1916: The New Show Begins

The New Show Begins

"Le Tian, not bad. You've scored Best Actor Ding." Mu Qi looked at Le Tian with a smile that did not reach her eyes. It was hard to tell if she was really flattering Le Tian or mocking her.0

Le Tian watched as Ding Yuejia lay on the small table and wrote in the Mathematics book Le Tian brought along for him. When Le Tian heard Mu Qi's words, Le Tian turned around to look at Mu Qi. "Go ahead if you like stealing so much. You like to snatch other people's things, don't you? What, did you fail to steal Dean Nalan?"

Mu Qi's expression did not change. After all, she was someone who witnessed many storms.

"Le Tian, don't you want to know about Dong Feng?" Mu Qi suddenly asked.

Eh—

Dong Feng?

Ding Yuejia's little ears immediately perked up. He knew this person.

Le Tian's hands tightened slightly as she lowered her eyes to hide her emotions. She looked up at Mu Qi and replied, "That's your ex-boyfriend. You can keep your concern to yourself."

Mu Qi was about to say something when someone called her.

Mu Qi smirked. "Le Tian, you should remember to thank me in the future."

Le Tian watched Mu Qi arrogantly turn around and leave. She subtly sneered and mumbled, "I'd have to be nuts to thank her."

Ding Yuejia lifted his little head while holding the pencil in his hand and blinked his large eyes at Le Tian. "Teacher Le Tian, what did you two talk about?"

On the set, he obediently referred to Le Tian as Teacher Le Tian.

Le Tian pulled up a little bench next to him and sat down. Then, she taught him how to do his homework. He was currently completing his first-grade homework. Le Tian hoped she could get him to start as a first grader in September this year.

"Yuejia, when autumn comes, we'll attend school, okay?"

"No." Ding Yuejia refused.

"But you see, Daddy needs to work, and I, your teacher, have my own work too. If you go to school, there will be many friends who will play with you," Le Tian continued to entice the child with the idea of making friends his age.

Ding Yuejia twisted his little head unhappily.

"Le Tian, Yuejia doesn't like going to school." Ding Junqi's personal life assistant was a woman in her thirties. She had long hair and adorned in exquisite makeup. She was a very beautiful woman. Everyone called her Sis Lan.

Sis Lan did not have a good impression of Le Tian because of the news before in addition with the incident with Ding Yuejia.

"Auntie Lan, Teacher Le Tian was just chatting with me." Ding Yuejia ran into Le Tian's arms. He sat on her lap and wrapped his arms around her neck. He looked at Sis Lan unhappily.

Sis Lan paused for a moment and did not speak anymore. She went to the side to get some water for Ding Junqi.

"Mommy, ignore her. Uncle Yu Dong said that she's going through menopause," Ding Yuejia whispered very, very softly into Le Tian's ear.

Le Tian, "…"

What was there to worry about?

There was nothing at all!

"I've said this many times. This is not acting. You're not acting. Why can't you remember just those few lines?"

Hearing Ding Junqi's roar, Le Tian and Ding Yuejia knew that Ding Junqi was angry.

Xin Ya lowered her head to apologize after being scolded, mainly because there were too many technical terms. She was a mere high school graduate. Thus, she had no idea what the words meant. It was difficult for her to remember.

Gu Juexi sat behind the director, not speaking up for Xin Ya.

After all, this was something that Xin Ya had to learn.

"I'll give you ten minutes and we'll start over," Ding Junqi said and turned to leave.

Xin Ya lowered her head as pearls of tears rolled down her face.

Sis Cat pulled her back to the resting area and handed her a tissue. "What's the use of crying? Didn't you memorize your lines yesterday?"

Sis Cat's voice was not loud, and neither was it a form of reprimand. Xin Ya had been under her guidance for almost two months, and she knew that the girl was very diligent. Now, the main problem was the lines. At least nobody criticized her performance.
