Watching Song Yuanxi cry, Qiao Lian felt certain emotions that she couldn’t quite place.
Of course, she knew that Song Yuanxi was innocent.
However, it was only a small matter. Crying to this extent served only to make Qiao Lian seem narrow-minded.
It was just a report, wasn’t it?
Nothing about it was real.
She glanced at Shen Liangchuan and saw that he was frowning too. “That’s enough, there’s nothing to cry over.”
Song Yuanxi immediately stopped her sobbing and looked up at Shen Liangchuan nervously.
Shen Liangchuan continued, “Once your Weibo account has been approved in a few days, all that’s needed is a clarification post.”
Song Yuanxi immediately nodded.
He added, “Spend some time reading the script if you’re free these couple of days. Although I recommended you to Director w.a.n.g, it’s up to you to prove yourself. It’s the same for any other vocation—there aren’t many serious workers. The entertainment industry may appear huge, but the director will be able to tell right away if you’re putting your heart and soul into the role.”
Song Yuanxi straightened her posture and nodded earnestly.
Shen Liangchuan had always been lenient with this little sister, who was a few years younger. As she had always been well-behaved, he didn’t need to spend too much effort minding her.
After he spoke, he headed up the stairs. Halfway up, he suddenly recalled something. “The filming crew has organised a press conference for tomorrow. I received a call from Director w.a.n.g today and he has requested that you join them.”
Song Yuanxi was stunned for a moment and immediately looked up happily. Her gla.s.sy eyes lit up with excitement and she nodded enthusiastically. “Yes!”
Xia Yehua lightly grabbed Qiao Lian’s hand. “Xiao Qiao, it’s been a long time since we played a game. Why don’t we play a round or two tonight?”
“Sure,” said a smiling Qiao Lian.
After they all had dinner, Xia Yehua and Qiao Lian settled down and got ready for a game.
Each of them had an iPad and logged into a simple game. It was relaxing and satisfying.
Qiao Lian casually asked as they played, “Mom, is Shen Liangchuan really good at playing games too?”
“I would say so. I remember he once said that he had won the first place for something?”
First place for… what?
Qiao Lian paused briefly and looked up at her questioningly.
Xia Yehua laughed. “I don’t remember clearly now, but I’m quite certain it was during his senior high school years that he got addicted to gaming. Ah, hurry up… which way do we go next?”
Qiao Lian looked down at her screen. “Oh, to the right.”
–
Director w.a.n.g’s film was a youth film.
In this film Song Yuanxi played the male lead’s senior high school crush. Her clean and pure image was a perfect fit for the role.
Director w.a.n.g was a well-known figure in the industry and he loved promoting new faces.
Most of the actors who acted in his movies were now popular celebrities.
Hence, this film’s female lead received much attention.
On the day of the press conference, scores of reporters turned up.
Representing G8ssip News Agency was Su Meimei and another Team One member.
This was considered a good a.s.signment, as this sort of news was easy to get and attracted a large number of readers.
However, when Director w.a.n.g brought Song Yuanxi onto the stage, Su Meimei was shocked.
This- this… wasn’t this Mrs Shen, who had been the focus of attention in the recent scandal?
So, Mrs Shen was also going to join the entertainment industry?
Su Meimei watched Song Yuanxi closely. The minute she saw Song Yuanxi get up to go to the restroom, she stood up quietly and followed behind.
After entering the washroom, she saw Song Yuanxi standing at the mirror touching up her makeup.
She took a step towards Song Yuanxi. “Mrs Shen.”
Like a frightened rabbit, Song Yuanxi jumped and turned around.
Su Meimei immediately smiled. “Mrs Shen, I know you’re Mrs Shen. Don’t be nervous, I mean no harm. I just wanted to tell you that Best Actor Shen has something going with one of the reporters in our news agency.”
