Transmigration as a Female Supporting Role Who Attempted Suicide

Chapter 25

A cameraman beside them captured this moment. He had long been a fan of this pair. The filming over the past few days had made him feel somewhat excited for some reason.

Seeing her peel a full bowl of shrimp for Shen Shuyao, the director nodded in satisfaction. Adding some special effects in post-production would definitely make this scene extra sweet.

On Liang Jie's side, seeing Ji Nian peel shrimp for Shen Shuyao made her jealous. "Xiao Nian, you're making me so sad."

Ji Nian, who was still carefully peeling shrimp, looked up with innocent wide eyes. Strong survival instincts made her point to the bowl she was peeling.

"I was just about to peel some for you." Ji Nian then smiled.

Liang Jie turned her head arrogantly to the side. "I don't believe you."

Wu Hai, who had eaten his fill, saw this scene and laughingly said to the people beside him, "Sister Liang, let younger brother me be of service. I'll peel however much you want."

Liang Jie laughed. "Okay, peel this whole plate."

Wu Hai was taken aback. He blinked and nodded. "Sister Liang, let's pretend I didn't just say that."

"Hahahaha." Zhou Sheng laughed out loud.

Liang Jie put on an offended look. "Just now someone said they'd peel shrimp for me."

Shen Shuyao laughed behind her hand. To be honest, the atmosphere on this variety show was quite good. Getting to know everyone over this period, she found they all had great personalities and there hadn't been any conflicts.

Having peeled a bowlful, Ji Nian hurriedly passed it to Liang Jie with a smile. "Sister Liang, please accept with a smile."

Liang Jie was surprised. She didn't expect the bowl of peeled shrimp was really for her. Delighted, she said, "Thank you, Little Nian~"

Wu Hai felt sour on the side. "Nian'er, peel a bowl for brother too."

Ji Nian shot him an unimpressed look, completely done with him. "Don't try to take advantage. Go where it's cool."

"Hahahaha." Liang Jie laughed loudly. She said to Wu Hai, "Peel it yourself."

At this point, laughter rang out around the dining table. Everyone was infected with good cheer.

After lunch, Ji Nian received notice from the director to go over.

Ji Nian was confused since filming was going well. She didn't know why she was being summoned but still followed the staff over.

The director was discussing something with the assistant director. Seeing the woman arrive, he stopped and smiled a greeting: "Xiao Nian."

Ji Nian was caught off guard. She responded obediently, "Director."

The director nodded. "Xiao Nian, as you know, we signed you earlier because another actress had scheduling conflicts, so you came to fill in for one season.

Ji Nian nodded. "Yes."

"Now that we've finished filming this season, the other guest is also ready to come. We'll start filming the next season. You did quite well. I look forward to working with you again in the future." Appreciation shone in the director's eyes.

Ji Nian finally understood. So they had finished filming. She really earned this 50,000 yuan easily.

"Of course. Thank you for giving me this opportunity, Director. Please contact me anytime if you have a show needing me in the future."

"Good. You can go chat with the other guests and pack up. I'll have someone drive you to the station." The director knew she had come alone and felt sympathy for the girl.

Ji Nian had just felt happy about getting to go back. But on second thought, no, wouldn't that mean separating from the female lead? What should she do? How could she cozy up then?

Worried, Ji Nian left the director and returned to the residence. Everyone had just eaten and was in the living room watching TV and chatting.

Seeing her come in, Liang Jie called out, "Little Nian, come, I saved you a seat and some fruit."

Ji Nian looked over and returned a smile before going to sit next to Liang Jie.

"Where did you go?" Shen Shuyao asked softly beside her.

Ji Nian sighed inwardly. "I'm getting ready to leave."

Liang Jie was shocked. "Where to?"

"I'm just a guest performer. I'm done after one season. Now that this season is finished filming, I'm going to pack up and go." Ji Nian was reluctant, mainly because the female lead was here. Who knew when they'd cross paths again in the future?

Liang Jie suddenly understood. The original actress set to come had scheduling conflicts and dropped out last minute. Ji Nian was found as a replacement.

Wu Hai was also reluctant to part. After interacting over this period, he felt Ji Nian was quite nice. He didn't expect her to leave so soon.

Ji Nian feared nothing except the female lead forgetting her. So she grabbed Shen Shuyao's hand pitifully. "Shuyao, don't forget me."

Shen Shuyao was stunned, filled with indescribable emotions, mostly reluctance. "Okay, I'll remember you."

Ji Nian nodded, still trying to stir up feelings. How could she leave a deeper impression on the female lead?

Unable to bear their mushy scene on the side, Liang Jie spoiled the mood. "You two are perfect for each other. It's not like you'll never see each other again. Can't you just talk on WeChat?"

Ji Nian was jolted awake. She really was silly. In this age of advanced technology, wasn't everything solved with WeChat? She had felt so sad earlier over nothing.

"Shuyao, quick, let's exchange WeChats." Ji Nian hurriedly took out her phone.

Liang Jie also pulled out her phone and showed her QR code arrogantly. "Ahem, I've given pretty obvious hints."

Ji Nian nodded with a smile and scanned her code, giving an OK gesture. "Great, we can chat on WeChat if anything comes up."

On Shen Shuyao's side, she added Ji Nian's WeChat and set up her contact info. Shyly, she said, "Done."

Ji Nian advised earnestly, "Shuyao, we must keep in frequent touch."

"I'll make a group chat so we can all talk there." Liang Jie immediately created a WeChat group.

After adding the female lead's WeChat, Ji Nian felt much more secure. She would definitely log in every day to maintain her presence. The female lead had too many people around her. Ji Nian had to seize every opportunity.

They chatted for a bit in the group before Ji Nian worried about getting back too late. She went upstairs first to pack her belongings into her luggage.

Once everything was ready, she brought her suitcase downstairs. The director had a car waiting outside already.

Everyone saw her off at the door. Liang Jie even gave her a hug. "Ji Nian, hopefully we can collaborate again in the future."

"Okay."

Shen Shuyao was also reluctant to part. Shyly she said, "Safe travels."

Ji Nian took the initiative to hug the female lead. "I'll pester you daily on WeChat. Don't get annoyed then."

Shen Shuyao returned the hug. With a smile she said, "I'll wait for it."

"Okay."

Ji Nian put her luggage in the trunk and got in the car. She lowered the window, waved her hand, and called out, "I'm off, goodbye!"

"Safe travels!" Zhou Sheng shouted vigorously.
