In fact, after Tang Feng left, Dong Bingbing regretted it!
Her personality was extremely strong-willed; otherwise, she wouldn't have earned the nickname 'Dong Sir.' She was always known for her bold actions and straightforward speech. However, today, she was unexpectedly cornered by Tang Feng's provocation and even agreed to sing one of his songs to prove that she was suitable for his web series.
Initially, she had only intended to tease him because she was upset that he didn't recognize her. How could she really be interested in his web series?
But now, she found herself in a difficult position. At first, she just wanted to tease Tang Feng, never expecting it to turn out this way. For some reason, she, who was known for her rationality, had been outwitted by a young upstart.
Although she clearly knew that Tang Feng's method of proving himself was a trap, she couldn't resist falling into it. Even though she could back out at any time, would that still be the Dong Bingbing she knew?
At first, she had thought that Tang Feng had once had a crush on her and that the song 'Miss Dong' was written with her as the inspiration. However, when he didn't recognize her that day, it created a huge gap in her heart, making her act like a little girl, refusing to let it go.
"Brat! I don't believe anything can stump me!" Dong Bingbing muttered to herself, her delicate nose twitching slightly.
On the other side, Tang Feng hummed a tune and walked back home with a light step. So what if she was a famous actress? He had still managed to dig a hole for her to fall into.
Tang Feng was well aware of his own limitations. She was a renowned actress with a status and popularity far beyond his reach. He had no ulterior motives, and besides, she was definitely a siren. If he hadn't taken a desperate gamble, he might have been the one cornered.
The idea of having Dong Bingbing sing one of his songs to prove her suitability for his web series was a spontaneous countermeasure to get out of the situation. It was a joke to think that a web series with such a small budget could attract an actress of her caliber. The media, always eager for sensational news, would never let such a juicy story go.
Moreover, everyone else in the web series, except for him as the screenwriter and producer, was a fresh-faced newcomer. Who knew if the series could even be completed with a top actress suddenly joining the cast?
His intention was to make Dong Bingbing back out, but for some reason, he felt a hint of anticipation. The thought of the usually aloof and glamorous Dong Bingbing singing his song was too exciting and explosive!
Tang Feng's speed was still quite fast. Looking at the written music and lyrics, he couldn't help but smile oddly.
...
"What? You're going to act in that Tang Feng's web series? No way, absolutely not! It's completely out of character for you! Bingbing, didn't you say you were just teasing that guy? Why are you suddenly taking it seriously?" Cao Yang's reaction was intense, and a hint of worry crept into his heart. Could it be that Bingbing had really taken a liking to that guy? Otherwise, why had she, who was usually so rational, made such inexplicable decisions since he appeared?
"Cao Jie, web series can be fun too. Let's just treat it as a play. I've never acted in this type of show before!" Dong Bingbing said casually, but in her heart, she cursed Tang Feng repeatedly. If it weren't for him, she wouldn't have to explain herself to Cao Yang.
"Bingbing, you know better than anyone how hard you've worked, how many tears you've shed, and how difficult it has been to reach your current status. Last time, you said he was your junior, so helping him once was fine. But if you really participate in his web series, how will the media portray it?"
"As a new rising actress, you have so many offers. Even the smallest investment is dozens of times larger than his web series. But you're going to take on this web series, and it's the work of your rumored love interest. Do you want everyone to think there's something between you?" Cao Yang said earnestly.
"Cao Jie, I've made up my mind! Besides, I'm just making a cameo. It's not as serious as you make it sound! Can't a senior help a junior? As for the media, they've said I was kept by someone before." Dong Bingbing said insincerely.
"Bingbing, you..." As Dong Bingbing's agent, Cao Yang knew her personality well. Once she made a decision, nothing could change her mind. But this time, it really couldn't happen. What was a web series? In Cao Yang's eyes, it was something that couldn't be taken seriously. How could a top actress participate in it? That would be a step down. Although he knew she wouldn't listen, he still wanted to try to persuade her.
But before Cao Yang could speak, the doorbell rang.
Cao Yang's face changed. He had found the place where Dong Bingbing lived, and only a few people knew about it. Normally, no one would come to see her, so his face changed.
"It must be that guy!" Before Cao Yang could say anything, Dong Bingbing muttered and stood up to walk to the door.
Cao Yang looked at Dong Bingbing in surprise. At that moment, Dong Bingbing showed a side of herself that Cao Yang had never seen before, a more girlish demeanor.
"That guy? Could it be..." Cao Yang came to his senses, his face turning dark with a surge of anger. The next moment confirmed his suspicions.
"This is my agent, Cao Jie. Cao Jie, you should know him, Tang Feng!" With Cao Yang present, Dong Bingbing was different from before, less aloof and more genuine.
"Hello!"
"Hello!"
The two exchanged polite greetings. Cao Yang, who disliked Tang Feng, naturally didn't show any good face, and Tang Feng didn't want to force himself. So they didn't engage in further conversation.
"Give it to me!" Dong Bingbing suddenly extended her hand.
"Uh!" Tang Feng smiled bitterly, thinking to himself, this woman is truly a siren. You can never guess what she'll do next.
Tang Feng placed the paper with the lyrics and music in Dong Bingbing's fair hand but still said, "Why don't you think it over again?"
"No need!" Dong Bingbing resumed her aloof demeanor, and the hint of sympathy in Tang Feng's heart disappeared. He thought to himself, I've warned you. If you don't appreciate it, it's not my fault.
But thinking about the usually aloof Dong Bingbing singing his song, Tang Feng felt a bit excited. The scene was something to look forward to.
