The man in front of her had a mixture of unpredictable emotions, so Ji Niandong didn’t say anything further!
"Oh!" She responded, putting down the scissors, and kindly reminded him, "With such a large lawn, it’s better to hire someone specifically to take care of it regularly!"
"You seem quite skilled, so I’ll leave it to you from now on!" Sheng Mingyuan said casually.
"But what?" Sheng Mingyuan turned to look at her, "Did you think becoming an apprentice and learning a skill was so easy? Young people these days, really can’t endure any hardship!"
He continued walking inside, with Ji Niandong following behind explaining, "I didn’t mean it that way. I used to plant indoor potted plants when I was bored before, but I’m not very familiar with outdoor ones. If you leave it all to me, I’m afraid I’ll mess it up!"
This girl seemed so well-behaved, not so easy to fool! Sure enough...
Sheng Mingyuan’s previously smiling expression darkened somewhat, and he instructed the secretary beside him, "Take her inside to record a clip, let me see her current level."
Ji Niandong followed the secretary inside, and everyone around was talking about her. Sent to do hard labor as soon as she arrived, it seemed this newcomer wasn’t very likable.
"Miss Ji, you’re aware of the current trending mini-show, right?" the secretary asked.
"I know!" Many celebrities are playing it, and it almost took over Weibo, how could she not know.
The secretary lifted the set scene, "Go in! Just act according to whatever is played shortly!"
Once she finished speaking, as soon as the set closed, she immediately appeared in front of the camera, with a few small lines of text displayed, it was a dialogue between a man and a woman, and the secretary said, "You can start now!"
Started even before she finished reading!
"Oh, then the bubble bath will warm you up!"
"You’re not romantic at all!"
"Why do you say I’m not romantic?"
"Every time I used to say I was cold, my ex-boyfriend would take off his jacket for me."
"You mean, the one who froze to death?!"
"Alright, Miss Ji, you can leave now!"
Ji Niandong was stunned, what does this mean? Could it be that this mini-show was meant to test her acting skills? But why did she have to do her own voiceover?
Before she had time to gather her thoughts, the secretary took her to Sheng Mingyuan’s office.
An impromptu performance, Sheng Mingyuan glanced at it twice, and with disdain, turned off the video and said, "Even a few lines of dialogue can feel like a language textbook reading, dropping out of high school really wasted your talent, and that expression..."
Sheng Mingyuan had an attitude like he didn’t want to say much, and asked, "Your phone has a recording function, right?"
Ji Niandong nodded, and he waved his hand, "Go back, practice by yourself first, record and listen to it yourself! Go back and watch the mini-show, even Background Extra A’s acting is better than yours!"
He mercilessly critiqued her, making her feel utterly defeated, while others were still receiving other training, yet she got sent off after watering some plants and recording a mini-show!
Is it really this bad now?!
Ji Niandong felt a heaviness in her heart, and then followed the secretary out.
"Miss Ji, you should practice well at home, and then come to see the boss again, otherwise, he will still send you away!" the secretary kindly reminded.
Ji Niandong nodded, "Thank you, I will definitely practice well!"
It was indeed her problem, now, apart from intensively making up for her lacks, she didn’t have time to waste even on a sigh.
This time, instead of getting discouraged, she became more aware of her own problems, becoming more courageous after each setback.
