Quick Transmigration with Female Lead Aura - Chapter 123-Part 2
Chapter 123-Part 2
Xiao Qian raised an eyebrow, thinking it over. Indeed, Xue Hang was indeed a well-known beauty.
“Then congratulations to you, congratulations!”
Jiang Nian sincerely replied, “Thank you, thank you. I will cherish this hard-won happiness.”
Xiao Qian coughed: “…”
Jia Ping covered his face: “…”
He really couldn’t bear to watch.
Why so proud? Have some modesty!
…
The press conference was a success. Jiang Nian began to focus on the ratings and audience feedback for “Before Dawn.” She worked so hard because she wanted recognition from both the public and professionals, which would lead to more job opportunities and choices, allowing her to earn more and more big gold!
However, Jiang Nian didn’t appear in the first few episodes. Online reviews praised the performance of Xiao Qian and other skilled actors, as well as the director and production company. With the increasing positive reviews, there was skepticism about Jiang Nian’s role.
“Jiang Nian used to act in idol dramas, and her acting was barely passable. ‘Before Dawn’ is full of skilled actors. I’m afraid she’ll be overshadowed!”
“Yeah, while I sympathize with her experiences, I don’t want her to ruin ‘Before Dawn.’ Why cast her as the lead?”
“Sympathy aside, if she ruins ‘Before Dawn,’ I’ll still criticize her!”
“Jiang Nian has no acting skills! Why not stick to idol dramas? Why take on a serious role!”
“Poor Boss Xiao Qian’s acting!”
“Poor Boss Xiao Qian +1!”
There were many such comments. Of course, some rational people supported her: “Jiang Nian hasn’t even appeared yet, and you’re already criticizing. Do you really think you’re that objective?”
The online debate was significant. Jia Ping told her to ignore these people, who were just bored troublemakers or venting their life frustrations.
Jiang Nian naturally didn’t take such people seriously. Why care about those who lack basic common sense? Even children know to watch first before commenting. Why bother with those who blind themselves?
She was more concerned about Xue Hang, who had been abroad for a week. Her longing was truly surging like a tide!
Seeing Jiang Nian so calm made Jia Ping happy. After all, someone who had experienced online harassment wouldn’t be bothered by this. But… her golden outfit was quite dazzling.
“Why dress so elaborately if you’re not going out?”
Jiang Nian wore a light yellow dress with gold hairpins, necklaces, earrings, bracelets, anklets, and even three or four gold rings on her fingers!
Jia Ping knew these were gifts from Xue Hang, invaluable and cherished by Jiang Nian.
Jiang Nian rolled her eyes at Jia Ping, saying, “Brother Jia, you don’t understand. This is to calm my heart.”
“…Huh?”
“With such wonderful gold in the world, what’s online harassment?”
“…”
Jia Ping was dazed. That made sense? No, it made perfect sense!
At eight in the evening, Jiang Nian sat in front of the TV to watch the premiere of “Before Dawn.”
Xue Hang, wanting to surprise her, didn’t call to inform her of his early return. He used his fingerprint lock to enter and found the room dimly lit, with the TV playing a jewelry commercial.
He hung his coat on the rack by the door and tiptoed inside, where he indeed saw Jiang Nian asleep on the sofa.
As he approached, he was almost blinded by the reflections from her gold accessories. He blinked and noticed the butterfly necklace on her chest, the gold hairpin in her hair, and the bracelets and rings on her hands…
All gifts from him.
Xue Hang leaned down and kissed her forehead. With her eyes still closed, Jiang Nian’s lips curved into a secret smile as she hugged his neck and said, “Am I dreaming?”
Xue Hang: “No, it’s not a dream. I’m back.”
“No, this must be a dream. I must miss you so much that you’re appearing in my dreams.”
“Really? How much do you miss me?”
“A lot, a lot. I dream about you all the time.”
Xue Hang picked up the butterfly necklace around her neck and asked slowly, “Is that why you’re wearing the things I gave you?”
Jiang Nian: “Of course. Because you gave them to me, I like them even more. It’s also to remind myself that, with such wonderful gold in the world, nothing else matters. I’ll cherish them. Thank you, baby.”
Before Xue Hang could fully enjoy the compliment, his expression darkened again: “…”
He captured her lips heavily, biting her tongue, not giving her a chance to breathe.
He grasped her waist, unbuckled his belt with one hand, and looked down at her.
“Open up.”
Jiang Nian was nearly dizzy from the kiss, thinking that this man being a rogue was incredibly enticing.
Xue Hang was really losing it.
…
Late at night, Xue Hang emerged from the bathroom. Wearing only a towel, his well-defined body still glistening with droplets of water, he sat by the bed, looking at the little fool who had already fallen asleep. He took her hand, feeling the rough calluses on her palm.
When he held her hand before, it was soft and tender. But after months of sword practice, blisters had formed and burst, turning into a layer of rough calluses. When she touched his body, the slight friction brought a subtle, tingling itch.
Xue Hang kissed her palm.
When Jiang Nian, playing Song Chengcheng, first appeared on screen, the audience’s initial focus wasn’t on her acting but on her crisp and powerful fight scenes. Each punch and kick was executed with great force. The crew even revealed that Jiang Nian performed most of the stunts herself, including a scene where she jumped from the second floor onto a car roof, then flipped off the car, let her hair down, put on a hat, and transformed from a cold, mysterious woman into a gentle lady in one fluid motion. Even though it was only a few seconds long, it was enough to make viewers exclaim in admiration!
As viewers started to appreciate Jiang Nian’s impressive action scenes, they also realized her acting in dramatic scenes was equally good. Especially in scenes opposite Xiao Qian, their interactions were full of sparks. One played a flirtatious playboy, the other a cold yet alluring beauty; their exchanges were brimming with chemistry, leaving the audience wanting to cheer!
This naturally slapped the faces of those netizens who had previously told Jiang Nian to go back and film idol dramas.
It hurts so much!
