Although the role Qin Huan gave might not even be the second or third male lead, Nan Jin still solemnly expressed that he would cherish this opportunity. “Can I take this script back to read?” Nan Jin asked cautiously.
Even though he had only skimmed through the script in his hand in this limited time, he could still feel the delicate emotions that had appeared in the few strokes of the character just now and the plot that he could already empathize with.
Qin Huan nodded indifferently. “That script is commonly used for auditions. Take it back and think about it.”
“Give me a contact number for the audition later. I’ll get my a.s.sistant to send the details to you.”
With that, Qin Huan stood up and prepared to leave.
Director w.a.n.g had kept Nan Jin around to talk about this, so he naturally didn’t have any work to do. The two of them went downstairs on the way.
“Where are you going? Shall I bring you along?” Qin Huan asked casually.
How could Nan Jin have the cheek to let this big shot bring him along? “There’s no need, thank you, Senior.”
The two of them were not talkative people, so they didn’t talk much on the way down.
Fortunately, it didn’t take long to take the elevator from upstairs to the first floor. Therefore, the awkwardness that he was about to feel disappeared the moment the elevator door opened.
After walking out of the elevator and arriving at the company’s main entrance, Qin Huan stopped and pointed at the car waiting for him in the distance.
“Then I’ll leave first. We’ll talk about the audition later.”
“Alright,” Nan Jin agreed.
This time, he came to look for Nan Jin on the way. Thinking that Xian Yu still had a meal waiting for him, Qin Huan didn’t delay and turned to walk towards his car.
However, when Qin Huan walked over and opened the car door, he happened to see Xian Yu retreating from his seat and returning to his side. From his posture, he seemed to be peeking before he walked over.
“What are you looking at?” Qin Huan sat in the car and asked casually.
Xian Yu narrowed his eyes. “I keep feeling that this person looks a little familiar.”
He looked past Qin Huan at the man who was gradually walking away.
Unfortunately, he was sitting in the car, and with the restriction of the gla.s.s and distance, he couldn’t see clearly.
Xian Yu’s words reminded Qin Huan of the familiar feeling he had towards Nan Jin, but he didn’t think too much about it.
“Perhaps you’ve seen him somewhere before. After all, the circle is only so big.”
Qin Huan didn’t care. “Have you asked Tang Huai? Does he want to have a meal together? I haven’t seen him in a long time.”
“I remember that his compet.i.tion should have ended.”
Although they were not in the same field, the few of them had grown up together. Qin Huai had always been very concerned about Tang Huai’s situation. He knew that after this compet.i.tion ended, he had no other arrangements.
As soon as the topic was changed, Xian Yu’s attention, which was not focused to begin with, immediately strayed far away.
“It’s really hard for you to remember him.” Xian Yu lay back in his seat.
The a.s.sistant who acted as the chauffeur in the front seat slowly started the car again. As their speed increased, they blended into the traffic and watched the countless scenery around them fly past.
Xian Yu pointed at his phone that had just ended. “You weren’t around just now, so I asked him. He’s not coming.”
“No reason?” Qin Huan asked.
“Didn’t say.”
Xian Yu shrugged and didn’t pay much attention.
It was most likely because he wanted his racing car.
He only thought that Tang Huai was focused on practicing in preparation for the next match. For a moment, he didn’t think too much about it. After all, the other party would usually miss nine out of ten meals.
“…” Qin Huan frowned but didn’t say anything. He only wanted to call Tang Huai when he was free to ask about the situation.
Xian Yu also stopped moving. He only propped his arm up and looked at the sky outside the car window. The sky was clear and blue. There was not even a single cloud to be seen, making him feel especially comfortable.
“It’s a pity not to hold a concert in this weather,” he sighed.
Unlike the weather that had been unpredictable some time ago and occasionally had a storm, the weather forecast during this period of time was rare and accurate.
In the forecast of a sunny day for the next few days this year, the heavens were in a good mood.
Under the cloudless sky, even the sunlight seemed to soften a little. The temperature was even less scorching.
It was a kind of sky that made people feel that it was a pity that they couldn’t do anything.
With this thought in mind, Murong Qiao flipped through the calendar on her phone and realized that three days had pa.s.sed since the day she moved.
She was almost done unpacking, but she didn’t seem to have celebrated the move.
She recalled that when An Nuo moved out first, she had been nagging about having another meal together. However, even after she moved out, the other party didn’t ask about it. This time, it was Murong Qiao who took the initiative to call her to ask.
Not long after the phone beeped, the sound of the call being picked up came from the other end. However, the background sound that entered Murong Qiao’s ears first sounded like she was in a mall.
“h.e.l.lo—?” An Nuo’s voice came from the other end of the cell phone.
Murong Qiao said, “It’s me. I’m almost done moving here. Shall we have a meal together?”
“Qiao?” An Nuo recognized Murong Qiao’s voice.
Then, there was suddenly no movement on the other end. After a few seconds, she heard An Nuo’s voice on the other end of the cell phone again. However, it was much quieter this time.
“I was shopping in the supermarket just now,” An Nuo explained before returning to the main topic.
“I didn’t even know about your move…”
She said it casually, her tone filled with frustration.
Murong Qiao’s lips curved. “It was also a last-minute decision. I moved in a hurry.”
“How about coming to my house for dinner tonight? I’ll buy some ingredients and we’ll have hotpot together,” she suggested.
An Nuo agreed very quickly. “It just so happens that I’m at the supermarket now. What ingredients do you lack? I’ll bring them over together.”
The two of them were used to living together in the past. Now that she said this, they felt like they had returned to the past.
Murong Qiao got up and went to her new kitchen in her slippers to take a look.
Speaking of which, after she moved into this house, Huo Yichen had helped her clean up most of her things. If she really had to talk about what was at home, Huo Yichen probably knew better than her.
Murong Qiao opened the fridge and looked at the things inside. She picked out some ingredients that she, Huo Yichen, and An Nuo liked and told the other party.
Hearing the list Murong Qiao mentioned, An Nuo couldn’t remember so much for a moment. Hence, she pulled out the memos on her cell phone and prepared to write them down one by one. Her attention was immediately focused on the phone screen, and she didn’t sense the man approaching her from behind.
Murong Chen originally wanted to rest and buy some things to settle tonight’s dinner. He didn’t expect to meet An Nuo at the supermarket again.
The two of them were neighbors after all. He wanted to go over and greet her, but he heard the other party whispering something. When he leaned closer behind him, he vaguely heard the voice of his Little Sister.
“There’s not much of a lack of vegetables. We might need some meat and meatb.a.l.l.s. I’ll be in charge of the rest. You can choose what you like to eat.” Murong Qiao concluded.
An Nuo agreed and planned to end the call. Just as she was about to buy something, she turned around and almost b.u.mped into a “wall”.
She was shocked and let out a cry like a frightened rabbit. When she looked up, she met Murong Chen’s gaze.
“It’s been a long time..’1
