Rebirth Sweet Wife, Super Cute-Chapter 245: No Man Is Ten Thousand Times More Handsome Than Me
Everyone shared their views on the male lead, and the director and Bai Haoxue exchanged a glance, leaving the last one.
The performances of the few individuals earlier each had their unique traits: some roared in anger, and some vented by throwing things and hitting others.
However, Tang Lingmu’s performance portrayed a restrained anger; he clenched his fists and slightly pursed his lips, yet it sent chills down one’s spine, especially his gaze, which made one’s hair stand on end.
"Tang Lingmu, the role of Bei Shengrui is yours!"
"Are you sure?" Tang Lingmu was a bit surprised, "Director Bai, you should know about my past."
Bai Haoxue nodded, "Of course."
Tang Lingmu was an artist under Star Entertainment, and a couple of years ago, he was a hot new star, receiving a lot of attention.
Not only was he handsome, but his acting skills were excellent. He performed well in a serious drama, earning praise from many veteran actors.
However, he ruined his own future.
At an event, he directly swung a fist at an artist from another company, almost beating them half to death, requiring a long hospital stay.
That artist debuted earlier and had a much larger fan base than him. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
After this incident, labels like disrespectful to seniors, acting pretentious after gaining fame, conceited, bad temper, and poor morals were attached to Tang Lingmu.
The other party didn’t press charges and chose to forgive him, which spared him from prison.
But the online uproar was tremendous, and the fans of the beaten artist caused chaos wherever Tang Lingmu appeared.
The company had no choice but to urgently withdraw all his activities and schedules, shelving him.
Tang Lingmu’s incident of hitting people was something she had witnessed. Looking at Tang Lingmu now, he had become more stable and mature after two years of settling down.
When selecting candidates, she already had a good impression of him, and today, after the audition, she was sure it was him.
"You’re still willing to use me?"
Over these two years, he experienced ups and downs, enjoyed the flattery and opportunism of others, and was pursued by millions of fans. He also experienced the vicissitudes of life and the coldness of human relationships.
Would a pie really fall from the sky for him?
Tang Lingmu found it both amusing and sorrowful.
Bai Haoxue said, "That incident was two years ago, and it’s largely forgotten now. Moreover, I value your acting skills and your understanding of the character."
The performances of the other actors were too superficial, and their understanding of the male lead too shallow.
Even though it’s a romance drama, the script involves themes of protection, faith, and the choices between great and small loves.
Tang Lingmu’s comprehension and portrayal of the male lead Bei Shengrui were thorough.
"Moreover, the male lead is a War God, and there’s bound to be a lot of close combat scenes. You’re a black belt in Taekwondo, and you’ll adapt to martial arts instructors’ guidance much quicker than others, achieving much better results."
Tang Lingmu gazed intently at Bai Haoxue, "Director Bai, no, in the theater, I should accurately call you the producer. Do you have some hidden agenda?"
Bai Haoxue: "..."
Has life been so harsh on him that he has developed paranoia?
Bai Haoxue, "Tang Lingmu, do you think an over-the-hill artist like you has anything worth my interest?"
Tang Lingmu, "Of course I do, my body. You have peculiar tastes, you want to exploit me?"
Bai Haoxue: "..."
"Haha!"
Bai Haoxue looked at Tang Lingmu, smiling without genuine warmth, "You’re feeling quite good about yourself. My man is ten thousand times more handsome than you. Interested in you? Only if I’m blind, but there’s no ’if’."
Tang Lingmu: "Impossible!"
Bai Haoxue: "What’s impossible?"
Tang Lingmu: "There’s no man in the world ten thousand times more handsome than me."
Bai Haoxue: "..."
