn’t want to play with others, he liked to go out, so he looked to be in a good mood.
At least, when Jing Yao returned home at night, he didn’t cause so much trouble.
Jing Yao found out about Zhang Li’s final choice from Liang Xun that day.
She was not surprised at all. Actually, when she advised Zhang Li, she knew that Zhang Li would most likely not consider her words.
She knew Zhang Li too well.
Even if she couldn’t bear to part with her family, she would still choose to send Jing Mo in in the end because this was her greatest obsession now. It was the most important thing to her. Then, anyone else would have to put everything else aside.
Just like how she felt that being with Jing Mo was the most important thing back then, so she could resolutely abandon her family, abandon her 20-odd years of life, and choose to leave with Jing Mo.
More than 20 years later, her choice was the same.
“You don’t have to tell Grandpa about this,” said Jing Yao.
Liang Xun nodded, but they all knew that Zhang Hui knew this very well.
However, there was no need to specially mention it.
After all, no matter if he said it or not, this would become a hurtful spot in Zhang Hui’s heart. It would hurt just thinking about it.
“By the way, Chen Xin’s drama is about to start casting,” Liang Xun said.
Jing Yao was slightly shocked and said in surprise, “When? And how did you know?”
Liang Xun said, “The date is set for next Wednesday. The casting will probably be publicly held tomorrow and the day after.”
Liang Xun did not say how he knew at all. In fact, it was because he contacted Chen Xin today and suggested sponsoring him.
He did not expect Chen Xin to reject him.
It was amazing that there would be a director who took the initiative to reject investments in this day and age.
However, after thinking about it, he understood.
Chen Xin had put in a lot of effort into this drama. He wanted to choose actors that he felt were suitable for the roles. If he accepted Liang Xun’s sponsorship, he was worried that his choice would be affected.
Hence, Liang Xun didn’t mention this again. He could wait until Jing Yao joined the production team before talking about sponsorship.
It wasn’t that he wanted Chen Xin to take care of Jing Yao more and give her more scenes, but if they had enough funds, the accommodation and food prepared by the production team would be better and the quality of the drama would be better.
Liang Xun’s news was very accurate. That night, Jing Yao saw Chen Xin’s announcement that the casting of the movie “Xiaokui” had officially begun.
The first to be chosen was the male and female leads.
The notice said that anyone could sign up. The registration deadline was next Wednesday.
This meant that there was no such thing as recommendation. As long as you signed up, you could go to the audition even if you had never acted before.
Many newcomers from the Film Academy were eager to try when they saw this news.
Seeing this news, Shen Zhao was a little worried for Jing Yao.
Shen Zhao: “Wouldn’t the competition be very high this way? Moreover, it’s said that Chen Xin likes to use new actors. The male lead of his war movie that broke the box office is a pure newcomer. Not only is he a pure newcomer, but he’s also a deliveryman who has never learned any acting..”
