Chapter 345  : 11m Late!

Quinn said, “I’ve released the news that the male and female leads of this stage play are you and Audrey. The students are very excited. As there are too many people signing up, and I can’t make the decision alone, I thought of letting you and Miss Audrey come to school today to personally choose.”

“No problem.” Eric agreed immediately. “We can choose actors later.”

The three of them watched the students rehearse for a while longer. After half an hour, Quinn looked at his watch and smiled. “Okay, it’s about time. We can get started.”

After the students on the stage left the stage, Quinn picked up his phone and sent a message. Soon, a large group of exquisitely dressed students rushed in from outside.

“Oh! What a shock!” Quinn stood up and looked at the group of young faces. “I didn’t expect so many people to sign up for this show!”

The students grinned and came over before looking curiously at Audley and Eric.

Audrey was a famous female celebrity in the entertainment industry. As a director, Eric was also famous in the entertainment industry. Hence, many people’s gazes landed on the two of them.

Many students grinned as they went to Audrey and asked for her autograph. Audrey didn’t reject them and agreed to them one by one.

Seeing the hundreds of students surrounding the auditorium, Eric couldn’t help but clear his throat. Then, he diverted everyone’s attention at the right time and said, “Alright! We’ll officially choose the actors in ten minutes.

Everyone, get ready!”

Upon seeing this, the students left Audrey’s side.

“If you sign all of them, you probably won’t be able to finish signing them until tomorrow.” Eric stood beside Audrey and said in a low voice, “For the rest of the time, just sit and watch.”

Audrey looked up at Eric in surprise. When she saw his gentle expression, she couldn’t help but be stunned.

Audrey suppressed the strange feeling in her heart and sat down with a smile.

The process of choosing actors this time was very simple. Eric first let them perform on stage in batches, improvising a scene of any television drama.

Soon, Eric eliminated most of the people through this method.

There were fewer and fewer students in the auditorium. The smile on Quinn’s face did not fade as he said, “Eric, after all these years, you’re still as picky as ever.”

“We have to choose better actors,” Eric said. “After all, it’s impossible to get so many actors for a small stage play.”

“Ah! I’m sorry! I’m late!” Just as the screening process was about to end, a girl arrived late.

Everyone looked at the door curiously and saw a young girl with exquisite looks but dressed very ordinarily running in.

Eric frowned slightly, but Quinn laughed. “Becky, you’re late.”

Audrey looked at the girl curiously.

Becky walked to Quinn and the others apologetically and bowed deeply. “I’m really sorry. I was delayed on the way just now. May I ask if I can still audition now?”

Quinn looked at Eric and said, “Becky is one of the top students in the same batch. She’s very talented in acting. Why don’t you let her try?”

Becky’s eyes were beautiful. Her beautiful eyes had already noticed Eric’s presence when she entered the auditorium.

“Senior Eric!” Becky shouted energetically. “I’ve always been a fan of yours. I’m so lucky to meet you here!”

A faint smile appeared on Eric’s face. “There are still a few people auditioning for the role. Go and queue behind them.”

“Okay!” Becky skipped off behind the scenes.

“She’s quite lively,” Audrey commented sincerely as she watched Becky leave.

“Yeah, just like you,” Eric said suddenly.

“What?” Audrey thought she had heard wrongly. She looked up curiously at Eric, but Eric’s gaze was fixed on the person on the stage.

Ten minutes later, it was Becky’s turn to go on stage.

“Her personality is quite suitable for Juliet.” Quinn stood beside Eric and smiled.

“Personality doesn’t mean anything,” Eric said. “I have a better choice for the female lead.”

Of course, Quinn knew who Eric was referring to..
