After dinner, they went to their room. Su Yuchen had a long and hot shower and Xin Mei read a magazine while waiting for him.
Su Yuchen returned to the bedroom and laid down on the bed. He looked very fatigued.
"Chen, why are you working so hard?" Xin Mei lovingly combed his hairs with her fingers. She leaned over him. "We already have enough money. You don"t need to work harder. You are looking so tired."
Su Yuchen smiled when he heard the concern in her voice. Finally, he had someone who worried about him.
It had been a year that they were married and till today, Su Yuchen liked this feeling whenever Xin Mei worried or concerned for him. It made him feel very happy and relaxed.
Su Yuchen took her palm in his and lovingly kissed over it. "Mei, when I started to study business in school, I was taught that the most important objective of a businessman was to provide jobs to many employees and to give them a regular income and bonus, and I am doing the same."
Su Yuchen sighed and placed his head on her lap. He looked at her with love-stuck eyes.
"Mei, Su corporation has many big collaborations coming and if I am successful in cracking a beneficial deal then we all will get a very good income. My shareholders, employees, everyone. Now that so many people are dependent on me, how can I lag? That"s why I am working a little hard."
Xin Mei smiled when she heard him. "How can you be so good?"
"Because you reside in my heart." Xin Mei smiled when she heard him.
She still remembered that he had said her the same words when they had visited the orphanage. She had not believed his words at that time but now she knew he always loved her.
"Oh, Chen." She took a deep breath and leaned toward him. She lightly kissed his lips and that kiss led them to end on the bed, rolling in the arms of one another.
For the next few days, Su Yuchen was very busy, super-duper busy. He had very little time for Xin Mei. He left early from the home and arrived late at night. Su Zixin had also noticed this absence.
The thing which bugged Xin Mei the most was that, most of the time, he visited the clubs at the name of meeting the client. Another thing which bugged her was that she had sniffed some feminine fragranced perfume on his coat which was not hers.
"Chen, are you meeting some female client nowadays?" Xin Mei asked. She had enough of smelling the female perfume from his coat.
"Mei, are you still not done with your audition? You are still doubting on me without any use." Su Yuchen chided her.
Xin Mei pouted. She thought maybe she was getting extra engrossed in her role and had started to doubt on Su Yuchen.
"So, tell me, when are you going for an audition?"
"Today." Xin Mei smiled and looked at him.
"Okay then, after coming home we will both celebrate another role in your bag."
"And what if I did not receive the role?"
"Then we will do the sob party?" Su Yuchen chuckled.
"Sob Party?"
"Yeah, a party to cheer up your mood." Xin Mei smiled when she heard him. "By the way, I am sure you will get this role. Who would dare to reject you? Huh?"
"There are many stupid directors and producers."
"Then you don"t need to work for stupid them."
Su Yuchen and Xin Mei had their breakfast before they made their way toward their respective destinations.
Xin Mei arrived at the studio where the audition was taking place. She met TingTing there. TingTing gave her a heads up for the audition. She also looked at Xin Mei who performed some scenes for her, making her feel satisfied.
The studio where the audition was taking place didn"t have many candidates. Only five actresses were present including Xin Mei. All the actresses were specially invited for the audition.
"Look who is here? Xin Mei is here; the best actress is here."
Xin Mei rolled her eyes when she heard the voice of another candidate, Ning Xiao. Xin Mei had thought that her career in the film industry would go smoothly but how could she forget about Ning Xiao.
"Senior Ning, why did I not think that you will also try for this audition?" Xin Mei smiled sarcastically.
"Try? I am winning this role." Ning Xiao spoke with att.i.tude and confidence. "Good advice from me to you, go back home and stop thinking about this audition. I do not want people gossiping that the best actress lost the role because of a mere actress like me."
Ning Xiao mocked Xin Mei before walking towards her manager and two a.s.sistants. Ning Xiao angrily asked her a.s.sistants to clean the already cleared bench.
"I hate this Yang Lin and the artists under her. They all had so much att.i.tude." TingTing glared at Yang Lin, the manager of Ning Xiao. "No big deal if Yang Lin had asked Ning Xiao to sleep with the producer of this movie to get the role."
"We will know that in some time." Xin Mei looked at Ning Xiao who sat on her seat with a full att.i.tude.
Ning Xiao had so much att.i.tude and this was the reason no one liked her. Her fans had also left her side after seeing what a b**** she was.
Xin Mei was called for the audition. She entered inside the audition room and only one director and one producer were present. She was simply asked to do a small role and she did it with much perfection.
"Miss Xin, we are impressed with your acting. Please wait for our final decision." Xin Mei bowed to the judging panel. She turned and walked out of the room.
Outside, TingTing was waiting for her. "So, how was the audition?"
"I don"t think I will get the role." Xin Mei shrugged her shoulders and glared at Ning Xiao.
