However, if they acted in two roles at the same time, it would cause the actors to not be serious about acting, and the quality would drop.

“No.” Shi Xi immediately rejected it.

“Then we can only wait until the filming of this drama is over, or we can change the male lead. Lou Ruicong will also be lying in bed for a month or two,” Han Chuan reminded.

One matter after another came knocking on Shi Xi’s door. Shi Xi instantly wanted to return to the palace and continue her life of idling around and waiting for death.

“Let’s discuss it properly when I go to the company.” Shi Xi’s head hurt.

“Your latest job is in three days. If you haven’t made a decision by then, I can only reject the job,” Han Chuan reminded her again.

“Is it that interview-type variety show?”

“Yes, 1 personally don’t recommend you to reject this job. This is a very well-known variety show. If you reject it, it will be a big loss for you,” Han Chuan analyzed solemnly.

Shi Xi sighed. “I understand. I’ll think about it.”

When they arrived at the company, Zhu Lin came to fetch Shi Xi and said, “Someone from Hongcao Entertainment is here. Brother Han is receiving them in the meeting room and asked me to bring you over.”

Shi Xi paused in her footsteps and asked curiously, “Hongcao Entertainment?”

Zhu Lin nodded and continued, “It’s the producer of Hongcao Film and Television, Jiang Feng.”

“He has a xianxia drama that is about to start filming. I wonder if he came over at this time to ask you to film.”

“He had just arrived and Brother Han was dealing with him.”

“We’ll know when we go and take a look.” Shi Xi walked into the meeting room.

When they arrived at the meeting room, Shi Xi saw a middle-aged man with a buzz cut sitting opposite Han Chuan. He was drinking tea with a sharp look in his narrowed eyes.

However, he instantly hid it and stood up with a smile.

“Miss Shi is even more beautiful than the video!” Jiang Feng stood up and took the initiative to greet her. “Jiang Feng.”

“Hello.” Shi Xi found a chair and sat down. “May I know why Mr. Jiang has come to our Kuai Xue?”

“It’s like this. We have a project that’s about to start shooting. We want to invite Miss Shi to be the female lead.” As he spoke, Jiang Feng’s assistant had already distributed the script to Shi Xi and Han Chuan. “This is an adaptation of the xianxia novel [Nine Lives of Peace.] It’s also our Hongcao’s key project this year.”

Shi Xi and Han Chuan looked at each other.

“[Nine Lives of Peace] is a very famous novel. It’s indeed a big IP.”

Han Chuan opened the script and saw the estimated time of filming. His expression was a little bad as he said, “Shi Xi’s movie, [Energetic Girl 2], is about to start filming, and your drama is also going to start filming? You want Shi Xi to roll dramas?”

“Of course we won’t let Miss Shi roll dramas.” The corners of Jiang Feng’s lips curled up slightly. “1 suggest that Miss Shi prioritize the filming of [Nine Lives of Peace] and wait until [Nine Lives of Peace] is completed before filming [Energetic Girl 2].”

“No.” Shi Xi refused.

“Miss Shi, don’t reject me so quickly!” Jiang Feng smiled. “You can take a look first. It’s the male lead of [Nine Lives of Peace].”

Hearing this, Shi Xi flipped open the script.

Shi Xi’s eyes were filled with surprise when she saw Pei Jie’s name written on the male lead.

“Pei Jie?”

“Pei Jie is an artiste of our Hongcao Film and Television, so he naturally has priority over our internal filming.”

“I know that Pei Jie is going to collaborate with Miss Shi on [Energetic Girl 2], but this xianxia drama is also a project that we have been planning for a long time.”

“Miss Shi, please prioritize the filming of [Nine Lives of Peace]!”
