After My Divorce I Picked Up the Richest Boss in the World Chapter 120

Chapter 120: Breaking Out

Wu Dai took a deep breath. He had prepared so long just for today’s audition. He no longer wanted to look down on others and live his life carefully.

If he was still at Swallowtail, he definitely would not have the qualifications to participate in the audition. Therefore, this time, he definitely could not disappoint those who trusted him!

He wanted to let everyone see how dazzling he was standing under the spotlight!

Wu Dai walked in front of Director Zheng, bowed deeply, then took two steps back. His whole being seemed to quieten down, abandoning all sense of prosperity and reckless abandon…

When he opened his eyes again, those eyes belonged to a child who was facing the life-and-death moment of his mother.

Wu Dai stood in the middle of the field, wearing plain clothes. His back was straight, and his hands were tightly clasped together. He did not speak, but the tension and helplessness slowly emanated from him, thinning the surrounding air, little by little.

After a long time, he seemed to muster up the courage to open his mouth, “Mom… I… Do not agree…”

“Stay, please… I don’t want to be separated from you!” An assistant looking on from the side almost teared up while watching the performance.

Wu Dai suddenly looked at the assistant. The image of his own mother transposed over the face of the red-eyed assistant. It was the same back then.

His mother had cancer. He had selfishly wanted her to stay, but in the end, because of her unbearable pain, he had agreed to her request — to give up the treatment and let her go…

Now, the mother in the play would stay with her son even if the world collapsed.

But this time, he was not willing to fulfill her wish. He only wanted her to live well!

“Mom, you must remember that you are the person I love the most. Please help me live well…” After saying this, Wu Dai tore his eyes away. He looked at the emptiness in front of him and slowly closed his eyes. His long eyelashes trembled slightly, his expression was calm. Only his tightly clenched hands revealed his emotions.

After a long while, he opened his eyes and smiled with a smile that was both sorrowful and filled with a resolute gentleness…

..

“Cut!” The assistant director’s voice woke up everyone present. The venue immediately erupted into thunderous applause.

Wu Dai’s performance allowed everyone to see a child’s love for his mother. It allowed them to experience what real family love was.

Director Zheng had not expected much from Wu Dai. This only made him all the more pleasantly surprised. Such a showing made him settle on Wu Dai without any hesitation!

Wu Dai was so excited that his eyes were slightly red. He subconsciously wanted to hug the person closest to him to celebrate!

However, before he could touch Jiang Zhi, he was blocked by a figure.

Lu Mian saw that he actually dared to hug Jiang Zhi, so he darted over to Jiang Zhi and put a hand against Wu Dai’s chest.

Wu Dai: “…”

Jiang Zhi: “…”

Lu Mian looked at Wu Dai with disdain. He turned to look at Jiang Zhi with jealousy, grievance, and resentment.

Wu Dai looked at Lu Mian in confusion. He did not understand why Lu Mian would stop him. He looked at Jiang Zhi, just as confused.

Jiang Zhi shook her head helplessly.

This was the king of jealousy!

The confirmation of the male lead meant that the audition was officially over. Director Zheng immediately made an announcement.

[Congratulations @Wu Dai and @Jiang Xue for becoming our male and female leads, acting together in a beautiful mother and son story.]

[The cast and crew of “The Afterlife” is complete and we are about to set sail. Please look forward to it.]

The moment Director Zheng’s message was posted, it immediately caused a stir on the internet,

Although Jiang Xue was not very famous now, she had once been very popular, but Wu Dai, this newbie, was practically unknown.

The netizens started to dig up Wu Dai’s past and background, which caused Wu Dai to gain a lot of fans.

Yin Yue also took advantage of the fact that the internet was questioning Wu Dai’s identity and posted a message.

[Power abuse is so sweet. It can make a newcomer and a washed-up little flower become Director Zheng’s male and female lead.]

[Is this a movie that Star Glory invested in, or is it a movie that was made to promote Star Glory’s newcomers?!]

[I hope ‘The Afterlife’ wouldn’t disappoint us!]

Yin Yue even brought along her own fans to jointly accuse the production team of a major conspiracy in ‘The Afterlife’.

[My heart aches for our sister. She actually encountered such biased judgment.]

[If Star Glory has already internally decided everything, then there’s no need to go through the motions. It’s really boring. Isn’t this a waste of other people’s time?]

[That’s right. Our brother has also been rejected. I don’t believe that newbie Wu Dai’s acting skills can be better than our brother’s!]

The Internet instantly became chaotic. Many fans emerged to tear each other apart, casting a shadow over the filming of The Afterlife!
