Xia Liangdong said, “How come I didn’t know, when did you go for the audition secretly? This show is a joint production by Starlight and Time Company, why didn’t you tell me beforehand?”

With a coquettish tone, Xia Weiwei said, “I know our family also invested in it, but I didn’t want to take advantage of backdoor connections. Dad, you also know my dream is to enter the entertainment industry, but I don’t want to be criticized as someone who relies on family ties.”

Xia Liangdong was stern-faced.

Liu Ruyan’s voice was full of amusement, “The child wants to try her luck by herself, so you shouldn’t worry too much. There’s nothing wrong with venturing into the entertainment industry. Besides, Weiwei proactively went to audition, it shows she has some ambition. This girl is rarely so passionate about something.”

Xia Liangdong asked, “What role are you playing? Starlight is only a nominal participant in this show, it’s more about courting Shen Shichuan. I haven’t really been keeping track of the progress.”

With pride in her voice, Xia Weiwei declared, “I am the fourth female lead, and have scenes in almost 40 episodes.”

Xia Liangdong said, “It’s quite impressive to secure the role of the fourth female lead in your first show purely based on your abilities. Since you want to enter the entertainment industry, work hard. Your dad will definitely turn you into a top actress.”

“Thank you, Dad,” Xia Weiwei replied with a smile.

Seeing that Yangyang showed no reaction, Xia Weiwei turned to her and asked, “By the way, sister, any plans for this summer vacation, or are you planning to spend all your time in the school library again? You should be careful not to become book-dumb, at your age, it’s important to see the world.”

“Why are you talking to Yangyang like this?” Liu Ruyan reprimanded.

Xia Weiwei said, “I’m just stating facts. She spends every vacation in the library. However, the filming location of ‘Cinderella’s Magic Romance’ is at our university. Sister, we will be able to see each other more often.”

Xia Yangyang glanced at Xia Weiwei, her voice indifferent, “Yes, we should be seeing each other often.”

Xia Yangyang had finished eating. She put down her chopsticks, “I’m done eating. You can continue, I’ll go back to my room.”

As she was leaving, she heard Xia Weiwei complaining, “Dad, I’m sure sister is jealous of my audition success. Do you know, she also secretly auditioned for the show and I caught her red-handed…”

Xia Yangyang didn’t bother to respond and went back to her room.

She took out a stack of scripts from her backpack.

Inwardly Xia Yangyang was surprised, she had never imagined that Xia Weiwei would also be starring in this TV drama.

It seems there could be trouble ahead.

Xia Yangyang could already picture Weiwei’s reaction once she discovered she was the leading lady in the drama.

Just the thought made her head ache.

But Xia Yangyang couldn’t afford to care about that now, once decisions were made, there could be no turning back.

Xia Yangyang stayed at home for two days.

Xia Weiwei, from time to time, would come to annoy her and flaunt her role.

Xia Yangyang didn’t pay any attention to her.

During these two days, Gu Qichen, like always, called her every night.

Their relationship seemed to have returned to calm, but an invisible divide lingered between them.

Every time after the call, Xia Yangyang would sit blankly for a long time.

On the day of joining the crew, Shen Shichuan contacted Xia Yangyang to meet him at Time Company first.

Xia Yangyang thought there might be something urgent, so she went to Time building early in the morning.

Meeting with Shen Shichuan, Xia Yangyang said, “Isn’t today the day to join the crew?”

They had to attend the opening ceremony at 3 in the afternoon, so Xia Yangyang had come early.

Shen Shichuan said, “No rush. Later, you will accompany me to pick someone up. We’ll have lunch together and get acquainted, and then you two will join the crew in the afternoon.”

Xia Yangyang was puzzled, “Pick up who?”

Who could be such a big star to have the president of Time Entertainment picking them up personally?

Shen Shichuan teasingly replied, “The male lead of the show, your future partner for the next three months, you’ll find out once we get there.”

Xia Yangyang was curious.

Until now, ‘Cinderella’s Magic Romance’ hasn’t announced the male and female leads. The secrecy was well-maintained, yet this had caused a fervent guesswork among the public.

Naturally, this was a marketing strategy, the more mysterious it was, the more attention it drew.

Xia Yangyang was also curious. Previously she and Lu Yao had guessed that it might be Ou Ze, the popular young actor under Time Company.

Now Xia Yangyang was even more certain of it..
