Chapter 42 -042: Exchanging Information
The auditions up front were fast.
With so many people every day, it wasn’t possible to dawdle for too much time.
Liu Su’s sharp gaze had been fixed on Mu Jincheng and Shen Yan the whole time, afraid that their eyes might meet even for a second.
Shen Yan wasn’t a dead person, of course, she could feel the gaze Liu Su was directing at her.
Shen Yan found it a bit amusing.
If she really had no choice but to pick a man, truth be told, she didn’t think much of the likes of Mu Jincheng at all.
A man who could split his pants climbing a tree was simply too weak.
She had no protective desire for that kind of man.
If she absolutely had to choose…
Her mind suddenly flashed with the image of that gracefully tall figure.
Without a doubt,
She would choose him!
It was strange.
She had only met the man once, yet the impression he left was so deep.
She could even remember clearly the slight furrow of his brow and the elegance with which he dined.
Shen Yan’s hand tapped unconsciously on the phone screen, wondering if she should send Qi Si a greeting message.
After all, she had promised Uncle Liu to give him a call, to get along well.
Just as Shen Yan opened her phone and found his number, about to type a message, Liu Su’s voice came from behind, “Miss Shen, it’s your turn.”
Liu Su also touched Shen Yan’s shoulder.
Feeling slightly guilty, Shen Yan flipped her phone over.
She didn’t know why she felt guilty, but she just did so when Liu Su craned his neck over to look.
“Cough.”
Shen Yan coughed, calmly put her phone back in her pocket,
And stood up, making her way to the audition room.
What she didn’t realize was that she had already sent the message.

Overseas.
Qi Si had just finished his washing, wrapped in a towel, his well-defined upper body bare, with muscles perfectly contoured, droplets of water from his black hair sliding down his chiseled face, trickling along the lines of his six-pack into that extremely sexy V-shaped area.
One hand drying his black hair, the other picked up the phone from the table that had just buzzed.
He opened it.
[Everything went smoothly…..]
Qi Si: ???
Looking again at the previous message, he confirmed it was indeed from Shen Yan.
He raised an eyebrow.
Tossed the phone onto the bed.
Didn’t plan on responding.
Roughly towelled his hair dry.
He opened his wardrobe to look for clothes, then turned back to pick up the phone again.
He stared at the message for a while, typing back a reply: What’s up.
This 𝓬ontent is taken from fгeewebnovёl.co𝙢.
Three words.
Cold as frost.
Just like the man himself.
After that, he didn’t pay it any more attention.
Nor did the message provoke any thoughts.

Shen Yan appeared in the audition room.
After a brief pause, someone notified Director Li.
Director Li was next door and soon entered the audition room, a figure looking very stern.
His piercing gaze dissected Shen Yan thoroughly, inspecting her inside and out, repeatedly.
The assistant directors were all dazzled by the young lady who had just appeared and admired how Director Li maintained his serious demeanor.
Indeed, a man fit to be a great director.
Steadfast!
“You’re Shen Yan.”
“Yes.”
“Which part are you auditioning for?” Director Li’s tone couldn’t be considered friendly.
Because in his view, Shen Yan was a typical case of nepotism.
He disliked stars who climbed ranks through their looks.
Moreover, the acting skills of the lady before him were a disaster.
There was no pleasant expression on his face.
Shen Yan smiled and said, “You could pick a scene for me, and I’ll improvise.”
“Huh, that’s bold,” sneered Director Li, no longer bothering to be polite. He chose a silent argument scene with the male lead and instructed Shen Yan to find someone to assist her on the spot.
“No need, there’s no dialogue, I can perform directly into thin air.”
Director Li laughed again, unkindly and mockingly.
Everyone knew that the less dialogue there was, the harder it was to perform.
Moreover, in this scene, Shen Yan had to rely entirely on her expressions!
Only an actor of national first-class level could possibly capture the essence of the role, could Shen Yan, a vase-like female star, even achieve one percent of the essence?
Director Li finally found a reason for this backdoor starlet to know her difficulties and retreat. Without any fuss, he directly had everything prepared.
Shen Yan didn’t look at the script again.
The moment she looked at Director Li, her gaze instantly became the character.
Director Li was taken aback by that majestic yet non-lethal gaze!
The disappointment in the male lead, the frustration of his failures, and in the end, the anger, as well as the resentment for the influence the female lead had on the male lead’s emotions…
She layered the performance, one depth after another.
It was but an instant.
She dragged everyone into the world of her character, letting them feel her intense disappointment.
As soon as the resentment was in place, those eyes that seemed to speak slowly returned to calm.
It was a resigned acceptance of the male lead’s choices and a firm support.
Even at the cost of her own life, she would endorse all of the male lead’s decisions with determination.
The audition room was very quiet.
The real Shen Yan stepped back a few steps and snapped out of character in a second.
Her eyes returned to their usual cool indifference.
Director Li’s eyes were slightly open, looking at Shen Yan in astonishment.
Was this really the Shen Yan he knew?
While the expressive eyes were not particularly complicated, Shen Yan had perfected them.
What did this imply? Shen Yan had a natural talent in this aspect!
Perhaps previous directors rushed through, settling for a brisk shoot without allowing Shen Yan to shine and snatch up the role of the leading lady.
Director Li felt he had been shortsighted for the first time.
“Go back and wait for notification…”
Director Li was ashamed of his prior actions.
He had judged too one-sidedly.
He had discounted Shen Yan’s acting based on the online series alone.
“Do I not need to perform the parts with dialogue?” Aren’t they worried about me not speaking well?
“No need, there are still many others waiting to audition,” Director Li’s tone was much softer this time, drawing curious glances from those nearby.
Director Li was quite pleased with this young lady’s acting.
Was the role of the third female lead set?
Shen Yan nodded slightly to Director Li and the others in acknowledgment.
With so many going in, only Shen Yan had taken a bit longer, causing Liu Su to pace worriedly at the door.
Seeing Shen Yan emerge as usual, Liu Su quickly approached, “How did it go?”
Shen Yan shook her head.
Liu Su frowned, his eyes flashed, then he comforted, “It’s okay, we can look for more suitable roles.”
Perfect, then they wouldn’t have to be in the same production as Mu Jincheng.
Even if rejected, Liu Su wouldn’t trouble the production team.
It was a blessing in disguise.
Over there, Chu Jinghe stood up upon seeing Shen Yan shake her head, looked towards Mu Jincheng, “It seems Shen Yan isn’t confident either.”
To which Mu Jincheng internally remarked that this was to be expected.
With Shen Yan’s poor acting, what confidence could she have?
She only seemed destined to be rejected.
Did she think that dawdling that long would make Director Li lenient?
Shen Yan was too naïve.
“It’s my turn, I’ll go in.”
“Okay, go ahead, good luck!” Mu Jincheng changed his expression in a blink.
As Chu Jinghe walked past, he paused by Shen Yan and said, “Shen Yan, Director Li is always strict. Reflect on your acting, and you’ll have opportunities in the future.”
Shen Yan glanced at him.
Chu Jinghe didn’t wait for her response before going in.
Shen Yan asked Liu Su, “Where to next?”
“Oh, Brendon wants you to come up for another round of promotional shooting.”
“So many promotional shoots for one advert?”
“He always strives for perfection, he might be dissatisfied with some part,” Liu Su explained.
Talking, they entered the elevator and went up to the eleventh floor.
Shen Yan remembered the message she hadn’t sent, pulled out her phone, and saw her own sent message and Qi Si’s response, falling into silence for a spell.
She had meant to ask if everything went well.
Instead, she had accidentally sent it.
Shen Yan edited: “[The phone sent it out when it heated up in my pocket by mistake.]”
“What’s wrong?”
Liu Su noticed the subtle change in Shen Yan’s demeanor, and just as he leaned in closer, Shen Yan put away her phone.
“Nothing, just checking the latest trending topics.”
“Once Miss Shen’s advert is released, it’ll surely hit the trending lists!” Not that Liu Su had confidence in Shen Yan, but he trusted the brand, and even more so, Brendon’s creative genius!
