Chapter 46: She Refused   It was illogical, really.

“Miss Yan, I didn’t hear you properly?” Chen Wanda was not sure, so he asked again, ” You mean, you decline the offer?”

“Yes,” Yan Huan nodded respectfully. She hid her scorn and disdain perfectly to play an innocent coward. “I’m afraid I can’t play the role well. Therefore, I’ve thought about it for a long time and made the decision. I think I am not competent for it.”

Off to the side, Yi Ling was like a cat on a hot tin roof. How could Yan Huan miss such a good chance? It was the heroine! A chance like this was rare and hard to find! She tried to pinch Yan Huan’s waist and stepped on her foot with force. Yan Huan felt pain but still smiled politely, and she pinched Yi Ling back.

Who are you to pinch my waist?

Yi Ling withdrew her hand promptly and got it. Yan Huan really didn’t want to take the role. Yan Huan was stubborn sometimes, and would not be persuaded by Yi Ling. But she really thought it was a rare opportunity. She was afraid that Yan Huan would regret it later, but she couldn’t help her.

Chen Wanda was also worried, you could see cold sweat on his forehead. It was hard for him to find such a beautiful actress. If she really refused, it would be very difficult for him. He didn’t know if could he find another actress as beautiful as this girl again.

“Miss Yan, the most important part of the movie is the plot. High acting skills are not necessary. You just need to play the role naturally.”

Ha, naturally? Yan Huan dropped her eyes, her gaze falling on her fingers. Right, a naked role, naturally? Of course it needed to be natural.

“Sorry, Director Chen, I can’t accept the role.” Yan Huan refused again, with a soft voice. She was not tough at all but everyone who knew her knew that it was not negotiable if she refused something. If she said that one word, no, then change was impossible.

Pausing for a moment, her soft voice sounded again.

“I still want to keep my feet on the ground, and make it step by step. And I am young, I will have a lot of chances in the future. I think there will be many actresses who are more suitable than me for such a good role.” Then, she stood up and offered her hand to shake with Chen Wanda, “Sir, sorry for wasting your time.”

Chen Wanda desperately looked to Yi Ling, but she gave him a look that showed she was willing but unable to help. Chen Wanda was discouraged and felt uncomfortable. He thought it was easy to sign a contract with such an unknown actress. And he had succeed many times before, no one had refused him like Yan Huan.

It was like the sound of nails on a chalkboard, which made him uncomfortable but would not hurt him.

“Humph!” He scoffed, picking up his script instead of shaking Yan Huan’s hand. His face darkened suddenly, and his voice was filled with scorn. “I’ll see what kind of role you can get in the future. You are just an acting nobody. How dare you try to make it here?”

Yi Ling wanted to explain, but Yan Huan took her arm tightly.
