After going through the script twice, Mo Ning was even more sure that this was what she wanted as her next movie. She took her phone from the table in front of the sofa she was currently lying on and then dialled Leng Manyun's number; she answered after the third ring.
" Hello sister Manyun. " There was some shuffling in the background and then loud breathing sounds before she heard Leng Manyun's voice.
" Hello Xiao Ning, what's up? "
" You sound busy should I call you back later when you're less busy? " Mo Ning asked unsure whether to just tell her what she wanted to say and then hang up or if she should just call her back some other time.
" No.. No there's no need I was just doing a little clean up don't worry why did you call? "
" Oh. I called to tell you that I've picked the next movie I want to act in." Mo Ning said her excitement evident in her voice.
"That's great. What movie did you pick? Let me guess, you picked Chen Nian. Am I right or wrong? "
" You're right. " Mo Ning said in mock annoyance. " How can you steal my thunder like that? "
" That's not my fault, it's yours for being so predictable. Anyone can tell that you would want to act in a movie where you are domineering more than being a white Lotus. "
" It's okay sister Manyun, you make it sound like I'm a man and not a lady. "
" Hey! Hey! Don't be a cry baby, back to the main point, you have to prepare very well, everyone thinks this movie has the possibility of winning an award so many people want to have a piece of the pie. "
" Yes that's right I have to prepare for the audition very well and since I have a month, it's perfect. I'm so in love with the movie that I'm willing to do anything to be Chen Nian. "
" Alright that's the spirit. You just focus on preparing for the audition I'll sign you up for it and take care of every other thing. And don't forget that you have to go shoot the promotional pictures for << a day with you >> next week Tuesday and I also arranged a little ad for you and they'll start shooting next week Friday I'll send you the script later but the rest of the time, I want you to focus on that audition. "
" I got it sister Manyun stop nagging already I'll leave you to your cleaning, I'll go start my preparation for my audition. " After saying her piece, Mo Ning hung up the phone and returned it to its previous position on the table.
She picked up the script to continue going through it when her stomach suddenly gave a loud rumble. Damn! She forgot she hadn't eaten anything since morning, she opened the curtain to take a peek outside, it was already getting dark. Deciding to just look for something simple to eat, she went to the kitchen to make herself some noodles.
Maybe I should start setting alarms for my meals. She thought while getting some eggs and tomatoes from the fridge.
