A girl next to Xia Weiwei spoke, “Weiwei, you are so mean, that’s where the head director and scriptwriters have their meetings. If your sister barges in now, isn’t it akin to suicide?”
“Yeah, and I heard that the top boss and investors are there as well today. The director for this drama is the eccentric Yang Jin who has a peculiar temper. Your sister is going to have real trouble if she steps in.”
Xia Weiwei shrugged. “I want her pride to be stepped on. Does she really think she can audition for the lead role? What a fool. She’s overestimating herself.”
Thus, Xia Yangyang made it to the doorway of the meeting room and just walked in.
However, after only two steps, Xia Yangyang froze on the spot.
What was happening in the conference room with all the people seated in a row?
A group of people were in front of a large screen, where a live screening of the auditioning footage from another room was being played.
Upon hearing footsteps at the entrance, everyone turned to look at Xia Yangyang.
Xia Yangyang was dumbfounded for quite a while. She quickly apologized, “Sorry, I got the wrong room.”
Having said that, she was about to leave.
“Wait a minute.” A hurried clear voice called out from behind her.
Xia Yangyang stopped in her tracks. A middle-aged man with a beard had quickly walked up to her.
He scrutinized Xia Yangyang from top to bottom, and while nodding, there seemed to be a look of surprise in his eyes.
He then turned around and said, “Xiao Hong, look. Doesn’t she resemble the ‘Lin Xiaofan’ from your script?”
A lady with thick glasses also walked over, studying Xia Yangyang as if she were some kind of treasure. “She fits the character perfectly, and she’s attractive. Director Yang, you have such a keen eye. We haven’t seen anyone better than her throughout the entire audition process.”
Director Yang slapped his thigh, “She’s the one! The lead actress for Cinderella’s Magic Love Tale.”
Xia Yangyang was utterly dumbfounded. Could somebody please tell her what the hell they were talking about?
Director Yang turned around and asked, “What’s your name? If there are no issues, pick up the script and sign the contract this afternoon.”
Although Xia Yangyang wasn’t quite sure what was going on, she knew that there must certainly be a misunderstanding.
Xia Yangyang explained, “I’m not here to audition. You’ve got the wrong idea.” “If you’re not here for the audition, then why are you here?”
“I’m here to find someone.”
“Who are you looking for?”
“She’s here to find me.” A deep, magnetic male voice came from a not-so-far distance in the room.
Xia Yangyang looked over and saw a man. He was dressed in a suit and his handsome face radiated an exceptional aura.
The man leisurely walked up to Xia Yangyang, “Miss Xia Yangyang?”
Xia Yangyang mechanically nodded her head, wondering how this stranger knew her name.
“Please follow me.” The man lead Xia Yangyang out of the room.
Xia Yangyang followed the man to a terrace at the end of the corridor.
Along the way, she gathered countless gazes.
The moment they passed Xia Weiwei, everyone was enveloped by a disbelief.
Even on such a short route, expressions of shock, envy, and jealousy were prevalent.
As these girls watched the retreating figure of the man, their eyes were filled with utter admiration, shy curiosities, and fear.
The terrace was quiet, distinguished from the bustling corridor by a glass door.
Xia Yangyang spoke first. “Is this Mr. Shen?”
The man reached out to her, “Shen Shichuan, nice to meet you, Miss Xia.”
Xia Yangyang stretched out her hand for a shake, then casually asked, “How do you know my name?”
Xia Yangyang remembered from the time of the accident, she had not introduced herself.
The man explained, “You are Xia Liangdong’s daughter, it’s natural that I would recognize you.”
As her father was mentioned, Xia Yangyang was taken aback.
The man no longer kept her guessing. “I am the president of Time Entertainment, and your father is a predecessor whom I respect.”
With those words, Xia Yangyang quickly understood what was happening..
