Chapter 219
“Is it possible that because you were a dispensable figurant, the audience was not paying attention to you at all?” Marina said slowly.
Hearing this, Jason immediately stopped raising his left leg
Then, he slowly turned his head and stared at Marina with an aggrieved expression.
His eyes instantly turned red.
Marina was quite embarrassed.
“Hey–hey–hey, don’t cry. I haven’t hit you!” Marina quickly raised her hand, trying to stop him from crying.
However, when Jason heard her words, he could no longer hold back his tears.
They kept falling.
As he cried, even his nasal mucus came out.
Marina, who had wanted to comfort him, instantly retracted her hand.
Jason was crying aloud.
“I didn’t want to be just a figurant, either. I also want to play a role that has lines and can appear in the camera alone.,
“But those assistant directors don’t think much of me.
“Some of them took a fancy to me and wanted me to offer myself to them, but I didn’t want to!
“How could such a pure, innocent, and handsome young man as me do such a dirty thing?
“But what should I do? If I don’t offer myself to them, I can only continue to play those roles that have no lines and whose faces can’t appear in the
camera.
“Then I won’t be able to extricate myself from miserable circumstances for the rest of my life.
“If so, then I… Boohoo…” When Jason said this, he cried even louder.
Looking at Jason, Marina frowned.
“To be honest, seeing that you are so miserable now, I think you should change your profession.” Marina felt that her suggestion was practicable.
However, after Jason heard this, his nasal mucus bubbles became even bigger.
Marina couldn’t bear it anymore.
“Can you wipe away.. Marina felt that her eyes were hurting.
Jason seemed to be good tempered. He obediently turned his head to look for tissues.
However, after searching for some time, he could not find any tissue.
Then, he looked at Marina.
“Don’t look at me. I haven’t brought any tissues with me.”
Then Jason’s gaze fell on the skirt Marina was wearing.
“Don’t even think about it!” Just now, she felt that this little chatterbox was a little pitiful.

But looking at him now, she thought that he clearly deserved what he got.
He even wanted to use her clothes to wipe away his nasal mucus.
As soon as Jason was rejected, his eyes turned even redder.
“Don’t you have your own clothes? Wipe away your tears and nasal mucus with your own clothes!” Marina frowned.
“But my clothes are rented. After the event, I have to return them. I can’t get them dirty.” Jason sobbed.
Marina could say nothing.
She could not help but roll her eyes at him. Then, she called for one of the waiters in the venue.
She asked the waiter to bring them a packet of tissues.
Then, she threw the tissues to Jason.
“Hurry up and clean your ugly face.” Marina was very regretful now. She should have told him to get lost as soon as he began to talk.
This way, she wouldn’t have to sit here and listen to a young man cry to her about how miserable his life was.
She did not know why she was so unlucky today.
“Thank you,” Jason said while choking.
Then, he took out a tissue and blew his nose hard with it.
Marina didn’t want to say anything.
Was this man still dreaming of becoming the best actor?
Did he believe that it would be extremely easy for him to be a winner of the best actor award?

“You look very young. You should still be in school, right? Students should focus on their studies. Don’t always be blinded by the fake prosperity.” It was rare for Marina to give someone any advice.
“But I can’t go to school…”
“You can’t? What do you mean?” Marina frowned.
“My family…” Jason still hadn’t recovered from his sadness.
Hence, he still choked while speaking.
And Marina automatically imagined what hadn’t been said by him.
“Your family doesn’t allow you to go to school, does it?”
When Jason heard this, he looked at her. After thinking for a moment, he nodded.
“You can say so.
His family didn’t allow him to offer himself as a candidate for admission to any film and television colleges, which was equivalent to not allowing him to
go to school, right?
“If you’re short of money, I can sponsor you.” Marina just wanted him to quickly shut up and stop crying.
“No, thank you. I have signed a contract with the company. If I breach the contract, I’ll have to pay liquidated damages.” Jason shook his head.
Marina was about to say that she could help him terminate the contract.

Chapte? 219
She saw Jason suddenly standing up from his chair with a whoosh.
She was a little stunned by his sudden actions.
She looked up at him in a daze.
“I won’t give up. A man can’t say that he is incapable!”
“A man can’t say that he is tired, either! Although I’ve played more than three hundred roles, none of them has a single line.
“But I will never give up. I will use my strong willpower to continue fighting.
“One day, I will definitely be able to stand in front of the camera and say a line!” Jason was full of vigor.
The first part of his words made Marina quite excited.
However, when she heard his final sentence, the corners of her lips could not help but twitch.
“It’s really a great idea.”
“Really? You also think that I can succeed, right?” Jason could not hear the sarcasm in Marina’s tone at all.
Marina was speechless.
“Is he mentally handicapped?
“Does Peter never refuse anyone who wants to sign a contract?
“He even signed a contract with such a person!”
“I think that a successful man should at least not cry like that in front of strangers,” Marina said lightly.
Jason didn’t know how to reply.
“By the way, please tell me your contact information,” Marina said again.
“I have a business card!” Hearing this, Jason immediately took out a business card from his pocket.
There were his name and phone number on the card, and there was a photo of himself printed on its back.
Marina didn’t know what to say.
“As soon as I entered the entertainment industry, I had a hundred thousand business cards printed for myself. Every time I see a producer or a director, I give a business card to him or her.
“I believe that there will always be a director who can discover my beauty!” Jason was especially satisfied with his masterpiece.
“Yes, I did discover it. After all, you’ve played more than 300 roles.” Marina really didn’t want to take the business card.
However, looking at the young face in front of her, she gritted her teeth and took it.
She said in her mind, “Forget about it.
“At least this face is good looking.
“I just have to bear it for a while.”
When Jason heard what Marina had said, his eyes swelled a little.
“have something else to do, so I’ll leave now. Have a good time.” Seeing that this little chatterbox was about to cry again, Marina immediately stood up and prepared to leave.
She did not want her ears to suffer with her again.
“Hey, but you haven’t told me your name yet!” Jason shouted to Marina.
However, Marina did not even turn around.
