“They probably won’t hire me.” Su Qianxun knew very well that Qiao Yiren and Su Manni would not allow that to happen.
“No, I gave your name to them, and the other party has agreed to let you attend the audition,” Ke Ran said.
“Really?” Su Qianxun blinked and looked at Ke Ran in disbelief.
“Of course, but the pay isn’t high. It’s only twenty thousand RMB for the entire drama. Would you be willing to take the job?” Ke Ran hesitated a little. Truthfully speaking, it was a serious waste for someone with such talent and good looks to act as a servant girl in a drama.
“It’s all right. As long as the director wants to hire me, I’m definitely willing to play the role!” Su Qianxun was currently very short on money, so she was happy to go as long as she could earn more money.
“All right then, just wait for my call. I’ll bring you along when I go for my audition.” Ke Ran smiled.
Su Qianxun thanked Ke Ran. Only when cla.s.s started did everyone stop crowding around Qiao Yiren and settle down. Qiao Yiren found a seat and sat down.
During a break between cla.s.ses, Su Qianxun contacted Aunt Zhang, a servant who used to work for the Su family. Aunt Zhang had practically watched her and Su Jiye grow up. When the Su family fell from grace, Aunt Zhang did not want to go back at first, and offered to continue taking care of Su Qianxun and her younger brother.
At that time, Su Qianxun had firmly rejected the offer. She and her younger brother were kicked out from the family without being given a single penny. Both of them had no place to go and she could not let Aunt Zhang suffer with them.
When Aunt Zhang received Su Qianxun’s phone call, she was extremely excited and emotional. She kept asking how she and Su Jiye were doing, and said that she had even dreamt of them in her sleep.
Su Qianxun almost could not hold back her tears. In this world, there were truly too little people who were genuine and sincere toward her and her younger brother, and Aunt Zhang was definitely one of them.
She explained things to Aunt Zhang for a while, and Aunt Zhang did not even ask any questions. She merely asked Su Qianxun when she should come over.
Su Qianxun noticed that Aunt Zhang did not even ask about her salary. She truly felt grateful. She asked Aunt Zhang to come over on Sunday, and told her that she would pick her up at the bus station.
Aunt Zhang happily agreed. Su Qianxun sighed in relief after she ended the phone call. There was now one less burden in her mind.
‘It’s time to work hard to earn money now so that I can take good care of my younger brother and pay Aunt Zhang the salary she deserves.’
Xia Chuxi was there as well when Su Qianxun returned to the lecture hall. Since he was the director of a production company, he was naturally surrounded by many people. Qiao Yiren was holding his arm with an arrogant look on her face.
Su Qianxun returned to her own seat and saw two boxes of dessert on her table. A logo was printed on top of both boxes, and Su Qianxun recognized the brand. This was the only brand of dessert the members of the Su family ate.
“Qianxun, do give them a try! These are pastries from Fragrant Cloud Bakery. Not only are they expensive, but they are also very hard to obtain. Miss Qiao’s fiancé is seriously amazing to be able to buy so many boxes of them in such a short period of time.” Ke Ran was eating the dessert Xia Chuxi brought.
Su Qianxun immediately took the two boxes before her and gave them to Ke Ran and Bai Weimi. “You guys can have these, I’m not really into this type of dessert.”
“Ah, that’s such a shame! They taste really good, and they’re not fattening either.” Bai Weimi did not bother to put on a polite front and took the boxes of dessert from Su Qianxun.
When Xia Chuxi saw that Su Qianxun had given away the dessert he brought without any hesitation, a hint of annoyance flashed across his eyes. This young woman was truly becoming more and more ungracious.
Qiao Yiren noticed that Su Qianxun had once again attracted Xia Chuxi’s attention. She furrowed her eyebrows gloomily and deliberately leaned her head against Xia Chuxi’s shoulder. “Chuxi, I’m feeling a bit dizzy.”
“Why do you feel dizzy? Have you been dieting again recently? I’ve already told you that you aren’t fat. Next time, don’t do this behind my back. My heart will ache for you if you’re starving.” Xia Chuxi looked at her with a gentle expression.
Everyone were extremely envious of their sweet interaction. They kept talking about how Qiao Yiren had a really good life. Not only did she come from a rich family, but she was also beautiful with good acting skills. Moreover, she had such a considerate and caring fiancé; she was really winning in life!
