Chapter 67. Break"Ah, I am too tired!"
Ren thought as he gulped down the water from the bottle in his hands.
His clothes were drenched in sweat as he had just came back from his morning exercise.
Before he knew it, his morning exercise had became a part of his daily life. He felt unwilling to do it at first but now it had became a habit of him.
"You should go and take a shower."
As he was drinking water, his mother entered the house with a happy expression.
"I was planning to take one. By the way, where was you so early in the morning?"
"I was talking to the neighbours for a bit. We were talking about the reality show you featured in."
Ren smiled awkwardly when he heard that. He knew that the "talking" his mother was talking about was more of a bragging but he choose to ignore it.
"Don"t you have to go to the company today?"
His mother said as she sat down in front of him.
"No, I have a break today."
Ren have a rare break from his schedule today. As he was going to be busy because of his drama from now on, Jiang Wan decided to gave him and White bear a holiday.
"It"s rare for you to get breaks. You are not planning to go out today."
"No, I will just stay in my room."
Ren said that as he shook his head. Even if he wanted to go out, he would have to disguise himself as many people will recognise him on the street especially because of Whiz stars that premiered yesterday.
He can"t even go out to jog without wearing his sungla.s.ses and hoodie nowadays.
"It"s good to stay in your room but it"s also okay to go out and made some friends. You still don"t have a girlfriend, right. I can introduce you to someone if you want…"
"Mother! I told you I don"t want to date anyone right now."
Ren said as he scratched his head. The reason he was not thinking about being in a relations.h.i.+p was because his career was still young.
He wanted to focus more on his career at least for now. As for dating and marriage, he can do that when he falls in love with someone.
"I know, I know but I am getting many proposals for you these days."
"Really?"
"Yeah, My son is a star now, of course there will be girls interested in you."Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
"I am just a rookie actor for now."
"I don"t think rookie actors can come in reality shows and even feature as a male lead in a drama. By the way, when will your drama starts airing on TV?"
His mother said as she smiled mischievously and there was some haughtiness in her voice.
Her son was a celebrity now. It was a thing she was proud of.
"It will be in February."
"Can"t it be sooner. I really want to watch it."
"I haven"t even started the shooting yet."
Ren said as he smiled sheepishly.
Arc production had already announced the cast for «The stars above» and it had instantly gotten a place in the real-time search rankings.
Because of the successful broadcast yesterday, it had gotten a good amount of momentum as the Arc production expected.
After the announcement, Ren schedule had also gotten extremely busy as the shooting dates have been confirmed and the script reading session will be next week.
They were also various newspapers and magazines that had wanted to have a interview with him regarding his drama.
Overall, Ren"s life would be extremely tiring from now on but he was not worried about, he rather enjoyed it.

As his talk with his mother finished, Ren entered his room and took a shower.
After the shower, he sat on the chair and opened the internet to look at the various articles about him and «The stars above».
{Xin Ren-The rookie who impressed us all with his stellar performance in «Secret spy» got cast in a romantic drama as the male lead.}
{All the things we know about «The stars above».}
{«The stars above», a drama filled with promising young actors like Chen Mei and Xin Ren.}
Below each article, there were various comments, mostly about him.
-I can"t believe he got cast as a male lead this quickly.
-I thought he would do some more movies and dramas before acting as the male lead.
-Isn"t it too hasty?
-I think that too. Nowadays, everyone in the industry starts from bottom and make their way upwards.
-Xin Ren is trying to fly himself to the top. Lol.
-Why are all the people talking about Xin Ren and not the drama?
-Well, it"s because the drama is a cable drama without any big stars and Xin Ren was promising in yesterday"s Whiz stars.
-I think the drama will surely flop.
-How can you say that when it has not even released?
-Even drama with top stars flop these days, I don"t think Xin Ren can make the drama a hit.
-But his acting in «Secret spy» was spectacular.
-That was a thriller, this is a romantic comedy, a complete different genre.
-I think we should see the drama first before saying anything.
Ren browser through several comments and most of them were saying that he was hasty in being the male lead or how the drama will surely be a flop because of no top stars in it.
Ren didn"t felt disheartened after seeing those comments and people"s reactions because even in his previous life, people have similar reaction to it at first.
They had not thought much about the drama but after the third episode, «The stars above» had drastically improved in his ratings, even becoming the best drama of the first half of the year.
That"s why Ren was not worried about anything and even if there were many people calling him hasty, there were also some who were retorting to them.
Especially, someone with the username of "Mapple". He was constantly retorting to comments criticising him.
Ren felt good that he had a fan who was doing that for him. It means that someone was believing in him.
Someone was believing that he can act as the male lead of a drama and drove it to success.
Ren felt that he should work harder for those fans. That"s why he closed his laptop and brought out the script for «The stars above».
It was the script for the first two episodes and there were many notes in it. Ren had written those as to better understand his character.
Actually the character he was going to play was the same as him but only in situation, their personalities were different from each other and Ren wanted to completely capture it before the script reading session.
And the script reading session was just next week. He don"t have much time left to prepare.
Ren felt excited thinking about it.
